Prompt: Sherlock


Lestrade looks horrified. He also looks angry, betrayed, and John has no moment to spare. He liked Lestrade, but—well. He likes Sherlock more. Sherlock is bright in a world of drab, and John wants to keep him. Lestrade is too clever for his own good. He's caught on and won't look the other way, so John smiles at him, shushes him, and stabs him in the gut.

Lestrade will simply be another victim of Moriarty, and Scotland Yard's best man is gone.

Sherlock is not quite safe yet, but it's a step closer.
