    Summary

    Watson couldn’t help but be interested in Sherlock Holmes. The intellect, the arrogance, the wit, even the 3 am chemistry experiments. 

    But especially, he was interested in the distance. It was obvious that Holmes enjoyed his presence. It was even more obvious he was keeping himself away from friendship. Any kind of companionship seemed to elude him. He only went out for clients, only spoke to clients, the police, Mrs. Hudson, Mycroft if he let him, Watson. Holmes’ social circle was but four fingers on Watson’s hand and he wasn’t sure he could even count half of them. 

    Watson dared to ask about this, once. 

    “Have you any friends in town, Holmes?”
