They both stared at each other in shock not believing what just happened. "You love me," they said in unison. They both laughed at this trend but uncomfortably. Leonard nodded and looked away. Penny knew that he cared for her well being and will do anything for her but this, this was big they had been through a lot together; she had tried to fight her feelings, but in the end, love overcomes everything. She didn't realize she said it until she heard her own voice. "You love me too," he asked. Leonard had wanted to tell Penny how he felt for a long time but thought it was too early in the relationship and didn't want to rush things and push Penny away. He had no idea she felt the same way. He looked at her; she was staring right back at him. They could sense each other's emotions and the feeling that they have been brought together for some deeper purpose.

"Leonard."

"Penny" they both spoke at the same time, he moved close to her on the couch.

"Sorry, you first."

"No, you go ahead." He urged her.

"Okay." she played with her fingers she was nervous and didn't know where to start. She took Leonard hands in hers to calm her nerves. "We are soulmates; we belong together I see it now."

"Penny you don't have to…"

"Please, Leonard let me finish." He nodded for her to continue. Penny took a deep breath.

"Before I met you my life was sad and pathetic, but you have changed that and awakened the flames in me. I know we met through unusual circumstance which was totally unplanned and unexpected. I believe this wasn't a chance meeting, but we were meant to be together." The close encounter in the elevator and the chances of accidentally dialling your number, I feel these were signs that something out there is rooting for us and no matter what. We are meant to be." There was tenderness in her words, voice and gesture. He could see she was close to tears, Leonard removed one of his hand from her's and rubbed her shoulder to assure her.

"Penny my search for happiness ended when I met you, it is impossible to explain why or how these feeling came about but once I met you, I felt a sense of completion that goes beyond words. I too believe we are soulmates, and yes the circumstances of our meetings were strange but just like you I have come to embrace it. I love you Penny with all my heart, and I'm not afraid to say it anymore." Penny felt a wave of passion and unconditional love for this man like no other. She melted into his embrace and kissed him like she never had before, wanting to show him how much he meant to her. Her mouth was hard on his, he put both arms around her and pulled her against him. Her lips softened. They could feel the rapid beat of their hearts; she wound her hands into his hair, as she always did, His hair curled around her fingers. This intimate connection was broken when she pulled back and fixed her gaze on his eyes. She wanted this memory to last forever.

"I love you too Leonard. I never in my wildest dreams thought I could love someone so much. You are my soulmate Leonard." his heart melted at her words, bringing tears to his eyes. He smiled at her and said.

"You are my soulmate too Penny and always will be." He leaned in to kiss her again she closed her eyes chills running through her as her body consumed into the kiss.

Leonard and Penny were invited to a dinner party at Howards; his mother was away. Sheldon and Amy were already there when they arrived, Raj and a date turned up ten minutes later. They all mingled while the host Howard and Bernadette prepared dinner.

Amy watch as Leonard and Penny were talking at the far end of the room she couldn't hear what they were saying, but she was amazed by them, the way they looked at each other and the little touches and kisses between them. It was like no one else was in the room except them. As a microbiologist, she wanted to study these two and see what makes them tick. She had heard so much about their love story from the gang and seeing them showing and expressing their love for all to see brought a tear to her eye.

"So how long have Leonard and Penny being together. Amy asked Raj.

"Oh, I don't know probably about eight months. Why?"

"They look so in love." Amy beamed.

"It will not last, as soon as the passion burns out Penny will leave him and find someone else to satisfy her."

"Sheldon why would you say that." look at them They look so happy." Amy replied.

After dinner and chit-chatting for a while, the guys went off to play video games in Howard's room while the girl cleaned up, minus Raj's date who went with the guys, the subject turned to relationships as they drank wine. The main topic was sex and how they could improve it. Amy sat quietly and listened as Penny and Bernadette went on about how great their other half were in bed., she couldn't really join in because Sheldon wasn't interested in sex even though they have been together for over a year. They made out a few time, but that was it. Bernadette and Penny gave her some tips on how to seduce him, but Amy dismissed them as she knew it would never work. The topic went back to how they could put some more spice in their love lives, after discussing different option and scenarios Penny decided they should dress in sexy outfits as their men love costumes especially when they are wearing them.

"We all get something sexy to wear, like leather boots and gloves," Penny said.

"And surprise our men when they come home from work in these outfits and see what happens.". Bernadette said excitedly. Penny was up for it.

"Isn't that going a bit too far?". Amy asked. Penny looked at Amy and said. "Do you want Sheldon to desire you." Amy thought about it.

"Okay, I am in." Amy saw this as an experiment and love that she was part of it. She wanted to study Sheldon's reaction when he sees her all dressed up. They decided that they would meet in a week's time to discuss the outcome and share notes.

A week later they met at Bernadette apartment; the guys were at the comic book shop. They talked about their week and laughed at Amy reactions and excitement and the stuff she bought when they went to the dirty store to get their outfits.

"So Penny how did it go with you and Leonard?" Bernadette asked.

"My god, it was so amazing. When Leonard came home and saw me sitting in the living room in all black with my boots, gloves, whip and mask, wearing no underwear; he literally dropped his pants, and he ravished every part of my body as we made love like mad and gave me the thrill of a lifetime."

"Wow, you are such a slut Penny, sounds like you had a very good time."

"Oh I did, and I'm only a slut for Leonard. and we are doing it again tonight, and I'm allowed to use the whip this time. Penny grinned

"So Bernadette so how did Howard react? Did he ravish you like Leonard did Penny?" Amy asked.

"He sure did. I wore the open lace bodysuit and positioned myself on the door of my Apartment, and when Howard arrived and saw me, he jumped me like a headless horseman. The best sex and best time ever".

"Bernadette you dirty little stop out." Penny laughed.

"Hey, he is my man, and I like his reaction whenever I dress up in any kind of costume for him. It turns him into any animal. It was Amy turn, and she went silence after listening to the antics of the other couples. "So Amy what happened with you and Sheldon? Did the robot man finally oil his rod? Penny grinned. After a long pause, she finally spoke.

"I went to his apartment and let myself in. I changed into the black sexy hollow spider lace outfit. And there I was, on the couch, waiting for Sheldon. When he finally came home, he looked at me and went to the fridge, got himself a bottle of water, sat on his spot on the couch, he gave me another look and said. What's for dinner?"
