A/N - A very very short Chapter, but it covers everything I wanted to.
Penny nearly drowned herself with her drink at Sheldon's statement.
"Sheldon, did you just mean what I think you meant?"
"Penny." he shifted uncomfortably in his chair. "I always say what I mean to say."
"Perhaps I didn't understand what you said." Penny took another sip of her wine.
"Very likely." He hesitated and then continued. "Penny I have decided I want to be your boyfriend."
"Excuse me? Did you just say you want to be my boyfriend."
"Penny if you are to be my girlfriend you will need to learn to listen to me."
"Sheldon if you are to be my boyfriend you will need to learn to not be obnoxious." She replied.
Penny fiddled with her cutlery, waiting for Sheldon to say something, but he didn't so she just blurted out what was on her mind "Why?"
"Why what Penny? Why does your champagne fizz?"
Penny shook her head. "Sheldon, why do you want to be my boyfriend?"
"When Amy was pushing me to be her boyfriend, I realised then that I didn't feel about her as I do about you." He stopped talking and nervously took a sip of his drink.
"You have feelings for me?" Penny again bought her hand up to her throat, her eyes widened and she opened her mouth in complete amazement.
"Your champagne fizzes because of the dirt in your glass." Sheldon raised his head and continued. "It was once believed that imperfections in the glass actually caused the fizz, but recent research has proved that it is the dirt in your glass that causes the bubbles."
"You have feeling for me Sheldon?" She asked again.
"I thought that would be obvious, I am taking you out on a date, I bought you flowers and chocolates. I have never done any of these actions for anyone else."
"But Sheldon, do you understand exactly what being a boyfriend would mean?"
"So we are going to have the talk about the coitus now?" he asked.
It was Penny's turn to be uncomfortable now. "Sheldon, no, I just meant, being a boyfriend is more than just going on dates sweetie. It's about being there for the other person, supporting the other person, having fun, sharing interests, but yes it's about wanting the other person too Sheldon, you know in a physical way."
Sheldon cleared his throat. "I am prepared to try Penny."
Penny looked at the man sitting across the table from her, could she really consider him boyfriend material, with a few tweaks in his personality yeah why not. "Sheldon, I'm really flattered, but let's just see how this date goes shall we."
"It's going well so far isn't it?" Sheldon said just as the waiter returned to the table to serve the appertisers.
"Yes sweetie, it's going well." She smiled at him.
