To Be So Young And In Love

Chapter 57

Disclaimer: I don't own Sherlock or anything.

Author's note: Please review! Thank you!

Another disclaimer: I also don't own the song 'The Most' by 'Jon Troast'. I found it today when I spent ages looking for a wedding song! Nothing fit with them that I didn't think was too soppy! It was hard to find, but I like this and I think it's quirky and lovely enough for John and Sherlock. It's also domestic and childlike, another reason I thought it suited them for, as all they've ever known is being together, living together and such. Anyway, I hope you like the song, it's on YouTube and iTunes! As is the second song in this chapter, which is 'All I want is you' by 'Barry Louis Polisar'.

Everyone was in the Holmes' garden. There was a large white gazebo with tables and chairs everywhere. Most of the tables were circular but Sherlock, John, their parents and siblings were sat at the head table which was straight and long.

Sherlock and John sat in the middle, side by side. They spent so long just chatting together, giggling. They leant against each other and shared little kisses. This was their day. "So, where are you going on the honeymoon?" Harry queried.

"Italy" John smiled.

"Ah, very nice!" Harry smiled.

"We know." John grinned.

There was no best man speech, as they didn't have one, but their dads and mums had all stayed up one night and written a speech together. Ron had a loud and rich voice so he had been nominated to read it by the other three. He stood up and cleared his throat as everyone was finishing off their food.

"Afternoon." He said with a smile.

"This is from me, Kathy, Julie and Alan, to our newlywed children." He announced and mainly looked at Sherlock and John but occasionally he looked over at other people. Sherlock was leaning into John, who had an arm around him.

"Right. When you were first born, and in the hospital crib you reached out for each other's hands you made all of our hearts melt. We thought... well, we knew, you two were going to be special, together, as friends, maybe. You were inseparable from the start. You used to make us all chuckle with your shenanigans. Even as toddlers we'd find you in an empty bath covered in blankets, claiming it to be your ship, you had so many little adventures as you grew up." Ron smiled.

"When you were five you proudly became boyfriends, your little faces projected happiness and we watched you grow and become Sherlock and John. It always seems to sound odd if you say one of your names and it isn't followed by the other." Sherlock and John smiled.

"You always make us very proud; you're good and an extraordinary pair. To have watched you grow up together and watch your love for each other also grow day by day has been our privilege. We wouldn't have missed a second of it!" Ron said with a hand on his heart.

"So, you go out into that big world now, as husbands, have more of those adventures, bigger, better adventures! Be that extraordinary pair that you have always been! We love you both more than words can say, you make us so proud every single day. As when you were five, don't ever let anyone tell you not to do something. Remember how you fought to be allowed to hold hands in school, so much so that we had to change schools for you, always remember that, that was a good day. We know that with each other you are safe, and thank you for giving us that. To Sherlock and John!" Ron raised his glass and everyone toasted to them

The tables soon got moved away and it was time for John and Sherlock's first dance.

It had been tiresome to find the wedding song, but in the end they settled on a song they both loved. They went to the centre of the grass and everyone watched with a fond smile quietly.
