I'm back! I've been thinking about this for a while now and here's the first chapter!

This one is dedicated to fifty and hook for making me write again!

"Can you believe it's been 5 years since our first date?"

"Well, I actually can.. you know… Eidetic memory?"

"It's a figure of speech Sheldon!"

"I know… How about we resume what we were just doing?! He looked at her expectantly

"You know I love you and our make out sessions but I have to go home earlier tonight"

"What? Why?" He had a sad look on his face but Amy knew she had to be strong and couldn't stay there

"I have an early start tomorrow even though it's Saturday. I have a new study starting tomorrow and I need to get some rest and get my paperwork done before it"

He looked somewhat hesitant and she hate lying to him but in that very moment it was for the best, her head wasn't clear and being around him, on that couch kissing like teenagers, was not helping at all.

"What if…" You could see he was searching for a reason to get her to stay "You stay over tonight?" He was negotiating now

"Sheldon, we're not making another fort and there's no way I'm sleeping on the couch with such a big day tomorrow!"

She took a deep breath; trying to get some space from the man she loves was being much more difficult than she initially thought.

"That wasn't what I was suggesting; my suggestion was that we shared my bed…" He looked both exciting and scared and she looked surprised.

"Sheldon, I love you and any other day I would've said yes but not today"

"Oh alright, don't worry" He discretely checked his pocket to check if the ring was still there and took a deep breath when he realized it was.

She got up from her spot, gave him a quick kiss and in a matter of seconds, she was out of the door.

Sheldon stood there in shock at what happened; his plans to propose had just gone down the drain.

Leonard and Penny were over at 4B so he had the apartment to himself. He took the ring from his pocket to admire the ring and said "it's really beautiful" out loud to himself. In that moment he decided what he was going to do: he was going to her house and propose.

Quickly wrote a note to Leonard and went to catch the bus when he realized Leonard's car keys were still in the apartment, so he decided to drive.

It took him around 10 minutes to get there by car. He sat in the car for a few minutes trying to gather himself, what he was about to do was going to either make or break him. If she said yes he'd be the happiest man alive, if she said no he had no idea what to do next.

He opened the door and stepped out, he knew the code to her apartment door so he quickly got in front of the apartment 314 but before he knocked on her door he heard her talking to someone, he wasn't the type of person to listen to conversations but what got his attention was the mention of his name.

"No honey look, I don't think I can do this anymore"

Honey?! He had never heard her call anyone honey! Who is she talking to?

"I'm tired. I just left his apartment and I had to get out of there quickly; my mind is going at 100 mph! It's been 5 years and what we've been through I think I deserve more, I've had enough"

His nerves have reached a dangerous level

"No honey, come by my place tomorrow, we can have a day like we used to! Just us! Yes, I love you too!"

That was it.

*knock knock knock*

He heard her getting up from her couch and unlocking the door.

"Sheldon…"

The sight in front of him felt like a punch in the face.
