Chapter 3: I Should Be Happy Too

"It's been a while since I saw you Sheldon, how are things going with you?" Camille asked, as they sat down in a restaurant to eat some lunch.

"Good, could be doing better," he sighed, and she placed her hand over his bandaged one.

"I miss you Sheldon, I miss us."

"I miss us too, sorry I dumped you like a did."

"Oh don't worry at least it wasn't in a text message, my last boyfriend did that."

"You were dating someone else?"

"Well you kind of broke my heart, but then I was starting to realize that I only love you. And this other guy just filled in that lonely void. So how's the girl you left me for?"

"Well she's happily in another relationship, and she made sure I knew me and her wouldn't go farther than friends."

"I'm sorry about that Sheldon, do you want us to start over? Maybe we can start out as just friends and maybe end up being something more later. I really just wanna be with you."

"I think we should give this dating thing another chance."

"Really?" she asked with a smirk.

Hawkes nodded when his cell went off. He looked at it and got a message from Denver.

Thanks for ditching me for lunch Hawkes, you better have a good reason for it. I really needed to talk to you. It's whatever... something else must be so important on your day off.

Hawkes frowned.

"Hey Sheldon, what's wrong?"

"I ditched my friend for lunch. But it really should be no big deal, she did tell me that she liked me with you."

"Really? When do I get to meet this friend?" Camille smiled.

"Denver Sandusky, you already met her."

"Oh yeah, she's cute, and you can't go for her?"

"Yeah Camille she's the one that I left you for, and you see how that turned out."

"Aw Sheldon, I'm so sorry, if there is anything I can do to cheer you up."

"I'll know where to find you," he smiled. "Do you want to go to my place and watch a movie?"

"Oh, I have to work Sheldon, maybe tonight we can, but you know how well we pay attention to the movie when we're alone."

"It's your fault really," he smiled.

"You are the one who can't resist me."

"Guess we'll see about that tonight."

"I can't wait," Camille winked.


"Hey Denver, why do you look so upset?" Adam asked, as Denver walked in with a frown.

"Well it's like this, Sheldon didn't take me to lunch, and he better have a good reason for ditching me like that."

"Oh I think he had a good reason, he took Camille out to lunch."

"Oh Camille? Really?" Denver crossed her arms. "I was pretty sure he didn't like her anymore."

Adam took this time to smile.

"What are you smiling at Adam?"

"Oh if you only knew," he shook his head. "But if I recall Hawkes did tell me that you said you thought he was perfect for her."

"Well yeah he is perfect enough for any woman, but doesn't mean she's good enough for him. She's a bad influence on Sheldon."

"You seem pretty pissed off about it, are you sure you don't have a thing for him?"

"Are you kidding right now Adam? I do have a boyfriend you know, and he's everything I want. Plus why would I want to risk what I have with Sheldon, a relationship would just screw that up. I am pretty happy where I am."

"Good to get that out of the way then," Adam smiled.

"And none of what I told you gets even slightly mentioned to Sheldon, you hear me Adam."

"Not even that you don't like Camille."

"Not even that, when I'm ready I will tell him I don't like her."

"When's that?"

"As soon as he tells me he's unhappy with her. Whenever that will be. Anyways I have to get to work, glad we had this talk," Denver patted Adam's shoulder. "Glad I finally got a chance to tell somebody how I feel. I can't tell Sheldon, well because it includes him," she said talking to herself. "Hm, maybe I do have a thing for Sheldon," she shrugged, walking away and Adam had a smile on his face.

"I knew it," he laughed, putting his headphones back in and getting to work.


"That's for lunch Sheldon," Camille squeezed his hand as he walked her outside. Sheldon smiles.

"Do you want me to drive you home?"

"No Sheldon, you already did enough for one day."

"Are you sure, I could drop you off, better than taking a cab."

Camille smiled and nodded, "Alright, since you asked so nicely," she kissed his cheek, wrapping her arms around his neck, he lowered his lips onto hers. He pressed Camille lightly against the side of his car.

"Camille," Hawkes moaned as she kissed down his neck.

"I knew you liked that. If you take me home, maybe we can continue this upstairs. I have an hour until I gotta go work," she stated, as her lips brushed against his left ear.

"How about... we wait until... tonight?" he said in between kisses.

She pulled back and grinned, "Can you last that long without me?"

"The question is, can you? You always thought I was hot."

"And I still do," she kissed him softly, before Sheldon opened the passenger side of the car, kissing her cheek and heading to the driver's side. Entering he turned on the car and turned to Camille, leaning in for a soft kiss.

"I've missed your lips," Sheldon ran his hand up her thigh.

"I've missed yours too Sheldon," she licked her lips. "You sure we can't go up to my place for maybe a little bit? It doesn't have to lead to anything."

"Alright, but I'm only staying ten minutes, because obviously I'm a huge distraction for you."

"Can't wait," she kissed his cheek, and Hawkes smirked before driving off.

I guess nothing could be absolutely wrong with my life. Denver is happy, and I should be happy too, Hawkes thought to himself. All Camille needed was another chance.


Okay so how was it he decided that he can't wait forever for Denver, so he's back with Camille where Camille, Hawkes and Denver all find themselves
