Authors Note: Hey Shamy fans. It's been a little while since my first fic and I thought I'd try my hand at a multi-chapter fic. This could be cute, this could be terrible let me know. I'll try to update every few days for so. This will probably be around 3-4 shortish chapters.
Disclaimer: I do not own The Big Bang Theory.
Amy has been away on a science expedition in South Africa for six months. She was selected to study the neurological responses in monkeys with some of the top neurobiologists in her field. She is due to come home in a couple days. Everyone has missed Amy, even Howard needs his Neil Diamond buddy and Raj needs his wing women after a while. The whole gang has been keeping an extra close eye on Sheldon, who didn't look it, but was missing her the most. Everyone knew Sheldon had feelings for Amy, but they found out just how deep in her absence. He has just been different these past few months; more reserved and less enthusiastic about his various Marvel addictions.
Six Months Earlier
"Clothes?"
"Check."
"Toothbrush?"
"Check."
"Latest copy of Neuron?"
"Check."
"Six months' worth of tamp-"
"SHELDON! I appreciate your helping me pack but I think I have it covered."
"I know, I know my women can handle herself… but Africa is very far away might I remind you and if you forget anything don't think I'll be rushing to help."
"My hero" Amy replied sarcasm dripping from her voice.
"Anyway I should get going I have a lot of loose ends I need to tie up before I leave tomorrow."
"OK, see you tomorrow." Sheldon said with a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes.
"Amy wait."
Amy turned to face Sheldon.
"Yes Sheldon?" Amy said her voice filled with curiosity.
"It's nothing… see you tomorrow. I'll be picking you up at precisely 7:30."
"Alright Captain."
The next day at the airport.
Amy had twenty minutes till she had to board the plane. The whole gang gathered at the terminal to give her a proper send off. The ride to the airport had been surprisingly quiet. Sheldon insisted on sitting in the back with Amy and was quiet the whole trip. Penny and Leonard along with Amy of course were surprised when he grabbed Amy's suitcase and grabbed her hand, leading her to security.
Their relationship had progressed in the past few months after that Valentine's Day kiss. Sheldon seemed to reach for her more and it still shocked Amy every time. He could be so affectionate with a look or a simple caress. Words or extensive physical contact were not needed to know how he felt about her.
"Flight 221B to South Africa is now boarding."
"I guess this is it." exclaimed a tearful Penny.
"I'm going to miss you guys so much. Thank you all for coming. I really feel loved by all of you" said Amy.
The whole group gave Amy a big group hug with the exception of Sheldon.
Amy said goodbye and hugged everyone individually until finally she reached Sheldon.
"See you in six months Doctor Fowler."
"I look forward to it Doctor Cooper."
Blue and green eyes meet for extensive eye coitus and Sheldon did something unexpected. He pulled her into a hug and whispered in her ear:
"Skype me every day. Have a nice trip Amy."
Amy simply nodded and buried her head deeper into Sheldon's chest. The moment was just so intimate, especially for being in public. The gang was torn between staring at them with bug eyes or tearing their eyes away. No one looked away.
"Awww the Shamy is too sweet" cried Penny as a tear rolled down her face. Looking at her two best friends, she could see love and adoration in both their eyes.
"Final Call for flight 221B to South Africa."
Amy took one final look at her boyfriend before grabbing her suitcase and boarding the plane.
Goodbye Sheldon
Gahhh the feels. It gets more fluffy I promise.
