Penny would always remember the only time her mom let her watch her as she got ready for work. Penny was a small child; she was probably four and a half or five years old. She remembered lying in bed and being woken up for some reason. The door to the bathroom was slightly ajar, the dull incandescent light poured into the bedroom that she shared with her older sister. Penny got up out of her My Little Pony themed bed, and slowly walked toward the bathroom with her favorite Care Bear, Wish Bear, clutched in her tiny hands.
She peered into the bathroom and saw her mother's reflection in the mirror. She was spritzing herself with her perfume, which smelled like a mixture of flowers and talc. When she caught Penny's little gaze staring at her through the crack in the door, Penny froze, she felt like she had gotten caught with her hand in the cookie jar. Her mom smiled and opened the door. Penny was quickly being picked up and sat on the counter. Penny remembered how her mother was dressed. She had her short silk robe tightly cinched around her small waist and she wore her brunette hair in Velcro rollers.
"What are you doing up, Little Girl?" Her mom asked. Penny clutched her Care Bear to her chest as her mother smoothed down her wild blond hair and brushed her bangs off of her forehead. Penny shrugged her shoulders and looked into her mom's striking green eyes. She always thought her mom had the prettiest eyes.
"You couldn't sleep?" She softly asked. Penny quickly shook her head and looked down to the floor. Her mom smiled and pulled her into her embrace. Penny loved her mom's hugs. Her dad was too busy wishing she was a boy, to hug her like that. Penny never got to see pretty things like make up and perfume. Instead, she was being groomed to help out on the farm and swing a baseball bat. Dad's little Slugger.
Penny didn't understand why she was seen as a boy in her father's eyes, because she already had a brother. Her mom pulled away and began to apply her make up. Penny watched as she applied different creams and powders to her face. Penny giggled when her mom dusted a bit of powder on her nose to make her pretty too. As the two of them sat in the bathroom sharing some girl time together, Penny's dad came stumbling down the hallway. He was wearing a white t-shirt and his blue plaid pajama bottoms, his hair was sticking up every which way.
"Lynn, can you keep it down? I have to be up at-" He quietly started. He saw Penny sitting on the counter getting ready with her mom and cut his sentence short.
"Hey Slugger, you should be in bed." He said in a high, friendly voice. He came into the bathroom and picked her up off the counter. As he walked out of the bathroom, Penny caught her mother's gaze. She looked sad, but she was smiling. She waved at Penny just before she was carried out of sight. Her dad tucked her in and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"Wish Bear too, Daddy." Penny pleaded as she held out her stuffed animal. Wyatt kissed Penny's stuffed animal on the forehead and then tucked the bear into the covers. He turned around and closed his daughter's bedroom door. Penny could hear him talking to her mother in the bathroom across the hall.
"I do not want you to be exposing her to stuff like this, Lynn. She's a little girl for Christ's sake!" Her dad scolded. Penny laid in her bed and listened.
"Wyatt, you're making a mountain out of a mole hill, she's fine. She doesn't know what I do at my job." Lynn countered.
"It doesn't matter, Lynn. She's a child and I will not have you exposing my daughter to your brothel job!" He retorted quite loudly. Penny closed her eyes and listened to her parents bicker back and forth. She rolled onto her side and clutched Wish Bear close to her body.
"I wish to be pretty like Mommy when I grow up." Penny whispered into her Care Bear's ear. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep to the sound of her parents arguing in angry hushed tones. Her parents separated shortly after that night and Penny couldn't help but blame herself. If only she would have stayed in bed, maybe they wouldn't have left each other. Penny couldn't get the memory out of her head while she drove home from her shift.
Penny clued in to what her mom did for a living when she was growing up. It wasn't until a pattern emerged and she was constantly being asked to babysit her toddler nephew as a teenager, while his eighteen year old mom left to go make some money to pay the bills. That's all it was, a means to an end. It seemed logical to her that she do that as well when her bills became a little tight.
Tears welled up in her eyes and blurred her vision as she drove. She quickly wiped them away and took in a shaky breath. The look of disappointment on Sheldon's face made her feel sick to her stomach. What she did with him in the VIP room made her feel terrible, but amazing at the same time. This instance most likely solidified his notion of her as a promiscuous woman. He had already pegged the number of men she slept with, she didn't even want to know what he thought about her now.
When she recalled his fingers pressing against her, she almost lost it. She didn't even think Sheldon had a deal, but there he was, pressing his lips against her neck as he breathed in her scent. Their encounter would plague Penny's thoughts for the rest of her days. It was incredibly hot, and she wished she could just stay in that moment with him forever. She recalled back to when they first met, his awkwardness was so cute and Penny always had a thing for tall guys. He seemed to not be interested, so Penny gave up on pursuing him.
She couldn't deny that he was entering her thoughts more and more lately, even when she was dating Leonard up until about three weeks prior. When they had sex, she imagined that he was Sheldon. Fantasies about his long fingers exploring her body filled her head. She knew that if it ever were to happen, the sex would probably be disappointing, but in her fantasies, he was an amazing lover. While having sex with Leonard before they broke up, she imagined his slender body hovering over her while he fucked her. She mistakenly called out Sheldon's name.
When Leonard asked her what she said, she said that they were going to wake up Sheldon. The sex ended on a fizzling note. Leonard became suspicious of her, he thought she was cheating on him. He even boldly accused her of it, asking her to explain her whereabouts on the weekends and why she would come into his bed late at night smelling like other men. Penny couldn't reveal what she was doing for extra cash, so she got defensive and told him to drop dead. They hadn't spoken in weeks.
Penny pulled into the back parking lot of her apartment building and parked her car. She wanted nothing more than to get into a hot shower and scrub herself clean. It was 2:30 in the morning and everything was silent. She tip toed up the stairwell to her apartment, just another landing and she could scrub away her evening. Penny made out pretty well, she took home $750 tonight. She liked working the VIP room because she always made out with tons of cash.
Tonight was the first night she did anything like that at work. She didn't know why she let go of her better judgement and gave into Sheldon like that. Maybe it was the fact it was Sheldon. When his expression changed from disappointment to what could only be described as hunger, a flip switched on in her brain and she was sure, she would have done anything he told her. Penny pulled out her keys and they jangled in her hand. She quickly unlocked her door, tossed her things down and quickly walked to her bathroom.
Penny turned on the shower and quickly got in. She sat down on the floor of the tub and just let the water wash over her. She couldn't help feeling really bad about herself in that pathetic moment. There she was, coming home just like her mother had and washed the sweat of countless men off her body. Penny clutched her knees to her chest and began to cry, her sobs came out uncontrolled and raw. She had to mentally remind herself that she wasn't her mother. The more she tried to deny it, the more the fact stuck out like a sore thumb.
Her heart broke and fell apart. It was like the Penny who she used to be, when she first moved to California with the aspirations of becoming an actress, was washing down the drain. Every time, she washed off the glitter and cologne, a little piece of her would die and would be washed away too. In that moment, she felt like an empty shell of a woman. After her crying was controlled, Penny finished showering and got ready for bed. The soft sounds of very early morning Pasadena street lulled her to sleep. Tomorrow, Penny would just be Penny.
The morning sun flooded Penny's room causing her to stir awake. Her turquoise sheets were twisted around her legs and her hair was a mess of relaxed curls. Penny shot awake at the sound of Sheldon knocking at her front door.
Knock Knock Knock
"Penny!" He yelled through her door. How long had he been knocking?
Knock Knock Knock
"Penny!" She quickly got up out of bed and bolted to the front door.
Knock Knock Knock
"Penny!" Sheldon finished, Penny unlocked her door and thrust it open. She didn't even know what time it was. Probably after 11. Sheldon pushed past her and walked into her apartment. Seeing him after their indiscretion made her feel nervous. He was dressed in his normal attire, instead of the out of character clothing he was sporting last night. In the light of the day, he was just Sheldon and she was just Penny. There was no reason for this to be awkward. It was just two friends, having a casual conversation about how one gave the other a lap dance and how the other finger banged her while she did so. Her cheeks flushed as she moved further into her apartment.
"Sheldon, things got out of hand last night and I think we should forget the whole thing ever happened." Penny said in an attempt to smooth over the situation the two of them found themselves in. Sheldon folded his arms across his chest and Penny could see his forearm flex. Fuck. Why did that have to trigger some primal urge hiding deep within her? She could see thoughts momentarily flash across his face.
"You want me to forget? Penny, that's just something I don't have the capability of doing." He quickly said. It almost sounded like he was hurt by her notion. Sheldon took a few steps toward her, she was standing so close to him. He smelled like laundry detergent and Old Spice. Penny's eyes traveled up his forearms and settled on his blue eyes. Sheldon gripped at her arms and his look seemed to intensify.
"Penny, I will never forget how you felt." Penny licked at her lips, she just wanted to bury her face in his neck and taste his skin. She reached out and touched his cheek, her heart pounded in her chest, this wasn't like before, it wasn't rushed and heated. It was slowly burning, glowing embers singed just under her skin. He grasped at her hand and kissed the heel of her palm. Penny felt her knees go weak, luckily Sheldon was there to wrap his arms around her waist and steady her.
"Sheldon…" Penny softly whispered. Her eyes quickly darted across his face before she brought her lips to his. Their kiss was soft and tender. She wanted to take her time to explore this same but different man that stood in her living room. Sheldon kissed her with uncertainty, she could feel the slight hesitation in his movements as he gently took her bottom lip into his mouth. When his lips parted, Penny gently licked at his tongue. She could still taste the mouth wash that lingered on his taste buds. Sheldon tensed up for a moment while she prodded at the inside of his mouth in between soft kisses. He lightly touched his tongue to her top lip, the shock that flew down her spine made her pull away.
"Penny, I want to do this with you, but I don't think I can." Sheldon quickly said. Penny looked at him with confusion. Why would he say that? Penny pulled away from his embrace and searched his face. He was dead serious.
"What? Why? Sheldon, you were fine like two seconds ago." Penny complained, her voice came out hurt and defensive. She stood in front of him with her arms crossed over her chest.
"It's not that I don't want to. I just can't be involved with someone in your line of work." He confessed. Penny stood there, slack-jawed. She couldn't believe him, how dare he come into her apartment and tell her that he can't be with a whore.
"So you can't be involved with a waitress then? Or do you have a problem with actresses?" Penny asked. She needed him to say it, she needed him to tell her what he really thought of her. She felt the embers that were glowing come to life in a fiery hell blaze. Her whole body was set to light with anger.
"You know what I'm trying to say." Sheldon quietly said. Penny felt the tears sting her eyes. What a fucking asshole.
"You don't even know, Sheldon. Thanks, thank you for coming into my life and judging me when I'm at my most vulnerable." She angrily spat, choking back the tears that were threatening to over flow onto her cheeks. She glared at him and watched as he squirmed in the spot in which he stood.
"Penny, it's not that." Sheldon said trying to reassure her. Penny's warm tears streaked her face. She hated him for making her cry.
"Oh fuck you, I know that you think I'm a whore! Just so we're clear, I'm not!" Penny barked as she took a step toward him. She wiped away her tears, she was not going to let him shred away her dignity.
"I know, you're not! I just don't understand why you think that's an acceptable way to make a living. You have so much more potential than that, you are just too indolent to realize it!" He shouted. Penny scoffed. She quickly grasped his shirt and began forcefully dragging him out of her apartment. Sheldon was pretty tough for a scrawny nerd. He stopped in his tracks and gripped her by the bicep. Penny couldn't believe him.
"Don't! Don't fucking touch me, Sheldon!" She angrily shrieked while trying to loosen his grip on her arm. He quickly put both hands around her biceps and held her still. Their eyes locked and they stared each other down. Penny didn't understand why she felt so incredibly turned on. She felt herself throbbing for him, aching for him to be on her. She forcefully pressed her lips to his and he backed her into the front door, rattling it on its hinges.
Penny grasped at the back of his head while she angrily bit at his lip. Sheldon moaned into her mouth and picked her up into his arms. Penny could feel her shorts dampen. Sheldon pressed her back against the door and he ground his arousal into her. Penny moaned and raked her nails across his back. She quickly buried her face into his neck, nipping along his creamy skin and running her hands through his short dark hair.
Sheldon took her into her bedroom. Penny didn't protest. Sheldon tossed her on the bed and crawled in between her legs. Without missing a beat, Penny tugged his shirts over his head and disposed of them beside her bed onto her already messy floor. Sheldon worked at taking his pants off while Penny shimmied up her mattress to retrieve a condom. While she was digging through her nightstand her ass stuck up in the air, she felt Sheldon's hardness press against her ass. She worked herself onto him while he aggressively tugged at her Hello Kitty shorts.
Penny wanted him inside her more than she could ever comprehend. The need to be devoured by him overwhelmed her. She quickly got up to her knees and took off her shirt. She pressed her back against his chest and allowed him to fondle her tits. Sheldon pinched and pulled at her hardened nipples as he roughly kissed up her neck, his cheek was slightly rugged with the beginning of his 5 o'clock shadow.
"Oh yeah, I like it rough." Penny groaned. Sheldon took her earlobe into his mouth and gently bit down. Penny grasped his hands and rushed to guide them into her shorts.
"Do you ever stop talking?" Sheldon breathed into her ear as he ran his fingers down into her slick folds. Penny lolled her head back and leaned it against his shoulder as he plunged two fingers into her tight entrance. Penny's shaky hands opened the condom while she turned around to look at Sheldon.
She practically drooled at the sight of his thick, hard manhood. She grasped him in her hand and placed the latex over his soft head. She could feel him shudder when she rolled the condom over his tip and down his shaft. Sheldon desperately grasped at her shorts, pulling them down her legs. She suddenly felt shy when his gaze fell to her dewy lips. No time for shyness, Penny.
Penny pushed him down on his back and climbed out of her pajama shorts as she straddled his thighs. Sheldon licked his lips as he placed his nervous hands on her thighs. Penny took his swollen arousal into her hand and pumped her fist along his ridged shaft. Sheldon let out a groan as she rubbed him against her engorged clit. Their eyes met and Penny pressed his tip against her slick entrance.
She cried out as she stretched around his thick head. Slowly, she impaled herself down his length. She could feel him splitting and filling her, in ways she couldn't describe. Sheldon looked like he was going to die. She wasn't sure how long he was going to last, part of her didn't care. Her hips ground against him as she leaned back to give him an eyeful. Penny reached down and began furiously rubbing at her sensitive pleasure button.
Sheldon began thrusting his hips to meet her in the middle. Deep grunts escaped his lips as their bodies met. Penny turned around on his pulsating erection and began to ride him reverse cowgirl. Penny's breaths were coming out hard and fast. She remembered that he had called her indolent; she worked herself along him harder and faster. The anger melted away with every hip gyration. Sheldon grasped at her hips and pulled her onto him hard. She felt him jerk into the condom, as he cried out to a deity he didn't believe in.
She missed out on her orgasm. While he softened inside of her, Penny rubbed at her clit. She cried out as she pinched at herself with her thumb and index finger. Penny's walls tightened around her semi-hard neighbor. Her orgasm rocked through her core and sizzled along her extremities. Penny removed herself from Sheldon and laid down on the bed beside him. He looked over at her with a spent expression, she smiled at his after-sex face. Sheldon propped himself up on his elbow and he stared at her, gently raking his eyes along her delicate curves.
"Penny, please quit your job." Sheldon pleaded as he met her gaze. Penny looked at the sincerity in his eyes and let out a sigh. She knew he was right, she was better than that, instead she had taken the easy way out rather than actually trying.
"Why do you hate it so much?" Penny asked. She knew there had to be more to it than Sheldon just didn't like strippers. He licked his lips and laid down on his back. He took off the condom and knotted it off. As he placed it on his stomach he let out a deep breath he seemed to have been holding.
"When I was a child, my parents got divorced. My father would take me duck hunting with my brother as the court gave him unsupervised visitation rights. I would usually spend that time reading comic books or doing calculus for fun. Afterward, he would make me sit in his vile pickup truck while he frequented an establishment called Ocean Cabaret. He would get quite drunk and then drive me to my mother's house. That's why Penny." Sheldon told her like he was telling her about Quarks and M-Theory. Penny's heart broke for him.
"Sheldon, I'm so sorry. I had no idea." Penny quietly said to him. Sheldon looked at her and he frowned.
"How could you? I've managed to keep that secret my entire life, until just now." Sheldon said factually. Penny pursed her lips and let out a sigh.
"The reason I thought it was alright to take a job like this, was because when I was a child, my mother was a stripper. She took the job when my dad was having a tough year with the crops. She did it to pay the bills, Sheldon, just like I do it to pay the bills." She confessed. Sheldon nodded and looked back up to the ceiling.
"I'm going to make some breakfast, because I'm starving and it's now noon. You're welcome to my shower if you like, Sweetie." Penny said as she got up and put on her robe. Sheldon smiled and got up off her bed. He collected his clothing from off the floor and walked toward her bathroom.
"Penny?" He said while turning around. He held his clothes in front of himself to regain some modesty. Penny smiled at the sight when she turned her head toward him.
"Yeah?" She quickly asked.
"I really do think you have the potential to do something more with your life." He told her. Penny blushed and gave him a half smile.
"Thank you, Sheldon. That means a lot." Penny replied, expressing her gratitude. Sheldon turned around giving her a good look at his ass. Penny broke out into a grin, who knew that Sheldon Cooper had a cute bum? The door to the bathroom closed and Penny let out a sigh. She was really going to miss all the money she was making, but to have a shot at this, whatever this was, she would be a fool to pass it up.
Penny walked out into the kitchen and poured herself a bowl of cereal. She listened to the shower run and couldn't help but think about the man in the shower. Sheldon Fucking Cooper. She just had angry sex with Sheldon. Butterflies filled her stomach when she thought about his slender fingers on her body. She wasn't going to be able to think straight for a week.
