Several months after The Fall, John goes to see Mycroft for whatever reason. Either he was feeling angry and wanted to yell at someone, or maybe he was being particularly reckless and Mycroft had him brought to his office to talk. Either way, it's the first time since Sherlock's 'death' that they've come face to face.
John is still resentful and largely blames Mycroft for Sherlock's death, and he speaks to him with scorn.
As John is about to walk out, he sees a glimmer through the window, and tackles Mycroft just as the window shatters and a bullet pierces Mycroft's chair.
He ushers Mycroft out of the room, keeping his head down, and calls for help but then one of Mycroft's people turns to them and pulls out a gun. John manages to get them away with minimal damage, but now John has to get them someplace safe. BAMF John ensues.
It's not the first time that Mycroft's life has been targeted, but it is the first time that he has been so unprepared for it. He can't contact any of his people because he doesn't know who to trust, so his usual safe houses are out of the question.
If/when they get to a temporary safe place, John patches up a cut that Mycroft sustained somewhere, but Mycroft is really rattled and upset and snaps at John. John doesn't have patience for it and snaps back. Basically a prickly relationship.
Over the next few days, they continue moving locations and come to depend more on each other. And at some point they bang. Explicit scenes are optional. (Though encouraged)
Eventually, they manage to resolve the situation, (Maybe Mycroft has an old and powerful friend who can be trusted, idk up to you) and life resumes as normal except for this thing between John and Mycroft. You can take it where you want.
+ If there is rimming & anal + If John has a beard/stubble while rimming + If after the whole assassination thing is resolved, and John and Mycroft are in a relationshippy thing, Mycroft accidentally alludes that Sherlock is alive and drama ensues.
I'm sorry if there's some really specific things in this prompt, but I would be so happy if anyone took any time at all to write it. This is one of my 'super specific fics with a fairly obscure pairing that I feel should exist already' things, haha.
