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 Mycroft and Lestrade both celebrate their victories with sex.
Masterpost AN: This chapter is composed of two different scenes. Both are Lestrade/Mycroft. Enjoy.
Part 1:
“I can't possibly be away from the office for any length of time, not with the Korean elections so... well, you don't need to know about that, do you?” -Mycroft
After work Gregory Lestrade returns to the flat he shares with Mycroft Holmes. He is surprised to find his boyfriend sitting in their living room perusing an official-looking file. Mycroft had been staying late at the office for the last few weeks working on some government project and Greg was expecting the same tonight. Lestrade had gotten used to Mycroft being away from the flat for weeks because of work. The inspector could hardly complain when the same would happen when he had a complicated case.
“Didn’t know you’d be home,” Greg states as he leans down to give Mycroft a kiss hello. “Done with your most recent assignment or did you just bring your work home with you?”
“I am waiting for news on a developing situation,” Mycroft states without really explaining. “I thought I might get some work done while I wait.”
“Are you waiting for something to blow up?” Lestrade asks. “You tend to be quite smug when things blow up.”
“No, nothing as exciting as all that,” Mycroft denies. “I am merely monitoring an important election. If this election does not go as planned it could result in several long nights at the office.”
“Well we wouldn’t want that,” Greg says. “I can think of a better place for you to spend your evenings.”
The ringing of Mycroft’s mobile interrupts before he can respond. Mycroft answers the phone with a simple “Holmes”. “Oh yes I see… Very good… Go ahead and take the rest of the night off... You’re welcome… Goodbye.” Mycroft ends the call.
“Good news?” Lestrade asks.
“Very,” Mycroft reveals.
“I was thinking about ordering a Chinese tonight but how about we go out and celebrate?” Greg offers.
“As nice as that sounds,” Mycroft counters. “I was thinking we could celebrate at home.”
Mycroft pulls Greg to him and they begin to make out on the couch like a bunch of hormonal teenagers.
“God, I’ve missed you,” Greg moans into Mycroft’s mouth.
“I suggest we take this upstairs. Sex on the couch will leave both of us sore in the morning.”

Part 2:
“Greg, I have 2 tickets for this weekend’s rugby game against France and was wondering if you’d like to go,” John asks. John, Sherlock, Lestrade, and Lestrade’s team are all at the pub celebrating the successful closing of a case.
“Oh well,” Lestrade suddenly becomes nervous. “I can’t. Family stuff this weekend you see. Maybe some other time.”
Shouting from the other side of the bar prevents John from questioning Lestrade further. Tipsy Sherlock seems to be having it out with a drunken Anderson. Sally is encouraging Anderson to “punch him in his smug face.” John and Lestrade both move to break it up before they get banned from another pub.
John leads the swaying Sherlock outside and hails a taxi. As they head back to Baker Street John can’t help thinking about Greg.
He considered the detective a friend. They would often spend time together watching sports, drinking beer, and complaining about the trials of dating the Holmes brothers. But today Greg had made a barely comprehensible excuse to avoid going to a rugby match with him. Was he being brushed off?
“Lestrade has been banned from Twickenham Stadium,” Sherlock suddenly states.
“What?” John doesn’t understand the outburst.
“Lestrade cannot attend the match with you because he has been banned from the rugby stadium,” Sherlock explains. “He was
embarrassed to tell you this therefore he lied. Rather poorly I might add.”
“What did he do to get banned?” John asks.
“Lestrade invited Mycroft to a rugby match against France last year,” Sherlock states. “Lestrade must have become rather excited when England won because he was found shagging my brother in one of the locker rooms. They were asked to leave and not return.”
“But couldn’t Mycroft use his government influence to lift the ban?”
“Of course,” Sherlock reveals. “But Mycroft detests rugby and prefers to use the fact that he is banned as an excuse to not attend any home matches. However I do not mind rugby. We could go the game if you want, but WE won’t get caught. Unless, of course, you’re into that sort of thing.” Sherlock finishes his statement with a wink. John can’t help but flush crimson even as he is nodding in enthusiastic agreement.
AN: Mycroft would use sex to make sure he doesn’t have to go to anymore rugby games. Clever Mycroft. Please leave me a review.
