Hey everyone! So I've had this story in my head for weeks now and I have finally put it into words! I hope you all enjoy. And can I just wish another congratulations to Mayim for her win at the Critics Choice Awards! She really deserved it! Now give her an Emmy!
DISCLAIMER: I do not own The Big Bang Theory or any characters within it. I wish I did though.
He had been noticing it for days. The snapping. The yelling. The crying. A lot of crying. Whenever he asked her what was wrong she'd just snap at him again. He figured that an impromptu date night would make her feel better. And it did. Sheldon ordered pizza. They sat on the sofa, laughing, eating, talking and even a little bit of kissing.
"Thank you for coming tonight. To be honest I wasn't sure you'd say yes." Sheldon said as their lips pulled apart.
"Why would I say no to an unscheduled date night?" Amy laughed slightly.
"Because you've been incredibly cranky lately." Sheldon chuckled. The smile wiped from Amy's face.
"Excuse me?" Amy frowned.
"What?" Sheldon asked. What had he said wrong?
"You're calling me out for being cranky?" Amy was furious.
"Well to be honest, yes. You've been easily irritable for the past two weeks and I know it's not your mensies. So unless you've been PMS'ing for the last two weeks then I don't really know what's wrong with you right now." Sheldon stated.
"You know what, I'm done for tonight." Amy said, standing up to leave. Sheldon stood up quickly and grabbed her by the wrist to spin her back round.
"Amy, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you upset. But you've been making me feel completely worthless for the last couple of weeks and I just want to know why!" Sheldon exclaimed. He was frustrated. What was Amy's problem?
"It doesn't matter, Sheldon." Amy sighed, releasing from his grip to get her coat.
"Yes it does. Something is bothering you and as your boyfriend, I deserve to know what is making you upset!"
"Sheldon! Just leave it." Amy said, walking to the door.
"I don't want to leave it!"
"Well too bad. Goodnight, Sheldon." And she left, slamming the door so hard Sheldon swore he felt the apartment sway a little.
Sheldon barely slept that night. He was dreadfully worried. Something was seriously bothering Amy and he had a feeling that last night made everything astronomically worse. He tried calling, texting, tweeting, messaging, video chatting. Everything. Amy had cut herself off it seemed. He was sat watching Doctor Who when Leonard walked in.
"Hey buddy." Leonard smiled.
"Hello." Sheldon replied, sombrely.
"I know I'm gonna regret asking this but what's up now?" Leonard huffed, sitting on the chair next to the couch.
"I'm worried about Amy. We got into a big fight last night and now I don't even know if she got home safe or anything!"
"You tried going round to her apartment?" Leonard asked. He could see the concern in Sheldon's eyes.
"She won't want to see me." Sheldon sighed. "But I am really worried about her. Maybe I should just go over to check she got home safely? Leonard, can you take me to Amy's please."
"Okay fine. But I'm waiting in the car." Leonard replied.
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
No reply.
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
*knock, knock, knock* "Amy?"
Still nothing.
"Please, Amy. You don't have to talk to me. Just let me know that you're safe. I've been worried all night." Sheldon pleaded through the door.
"Go away." He heard. It was her voice for sure.
"I don't want to go away, Amy. I want us to talk about everything." Sheldon replied.
"What happened to me not having to talk to you?" Amy pointed out. Her boyfriend sighed loudly.
"You know what? Fine. Don't talk to me. Don't tell me what's making you angry. You sit in your apartment all day letting your emotions get the better of you like they have been doing for the past two weeks. I'm done trying to sort this out. It's a lost cause." Sheldon yelled. He was mad. Really mad. He could feel the frustration bubbling out of him. He turned around to leave but stopped in his tracks when he heard a door open behind him.
"Okay. You win. Come inside." Amy sighed.
They both sat on the sofa in Amy's apartment and stared at the floor. Neither of them could look each other in the eyes. It took a full two minutes before Sheldon broke the silence.
"I'm sorry for offending you last night. I really didn't mean to do that."
"It's okay." Amy whispered.
"I'm just worried about you, Amy." The physicist said, scooting over slightly to hold Amy's hand. "Don't bite my head off when I say this, but you have been getting really angry very easily for the past couple of weeks."
Amy quickly released his hand and stood up to walk to the kitchen.
"See, you're doing it again right now." Sheldon groaned, standing up to face her.
"Maybe I'm mad because you keep pointing out how miserable I'm acting!" Amy shouted.
"I'm sorry, Amy but it's true. I'm not going to sugar coat it. You've been treating everyone else completely fine but you've been treating me like C-R-A-P!"
"Really, you can't even say 'crap'?" Amy shook her head.
"That's not the point. Just tell me what I've done or what I've not done but should have. It's not fair that I'm being left in the dark, Amy!" Sheldon yelled.
"I'm mad because you're the reason I'm in this position!" Amy roared.
"WHAT POSITION?" Sheldon screamed.
"I'M PREGNANT!" Amy cried loudly before gasping and covering her mouth.
Sheldon's eyes widened. She's kidding, right? Amy can't be pregnant.
"Is it mine?" Sheldon asked.
"Are you serious? Of course it's yours!" Amy could feel the tears forming in her eyes. How could he think for a second that the baby wasn't his.
"B-b-b-b-but we used protection?" Confusion was evident in Sheldon's voice.
"Protection doesn't always work." Amy stated. Her tears were threatening to spill.
"When did you find out?" Sheldon asked, walking to the other side of the room.
"I missed my last period so I took a test and went to the doctor for confirmation. That was two weeks ago." Amy was terrified.
"Why didn't you tell me before?" Sheldon turned and looked over at her.
"Because I was scared! You hate things not being planned. You hate babies. I'm beyond terrified that you're going to leave me!" Amy was crying now. "I'm sorry, Sheldon."
"Sorry?" Sheldon walked up to Amy. He sounded angry. This was it. He was going to abandon her now.
"YOU'RE SORRY?" He looked her straight in her tearful, terrified eyes before kissing her hard on the mouth and lifting her in the air, spinning her as he did so. Their lips pulled apart and Amy could see Sheldon had tears in his eyes.
"What?" Amy asked. "You aren't angry?"
"Angry? Why would I be angry?" Sheldon laughed, holding her waist.
"Because it's unplanned and you don't even want children?" Amy was baffled.
"When did I say I didn't want children?" Sheldon asked.
"You don't like kids."
"I didn't like the thought of coitus either, but clearly I changed my mind about that." Sheldon smirked.
"But you get annoyed by babies and children. Even your own nephew ma-" Amy was interrupted by a quick kiss from Sheldon.
"This is different." Sheldon placed a hand on Amy's stomach. "Growing in there is one of the best things that will ever happen to me. Growing in there is more than just a kid or even a progeny for that matter. In there our baby." A tear fell down Sheldon's cheek. "I'm gonna be a daddy!" He shouted with joy.
Amy felt an immense amount of joy grow inside her. But then she remembered something which made her smile disappear again.
"What's wrong?" Sheldon asked.
"How are we going to raise a child if we don't even live together?"
"We won't have to. Move in with me." Sheldon grinned.
"Are you sure? I mean you tend to freak out when this subject is mentioned."
"Amy, we're having a baby. Of course I'm sure. I want you to move in with me."
"I love you." Amy whispered.
"I love you too. So much." Sheldon replied, picking her up and kissing her once again.
