So I found this on my laptop earlier and with a few tweaks I thought I would upload it and see what you guys think. This is my first ever Big Bang Theory FanFic but I welcome constructive criticism. Please let me know what you guys think x


Penny had been fretting all day. She had been feeling sick for over a week and finally found out the cause of it this morning. She was pregnant. She hadn't been able to focus on work today and had chosen to take the day off since she was so spaced out. Amy and Bernadette had noticed their friend was not herself but when asked Penny would just tell them she was fine. She couldn't tell them she was pregnant without telling Leonard first.

The blonde was nervous about telling her boyfriend that she was pregnant, she didn't know how he would react. As it neared 6pm she began nervously pacing around her apartment. Leonard would be back any minute and he would undoubtably come and see her before they went over to 4a to eat with their friends. Like clockwork Penny heard her apartment door open minutes later but she couldn't stop pacing. She had no idea how this would go.

Leonard had come to get Penny and tell her that they already had the food but when he found her pacing her apartment his mind floated back to Bernadette and Amy telling him something was wrong with Penny. He couldn't help but immediately start worrying about his girlfriend. She had always been confident so to see her like this was strange to the scientist.

"Penny?" The short scientist called out to the tall blonde gently not wanting to startle her. "Penny!" He called louder when she didn't stop pacing. At that, she did still and turn to look at her boyfriend. It was then that Leonard saw the worry and panic in her eyes. It unsettled him greatly. "What's wrong?" Leonard asked, not completely sure he was ready to hear the answer.

But he only began to worry more when Penny's eyes filled with tears. It wasn't like her to be so emotional but the blonde couldn't help it. "I just... I went to my doctor this morning because I hadn't been feeling well." She started to explain, unknowingly making Leonard worry even more. A trip to the doctors that you have to tell your partner about was never good in the scientists eyes. It usually meant very bad news. Taking a deep breath the blonde decided to just tell him and get it over with. "I'm pregnant." She stated, looking down at the floor.

Her and Leonard hadn't been back together for very long, around one year, and this was a huge step for them. Even though she knew he wasn't like the other guys she dated, she had half expected for Leonard to accuse her of cheating and call her various name, to get angry and say he didn't want this responsibility yet. So when he didn't say anything for a while she slowly raised her head and was surprised to find him smiling. "Are you sure?" Leonard asked. He didn't want to get his hopes up if it could be a false alarm.

Nodding Penny lifted her head to look at him properly. She watched cautiously as Leonards smile got impossibly bigger before he walked towards her. She new Leonard was a nice guy but she was expecting the worst, so she couldn't stop the squeal that escaped her lips as the scientist lifted her off of the ground and spun her around.

It was an action Penny immediately wished hadn't happened though as the minute her feet were on the floor she was running to the bathroom. The blonde made it there just in time to throw the contents of her stomach into the toilet bowl. Leonard was by her side almost instantly, gently moving her hair out of her face and holding it at the base of her neck, with his other hand rubbing soothing circles on her back. Leonard hated seeing Penny ill but he was still unbelievably happy that she was pregnant.

After a few minutes Penny had stopped throwing and Leonard helped her stand on her wobbly legs so she could rinse her mouth out before leading her back to the couch. "Sorry." Leonard apologised to his girlfriend. "You feeling better?" he asked her.

"Yeah." Penny responded. "So are you happy about this?" She asked.

"Of course." Leonard stated like it was the most obvious thing in the world. "Penny I'm so happy. It's the best thing I've ever heard. Just so you know I'm going to be there for you thoughout everything. You won't be doing this alone. Are you okay with this though? A baby is a really big step." The scientist asked.

Penny sighed gently. She should have known Leonard would react like this. He was such a great, caring guy she wasn't sure what she had done to deserve him, but she was happy he was there for her. "I freaked out at first." The blonde admitted to her boyfriend. "But I got used to the idea throughout the day. I'm happy but nervous as well." She told him.

Leonard smiled as he gently took Penny's hands in his own. "It's okay to be nervous. I bet everybody is when they first find out but we will deal with this together." He told her and the two shared a quick kiss. "Ready to go have dinner or do you want to stay here and have something?" He asked and she smiled before standing from her couch. As Leonard stood the couple shared another brief kiss before heading across the hall to join their friends, Leonard feeling like he was on cloud 9 and Penny feeling a lot more at ease knowing Leonard was okay with this and would be there to support her.
