John and Sherlock FINALLY get together, but tell no-one. John doesn't want them to be a secret, but Sherlock insists that it's best no-one finds out they're anything more than friends. John gets all paranoid that Sherlock is ashamed of him because he's normal and boring.
Turns out it's because Sherlock assumes people will think badly of John if they knew he was in a relationship with Sherlock.

Um. First Sherlock fic. I hope it's sort of close to what you wanted. Hopefully someone else will come along and fill this better than I could!It's late when John stumbles through the front door to Baker Street, his senses dulled and his mind pleasantly hazy. After the warmth of the pub, the chill of the winter air has shocked him half-way back to sober, but he's still drunk enough -- and the flat is dark enough -- that it takes him several minutes to realise that Sherlock is standing by the window, his arms crossed and a blank expression on his face

John shakes him off, suddenly angry all over again. "Then why the hell won't you admit to anyone that we're together! If I'm such a great part of your life, why don't you want anyone to know!"
"Because they'll drive you away from me!" Sherlock shouts. "They'll talk about you behind your back and they'll start calling you a freak, just like they do to me, and eventually you'll get fed up with it because you can find someone else if you want to -- someone who people like, who's better for you and better at this than I am -- and then you'll leave me and I can't let that happen

Yay! I confess: I do love the boys when they're angsty but so far, at least I'm incapable of writing it, heh, so fluffy they have to be in my fic ;P Thank you for the comment :)
Naw, that was really sweet! Angst is awesome and all, but sometimes you just need a big dose of fluff :D Plus insecure!Sherlock is one of my favourite things ever.
