Present Day

Standing up, Penny and Sheldon held each other's hand and went toward the door, suddenly Penny stopped turned to Sheldon, leaned up and kissed his cheek.

"Penny"

"For the future Moonpie, and for luck"

Sheldon went to explain that there is no such thing as luck but he stopped himself. He smiled and they left the apartment to join their family and friends.

As they opened the door, Sheldon and Penny were engulfed in hugs from both of their mothers.

"How are you Darling" said Darlene

"I getting there Mum"

"Thank Jesus that you are back with us Penny" said Mary

"Mum I would appreciate it if you would let go"

"Shelly of course"

"How are you Sheldon?"

"I am fine Mrs Queen"

"Well" both their mothers said

"Well what" replied Sheldon

"When is the wedding" said Mary

"Yes Penny when you and this boy going to get married" said Darlene

"Mum, Mrs Queen, I I" Sheldon replied looking like a deer caught in floodlights

"Well we were thinking of running off to Vegas as soon as you were asleep"

"PENNY"

"Calm down, Moonpie only joking"

"You better be young lady"

"Dad"

"Hello Slugger"

"It's good to see you"

"I am just happy that you pulled through darling"

"Sis, why is you always manage to get the good looking ones"

"Christine, I got really lucky, I found the one this time"

"You mean that Penny" said Sheldon

"Yes Sheldon, I have never felt this way about anyone"

"Gee Shelley, of course she does, and after all being my twin how she cannot love ya"

"Missy"

Everyone laughed and hugged.

Doctor Wallace watched as Penny and Sheldon interacted with all the family and friends that had gathered there today. She knew she had made the right choice, she believed that it would be good for Penny if she came out of hospital at this point and started to build a life with Sheldon"

At that moment Anne arrived with the rest of Penny's things, Louise told her to put everything in Sheldon's apartment.

"Hello everyone, can I have your attention"

"Today I decided it would be good for Penny to move back here and after watching all of you I believe it is the right choice, Penny will still come to the hospital day clinic each day so that we can work through things and help her fully recover, but I believe that she and Sheldon need this to happen for them to have a chance of working on their relationship"

"You think I am ready Doc"

"Penny I believe that your recovery would be better here with Sheldon, it will be rough at times but I think you need to be here to really begin to heal"

"Here that Sheldon, we can see each other more often"

"I would like that very much"

"Louise would you and Anne like to celebrate Christmas and maybe join our little gang"

"I will speak for Louise, I would be happy to do that, though we would have to visit our families Christmas day but we could also pop in"

"Good I want to meet that daughter of yours"

Everyone joined in the celebration of Penny's release and the addition of two new friends, while Mary was not sure about the two ladies relationship and whether she approved, after a while she found that she had a kindred soul in craft and cooking in Anne, and she figured that these people were special to Shelly and Penny and if they said they were ok then she would open her mind a bit.

After a few hours the group began to disperse, some going home, others going to bed or asleep on the couch, Penny and Sheldon found themselves having a cold drink in the kitchen.

"Sheldon"

"Penny"

"Do you want to go out maybe to the comic store?"

"Even though it is not comic book night, I would love to go with you"

"Come on"

Penny went to her apartment and got the keys to the car and they went down the stairs to the parking lot.

Sheldon got in the passenger's side and Penny got behind the wheel. Sheldon smiled to himself waiting for her to notice.

Penny turned on the engine and noticed that the Check Engine light did not come on

"Sheldon do you get my car serviced"

"Yes Penny, I had decided that if we were going to be travelling together than I needed to ensure that your car was properly maintained"

"Thank you Sweetie"

"Penny"

"Sheldon"

"Thank you for coming back"

"Sheldon" Penny said as she leaned over and gave him a sloppy kiss on the cheek

They pulled out the parking lot and after a while they arrived at the comic book store. They got out and walked over the store.

As they entered Stuart said "Hello Sheldon"

"Hello Stuart"

"Penny you are back"

"Yes Stuart"

"Great to see ya"

"You too Stuart"

"Sheldon, I am just going to the back of the store to look at something"

"Ok Penny"

Sheldon talked to Stuart for a moment before moving to the new releases.

At that moment someone entered the comic book store

"Sheldon"

"Leonard"

Penny hearing the exchange decided to hide for a while in back so Leonard would not see her but she could hear.

"Well what brings you hear Sheldon, I heard Penny was out"

"You did"

"Did she kick you out already?"

"No" Sheldon replied realising that he had not seen Penny.

"She will you know, she will get fed up with you and leave"

"Why do you say that Leonard"

"Because Penny did not like you and she needs a man who can satisfy her"

"Is that so?"

"Yes, Penny is a slut and you know it, she would sleep with anyone"

"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME" Penny screamed as she came out of hiding

"PENNY" Leonard exclaimed
