Fixed my mistakes in other chapters. Thanks for your reveiws. I dont own TBBT and enjoy Chapter 6. The adoption agency is fictional as for the agent.
Chapter 6:
That following Friday, Penny took the day off to take Leonard for his procedure. They were both grateful that Bernadette and Howard took Christian and their dog for that day, into next. That way Penny could focus all her attention on Leonard.
Penny was checking her phone, as Leonard sat there as his knee bounced quickly. She looked over and slid her hand on his knee with a concerned look. "Leonard, Honey, calm down you will be fine. And if you don't you know you will get a nose bleed. You have never been this nervous over a surgery before, what has changed?"
Leonard gave her a nervous smile, "I guess it is the fact Howard told me it's painful afterwards. And you know pain and I do not mix very well."
Penny patted his knee amd gave him a seductive smile, "Sweetie, I am sure it will be painful and I am sorry for that because they are sensitive. But remember the pain you felt after your accident, probably wont be as bad. And then remember you are doing this for me because I went through giving birth to our son...Plus you refuse for me to intake anymore pain."
Leonard lowered his head and looked sad at his wife, "I know I did, I'm doing this for us. I can not go through you loosing another miscarriage or you feeling jealousy another woman caring our child. Honestly I can only think if either one of those things happened I would loose you and our son again. Those two weeks after our last miscarriage tore me apart because I was not there to comfort you." Then took her hand and linked their fingers together. "You know I do not like it when we argue or even when we were insecure with each other. You and Christian are to much too loose for. No more heartache for us."
Penny laid her head on his shoulder, "Oh Leonard! You are right, no more heartache for us." Penny made sure they stayed like this until a nurse came and took Leonard back.
Sometime later Penny was looking at an article about the royal family when her phone rang. Penny did not recognize the number but answered it anyways. "Hello?"
"Yes, is there a Doctor or Mrs. Hofstadter available?" Some woman asked.
"This is Penny Hofstadter speaking. May I ask who I am speaking to?"
The woman answered, "Yes my name is Jenifer Cole, I am an agent here at Heartland Adoption Agency. I recieved an email about you and your husband looking into adoption. From what I read in the email, I would love to meet with the both of you. Is that a possibility?"
Penny could not beleive in less in a week an agency was calling her to set up a meeting. "Oh my God, Yes!" She felt emotionally excited.
The woman seemed very joyful."Great, I have an opening next Friday at three in the afternoon. How does that sound?"
Penny told Jenifer that she and Leonard would make their schedules work for this meeting. Penny knew it was nothing permanent but it was one of many steps to get were they wanted to be.
Not much longer after Leonard made his way out in a wheel chair and saw his wife. "Hey there's my pretty lady..."
Penny knew right there he was on pain medication. She walked over and put her hand on his shoulder and looked down at him with a serious look, "Look loverboy calm down. You got to recover before any dirty thoughts enter that big brain of yours."
Leonard just looked up with sad etes with his lip sticking out, "Okay dokey my speical lady."
Penny looked at the nurse who seemed tonbe amused my Leoanrd's state but did not say anything just kept it professional. "Here is a prescription for Tylenol with codeine. No straining activites for the next forty-eight hours at least. Also keep ice pack on to keep swelling down but if any discomfort after the forty-eight hours give us a call and the doctor will see him."
Penny signed him out and took the papers in her hands from the nurse. She then helped Leonard up and walked him to her car. "Come on and lean against me so you can walk."
Leonard smiled as he put an arm around his wife's shoulder, "Do I get a treat for being a good boy?"
Penny bit her lip from laughing, "We will see, depends how you act staying in the car while I go get your pain meds and ice packs."
