Today Sherlock and John were going to college. They were both going to be in Biology and Chemistry classes together but John took Maths and PE while Sherlock took Physics and psychology, so they would be separate then. They didn't have to wear a uniform anymore and though they were going to the same school, new kids would be in their classes due to changing for the sixth form.

They both dressed in the morning and John said to Sherlock "You're not sore I hope?"

"No. I think we've both adjusted well to our intimacy not to be too sore anymore." Sherlock said.

John smiled and finished lacing his shoes. He looked up and found Sherlock still had his shirt unbuttoned. The genius was focussing on putting the cufflinks on at that moment.

John gently batted his hands away and did them for him. Then he ran his hands over Sherlock's bare chest and pressed a chaste kiss to his collarbone before he did the buttons up.

They shared a lingering kiss when they were both ready and Sherlock took John's hand and the couple made their way to sixth form.

When they arrived they stood side by side and were put into tutor groups. They were luckily together in tutor, and had found out that they were also in Biology and Chemistry classes together too.

They had three classes that day, the first for John was Maths, and the first for Sherlock was Physics. They departed and went to their separate classes.

Sherlock sat in physics; he only had to correct the teacher four times, which was quite a good start. The students in his class were all incredibly boring, some had a few interesting lives, but he wasn't entertained for long. In the end he just read ahead in his textbook and finished the homework while listening to the teacher witter on.

In Maths John was having a more enjoyable time. He did feel a little odd not having Sherlock's hand to hold on to, but he was alright, they'd be together in only about an hour.

Surprisingly, the maths teacher was nice, for a first lesson she did 'building bridges' exercises. John new barely anybody in his class, he recognised a few faces but most were new.

One girl, Vickie, was very friendly during the games. She seemed like quite a touchy, huggy person and she was very chatty to John.

At the end of the class she told him that they were both in the same tutor group. They walked to the room together and once they were in she said "Why don't we sit near the back?" and when she heard no reply she turned to find her new friend (though she hoped he would become more than a friend) and found him near the front. There was a tall boy sat on a desk and John stood in front of him, the taller boy had his legs wrapped around John's waist and their hands were linked between them as they conversed quietly.

"How was your first lesson?" John asked and they rested their foreheads together.

"Boring, but I learnt new things so it wasn't so bad." Sherlock said.

"Good." John smiled and they shared a small kiss. Sherlock unwound his legs from around John's waist and they sat down together at the front. The rest of the class entered and the tutor did as well.

Vickie went to John and bent a little low to whisper to him "You're... gay?" she asked.

John looked up at her "Yes."

"Why didn't you tell me?" she frowned.

"I don't generally go round saying 'Hi, my name's John, and I'm gay' as an introduction." John said.
