These are all Sherlock BBC

Consulting Cupid by anonymous: Sherlock is a professional matchmaker who is single, which hurts his reputation with his clients. So he hires John to pretend to be his boyfriend. Sherlock winds up distracted from his job because he's too busy trying to figure out why John intrigues him so much. Sherlock is completely blind to the fact that he just met his own perfect match.
WIP last I checked

Once More, With Feeling by redcarrigan: To put off his meddlesome, matchmaking mother, John convinces Sherlock to play the role of his significant other. Unparalleled awkwardness ensues.

The Politician in the Manor by miya_tenaka / miyawriting: Sherlock and John go undercover to solve a theft at Sweet Pines Manor, a private resort that caters only to same-sex couples who value their privacy high enough to pay their extortionate fees.

A Silver Sixpence by doodle_writes: “We’re going have to make it believable, you know,” he said, sighing in resignation. There was no point in arguing with Sherlock anyway, he was right after all. It wasn’t like they couldn’t apply for a dissolution after they’d caught Barnet.

The Troubles Of Marriage Counselling by starjenni: Sherlock and John go to marriage counselling. Hilarity and angst happen in equal measures.

The Important Bit by RayneDrop on Fanfiction.net
Just where exactly is the line between "to love" and "to be in love"? What difference is required between "flatmate" and "husband"? Besides the rings, obviously. The important bit is that they have each other. Married asexual!Sherlock/Straight!John.

Love, John muses, is sort of like a Quentin Tarantino film. Except not really.
