A/N: So I decided I wasn't finished with my gift story. I'm not too sure if this will be the last chapter now. At the moment I intend it to be, but if I get an idea I might do another.

In saying that, this chapter is from Leonard's POV, it is not sympathetic to Sheldon at all, I love Sheldon I really do, but I think this is how Leonard would react to finding out that Sheldon is buying Penny gifts and obviously what that would imply about their relationship. He would not be happy.


After walking out of the apartment Leonard walked around the block about 5 times, he watched at Howard, Raj and Amy leave and decided to return to the apartment. He knocked quietly on 4B, but there was no response so he knew that Penny was still in his apartment. However angry he was he didn't want to walk into something that would make them all embarrassed so he made sure to make a lot of noise opening the door.

As he expected Penny was leaning against the kitchen island and Sheldon was drying a cup, Leonard walked in, didn't say anything just went to the fridge, they really were being quite obvious.

"You feeling better Leonard?" Penny asked.

"Not really." Leonard wasn't really in the mood to play games with these two, but he wasn't going to make it easy for them either. He noticed that Sheldon was still drying the same cup. "Should be dry by now Sheldon I would think."

Sheldon looked at Leonard and then the cup and just replied, "Oh!" then he placed it away in the cupboard and placed the tea towel on the rail of the stove.

Leonard sat on the couch, he saw Penny sneak a quick look at Sheldon and he at her. Leonard grabbed the latest copy of Physics Today and started to re-read the article on Surface-Healing Nanoparticles, he really didn't want to, but he was on their case now, he wasn't going to allow them any time alone if he can help it.

Penny finally left at 10pm, and Sheldon went straight to bed. Leonard told Sheldon he was off to bed too and they both went to their rooms. Five minutes later Leonard sneaked back into the lounge room and sat on the sofa waiting for Sheldon, he didn't have to wait long.

"Going somewhere?" Leonard asked as Sheldon tried to quietly walk past the sofa.

"Leonard? What are you doing up still?"

"I would ask you the same question, but I think a more important question I have, is where are you going?" Leonard flicked the lamp light on.

Sheldon looked at Leonard and thought about his response. "To my desk of course."

"Oh really, seemed like you were heading to the door, now why would that be?"

Sheldon looked at Leonard with his haughty look of derision, but Leonard wasn't having any of that.

"Really where were you heading at this time of night Sheldon? To visit Penny perhaps?"

"Why would I visit Penny at this time of night?"

"So tell me Sheldon, do you knock on her door three times when you guys meet up for your secret rendezvous?"

"Secret rendezvous Leonard? What are you talking about?" Sheldon exclaimed as he walked over to his desk and grabbed his stapler. "I wanted my stapler, now good night."

"Your stapler, you came to get your stapler? Why?"

"I thought it would obvious, I need to staple some pages together."

"So where are they?" Leonard stood up and walked over to Sheldon.

"Where are what Leonard. You really aren't making much sense at the moment you know." Sheldon replied using his full height to try to intimidate Leonard.

Leonard looked at Sheldon and just shock his head, he really cannot believe that they are even having this conversation. "I'm going back to bed. Make sure the door is locked if you decide to visit Penny."

The next morning Leonard walked out into the living room. Sheldon was sitting at the kitchen island eating his breakfast.

"Good Morning Sheldon." Leonard grabbed a cup and filled it with the freshly brewed coffee and took a sip.

"Leonard." Sheldon grabbed his bowl and went over to the sink and washed it.

"Sheldon, I will just say this the once. Tell Amy the situation or I will." Leonard walked back to his bedroom and shut his door.
