Leonard walked up the stairs and pressed his key into the lock. Priya had asked him to stay the night after their date and he didn't hesitate to agree. They spent the day in her apartment without clothes and with plenty of whipped cream.
He opened the door to his apartment and found a sleeping Sheldon and Penny on the couch. Not wanting to wake them he delicately placed his keys into the bowl and padded into the kitchen. He poured himself a glass of juice, sat at his desk and examined the sleeping duo. She was slumped over on him, her head resting on his hip. Their hands somehow found each other and had intertwined. Leonard had never conceived that he would ever see anything like this. He contemplated the notion of Sheldon and Penny, together, as a couple. They were exact opposites but somehow they worked in theory. Leonard had often observed in his field that opposites attract. Perhaps, it worked with people too. Penny was a negatively charged electron attracting Sheldon, who was a positively charged proton. Leonard could imagine them as a couple, the way they fought and challenged each other made sense. The more he thought about it, the more he thought that they kind of were already couple, but they just didn't share the romantic aspect of the relationship. He focused on their intertwined hands and thought that they kind of looked cute together. That would never happen though. Leonard was pretty sure that Sheldon didn't have a deal. Sheldon was probably the larval form of his species. Some day he will spin a cocoon and emerge two months later with moth wings and an exoskeleton. As Leonard contemplated the "relationship" that would never be, he noticed Sheldon shifting in his spot and pulling Penny closer to him. She was now nestled into his arms and resting on his chest. Leonard smiled at the snuggling "couple" and returned to his work on his laptop. As he was researching the scale dependence of twist-3 Quark-Gluon Operators for single spin asymmetries, he noticed Sheldon stirring out of the corner of his eye. He looked over to the couch and watched as Sheldon realized that he was cuddling with a very ill Penny on the brown leather sofa. Sheldon quickly scanned the room and spotted Leonard in his desk chair watching him. He moved the pillow that was cradling his neck underneath Penny's neck and shimmied off the couch. "Where were you Leonard?" He questioned in a hushed tone. Leonard smiled and cocked his head. "I was out with Priya. We had a lovely evening and I decided to stay the night, and the day." Leonard said with a smirk. Sheldon looked offended and shot him a disgusted glare. "I was not inquiring about your sexual conquests, Leonard. Please spare me the details of your spending time with Raj's sister." He practically spat. Leonard smiled at his roommate. Sheldon continued. "Leonard, I am sick and I wish that you would have concluded your daily activities sooner as I have been forced to turn our apartment into a quarantine zone." Leonard's eyes widened as he jokingly put his t-shirt over his nose and mouth. "Is that why you've been snuggling with Penny?" Leonard inquired through his shirt. "Because you are "both sick"?" He teased. Sheldon looked over at his sick neighbour and quickly smiled. He turned his head to Leonard and was met with a smirk and raised eyebrows. "Leonard, it's not like that." Sheldon defensively countered. "We are plagued with a bacterial contagion. Who got whom sick is irrelevant, but we were just seeking the comfort of someone familiar. And besides, she knows my routine and knows my specifications when I'm ill." He concluded. Leonard gave an understanding smile. "Whatever you say, Casanova. And by the way, I know how to take care of you too, y'know. You wouldn't have sought comfort with me and I sure as hell wouldn't have snuggled up to you." Leonard rationalized. Sheldon felt a flush of embarrassment rise up into his face. Why would Leonard have referred to him as Giacomo Casanova, the 18th century womanizer? He huffed and turned on his heel stalking toward the bathroom. Leonard padded over to Penny, who was sleeping on the couch. He gently shook her and her eyes fluttered open. She looked around in confusion. "Sheldon?" She asked while she was still half asleep. "Sheldon's in the bathroom, how are you feeling?" Leonard asked. Penny rubbed her eyes and ran her hands through her hair. "I'm fine Leonard, I'm still feeling sick though and my neck is kind of cramped." Leonard gave her a quick smile "I'm not surprised that your neck hurts, Sheldon's hip doesn't really compare to a microfiber pillow" She squinted her eyes at him and opened her mouth to speak and Leonard didn't know what to say. He quickly smiled. "Never mind. I'm sure that sore muscles are just a symptom of the bug you've caught." He quickly said. Penny got up from the couch, stretched and re-wrapped her comforter around her. "Do you think you can take care of him for the rest of the night?" She asked while suppressing a yawn. Leonard nodded. "I'll be fine, you go get better." He said. She smiled and left the apartment. Leonard returned to his laptop and Sheldon re-appeared in the living room with his laundry basket. Leonard looked at him and furrowed his brow. "What are you doing, Sheldon?" Leonard sighed. "Leonard, it's 8:30 pm and I'm doing my laundry. I'm already behind schedule. What do you think I am an invalid who can't adhere to a schedule? What else do you think I would be doing?" Sheldon asked flatly. "Oh, I don't know, maybe resting, trying to get better?" Leonard replied in defeat. "I'm not a hippie, Leonard." With that Sheldon left for the laundry room.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.
