A thought dawned on him. If he joined her in the shower, that would save them a few minutes so that he can get the physical contact he desperately craves. He was not about to wait another week. He quickly took off his clothes and placed them in the hamper. His heart started pounding in his chest as he walked into the bathroom, unsure how she would react to this. What if she got mad at him? In the end, his desires won over, and he pulled the shower curtain aside, throwing caution to the wind.

Amy nearly jumped when she heard the shower curtain being yanked open. It startled her so much she thought she would have a heart attack. "Sheldon!" She scolded, out of sheer surprise, hand pressed against her pounding heart. He frowned and looked away, taking this to mean she did not want him to join her. This was a bad idea. Perhaps he should apologize and let her shower in peace.

Once she surmised that he wasn't a serial killer, Amy realized that Sheldon was naked. "Did you… want to take a shower with me?" She asked, hoping that's what this whole ordeal was about. He nodded. "Is that ok?" She was surprised he even thought about this in the first place, and also pleasantly surprised. "Of course." She replied, and he stepped in, closing the curtain behind him. He was happy that she allowed it. Since showering together saved them about 7 minutes, they now had time for some intimate contact afterwards.

Amy turned and stepped back into the stream, giving him an eyeful of her posterior. Oh boy. He thought feeling his blood rush to a certain part of his body. He told himself to be a gentleman and look away, but he couldn't. Then she started lathering shampoo in her hair. Some of it dripped to her shoulders and down her back. He had the urge to reach out and rub the bubbles all over her skin. Why wait until they were done showering? He could get his physical contact now and save them even more time.

When Amy reached for the body wash, Sheldon decided to stop her. "May I?" He said, taking the bottle and pouring some into his palm. "OK." She answered happily. Soon, his hands were all over her, rubbing the product into her skin. It was such a sensual touch, as he relished the feel of her. Up her back, over her shoulders, down her arms. "I've been wanting to touch you all week." He confessed, then blushed as he realized that could be interpreted a different way. Amy's eyes widened. What a licentious thing to come out of Sheldon Cooper's mouth. It turned her on immediately. "I had no idea." She responded, unsure of what else to say. "You've been so busy." He explained, rubbing the lather over her stomach. He was finally able to get the physical contact he wanted, and she was awake to participate this time.

He stepped in closer, pressing his body to hers, not bothering to disguise his arousal one bit. She was in his arms now and he was going to get as much contact as he needed to—as long as she consented of course-to quench this incessant craving. He moved his hands up to her breasts and found that her nipples were hard which in turn made him even harder. Amy moaned. Having Sheldon touching her body at such an unexpected time was breathtaking. She nearly forgot that she was showering for a reason. Reaching up to stop his hands, she said. "Sheldon, we have to get ready for work soon." He let go of her then and stepped back. She was right. They both still had to finish their showers before he could calculate how much free time they really had. "Will you lather me up?" He asked. She obliged, and he watched as her hands roamed over his chest, down his abdomen, over his hips and thighs. It was a sight to behold. So simple, yet so sexy. He turned around and she soaped up his back and arms too. Then they took turns standing under the water to wash it all off. He was about to wrap his arms around her again when her phone started ringing in their room. They both sighed.

"Let it ring." He said, not wanting to be disturbed. They still had 6 minutes of shower time to enjoy. She hesitated for a second, but when he gripped her waist and pulled her in for a kiss, she didn't object. No, she couldn't object. She wrapped her arms around his neck and sighed into his lips. Sheldon was getting very frustrated. It's not that he wasn't enjoying this. It was just that… He couldn't get enough. He deepened the kiss by slipping his tongue in her mouth. She kissed him back with equal fervor. He groaned. Still not enough. He grabbed handfuls of her rear and roughly yanked her closer. Amy's head was spinning, Sheldon was kissing her with such passion it was unreal. She tightened her arms around his neck. Still not enough. He pushed her against a wall and attacked her throat. Licking, kissing, nibbling, sucking, biting. She moaned loudly, shocked at his behavior, but incredibly aroused by it too. Still not enough. He kissed down her throat, grabbing her thighs and lifting her up so he didn't have to bend down. She wrapped her legs around his waist. His erection placed perfectly between her thighs, pressing against her aching flesh. Still not enough. He continued down her clavicle and ground himself against her with a growl. "Oh!" Amy gasped, finding it hard to breath. He was pushed against her so tightly. Still not enough. He crushed his lips into hers once more, rocking his hips back and forth, a need building up in his core, the friction making her incredibly hot and wet. Still not enough. He needed to be inside her. He needed to fill her up and have her tight walls wrapped around him so deliciously. He moved his hips away to position himself at her warm opening. He was ready to devour her.

RING! RING! They both snapped out of their lust-filled haze. "Oh God," Amy said as Sheldon slowly placed her back down. She wobbled a little and he gripped her arm to steady her. She was going to be late. She grabbed the towel and hurried out the bathroom to answer her phone. He signed heavily, feeling even more frustrated than ever before. What had gotten over him? He's never acted like that before. Like… like… a wild animal. Like he had no control over himself and his desires. Perhaps Leonard was right? He hurried out of the shower and dressed himself, while watching Amy tug her own clothes on. Who would have thought that seeing someone get dressed could be so arousing? Most people would only associate that word with taking clothes off. Not him. Watching his woman hide her every curve under layer upon layer of fabric made him lustful at the fact that no one else can see her body the way he has. No one else would touch her, kiss her, run his tongue all over her... mmm. All over her silky flesh.

"Sheldon!" he snapped out of his musings. "We have to go!" She said, already halfway out the door. He shook his head at the thoughts swirling in his mind, as he powerwalked out of the apartment. He was losing it for certain.
