At 6 a.m., cell phone wake-up alarms go off in both aprtments 4A and 4B. One by one, they all rise and begin to prepare for the long day ahead. Everyone showers, gets dressed and the girls prepare breakfast so that the guys can come over and eat with them before they all gather their luggage, lock up each apartment and leave.
"Chop! chop! We have a train to catch." Sheldon rushed everyone down the four flights of stairs and outside to the shuttle bus that was already waiting to take them to the train station.
Once they arrive at the Amtrak train station, they still have about 20 minutes to spare before the train was to depart to San Francisco.
"This is the perfect oppurtunity for us to take a picture in front of the train before we get on it!" Sheldon says excitedly. He finds a stranger to do the job, "Excuse me, good sir. Would you please take our picture in front of this train?" Sheldon asked. "Of course..." the man says as he takes Sheldon's camera from him. The gang gathers together. Each man with his arm draped over his ladies shoulder and everyone smiling big. "Say, cheese!" the man said with a giggle and snaps the photo and hands the camera back to Sheldon. "Thank you, sir" Sheldon said with a smile before everyone else thanked the kind man as well. "Okay, let's go!" Sheldon said as he started walking quickly towards the train.
Once everyone was checked in on the train, Sheldon revealed to everyone, "As you all know, this is going to be a very long day on the train..." Everyone nodded in agreement. "...so I thought it would be wise to rent us a bedroom suite that will accomedate all of us at once if need be. It can be sort of a home base, if you will...a place for us to relax, sleep and/or shower before we arrive in San Francisco if we're not wandering about the train doing other things."
"Wow!"
"Thank you, Sheldon! That's amazing!"
"Fantastic!"
Everyone was very impressed and glad he thought of it. "You're so sweet, Sheldon..." Amy said before puckering her lips for him to kiss her. "I know..." He winked at her.
"So, shall we?" Sheldon asked his group of friends before they followed him to the bedroom suite.
Once there, they all piled inside the suite and placed their luggage into the closet space. It was a surprisingly spacious suite. It featured two sets of bunk beds on each side of the room, a couch that folds out into a bed and two lounge chairs. It also had it's own little private bathroom with a shower.
"Wow, this is really nice. Thanks, Sheldon." Penny smiled at him.
"You're welcome, Penny." Sheldon replied.
"Yeah, this was really good of you, buddy." Leonard said. Sheldon nodded and smiled back.
"This is perfect. We can even get ready for our night out in San Francisco here on the train just before getting there to save time." Raj said.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"So, should we hit the bar?" Howard suggested.
The girls all gave each other knowing looks, like they wanted to just stay in the suite and chill for a while.
"No, you boys go have fun." Penny said.
"Yeah, we'll stay here and relax and chit-chat." Bernie said with a smile.
The girls all choose a place to sit down.
The guys all nodded and started heading out the door. Sheldon was the last one out. He turned around to give Amy and smile and a wink before closing the door which made her nearly go weak at the knees. She turns around and the other three women are looking at her smiling.
"Wow, you two are so much more in love now than when I first met you. That's awesome." Emily said.
"Yes, we are. Thank you. It's been amazing and so great to be back in each others lives." Amy replied.
"Yeah, I bet it is amazing now that you two have sex." Penny smirked at Amy as she got up and walked towards the closet. "Wine, anyone? I smuggled it on."
"Yes, please!" Bernie said.
"Oh, we don't have cups though." Emily said.
"Just use those complimentary coffee cups over there by the coffee maker." Amy suggested.
"Works for me!" Penny said excitedly.
"Anyway, yes, sex has definitely been apart of taking our relationship to a whole new level." Amy said shly.
"Of course. I would imagine so. I'm happy for you both. What a big and important step you both took." Bernie said to her with a smile. Amy smiled back.
"So how has the sex been, Amy?" Penny asked while taking a sip of her wine.
"Pennnyyyy..."Amy was being bashful and looking down.
"Yeah, give us the dirty details." Emily said while Bernie also nodded in agreement.
"Well...it's been great but obviously we still have lots to learn." Amy said.
"...and you will learn. It's perfectly fine." Bernie smiled at her.
"Plus, you can always come to us if you have any questions about anything since we have more experience." Penny smiled.
"Thank you." Amy replied.
"So, Sheldon enjoys the sex too? I'm sorry, it's just that from the moment I met him and learned of his personality and issues he had to overcome, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that he's finally done it." Emily asked.
"Ohhhh, yeah, he does. If only you guys could see his face when we're making love..." Amy replied in almost a trance-like state.
"Annnnnnd, this officially got creepy." Penny said.
Amy stuck her tongue out at Penny and threw a pillow at her.
"Hey! I could have spilled my wine!" Penny said while laughing. The other girls started laughing with her.
"Okay, okay!...now that we've got some alcohol in us. I can admit to something I'd like pointers on that I haven't yet done with Sheldon..." Amy started.
"Oh? Do tell." Bernie replied.
"Um. Well..." Amy started.
"Amy, spill!" Penny said.
"Yeah, come on, tell us..." Emily said.
"Okay! How do you give a man AMAZING head?" Amy asked while smiling and covering her face with her hands.
"Oooooooooo! Hahahahah!" The girls were all shocked and amused by her question.
"Don't worry, Amy. We got your back." Penny winked at her. Amy looked at Penny and shook her head.
Sheldon, Leonard, Raj and Howard all sat at a table in the trains bar area. Each with a beer in hand. They were all having a nice time until there was a little too much of...
"Did you know that the Great Dome Car on this train is the only remaining dome car in Amtrak service? It was previously used on the Chicago-Seattle Empire Builder route when the train was operated by the Great Northen Railway and the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad. It was built in 1955..." Sheldon was boring his friends with his train facts so one of them finally made an attempt to change the subject...
"So, Sheldon, how have you been enjoying sex with Amy?" Howard asked him.
"Why would you care? You were ready to "lose you meal" on the subject last night, remember?" Sheldon replied.
"Look, I'm sorry about that, okay?" Howard said. Sheldon nodded at Howard.
"Yeah, don't mind Howard. He's just jealous because he hasn't gotten any for a while..." Raj started laughing and Leonard joined in.
"Yeah, he spent well over his monthly allowance on action figures and belt buckles and is currently on the no sex punishment." Leonard added on before he and Raj started laughing even harder as Howard looked at them both a rolled his eyes.
"HA-HA-HA! Very, funny, bastards." Howard said to them as their laugher started to die down.
"No, but seriously, Sheldon...how do you feel now that your relationship involves a sexual component?" Raj asked him.
"I'm not sure I want to discuss such a personal topic with you three...but since I have had about three sips of this beer, I think I'm loosened up enough and it will be easier for me to discuss anyway..." Sheldon replied.
"So? How do you like it, Sheldon?" Leonard asked.
"How do I like what?" Sheldon asked.
"Sex! You big goof." Howard replied while shaking his head and smiling.
"Oh! I rather enjoy it." Sheldon said with a smile and taking another sip of his beer.
"That's it?" Raj asked.
"Of course that's it. What else is there for me to tell?" Sheldon asked.
"I'm happy for you, Sheldon. What a special gift the both of you have given to each other and are now able to enjoy like the rest of us. You're one of us now, buddy. " Leonard said.
"Thank you, Leonard. Yes, it is special. I definitely enjoy coitus a lot more than I thought I would." Sheldon replied.
"A special gift? You're starting to sound all mushy like my second wife over here, Leonard." Howard mocked.
Raj looked at him and shook his head before asking, "Ohhhhhh, so you enjoy coitus a lot, huh, Sheldon?" before taking a sip of his beer.
"Yes, I do. So?" Sheldon replied.
"Hey, dude...stop being so shy about it. We're happy for you, Sheldon." Raj said.
"Yeah, we are." Howard added. Sheldon smiled at them both in response.
"Well, if you ever need any pointers, Sheldon...we're here for you." Leonard said.
"Thank you, Leonard, but I know everything I need to know. I can assure you that Amy never leaves the bedroom dissatisfied." Sheldon said before gulping down the rest of his beer and slamming it proudly on the table.
"Wooooooahhhhhhh!" The guys yelled in amusement and started laughing at how bold and open he was being now.
"Hahaha, well, good for you, Sheldon. Cheers, guys!" Leonard holds up his beer. Raj and Howard lift theirs up as well.
"Heyyyyy, my beer is empty. I need another so I can "cheers" too." Sheldon said.
"No, you don't." Howard said.
"You're probably right..." Sheldon agreed while leaning back and relaxing against his seat. "...I'll ask the waiter for a water."
Two hours passed and the guys and the girls were still having a nice time in their same-sex little groups.
"I'm gonna go see what Amy is up to." Sheldon said while getting up to leave the guys behind.
"Okay, Sheldon. See you in a bit." Leonard said.
As Sheldon got closer to the bedroom suite, he runs into Amy in the hallway, who apparently had the same idea he did.
"Amy! What are you up to?" Sheldon said with a big smile before kissing her.
"Oooooo, someone's been drinking. I taste beer. I've been drinking too...wine with the girls..." Amy smiled up at him with her arms wrapped around his waist. "...I came out to see what you were doing and hoping you're having a nice time so far like I am?" Amy said.
"I am having fun so far too. Thank you." Sheldon said.
"I bet the guys were asking you about our sex life, huh?" Amy asked him.
"Of course they were..." Sheldon smiled at her. "...I guess it's to be expected. We're apart of the hippy dippy crowd now." Sheldon winked at her.
"Oh, shut up!" She playfully slaps his arm before pulling his face in for another kiss.
"Hey! Speaking of coitus..." Sheldon started.
"Yes?..." Amy said.
"I wandered away from the guys for a little while earlier and I discovered a railcar on this train that has a completely abandoned second story cabin." Sheldon said, wiggling his eyebrows at her.
"How do you know it's abandoned? and are you implying that we have sex up there?" Amy asked him.
"I know it's abondoned because there are dust covers over furniture among other things. It looks as if it hasn't been used in years. Am I implying that we should have coitus up there? Yes I am..." Sheldon said before kissing her once more, knowing just how to be a tease.
Amy looks into his eyes after the kiss. She's already turned on because of the desire in his eyes. She smiles at him as says, "Color me intrigued."
