Title: Cry Me Awake
Summary: From 8dreamcatcher8's prompt; "After Sherlock comes back post-Reichenbach, John regularly sleepwalks to Sherlock's bedroom (or living room if Sherlock is sleeping on the sofa) and he touches/caresses the side of Sherlock's head where there was blood after the fake suicide and he's crying at the same time.
I'd like to see Sherlock's

YAY! Thank you so much for the fill! It's so sweet...

I'll put a link to this post in my own Sherlock prompts entry so more people can find it :)

Glad you liked it! Hope it was happy enough at the end. :)

Yeah, the end is open enough to hint at more happy times soon.

I was just a bit surprised about the "eyes closed" while sleepwalking. I'm no specialist but I do know that when I sleepwalked as a child, I had my eyes open. I just saw things that weren't there in addition to things that actually were (specifically, I saw cars driving up the stairs and in the corridor of my flat while I was walking close to the wall so as to not get run over - but hey, it's never strange while you're asleep, only when you wake up).

That's probably something I should look into. Normally I'm pretty meticulous about research, but I was typing from school so I didn't have the luxury of opening a ton of windows. I'll fix that if I find otherwise. :)

I love it!

Oh, that is beautiful - really emotional and sad, but lovely and full of hope by the end. Gorgeous!
