John: or I’ll marry you.

Beyond The Gravestones: Chapter 10

“You came back earlier than I deduced you would.” Sherlock said, amused, “And just as drunk, if not more.”

“Git.” John muttered sleepily, and promptly rolled off the sofa. He hit the floor with a thump and lay there, shifting his head to rest it more comfortably.

“All right, John, come on.” he said softly, “Let’s get you sorted out. You’re in no state to sleep on the sofa tonight.”

He leant down and helped John up, slinging John’s arm around his shoulders. He half-carried, half-dragged him to his bedroom and gently dumped him on the bed.

If the romance alluded to isn’t real, it isn’t an allusion to an actual romance. Allusions refer to something, which means by extension, they refer to something that exists--they refer to the actual. If those jokes were allusions to anything, it was to the fact that readers and watchers of Sherlock Holmes have for decades wondered at the relationship between the two men. Once the first series aired, they probably alluded directly to the shippers of this iteration of Holmes and Watson.
