'Till I Reach You by Mazarin221b, 13 k, mature. Two months after Sherlock's "death," John inadvertently finds out that he is alive. Determined to find Sherlock and unable to let this second chance at what he really wants slip away, John realizes he's learned more about being an investigator than he expected. But in the end, what he brings to the partnership is being uniquely himself.

Maybe in the meantime wait and see by Mildredandbobbin, 27 k, explicit. First Sherlock and now Mary, in the space of three years John has lost the two most important people in his life. So excuse him for laughing hysterically when Sherlock walks in the door. (Locked to AO3.)
From Ashes by thirtypercent, 6 k, explicit. Sherlock makes his way home. Sequel to Pyrrhic Victory, but can be read as a standalone.
Out of Sight by Mazarin221b, 4 k, teen. John finds the best way to deal with loss is to pretend it none of it ever happened. Out of sight, out of mind, you know. Until the things John thought locked away start to turn up.
A One Man Army by TalksToSelf, 10 k, explicit. Post-Reichenbach, Sherlock comes home expecting to find a broken man. Instead he finds a soldier. A man who took on the world single handedly - and won.
The Inexact Science of Miracles by VampirePam, 2 k, teen. Alternate ending to "The Reichenbach Fall," in which Sherlock shows up behind John in the graveyard to explain and ask for forgiveness. What John gives him in addition is something far better.
True in All Minds but His by singularly_obsessed, 3 k, teen. Sally settled in, putting the paper aside. She briefly glanced over it before choosing a file, then suddenly whipped back, snatching it up and all but shouting, “Bloody hell! Since when has he been wearing a widow’s ring?”
The Empty Heart by sussexbound (SamanthaLenore), 7 k, teen. What would have happened if Sherlock had returned a few months, a few days earlier? What if it had been nothing but a few hours? What if he and John had been alone? Things could have been so different...
Gone to Feed the Roses (Elegant and Curled) by hitlikehammers , 18 k, teen. Post-Reichenbach. John Watson is no one's weeping widow, and he knows that it's not impossible to cheat death. (John fakes his death and goes to search for Sherlock.)
Sixteen Words by kim47, 2 k, teen. Sherlock comes back after however-long of being in hiding. He has really missed John, coming to realise just how much he loves him etc. John has been devastated, he never got a chance to tell Sherlock how he felt. When Sherlock bursts in to 221B, barely two words are uttered before he finds himself pushed up against the wall, explanations saved for later.
Children of Dionysus -- MoonBeam (part 1) by meretriciousanddelicious, 5 k, explicit. John went to bed thinking Sherlock was dead, and woke up with a miracle.

The Burning Heart by May_Shepard, 119 k, mature. With Sherlock gone, John feels like his life is over. He tries to move on with a charming new nurse at his clinic, Mark Morstan. However, Sherlock isn’t as dead as John thought, and Mark isn’t quite who he appears to be (A redo of s3 with a male companion for John.)

Tomorrow's Song by agirlsname, 26 k, mature. (Sherlock POV. A different Reichenbach reunion.) How can he think a relationship with me would be a good idea? I am the sort of person to take a break from my life and when I come back after two years, I expect to find it exactly as I left it. In reality I find it shattered to pieces. (I actually equate you with my life. When did I start doing that?)
Stay by unicornpoe, 17 k teen. John and Sherlock both begin to suspect that something deeper than friendship connects them. But when Sherlock fakes his own suicide and then comes back, things aren't the same. Is it too late? Or do the Baker Street boys still have a chance at love? Some Language. A ton of feels.
The Secret Blog of Dr. John H. Watson series by agirlsname. 3 works, teen to explicit. If John ever saw a picture of how Sherlock gazes at him when he isn't looking, things would turn around very quickly for them. What if they were together before Sherlock jumped? John records it all in his secret blog.

Hunger by Colourcubify, 10 k, explicit. All Sherlock wants to do is go home to his doctor and beg for his forgiveness. His own stubbornness keeps him away until seeing John in his head isn't enough anymore. No mind palace replica can surpass the real thing. But can he tell what is truly real anymore?
