Summary: It’s a Tuesday morning, eleven months afterward. John has begun counting days as though Sherlock has set time, has set a brand new calendar. And how morbidly amusing, that the man still dictates even the most mundane aspects of his life. He’s more than aware that it’s incredibly unhealthy that his brain works in this funny way but knowing isn’t going to stop him from continuing on in that manner, so... so...Her name is Maribeth and she’s...she’s something.

Summary: John is about to change Sherlock's life forever. But Sherlock has some changes planned too. Can all the wrongs ever be set right? How do you really know when someone loves you? Especially someone as dark and difficult as Sherlock. 

Sure! First of all, check out my Friendship, Bromance and Teenlock tags. There’s lots of good stuff there! A few of my favorite friendship fics are: 

The Long Drive—“Sherlock, John, and Lestrade on a road trip together, stuck in the same car for hours."

The World On His Wrist—“First, he is shot in Afghanistan. Second, he wakes to a phone call in Chelmsford, Essex. Third is pain, fourth is normalcy, fifth is agony and sixth is confusion. By the eighth, he’s lost track.”

Share and Share Alike—“Prompt: So, in ‘Two Weeks Notice’ there is a scene where he and Sandra Bullock are having lunch at a restaurant and they go through this little ritual of picking the bits that they don’t like out of each other’s salads. They do it without thinking, like they’ve done it so many times before they don’t even notice. I’d like to see this scene, or something like it, with John & Sherlock. Even if it’s not an established “romantic" relationship - just something that’s so ridiculously couply that they do without even batting an eye."

It’s Not the Violin—“Somewhere between Alejandro and the fistfight, John Watson became someone Sherlock Holmes would kill for."

the word turns, nothing is ever new (except the adventures and the sound of that heartbeat)—“‘You’re wondering what happened.’ Holy shit, he sounds just like John remembers. Deep, calm. It’s like nothing ever happened. It’s like everything’s the same as it had always been. Somehow, that’s not okay at all. To collapse time — to erase the past, erase his pains; that’s not okay. Here he stands again, alive, as if things will be the same. As if death can be stared down."

The Green Blade—“As a serial killer hits the headlines, the police are out of their depth and the next victim is out of time. With faith in Sherlock Holmes at an all time low, this is a case which will push loyalties to the limit."

Empty Houses—“What’s on here is a body, and that body can be useful to me. If it’s difficult for you to see, then in the future you can wait outside."

And two great Teenlock fics are:

The Dangerous Book for Boys—“There is already someone sitting at the opposite end of the table, but there are books and slides and petri dishes spread out across the length of it, in all directions. There is an unlaced man’s shoe sitting on the edge. There does not appear to be a foot attached to it."

That afternoon, there was only you—"And well, here they were now. Swimming in the canal, at Sherlock’s whim. John would always indulge him."

Summary: Sherlock takes a remarkably early retirement at 47, and convinces John that a change of pace would do them both good. They buy an old cottage on the South Downs, and exchange their nonstop life in Baker Street for quiet contemplation, bee studies, and book writing. They might go completely insane, but sometimes it takes stepping outside of the life you're living to find the life you want.

Summary: It’s the fall of 2000, and to help him out after his military career has ended due to injury, John Watson’s sister Harriet gets him a job as US tour manager for rising star of the industrial scene and enfant terrible, Sherlock Holmes. Sherlock’s not long out of rehab and there are plenty of doubts as to whether he’s serious about recovery. Plus, the music industry is shaking in its boots over the Napster mess. All John has to do is keep the money coming in and make sure his star doesn't screw things up. After the army, that should be easy, right?

Summary: Sherlock knows that John sleeps with men. That much is obvious. What Sherlock doesn't know is whether or not John likes to fuck them or be fucked or if he likes to pull hair or leave teethmarks or if he likes being on his knees or if he likes forcing people onto their backs. Sherlock doesn't know if John wants to fuck Sherlock, of all people.
