My Dearest, My Only, My Redbeard

It had been two years since Sherlock had first met Redbeard, and two years since Sherlock was lonely or sad. He found himself thinking of Redbeard more often during school, especially when he felt alone and cold. He had a whole wing of his Mind Palace dedicated to Redbeard. And I suppose that's how he got hurt so badly. (A fanfiction about Redbeard's part in Sherlock's childhood)
