Since this story keeps going back and forth through the lives of Leonard, Penny and their family, I probably should give an indication of what time period. This story consists of two parts. The first part is in (the story's) present time, the second around Penny's 40th. Another thing about the second part: it's my first attempt at some smut; if you don't like that sort of thing, it really doesn't add much to the story, so feel free to skip it. If you do like that sort of thing, I hope you'll find my attempt worthy.
I don't intent to write more M-rated things, so I'll keep the story at it's current rating. Hmm, maybe there needs to be an Alphabetical Coitus/Lust Enumeration. Don't think I could write 26 of these, though.
As always: don't own a damn thing, don't make any money with this.
D is for Desirable
Penny snuggled in close to Leonard, glad that after weeks of not having him next to her in the bed, she could finally fall asleep the way she had gotten used to over the many years they'd been together.
He had been released from the hospital late this morning, even though they still hadn't figured out what exactly was wrong with him. It scared her immensely, having figured out that loss of motor functions could lead to loss of autonomous motor functions. But she didn't want to think about it, not now. She wanted to just lay here next to him, enjoying being able to feel him again, to hear his heartbeat.
"I missed this," Leonard said, pulling her even closer, impossible as that had seemed.
Penny looked up at his face and smiled. "Yeah, me too."
He grinned. "And I definitely missed the activities that preceded this."
Penny giggled. "Again, me too." She looked up and kissed him. "I love you, Leonard. So much."
"I love you, too. Always have and always will."
They held each other and Penny smiled when ten minutes later Leonard started to snore softly. Though he was still holding her, he wasn't exerting any force, his arms were just slackly wrapped around her.
It reminded her of many nights during their relationship, even from the early days when she couldn't even admit to loving him. But the cuddling just before falling asleep had been a constant, and welcome part of the relationship she had with Leonard. It was something she hadn't experienced in any of her other relationships.
She smiled at the memory of earlier tonight, as she had helped him shower. As she had undressed the both of them, he had reacted to the sight of her, standing in front of him completely nude. As a result, the shower had been postponed for some time, as a celebration of being together again.
In the past she had been insecure about still being attractive to him, especially during her pregnancies, and again as she became older. At some point she had seriously contemplated spending her earnings from several acting jobs on a nip and tuck, and maybe even a breast enlargement.
Leonard had insisted she didn't need to change a thing, that she was still as desirable to him as the day they met. When she had confronted him about how he had enjoyed that her breasts were bigger during and just after being pregnant, he had countered that, yes, he loved her bigger breasts, but that he had no desire to sleep with a woman made out of plastic.
Every time she had brought up the subject, he had assured her he still found her the most attractive woman on the planet. And he really showed that every time they were together, his desire for her evident in the way he would look at her or during their passionate and frequent lovemaking.
After a while, she didn't even think about it anymore, having accepted the fact that, yes, she was getting older and changing, but Leonard really didn't mind. She was actually glad now that she hadn't changed anything. And she had no doubts about her desirability to Leonard.
Penny decided not to put on anything, instead walking in the direction of Leonard's home office. For the past two years, Leonard had taken to do most of his paper work at home, allowing him to work here for two or three days a week.
With all their children at school for most of the day, it allowed for some 'afternoon delight', without being interrupted. More importantly, Penny didn't need to work at keeping quiet, which somehow always took away a little from their experience.
She was disappointed when she noticed his office door was closed; it was their signal that Leonard really couldn't be disturbed, a signal that had only been used once during the last two years.
Penny turned and walked into her own office, directly across from his. She didn't really use it much for work these days, but it had a very comfortable sofa and allowed her to keep an eye on his door.
Penny smiled at the thought of her husband, working on the other side of the door just across the hallway. She wondered what he was wearing. Usually he was dressed in pants and a shirt, but there had been a few occasions when he had just wore his boxers and glasses. Her hand moved down between her legs, and she was slightly surprised to already find some wetness there.
She tried to mentally let Leonard know she was ready for him, needing him and sighed after a minute when the door didn't open. She began picturing Leonard again, rubbing herself as she did so. He had taken up on going to the gym frequently, which resulted in more defined muscles. Not as bulky as some of the men she had dated before him, but he had definitely bulked up.
With the muscles had come better stamina and confidence, both very welcome as far as Penny was concerned. She paused her actions as she heard a noise coming from the door. Looking over, she saw him standing there, a wide grin on his face.
Penny let her eyes travel over his bare chest and boxers, the latter showing clear signs of which part currently had dibs on the blood supply. "Hi," she said, and giggled at the breathless way it came out. She pouted. "Your door was closed."
He had walked over. "Yeah, sorry. That wasn't my intention." His eyes traveled over her body and rested where her hand was still lightly rubbing, his eyebrows raised. "You don't seem to need me, though."
Penny removed her hand and grinned. "Well, you didn't seem to be available. A girl's got to do what a girl's got to do." In a swift motion she removed his boxers, fixing the clothing discrepancy that had bothered her the moment she'd seen him. She patted the place on the sofa where her head had just been. "Why don't you sit down."
Penny's eyes remained on his hard member as Leonard moved to do as she had asked. Once he was seated beside her, she bent down to take him into her mouth, moving her head up and down slowly, sucking lightly. After a minute she released him from her mouth to gently kiss the tip of the head, before slowly moving her tongue along his length.
She then moved up his body, placing light kisses from his abdomen to his chest, and further up to his neck. By the time she got to his neck, his hands were roaming across her body, gently squeezing her breasts and after a little flick with his thumbs across her hard nipples, his hands went down her sides, making her shudder in delight.
His hands moved further down the outside of her thighs, before moving up and squeezing her butt. Her mouth crushed his in a searing kiss, full of passion and desire. She felt his erection as it was trapped between her groin and his, making the heat inside her rise to an almost unbearable height.
Without breaking the kiss, she moved just far enough she could feel the tip of him gliding along her swollen, wet folds. He bucked his hips, in an attempt to enter, but Penny moved along with him, denying him entrance for just a little longer.
They both knew her teasing would be short, her own need overriding her will to tease. Leonard was the teaser out of the two of them, often to immense frustration to Penny, but today Leonard didn't seem interested in the least in delaying anything.
Penny let herself drop down when she felt the tip right in front of her entrance, causing both of them to moan loudly. Penny had released his mouth, in favor or letting her head fall back in pleasure. "Oh, God, Leonard." She wanted to say more, tell him how he made her feel, how much she loved him, but she couldn't get the words out.
She yelped in surprise when Leonard flipped them over, but she recovered quickly and wrapped her legs around his waist. "Oh, fu, uhhn, fuck." She felt herself nearing her climax way too soon and she fought to postpone it a little longer.
"uhn, Leon- uhn- Leonard, I'm, ah, I'm almost, oh God yes. Almost there." She was panting heavily, her eyes closed in pleasure as much as to delay her climax, but she opened them. Leonard was hovering over her, a grin on his face.
"Go for it, honey."
She came right at that moment, unable to postpone it. When her brain began to work again, she could feel Leonard was still inside her, still hard. He hadn't come yet, but had paused while she rode her waves of ecstasy. "My turn," she said, still out of breath. She tried to get up, intent to ride him, but he held her in place.
"Just stay like this."
Penny nodded and felt him begin a slow pace. She closed her eyes when his pace increased, her own pleasure rising.
"Penny, please look at me."
She opened her eyes again, granting him his wish. The look of pure love, adoration, and desire almost took her breath away. She felt her climax nearing yet again, but she could tell that Leonard was also getting close. "Oh, God, Leonard."
"I'll be there with you."
True to his word, he came only a second after her, before collapsing on top of her. They were both panting but neither felt the need to say anything.
After a minute, Leonard moved off of her, helping her into a sitting position.
Penny smiled. "Well, that was fun." She kissed him and let out a sigh. "I really enjoy these afternoon delights."
Leonard chuckled. "Yeah, me too. But I don't think this one counts. It's not even eleven yet."
"Ooh, encore," Penny replied, before kissing him again.
"I love you, Penny."
Penny smiled. "And I love you."
