Spoilers:Episode 1.1 (but seriously if you haven’t seen 1.1 what are you doing reading fanfiction)
Pairing: Sherlock/John ; Mycroft/Lestrade
Rating: PG-13
Warning: slash, sex, vague impression of abuse
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 Sherlock plays his brother’s wingman and meets an interesting ex-soldier.
Reason 44 didn’t contain anything close to a sex scene. As ariadnechan pointed out that kind of misses the theme of the series. So I tried to fix that with this little addendum. I hope you enjoy it.

Sherlock finds himself actually enjoying himself as the night wears on. He entertains John with stories about the other patrons. He drinks in John’s amazement and praise. He begins embellishing the stories a bit just to see John smile or laugh. They both end up drinking a bit too much and laughing a bit too loudly.
Mycroft glares at them whenever they become too loud. His own conversation with Lestrade begins a bit more awkward then Mycroft had anticipated. There are just too many topics that are problematic. Mycroft can’t explain what he does; he doesn’t have much time for television or films; he doesn’t keep track of any local sports teams… Eventually Mycroft just listens while Lestrade talks about his work at the yard. Mycroft offers to help Lestrade with a troublesome co-worker. Lestrade gives him a strange look and politely rejects the help before continuing with the story. This leads to a discussion of the yard’s inter-departmental football team. Lestrade seems to be a rather integral member of the team. Mycroft inquires about attending on of Lestrade’s matches. Lestrade readily agrees. He would quite enjoy that.
When John and Sherlock begin giggling like school boys and John nearly falls off the bench seat, Mycroft decides that it’s time to wind down their evening.
“I believe it is time that I retire. May I give you a ride home detective-inspector? Doctor?” Mycroft asks. Lestrade nods. Sherlock promises to get Dr.Watson home safely. They say their goodbyes and make their way out to the waiting car. Lestrade sits so close to Mycroft in the backseat that Mycroft can feel the inspector’s warmth against his side.
Mycroft walks Lestrade to the door of his flat. Mycroft expects to be invited in for tea and sex. Mycroft doesn’t always enjoy sec but he understands that sex is often a necessary part of keeping a boyfriend. Mycroft was taught when he just started working for the government that sex was sometimes necessary to get what you want.
Mycroft lingers at the door. There’s a palpable energy in the air. Lestrade eyes stare at Mycroft too long, standing too close before he finally leans forward and presses a kiss to Mycroft’s lips. It’s a good kiss. It’s electrifying, all heat and want. When Mycroft slides his hands up Lestrade’s chest, intent in taking off the inspector’s clothes Lestrade pulls away.
“Not tonight,” Lestrade responds. “It’s too soon. I want to do this with you right. Slow, proper.” He kisses Mycroft again more chastely this time. Mycroft turns to leave, reading Lestrade’s actions as a rejection.
“Football match at 6 on Saturday,” Lestrade calls after him. “I expect to see you there. I’m buying you dinner after.” Mycroft smiles. He’ll be there.

Sherlock and John are laughing about the woman 2 tables over who dresses her pugs up in little costumes and re-enacts classic movie scenes when Mycroft decides it’s time to leave. Sherlock offers to bring John home. Lestrade and Mycroft leave together.
“My flat is around the corner if you’d like to come up,” Sherlock offers. John agrees. They make it too the flat largely without incident although they are both swaying a bit as they walk.
They barely make it inside the door before Sherlock presses a bruising kiss to John’s lips. Sherlock is running on enthusiasm and alcohol. This man is intriguing. He doesn’t dismiss him or call him a freak. He’s in awe of him and for Sherlock adoration is definitely a turn on.
Sherlock reads John like a book. He finds all of the places that make the doctor moan, gasp, and squirm. John has his first orgasm just inside the door to Sherlock’s flat. They actually make it into Sherlock’s bed for the second. John passes out after the third.
John wakes up the next morning sore and a little hung over but feeling incredibly happy. He rolls over and finds the other side of the bed empty. Sherlock must already be up. He’s not sure what the protocol is here. Should he quietly leave? He puts his clothes on and tries to sneak out.
“I ordered breakfast,” Sherlock says as soon as the bedroom door is open. The table is laid out with some of John’s favorite breakfast foods. The amazing smell makes John realize how hungry he is.
“Thanks,” John says. He puts some jam on a piece of toast and begins to eat.
“How do you feel about the violin?” Sherlock’s question breaks the silence.
“I’m sorry what?”
“I play the violin when I’m thinking. Sometimes I don’t talk for days on end. Would that bother you?”
“What?”
“You’re looking for a new place to live aren’t you?” John nods in agreement.
“I get a great deal on this place. There’s even a spare bedroom if you would want it,” Sherlock continues.
“But…” John protests.
“Come on,” Sherlock argues. “Great location, cheap rent, AND sex. Who could argue with that?”
John tries but he can’t think of anything especially when Sherlock’s foot begins caressing his genitals under the table. That’s how John ends up moving into 221B Baker Street.
AN: I really like how that turned out. For some reason it’s firmly in place in my mind cannon that Mycroft has messed up ideas about relationships and sex. That shows here. I hope you enjoyed it. Now hopefully ariadnechan’s Sherlock icon will stop making disapproving faces at me.
