Fic: He's The One
Penny giggled quietly, as she snuck up behind Leonard, who was frantically writing on his whiteboard.
It was ten in the morning, and Penny had just gotten out of bed, her hair a mess, and her robe messily wrapped around her body. She found Leonard in the living room, his back facing her, writing a series of equations that she didn’t even try to decipher. She had yawned loudly in the hallway, but Leonard was still scribbling lines of letters and numbers. Penny was surprised that he didn’t even hear her, and decided to take advantage of that. Snickering deceivingly, she tiptoed across the room.
Penny looked over Leonard’s shoulder, and held her breath, just to make sure he didn’t hear her. She lifted her hands, grinning widely and shaking from trying to contain her laughter. With one swift move, she pushed Leonard forward and screamed loudly into his ear, “BOO!”
Leonard yelped, throwing his marker into the air and plunging forward into the whiteboard, erasing half of his equations.
Penny doubled over in laughter, as Leonard turned and glared at her.
“What was that for?!” he protested.
Penny laughed even harder. Leonard continued to glare at her, but couldn’t stop a smile from forming across his face. He had a familiar look in his eyes, a look that took Penny only two seconds to figure out.
“Uh oh,” Penny whispered, a huge grin across her face.
She turned and ran across the room, through the hallway, and into Leonard’s bedroom. Leonard ran after her, yelling, and Penny shrieked as he grabbed her from behind and held her tightly. She tried to wrestle out of his grip, jumping around and laughing.
“Let go of me!” Penny screamed through her giggling.
“Not until you find my marker and rewrite my equations!”
Penny managed to slip her hands out of his grasp and tickled Leonard, causing him to leap backwards, giving Penny a chance to escape. She grabbed a pillow off the bed and smacked him with it, but it hardly fazed him. She was going to hit him a second time, but he pulled it out of her hands, threw it across the room, and tackled her again. They both ended up on the bed, Penny’s body pinned down by Leonard’s. He held her hands tightly, not letting her out of his grip again.
Their laughter filled the air. Penny had tears in her eyes from laughing so much, but once she calmed down, she pulled closer into Leonard and kissed him gently on his lips. He let go of her hands and ran his hand through her messy blonde hair. She wrapped her arms around his neck before pulling back and staring passionately into his eyes.
“Did I say ‘good morning’ yet?” Penny smiled sweetly.
"Good morning." And he kissed her back.
