The Girls' Night Intervention- Possibilities & Plans
Thank you for all your kind words. Thank you for your continued support... Thank you, just because you took the time to read any or even all of my stories. To the guests that have left reviews...Thank you as well. :)
When Amy finally arrived home that night, she entered her apartment, closed the door and leaned up against it. She exhaled, letting her whole body relax. The accumulated stress and irritation she had been feeling for a while now slowly subsided. All her patience and love had not been in vain after all. Sheldon Cooper wanted her, wanted a real future with her and the best part of the night was the way he kissed her… all his emotions pouring out in two sensuous kisses that left her weak in the knees and secretly wanting so much more. Now, she was able to envision an entire future with him beginning with physical intimacy, followed by an engagement and concluding with married life in a split level home somewhere near the university with even the possibility of offspring. These were all the things she had come to want from him and with him over the years. Never before had she let anyone get close to her heart fearing rejection…he was the only one who managed to break through. Tonight, she also realized that Sheldon had done exactly the same, although to get through his barriers, Amy needed a sledge hammer to knock down that Berlin wall. But it was down for the most part, just some odd concrete bricks still lying here and there , however, now both could unite to become one. She thought about just how extraordinary the events of the past four hours had been and thanked her lucky stars for persistent friends.
After what seemed an eternity standing there recollecting the events of the evening, she snapped out of it, shed her clothes and took a long hot bath, imagining that the bubbles resting softly on her skin were Sheldon's feather light kisses, his hands gently sweeping over her body. She closed her eyes and let her mind and hands wander.
Upon entering her room after an invigorating bath, she grabbed her phone to see if Sheldon had actually sent a text with details concerning 'date night'. In fact, he had sent two texts. The first wishing her a good night and the second saying that he loved her. Both messages made Amy's heart skip a beat in spite of the fact that she was disappointed to see there were no plans laid out for the next day. She chalked it up to it being very late so he was probably asleep. She sat there on her bed wrapped in her bath towel thinking if she should reply. 'He would see the message in the morning and maybe that would prompt him to make arrangements if he wanted a date with me,' she thought so she sent him a text with two simple words: I know. She contemplated whether to include some kind of smiley face but decided against it as he would probably deem it as childish. She dressed for bed and climbed in, snuggling her pillow, wishing it were Sheldon. 'Soon,' she thought and giggled to herself in delight. She fell asleep almost immediately thinking of him.
The next morning Sheldon rose from bed and grabbed his phone. He turned it on hoping to find a message from Amy. There was one. He smirked as he read it…two simple words that meant everything to him. Now, he would be able to put his plan of action into effect…starting in just a few hours.
Amy awoke refreshed, as if the last couple of months had been erased almost instantaneously. She reached for her glasses, slipping them on her face and then she reached for her phone. Nothing. The absence of a new text puzzled her but she would not let it ruin her high from last night. She went about her daily routine and left for work.
It was a relatively busy morning for her at the lab and she hadn't noticed that the time flew by as fast as it did until she heard a series of triple knocks and her name being called. 'Sheldon,' she thought. Her heart started racing with just the thought of him coming to see her. It had been a while since they actually saw each other at work.
"Come in," she said buoyantly as she tried to smooth down her already smooth hair and coat.
"Hello Amy, I hope I'm not interrupting," he said as he kept his left hand behind his back, hiding the flowers and bag.
"No, I was …um," she really didn't know what to say so she quickly glanced at the clock on the wall, "getting ready for lunch."
"Oh good, I caught you just in time then." he cooed in delight as he brought forward the items, a bag containing their lunch and a small bouquet of white tulips.
Amy eyes went directly to the beautiful white flowers. She was amazed at how pretty they were; simply wrapped in a long, silver, silk ribbon.
"These are for you Amy," he said as he timidly handed her the flowers.
"Sheldon, they are absolutely beautiful," she said in awe. "Where did you find them?" she asked as she retrieved a beaker with water to put them in.
"I bought them this morning on the way here. Leonard stopped at a florist's and I saw them. Did you know that white tulips are pretty rare…but then again, so are you," he said shyly as he was wringing his hands.
"Oh Sheldon, this is so sweet and romantic of you," she whispered. Amy stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek as a thank you since no words came to her.
"The florist said that if you snip the ends off every day and put an aspirin in the vase with cool water, you can make them last up to a week," he said quietly, averting her gaze.
"I'll do that. What's in the bag?" she asked in order to change the subject as it was obvious Sheldon wasn't handling the hippy, romantic stuff too well.
"Oh, I took the liberty of getting us some lunch, I hope you don't mind," he was able to say still trying to avoid her beautiful, sparkling green eyes. He hadn't seen her happy in a while and even though it humbled him, it was also playing havoc with his hormones.
"Of course not but we could have gone to the cafeteria to get something if you wanted," Amy replied.
"I think I would prefer to be alone with you," he said confidently as he finally looked into her eyes. Amy could feel herself losing her composure so she quickly sat down. She wished she could fan herself but she didn't want to let on how aroused he had just made her. He took a seat next to her and started unpacking the food. This gave Amy adequate time to get herself together. After the awkwardness faded, their lunch date turned out to be quite pleasurable for both, reverting to a time when they were able to just 'be' and truly enjoy each other's company. When they finished, Amy cleared up and escorted Sheldon to the door.
"There are two more things before I leave. One, I would like to reinstate date nights starting with tonight."
"Okay," Amy replied nodding in agreement, "What is the second thing?"
"This," he said in a low voice stepping up to her, grabbing her hips to pull her even closer.
"Oh…" Amy uttered and before she had a chance to say anything else, Sheldon leaned down and captured her lips. His kiss was possessive and intense; making Amy press into him more till a low moan escaped them. It was a kiss that promised good things were to come.
He broke away and the evidence was clear that he wanted her…desired her in more ways than one. There was a lustful look in his eyes, one that Amy was not familiar with but yet recognized just the same.
"I will come over at 7, just be ready," Sheldon commanded.
Amy, still bewildered, managed to voice something but it was hardly comprehensible to either of them.
Sheldon threw her a wicked smile and left, the rest of his plan to be executed that night.
Trust me..Sheldon has worked out a well- thought out plan for date night...this was just the prelude. Hope you enjoyed. :)
* In answer to one of my guest reviewers, Amy has been working at the same university as Sheldon since season 7 episode 5 ;)
