Every morning Sherlock reads the newspaper. One day, he skims through the wedding announcements. And stops.
Just stops everything.
Stops willing his heart to beat.
Stops trying.
Stops living.
And he wills the world to stop along with him.
Because he waited so long, and there it is.
John Watson and Mary Morstan.
*
He doesn't sleep anymore. Why would he try? When he knows that John is in bed with her, and she makes him happy, happier than he ever could, and he loves her and they cuddle at night and have sex and are doing all the things they should be doing.
Does she know about Sherlock? Does she know that he used to do that? Used to make John laugh and smile and orgasm. He did. He really used to.
It was supposed to be John and Sherlock till the end.
John and Sherlock
This is the end.
