Summary
John once said that if Sherlock ever felt the need to use drugs, he could call him. Sherlock never imagined he’d actually do it—until Victor Trevor’s years-too-late funeral leaves him reeling. For the first time, Sherlock reaches out, and John is there to help him navigate the memories, cravings, and emotions he can no longer ignore. In the aftermath, Sherlock begins to realize that asking for help might be the first step toward something he never thought possible: A future built on connection, trust, and love.
Post Season 4. Only the barest fleeting mention of Rosie.

Summary
“How am I meant to forgive you?” John whispers, the moment calling for quiet, the question heavy and harsh. Sherlock thinks of what they’ve both been through, each suffering in solitude, existing in a divided nightmare, several worlds apart.
“Perhaps you’re not,” he says, closing his eyes against the inescapable dark.

An act of giving by Guava_Juice

Summary
"Sherlock is my whole world, as he approaches me with the dainty rose, its colour a deep crimson, and his face, otherworldly. The room is empty, save for us both, as he pushes his hand forward, towards me, in an act of giving. Giving a rose, giving himself, to me.
I accepted it promptly, because why wouldn’t I?"
Holmes gives Watson a rose. That's it. I just wanted to write fluff, and the Roses Monologue seemed perfect for that.

Summary
"Sherlock wants to say, "I love you, John." But he still can't say it. Too much is riding on those four little words. The tenuous thread that binds the three of them, he and John and Rosie, together under one roof could snap. He's only recently obtained John's forgiveness; he couldn't afford to ask for more. The words had been pushing against the insides of his lips for years, but there had never been the right time and then it had been too late. "
