Summary: In one of the episodes of How I Met Your Mother the character create a list of 50 reasons to have sex. So I’ve written a fic for every reason. The fics are mostly slash and are from several different fandoms including (but not limited to) BBC Sherlock, Supernatural, Grimm, and Glee. Most fics stand alone.

In this chapter Lestrade gets back on the horse after finally divorcing his wife… and by horse I mean Mycroft’s cock.

Sherlock is an asshole and a self-declared sociopath. But that doesn’t mean he’s not right. Lestrade wants to make his marriage work but after Sherlock mentions his wife’s infidelity Greg can’t stop thinking about it. When his wife kisses him, he wonders if she kisses him the same way. When he and his wife fuck (there was a time when he would call it making love but not anymore) he wonders how he compares to her younger, fitter lover. When she comes home late, he can’t help picturing her wreathing on the end of the P.E. teacher’s cock. He can’t stand it. Within a month he moves out and files for divorce.

His wife calls and tries to convince him to try again but after more than a year of trying Lestrade knows they’d just be putting off the inevitable. That doesn’t mean he likes admitting that it’s over. He hates having to accept he failed.

A few weeks later, when Sherlock is brought in to consult on a case, the detective loudly deduces the news of Lestrade’s divorce in front of the other yarders. Lestrade spends the rest of the afternoon at the edge of the crime scene talking to John and keeping himself away from Sherlock as the detective inspector tries resist the urge to punch the consulting detective in the mouth.

“Come to the pub with us tonight,” John urges. “We can get you back on the horse.” Lestrade tries to make an excuse not to go but John is persistent. Eventually he reluctantly agrees.

That night Gregory gets pissed and lets the boys from the yard (plus John) push him at random women. He spends the night trying to flirt but too many pints and years without practice lead to Lestrade striking out with all of them. At least he doesn’t end up with a
drink in the face, unlike Anderson. Hours later, he stagers home alone.

It takes longer than he’s proud of to realize that there’s someone else in his flat. He’s going to blame it on being plastered. The ‘someone else’ turns out to be Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock’s mysterious brother. Mycroft is speaking but Lestrade can’t focus. He’d found Mycroft sexy since the man had first ‘kidnapped’ him shortly after Lestrade had met Sherlock. Repeat encounters had turned sexual attraction into what Lestrade was reluctant to admit was a bit of a crush. He finds himself staring at Mycroft’s lips. This isn’t the first time he’d fantasized about kissing the politician, in fact he’d fantasized a lot more. But acting on it has always seemed like a bad idea.

Luckily being drunk means he doesn’t have to worry about whether something is a good or bad idea. He interrupts the elder Holmes with a kiss. The politician responds eagerly. Lestrade leads the other man toward his bedroom.

He’s definitely getting back on that horse and he’s going to ride it hard.

AN: I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I’m off to bed but I’ll post the first Merlin fic tomorrow. Wednesday I'll be posting a John/Sherlock dialogue-only drabble that I had a lot of fun writing. See you then :)
