In these next few chapters you'll be able to understand why I labelled this as 'angst' - I'm sorry!
We begin to get a bit angry with a few arguments, but that's just their way of communicating plus, imagine the sexual tension ;)

Amy didn't know where she was going, she just walked. She was so confused. Now she knew how Sheldon must have felt when he went on his train trip; she needed to get away and think.

Sheldon was not far behind the whole way. He could see Golden Gate Bridge getting closer and closer. After checking his watch he realised that they had been gone for almost one-and-a-half hours.

"Amy! Please wait!" He called after her

"Sheldon! Go away! I need to be alone" Amy shouted back without even turning around.

"Being alone was what caused this in the first place" Sheldon replied.

Amy turned swiftly she was tired of his constant need to be right and lack of understanding that she needed space, "No, these problems were caused by you" Sheldon had never seen her this angry before.

"Me? I haven't done anything!" Sheldon argued back in defence, but she was gone and out of earshot.

A thick fog was falling over the city. It was getting dark, Sheldon didn't like it, it was late and he was out in an unknown city. However, Amy was still walking away from him and he couldn't leave her. Therefore, he continue on after her, closing the gap between them in an effort to see her through the thick mist. They were getting closer to the bridge. He didn't want Amy walking over it in the middle of the night, although there was less traffic at this time of night, it still wasn't safe. He needed to keep her safe.

"Amy! Please!" he bellowed one last time.

She was almost at the bridge. Amy still had no idea where she was going. It was very dark and very foggy. She didn't know what to do. She had no idea how long they'd been out but it was definitely too far from the hotel to walk back now. Sheldon was still behind her. She didn't know what to do. Where could she go? Just before the footpath lead them across Golden Gate Bridge, Amy heard Sheldon shout after her, she stopped in defeat and leant against the railing. It was so foggy that she could hardly see the water below.

Sheldon caught up and stood waiting behind her. The silence that followed heightened the sound of their ragged breath. Their hair was clinging to their skin either with sweat from walking so far and so fast, or because of the moist fog that continued to fall over San Francisco. It gave an ominous mystery to the landscape. Car headlights, street lamps and the dimly lit rooms from the city were barely visible through the thick mist. It felt as if they were completely alone.

Amy turned to face Sheldon, tears were streaming down her cheeks, "I'm sorry" she apologised. It had suddenly dawned on her; she was out in the middle of the night in a strange city, it was dark and hazy, she was miles from the security of her hotel room, Leonard and Penny had no idea where they were. And she had dragged Sheldon along the whole way.

He stood there now. Watching her. Expressionless.

"Don't be" he stepped closer, "Just tell me what to do"

"I don't know what I want you to do" Amy wrapped her arms around herself, now that she had stopped, the cold was getting to her.

"Please, I just need to know" Sheldon was adamant that he would get her to talk.

"I told you I don't know!" Amy moaned, exasperated. She was tired and so confused. She had never been in a situation like this and didn't know how to handle it, the only emotion she seemed to be able to comprehend was anger, "I asked for space which you haven't given me, you are immature, you're selfish and our relationship was unhealthy, especially for me!" she cried.

Both took a step away from each other. Sheldon was shocked at the cruelness of her words, Amy could not believe how harsh she had been. She didn't mean to, it had just sort of come out.

Sheldon became angry in defence "Yeah well you weren't so great yourself" his eyebrows furrowed, "You pushed me so far. You were always trying to talk about our relationship and what I wasn't doing right. It made me feel like I wasn't good enough, and now that you've broken up with me, I know it's true"

His voice rose to shouting point, "I've been the one trying to fix this. I wasn't just going to stand by and let you walk away!" Sheldon was close to tears.

He wasn't expecting to go off on a rant but all his anger just seemed to escape. He didn't have time to recover before Amy was shouting back.

"Sheldon! Let me walk away. I need this. We both do!"

And she walked away.

I'm sorry for the angst. There will be more to come. I just like writing angst and building up the sexual tension before it's all released and everything's okay again! There will be some fluff eventually!
