Title: Want You Here Tonight
Author: Mazarin221b
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Length: 2,375
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: "As far as crushes go, this is the one he’s had the hardest time getting over."

Reccer's comments: There are so very many stories about John and Sherlock bridging all of their misunderstandings and getting together for the first time. Want You Here Tonight conveys John's frustration with his feelings and attraction to Sherlock brilliantly. This is my favorite first time story, especially because the reader can see that it's just as likely that it never would have happened, that John and Sherlock would have carried on indefinitely.

But wait, there's more!

There's also a deleted scene with a *cough* higher rating!

Title: I Can't Believe What I've Found
Author: Mazarin221b
Pairing: John/Sherlock
Length: 1,400
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: None
Verse: Sherlock BBC
Author's summary: "John is blissed out, high on adrenaline and skin and Sherlock"

Reccer's comments: Mazarin pulled the culmination of John and Sherlock's first kiss into a separate piece after deciding it didn't quite mesh with Want You Here Tonight. Thankfully she preserved and posted I Can't Believe What I've Found which is the perfect coda to the primary story.
