This chapter would be a good one with Penny realizing she needed to wake up. Hope you enjoy as I do not own these characters.

Chapter 29

Penny woke up finally feeling somewhat normal. She was glad she neither had to work at The Cheese Cake Factory or at the studio. Penny sat up seeing a bottle of water and some saltin crackers on her side of the bed in Leonard's room. She hardley remembered what happened early that morning. All she knew there was at least two trips to the bathroom and Leonard holding her hair and they ended up talking about their relationship. Yet he was not mad at her one bit about her being mad at him for wanting to move or her being waisted. Penny did remember Sheldon being upset because she ruined his bathroom routine and was going to give her a strike but Leonard took blame and had Sheldon give them both a warning with the moving finger.

Penny rolled her eyes as she got her robe on thinking how much Sheldon annoyed her with all the crazy stuff he does yet also she was beginning to think of him as an older brother that you treat as a younger brother. She chuckled how he was softening up to her also as she took a few sips of her water and ate a few crackers. As Penny was doing so she picked up her phone and just happened to see the time was twenty minutes after twelve in the afternoon and a message from Leonard. She smiled wondering what he sent her and opened her IPhone. She then read his text. "Hey Babe hope you are feeling better? Would send a longer text but I am about to set up an experiment and my phone needs to be shut off. Love you and will see you around six." Penny smiled as her and Leonard seems good but wish she could remember what they talked about. All she knew he was so good to her and wished she could do better to show him how much she appreciated him more than just having sex with him.

Penny put her phone down as she got up as her heart was heavy. She knew Leonard was extremely sweet and romantic and wished she was the same way. As she made her way out to the kitchen after using the restroom and began to look for something to eat and make a cup of tea, Penny knew she was far from the romantic type. But she did try with Leonard, he deserved that much, but she also knew after being with three abusive men the romance was all sucked out of her.

As Penny thought of this it clicked how she would surprise Leonard and maybe it would be a little romantic. She finished her tea and grabbed her keys and went back over to her apartment. Well of course washing her cup first because she knew Sheldon's reaction if she did not do so and sighed with relief she was finally going to do this. Penny entered her apartment and took her dad's advice from a few years ago, some from Leonard, and looked up a number and called it. Her appointment was scheduled and then began to pack as she really hoped Leonard would let her.

Later that evening Penny opened her door hearing Leonard and Sheldon have a heated discussion between what she guessed was a new comic book or movie. Or could have been a video game or t.v show, she was not sure. "Hey guys!" She expressed as Penny saw neither one saw her right away.

Leonard and Sheldon turned their heads and both said hello. Sheldon proceeded to head in apartment 4A as Leonard stayed in the hallway as Penny asked if they could talk. "Yeah what's up?" He asked as he approached her with a small kiss on the lips and his hands laying softly on Penny's hips.

"I want to move in with you!" Is all Penny said as her hands laid on Leonard's shoulders. She sighed with relief and gave her boyfriend a smile.

Leonard frowned and backed up a few inches as he rubbed his forehead and one hand on his hip. "What? Huh? Just earlier this morning you were so mad at me for moving away that you got drunk. Not only that I am exhausted from staying up with you every time you had to rush to the bathroom... So please tell me why all of a sudden you are changing your mind after a few months of refusing the idea we live together?" He said and asked as he just angerly stared at his girlfriend.

Penny crossed her arms as she now was angry at Leonard. "You were the one who told me you left it up to me when I decided to move in with you. Remember? Also Leonard after last night and this morning was a wake up call for me. Doesn't matter what even when I am mad at you, you still do these little romantic gestures. And for once I wanted to do something for you! Once you move out you will not be so more confclose...I want to be close to you... Of all people Leonard it's you I want to be with. And you know what? After years and months of blaming myself I was my fault I was in these bad relationships and not giving you barley a chance I decided to go talk to someone who is a professional, and no not your mother. I need this for myself so I can keep moving forward with you..." She told him out of frustration and felt tears form. Penny took a deep breath trying to fight from crying because she hated doing so in front of Leonard. She rather be more confide then vulnerable with her boyfriend.

"Oh okay..." Leonard said out of surprise. He swallowed hard and stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Penny and held her in a hug. "If you are really sure we sign papers in the morning. But for right now how about we go back into your apartment and just relax and we will watch any movie you want and will order dinner?"

"I would love all of that!" She gave him a quick squeeze and Leonard let go of her. She could see Leonard was still not sure how to react to her news on how nervous he looked. So for that rest of that night they just enjoyed themselves and Leonard even suggested to go with her to see her new therapist for moral support. Which she could not say no to since he was giving her his puppy dog eyes and knew it would be nice to have him there since she was not use to talking no one about her problems except for Leonard and her parents.

The couple went to bed early that night due to both were exhausted from that morning. Also after they ate and some time during the movie Leonard could not hide the fact how turned on he was since Penny was cuddling so close. So she fixed his problem, which led Leonard to setting her off in high screams of excitement. They both fell asleep in her bed with him holding her and both with a smile on their face. But before Leonard could fall asleep, "My cute tissue still hurts where you bit it." Making Penny laugh and how much she could not help herself. It is what they both needed with big plans for the next few days to weeks ahead
