Author's summary: Amongst the flowers and butterflies, two young boys confess some things they won't understand until it's too late, But during that one day in the park, when it was just Sherlock and John, nothing else mattered but making the other smile, When you find a friend as special as him, you do your best never to forget, no matter what comes up.
Reccer's comments: I'm not usually a big fan of kidfic. OK, I confess, I usually run the other way when someone mentions it, but this one is just so sweet and innocent, without being at all cute. The scene at the park is beautifully done and it captures the essence of their relationship in the '09 verse so perfectly, I just had to rec it. It makes perfect sense in this context that they met as children and then continued their relationship as grown ups.
I'm not familiar with
florfina at all, unless she writes under another name somewhere, but this story is masterfully done. I'm looking forward to reading her others.
