Pairings- Slight Sheldon x Amy


"Sheldon." Amy says, almost inaudibly.

Sheldon blinks to get used to the sudden darkness. "Amy?" he asks almost as quietly. "Where are you?"

"I'm right here." she says, gently grabbing Sheldon's ankle. He kneels next to her.

"Are you okay?" he asks.

"Just.. help me get out of here. Please."

Once they get out of the dark room into the light, Sheldon sees that she has been hurt by someone. Who knows who did it.

"Amy..." he says, watching her eyes, not able to look at anything else. "You need help."

"No, Sheldon. I'll be fine. I love you."


***Sheldon's pov***

I wake up in the middle of the night.

Why did I dream that? Why would I ever dream of Amy getting hurt?

There must be a logical explanation for this. Nightmares are usually caused by something that causes fear in someone, and that someone would be thinking of that fear at some point while they're sleeping, causing them to have the said nightmare.

So that must be why I had the dream of Amy getting hurt. Because I'm scared for her to get hurt.

To make sure everything's alright, I decide to call her. It's probably a bad idea, since she's more than likely still sleeping, but it seems like as good of an idea as any at the moment.

"Hello?" Amy's tired voice says a few moments later.

"Are you okay?" I ask somewhat cautiously.

"Yeah." she says. "Why..?"

"Just making sure." I say.

"Alright." Amy says, a smile in her voice. "I'll talk to you tomorrow, okay?"

"Yeah, okay. I'll talk to her later." I say, pulling the phone away from my ear and seeing that Amy has hung up.

'Gosh, what did I ever do to get a girl like her?' I think to myself.

Knowing that I won't go back to sleep, I sit in my spot on the couch and read the book I've been reading.
