I have decided to post this before going to bed. Please leave positive reviews.
Six days went by and Sheldon and Amy are in love with their new room. They have a routine where they would wake up at 7:30, eat breakfast, play a while, lunch, play longer, dinner, play for a little bit and then go do their bedtime routines.
That is until Thursday when Leonard got the call from the university daycare telling them that they would love to have the= kids to play there.
During dinner that night of spaghetti and hot dogs, Leonard announces, "Listen kids, tomorrow I'm taking you two to the university."
"Are we in trouble?" Amy asked worried.
"No, your not in trouble," he says, "I'm taking you guys to daycare."
"But I don't need a daycare!" Sheldon cried putting down his fork.
Leonard just remembered that Sheldon doesn't like change. "I know it's a change for you two and you don't like change. But it will be for a little while."
"Well I refuse." Sheldon crossed his arms and turned his head away from them.
"Don't you worry sweetie," Penny said coaxing him, "We'll be there to drop you off, and we'll be there to pick you up. Besides, it's only for twice a week."
Sheldon pouted. This isn't getting anywhere.
"Now Sheldon, we have to work and there's no one to watch you and Amy. Also I work across the campus," Leonard said. He looks over at the boy pointedly. "And if you behave tomorrow, I'll take you to see Aquaman tomorrow night with Uncle Howard, Uncle Raj and Stuart."
It gave Sheldon a lot of thought. As long as it's only twice a week and and not for very long. Sheldon finally nodded.
Later that night, Sheldon and Amy are tucked in their beds and Penny finished telling them a bedtime story of Dr. Seuss. She closed the door and after Sheldon's Vulcan hearing listens to Penny's footsteps fading. He gestures to Amy to come out of bed and climb into his train and lay next to him.
"Are you nervous?" Amy asked Sheldon.
"I'm not sure," Sheldon answers holding his koala. "I may be apprehensive."
"At least we still have each other," Amy says snuggling next to him.
"Mmmmhmmm," Sheldon mumbles.
She asked, "Can you promise that no matter what happens, we'll still be siblings together?"
"I don't know how to keep promises… But I think I can."
She lightly kissed him on the cheek before settling down. "I'll still love you as my brother no matter what."
"You're my favorite sister other than Missy," he mumbled once more.
The next day, Leonard drives the kids to the daycare center.
He brings them in the tiny classroom with a bunch of kids playing, drawing, and even reading books.
After a quick chat with the caretaker, Leonard hugged the kids goodbye and told them he'll be back in a few hours. Once he left to go to work, Sheldon and Amy both turned around and holding hands looking very nervous.
After Leonard finished work, he picked up Sheldon and Amy and headed home.
"How's your first day at daycare?"
Amy answered, "It was ok I guess… I drew a nice picture!"
"That's great princess. Sheldon, how's your day?"
Sheldon didn't answer. He was staring out the car window.
Looking in the rearview mirror, Leonard asked concerned, "Are you ok buddy?"
"I'm fine. The day was fine. I read a lot of books," Sheldon says sounding glum.
"You sound upset. What's wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong," Sheldon replied. "I just… Didn't like it there."
Leonard sighed, "I know it's difficult to adjust to the whole thing. But it's going to be alright. Amy's there with you."
But that somehow didn't make Sheldon feel better. Leonard knows something is wrong but he won't get a straight answer out of him.
