Title: Good Watson’s Only Selfish Action
Pairing: Sherlock/John
Rating: M
Summary: Life has been a steady stream of murder and intrigue as usual at Baker Street, until John decides to leave and marry Mary Morstan, a schoolteacher whom Sherlock considers beneath his notice. Sherlock deduces that the only thing Mary can offer John that he cannot is sex. In an attempt to keep John at their flat and by his side, he decides to give him just that. This takes place after “The Reichenbach Fall” and contains series two spoilers. Third person limited POV (Sherlock’s).
Warnings: manipulation, sexual themes
Author’s notes: Thanks to the lovely Lit_Luminary for beta reading this story. The title refers to a quote from the The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier: “The good Watson had at that time deserted me for a wife, the only selfish action which I can recall in our association. I was alone.” Concrit is welcome.
Disclaimer: I don’t own these characters, I just like them.
