β π» . βΊ γ. It was night in the "Baker Street Boys" apartment. Sherlock played a beautiful melody he was composing while watching the snow fall outside, facing the window. He seemed melancholic, Holmes seems like an emotionless robot to others, which is truly... not true.
Sherlock thought he couldn't be capable of feeling strong emotions that he considered silly, like love, until John Watson appeared in his life. Suddenly it was like a light at the end of the tunnel, as it was for Watson too. After so many years in Afghanistan, he managed to find someone who, in a strange way, filled his holes.
However, John realizes that Sherlock never really shows much emotion to him when they are not in definitive danger. Holmes was just afraid of losing John, of scaring him, and he was also afraid of becoming vulnerable... well, Sherlock was a man of logic, love made no sense to him, something so futile, but never able to be explained scientifically, it's a feeling, but one that is not defined only by hormones, there is no logical explanation.
One of these days, John called him a human machine, they had a little fight. This hit Sherlock where it hurt, and when angry, he would suddenly go quiet, which is what happened. Three days passed, he ignored John, he didn't look at his face... that was how the taller one acted when angry, upset. He felt really upset, couldn't John see beyond his intelligence? Didn't the ex-marine know him? Did Watson even like him? . βΊ γ.
