"Family Affairs" by sommerspr0ssen | Gen | When John's family is involved in a car accident, only nine-year-old John survives with bad damage to his shoulder. With no relatives left to raise him, John ends up in a children's home and quickly loses any hope that he will ever be considered for adoption. That is, until the Holmes family announces their interest in adopting a brother for their brilliant but troublesome son Sherlock. | 27.400 words

"John", Sherlock says quietly and averts his eyes, which is very unlike him. "I'm... I'm sorry about what I've said to Father. You aren't..." He stops again, pressing his hands into the sides of his legs. "You aren't dull. I... I... I like you, all right? And I'd like you to stay. With us, I mean. At home."

A warm tingle grows in John's belly, seemingly expanding, when he finally understands what Sherlock is trying to say, has tried to achieve by running away on his own. Sherlock likes him. Sherlock wants him to stay.

I think I rec'd this one already but never mind, it's a great fic worth rec'ing twice, so here you have it. I really like Mycroft in this one. And Sherlock's a brat, nothing new there ;P
