A/N: So, this doesn't have anything to do with this chapter, but I'm excited about it anyway. This chapter brings my grand total of words posted on this website to over 100,000. I'm a bit obsessed with The Shamy. I'm also picking up a formal posting schedule of MWF alternating with my other current story, The Proposal Reaction (that means if you are reading both stories you get three chapters from me each week). If I'm doing two stories, it's easier for me to have a posting schedule than to just post chapters as I've finished them. Thanks for reading. Love. Love. Love.

Amy cuddled into the mass next to her. It was big and warm and smelled very good, so she smiled a sleepy little smile. That was until she realized she shouldn't be cuddling into anything other than maybe a pillow. Her brain didn't catch up with her actions until Amy screamed and fell backwards out of the bed.

Sheldon sat up and said, "Danger! Danger!" before looking around to see what had woken him up.

He was startled to see Amy on the floor between their two beds. Sheldon looked at the clock and it was only 5:30 and much too early for him to understand what was going on.

"Did you have a night terror?" Sheldon asked sleepily as Amy finally stood back up.

"I don't know. I woke up in your bed and it startled me. I don't remember getting into bed with you. I'm so sorry, Sheldon."

Sheldon just nodded. He wasn't even really aware of the situation, so he held up the blankets on his bed as if inviting Amy back into his bed. "Let's go back to sleep," he said.

Amy didn't want to take advantage of Sheldon's sleep deprived state, so she climbed back into her own bed. Sheldon whined, "No. Amy has to sleep over here or she will get upset again."

"Amy will be fine," she said. Sheldon finally just shrugged and turned over to go back to sleep.

Once Amy calmed down from the fall, she fell back asleep. When she woke, it was not from Sheldon shaking her shoulder again. He was only calling her name, and he looked afraid to touch her.

"We need to talk about this morning," Sheldon said. "I'm sorry I tried to get you to get in bed with me. I don't know what I was thinking. It won't happen again."

"I'm sure you were just trying to comfort me. You've been very sweet, and thank you for not being mad at me for getting into bed with you without your permission. I am still willing to find another place to sleep. Or I can switch with Stuart. I'm sure I would be much less likely to get into bed with Rajesh."

"Let's not test that hypothesis," Sheldon said grumpily. Then he went and pulled Amy's Star Trek dress and leggings from the closet and laid them out for her.

Amy went to get dressed for the day. It was strange wearing the outfit outside because she had bought it for Sheldon to see. It wasn't inappropriate, but it wasn't her normal clothes either.

When she returned to the main room, Sheldon was waiting to go into the bathroom with his Mr. Spock outfit. He also had a makeup case to do his eyebrows. Amy checked a few work emails while she waited for him to come back out. When he did, he looked so serious. He embodied Spock rather than just playing dress up.

Penny and Leonard were walking by when Sheldon opened the door. They stopped so that they could all go down to breakfast together.

"Looking good, guys," Penny said. She was in her regular clothes, but Leonard was wearing a Star Trek uniform of his own. His was Next Generation rather than Original Series.

Down a breakfast, Amy was eating when Sheldon got up and asked to talk to Penny privately. Amy had a feeling it was about her, but she didn't join them in case it wasn't. Of course, she knew it was when Penny returned and gave Amy a tight smile. Today would be spent largely without Sheldon, so of course he would get someone else to watch her.

"I don't know what he told you, but I'm fine," Amy said to her friend.

"I know you are, but if you need a break, let me know. We'll go grab a glass of wine or something."

Amy nodded. "Can we keep this just between us? I would really rather not fill everyone in on my anxiety problems. I've kept it pretty well hidden from you guys for a while."

"I will, but you don't have to hide things like that from us. Have you seen this group of stone cold weirdos that you hang out with?" Penny asked. Then she added, "See, here comes one of our best friends in the world proudly walking with her husband who has to be the shortest Stormtrooper I've ever seen."

"Howard, we said Star Trek today," Sheldon yelled as soon as he saw the engineer walking in. "Good God, man. You've actually been to space and you couldn't get it right."

"I don't care. I look good," Howard responded.

"Yeah, you do," Bernadette told him.

"See?" Penny said with a laugh. Amy couldn't help but smile back.

Bernadette, Penny, and Amy went to go watch Bernadette's New Girl panel. Amy hadn't seen any of it until they decided to go together, but she found it cute. The panel was much like the others that Amy had been to. They all seemed to have the same format. She saw some clips from new season and then they brought the actors out on stage. Amy missed Sheldon's excitement, but she did like that she had a much better idea of the content of the panel.

When it was over, the girls didn't have much time to grab lunch. They found some sandwiches and ran to wait in line for Amy's panel. It was easily the thing Amy had been looking forward to the most over the whole weekend. That's why she wanted to cry when she saw how long the line was. After being at a few of these things, Amy was starting to get a feel about whether or not they would be able to get in.

They couldn't even see the end of the line, but they decided to walk down it anyway. When they were about half way down, they heard, "Finally. There you guys are."

Sheldon, Stuart and Raj were standing in the line. The girls stopped walking. "What's going on? Are you seeing this one?" Amy asked.

Sheldon sighed. "You didn't read your itinerary for today. Because of the high popularity level combined with the close time crunch, you were unlikely to be able to see this panel unless you had someone wait in line for you. Here we are." Then Sheldon turned to the people behind them. "They aren't cutting. We're leaving and they are taking our spot." The people behind them just shrugged.

Before they left, Sheldon reached down and squeezed Amy's hand. "Thanks, Sheldon," Amy said before turning to her friends.

"This is the cancer one, right?" Penny said. She hadn't read the book like Amy and Bernadette had.

"Yeah," Amy told her.

"This is gonna be depressing," Penny said as she sat on the ground.

"I thought that too. It's sad, but it's also really good," Bernadette told her. "You'll like the movie if we go see it."

Because the guys had done most of the waiting for them, they got into the hall relatively quickly. The trailer and the cast and the author were all very similar to the other panels, but this one Amy was beyond focused on. She felt like Sheldon during one of his superhero panels. She cheered and laughed and cried along with everyone else. Penny looked a little bored, but even that didn't bother Amy.

"That was easily the most fun I've had since I've been here," Amy said as they left.

Penny disagreed, but decided to stay quiet on the matter. Instead, she said, "We've got about an hour until we need to meet up with the guys. Do you guys want to go get a drink?"

"That's fine with me as long as you don't mind being seen with a woman in a Star Trek dress," Amy said.

"Sweetie, you look cute. You could dress like that at home, and I wouldn't care," Penny said with a smile. Then she put her arm through Amy's and they walked back through the expo hall to go back to the hotel. Amy was sure it was Penny's version of holding her hand, but she appreciated the effort. Especially, since she did the same thing to Bernadette on her other side.
