This is the first ficlet I have written for Sherlock, it was a request. Go easy on me! I have this idea to tweek this story according to Constructive reviews I receive and I will post the re-do in another chapter. Same story, improved. You guys wanna help me get better so I can write more stories for you in the future?
Homecoming
John walked into the flat. He didn't bother switching the light on, he wasn't going to stay for long.
"Hello, John."
Keys clattered to the floor as he spun around to face the voice. "Sherlock?"
His voice shook, it couldn't be, I buried him!
"Obviously." The light flickered on revealing Sherlock standing in the walkway. His curly hair was tidy and his clothes were recently pressed, his trademark trench coat was draped across his left arm. He looked fine. For some reason that really pissed John off.
"Get out."
Shocked "W-wh-"
"Out of my flat!"
"John I-"
Watson pulled his gun from its holster and clicked off the safety. "If you don't leave, I will pull the trigger."
For once the genius was speechless. "I-I thought you would be relieved." He stammered.
"Relieved? ReLIEVED!? I watched you fall to the sidewalk! I saw the blood ooze out of your head! I BURIED YOU DAMNIT! I buried you." Tears escaped the doctors eyes. The gun remained trained on the man, "I thought for sure I wasn't going to bury you. Do you know how many people, how many friends that I have seen the life drained out of? I thought that for sure I wasn't going to bury you, Sherlock. Not you. You were too clever."
The worlds only consulting detective sat there defeated by words of his only friend. "I didn't think-. I didn't know-. I'm sorry, John." Still surprised that John wasn't happy to see him.
John lowered the gun and burst out laughing. A real laugh. For the first time in a long time, he lost control. Sherlock doesn't know something? Something important?"Tell me something, Sherlock, who did I bury?"
Sherlock ignited. "Well you see..."
Leave me a review, should I give up writing for this fandom? :)
