You know those OTP prompts that are like "Person A is stood up at a restaurant so Person B pretends to be their date so they aren't embarrassed"? That's how John met Sherlock at Angelo's.
Bonus: Sherlock is Person A, but he's really on a case(ASiP if you want to parallel) and only *looks* like he's been stood up. Extra bonus points if John gets dragged along on the case with little idea of what's going on.
Alternate meeting: One pretends to be the other's date.
