-John's POV-

When I did eventually pick myself up from the tiled floor, I turned off the water, and stepped out, drying myself off. I sighed, before I slipped on my clothes. I cleaned up the bed, and layed down on the hard matress, starring up at the square tiled ceiling. I sighed again, wishing I never did that. Slipping my phone out of my pocket, I opened my message's, and found a new text from Sherlock, sent twenty minutes ago.
Can we talk? -SH

I paused, wondering if I could even face him again. But sighing at myself, I texted him back.
Fine. Call me. -JW

I got a call a few seconds later, silence on the other end until I said a quick 'hello'.

"Look John... I'm breaking up with Lestrade... Soon..." He said quickly, yet slowly at the same time.

"What makes you think I'll take you back anyway? What if I found someone else?" I said, anger filling my core. How dare he!

I hung up quickly, calling back William. The phone rang for a while, until he did eventually pick up, saying a quick, 'hello?'

"Hi Will." I said, sniffling into the phone.

"Oh John, hello. Did you want me to schedule an apointment or something, seeing as I just left."

I sighed again. I have been sighing a lot today, and frankly, its driving me bonkers.

"Well I-I really I just wanted someone to talk to..." I said into the phone, wiping tears that had ran down my cheeks.

"Oh well I... fine, I'll be over in five minutes. Sorry for the long wait, I drove pretty far."

"Its fine. Thank you." I said before hanging up the phone again.

Five minutes later, there was a knock at the door, followed by William saying, "Pizza devilvery!"

I opened the door, letting him inside, both of us sitting down on the bed where not thirty minutes ago we had sex.

"So, whats the matter John?" he asked, turning his head to look at me, myself just starring at the floor.

Suddenly, I flung myself into his arms, sobbing loudly. William was taken aback, but held onto me tightly.

"Woah, what happened?"

After a few minutes of crying into his black shirt, I looked up at him, and began my story.

After telling him almost everything, he paused, and kissed me unexpectantly. I kissed back, yearning for comfort.

He pulled away from the kiss, looking into my eyes.

"You don't need that asshole. If you want... I'll treat ya to dinner." He asked, a hint of understanding in his sweet voice.

I nodded, before going back into his arms for another subtle hug.

"Oh and, sorry but dinner is ganna have to be take out. I'm not very big on cash..."

"No, its okay. Its perfect." I said while sniffling.
Maybe I found my soul mate... Maybe William is my other half... I guess I'll just have to wait and see...
