Sorry been awhile since I updated. Been busy and lack of wifi. Anyways should have plenty of updates due to being stuck inside due to fridged weather here where I live. I'm excited for the next few new episodes. I don't own TBBT. Enjoy!
Chapter 39
"Are you trying to corrupt our daughter with everything you like?" Penny asked still standing by the door. After watching her husband and daughter for awhile as they watched Star Wars. But as she spoke up, Penny never seen Leonard sit up so quickly, clinging to Nova. Penny tried holding her laugh as she raised her eyebrow and gave Leonard a deadpan look.
"Ghobe'..." Leonard answered with a guilty look on his face once he realized it was Penny standing by the door. Then smiled as he stood up, "QamuSHa!" he told her as he gently laid Nova in her bassinet and began to walk over to greet Penny.
Penny put her hands on her hips and raised an eyebrow, "Did you just answer me in Klingon?"
Leonard stopped in his tracks and put his hands behind hi back. He tilted his head some and gave Penny, what she called his puppy dog look and answered her question. "HIja'..."
Penny rolled he eyes but could not bare Leonard's look and sighed, "Come here, you sci fi lovin man." She relaxed her face with a big grin as Leonard came over and wrapped his arms around her waist. Penny put her arms around his neck as they gave each other a peck on their lips. "I'm in trouble if our daughter becomes as adorable as you."
Leonard smiled with a chuckle, "True but if she has your charm and bats her eyes like you do, I'm going to be the one in more trouble and harder to tell her no."
"She is going to play you like a fiddle. Just like I did with my dad. I just had to say 'But daddy I love you,' and would get away with anything. Drove my mom crazy." Penny told Leonard with a smug smile.
"Hu'tegh!" Leonard cursed in Klingon.
"Really Leonard, not in front of the baby!" Penny said in a whispered yell as she let go of her husband and pulled away but gave him another deadpan look. She went over to Nova and picked her up since she was becoming fussy and Penny knew she had to feed her soon.
Leonard smiled knowing Penny was only joking because she did not understand Kilngon. But only smiled bigger as he sat next to his wife as she began to feed Nova. He helped her get adjusted and then put his arm over Penny's shoulder. To many outsiders they would think he was being a perverted husband watching his wife breastfeed their daughter. But to him it was beautiful bond between mother and daughter. Plus Penny was never shy of him watching, because it was out of love. As Leonard kissed Penny's cheek, he decider to ask about her day. "So how did your auditions go?"
Penny turned her head slightly with a uncertain look, still feeling confused about her future. "Well to be honest I skipped out on the waitress part on NCIS. I walked in and there were just so many other woman who were blonde just like me. Something told me just turn around and leave, so I did. I just don't want another part that is only going to last thirty seconds to a minute, less that if all they were looking for was just another blonde looking for her way up the acting chain. But I did go to the Criminal Minds audtion. They said they liked me fore the part I read for and the character would be in most of the episode. It is a little well exciting and bitter sweet."
Leonard frowned in confusion as he was now rubbing his hand up and down Penny's shoulder as his free one was placed on her knee. "Why's that?"
"I came out here when I was eighteen hoping to become this big star. My dream was to become the next Marylin Monroe and be with Kurt forever. Well we all know how that ended with him. Then I met you but my dreams never ended. That was supposed to be my purpose in life and that what I was passionate about. I had this dead end job as a waitress but still had you and my friends. When I broke up with you I never imagined we get back together because I hurt you really bad. And then getting pregnant was never part of my plan either... What I'm getting at is, you are so passionate about your work, your movies, comic books, and all your fantasy sci fi stuff. But you are also passionate about your friends, me, an of course being a great dad to our Nova. I ever wondered if I would ever feel that. So passionate about life like you do. When I was auditioning I realized that if I don't get this part or of I do that acting does not make me as happy as it use to do. You, our friends, and Nova make me happy. So of I do get thi part, after that I think I'm done for awhile. I don't want to miss out on Nova's life. I rather be a big impact in her life now than later, than shooting a movie or television show miles away." Penny sighed after coming all clean.
"Wow!" Leonard was surprised his wife let everything out. "Pretty big deal, huh?"
Penny nodded at Leonard as she moved Nova to her shoulder to began to burp her. "It is."
Leonard moved his hand from Penny's knee to Nova's head to stroke her hair and gave his wife a hopeful smile. "So does that mean you will start watching Dr. Who with me and all three of us go to Comic Con together as a family?"
Penny raised an eyebrow with an eyeroll as she patted on her daughter's back gently, "Leonard, sweetheart, I had an epiphany
not stroke."
Leonard chuckled as he kissed the top of Nova's head and then Penny on the cheek, "Hey a guy can dream..."
