I believe in you - Sherlock Fanfiction.
[Sherlock x Female OC] The thing is, there is an empty, gaping hole at the base of John's throat where his overwhelming guilt and periodic bouts of torturous grief used to be. It would be so easy to... to be angry and punch a hole through the wall, through the foam of his pillow -- drive his fist through Sherlock's heart. But he remembers; in the most tragic and inopportune of fashion, remembers how angry he had been when Sherlock had jumped, how furious he had been at his funeral, and how it hadn't stopped him from breaking down at his grave nonetheless. The thing about his anger is this: it does nothing but leave him behind in the end, a bundle of nerves and frailty in his bones and an unsteady sway to his gait. It does nothing at all, but reduce marginally the constant, suffocating oppressiveness of his days bleeding into one another with a burst of adrenaline. The thing about his anger is this: it doesn't give him back Sherlock. So he gets a new flatmate- a woman named Holland. They were great friends at school and in fear he would be lonely again after Sherlock died he started to meet up with her, and soon, she moved in with him. They're just friends, though. No one could have a bond with John like Sherlock did. Sherlock was his best friend. But then Sherlock returns, and John is more furious than ever at him. Also, Sherlock and Holland seem to bond quite well, which is something Sherlock finds too complicated to explain itself.Complete

The Crimson Curator | (Sherlock x Fem!Reader)
[PUBLISHING PAUSED UNTIL WRITING COMPLETION!] The art world is a place of beauty and inspiration, but also of hidden secrets. A corpse is found in one of the most unusual circumstances Greg Lestrade has ever seen, which means only one thing; it's straight to 221b Baker Street. Sherlock has never been very good around people or very used to it, let alone someone who seems to be on his wavelength. So what happens when one of John's best friends moves into town? Well, Sherlock finds himself in and amidst a new case, of course. But what does any of this have to do with an art gallery? Well... --- This book covers themes of a slightly mature nature; mentions of blood etc, much like a Sherlock episode and therefore may contain strong language. But if you want to experience the detective in action, then you've come to the right place. (I do not own the characters or IP of Sherlock nor claim to.)
