Unexpected Love

Chapter 1 - Unexpected Feelings

John's POV:

"John?"

"Hmm?", I asked and looked up my newspaper.

"Where's my phone?", Sherlock asked me without looking up

"It's in your jacket pocket, where you always have it."

He put out his hand, which was a request for me getting his phone to him.

"Thanks", he mumbeled as I gave him the phone.

He typed a long text, I supposed he had found the answer to the case we had been working on...or he had been working on, I didn't know much about the case, he was mostly solving the cases. He was really smart and his power of deduction was very impressive. I was really admiring this man.

"So, you solved the case?", I asked him when he finished typing.

"Yes, I did. It was so obviously the caretaker. "

"The caretaker?!" That was the last person I would have thought about.

He explained me everything, and then it made all sense. I was really impressed, I would never have thought like he did. He always solved the most hopeless cases, made the most insane conclusions but in the end he was always right. I had never knew someone with that power of deduction.

While I had been thinking, I was staring at him. He noticed that, so he asked: "John, is everything alright? Why are you staring at me?"

"What? Oh yes, sure. I was just...I am...I....um.... " The words that were coming out of my mouth made no sense and I felt that I was about to turn red.

"I'm just gonna take a shower now", I said and rushed out the room.

When I was at my room, I took my towel. I noticed that my hands were shaking and I couldn't think straight.

Only when I was standing under the shower, I slowly calmed down and I could think clearly again.

'Why did I turn red, I wasn't doing something bad. I was just...staring at that wonderful man.'

I hold my breath.

'Have I just thought "wonderful"? My god, what's happening with me?"

Sherlock's POV:

'What did just happen to John?', I thought. He had been staring at me for a while, and when I had called his attention on it he blushed. He had tried to hide it, but I saw it nevertheless.

'Did he have....any feelings? Feelings for....me?'

Quickly I thrusted the thoughts aside, this was totally ridiculous.

I haven never had a friend, and John was more than just a friend, he had been my first best friend, and I would've never thought that I would have a friend. I coulnd't imagine anyone liking me, I was a really....demanding person who wasn't easy to be friends with.

For me it was diffcult to deal with other people, which made me not much likealble to other people...but John was different, John accepted me like I was, with all my weird behaviors.

It was a new experience being liked, and as I was thinking about John, a thought struck me.

'Did John mean more to me than just a best friend?'
