Thanks for all of the reviews and favorites!
On with the fluffy goodness!
"You really want me to believe that Vulcans kiss with their hands?" Penny asked Sheldon. "What episode does this take place in?" She clearly didn't believe him.
Sheldon looked upset that she would even bring up such a sensitive subject. "It is first established with Spock's very own parents, Sarek and Amanda Grayson, the writers showed us this in the classic episode Journey to Babel."
"Didn't ask for the encyclopedia version sweetie." Penny told him in a flat voice before continuing with the conversation. "Is that the one with the Vulcan dude and the girl with the really cool black looking high collar?"
He looked surprised, "Yes. Good for you." Penny narrowed her eyes at his tone of voice but didn't comment.
Well, she didn't comment on the patronizing tone of voice he used.
"Where in that episode did it say that they were kissing?" She demanded more than asked.
"It is implied in content!" Sheldon responded quickly, "And further backed up by Star Trek Voyager in the series finale when Tuvok greeted his wife T'Pel."
"Have I seen Voyager yet?" She asked, curious.
Sheldon shook his head. "No, right now we are finishing up the original series. Then after you subject me to the television program of your choice, we will begin on The Next Generation." He informed her.
"That's the one with Data?" She asked. Once he nodded in confirmation, Penny continued their conversation. "I still don't see the big deal about Vulcan kissing. They're just fingers." To demonstrate she waggled her fingers in his face.
"Penny." Sheldon starting talking over her giggles, "When was the last time you washed your hands?"
"After dinner, my hands were sticky from the soy sauce I spilled." She told him.
"That's what I thought" He said before grabbing her wrist.
Penny gave a soft gasp as he turned her hand over and brushed the center of her palm with his lips. It couldn't be called a proper kiss, it was more of a light touch. Sheldon gave her a slight smirk when he felt more than heard her slight intake of breath. He slowly brought her palm to his lips again, and gave it several light kisses, slowly increasing the pressure he used. Then he gave a slight lick, more of a flick of his tongue, before moving up to her fingers.
Inwardly quite smug over Penny's reaction, Sheldon kissed each fingertip on her hand. He waited until her hand became lax in his again. She knew what was coming now. Well, she thought she knew what was coming now.
Sheldon lightly stroked the palm of her hand and studied her fingers closely, then he made his choice and lightly bit the pad of her middle finger before pulling it into his mouth and sucking lightly.
He loved moments like this, even though it was his fault that they were few and far between. He loved being able to surprise her. Sheldon hated surprises, but she loved them. He knew he wasn't as romantic as he should be with her, as spontaneous as he could be. Sheldon put up with a lot to be with Penny, and even though she denied it, he felt that she gave up a lot to be with him.
By now Penny had leaned over and was slowly kissing her way up Sheldon's neck to his lips where she captured them almost viciously, she was so eager. She tugged her hand free and Sheldon broke their kiss to stare at her, curious as to why she pulled back. Penny stood up on slightly shaky legs and pulled him up, then guided him to his room.
Later that night, Leonard walked out of his room and headed to the kitchen for a drink and he heard Penny giggle then say, "Please give me another Vulcan kiss Sheldon?"
He made an abrupt about-face and headed back to his room. He didn't want to know what that was about. Tomorrow he was going to ask Sheldon where he got the noise canceling headphones, maybe Sheldon would even give Leonard his if he explained he could hear them.
He didn't really want anything to drink anyway.
