Sherlock doesn't see it.

He doesn't just look open and vulnerable; he is. He has given Obadiah his complete trust, enough so that he believes no harm will come to him, enough so that he is no longer even looking to see if it might. Not analyzing Obadiah's movements, consciously or unconsciously. Not counting the passage of time by his still-measured breaths.

Not paying attention to anything but sensuality and trust.
