Penny broke through her door, and hurried across the hallway to the guys apartment.

"Leonard!" Penny yelled, as she repeatedly knocked on the door. It wasn't long before she answered, wrapped in a robe, as it was only 8:30 on a Saturday morning.

"What's up?" Leonard said, rubbing his eyes.

"A girl from Nebraska just rocked up at my door, and I can't stand her. I need to hid out here for a little while."

"Okay, so if you don't like her, why is she in your apartment?" Leonard exclaimed, still completely confused with the whole situation.

"Well she was engaged to my cousin why she was sleeping with my brother, so she's considered family. It's a long story, so can I just hang out here for a bit… I saw Sheldon leave, and decided to come over, because if Sheldon was here, I think I would prefer to be with Chrissy."

"And Chrissy's the…?"

"Whore of Omaha." Penny interrupted Leonard, clearing up his question.

"Okay, come in." Leonard said, closing the door after Penny walked through to the brown couch. "Would you like a coffee or something."

"That'd be lovely." Penny said, as Leonard returned to the kitchen, flicking the kettle on, and grabbing the milk out of the fridge.

After the kettle boiled, Leonard made two coffees for himself and Penny, he brought them over and sat Penny's on the couch, and sat on the opposite side of their lounge area. The two sat in silence whilst they both sipped on their coffees. Leonard flicked on the tv, and channel surfed for a while, every now and again gazing over at Penny to see if she was enjoying a certain channel. When a small gasp escaped from Penny's mouth, Leonard gleaned that it was the channel she wanted to watch. Leonard was unsure what the program was, but when it went to an ad-break, the words "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" flashed on the screen, explaining the hell that Leonard had to endure. The two continued to sit in silence, for another 30 minutes, until Penny jolted up at the end of the episode, realising that she had left a girl, a girl that she didn't trust alone in her apartment.

"Thanks for letting me hide out here Leonard, I should probably go back and make sure she isn't stealing money out of my wallet." Penny said, with a worried tone. "Not that there's much in there." She joked, walking out the door.

Penny walked out into the hallway, and walked into her apartment. She immediately jumped back, to find one of the worlds most disgusting creatures, by the name of Howard Wolowitz pinned down on the couch by Chrissy.

"What the hell is going on here?!" She screamed, almost vomiting in her mouth.

"Penny please, a bit of privacy."

"You're in my apartment!" Penny pleaded, as she gave up and pulled the door shut. She stood outside her apartment, and could hear the laughs of both Chrissy and Howard, which immediately caused a sharp shiver to bolt down her spine. Mainly of disgust, but also just plain annoyance of the fact that Chrissy let Howard into her apartment.

She walked back across the hall, and knocked on Leonard's apartment. There was no way she was going to listen to the horrible noises that would be coming from her apartment and didn't mind the company of Leonard. After all, he had been the only stable thing in her life at the moment. All her friends had been Clifford's friends, and she had been trying as hard as she good to avoid them lately, in order to also avoid Clifford. It had been a few weeks since she last saw him, and she wanted to distance that gap as much as she could.

She knocked on the door, and it wasn't long and Leonard's face appeared from behind that door with a big grin on his face.

"Couldn't stand her?" He asked, with the grin only growing wider as he saw her annoyed look.

"You won't believe what is happening in my apartment right now!" Penny groaned, walking past Leonard, and returning to her seat from before.

"Howard's getting it on with Chrissy?" Leonard laughed.

"No. Wait, yes. How did you know that?" Penny asked, intrigued.

"Howard texted me, he was looking for you, and I didn't reply, so I assume he just knocked on your door, and meet Chrissy."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Penny asked, now laughing at the whole situation.

"I only checked my phone after you left."

"Oh, okay then. Are you up for another episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians?" Penny asked, immediately seeing the annoyance radiating off Leonard's face.

"Sure" he agreed, just to please Penny.


The two sat in Leonard's apartment for the rest of the afternoon, and into the night.

"So it's Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Kylie and Kendall… right?" Leonard asked, after the sixth episode.

"And Kris is their mom, and they have a younger brother named Rob. Kourtney, Kim and Khloe are to Kris' first marriage, and Kylie and Kendall are to her second. Got it?"

"Sort of" Leonard replied, as Penny clicked on the next episode.

5 minutes in, Sheldon walked through the door, and the first thing was for Sheldon to kick Penny out of his spot.

The three of them had dinner together, as Penny realised Howard was still in her apartment. The thought of what they could be doing, would haunt Penny forever. She would probably have to move, or just burn the entire contents of her apartment.

"Is there anyway I can stay here tonight?" Penny pleaded. "I will have to burn my sheets tomorrow, and I don't plan to see what has happened in my apartment this afternoon."

"Okay, Leonard will make up the couch for you, and I will go to bed. Goodnight" Sheldon ordered, and went to his bedroom.

Leonard handed Penny a pillow, and a blanket, as she set herself up on their lounge.

"Thanks Leonard, and thanks for letting me stay this afternoon. I had a good time."

"Goodnight Penny."

Leonard walked into his bedroom, and instantly fell asleep.


Leonard placed small kisses on Penny's body as she slowly awoke in his arms. He rubbed his hands over Penny's beautiful pregnant belly, and everyday it amazed him that a women as beautiful as Penny agreed to marry him, and was carrying his baby. Everyday was a blessing for Leonard, to spend time with the most amazing person in the universe, and the endless love he shared for her.

"Good morning honey" Penny mumbled, as Leonard placed a passionate kiss on her lips, reciprocating her good morning wish.

"Good morning beautiful." Leonard replied.

"I love you."


"Leonard, Leonard..." Penny whispered, shaking Leonard awake.

"Wait, what?" He replied, slowly coming to his senses, after what he considered an amazing dream.

"I can't sleep, because I can hear Howard and Chrissy from the lounge room. Can I sleep in here?" Penny asked, adding special emphasis to the fact that they were still together. Probably in her bed, doing god knows what.

"Yeah of course, I'll sleep on the couch." Leonard said, pulling the sheets off his body, and realising that he was still excited from his earlier dream. He immediately pulled the sheets back over his body, hoping that Penny didn't notice, but as he looked up at her, and saw the redness in her cheeks, he realised that she did.

"No, no. It's okay, you can stay here. You have a double bed, we can share." Penny smiled, walking to the other side of the bed, holding back a small chuckle.

"Okay." Leonard said, getting back into his bed, as Penny did the same.

"Goodnight Penny."

"Goodnight Leonard."
