Chapter 27

Leonard stood next to Penny as she spoke as she called important people. Which he knew all about from the University, but he just hoped Penny did not had to do what he did a year ago as he shamelessly slept with Mrs. Latham to get the part she wanted. Leonard would put his foot down if any of these important men tried. He also figured Penny would say no as Kurt would have made her. And he was sure a few other ex boyfriends would make Penny do also.

"Hey what is going on in that big brain of yours?" Penny asked tilting her head as she kissed his cheek and wrapped her arms around his waist as she noticed Leonard seemed in a different world.

"I understand you need to impress these directors and producers but not feel like I am going to force you to something you are uncomfortable with. I am not that guy..." Leonard look on his face was full of concern as he hoped Penny would know. Then he just smiled with a big grin. "Tonight I am your arm candy!"

Penny giggled as she sucked in her bottom lip. "Damn straight you are! I will make sure every woman in this room is jealous I have a smart yet sexy scientist on my arm." Then leaned into his ear and whispered. "That's right Hofstadter you are all mine tonight, even in my bed tonight over and over again."

"Are you sure with me?" He asked suddenly regretting what he said as he saw Penny's face. Leonard felt sick to his stomach as his girlfriend frowned and her cheeks became red.

"Of course you!" Penny said in a quiet yell and stepped back from Leonard as she crossed her arms. "Who in the hell else could I mean?" She raised her eyebrow and waited for an answer. Which she could tell Leonard was struggling as he huffed and scratched his head.

"Well um... Okay look that came out wrong..." Leonard protested as he put his arms up and hands blocking him away from his girlfriend.

"How does that come out wrong? You really think I want to leave with someone else? Did we just not discuss last night? Leonard do you trust me or not? I am going to tell you right now Hofstadter, I might have commitment issues but does not mean I have cheated on you or even thought leaving you. I have been faithful to you from day one. Yes day one, even though we just met. You have ruined other men for me. So believe me when I say I love you and I want to be with you. I would never forgive myself if I did something stupid to ruin this relationship, because there has been quite a few times I thought I had but you stood by me. So how can you think I want someone else? You know what I am not in the mood anymore...Take me home." Penny suggested feeling quite upset at her boyfriend. It almost felt like the evening before but tonight she had enough. She began to say her goodbyes as she excused herself not feeling good.

Leonard looked down at the floor and nodded his head as he followed Penny. He just could not stop overthinking over how he felt out of place and Penny could be with any of these men.He had to try his hardest just to accept Penny wanted him and she was honest. Everytime his mother came to town he had to resort back to this young boy who could not accept he was good enough for her. And now it was toward Penny. Leonard just sighed as ge and Penny were finally outside and he opened the car door. They both stayed quite as Leonard was mad at himself as he also knew Penny was upset with him. He cleared his throat and noticed Penny looked at him still looking pissed. "Okay look you know it's me who can not accept the facts of our relationship" Leonard said as he touched his chest. "And I'm sorry for that..." Giving Penny a sensure look.

"What are you saying?" Penny finally asked suddenly feeling nervous and that maybe she went to far.

"I do trust you that you do not really want any other guy. Since my mother came for a visit I feel I become this needy little boy and I hate it. These feelings is even effecting our relationship...Sheldon might be my best friend but is not making the situation better. He just becoming annoying and more controlling. To make this short I am going to do something I should have done long ago..." Leonard told Penny as he paid attention to the road.

"What? Are you breaking up with me? Asking me to move in with you again? Please don't ask me to marry you again, because I am not ready for marriage..." Penny began to panick.

Leonard chuckled and shook his head. "Look who is the one over thinking. So no no and no... Wait ask you to marry you again?" He was now the one confused as he quickly frowned at his girlfriend.

"Oh right you were higher than a kite when you asked so it doesn't count." Penny replied hoping Leonard would move on.

"Wait why does it not count? What do you mean I was high as a kite?" Leonard asked still frowning. He saw how annoyed Penny was becoming so he asked another question. "Did you tell me no or are we secretly engaged and just have not told me yet?"

"For your information it was the night you shot your foot. You also told me we would make smart and beautiful babies. So of course we are not engaged and you can wipe off that smug smile off your face you ass!" Penny said frowning back at Leonard and noticed Leonard was now embarrassed. She just smiled as two can play this game and she knew she would be the won winning as she could play Leonard like a violin.
