I apologize for the delay, I have written five chapters to make up for it!
Sadly, I don't own The Big Bang Theory
Sheldon stood in front of his whiteboard at work, his mind bombarded with thoughts of Penny, the one thing he couldn't figure out. He uncapped his marker and wrote below his formulas: 220, soft kitty, and spaghetti.
Sheldon then wrote alien and robot followed by a question mark. He then added 'feathers' and paused in brief thought as he capped his marker again.
"This is ridiculous."Sheldon breathed and put his marker down on his desk before he walked out of his office.
Penny smiled as she sat in the apartment with Amy and Bernadette. High school was the last time that she had such good friends as them and the more time that she spent with them she realized how much she missed it as Amy started talking.
"I believe the social convention is to ask questions about each other during sleepovers."
"Amy this isn't a sleep over, we're just having a girl's night." Bernadette explained as she took a sip of her wine.
"It's alright Amy, ask away."
"Alright, do you believe it was fate that you became Sheldon's roommate and got a job at the Cheesecake Factory only to become my 'bestie'?"
"Well it's more complicated than that so I'll say yes." Penny replied, looking at her. "So how did the two of you meet the guys?"
Bernadette spoke up first. "Well, when I started working at the Cheesecake Factory two years ago Howard came in with the guys and started hitting on me. I ignored him at first but we kept bumping into each other at the university and sparks began to fly."
"And what about you Amy?"
"I first met them at a fundraiser and Leonard suggested that I should date Sheldon since we were both similar. We tried it but there was no chemistry and we decided to remain friends." Amy explained as Penny frowned.
"I'm sorry it didn't work out."
"It's quite alright. I have a fiance named Prince Faisal so the idea was inappropriate from the start but who doesn't live on the wild side at least once in their life?" Amy beamed at the two of them.
"I'll drink to that." Bernadette said raising her glass as the door opened, revealing Sheldon.
"Great, a girl's night filled with alcohol induced frivolity and discussing People magazine's sexiest man alive, correct?" He droned, walking past them toward his room.
"Sheldon, why do you always harsh my buzz?" Amy moaned, earning a look from him.
"Just keep drinking, it'll return to you shortly as always. Goodnight and refrain from loud music, laughter and clinking of glasses." He added, walking toward his room.
"What is his deal?" Penny asked.
"I assume women but who knows?" Amy replied as Penny choked on her wine.
"I wasn't asking about that but you said you dated him? Is he gay?"
"Perhaps. I assume you're referring to coitus and sadly no, I could barely get Sheldon to hold my hand."
"You're kidding."
"Afraid not. Sheldon is the Homo Novus of our circle of friends." Bernadette explained further. "He thinks that he's better than the rest of the males on this planet when it comes to base desires."
"Too bad." Penny said, taking another sip.
"Don't tell me you're interested because as my 'bestie' you have a greater shot dating me than having sex with Sheldon."
Penny's eyes widened. "Gee, I hope not. More wine?"
Penny groaned as she felt something tapping on her forehead. She swatted it with her hand and felt that she had slapped someone. Slowly opening her eyes she saw that Sheldon's hand was hovering over her.
"Now that I have awoken you from your alcoholic escapades last night I must sit on my cushion and watch Dr. Who."
"I'm not in bed?" Penny asked confused.
"Obviously, when I came into the living room you were snoring on the couch with your head in my spot."
"But I walked back to my room." She defended, sitting up.
"Yet another hallucination. Penny, since you've moved in this is the second time I've seen you drinking. Is something causing you distress enough to warrant destruction of your brain cells?" Sheldon asked, staring at her.
"I'd rather not talk about it."
"I see. Then would you mind sitting up before Dr. Who starts in exactly 49 seconds?" He asked, checking his watch.
She sat up slowly just as he sat down in this spot with his bowl of cereal. If she was just a bit slower he would have sat on her head!
"Do you have any Tylenol left?" Penny asked, massaging her temples.
"You're in luck. There are two left in the bathroom on the second shelf on the right."
She nodded and sat up as she walked toward the bathroom as Sheldon turned on the television.
"Why would women subject themselves to binge drinking when they are fully aware of the side effects. It's baffling."
Knock. Knock. Knock. "Amy."
Knock. Knock. Knock. "Amy."
Knock. Knock. Knock. "Amy."
She turned to look at him as he stood in the doorway to her lab. "Are you aware that the door is open?"
"Obviously." He replied, shooting her a glare.
"Come in Sheldon."
"Thank you." His face softened slightly.
"So what brings you to my lab? Are you going to criticize my brain slices again?" Amy mocked, slicing another brain in front of her.
"Not today. Amy, I need you to run some tests of this sample." He spoke up, pulling out a vial of blood.
"Who's is that?" She asked, taking it from his hand. "I will not assist you in trying to clone Leonard Nimoy again."
"Nothing of the sort. I just need you to run standardized testing and simply give me the results of my blood." Sheldon said, placing his hands behind his back.
"That's it? Nothing illegal?" Amy asked suspiciously.
"Of course not."
"Alright. I'll run it as soon as I finish up my work."
"Bernadette, Bernadette, Bernadette!" Amy screamed as she ran down the hall, earning stares from professors and students.
She opened the door to the lab as Bernadette looked up from her microscope.
"Oh my God what happened Amy?" She asked concerned as Amy handed her a clipboard and pointed at it.
"Look at this."
Bernadette's eyes widened as she flipped through the pages. "Undetermined blood sample? Unknown origin? Is this a human's blood?"
Amy nodded with a look of fear in her eyes. "It's Sheldon's!"
"God maybe he really is a new species."
