Sheldon quickly closed the door behind him, leaned against it and let out a breath he didn't realize he was holding. His eyes quickly scanned the room. Leonard seemed to have gone out as his keys weren't in the bowl. He strode over to the couch and sat in his spot.
His cheeks were still red and they tingled. He put his hand on his cheek and took a deep breath. Why would she have kissed him? Why did she invoke such a strong and unfamiliar emotional response from him? Why didn't he mind her lips pressed against his skin? Sheldon heard keys jingle outside the door and quickly turned on the television. The door opened and Leonard waltzed in and tossed his keys into the bowl. "Hey buddy! Where were you? I ran out of soy milk, so I had to run to the grocery store. I thought you might have liked to come with me." Sheldon looked up at his roommate looking slightly dazed. Leonard moved to the fridge to put away his groceries. "Oh. We aren't due to go to the market for another week, why would you assume that I would've liked to have gone with you?" He looked at Leonard expectantly. "Oh, well, never mind. Where were you?" Leonard asked again. "I was over at Penny's. She was distressed last night and I went over to ensure her psychological state had returned to normal." He replied. Leonard furrowed his brow and cocked his head slightly. "What was Penny upset about?" Leonard inquired in a cocky, jealous tone. Sheldon sighed in exasperation. "Leonard, why do you constantly try to engage yourself in Penny's personal problems?" Sheldon asked. The more Leonard asked about his encounter with her, the more he would be put under pressure to reveal Penny's secret. He did not want to betray Penny, so he hoped he could steer the conversation in a different direction. Sheldon continued. "The both of you mutually ended your relationship two months ago. I'm not sure that I understand why you are constantly concerning yourself with things that no longer affect you." Sheldon smugly concluded. Leonard gaped at his friend. "Forget it, Sheldon." He said defensively. Sheldon excused himself and went to the sanctuary of his bedroom. He had to figure out why Penny kissed him today. It probably meant nothing, but if it did mean nothing, then why was she plaguing his thoughts? Thanks to his eidetic memory, he easily recalled how gently she placed her hands on his chest to steady herself. He could feel her soft lips pressed against cheek as his stomach twisted into knots. Her scent was intoxicating. She smelled like vanilla and cinnamon. The kiss was chaste and innocent, but the way her lips lingered on his cheek suggested otherwise. He felt a twinge of guilt run through him, though there was nothing to feel guilty about. Penny wasn't otherwise occupied in a relationship and neither was he. He had contemplated altering the paradigm of his and Amy's friendship, but he was not sexually attracted to her. He couldn't even begin to imagine being intimate with Amy. Penny, on the other hand was quite aesthetically pleasing, he had felt this way since the day he had met her. The thought of her often assisted in his "weekly maintenance". Amy and Sheldon had an intellectual connection, and he couldn't bear to have that change. Penny didn't have quite the intellectual capacity as Amy Farrah Fowler, but she did keep him on his toes. She challenged his reasoning and they argued. No one had ever argued with Sheldon the way Penny had. She was also quite competent in the social component of human interactions, where he was quite inept in that area. Perhaps she was the Yang to his Yin; the light to his dark. In binary, she would be one and he would be zero. He smiled and lay back on his pillow, closing his eyes. He could hear his heart pounding in his ears. He deeply breathed her scent in. He pressed his lips to her neck and twisted his long fingers into her blond wavy hair. She pressed her body closer and rocked her hips against his. She let out a soft moan as she lightly raked her nails across his shoulder blades. "Penny..." he murmured out loud while pausing to catch a breath. Sheldon's eyes snapped open as he quickly sat up in his bed. He could feel his heart figuratively jump out of his chest. 'Oh dear Lord! Get a grip!' he thought to himself. He ignored his obvious arousal and began to recite the stars nearest to him. "Proxima Centauri's the nearest star, the celestial bodies that follow are: Alpha Centauri A, Toli, Barnard's Star, Wolf 359…" oOoOoOoOoOo 'Sheldon could be such an ass sometimes.' Leonard thought as he plunked down into the armchair what if he and Penny were no longer dating? What business of it was his? Sheldon did sort of have a point though. He really didn't have the right to ask about the private conversations Sheldon had with Penny. In the back of his mind, he knew their relationship was over for good. He knew that it would be erroneous on his part to try to pick their relationship back up where they dropped off. They just didn't work as a couple. The sex was amazing and he enjoyed introducing people to his hot blond girlfriend, but they didn't really have anything in common and they didn't really talk about anything. She would try to talk to him about his work and she would try to understand what he was saying. He would ask how her job was going and he would pretend to be interested in hearing about her serving people food. After there was nothing else they could talk about, they would usually make out and end up in bed. He didn't really like to include her in his activities because he was insecure and thought that she wouldn't be interested. It was painful to try to fake interest in shoes or Brad and Angelina. The relationship fell apart and after a while he asked her what they were doing. She felt that the relationship was not very meaningful, after all they really only had a strong sexual component. They both agreed that they wanted something more and that they couldn't provide that to one another. His phone chimed. It was a text from Priya. He unlocked his phone and read the text. "Hey, I heard you called it quits with Penny. That sucks" Leonard looked at his phone and contemplated his reply. "Yeah. Didn't work out. I'm a trooper though :P" He hit the send button. What was he doing? Why send the emoticon for playfulness? He furrowed his brow as his phone buzzed. "I remember ; ) I was hoping we could get re-acquainted. I'm coming back to Cali next Wed. and I have my own place lined up this time. Are you free next Friday?" Leonard was struck with awe. Last time he and Priya were together, they both had cheated on each other. Her more so than him, but after time he forgave her. What he did was equally as bad as what she did. He mulled it over, and decided what the hell? Things seemed to make sense when he was with her. "I am free actually, how about I pick you up at 7:00 pm, I'll plan a nice romantic evening for us" He smiled and put his phone back into his pocket. Sheldon appeared from his room and he looked slightly flushed. "You're going to have to get your own Chinese food on Friday. I have a date." Leonard said with a wide smile adorning his face. Sheldon pulled out a bottle of water from the fridge and began to complain. "But Leonard, we were going to play Space Invaders on the Atari! Raj and Howard can't make it because they have prior engagements. Now I have to spend my Friday night alone, conquering my own high score? What fun is that?" Sheldon pouted. Leonard just smiled. He kind of felt bad for the guy. "Maybe you could ask Penny to join you. You know, since you two have super-secret conversations and all." Leonard snidely shot back. "N-no we don't! You know I can't keep secrets, so why would we have secretive conversations?" Sheldon glared at him and stammered. Leonard just smiled at his friend's discomfort. "You just saying that just proved my hypothesis." Leonard teased. Sheldon suddenly felt hot and put the water bottle to his forehead "Did you turn up the thermostat, Leonard?" Sheldon said accusingly as he turned to go back to his room. It was so easy to ruffle his feathers. Leonard should have given him a break, but it was just too easy.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
