Summary
John finds it three months after he's moved back.
He's on the hunt for something to make for dinner, is scrounging through the cupboards, when he happens upon the graveyard of pasta boxes Sherlock still seems to create when left to his own devices. Behind seven boxes of pasta, all almost completely empty, is a dark-glassed bottle, with a paler coat of dust.
It's unopened.
John's face falls slack when he sees it, instantly recognises it, and for a long moment he just stands and looks at it.

Summary
Sherlock's school reunion has come up, matched with a retirement party for one of his most influential professors. He's reluctant to go, but his good friend John finally talks him into it by agreeing to go with him for support.
“Jesus, Sherlock, it’s just a picture,” John entered the fray with annoyance. Sometimes Sherlock forgot how lucky he was to still have his parents around.
Sherlock’s eyes darted to his with an intense look of betrayal, “You are aware that you’re meant to be in the picture with me?”
John flushed, because he hadn’t actually thought that was the case, “Why in the world would I be in the picture?”
Sherlock sighed heavily, “Because, John, you are my plus one.”
And like a ton of bricks falling from the sky to bury him beneath a pile of understanding, John realised what this entire evening was going to look like to outsiders. To Sherlock’s former classmates...the bullies.
To the rest of the world, John is Sherlock’s date tonight.

Summary
Now complete!
The first time it happened was completely by accident.
Post-Reichenbach, John finds a way to hold on to Sherlock after all.
Prepare yourself for 1.) angst 2.) plot 3.) smut 4.) more smut 5.) even more smut 6.) more plot 7.) happy ending. But, in apparently WAY too many chapters. If you're worried about the graphic violence / torture, be aware it's limited to Chapter 30. Probably canon-typical, but I'd rather over-warn than under-warn.
Here's an excerpt, just to give you hope through the angsty first few chapters:
"I am going to seduce you, Sherlock Holmes," he rumbled into Sherlock's ear, smiling as Sherlock's breath grew unsteady again. "Not because you need it, but because you deserve it. We both do." He gave Sherlock a squeeze. "Trust me?"
Sherlock's head lifted, those uncanny pale eyes looking at John with complete sincerity. "I've always trusted you, John."
John felt the last bit of tension leaving his shoulders. "Good." He kissed Sherlock one more time, swift and soft — a promise. "That's good."
