“The fact you endured three years of hell on earth to get back to this flat means that you valued enough of your life before the suicide to come back at all. So feel free to bitch at me, bully me, hurt me, shut me out and hide from me –it won’t fucking matter if you do, because I am unwilling to let you go a second time.” A story in which John and Sherlock struggle to become what they’ve always been, Mycroft interferes, and an unforeseen obstacle climbs out of the rubble to threaten everything that they’ve all worked for. Eventual Johnlock, Post-Reichenbach, Mature rating. Love this because of the maturity, the angst and the just well written and characterized loveliness of it all. ANGST ANSGST!!! Words: 60565 Chapters: 12/12
This is a bit on the longer side but OMG it fits all the bills!!!!
