Confessions of love. (Johnlock)
“I love you John. I always have and i always will.”
Sherlock said theses words with such certainty in his voice it made John’s heart stop beating.
John didn’t know what to say. He wanted to scream and throw glasses against the wall. He wanted to cry and run into Sherlock’s arms. It was all too much, with the his marriage to Mary and his baby on the way, he didn’t know what to do.
John takes in a shaky breathe and looks up into Sherlock’s perfect green eyes. “Sherlock. I..I.. Mary and th.. the baby.”
Sherlock steps closer towards john, they’re almost touching. When the taller man looks down at John, it takes everything inside of him not to come crashing down. He could smell Sherlock’s woody vanilla scent, the smell that reminded john of home. Looking up at him, all he wanted to do was to kiss Sherlock's soft lips, show him that he’s loved back, just as much.
“Sherlock” John barely whispered.
“I’m scared. So much is happening all at once. The baby is almost here and i don’t know what will happen if ... Just know that I love you. God i love you more than anything I've ever loved before. And when you left for those 2 years, Mary was there and i had no one else... But I’ve never stopped loving you, not even for the slightest of seconds.” John spoke softly.
Tears welled in their eyes as they gazed at each other.
Sherlock placed his hand on john’s cheek and brought his face closer to his. Their eyes fluttered closed as they leaned in slowly to each other. When their lips finally connected it wasn’t rushed or intense but it was slow and certain as they knew this had to be something to hold on to. John wraps his arms around Sherlock's lean waist as Sherlock hands pulled his face closer. They can feel each others lips against their own, the soft movement of smooth lips confessing years of unspoken love and longing.
As they pull away, the faint blushes on their cheeks and the loud thuds of their hearts, they knew the other was all that matter in this moment.
They didn’t know what is going to happen or how things will change, but as long as they remember they are loved, all will be well
