Chapter 14

Johns pov

I woke up at 5:30 AM to find the bed next to me empty. This wasn't that odd as lately sherlock was staying up all night to make sure the police idiots didn't get into trouble.

I got out of bed and pulled on my dressing gown. I left our room to find a living room with only the police. I quickly shook them awake.

"Wake up! Where is sherlock! Did you see him leave!?" Growled John

The shorter cop with the stubbed chin cleared is throat and began "ehem well no.."

"EXACTLY! If you were doing you bloody job then maybe sherlock would actually be here"

I stormed back to my room to find a small note on sherlocks pillow with my name on it.

Inside it said...

Dear John,

I know how much pain I have caused you and I am truly sorry. I have no idea how you found it in your heart to forgive me. I don't even forgive myself.

So what I wanted to tell you is Moriarty wants me. I ruined him. I decide to not be dead. I figured that the best way to keep you safe was to leave. Without me you will be as safe as you were when I was gone.

Do not ask Mycroft where I have gone because he won't tell you. I have specifically told him that if he does, well , I think that's a bit violent. I don't want to leave you but I'm afraid that to save you, I must.

If Moriarty captures me and sends you a ransom DO NOT COME. He will just kill you.

I'm so so sorry John but this is how it needs to be.

Goodbye

I love you

Sherlock Holmes.

I read the note over and over until it became illegible because of all the tear stains.i can't believe he left me. Again. My sadness was now replaced with anger that he broke his promise. And the Sherlock would regret this. What's even worse for him is that I know exactly where he would be.

Sherlock pov

I thought staying at Greg's would be a good idea but apparently not. I soon got a text that read,

"SHERLOCK BLOODY HOLMES! I don't care about my safety I care about you. Get away from Greg and get home NOW. -JW"

I knew I had to obey so to not make it worse. I got home to find John sitting in my chair caressing it as though he would never see it again. Although judging by his face, I knew that was quite possibly.

John slowly stood up, grabbed his suit case and started to walk towards me. No past me.

I quickly grabbed his arm before he got to the door.

"Jawn please don't go" I said as tears started to stream down my face.

"Why sherlock. It seems quite easy for you to leave me. I just want you to know how it feels"

He yanked his arm from my grasp and stalked out the door. I looked around and notice the police still here

"WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT!" I roared "GET OUT! I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!"

The quickly scampered of and I collapsed against the door.
