Chapter 2 (Sheldon's POV)

Saturday mornings were always tiresome for me. Sometimes a good episode of Doctor who wasn't enough. Leonard was out with Penny, of course he was. My Skype call with Amy was done hours ago and I have noting to do. Me having nothing to do is odd. Usually I have something to do, any thing to do. I'm just sitting on the couch in my spot while Leonard does god knows what with Penny. He has a girl he loves and so do I.

Amy.

Would it be odd to call her now? Would I seem to clingy? I can't believe that's what I worry about now, approval of some hotsy totsy from Glendale. She wasn't some hotsy totsy though. I loved her. Didn't I? I admitted it to her at prom. I didn't know what I was saying until I heard her say the words

"You said it."

Those words made me think about love logically, as if hearing Amy say them set of a trigger in my brain. I couldn't deny it anymore. I loved her. "Dammit Cooper, call that women." I told myself. I picked up my phone and dialed her number.

" .Ring."

I listened to it ring 5 times before it went to voice mail. Hmm that was weird, she almost always had her phone on her. Unless she's showering. She doesn't usually shower at this time though. Weird how I know that. I call again. Still no answer. Now this was getting weird, I had to get over there. I couldn't call Leonard, god knows what he's doing or where he is. He's probably in the middle of coitus with Penny, cause they're in that type of relationship. Me and Amy aren't. Though she desperately craves it. I was thinking of doing it, right there. My mind stirs back to prom night where both Leonard and Penny mentioned there were mating rituals at the end of prom. It was when I first saw her in that prom dress. Her beauty was thrown at me like a ton of bricks. That's why I panicked, I guess. Maybe it was because with a girl as beautiful as that mating was no longer a ritual. It was a necessity.

After I confessed and told her I was feeling pressured to do all these things, things I didn't know how to do, She said she'd wait for me however long it took. That's probably when I realiz- I shake my head. Why can't I stop thinking about that women. She's a beautiful neuroscientist and that's all she should be to me. Now I can't stop thinking about her.

"God damn Cooper." I tell myself. "Just go over there and see what's wrong." I did it last time Amy was upset about some wedding nonsense with Bernadette and Penny. I get off the couch and walk to my bedroom, if I'm going to her apartment then I need to take the bus, if I'm going to take the bus I need my bus pants. There we go finally a decent train of thought. I but my bus pants on and grab my wind breaker. I get my keys from the bowl and start to walk towards the bus stop. Its a bit chilly but I'm ok. I get on the bus and sit. The bus isn't that busy so I have no one to talk to. Why is my Saturday so uneventful? I wonder how Amy's day is going. She seemed pretty happy on Skype, has her day gotten better? Or worse? Why can't I stop thinking about her? I'm a brilliant physicist, not some hippy dippy with feelings.

The bus comes to a sudden stop and I bounce out of my seat. I look out the window and see Amy's apartment building. I get off dust myself off and walk off the bus. I take a deep breath and enter the building. I take another deep breath and walk into the elevator. I haven't been in one for a long time. Once I get to Amy's floor I quickly walk to her door and knock. Thank the lord she answers.

"Well hello Sheldon, I'm quite happy you came. I have exciting news."

She opens the door wider for me. I walk in.

"Is that why you didn't answer my phone calls?' I ask curiously.

"Yes, I wanted to tell you the good news in person." She smiles at me. How I love that sweet smile. After admiring her for a mere 5 seconds I feel the anger rise up in me.

"So you think that not answering my phone calls automatically means that I'm going to come over here? Who do-" At that moment she stops my rant by slightly putting her finger on my lips. I'm not usually comfortable with this type of physical contact. I much rather have her lips on mine...

"Snap out of it Cooper" I tell myself. But inside my head so she couldn't here. Thank god. She looks at me with confusion but then continues.

"Here just read for your self." She hands me a letter and I browse over it until I read the words

"We would like to honor you with the 2015 Nobel prize." I look up. She's smiling. The jealousy starts to rise up in me. But I try to push it down. She's my girlfriend I have to be happy for her. My jaw drops. "Say something Cooper." I tell myself. My jaw still dropped, she steps closer to me and puts my hand on her shoulder.

"Sheldon are you ok?" She says. Now she looks concerned for my well being.

"Con-Con-Congratulations." I don't know how I found the courage to say congrats.

"Oh thank you Sheldon!" She says. She kisses me quickly on the lips then hugs me. I put my hands around her and rest my chin on her head. Finally she kissed me, after waiting that long. The way I now crave her kisses proves that she really has changed me. I forget that thought and focus on something more important. Did my girlfriend just win a Nobel prize, before me?...
