A Martin Freeman Fanfiction
As season 5 of Sherlock is being filmed, Winter, an assistant director, sees herself romantically involved with Martin Freeman, only if he was not so complicated...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm not John Watson," I remember him saying on the first actual date we had, which was, naturally, not in a public place, but at his flat over a romantic dinner and a proper cup of tea.
"Sorry?" I panicked, thinking I must've accidentally called him John Watson, though I hadn't.
"I just want you to know that I'm not John Watson and I'm not Bilbo Baggins, and I'm definitely not Tim Canterbury."
"As long as you're not Lester Nygaard, I'm good," I joked, but he didn't laugh.
"Listen, Winter. This is important. People come to me thinking I'm this nice Dr. Watson sort. I'm not. I'm really not. I'm my own guy. I'm not like the characters you've seen me play."
when John Watson bumps into an old friend and gets introduced to a hot detective, he instantly falls in love. yet he's unaware of the complicated and broken Sherlock Holmes. is John prepared, or does he fall apart too?
