Chapter 42 - Change of Scenery

The hospital had a wheelchair van, so Penny and Leonard were driven to the visiting officers quarters Saturday after lunch to pack up their clothes from Leonard's room and check out. The van driver told them he would come back at 5 PM, or earlier if they called, so they were left just over 4 hours to get their stuff together. Penny actually had everything packed up in less than an hour, while Leonard laid helplessly on the bed watching, Penny stopping every so often to kiss him. Leonard was actually a lot better, he could use his left arm, but it was just weak, his ribs leg and hip where mostly healed, but based on the injuries and all the time he was in bed, he couldn't support almost any weight on his left leg, so he couldn't walk, that was the purpose for the planned physical therapy. Penny worked quickly, so no sooner that she finished, she crawled on the bed with him, again kissing him, which soon turned, for her, into a make out session with her husband.

Being alone with him, knowing you two were going to be alone for several hours, the locked door and the normal bed, just added fuel to both their passion. They both were hungry for each other, both craving the intimacy they had been denied for months and both of them seemed to understand each others needs. They had always been able to comfort each other and this was more comfort than sex, it was bringing back something they took for granted before, it was a step back to their normal lives they both craved. It wasn't long before the kisses turned to touching as both of them slipped their hands under the hospital scrubs shirts they wore, gently caressing their mate.

Penny was the one that took it up a notch, she broke away from kissing him, then leaned up looking into his eyes for assurance, seeing him lustfully looking at her. She pulled off her shirt and her bra off a moment later, then helped him off with his shirt before resuming their kissing, now both of their bare chests rubbing against each other while their lips and tongues ravished each others mouth. They kissed for a long time, finally ending up with Penny kissing Leonard's face neck chest nipples, bellybutton, finally slipping her hand under the waistband of his pants.

"Penny." He whispered.

"I want to Honey, just don't let me hurt you okay." Leonard submissively nodded, while Penny slipped his pants off. Kissing his aroused manhood then taking him into her mouth, it was something she really wanted to do, please him, make him feel good, it made her feel good, and after it was over she pulled herself up to lay next to him with her head on his shoulder. "That was okay wasn't it. I didn't hurt you."

Leonard nodded, "You didn't have to do that, but it was more than okay, believe me it didn't hurt…..it was the complete opposite of hurting."

Penny smiled, "Good." as she pulled the sheet over them and nuzzled closer to him.

Leonard rubbed her back, which got a content sigh from her, then put little kisses on her head that she couldn't ignore. She moved up and started to kiss him again, as he took her breast in his hand, gently rubbing his thumb across her hard nipple, making her first gasp then moan. Leonard's left arm and hand worked, they were just weak not useless, but with both hands, one massaging her breast, his other hand slipped down the waistband of her pants, under her panties, resting on her bare cheek and began to massage that too, getting even more moans from her. Penny's moans also had another effect, not only did they express her state of arousal, they were a source of arousal for Leonard, who was recovering quite quickly from Penny's previous pleasuring. He now wanted to pleasure her and he thought he knew just the way.

Leonard removed his hand from Penny breast, getting a disappointing groan from her, then with both hands pushed down on her pants. Penny wasn't sure what he was doing, but she was basically putty in his hands right now, so she helped remove her pants and panties for him. She then gave him a little lustful smile, "Now what Honey?"

"I think I'm ready again." He chuckled.

"Okay Honey." Penny removed the sheet from them and started to move her head down to his crotch, when she heard him whisper 'No Penny', which made her come back up to look at him. Staring into his eyes made it become clear to her what he wanted. "Sweetie, we can't do that, that will hurt you."

"Not if you don't put pressure on my hips by sitting on me."

Penny stared at him for a minute, she actually wanted this, but she was scared she would hurt him. "Honey we can't."

Leonard sighed, "Maybe you are right, it was a wild idea, we don't even have any protection."

Penny shook her head, "Don't worry about protection, I just don't want to hurt you."

Leonard smiled, "If it hurts, I promise to tell you, but I think if you carry your weight on your knees it won't hurt."

Penny was torn, he made sense and she could tell he wanted to do it, she did too. "Okay, but promise if it hurts you tell me immediately, no kidding Leonard, you promise."

"Okay, I promise."

Penny carefully got over him, he was definitely ready for her, and she slowly lowered herself over him until her folds were against his manhood. She then started to kiss his eager lips while rubbing herself on him gently, she wasn't really prepared for how good it felt and she moaned loudly into his mouth. She couldn't take this for long, the need for him to be in her, now her strongest desire, so she stopped and reached down to position him at the door of her womanhood. This she wasn't prepared for either, the extreme pleasure she felt as she slowing went down on him, made her stop kissing him, burying her head into his shoulder, "Oh God", coming involuntarily from her mouth. She slowly lowered herself to get him deeper inside of her, each second, shivers and tremors flowing through her body the more he filled her up until he completely occupied her whole being. She stayed there trying to catch her breath, slowly realizing that Leonard was rubbing her back and kissing her neck, making everything even more arousing to her, until finally she felt strong enough to move on him slowly. She would never know if it was the slow deliberate movement of her husband in her or that she was just wanting him so bad, but the end came quickly as ecstasy took over her body and she lost all feeling of the world around her, finally only able to bury herself into Leonard's shoulder, his touch the only thing that could penetrate her mind.

Penny stayed like that for a little while, her hips off of his, her weight held up by being on her knees, but her chest resting on his, her head on his shoulder, while she put little kisses on his neck that was close to her mouth. She didn't want to move and she stayed like that for a long while, until she realized Leonard still filled her up. "Honey, didn't you…..you know."

Leonard smiled at her, "You know I always last longer the second time, I haven't changed Honey."

"I know, I'm sorry. I just thought…..never mind."

Leonard chuckled, "The first surprise you gave me, yes. But this time, I think a certain wife was needing it more than me."

Penny buried her head in his shoulder, moaning, "Oh God." Then when she lifted her head again, her cheeks were blushing. "I love you Leonard."

"I adore you Penny." he loved how her smile widened on her face.

The thought of Bernadette and her baby suddenly came to Penny's mind, it was crazy but she wanted him to plant his seed in her, after all that had happened, she really wanted it right now. Leonard saw the smile turn into concentration, as she scrunched up her face like she always did when she was seriously thinking. "What are you thinking so hard about." he teased.

"Leonard did you know Bernadette is pregnant?"

"No, that's great. I bet Howard is thrilled." he watched Penny nod, then stop to look at him, staring into his eyes.

"Penny were you thinking…..you're not serious are you?" he was now staring at her too.

"I'm not saying we seriously try, but I don't want to be so careful either. If it happens it happens."

"That is why you don't care if we have protection. I thought maybe you had a morning after pill or something, I never guessed…"

"Is it such a bad idea. You want a family don't you?" she asked.

"Yes of course, but what about acting. I don't want you sitting at home with children wondering how your life would have been."

Penny started to feel him get soft in her, "Leonard, I think I want this."

"If after everything is back to normal, and you want to do this, Okay. But I don't want us to make a mistake and besides we're newly weds, we still have to go on our honeymoon." He smiled trying the lighten the serious mood now between them.

"Okay." she said, sadness in her voice.

"Honey, I promise I will not do this again, the biggest danger I'll take from now on is driving to work. General Turner has already told me I was too valuable to the program anymore to risk in testing, so no more danger for me." He looked into her eyes and smiled, again, "We have time now, we can have a family, just not now, Okay?"

A little smile formed on her face, "Okay."

They looked at each other for a few minutes and shared a couple of kisses until Penny got a sly smile on her face. "I think I will give little Lenny one more go."

"Honey you don't have to do that."

"Sweetie, it is not going to be like the first time." She giggled and rotated 180 degrees, her knees straddling his head, while she started to kiss his manhood again, getting immediate results.

Leonard smiled at his view, "Okay." and pulled her hips down towards him.

It was four when they woke up from falling asleep after their little romp, Penny laying on his right side as he had his arm around her, both still nude under the covers. "Sweetie are feeling okay?"

"Yeah, really relaxed, I wish we could just stay here." Leonard felt good being away from the hospital.

"I know it seems just so…normal." she smiled at him, thinking that 'normal' sounded so good to her right now. "Do you want to take a shower?"

"Yeah, I would, I can stand on one leg, if you help me, for a few minutes."

Penny helped Leonard take a quick shower, another normal activity, then helped him get dressed so they were ready downstairs when the van showed up at 5 PM. It had been sort of a normal day for them, it made them both happy and they couldn't help just smiling at each other the whole way back to the hospital.

Sunday they took it easy and bascially rested, they would be getting up early on Monday to catch the plane which would leave at 8 AM sharp. They ate lunch and dinner in the cafeteria and just talked about the trip, they were taking Monday, all that day, them both being excited about the trip, the new location and being near Penny's family. When they were woke up on Monday morning they quickly got ready and were on the plane with time to spare. It was only an hour flight, but it was a major step for Leonard, Penny actually felt he was now out of danger and just had to finish healing, she didn't even realize she was healing too.

Nothing is perfect, and Leonard's movement to the new hospital, started go downhill when he was rolled to his bed in the new hospital. Leonard and Penny couldn't help staring at each other as Leonard was helped into his bed by the Air Force orderly. They had put Leonard in a open ward, with 7 other beds, 4 of them occupied, and what was especially noticed by both of them was that there was nowhere there for Penny. As Leonard looked at the disturbed look on Penny's face and around at the ward, he began to believe he had just made the one of the worse decisions of this life.
