I don't own the Big Bang Theory. And if I did, I wouldn't admit it. Not with how bad the new season is. Thank goodness for Howard. He's the only saving grace as far as I'm concerned.
He leaned against a Dum-Dum tree and tried to catch his breath. He clutched at his butterscotch coated chest. He could feel the chocolate syrup pounding through his twizzler veins. His pixi-stix legs felt like froot-rollups. He was shaking in his large red shoes. He ran a hand through his rainbow hair nervously. He was almost sure he was safe.
He heard a low rumbling sound and peered around the tree in time to see a dozen gummy bears thunder past in fear. He looked past them and squeaked in alarm. He turned to run but only got a few yards before a weight hit his back. He landed in a puddle of caramel, his big red nose bumping into a pop rock sharply.
He rolled over and looked up in horror. Hazel eyes stared down at him with desire. He squirmed as a pink tongue darted out and licked his cheek. He whimpered as she moaned happily. "I loooooovvvvve peppermint!"
Sheldon sat up, wide awake. His pulse pounded and sweat broke out on his upper lip. He shoved back the blanket and stumbled from the bed. He raced through the apartment, past his startled friends on the couch. He crossed the hall and beat on Penny's door. It took two separate rounds of knocking before he heard her moving around inside.
Penny opened it angrily and drew back her fist. "It's 1 am, Sheldon! What do you want?!"
He pointed a finger at her accusingly. "The next time you pin me to the floor, you keep your tongue to yourself!" He turned and pushed past his slack-jawed friends.
After a moment Leonard turned to a very stunned Penny. "Um, wanna catch me up?"
Penny rolled her eyes and shut her door. She walked back to her bedroom and slipped under the covers. Just before she drifted off, she licked her lips. They tasted like peppermint.
