„So you gave him a step-by-step instruction?" Howard rammed his fork into a piece of green salad before putting it into his mouth, slowly chewing, and staring back at Leonard.
He just shrugged and concentrated on his food as well. It was the only possible way to satisfy Sheldon. He wasn't good with general information when he planned to do something. He needed to know what was going to happen, otherwise he was uncomfortable.
And by now Leonard really wanted Sheldon to finally have sex. Even if it was just for the sake of seeing Penny happy.
„You know how heavy-handed Sheldon is with women in general, right?"
Leonard looked up and grinned. That coming from Howard was something that was actually hilarious.
„I mean" Howard imbibed another mouthful. „Not that Amy seems very skilled considering sexual activities but… even she might realize that Sheldon is gonna be slightly awkward."
„Hello guys" The Indian accent revealed who sat down without having to look up. „Any news?"
„Leonard gave Sheldon a step-by-step instruction for sex!" Howard blurted out in a laughter.
„Shut your ass!" Raj stared at Leonard.
He shrugged again. He didn't have any choice.
„I bet Amy has to tick a list" Howard giggled and Raj attuned.
„Stop being so mean, guys" Leonard sighed and finally looked up from his plate. „He's really trying hard for Amy. Wouldn't Bernadette appreciate it, too, if you made such a big sacrifice for her?"
„The only and biggest sacrifice I made was getting married" Howard put on a cool grin which immediately fell off, when a convoluted newspaper hit the back of his head.
Leonard and Raj looked up and found Bernadette standing there, glancing at her husband angrily.
„Talk. NOW!" Her squeaky voice made their eardrums ring.
„I'll be right back" Howard smiled apologetically and followed his wife, who rushed over the corridor.
When he was out of sight, Raj turned back. „So you think Sheldon's really gonna try it?"
„Well, he said he would invite Amy over again and… yes."
„Oh my. I really hope he doesn't screw up."
„Yeah. So do I."
Amy put her phone away and hated herself in the same time. She had told Sheldon she didn't have time to come over when he had called her and now she was struggling with the fact that she wanted to call him back and tell him her plans got cancelled and she could come.
After what had – or had not – happened yesterday, Penny told her that a clever woman would let a man wait a little though. And Amy thought that this basically was a good idea. Because even if they didn't engage in coitus, maybe if she cold-shouldered him a little, he would realize how badly her needs already were.
She helped herself to some mango juice from the fridge, before she walked over to the sofa and let herself fall down. It wasn't easy being Sheldon Lee Cooper's girlfriend. Actually it wasn't easy to be the girlfriend of any guy who wasn't interested in sex.
When she had first met Sheldon, she had told him that things like coitus or touching were not even worth talking about and that seemed to have impressed him. Little did she know she would fall in love so badly, that someday all those primal needs would crawl up inside of her and slowly take over.
Knock knock knock.
„Amy"
Knock knock knock.
„Amy"
Knock knock knock.
„Amy"
She turned around, her eyes widened. Then she jumped off the sofa and rushed to the door, before she cleared her throat and adjusted her skirt. She opened the door.
„Hello Amy" Sheldon smiled and handed Amy a single red rose. „I thought if you can't come to my house, then I could come to yours."
He thought about what Leonard had told him, bent forwards and placed a small tender kiss onto Amy's lips.
She felt like fainting. Her knees shuddered and the palms of her hands got sweaty. Still she managed to sound pretty calm. „Fine. Come in."
Sheldon closed the door behind himself and looked around. Then he walked over to the sofa and let himself fall on the very right spot. He looked around unobtrusively. No candles in sight. Damn. One article he could not fulfill.
Amy sat down on the very left spot and looked at Sheldon. „So… what brings you here?"
„I simply wanted to spend time with my girlfriend. Is that forbidden?"
„No, of course not"
„Well then, why don't you move a little closer, Amy Farrah Fowler?" He smiled at her.
She couldn't believe it. Was this a dream?
She realized it was not, when Sheldon put his arm around her. She was so caught in 7th heaven, that she didn't notice how her boyfriend raised an eyebrow and started thinking.
The list. Next step: more body contact. Right.
Without even thinking about the consequences, Sheldon moved the hand of the arm that was lying on Amy's shoulders, to her breast and touched it straightforwardly.
„Sheldon!" Amy blurted out and moved away from him. „What's wrong with you?"
She would have enjoyed the touch… if this wouldn't have been so confusing. It was like someone completely different sat on that sofa.
„That's the right way to start coitus"
„What?"
„With touching, kissing if necessary… and it's only necessary if the touches aren't enough for raising the woman's excitement level… and then well. Next articles were undressing, laying down, putting on a…"
„Wait. What articles?" Amy started to get a clue of what was happening here.
„Leonard made me a list" Sheldon replied easily.
Amy tried to catch her breath, then she just pointed at the door silently.
Sheldon looked at her confused. Only as she screamed „Leave!" he jumped up and walked out the apartment fast. „But… Amy, I thought you…"
„I wanted to make love with you only because you want it, not because you want to finish a list article by article!" Amy smashed the door and Sheldon heard her sobbing.
He cringed like someone had stung him with a needle… fast and hard. He was absolutely lost, about this whole situation, about what had just happened and about what she had said. But if he knew one thing, it was that he had messed up. And that she was crying. And that he absolutely did not want her to cry. „I deeply apologize!"
No answer.
Knock knock knock.
„Amy?"
Knock knock knock.
„Amy…?"
Knock knock knock.
Still no answer.
„Amy" Sheldon leaned his forehead against the closed door.
„…and then I simply named the articles" Sheldon was completely lost. His worldview got crashed like a single ant by a big shoe, with the reaction Amy gave him.
„You mentioned the list? Ohhhh, Sheldon!" Leonard tossed his head back and put his hands on his face.
„Well, sorry" Sheldon replied in a high pitched voice. „I thought I should possibly let her know, so she could arrange with the situation!"
„Sex is not something you do by a list!"
„But you made me one"
„Yes, for you. You are someone that would need a list for sex. You are the only one that needs a list for sex!" Leonard couldn't believe Sheldon had messed up so badly. No matter how much of a genius he was besides this girlfriend thing; with Amy he did anything that possibly could go wrong, wrong.
„She cried"
Leonard looked at Sheldon and recognized the deeply sad look on his face. It seemed to really get to him that he had hurt her so bad. Leonard sighed and sat down next to him, before he put a hand on his shoulder to show him he was there. Even if Sheldon was clumsy when it came to feelings; if you knew him, it wasn't hard to tell that he was head over heels for Amy.
„Listen, maybe you should just visit her again and explain that you didn't mean it like that"
„But what am I supposed to say?"
„Sheldon…"
„Leonard, I might be the greatest theoretical physicist of all time but… I am not very experienced when it comes to women and their feelings" Sheldon looked down at his hands, which were placed on his lap. It was hard for him to admit things like that but maybe that would show Leonard how badly he needed his help with this.
„Alright. Penny is over at Amy's house. I will text her and tell her to prepare Amy for your visit. Then you'll just go there and apologize to her and tell her you didn't mean it like that. And maybe you should tell her what you feel."
„What do you mean by ‚what I feel'?" Sheldon looked up.
Leonard just raised his eyebrows and walked to the kitchen counter to get his phone. Sheldon sighed.
Penny bit her lip when she read the text message. Then she let her phone slip back into her pocket.
„Who was it?"
„Oh, just Leonard"
„Another boyfriend" Amy spit the word out, like it was a fly that had gotten caught between her teeth.
Penny swallowed and proceeded to brush Amy's hair. As she had heard the news from Leonard, she had rushed over to her bestie, to give her a girly day. Manicure, pedicure, cucumber face masque, make-up and some hair curling.
„Oh Sweety, come on. I'm sure Sheldon didn't have any bad intentions!"
„Pah!" Amy's lips were surrounded by a sarcastic smile.
„Come on, he just didn't want to make a mistake"
„So you're siding with him?" Amy pulled her eyebrows down.
„No, I'm just trying to… uhm… see it from his perspective a little"
„Oh… well"
Penny blew a strand of hair out of her face. Sheldon was apparently not the best topic right now. Most of all not, when he would be there in about ten minutes.
Amy grabbed her glass of champagne and took a sip.
„How is the monkey study going?" Penny asked casually, while making the fourth curl in Amy's long brown hair.
„Pretty well. They can live with one cigarette per day now. Though they still sometimes try to throw their excrements around…"
Penny was happy Amy couldn't see the disgusted expression on her face. „Mhmm…"
„Ricky is pretty agressive though"
„Well, I can imagine. Wasn't he the one who smoked the most?"
„Oh yeah" A deepish laughter came out of Amy's mouth. „His ammount of smoking was insane!"
Knock knock knock.
„Oh perfect timing!" Penny chirped while ripping the curling iron plug out of the outlet.
„Amy"
„We're done!" Penny slowly packed everything into the bag she brought with her.
„Penny…" Amy's dark look changed from her best friend to the door.
Knock knock knock.
„Do you happen to know anything about that?" Amy furiously pointed at the door.
„Amy"
Penny just shrugged and let a look of total lack of knowledge run across her face.
Knock knock knock.
She quickly grabbed her bag, kissed Amy on the cheek and hurried to the door. „I gotta go. Love you, bestie!"
„Amy"
Penny opened the door. Sheldon was in front of it. Penny gave him a look that said ‚good luck' and walked past him. He walked in and closed the door.
Amy was still sitting on her chair, staring angrily at her boyfriend.
„Hello Amy…"
„What do you want here?" She replied grumpily.
„Amy" He let his shoulders fall and walked over to her. „I really didn't mean to make you feel bad or… deceive or… defile you"
Her look softened hardly noticeable. Sheldon rested his eyes on her. She looked pretty. There was some make-up on her face. She had amazing green eyes. And he had never realized that her hair was that long and shiny.
„Sheldon" She sighed and examined his face. „Why do you have to do stuff like that?"
„Well, because" He hum'd and haw'd a little.
„Because what?"
„Because I was insecure. And I still am. I have never felt like that before in the presence of another person."
„Felt like what?"
Sheldon bit his lip because he felt Amy getting impatient again. „Well…"
„What, Sheldon?"
„I have never felt something close to that before with someone else than my Meemaw but… I think I might love you, Amy Farrah Fowler."
His eyes widened as he saw tears flashing in her eyes again. „I am sorry, I didn't mean to…!"
Amy got up and wrapped her arms around Sheldon's middle.
He was quite surprised by that action but then recalled that some people also cried sometimes when they were happy – even if that was the most incomprehensible reaction to happiness he could possibly think of.
He also put his arms around her and closed his eyes for a moment just to realize her hair smelt like roses. Then he suddenly sensed that he could also feel it under his fingertips. It was soft and smooth and felt like silk.
Before he even got the chance to open his eyes, he felt something soft and warm on his lips. He didn't back away, he just opened his eyes for a second. Amy was so close to him that she appeared blurry.
She was kissing him.
With every further second this kiss lasted, Sheldon's thoughts got erased. It felt like his brain got lighter and lighter and nothing bothered him anymore. There was nothing but complete emptiness around him. But a good kind of emptiness. Not the one when he was nervous in a speech and it seemed like he had forgotten everything.
His knowledge was there… but it had yielded for feelings. And it seemed like they were taking over.
Only led by his intentions, Sheldon took Amy's face in his hands and opened his lips just to let his tongue slide along hers.
He heard his deeper thoughts scream in the background. Possibly something about the list. But he ignored them so passionately, that he didn't even have time to think about it.
As they broke apart Amy looked into Sheldon's eyes for a second. She was out of breathe. He stared right back and as he realized her eyes had gotten a way deeper tone of green and her lips were slightly swollen, he smiled.
He took her hands and lead her to the bedroom, while incriminating her into another breathtaking kiss.
When they finally arrived in the bedroom, Sheldon closed the door with his foot and pushed Amy towards the bed. Just a tad before being in danger of falling down onto the red sheets, he stopped and his hands wandered away from hers, onto her stomach and up. This time she didn't break away from him. He even thought he had heard a little moan.
Leaning forehead to forehead, Sheldon's long fingers opened the buttons of her blouse, till the very last one. Then he wiped it back over her shoulders and it hit the floor with a quiet sound.
Sheldon had always thought that Amy was an attractive woman – otherwise she wouldn't have been his girlfriend – but that black bra, that he had just exposed, was not only attractive. It was tempting.
Suddenly everything was easy, as if he had never done anything else.
His lips found the way to Amy's neck. The smell of her hair almost made him go insane. The lower part of his body pressed against her, giving her a clear sign, that he was ready.
Amy gasped as she felt the evidence of him finding her attractive and desirable.
His belt jingled, as Amy opened it.
Sheldon was still occupied with her neck, but his fingers wandered across her back and slightly scratched it here and there.
Then he guided them down and pulled the zipper of her skirt down. It sank to the floor immediately, followed by his pants.
Amy moved her hands under Sheldon's shirt and raised it and he let go of her neck involuntarily, as she pulled the shirt over his head and tossed it to the floor.
Their eyes met and Sheldon smiled. He took off Amy's glasses and carefully put them on a chair nearby.
Amy and him were both breathing heavily, as his hands wandered onto her back again and started playing around with the hook of her bra. This time he was handier. He opened it and Amy let the straps slide down her arms. Then the bra landed on the floor.
Sheldon swallowed as his look slided down from her face right to the spot, he had just set free.
Amy felt her chance and pulled down his boxers, which also fell down to the pile of all the other clothes.
Sheldon took a deep breath and then gently placed Amy on the bed, laying down on her. Then he kissed his way down till he was stopped by her panties. He raised again and pulled it down with one simple but fast movement.
Amy's toes squirmed. She was nervous. Even if he had already seen her like that before. This was a whole new situation.
Sheldon came back up to her and put his lips back onto hers. This time she moaned louder and clearer when his tongue got in a fight with hers.
Her hand wandered down his back, deeper, along his side and between her and him…
Sheldon broke away from her, trembled and moaned. A few moments later he opened his eyes and looked at her.
„Amy… I'm so sorry"
She just smiled. She was so proud and happy about the effect she had on Sheldon, that she wasn't even angry about not having had real sex with him.
„It's okay" She raised her head to give him a short kiss on the lips.
„No… I mean… you…"
„It's okay, Sheldon, really" She laid her head back and looked up at him with a smile.
Sheldon thought for a moment, then he slid back down. Amy looked at him quizzically.
„I remember I read something about a Grafenberg spot. And it shouldn't be hard to locate!"
Amy opened her mouth to reply something but the only thing that came out was a loud moan, after Sheldon already actively started trying to find that spot.
He looked up and realized how much he actually liked what he was doing. And he wondered why he hadn't tried that earlier.
He proceeded a few more minutes, then Amy's whole body shuddered and relaxed. Sheldon smiled.
„Do you think we should tell anyone about it?" Amy bit her lower lip and looked over at Sheldon.
He was lying on the pillow, arms under his head. „Maybe not for now…"
„You know it's going to be hard to not tell Penny though" The young woman sighed and stared back at the ceiling.
„Would she believe you though if you said you engaged in coitus with me?"
„Probably not"
They both grinned.
After a while Sheldon arose. „So, Amy Farrah Fowler. Are you up for some French toast?"
„Always"
Sheldon stretched his hand towards here and Amy smiled at him before she took it and went out of the bedroom with him.
The End.
I really hope you enjoyed it.
I am already working on my next fanfic. I really cherish it when you give me feedback in the comments :) it keeps me writing.
Sorry if there are many mistakes. English is not my native language and Big Bang Theory is extremely hard to write in a foreign language.
Stay tuned for the next Shamy fanfic :)
Good night, guys.
