Sherlock's POV

I looked at her through the tinted black plane window, trying my best to hold back the tears I had left before she was covered by the London clouds. And she was gone. The woman I loved, I lost in 30 minutes. I leaned back in the jet chair and sighed, running my fingers through my knotty and fluffed up hair, trying to smooth it down a bit.

I did this for the safety of John, Mary and (Y/N), and it was worth it. That was what I kept telling myself; so why did it feel so wrong? The last time that I left (Y/N) alone she was a wreck, never left her flat, never talked to anyone, she was... broken. And soon I would be as well. When I left her, I knew that I had feelings for her, but I tried to block them out, knowing that sentiment was a chemical defect found on the losing side; now, I don't care if I'm losing. In fact, I was thinking of marrying her, which I'd never thought I'd even think about doing. Having children with her, making mini geniuses, spending the rest of our lives together, that sappy shit.

Then I had to go and fuck it all up.

Suddenly, next to me, my phone rings and I see the caller ID as Mycroft. I roll my eyes and pick it up, waiting a second before pressing the green button.

"Mycroft?"

"Hello, little brother. How is the exile going?" Mycroft's voice speaks surprisingly clearly over the phone, as we are thousands of feet in the air.

"I've only been gone four minutes."

"Well, I certainly hope you've learned your lesson. As it turns out, you're needed."

"Oh, for God's sake. Make up your mind. Who needs me this time?" I roll my eyes and talk in an exasperated tone, adjusting in my chair and involuntarily smirking a bit because I might be going back home. And if I'm needed, them (Y/N) is needed, which means... there's a case.

There's a long pause, and my hand begins to shake as I physically feel the turn of the jet, and I finally knew that we were going home. "England." His voice comes up once again in an emotionless tone, his voice beginning to crack over the phone. Smirking, I hung up the phone and looked out the window, the milky clouds still covering my view of the ground.

That was a quick turn around.

--- Hey guys! There's a time skip here and I'm going to NOT do the Abominable Bride because in my opinion it's not super relevant to my plot line [sorry if you wanted it don't get butthurt {MAYBE I'LL DO A SPECIAL EPISODE WHEN THE FANFIC ENDS}] ---

The jet lands with a harsh jerk, but I barely even wait until it's on the ground until I shoot out of my seat, getting ready to rush towards the door. It came to a slow stop, and the door to the jet opens with a loud woosh, making me take the first step towards the door, but the Captain stopped me.

"Sir, wait!" I pushed past her and darted down the steps, seeing John and Mary standing next to each other, looking in the direction of the jet. Where is she?

I started running towards the both of them, looking around everywhere, my eyes darting back and forth, causing me to become dizzy. And that's when I saw her. 

Crouched down to the side of the car with Mycroft standing by her side, kneeling down and rubbing her back while John and Mary stood, staring at her and mouthing words inaudible to me. I couldn't see her face, her hair was covering it because she held it in front of it, nails scratching her scalp roughly as she gripped onto her hair.

"(Y/N)!" I called out, not caring about my dizziness and taking to a full on sprint to get to her. Her head twitched up a little but other than that she barely moved. As I got closer and closer to her I realized her whole body was shaking, probably crying, and my heart stopped. I called out her name again when I finally reached her, kneeling down beside her and gripping both her shoulders. 

"Sherlock..." she croaked out, her voice a broken mess of tears and anger; the grip on her hair loosened as she brought herself to look up at me. "H-he... h-he's..."

"I know..." I whispered, bringing her closer and untangling her from her ball, knees tucked in and arms shaking. "I know..." She looked up at me with her crystalline (e/c) eyes, glazed over slightly and red-rimmed with a single tear running down her left cheek. She sobbed quietly as I brought my hand up to her face, wiping the tear as she collapsed into me. I held her tightly, and suddenly I found myself beginning to cry as well.

"Shhh..."

"I'm so scared, Sherlock... I'm s-so scared."

"Shhh... it's okay. I won't let him hurt you." I looked up at everyone else as well. "And he won't hurt any of you either, I'm sure of it." I said loudly so everyone around me can hear. Everyone's eyes snapped towards mine, looking at me with confusion and sadness.

"How can you be sure?" Mycroft inquired.

"Because he's dead. He shot himself in the back of the head."

"B-But he's on every screen in London." John stuttered, standing up from (Y/N)'s side and looking towards me.

"Y-you think it was a prerecorded message?" She asked, her voice still broken but the tears beginning to subside when I held her out in front of me with both shoulders. I gave her a reassuring smile and tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, and she gave me a tight-lipped smile back at me.

"Precisely." I nodded sharply, taking her hand and making her stand upright, placing a gentle kiss on her cheek. She smiled and pulled me into a tight hug, taking into account the fact that I was actually going to stay, and for a long time as well. I returned the favor and hugged her back, kissing her neck and her cheeks when she began to pull out.

"And I know exactly what he's going to do next."
