He found himself pouring a whiskey and downing it within a couple of seconds. John had a loyal, accepting nature, but now and again he allowed himself to get bloody pissed off about life. And why shouldn’t he?
He thought about calling Emma, but then decided against it. Her words at the pub were, “Why don’t you just marry him then? He’s all you talk about. I honestly don't think I should see you again, John.” Her tone had been mocking and final.
There seemed to be a pattern emerging whenever he was with Sherlock.
Pain, anguish, more pain.
More hiding of emotions.
More repression.
More lies.
More hidden glances.
Suffering in silence. Wanting more from that man. Anything more.
He couldn’t understand what it was about his flatmate that kept drawing him in like a moth to a flame. These emotions were completely irrational.
He couldn't help it if Sherlock was all he talked about. Sherlock was his life now. Before Sherlock, nothing had ever happened in John’s life following the army.
His eyes flickered to the clock and he sighed, clenching his left fist in the way he always did when he was stressed.
