alternate-universe fanfiction feels holmes johnlock lgbt love sherlock slowbuild watson

What if the perfect duo of Holmes and Watson had met differently? What if John had been hired by Mycroft to look after his little brother? What if...

"Mr. Holmes," John exclaimed with astonishment written across his features. "You can't be serious."

"This isn't complicated, I assure you. All that I'm requesting is for you to befriend my brother and become his flat-mate. You will still have your regular life. Your past with the MI-6 will become rather useful with protecting Sherlock from harm with his array of detective work and crime fighting."

John couldn't ignore the way his heart's jumped at the last part. He struggled to keep his face straight and look at this rationally.

"And what if your brother doesn't like me? We might not be friends." 

Mycroft sighed. "Then I will remove you from this job and ask someone else to try," he replied smoothly.

John was going to reject the offer when Mycroft interrupted.

"Mr. Watson, I am aware that you want something more then your dull civilian life. This is the offer that you've been waiting for."

Still uncertain, John wavered. He decided to at least take a look at the file Mycroft handed him seconds ago. Nothing caught his eye as he flitted mindlessly through the pages. Then his eyes landed on the photo and John's breath caught in his throat. His sharp cheekbones and impossible eyes were undeniably the ones of the breath-taking man he had bumped into on the street earlier.All Rights Reserved

The detective and his blogger start drifting away after the marriage of Dr. Watson. When an unfortunate accident happens, it brings them closer than ever. No matter how platonic Watson and Holmes think their relationship is in the beginning; no one can deny the unmistakable spark between them. A spark on the verge of being blown into a dangerous flame. Sherlock and John are stuck in Baker Street, neither of them wanting to leave each other. As John spends more and more time with his flat-mate, he realizes that he desperately needs Sherlock to get over the death of his wife.

Kleptomaniac (A Johnlock Fanfiction) [2015 Wattys Award Winner] by queen_mycroft

John's never seen a kid like him. He has this beautiful, crazy grace - withheld behind a smug smile and wisecracks that make John frustrated in so many different kinds of ways. And his eyes; crystal clear, decisive, cleaning through the unimportant things to find the valuables in life. He may or may not have a thing for smoking and James Bond, his favorite ice cream is mint with a chocolate swirl, and he is absolutely addicted to Pop Rocks and toffee. He enjoys pretty boys and warehouses, where he can hoard and think and be alone. Also, bumper cars, and John Watson. But Sherlock Holmes's thing, his niche, his calling in life... is to steal. Books. Wallets. Phones. Cars. Everything you've ever wanted, he's had. Everything you've ever wished for, he's stolen. Everything you are, everything you told yourself that you weren't, he owns, and he plays you like an out-of-tune violin. Does that mean that John's going to let him steal his heart? Not a shot in hell.

A Universe of Possibilities - Teenlock/Johnlock/Mystrade by lilyinthesky

John Watson just wanted to run away from his abusive home life. He did not intend to get caught by the police, and ultimately be sent to a school for troubled teenagers. He had no idea that he would meet someone there who would change his life forever. Sherlock Holmes just wanted to cure his boredom, and Mycroft Holmes just wanted to protect his brother. Neither of them imagined they'd get caught up in a drug bust, earning them both a spot at Baskerville's School for Troubled Teens. And neither of them expected to meet anyone they actually liked at this school. Nobody expected to fall in love. Nobody expected to be wanted for murder. Life is full of surprises. *Includes johnlock, mystrade, an exciting plot, and lots of Sherlock-Mycroft sibling rivalry*

johnlock: forgive and forget by sophisticatedmeow

//COMPLETED//JOHNLOCK// Sherlock is gay. John isnt gay. Or his he? What would you do for your best friend who's supposedly dead? Would you forgive him? If you forget something can you revive that memory just as easy as forgetting it? A/U no Mary, Sherlock's mind palace is a bit more... sophisticated. A few plot twists I guess and I wouldn't read this if you get triggered easily. This is your warning. If it's really triggering i will put a warning on the chapter. there is a use of offensive slurs in it so if you feel uncomfy with that don't read this. There is also some smut implications but I won't actually write any smut as like just no. People know me in this app :) Andd this is my first johnlock story or any fanfic for that matter so please don't be to mean and try to ignore any loose threads I may leave! And please comment and vote so I know you like the story! Love you all 💚

Falling For You by bibliosoph

Sherlock Holmes is not a very social man. He's a consulting detective and the only one in the world, so by the process of elimination, that makes him the best. However, being such a detective doesn't leave much time for friends, or even romance. Well, until he meets John Watson. John Watson is a soldier who has just returned from war. He has a psychosomatic limp and he misses the war, even if he doesn't care to admit it. Naturally, when the possibility of sharing a flat with the world's only consulting detective arises, he jumps at the chance and instantly befriends the strange character. But it friendship the furthest that Sherlock and John are willing to go with each other? Or is the world-famous detective deducing new things about himself?

Chemical Disaster {JOHNLOCK} by GryffindorPancakee

"Detective Holmes, does your job ever cause you troubles that might lead to consuming drugs?" "I never have troubles with my job." Sherlock said, holding John's penetrating gaze without flinching. "Neither family issues, nor anything related with your job. Perhaps unrequited love, then?" *** Sherlock Holmes relies on many things to keep his supreme mind rational. Murder cases, for instance, provide him the adrenaline required to persist in sanity without falling into an abyss of dullness. Morphine serves as a tranquilizer for his untamable fact processing brain. Cocaine is a fine source of dopamine and fills in the hole of emptiness dug by the lack of intellectual crimes. To an outsider, he would fit labels like drug addict, sociopath, maniac, freak, but Sherlock thought he had attained a fairly satisfying equilibrium in life. But that was until he his brother stepped in, and John Watson became his therapist... And his flatmate. And a very alarming problem. ⚠️ Warning : mentions of drugs

Nᴏᴛ Gᴀʏ {Tᴇᴇɴ/Jᴏʜɴʟᴏᴄᴋ} by shiterature

My addition to the fandom is out - and so is John. - In the year 1997, John Watson finds himself at an interview for a job he doesn't need, and then at the same location of a new university flatmate that he initially doesn't want. Meanwhile, Sherlock Holmes is trying to debunk the Scotland Yard's incorrect description of what is actually a group of mass-murders revolving around a small memory-wiping pill. Mr. Holmes needs an assistant, and Mr. Watson needs a companion. Little do either of them know how much they specifically need one another. [I wrote this when I was early in my teenage years. Keeping it up because you like it, but keep in mind it may be riddled with potentially less-than-decent content. Happy reading!]

Lost Girl 🔍 (Sherlock x Reader) [EDITING] by Existentialism6

You and John Watson were old flames back in your high school year. Thankfully, when you broke up, you still remained friends. That was, until the year of the war came around. While John went to war, you began to tend to your dying sister, who you knew only had a few more years. John and you kept in touch, but the letters started to get more and more infrequent as the war began to get more and more brutal. After your sister died, you moved to London, hoping for a fresh start and to eliminate any memories of your her. The next thing you know, three people get murdered right before your eyes, and guess who shows up to inspect? John Watson. And his friend, Sherlock Holmes. You took a liking to Sherlock, despite his arrogance and sociopathic tendencies, and you slowly begin to see his feelings that he hides underneath his shell. When he sees how clever you are, Sherlock also takes a liking to you, but tries his hardest to hide it. He knows that sentiment is a chemical defect found on the losing side. Now you, Sherlock and John Watson are solving cases together, but what happens when the person you fear most shows up and starts to torment John and Sherlock.
