Chapter 2 - The Friendship Conundrum

On Saturday morning when Penny's initial horror had passed she smiled and laid her head back down on her pillow, leaving her arm

across his chest. Penny thought about the night's events. Although it was only a kiss they had shared, it had lasting effects on Penny. She could

not deny that just thinking of it gave her heart a flutter. She had to ask herself, "Am I with the wrong person?" She thought to herself that he

looked very cute lying there across from her. Sheldon came to and looked over at Penny. It was clear that he was confused momentarily and

then remembered how he had gotten into Penny's bed. He blushed, feeling foolish for his behavior the night before, and also for his current

position under her arm holding him. "Morning, Moon Pie" Penny said cheerfully. "Good morning, Penny" Sheldon replied. "But don't call me that.

Only my Meemaw calls me that." "How are you feeling?" Penny said smiling. "Alright. I am very sorry to have imposed last night. I should be

going now." Sheldon could not ignore that he desired to stay in Penny's bed for a while longer. She had been so kind to him the night before

and her presence genuinely comforted him. Although he wished to deny it, Sheldon felt a void for having lost Amy. If he thought honestly to

himself, he knew that he would be happy to have Penny fill that role. "Not only has she been a good friend to me" Sheldon thought "She is also

quite beautiful. She is a good person who I have grown very fond of." These things he knew to be true, but Sheldon also knew that Penny had

no interest in him, and he accepted that. He sat up to go and Penny sat up too. "Wait Sheldon, you don't have to go" she said. She put her

hand on his shoulder gently. He sat with his back still to her and she then hesitated. She wanted to turn him around and kiss him. Not only kiss

him, but pull him back into bed and under the sheets. "I must go Penny, but thank you for having me. I am indebted to you for your hospitality

and kindness." He walked out of the bedroom and towards the front door and Penny followed behind. He turned around to say goodbye and

again could not meet Penny's gaze. He felt an undeniable shyness and cursed his adolescent behavior. Penny looked at him lovingly. "Alright

then" Sheldon said. "Goodbye Pen.." His goodbye was cut off as Penny's lips warmly covering his own. She embraced his body and held onto

him with strong intent. Sweet kisses followed one another and Sheldon, at first shocked, pushed his analytical side away and accepted Penny's

loving embrace. They stood in the doorway kissing each other passionately. Sheldon had never kissed anyone this way before, not even Amy.

He placed one hand behind Penny's neck and his other on the small of her back. He could not help but notice the feminine curves in her body.

Penny let go of her inhibitions. She knew this was right. She held onto Sheldon and kissed him tenderly. When his hands started finding her

body she ran her tongue along Sheldon's bottom lip. Sheldon parted his lips, opening his mouth slightly, and let his tongue slide into her mouth

responding to her own. Sheldon tilted his head and allowed their kiss to deepen, their tongues twisting and sliding along each other. Penny's

tongue was soft and sweet in his mouth. He couldn't define the feelings that were running through his body. He felt wonderful and terribly

aroused. Penny could feel Sheldon harden beneath her. She pushed him back against the door and rubbed her body against him, continuing to

kiss feverishly. Sheldon cried out. Her touch was amazing. "Take me into the bedroom" Penny said, breathing heavily. Sheldon could only nod,

following behind, and looking fascinated at her beauty and trying to contain his excitement. He pulled the bedroom door closed behind him.
