Penny had always loved this holiday. As for her husband, not much until they celebrated it together the first time many years ago. Since then they enjoyed Christmas together as friends, a couple, or not even a couple.
For many Christmas cash was short soshe would just give Leonard herself, which he never complained one bit because he loved her. The one Christmas her and Leonard were engaged, they spent it at Amy's and had to entertain Raj's dad. After dinner and Amy amd Sheldon had an "awe" moment, Leonard and Penny went back to her apartment. They exchanged gifts, watched a Christmas movie, and Leonard asked for one more gift. Of course Penny did not refuse to give herself to him.
The first year as a married couple, they ended up going to Nebraska. Their second year they were on edge with each other because of the Christmas tree and the whole Luke Cage fiasco. But did end up making up and exchaging gifts. Their third year celebrating Christmas as married couple they took a trip out to Catilina.
This year, Leonard asked Penny what she wanted to do. Raj once again was spending the holiday with Anu and some of her family. Of course, Howard and Bernadette were busy with family. As for Amy and Sheldon they had pretty much locked theirselves in their apartment to relook over their discovery.
Penny wanted to go back to the east coast, but Beverly was ignoring their calls, Albert was out of town for his last expedition before his retirement, and as for Leonard's siblings that was a no. Both his brother and sister heard the news about how Penny did not want kids, so for the last few weeks they were rubbing it in Leonard's face he would never enjoy being a parent. Penny felt bad for him on that perspective since she was the one who did not want kids. She made sure Leonard was okay after those calls. Penny was glad he was after she talked to him and joked that instead of spoiling kids, they get to spoil themselves instead. So she really had no clue what to do or where to go for Christmas.
One day Leonard came home and told Penny to pack her bags anand passport for a week. She was going to ask why until Leonard surprised her. "Well if you remember our first Valentine's day?"
"Yeah, were I felt like death and passed it to Sheldon. Then you had a romantic trip to Switzerland with Raj." Penny told her husband as she teased him.
"Yeah, yeah, I hope I never have to that again. Raj not Switzerland." Leonard quickly said making his wife try hiding her smile and laugh. "Amyways... I know we just went to New York for your birthday but how about a week in Geneva, Switzerland for Christmas. You know finally..."
All Penny could do was hug him and tell him he was the best husband ever. This was going to be one extraordinary Christmas.
