Sweet. Interesting concept. Wonder how the concept of stepping stone relationships works, pastels? Would some relationships be neons? Some jewel tones? Some pastels? Would they intensify? Or worse, dim over time?
Oh this is neat!
So this is a one shot of the colours fading after Amy and Sheldon break up.
Fading.
For Sheldon his relationship with Amy was nothing but great.
In his eyes they had a perfect relationship with the right amount of affection, intimacy and love, unfortunately in Amy's eyes it was a different picture. She felt under appreciated in the relationship, unloved and not at all desired by Sheldon.
Through Amy's eyes the wonderful colours that had filled her world since meeting Sheldon had begun to fade. It made her sad and depressed. She wanted those colours to brighten and sparkle like never before but with each unforgivable comment Sheldon came out with, each time he denied her advances the colours continued to fade.
When Amy decided to take a step back from her relationship the colours were barely visible. She found she was unable to enjoy simply things without wanting to break down.
She just wanted to give Sheldon a little bit of the pain she had been feeling for the last year or so of their relationship but he didn't seem to understand.
Never did she expect that less than a day later she would call off the entire relationship.
It rarely happened between soul mates and was a shock to the entire group. Soul mates had problems of course they were only human but to officially break up was uncommon.
The day Amy broke up with him was the day Sheldon finally began to realise the colours he saw were all a figment of his imagination. They faded within seconds if her saying those dreaded words to reveal their true selves.
He had failed to see how bad their relationship had become.
He spent day after day trying to make things right until he finally gave up. He began wishing he had never met her because knowing what life was like in colour and then going back to black and white was upsetting, he hated the world this way but no matter how hard he tried he could no longer see the world in it's true beauty.
Eventually he and Amy managed to become friends. Each time they would meet they would both see splashes of colour with each laughter or smile that they shared but it would soon fade revealing their true feelings.
When Sheldon got the call from her saying she wouldn't mind becoming his girlfriend again he momentarily got excited until he looked around and saw nothing but black and white. He didn't want to go through the pain of seeing colour again and have it taken from him when he messed up.
"Friends." It was the only word from the many sentences Sheldon spoke that really registered.
She blamed herself, she wondered if maybe they could have worked their relationship out if she simply told him her worries.
Only weeks later she had Sheldon arrive at her doorstep, rambling about songs and heart worms and how much she meant to him.
He leant in and kissed her in a way she had always dreamt he would.
They both briefly opened their eyes too see the beautiful colours appear around them. The most beautiful reds, pinks and purples they had ever seen.
Their world was drowning in colour and glitter.
They were destined to be together no matter what.
They were true soul mates.
They were perfect for each other.
Pulling away they smiled at each other.
"Perfect." They both whispered at the same time.
Sheldon grinned before leaning in once again to kiss her lips.
Let me know what you think.
I'm planning on doing a Lenny one soon.
Thank you for reading.
