I couldn't lose John. I refused to admit that I could. We were a small gathering, Mrs. Hudson, drying her eyes, Molly, patting her on the back, Mycroft and Lestrade, trying to comfort me, and Irene Adler? What was she doing here. Mycroft made a face as she sat next to me. "You finally realized it." She smiled. " I knew it from the day I met you." " You love John Watson, and you always will." I almost cried. It reminded me of that case when my heart was broken because Irene has opened my eyes to the way John would never love me. I turned to face her. " Get out." I practically shouted. "You have no right!" Tears fell down my face. "You-you didn't know him." I dropped my voice and sat down. She grabbed her bag from the chair and scampered out of the room. Mycroft was holding Lestrade's hand and had his arm around my shoulders with his other arm. "Brother dear." He started. "Don't." I said. "You can't fix what happened. No one can fix it. But he might be alive." "And he could be." I thought. There's always hope.
