Penny woke up feeling refreshed despite the two-hour long nap. She turned and saw Sheldon sitting on the bed next to her, using his laptop. "Good morning," he smiled.
"Hey." She replied sleepily, wondering if her confession was just a dream, because he was so civil.
Sheldon closed his laptop. "Would you like breakfast?"
"Yeah, that would be nice." She replied. "Let's make omelettes!" She dragged him to the kitchen.
Penny and Sheldon were waiting for the omelettes to cook when he pulled Penny by the arm and planted a kiss on her lips. Okay, not so civil after all, Penny thought to herself.
"Woah," she muttered, then kissed him back. "Do you have plans today?"
Sheldon kept her close to him. "No. Do you?"
"No," she sighed, happy and content. "Do you want to like, tell our friends about us?"
Sheldon nodded. "I'd tell everyone in the planet if that's what you wanted,"
"But is that what you want?" Penny replied.
He nodded again. "I want you, Penny. And I want everyone to know so that no one can take you away from me."
Penny put her arms around him and squeezed. "You saying things like that is just... hot." She admitted.
"Thank you...?" Sheldon replied, not knowing what that meant. So he just kissed her again.
Sheldon saw to it that his friends were all settled in the living room before setting the pizza down. "You are probably wondering why I have gathered all of you here tonight," Sheldon said, standing in front of everyone.
"Like hell we are," Howard replied. "We haven't had dinner together in so long!"
Penny smiled and stood next to Sheldon. "Well, we kind of have a huge announcement..."
"Penny and I are..." Sheldon heard a knock on the door. "Oh, dear Lord..."
Everyone stared at the door as if afraid of the person behind it. "Were we expecting someone else...?" Penny asked, but she was all met with shrugs.
"I'll just get it." Penny walked over to the door and opened it slowly. "Amy!"
As soon as everyone heard the name, they all came rushing to the door. "Oh it is Amy!" Howard declared. They all took turns giving Amy a hug, even Sheldon.
"Hey, everyone," Amy greeted after all the hugging. "Looks like I came at the right time, huh?"
Bernadette replied. "Oh you sure did! Come in!"
Penny led her in and let her help herself to the pizza. "So, you did marry Faisal, huh?" Raj asked.
"Ohhhhh..." Amy glanced at the ring on her finger. "No. I haven't married yet. Just... with someone. Faisal... Well, I kind of realized that it wasn't worth it to marry someone I barely know just to keep my funding, so I didn't."
Raj grinned. "Ooooh! Who's the lucky guy?"
Amy blushed. "I'll tell you guys someday. Anyway, how are all of you?" She looked at Penny. "You look amazing on the big screen! I've seen your movies and interviews and you are stunning."
Penny smiled. "Aww, thanks Amy!"
Amy smiled back and fell into conversation with her old friends. Sheldon glanced at Penny and, as soon as everyone was done eating, they stood in front of everyone again. "Ready, sweetie?" Penny whispered. At Sheldon's nod, she started to talk.
"So... Sheldon and I have a huge announcement..." Bernadette curled her fists, eager to hear the news again. "Cut to the chase, Penny!"
Penny smiled. "Oh, alright." She clutched Sheldon's hand. "Sheldon and I are kind of a couple now."
As soon as she finished, her friends were all standing around them, hugging and congratulating them on the news. Penny and Sheldon were smiling so big that their faces were hurting, but they were absolutely happy. Even Amy, who hugged Sheldon and said, "I knew it would happen. You and Penny are meant for each other."
Penny cracked open the bottle of champagne and poured each of them but Sheldon a glass. As they fell back into simple conversation, Penny realized how much she missed being with all of her friends. With Amy back and all of them eating dinner together in the living room of apartment 4A, everything was back to how it all began, and she loved every second of it. She just wished that Leonard was there as well.
Can we talk? :) Penny typed into her phone. She hoped Leonard hadn't changed his number.
AN: Sheldon and Penny are officially a couple! That means more fluff in the next few chapters ;-)
