Disclaimer: I do not now, never have, and never will own the Big Bang Theory.
A/N: It is my personal belief that Sheldon was a bit upset when Amy was aroused by Zack. I don't think Sheldon was romantically or sexually jealous, but merely that he felt betrayed by someone that he had thought of as being close to his equal. With that said, this fic explores both possibilities.
As this is my first venture into the Big Bang Theory fandom, constructive criticism would be especially welcome.
He isn't jealous, exactly.
Jealous. Hmph, ridiculous.
It's just… he'd thought that he'd found a fellow highly-evolved being, another member of his species, as it were. So it is most disappointing to discover that Amy Farrah Fowler is as much a slave to her baser urges as every other homo sapien on this planet.
What next, he asks of you? Hand-holding? Kissing? … Coitus?
No thank you.
And don't think he'll be forgetting her juvenile insult of Kolinahr any time soon, despite the fact that she seems to have finally accepted its virtues. "Cheap Science Fiction", indeed!
Really, her accusations of jealousy are patently preposterous.
So why do they remain in his mind, taunting him?
(Her hand against his was not entirely unpleasant.)
Well, that's odd. Why would he be thinking about that? It's hardly relevant to his current musings.
(He decidedly doesn't think about the surge of pride that he felt when Amy decided against a physical relationship with that overgrown baboon. (Really, the man thought that a starfish's fragmentation was the equivalent of rising from the dead. Fer cryin' out loud, there's stupid, and then there's downright moronic. (Even Penny's too smart to be with that "beefcake".)))
The thought that Amy, whose intelligence nearly matches his own, might engage in a carnal relationship with the man had been insupportable, that's all. If nothing else, she should have thought of her future progeny; Zack's DNA would severely depreciate their level of intellect. What a waste of genetic potential!
And it wasn't the fact that Amy Farrah Fowler had felt carnal urges that had made him strongly consider dropping her as a friend; rather, it was the fact that she had seemed unable (or unwilling) to suppress them. After all, as his mother would say, "the flesh is weak". But giving in to that weakness…
Well, if everyone did that, this world would be in sheer anarchy.
… Bazinga!
Ah, he does amuse himself sometimes. The world already is full of anarchy, no doubt due to the human race's inability to control its baser instincts.
("That should hold me over for a while," Amy had said, stumbling shakily away from Zack. Only, clearly it didn't. If it had, she hardly would have performed an experiment with himself, now would she? (What if she goes back to that moron?))
No, Dr. Sheldon Cooper does not approve of Penny's erstwhile sexual partner. Not for Penny, and certainly not for Amy Farrah Fowler.
But he's not jealous.
Don't be ridiculous.
