Sherlock is amazing at disguising. John knows this; he's seen him in countless disguises and if Sherlock really tries he can make himself look completely unlike himself. Then one day for a case Sherlock wears a disguise John hasn't seen on him before, and John recognises him. Recognises him as the first man he ever slept with, in a night club, who afterwards had said he had just needed a diversion to stop some other guy noticing him. Then left without looking back. The whole incident totally fucked up John's head for weeks, broke up his relationship, and almost got him kicked out of med school for not focussing/missing assignments/failing tests because all he could think about was what an idiot he'd been.
TL;DR - Sherlock disguises himself for a case, and John recognises him as the guy who shagged him in a night club (his first time with a bloke) when he was in med school before buggering off, in an incident that almost ruined John's life.

John blinks and looks around the pub. He's nearly done with his second pint, but not nearly ready to leave, so he signals one of the barmaids for another and stretches his hand, rolling his fingers and flexing them inward and out.
Movement catches his eye and he turns automatically. The bloke he'd noticed before, the one barely watching the match, is looking at him. John nods, smiles, then glances away. When John looks back a few moments later he's still looking. John feels his cheeks heat with pleasure, then his stomach drops.
It's probably Sherlock. In another bloody disguise, flirting with John to make him think that someone might be legitimately interested in him, only to dash that adrenaline rush to the ground all over again.
John frowns, looks away. Sometimes reality is far worse than he likes to remember.

With a quick manoeuvre, John wriggles out of Brad's grasp, then presses him back so his head is at the foot of the bed, and covers his body with his own. John rubs his chin, his face over the entirety of Brad's body, slipping his tongue out every few moments to taste an errant patch of warmth, and breathing in fragrant skin. He catches Brad's wrists and lifts them overhead, pinning them with one hand. Kissing down the underskin of Brad's arm, John can feel Brad writhe against him, buck upward, cry out his name. He gets to the cave of hair of Brad's underarm and inhales. It's a strong scent: warm and very male. His mouth all but waters. John traces the edge of his underarm with his tongue. It's sharp, but not at all unpleasant, and the noises Brad keeps making are going in a direct line to John's cock

God, the flashback scenes are a mix of insane hotness and utter sadness knowing that it all goes to hell.
I hate rushing genius, but my god I need more of this so badly! What is on the paper?!! What the hell did Sherlock say to him back then?! Seriously, this fic is insanely tense right now!
Oh and yeah thirding the whole Sherlock begging forgiveness thing! If he hadn't been such a bastard he and John could have been together for years by now.

I wanted to write a quick comment to let people know that while I've got a good thousand words or so of the next part, I'm going to hold off on posting until I get a fair bit more written. In writing this story I've fallen so hard for this John and this Sherlock, and I really want to... do right by them, if that makes any sense. So I want to get a bit more written and make sure my head is on straight. [thank you for your patience, really.]
I think this story will probably end up with another 3-4K, so I think we're in the home stretch here.
Thank you (seriously ♥ -- so much) for all of the comments and words of support. It's meant a lot to me.

I for one say take whatever time you need to do right by them, as you say. This fill is so good, and I'm looking forward to more angsty bits (GOD though, seriously, what happened to them back in 1992? And what did Sherlock give the bartender? Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!) Ok, deep breath.
No seriously, I'm looking forward to more of this so much it's painful to wait, but patience IS a virtue, so do what you gotta do to keep up the awesome.
I appreciate this so much, thank you. I am writing when I can (this is a busy time of year, but should hopefully let up soon) and still ridiculously in love with both Sherlock and John here.
I did want to let you know that I've got another 4k written and will put some of it up one day this week.
I'm so glad this has been a good fill for you. ♥ And thank you so much for the prompt -- I can't believe how it's grown!
