The Red Vine Divergence

"I'm telling you, Sheldon. Twizzlers beat Red Vines any day!" Penny told Sheldon as she sat back on the sofa.

"Twizzlers beat Red Vi- Would you listen to yourself?" Sheldon answered in shock. "In what universe does the waxy, flavorless taste of Twizzlers outclass the perfection that is Red Vines?"

"I'm sorry, but you're not going to change my mind. You might as well give up now." She threw her hands up dismissively.

"Sheldon Cooper does not give up." He walked over to the sofa from where he was standing at his whiteboard and grabbed Penny's wrist.

"What are you doing?" Penny asked, curiously. The firm grip on her wrist made her stomach drop and she licked her lips without thinking.

"I'm going to show you just how much better Red Vines are than Twizzlers." He sneered at the last word and pulled her off of the sofa toward his bedroom.

"Why are we going to your room?" Penny asked in anticipation. She wasn't sure what she was hoping for. She cursed her recent dry spell in her own bedroom. Sheldon didn't answer as they made their way through the doorway. He sat her down on the foot of his bed and turned around rifling through his closet. All sorts of naughty thoughts ran through Penny's head, but she shook them loose. This was Sheldon, after all. Sure enough, he turned around with about ten boxes of Red Vines in his arms.

"What are you going to do with those?"

"We are going to go through each of these boxes until you admit Red Vines are better."

"Nope. I don't want to and you can't make me."

Sheldon glared at her. "How can you make such a statement as the one you declared in the living room without even trying a Red Vine? Go on, have one."

"No."

"Try one!" he repeated more firmly.

"You'll have to tie me up and force me before I'd try one." Penny's eyes widened. She had no idea why she said that.

Sheldon looked down dejectedly. "Very well. Have it your way."

Penny smirked victoriously. She loved it when she won an argument with Sheldon. She sat quietly and watched Sheldon fiddle with the Red Vines. She noticed he was tying them together into a long rope. She thought for a moment that he was trying to make one super long Red Vine for his eating pleasure but then she frowned as she noticed he had made several long Red Vine ropes. She then remembered the last thing she said to him.

"Sheldon, what are you doing?" He didn't answer her as he tied the final knot, checking to make sure it was strong. He then grabbed Penny's wrist again and pulled her up and sat her closer to his headboard. "Sheldon?"

He still didn't say anything as he pushed her shoulders back, gently forcing her to lie down on the bed. He grabbed her arm and tied one of the Red Vines around her wrist. Penny was in too much shock to resist and just watched as he tied the other end of the candy rope around the vertical bar that attached the headboard to the bed. He silently and deliberately moved to the other side of the bed and did the same to her other arm. Sheldon stepped back too look at his handy work.

A small amount of reality seeped into Penny's shocked brain and she lifted her arms to try to break free. Even though she tried, she couldn't seem to work her arms loose. How the hell did he do that with candy?

"As you can see," Sheldon finally spoke, his voice deeper tinged with a hint of passion. "Red Vines are strong. Had I used Twizzlers, the waxy coating would have caused the rope to slip free with the slightest bit of resistance."

Penny couldn't answer. She couldn't think. Here she was lying on Sheldon's bed tied up with candy as he stared down at her coldly. When Sheldon made a sudden move toward her, her breath hitched. He climbed on top of her, straddling her legs and holding her down. She couldn't move if she tried. Although the weird thing was, she didn't try. Not even when Sheldon unbuttoned her blouse and pulled it open. His long fingers traced the top of her bra before gripping the edges and roughly pulling it down, exposing her breasts above it. The stretched bra forced her breasts up and her nipples pointed toward the ceiling. Sheldon reached behind him while still straddling her legs and took out another Red Vine. Turning back he looked at her while he sucked on the end of the candy. Her breath became ragged and her stomach tied in knots as she looked into Sheldon's eyes. He was as cool and as calculative as ever. Damn him. She was not going to let him win this one.

"Sheldon," she started but she was interrupted by his mouth on hers. He didn't begin the kiss shyly and he was already thrusting his tongue into her mouth feeling his way around. She kissed him back passionately, tasting the Red Vine he had been sucking on. Although she wouldn't admit that she liked it, she was going to enjoy every second of this side of Sheldon. He leaned into her and Penny could feel his hardness sticking out of his pants and digging in between her legs. So, she was having an effect on him after all. Their lips parted and Sheldon sat back.

"So how does it taste?"

"How does what taste?" She answered back, coyly.

Sheldon frowned and put the Red Vine back into his mouth. After it was sufficiently wet, he took the Red Vine and traced it around and over her nipple lightly. She gasped at the contact and she felt the warm wet spot spread in her panties. After a few minutes of running the candy over her areola he leaned down again and took the tip of her breast into his mouth, sucking up the residual flavor. Penny let out a moan against her will. Sheldon traced his tongue around her breast and made his way to the other side. He played with her nipple until it was as erect as the other. She moved her head from side to side, breathing in rapidly and letting out an occasional moan.

When Sheldon suddenly moved back, she let out a small noise of frustration. The tall Texan let his knees rest in between her legs and pushed them apart with his own. Penny yelped in pleasurable surprise. She tried not to wiggle in anticipation as his hands went to the buttons on her shorts. He delicately undid the row of buttons and curled his hands around the top of her shorts and her panties. Penny held her breath in anticipation as Sheldon moved out of the way so he could pull her bottoms down her legs. She lay naked and exposed and very turned on. He stood up and carefully folded her clothes and put them on his dresser. He ate the rest of the Red Vine while she shivered, though she wasn't sure if it was because she was cold or because she wanted him so badly.

Sheldon pulled another Red Vine out of its box and crawled back on the bed working Penny's legs apart again and sitting between her knees. He trailed the candy up and down her thighs while she whimpered and finally moved the vine to stop at her opening. He lightly moved it up and down her vagina and she bit her lip and whined.

"Oh God!" She said out loud as he moved the Red Vine into her slit. Her hips bucked as he slid the red candy in and out.

"Red Vines are thick have clearly defined ridges, unlike Twizzlers. I'm sure you wouldn't gain nearly as much pleasure from the reedy excuse for candy as you are from this." Sheldon spoke as if he were trying to tell her about quantum mechanics.

He stopped just as suddenly as he started and moved up to match her hips with his. He pulled his clothes off in a hurry and entered her with a sudden thrust. He growled and she yelled in ecstasy. They began to move together, slowly at first, but quickly picking up the pace. A mixture of grunts and moans and names filled the air as Sheldon's thrusting became more frantic. Penny's breathing grew erratic and she perched on the edge of orgasm. Her vision became dim and she felt herself tighten around him and she was ready to burst.
But then he was gone. He slid out of her quickly and she cried out in frustration. He sat back between her legs and held her legs apart. She tried her best to pull her legs back together, hoping one more touch would send her over the edge, but he held her tightly.

"Don't make me tie your legs as well," Sheldon said his voice gravelly. His words echoed in her head and her muscles clinched again thinking about it, but she slowly relaxed. She was still so close to coming. He moved back on top of her, taking care not to disturb anything between her legs.

"Oh God, please Sheldon, please!"

He picked up the Red Vine that had been inside her and held it to her mouth.

"Just taste it."

She clamped her lips shut and moved her head to the side. Sheldon smirked.

"Fine," he breathed. He lifted himself off of her and once again held her legs apart. While Penny felt like she was going mad with desire, Sheldon just sat there looking at her.

"Sheldon, please?"

"Taste it."

"Please!"

"Taste it."

"Fine!" she practically screamed.

Sheldon smiled as he slid back on top of her and held the Red Vine to her mouth. She slowly opened her mouth and allowed him to slip the candy in. She clamped her mouth down around it and sucked on it, moaning in pleasure. Sheldon's eyes widened and he clinched his jaw when she looked at him through hooded lids. He slid the candy back out of her mouth when she took a bite.

"How is it?" Sheldon finally managed when he got his voice back under control.

"It's…amazing." Her eyes flashed at him.

"Better than Twizzlers?" He smirked.

"Much better." She sighed and he smiled.

The Red Vine lay forgotten on the bed as he thrust back into her. It was all it took to make her body and mind explode in ecstasy.

"I'm going down to the store. Does anyone need anything?" Leonard asked as he pulled on his hooded jacket.

Sheldon stood up from the chair at his desk and pulled out some money from his wallet. "Would you please pick a box of Red Vines for me? I included extra cash so you can get an additional box for Penny."

"Penny?" Leonard looked over to the blonde sitting on the sofa watching America's Top Model. "I thought you liked Twizzlers."

"Yes," Sheldon answered for her, arrogantly. "Well, it took some convincing, but I think she's seen the light. Wouldn't you agree Penny?"

Penny looked at him with his big dumb grin and thought back to a few weeks ago when he "convinced" her. She was still slightly peeved that he'd won that night. She looked at Sheldon trying to wipe that smug look off of his face with her eyes.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," she replied.
