i'm not here to impress you

i’m not here to be perfect or pretty

i’m not dressing up or picking up a brush dictionaries and political correctness abandoned

no please or thank yous or excuse mes cause i’m not here to impress you

barefoot and bare faced messy hair and sweatpants

misspelled and grammatically incorrect soul exposed messy, raw, honest

i’m not here to impress you or me

i just came to be.

Fuelled with post-case adrenaline, Sherlock takes a risk and shows John Watson what he really wants. The pair fall into a whirlwind romance, filled with laughter, cases and lovemaking, but without a solid foundation to build on.

Six months later, John is left in the ruins, wondering where everything went wrong.

======

Rec: I’ve gotta say, I love me some juicy break-up-and-make-up action and this brings it all and then some. I had a hard time putting this one down and was fully engaged from start to finish in the rich and insightful emotion-laden journey.

Tracking a dual timeline between when Sherlock and John first get together and the crisis six months later, the tension is stretched paper-thin with the struggle to stay together on one end, and stay apart on the other. Hurt, regret, and denial battle against attraction, comfort, and emotions that neither man wants but cannot escape. At the same time, with a nasty serial killer case to be solved, our two heroes’ emotional entanglement puts not only their wellbeing and friendship but the very lives of others at stake.

The seemingly effortless balance between the various elements makes this a well appreciated piece of story telling and a thoroughly worthwhile diversion.

I was just starting to feel okay with you finally ignoring me as you should even though it hurts me. I was starting the emotional journey and then you come back and laugh at my jokes again and my ice cold frozen heart does this little fluttering thing and boy am I glad that I did some writing last night so now I’m feeling a little bit stable even though you just pulled one over me.

I also accidentally started watching the Izzie-George arc in Grey’s anatomy. I used to hate it so much but now I can seem to relate to Izzie’s line. My heart also felt tugged when the scene showed Derek choosing Mer regardless of how much he knows it’ll hurt him and idk, I kind of wish one day you might pull a McDreamy to my Meredith. I’d even settle for a McSteamy to my Lexie.

I’m still writing from the 12th floor though.

I have this in my parents, my brothers, my sisters, my daughters, my organizations and in myself. It is a priceless asset to have and one that I do from anyone wanting to benefit from our circle. - @abundancechild #bookofabundance #truthbetold #writingoutloud #dailyabundance #abundancedaily (at The Mothership) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_WBJTxD-Bb/?igshid=1ghsoo5um7gq1

But if I do go ahead and ask myself what I want to be

I think what I most want to be a is a crossfit champion.

An amazing urban dancer.

And a speed swimmer.
