Sheldon sat in the driver's seat of a new crimson red BMW 135i Coupe. He rubbed his hands along the steering wheel, attempting to get a feel for the car. He glanced over at Leonard who was sitting in the passenger seat. Leonard was still dumbfounded that Sheldon Cooper was taking him car shopping.
Sheldon had a discussion with Penny about purchasing a car, and they both decided that it would be economical for him to have one, especially a new one, in case Penny's ever gave up on her. He felt uneasy about buying a new car when Penny's car was on its last legs, but she told him that her car would hold up until she got a job. Right now she couldn't afford a new car, and hers held sentimental value, so she would drive that thing into the ground.
"What do you think Leonard?" Sheldon asked as he glanced over to his friend. Leonard sighed. This was the tenth dealership they had been to. They had test driven five cars and Leonard was beginning to get tired.
"Sheldon, this car is very nice, can you just pick one so we can go?" Leonard whined. He had also said that about the last three Sheldon sat in. Sheldon pouted. This was a difficult purchase and Leonard was being no help. He silently wished he had taken Penny, but due to her unavailability, Leonard should have sufficed. He wasn't sufficing.
Sheldon got out and looked at the car. He had already made his decision when he sat in the driver's seat, but he had to logically go over his options. This car was quite expensive, but as his expenses accounted for 46.9% of his after tax income, and the remainder was put into a small savings account, and after saving for practically his entire career, he could afford it.
He looked around for a moment and flagged the saleswoman over. She stalked toward him in her six inch heels, tight skirt and slightly opened blouse. She leaned up against the red vehicle and tossed her voluminous brunette hair over her shoulder. She smiled and put on her seductive charm.
"What can I do for you, Sweetie?" She asked as she leaned against the hood of the car. Sheldon cringed at her use of that pet name. She sounded so transparent when she said it. He discreetly looked her over. Sheldon was a smart man, and he knew exactly what was going on.
"I would like to purchase this motor vehicle, so I would appreciate it if you removed your persons from it." Sheldon said in a monotone voice. She eyed him for a moment and stood up. She smiled sweetly and batted her false eyelashes at him.
"It's a very sexy car, Mr…" she said trying to coax his name out of him. He pursed his lips, he hated being called Mister.
"It's Dr., actually" He corrected her. Her eyes lit up and she unconsciously bit her lip.
"My apologies Dr…" She said again questioning him for his name. This time she delicately touched his arm. Sheldon's eyes darted down to the foreign hand that was caressing his bicep. He removed her hand from his arm and quickly disinfected himself.
"It's Dr. I Want To Buy This Car. Now, I would like for you to cut the cost by 25% to make up for the depreciation that will happen the second I drive it off the lot. I also noticed that this particular car has 400 miles on the odometer so I would like for you to take off an extra 10% to make up for all of the people who test drove this car." He said in a commanding tone. Her eyes grew wide. She never encountered anyone who was not eating out of the palm of her hand. He took a step toward her and she stopped breathing for a second.
"Also, I would like to inform you that your promiscuous sales techniques won't work on me. Now, please draw up the paper work and keep in mind that I will be reading over every single sentence you put into the document." He said. She looked at him like he was crazy. Sheldon raised his eyebrows and motioned for her to get on her way. He didn't have all day.
The saleswoman nodded her head and turned around to the finance department. Sheldon felt satisfied, he knew he would get what he wanted. The saleswoman came back with the sales contract and once everything was to Sheldon's liking; he took the keys and drove off the lot.
Sheldon drove back to his place, satisfied with his purchase. He parked in Leonard's old parking spot, which he now claimed as his. He got out and admired his car for a moment before heading into the building.
Sheldon unlocked the door and walked into 4A. He tossed his keys into the bowl and walked into the living room. He noticed a message on their answering machine. He hit the play button and walked into the kitchen to get a drink from the fridge.
'Hi, this message is for Sheldon. This is Penny's dad, Wyatt. When you get a chance, call me back.' The machine recited the time and that there were no new messages.
He quickly erased the message and looked at the phone as if it was going to bite him. Why would Penny's father be calling for him? He picked up the phone and called her dad. The phone rang twice before the line picked up. Sheldon secretly wished that it would have ringed a third time.
"Hello?" Penny's dad answered. Sheldon suddenly got nervous, as he had never spoken to Penny's father before. He cleared his throat and found his words.
"Yes, hello, I'm looking to speak with Wyatt." He said as he sat down in his spot.
"This is Wyatt." Her father replied. Sheldon hated small talk.
"Hi, Wyatt, this is Dr. Sheldon Cooper returning your phone call." He said, he could feel his pulse in his throat.
"Oh Sheldon! I'm glad you called back. I just wanted to have a few words with the man that stole my daughter's heart." Wyatt replied.
"Penny has told me so much about you, and now that you're living together, I just wanted to give you the talk that all fathers have with the men that their daughters have decided to live with." He continued.
"Sir, I'm not really one for banal chit chat, so I'm going to just cut to the chase, so to speak. I love and respect your daughter very much and I can assure you that she is well." Sheldon said.
"Look, Sheldon, she's my little girl and I just want to make sure that you're taking good care of her." Wyatt said sympathetically. Sheldon nodded, he remembered when his mother bombarded Penny with the very same talk.
"Wyatt, Penny is an overly independent and very resourceful woman; she does not need someone to take care of her. However, despite those endearing traits, I will do my best to ensure that she is well taken care of." He replied. Sheldon felt the nervousness slowly fade away as he carried on the conversation with her father.
"I'm glad to hear that your intentions are good." He paused before continuing. "Sheldon, I have to get going, you kind of caught me in the middle of something, but I would like to make my way out there for a visit soon." Wyatt said. Sheldon chose his next words carefully.
"Sir, before you go, I just need you to know that I intend to marry your daughter one day. I want to spend the rest of my life with her." Sheldon confessed. All of the nervousness dissipated when he told her father his true intentions. He was very confident in his statement.
"You're a good man, Dr. Cooper. We'll talk soon." He concluded. They both said their goodbyes and Sheldon hung up the phone. He sighed and sunk back into the couch, holding the cordless phone in his hands. That was the first time he had audibly admitted how he felt about Penny. He knew that he felt that way the moment his eyes met hers when he surprised her in the airport.
He placed the phone back in the cradle and stood up. Sheldon walked over to his laptop and sifted through random Wikipedia articles. His mind kept returning to Penny and soon he found himself going from reading an article about Cochoa birds to looking at engagement rings online. He definitely wasn't ready to purchase one yet, but Sheldon liked to be prepared for whatever he chose to do. He did find one that he thought she would like, so he bookmarked it, even though he could quickly recall the website address if he wanted.
Sheldon's heart rate accelerated when he heard Penny's keys jingle at the front door. He froze up when she entered their apartment. His hands hovered over his keyboard and his back stiffened. She looked over at him and he looked back at her, wide eyed and suspicious. Her eyes narrowed at him as she placed her keys in the bowl and shut the door. He swallowed the lump that was quickly forming in his throat and realized that he needed to minimize his internet screen.
"Hey.. they cut my section a little early. Is that your car parked beside mine?" She asked while moving slowly into the apartment. Sheldon glanced at his computer monitor and quickly found the Wikipedia article he was reading before he got side tracked. He looked back at her and quickly nodded.
"Yes, though it might not be the most practical choice, I figured what's life without whimsy." He said with a small smile. Penny smiled back and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. She leaned in, kissed his cheek and pressed her head against his.
"Well practical or not, that car is fucking hot." She said in a playful tone. Her breath was hot in his ear, he closed his eyes and a chill ran down his spine. He felt the familiar flutter of butterflies in his stomach.
"Maybe you can take me for a ride sometime, Doctor." She continued softly in his ear. She looked up at his laptop. He was so cute, reading about birds. Perhaps he was trying to get over his fear of them, or maybe he was researching to better know his enemy. She pressed her lips against his temple, then walked toward the bedroom. She needed to change out of her gross work uniform.
Sheldon let out a sigh of relief when she left the room. He was slightly turned on. He took a couple of deep breaths to calm himself down. Arousal was replaced by guilt when he thought about looking at rings for a woman who he wasn't even sure wanted to get married. He cleared his internet history, he didn't want to have her find his recent searches if she did find her way onto his computer. He needed to have a talk with Penny.
