a/n: So, I've been in the process of typing this for a while, not complete so I will update as often as I can and whenever I finish. I have the first few chapters or scenes done already, so all i can say is enjoy(:
P.S. I don't own any of the characters or stuff like that, leave that stuff to Chuck Lorre and Bill Prady.
Chapter 1
Staring at his whiteboard now, full of equations in various colors, he felt somewhat relieved, but not totally. He was a man of science, and his equations always bubbled up the joy he had within him. Any day besides today you could ask him what makes him happy or calms his nerves and he would respond with "Oh, just my equations on my board." Today was different. Staring at the equations scrabbled on the board, he felt a knot tie in his stomach, and he felt his chest begin to hurt. His eyes burned and all he wanted to do was lay down and do absolutely nothing. Whatever had Dr. Cooper like this was a mystery to him.
Sheldon had been staring at his board for quite a while now, trying to decipher the mysteries of the universe, but not getting very far. His mind kept wandering to a certain Dr. Fowler and everything that attracted him to her. That vixen, always distracting me.Today was not the day, so, capping his marker and tossing it onto his desk, he plopped into his chair and sighed heavily. He contemplated the idea of going to Penny with his situation, but quickly declined upon the thought, because she was most likely suffering through a massive hang over as she had taken the girls out late last night to the 'club'. Normally, he would go to Amy to talk things out, but since she was among the partiers of the night that probably wasn't feeling well this morning, he was forced to either figure it out him self of go get help.
Wolowitz, Kootherpolli, and Leonard wouldn't prove to be much help, as Wolowitz and Kootherpolli would most likely tease him for his sudden realization of feelings towards Amy and Leonard didn't seem to have much experience with the woman either, as he never seemed to keep Penny tied down and under control. He certainly was not going to go to his mother or Meemaw or any of his family members for that matter on this situation, and for a while he considered taking to buss home and disappearing into his room for quite a long time, but there were three obvious flaws in his plan. One, he couldn't just take the buss home, he didn't have his buss pants and the thought of leaving work to get on a buss without his buss pants was terrifying all together, but if he asked Leonard or one of his friends to pick him up and bring him home, he would receive endless questioning as to why and he didn't want that. Besides, as Penny, Bernadette, and Amy were probably all intoxicated still, they wouldn't be able to pick him up and Rajesh and Leonard were working, so that wouldn't work either. He could ask Wolowitz, but since it was early in the morning, if he did ask him to pick him up on his day off, he would most likely be sleepy, and driving sleepily is more dangerous that driving intoxicated.
The next problem he ran into with his idea, was that if he were to go home and disappear into his room for a long time, that meant that after a while, the others would soon begin to become worried, as he was sure he was the center of his social circle that he had formed with the help of Leonard, Rajesh and Wolowitz. If this were to happen, most likely Penny would get involved and she and Leonard would come knocking on his door, wondering why he was in there for so long. If he refused to come out, Leonard would more than likely phone his mother, which he absolutely did not want to happen and she would definitely find some way to drag him out of his bedroom whether he liked it or not.
However, if he were to go disappear into his room for an extensive amount of time, that's the time he would not get to spend with his Amy, and he did not want that. Perhaps he could retire early for work and call a taxi; after all he did have his disinfectant with him. He sighed and refused to continue the thought. There were so many possibilities that he thought through that by the time he was done and realized that he was still at work, it was well past lunch time. That was odd, but at least he was that much closer to being able to go home for the weekend. That's when he finally remembered it was Friday, and it was vintage video game night. However, even that didn't cheer him up.
After sitting in his completely silent office for a while longer, there was a knock at his door. He reluctantly got up and stood by the door. At that moment, he did something that he rarely ever did- he hesitated. "Who is it?" He called. There was a raspy voice in reply on the other side of the door. "It's Leonard! Sheldon, it's time to go." For a moment, he was startled that it was already time to go. He decided not to fight it though, seeing as how he had gotten little work done today and he probably wouldn't get any more done. He grabbed his jacket that was hung over the back of a chair near him and he turned the knob to open the door. In front of him was a ragged looking Leonard, glasses askew and matted hair on his head. He held his car keys in his hand and his free hand was balled up into a fist.
Seeing the state Leonard was in, Sheldon shuttered. "Did you happen to participate in girl's night last night as well?" He thought this was a pretty accurate assumption considering Leonard's current appearance. Leonard replied with sarcasm that Sheldon missed. "No Sheldon, I missed anything could happen Thursday so I could go hunt Elephants at the Super Market with Penny." "That's preposterous." Sheldon replied. "Yesterday, Penny had taken herself, Amy, and Bernadette out for shopping and then drinking. I received a whole text explaining the details from Amy on Comic Book night. Leonard, if you're going to lie right to my face, at least make it believable and consider the facts." Leonard rolled his eyes at Sheldon's statement and sighed. With the Anger pushing in his throat, he almost growled at Sheldon. "Of course I spent the night with Penny, Amy and Bernadette at girl's night Sheldon! With Raj and Howard gone into work late, the thought of being alone with you on Anything Can Happen Thursday was not something I wanted to experience." Sheldon visibly winced at Leonard's statement and Leonard seemed to visibly calm down seeing Sheldon look so terrified.
Leonard had turned to walk towards the building's exit and Sheldon mumbled some things under his breath before following him. The car ride was painfully silent for Sheldon wanted nothing more than to leave. It would be about another ten minutes before they even got remotely close to their apartment. However, they were right down the road from Amy's apartment. Sheldon wasn't sure he could handle a drunk or hung over Amy, but anything seemed to be better at this point than this silence between him and Leonard. So, while they were at a red light Sheldon cleared his throat and spoke up. "Leonard, would you mind dropping me off at Amy's? There are some things I wish to discuss with her." He honestly didn't plan on discussing anything with her, and he pondered the idea of what he would even have to offer if she wished to discuss something with him. It was the slightest lie towards Leonard and Sheldon could feel his eye twitch. He hoped Leonard didn't notice.
"Uh… Sure I guess…" Leonard replied, although in his head he was jumping with joy at the thought of a Sheldon-free evening. That joy was soon replaced with curiosity at what Sheldon planned to discuss with Amy and that curiosity was soon over ridden with confusion, as to why Sheldon needed to question anything in his relationship at all. Meanwhile, Sheldon had his neck turned to face the window so Leonard couldn't see his face turn a scarlet red. He was desperately trying to cover his obvious erection and it was not working to well. He was getting infuriated because now he could no longer even enjoy a simple yet awkward car ride without Amy coming into his thoughts and causing him to become aroused. This would not do. He had to get rid of his erection before he faced Amy. If it did not go away by the time they arrived at Amy's, he would need to go somewhere where he could do they unthinkable- self abuse. He may have to live with not taking a shower afterward as well. This thought frightened him as he shuttered.
Leonard had noticed Sheldon turn scarlet because he really wasn't good at hiding it, but he decided not to question is, as it was probably just Sheldon being Sheldon. Luckily, he did not notice Sheldon's erection. After a few moments more of waiting, the light had finally turned to a bright green and Leonard sped ahead, turned after a few miles and then turned again into Amy's apartment parking lot. Just as Leonard had pulled the car into a parking spot and shifted the gear into park, Sheldon turned to him, pale in the face. "Sheldon, are you sure you're okay?" Sheldon had been reversing Kohlinar in his mind and he had recited all of the elements forward and backwards twice to try and calm his arousal, but it didn't work. He had abandoned the thought of self abuse and now he just thought it would be terrifying to face Amy with his present condition. The thought of Amy being hung over soothed him in this aspect because she might not notice now, although he was not sure how much of her intelligence she would be able to provide to him given if she was hung over.
"Yes Leonard, I assure you, I am fine." His tone sounded rather robotic. "Thank you for bringing me here, I will phone you if I need a ride back." He tipped his head toward Leonard in indication to a nod of thankfulness and he exited the car, all the while trying to hide his arousal. Once he had gotten out of the car and crossed the parking lot, Leonard had shifted the car into reverse and muttered to himself that Sheldon may have just started his own problem that he couldn't get out of. Dismissing the thought until later, Leonard looked over his shoulder, only to find Sheldon nowhere and the parking lot clear. Then, pushing on the pedal, he slowly backed out into the parking lot and sped off into on coming traffic on his way home.
