Penny stared at the bronze '4A' sign in front of her, eyes unfocused. This wasn't supposed to happen. None of this was supposed to have happened.

But she had to tell them.

The sounds of a violent battle were raging inside, and yells from Raj for backup reverberated through the floor. Penny paused briefly in her apprehension to be amused that, when there were no women around (or when he was drunk, she reminded herself) Raj could be quite a loudmouth. A triumphant yell brought her back to what she was about to do. Her hand trembling slightly, and feeling as though she were about to be sick, Penny opened the door.

They didn't notice her coming in, all four pairs of eyes locked determinedly on the screen as they destroyed some other group of nerds halfway round the world. She bet those nerds weren't as lovable as hers.

Raj was reacting to the blows he was receiving, sitting one moment and standing the next, his tongue pocking out the side of his mouth in concentration. Howard was sitting on the chair, bent forward as he threw multiple plasma grenades at their foe, muttering 'stay still and die damn you' as he did so. Leonard was standing just behind him in the gap between the couch and armchair. He kept wriggling his nose to push his glasses back up it, not daring to take his hands from the controller in hand. Beside Leonard, Sheldon sat in his seat, back straight, eyes narrowed as he furiously tapped at the buttons, destroying any enemy in sight. He was wearing his wrist guard, Penny noticed.

No, she thought. They couldn't be as lovable as her nerds. Or, she hoped, as understanding…

"Guys?"

No response.

"Guys I really need to talk to y-"

"Busy, Penny. Later." Howard called above the explosions.

That wouldn't work for Penny. She might not be able to force herself over here again. She frowned, her stomach tightening with nerves, and went to stand in front of the TV.

"Guys, I really need to tell you somethi-"

Sheldon hit pause, and glared at her.

"Penny can't whatever little anecdote you have to say wait? We are currently in the Halo battle of the century, and I somehow doubt that whatever it is you have to-"

"I'm pregnant."

Four mouths dropped.

Four pairs of eyes widened.

Four controllers fell to the floor.

Four men's lives changed in an instant.


Yes, ok, so maybe it's not Overly original, but I have this idea..

Anyway. I would love some ideas for a title, please and thankyou?

You can tell me them through the review your going to leave.
