Johnlock and
Kisses

A Slowly Dawning Attraction

1 time they did. Sweet and sensual.

Let You Kiss Me (So Sweet and So
Soft)
by out_there, 8 k, gen. John tries to figure out what experiment
has Sherlock kissing him at intervals over the week. John calls Mycroft to see
if Sherlock is doing this to bug him. They have an entire conversation where
John says nothing. Sherlock sulks loudly and reads aggressively. Sweet  fluff, & humor.

Just a Kiss by
emmagrant01, 19 k, explicit. Adorable romance, some plot, some sex. Five times
John and Sherlock kiss for work, and one time they don’t.

Up Or Artistic Lush by
Speranza, 8 k, explicit. Sherlock gets drugged and kisses John. Later John
finds Sherlock at a gay sex club. With crossword puzzles, and a cooler of hands
in the kitchen, it’s just another week at 221B, but they need to have THAT
TALK, and soon.

Amenable by Resonant, 5 k, explicit. John decides he’s
reading Sherlock right and kisses him on the sofa one night. After a series of
getting to know you touching sessions, Sherlock gets scared and pulls way back.
John reassures him that this is real and it’s ok.

The Lights Are On by
AmandaDBone, 5 k, explicit. The first time John kissed Sherlock, he had no idea
what he’d set in motion.

Demonstrative by
NoStraightLine, 6 k explicit. John is tired of all or nothing with Sherlock – it’s
either amazing cases and nuclear bomb hot sex or being completely ignored. John
argues for a kiss. Eventually, Sherlock agrees. He can do kisses. This story
kicks off a 10 part series.

Five
Kisses

cute fluff. John and Sherlock share a number of kisses leading up to the one
that breaks the dam. A wonderful little friends to lovers story, with some
hurt/comfort for a wounded John. Thumbs up!

Times John Cooked Something with Peas and One First Kiss
by

slowly reveal their hunger for each other, Sherlock and John finally share a
first kiss. (Inspired by Sherlock’s line about John from The Sign of Three:
“And he can cook… Does a thing … with peas…”) Adorable.

Unkissed
by 221b_hound, 7 K, explicit. First in a whole series of “un’s.” Even though
there’s no sex, John knows the two of them are a couple. It takes Sherlock a
bit longer to catch up. Sherlock is asexual or demisexual here, but John is
everything he never knew he wanted. Gradually the two of them grow closer, and
explore the boundaries of what physical touch Sherlock can handle. Sweet and
slow, and lots of fluff. (Great series!)

A Kiss With The Air by inkandsoul,
26 k, explicit.
30 kinds of Johnlock
kisses, from first to last, over the course of their relationship. All linked
as they’re all part of one story. A kiss (chapter) a day, every day for 30

Dates

make him stay. John, however, follows these clues to the wrong conclusion.

Looks can
be deceiving
by inkinmyheartandonthepage, 2 k, gen. Sherlock,

Soulmates –
Johnlock

Color Me Your Color, Baby by

and permanent markings. When John and Sherlock finally touch, they just know.
Lovely.

their finger of their soulmate. Sherlock has met 24 Johns, and none of them are

people’s soulmates appear on their hands, Sherlock is a Finder in training, one

series of shorts – “Little Hearts.”) Magical realism, fluff, soulmates.

The Words We Wear by

match. Sweet.

Alphas Protect by Dayja, 24 k, unrated.
Omegaverse. Everyone in the world starts their lives as betas. It takes meeting
one’s soulmate to spark the change into alpha or omega. Sherlock is a beta. He
expects to live his entire life that way. After all, he doesn’t have a
soulmate, right? But if he did have a soulmate, he knew he’d turn out to be the
alpha. And Sherlock is never wrong. Right?

Colors by Quesarasara, 140 k,
explicit. Everyone on earth is born with eyes that see in black, white, and an

wants to mate with him.

Time Enough by airynothing, 1 k, gen. John
refused to believe that Sherlock, of all people, could have simply missed his

Just a Scribble on your
Wrist
by statesofuncertainty,
13 k, mature. Sherlock entered the flat first, Adrenaline still flooding his
system from the running he threw his coat on to the rack before suddenly
finding himself pressed up against the closed door with John’s lips on his own.
This was new. Very new. An AU where everyone has their soulmates name written
on their wrist. Unfortunately it looks like an unreadable scribble and only
your soulmate can read their own name on your wrist.

Keeping the Same Time by what_alchemy, 4
k, teen. “When Sherlock Holmes brought Dr. John Watson, late of the Royal
Army Medical Corps, back to life with a chase through London streets and some
Indonesian takeaway, John put away, once and for all, any thoughts of finding
the person whose name he wore beneath his left breast.”

Soulmate by farawisa, 5 k, teen. Everyone seems to have a soulmate, everybody except Sherlock. It doesn’t bother him. He thinks the whole thing is utterly stupid  … until he meets John that is.

What I Forgot To Tell
You
by azriona,
9 k, mature. On average, a person will have ten soulmates throughout their
lifetime. But that’s the funny thing about averages. There’s always those for whom
they don’t apply.

Written On The Wrist by sheerrloockk, 5
k, teen. The thing about the Mate Mark was that it didn’t mean you’d find your
soul mate. It just meant you had one.

The Waiting is the Worst
Part

clock could count down to the moment you meet your soul mate, would you want to
know?”

These Inconvenient Fireworks by

until they meet their intended. Soulmates/Philip Pullman mashup.

In Words, Like Weeds by You_Light_The_Sky, 5 k,
teen. John decides to name the man (the character, the person in his head)
Sherlock.

The Vision by cloud_wolfbane, 37 k,
mature. In this world, most of the population has a soul mate. A Vision,

Do you have any fics with like flowers are used as like notes

alexxphoenix42:

Something
About the Language of Flowers
by ightybug, 39 k, mature. John is
failing miserably in his efforts to adjust to civilian life. That is, until he
meets Sherlock, a florist with more than a passing interest in poisonous
plants. That knowledge may come in handy as they take on a serial killer who is
attacking veterans recently returned from war. Or, Sherlock is a brilliant
idiot and John is his damsel in distress. Until the moment that all changes.

Meditations
on a gorse bush
by lbmisscharlie, 2 k, gen. Written for this prompt
at the kinkmeme:Give me Sherlock passing out meaningful flowers to unsuspecting
people please, and maybe one who might know. It basically became Sherlock

part of your life. After everything that happened Sherlock finally sets about

he’s doing the flowers at the wedding of John Watson and Mary Morstan. John’s

wedding out of his mind?

Ask by
dragonQuill907, 4 k, teen. Unilock. Sherlock Holmes works alone at Hudson
Florals, arranging bouquet after bouquet for boring, predictable people.
There’s only one customer who ever catches his eye: John Watson.

The
Perfect Boyfriend
