The Acceptance Speech
Summary: Sheldon Cooper's Nobel Prize acceptance speech and the stories behind it. (Shamy and lots of friendship between the gang members)
Disclaimer: I don't own the Big Bang Theory and make no profit of this story.
Chapter 1: Prologue
Sheldon scans through the large audience before spotting the few familiar faces he's searching for.
Leonard offers him a reassuring smile, Penny seems to be cheering (suppressing emotions is something she has never found necessary), Howard offers him thumbs up while Bernadette and Raj appear to be crying from joy for him.
And then there is Amy.
Among a crowd of a thousand he still fixates his gaze on her. She nods at him and then smiles. Sheldon is mesmerized, finding how a simple gesture can say more than a thousand words. Even after so many years he still finds it astonishing how much of an effect she has on him. What they have he portrays as little miracle and not a scientific one.
Their eyes met for a few brief seconds and the theoretical physicist sees all the support he needs in those bright green eyes.
Clearing his throat he begins his speech, recounting the road that has brought him to this evening.
Boy, has it been a long road.
Author's Note: Just the prologue, following chapters will be much longer. This idea popped into my mind and so I decided to explore what it would be like for Sheldon to recount his road to winning the Nobel. Pairing will be Shamy but there will be interactions between him and the rest of the gang and his family. I've always wanted to write something cute and fluffy and well…here's me trying to.
Please review, feedback is a lovely!
