Do you mind editing your post to include the fic header that's available for copy and paste, in our profile? Just so it's easier to parse what your story is about for potential readers! Thanks.

So sorry! My beta just finished this late last night and I was exhausted trying to finish my to-do list. I'm getting on a plane in a few hours and will have limited to no internet for the next 5 days! Anyway, hope it's better now... :D

[fujiidom]

No problem! Thanks for the quick edit. Safe travels!

Awww! Oh this was adorable. I wish there was a sequel to it or something so I could see what happens next! :D

[ricksilsa]

Thank you! I kind of have a Sheldon POV sequel in mind, but I'm so busy right now I can't make any promises.

This is so sweet!

[ricksilsa]

Thank you! :D

This was so cute! I really liked Sheldon in this. : )

One thing I'm confused about- Penny said she hadn't showered in three days but I thought she'd fallen in the shower the night before? Or did she get along without help for three days until Sheldon started helping her?

[ricksilsa]

Thanks!- I got the impression from the episode that Penny had slipped getting into the shower & so hadn't gotten the chance to actually bathe herself. Assuming that she was already in need of a shower when she tried taking one, the three day time period seemed plausible. So basically her last real shower had been the one she took before she fell. Does that make sense?

[ahria]

Ah, yes, that makes sense. I guess her hair was still dry when Sheldon came in and helped her out of the tub. :)

YAY! I didn't get a chance to read my present until today, and what a present! It was so intimate and sexy, and Sheldon was just as I imagined being firm yet gentle. I am as sad as Penny that soon Leonard will arrive to ruin the closeness. Thank you for this story! Hope you're having the happiest of holidays!

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. Happy Holidays!
