So because I like you guys so much and I feel so bad that you didn't get an update last week, I am going to give you two this week.

Reviews are always appreciated and encouraged. If you need a prompt, what was your favourite line?

Enjoy!

Penny spent the previous morning scouring the internet for potential jobs, she hadn't heard back from Nina, which was never a good sign. After sending her resume to a couple of places, she finally got a positive response from Cal-Tech's admissions office. They were looking for an administrative assistant and Penny really needed a job. Getting paid almost twenty bucks an hour wasn't bad either. This morning, they offered for her to come and interview for the position at 11:30 today.

Penny scrambled to get ready as she woke up late and only saw the email two hours before she was supposed to meet with the interviewer, she quickly showered and tossed on a black pencil skirt with a pair of black pumps and a pretty turquoise blouse. With an hour left, she quickly printed off a hard copy of her updated resume and left the apartment. Not wanting to be late, she took a taxi to Cal-Tech.

She arrived ten minutes ahead of schedule. Penny swelled with pride. It was a small achievement, but punctuality was not her strong suit, though she wouldn't tell the interviewer that. The interview went well, or so she thought. They told her that they would get in touch with her even if she wasn't the successful candidate. Penny decided to let Sheldon and his beautiful mind work, even though she could have easily popped by his office for a quick visit, so she called a taxi and went home.

With a free day, Penny decided to clean her apartment. She turned on some Shania and went to work. Her afternoon flew by and soon she was left with an apartment that was most definitely up to Sheldon's standards. Penny took a quick break and pulled out her phone to text Amy.

what are you doing tonight?

Penny quickly sent the text and waited. While she waited, her cat snuggled up on the couch beside her for a nap before his regularly scheduled nap. Penny sighed.

"What am I going to do with you, Boogaloo?" She rhetorically asked while she scratched behind his ear. Her phone buzzed back with Amy's ring tone.

Well, since Leonard is going over to Sheldon's to play Halo, I was going to re-organize our DVD collection based on the raunchiness of the content. For example, Basic Instinct would come before Disney's The Little Mermaid. :)

Penny laughed at her friends reply. Only she would organize her DVD collection by sexual content.

I was thinking maybe you want to do something? You want to come over? We can drink wine and paint our nails or something.

Almost immediately, Amy sent her reply.

I'll bring a movie.

Penny smiled at her friends reply, picked up her laptop from the coffee table and began browsing the auto trader website for a used car. She couldn't afford to take cabs everywhere in Pasadena, she needed her own car. Penny found a pretty nice 1993 Acura Integra for $2000. She contacted the seller and she told him that she could come to look at it on Sunday. Penny hung up her phone, changed into some comfy shorts and a t-shirt and watched some bad tv while she waited for her friend to arrive. Everything felt like it was getting back to normal, Penny felt at home in her old Pasadena apartment, across the hall from a man who she didn't expect to be falling for.

After two and half reruns of Two and a Half Men, Amy was knocking on Penny's door. Penny called to her friend while grabbing a bottle of wine from the fridge that the door was open. The girls situated themselves in her living room as Penny uncorked the bottle of wine, poured it into two glasses and lined up the nail polish on the coffee table. Penny picked out a punchy red color for her friend's nails as Amy put in Shakespeare in Love.

"So how was your date with Sheldon?" Amy inquired as Penny brushed the polish onto her friend's fingertips. Penny blushed.

"How do you know I went on a date with Sheldon?" Penny retorted. Amy cocked her head to the side as Penny finished off Amy's right hand.

"Penny, please." She replied. Penny rolled her eyes and took a sip of her wine to fight off a grin that was threatening to invade her face.

"It was lovely." Penny admitted as she continued painting Amy's left hand. The thought of him between her thighs made her stomach tighten with excitement. Penny felt her heart rate increase and she felt flush. Amy's eyes grew wider.

"Oh my God! Did you guys…" Amy started. She looked toward the door.

"Did you have sex with Sheldon?" Amy finally asked. Her voice was hushed, like he was in the next room or something. Penny felt her blush deepen as she finished up her friend's nails.

"No! No we didn't." Penny concluded as she tightened the cap on the polish and set it on the coffee table. She quickly licked at her lips and looked down at the floor.

"I really wanted to though." Penny finally confessed while glancing up to meet her striking blue eyes. She couldn't get him out of her brain. All she wanted was to be under him. Amy grinned and picked up her glass of wine.

"Amy did you and Sheldon ever.." Penny started. Amy quickly shook her head. Penny resisted the urge to let out a sigh of relief.

"I mean we did get physical toward the end of our relationship, but it never got as far as sex." Penny nodded. Though she was relieved, she sort of wished that she wouldn't have been his first. She had to admit though, she was glad to find out that he wasn't totally inexperienced.

The girls continued talking and Amy told Penny about hers and Leonard's colorful sex life. Penny wasn't aware that Leonard had a couple of kinks that Amy happily obliged. After their movie, Penny and Amy made their way over to Sheldon's. After lightly knocking on the door, Amy and Penny entered. Penny half expected to see all four of the boys but it was only Leonard and Sheldon.

"Where's Howard?" Penny quickly asked. Leonard adjusted his headset and continued to furiously tap his thumbs on the colorful Xbox controller buttons.

"He's at home, he mentioned today that Bernadette caught a cold from their daughter, so I banished him until he can show me two consecutive negative throat cultures spaced twelve hours apart. I've already begun my prophylactic course of antibiotics and I suggest that you do the same Penny." Sheldon told them without turning his attention away from the game. Penny looked over at Amy who gave her a knowing nod. Penny rolled her eyes and sat down on the white armchair and Amy sat on the far end of the couch next to Leonard.

After losing to Raj and his cousin Sanjay over Xbox live, the boys packed it up and put away their game. Leonard and Amy said their good byes to Penny and Sheldon, leaving them alone in his apartment. Sheldon cleared the coffee table and washed Leonard's glass in the sink. Penny stood up and walked into the kitchen and leaned her back against the island. She watched as he put away the glass in the cupboard.

"Do I really have to go and get antibiotics?" Penny asked. Sheldon put his palms on the counter on either side of Penny. She stuck her bottom lip out at him and tugged at his waist. Sheldon leaned into her, she noticed the muscles in his forearm flex underneath his skin as he supported his weight on his arms. His lips were only a few inches away from hers. Their eyes met and Penny felt the familiar tingle in her lower abdomen as he studied her closely.

"I suppose you don't have to, but I highly recommend that you do." Sheldon firmly said while inching closer to her. Penny felt her knees go weak and she closed her eyes. His lips barely brushed hers before he was pulling away. Penny opened her eyes and he was pushing himself off of the island with a satisfied smirk on his face.

She stood there as he walked back into the living room with her lips parted and her heart pounding in her chest. Who knew that Sheldon Cooper could be such a tease. Penny quickly licked her lips, shook the naughty thoughts from her mind and turned toward him. Two could play at this game.

Penny stalked into the living room. She could hear her pulse pounding in her ears. She was determined not to be his prey. Her steps were light and she gingerly sat on the couch beside him. Sheldon smiled as she looked him over. He knew exactly what he was doing to her. Sheldon wasn't as innocent as he seemed.

Penny placed her hand on his thigh and let her fingertips graze his arousal. She leaned into him and placed her other hand on his chest. She could feel his heart pounding beneath his ribcage. She licked at her lips and touched them to his earlobe. He jerked in his pants as she ran her finger along his length. Sheldon let out a breath that sounded more like a whimper.

"I know what you're trying to do Sheldon, and it isn't going to work." Penny softly whispered into his ear. She gently took his earlobe in between her teeth and playfully nibbled at his soft skin.

"The only difference is, I'm a big 'ol five and I know how to get what I want." Penny cautioned. She heard him swallow and she let her lips travel down his neck. She gently kissed and nipped at the pulse that thumped in his throat. Sheldon sighed as Penny groped at his hardness through his pants. Penny pulled away and pressed her forehead against his. His breath was soft, but it was coming out quickly. She had to pull herself away before she devoured him right there on the brown leather sofa.

Sheldon suddenly pulled her into his lap and pressed his lips to hers. His kisses were rough, frantic, and hungry. Like she was a steak and he hadn't eaten in weeks. Penny couldn't deny him. She kissed back, matching his vigor. Her hands ran through his soft hair and traveled down the back of his neck, resting on his shoulders.

Penny felt him buck his hips to gain better friction and Penny obliged. The zipper that sat atop his hardness rubbed against her through her shorts. Sheldon's hands gripped at her ass, as he pushed her harder onto him. She moaned into their kiss at the same time Sheldon did. It was incredibly hot hearing him make those primal noises. Penny let him explore her mouth with his tongue. He was eager and curious with his movements and Penny couldn't help but let herself get swept away.

Sheldon moved his mouth to her neck. He gently sucked at her soft skin while he ground himself into her. Penny couldn't help but cry out when he bit at her collarbone. Sheldon's arms snaked around her waist and she let him overpower her. He swiftly moved her from his lap and laid her down on the couch. Penny watched him as he watched her heaving chest. Things may have gotten too heated.

"Penny.." Sheldon started his breathless sentence, his eyes flicked up to meet hers. Penny licked at her lips and gently pushed him off of her. He told her that he wanted to wait. Penny had no choice but to respect his wishes. She sat up on the couch and collected her thoughts while trying to catch her breath.

"Sheldon, do you want to go on another date with me?" Penny asked him while staring at the floor. Sheldon grinned.

"I do." He replied. He seemed to be still catching his breath. Good.

"Tomorrow?" She said while catching his gaze with hers. His face was flushed and his breathing was exaggerated. His broad chest pressed against his t-shirt on every inhale. Penny smiled.

"Tomorrow." Sheldon confirmed with a slight nod of his head. Penny stood up and bit at her lip. She was going to have to take a very cold shower.

"Good I'll pick you up at noon." Penny replied as she turned on her heel and walked toward the front door. Sheldon cleared his throat and Penny turned toward him. She quickly waved goodbye and left his apartment for the safety of her own. A cold shower would do, but masturbating couldn't hurt, could it?
