Why I Believed Sherlock was Going to Confess His Love to John
This is not just a fangirl statement. I truly believed I was about to hear a love confession from Sherlock, because of how the buildup was with season 3 to the modern television show of Sherlock. Season 2 had ended with Sherlock faking his own death, in order to protect his companions, including his best friend, John Watson. 2 years pass, and Sherlock finally reunites with John, back in London.

She had paid for it herself.
