THE AWAKENED FORCE

Chapter One

Her hand feels war, but not sticky and to be honest, even if it was, he'd still hold it firmly in his, germs be damned. Their breathes are slowly returning to normal. Sheldon turns around to his left side to look at his girlfriend. Her sight almost gives him a heart attack because even he van recognize her thoroughly sexed up look. The knowledge that he's been the one who did this to her makes his body react again.
Amy turns around as well. Their hands are still clasped together and soft smiles dance around their lips.

"That even topped the tiara, Sheldon," Amy says and gently strokes her thumb across the back of his hand.

"I'm glad," he tells her before leaning forward and pressing his lips against hers. It's a soft kiss, gentle and loving and afterwards he rests his forehead against hers. Apparently, unscheduled kissing is something they do now. Thinking about the Relationship Agreement reminds him that coitus is strictly forbidden, but since their breakup his beloved Relationship Agreement has somehow become completely unimportant.

"I love you," Amy says, effectively pulling him out of his thoughts.

"I love you, too." Amy's stomach reminds him of his earlier dinner plans. "Do you want to go out for dinner now? I'm starving and going by your stomach, I think it's safe to say you're hungry as well."

His girlfriend nods. "Yes, I definitely can eat. I don't want to go out though. Are you okay with ordering in?"

He's alright with that. "What are you in the mood for? Thai, Indian, Italian?" Deciding to get up, Sheldon looks for his clothes. As he's more himself again, he finds that he'd like to take a shower , clean his body and put on some fresh clothes. Realizing this won't be possible, he begins twitching.
Amy notices.

"Sheldon," she starts, making him look at her again. Amy still has that glow on her face. It makes him smile thinking that he's been the one to put it there. "As I knew beforehand what you were planning on giving me for my birthday, I asked Penny to pack a bag for you, just in case. It's in the bathroom."

Love floods him at once. Amy is perfect and he loves her endlessly. Even now she's looking out for him, caring for him and his needs.
The need to kiss her is so strong again that he can't simply help himself. He learns into her again.

"Thank you," he mumbles as he kisses her. Amy's hand comes up and gently takes hold of his cheek. Their lips caress each other sweetly and he sighs contently. Who'd have thought he'd come to like this so much?

"Take a shower. I'm going to order some Italian," Amy says when they've pulled apart. Her green eyes sparkle happily and for once, Sheldon is sure he's done something right in their relationship.

He finally gets up. Feeling Amy's gaze following his naked form causes him to blush, but he forces himself to continue his way. They've just spend the last two hours naked in her bed, making love, touching each other everywhere. It'd be ridiculous to feel shy about his nudeness now. Nevertheless, he's relieved when he finally reaches the bathroom. Sheldon closes his blue eyes and his eidetic memory instantly supplies him with every incredible aspect of their lovemaking. He feels the tingles and these indescribable urges arise again. Taking a deep breath, he openes his eyes and notices his bag resting next to the shower. Quickly checking its contents, Sheldon realizes that Penny not only packed fresh underwear and clothes, but also his set of Thursday PJs. Does that mean he's supposed to spend the night? Does Amy expect him to? Is he okay with that?
He doesn't know. To be honest, Sheldon didn't plan that far ahead. He decides to prolong that decision and steps into the shower. The warm water does wonders to him. He carefully cleans himself and feels how he calms down. He realizes he doesn't feel any different now that he's played his v-card as Howard would put it. If anything, he feels closer to Amy. Merely thinking about her makes him smile. He rinses her shampoo out of his hair, turns of the shower and steps out to dress.

When he steps into her livingroom area, Amy's making tea. Not quite knowing what to do, Sheldon stops somewhere between her couch and kitchen. "Hello."

Instantly, Amy turns around and smiles at him. "Hi. How was your shower? Do you feel better?"

He nods, biting his lip. "How do you feel?" While dressing, he remembered Leonard telling him earlier how losing their virginity was an even bigger thing for girls and how he was supposed to look out for her. After said talk Leonard gave him a pack of condoms.

Amy steps closer to him, handing him a cup of tea. "I'm fine. In fact, I'm great. Thank you for asking." Since Amy seems to be in a good mood, Sheldon guesses it's a good time to ask her about tonight's sleeping arrangements.
"I saw Penny also packed my Thursday PJs," he tells her and quickly realizes it must have completely come out of the blue for Amy because her green eyes widen for a moment and then he believes to notice some uncertainty in them.

"Sheldon, you were very brave tonight and climbed a large milestone in our relationship. If you'd rather sleep in your own bed tonight..." She smiles tentatively and shrugs her shoulders as she trails off.

"I...I haven't decided yet," he tells her and Amy nods.

"Alright then. Dinner should be here in a few minutes. Why don't we watch a movie? Maybe Star Wars on Netflix?"

He feels love filling him up again. "No, it's your birthday. You can choose."

In the end they settle on Evolution, an older movie which contains both biology and science fiction. Their dinner arrives five minutes into the movie. They eat, sitting close, their knees and tighs brushing. Some time later, Amy cuddles up to him and Sheldon finds he doesn't mind one bit, so he wraps his arms aroun her and rests his head on her hair.

When he wakes up, the movie's long finished. He carefully checks to find Amy must have fallen asleep as well.

"I guess that answers where I'm going to sleep tonight," he murmurs to himself. As gently as he can Sheldon tries to wake Amy. It doesn't take long until she blinks sleepily at him. "Sheldon?", she asks, clearly disorientated and confused.

"We fell asleep on your couch," he explains and watches as Amy fully wakes up. "Come on, let's go to bed. It's late and while I took off work tomorrow, you have to get up early. "

Half an hour later they are back in her bed, this time for entirely innocent reasons. He's on the right side again because he doubts he'll like having her touching him the whole night. Nontheless, he finds that he's okay with holding their hand like they did right after their lovemaking.

They are both asleep within minutes.
