Disclaimer: Neither the Big Bang Theory nor Sheldon Cooper are mine. I dearly wish they were, but sadly I'm too poor.
Summary: A series of drabbles concerning what the boys saw.
Sheldon was perturbed and preoccupied.
Perturbed because earlier that week, Leonard had approached him and asked ‘what was up’ with him and Penny. The ludicrous implication of the statement forced Sheldon to conclude it was ‘sarcasm’ and he responded in kind. However, the serious expression that remained on Leonard’s face following Sheldon’s heartfelt chuckle indicated that it was not, in fact, any form of sarcasm, but rather his roommate was quite serious. He then decided that Leonard was paranoid and seeing things, so he had deigned not to respond.
Instead, he decided to rewatch the movie Penny had brought over the previous day. She had made some interesting comments concerning the personal lives of the actors off-screen and he wanted to see how it influenced their overall performance.
The following day, when Raj asked him the same question, he chuckled again and inquired whether or not he had been speaking to Leonard. After seeing Raj’s confused expression, Sheldon told him he was quite delusional and needed to get a CAT scan. Not giving it any more though, he had returned to a very interesting article in Physics Quarterly on Guage-gravity duality. There was a certain familiarity about the article, almost as though he had read it previously but obviously he hadn’t. Otherwise he would have picked up on the glaring flaws in the author’s theory the first time around.
The final straw came when Wolowitz waltzed in and asked whether or not he had found Penny’s ticklish spot. Sheldon had a few choice words for the shorter man, leaving him speechless and wide eyed before asking him to leave.
Sheldon still didn’t understand the strange expression on Howard’s face when he asked him on the way out what had happened to his nose.
Yes, Sheldon was perturbed but he was also preoccupied.
He was preoccupied by the blonde girl that had fallen asleep on his lap during a Firefly marathon. As he shifted his position to one more comfortable, she turned over and looked up at him.
“Hey,” she whispered sleepily.
“I’m sorry, I did not mean to wake you with my movements,” he responded. Penny sat up and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes.
“It’s ok,” she replied. “I should get back to my apartment anyways.”
Nodding in agreement, Sheldon watched as she stood up. He watched as she stretched and as the little tank top she wore rode up, exposing her midsection. He watched as she smiled down at him and he felt himself smile back.
Then he watched as she bent down placed a gentle kiss on his lips.
He also watched, completely speechless, as she quickly rushed out the door.
