    [The rustle of fabric and a soft, tired sigh.]

    John: Hellouuu! Ugh, that did not sound convincingly cheerful. Not that it matters. Not that anyone's gonna hear this anyway. I don't know why I'm even… It's 3am for God's sake. On a Wednesday! I think. Wait, no, Thursday. Gosh, I can't even tell which day we're having.

    Summary

    Sometimes, John finds that he’s frustrated with himself for struggling so terribly with it all. It’s not as if they’d known each other for very long in the grand scheme of things. Why is it weighing so heavily on him? Why can’t he just move on? Does he even have the right to mourn? To grieve?

    John is allowed two days of isolation before his mum intervenes.


    A bit more than half a year on, John still struggles with Mary’s death.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” John eventually manages to gasp out into Sherlock’s neck, made wet with a sticky mixture of snot and spit and tears. “I’m so sorry.”

    The apologies quickly become a mantra, the only words able to be forced out of a tear-thickened throat, and they’re both painfully aware that the seemingly endless tears aren’t their cause.

    “None of what happened is your fault,” Sherlock replies, voice gentle and firm as it drifts down from where his head rests on top of John’s. “Not one bit of it. You did everything you possibly could.”

    “Then why wasn’t it enough?” John asks once the tears have dried up, silent sobs still shaking his shoulders even as he finds his voice again. “Why did she still die?”


    John has been plagued with the same nightmare since The Andalucia.
