Sheldon and Leonard enter to the building, Sheldon is carrying grocery bags and they both are chatting excitedly.
- "Thanks Leonard for driving me to work this week, and to the comics store, and to the supermarket..."
- "Yes buddy, don´t worry" Leonard interrupts him "It was fun, just like the old days, but it's good that Amy is back to her normal schedule." Sheldon nods
- "Yes, the poor girl has been exhausted for weeks, but her research has been very successful, it´s very possible she wins the Gruber Neuroscience Prize"
- "I know, everyone is talking about that at the university, I´m sure she will win, she deserve it, she works very hard for it".
- "I´m sure she will win, it was only a matter of time before they realized the great she is".

Sheldon was so proud of her, she always fascinated him, but this last two months were incredible, her ideas about the nervous system perplex him, and that´s something that nobody did before, it´s been hard, they hardly saw each other in weeks, she works all night in the lab and sleeps during his work hours, she discovers that is more functional at night, like a cute owl. He smiles just to think of her, it was more difficult be without her that he thought at first, he hardly sleeps in that empty bed for weeks, and he ate every night at Leonard and Penny not because he didn´t want to cook, as the guys think, it was because he can´t be at the apartment without her walking around and not hearing her laugh. Suddenly Leonard interrupts his thoughts

- "So what's your big plan for tonight?" he raises his eyebrows and winks at him.

- "Your simplicity will never cease to amaze me, I have prepared a great night for Amy, to start a great dinner with her favorite meal, I´ll decorate the apartment with candles and music and her favourite flowers" Sheldon ends with a big smile.

- "Sounds perfect, I'm happy for you, Amy is going to love it and you two deserve a great night"

- We'll miss you tonight, Howard and I are going to play classic video games and we'll order pizza, he'll bring Halley because Penny and Bernadette go out tonight, so we can stay late", his smile proudly

- "And koothrappali will not join you?"

- "No, don´t tell to anyone but he has a date tonight"

- "So why you told me?, if it's a secret you know that I don´t want to be involved"

- "It´s ok Sheldon, no one is going to ask you about koothrappali"

- "Let´s hope so, because I´m not going to lie for you", he says, walking to his door.

Leonard rolls his eyes and open his door, "Have fun with Amy tonight", he says before close the door.
- "I will", Sheldon close the door behind him with a smile, no one can ruin it, will be perfect, he leaves the bags at the kitchen island and start to prepare the big night.

Bernadette and Penny enter at the pub, they both look really pretty with colorful dresses and nice makeup, a table of college students turned to look at them, and this made them both smile and blush.

- "It has been a lot time since the last girls night" Penny says, sitting at a table and looking around.

- "I know, since I had Halley it´s hard to have time for myself, I hope she is ok with the boys" she looks worried and looks at her phone to check messages.

- "Hey, not sad faces" Penny toke her phone and put in her purse, "Tonight we are going to have fun, let´s order a few shots to start crazy", She stands up when suddenly sees a familiar face at the bar. "Is that Raj at the bar?"

Bernadette sneaks up to look and bends down quickly, "that's him" she says very excited, "What is he doing here? I thought he´ll be with the guys at your house"

- "No, no, Leonard told me that he had a date tonight"

- "That's weird, why didn´t tell Howard?" The both looks at him at the bar, he is ordering a cocktail and flirting with the waitress.

- "You know, maybe we should leave and give him privacy for his date" Penny whispers to Bernadette and she nods her head "Yeah, maybe"

Raj has a big pink cocktail and sits at a table in the other part of the bar, he looks so handsome, with a blue jacket and tight jeans, he looks so different that normally, more confident and happy.

- We are gonna stay, right? "Penny asks without taking the look from Raj

- "Are you kidding? Of course, this is better than the original plan", Bernadette takes the menu and hidden behind it, she looks at Penny and arches her eyebrows, "If we're going to do it, We'll do it in my way ". Penny nods and hides behind another menu.

- "Do you think we know her? maybe it´s from the university, so he didn´t tell Howard so he can´t make fun of him".

- "I bet it's from the gym, he's going to pilates a lot lately".

Then a very attractive boy approaches to Raj and they start to talk. He is a little higher than Raj, brown hair and fair skin, they can´t appreciate very well but seems that he has green eyes, he has curly but brushed hair and a shiny denture, he looks very attractive and the black suit that wears fitted him perfectly, he smiles to Raj and give him a hug before sitting at the table with him.

- "Who is this guy? You know him?" Penny asks to Bernadette intrigued.

- "No, maybe it´s someone from work, Is he handsome, right?"

Raj leans over him and pulls softly hair away from his mystery boy, he gets up and walks over to the bar to order two more coctels cocktails.

A blow from back moves Penny from her chair and throws her glass that´s brokes on the floor, Bernadette hides under her menu and looks if Raj is looking at them, luckily he has not noticed and he is still talking to the waitress.
- "What the hell?", Penny looks behind her and she rolled her eyes when she found who is there.

Sheldon has prepared a big feast for Amy, there are candles lit throughout the apartment, a big colorful branch of flowers on the table and soft jazz sounds in the background. The apartment looks clean and tidy, there´s a new tablecloth and the napkins are swan-shaped, in the oven is a baked salmon, the favourite of Amy, and a big plate with different types of cheese and grapes and a blueberry cake rest on the table.

Even he is ready, he wears a pretty nice shirt, that blue one that highlights his eyes and Amy loves so much, he has a little more of talcum than usual and his hair is perfectly combed. he looks at his pocket watch, is past 9, normally Amy will be here for that time. He checks is phone for new messages but is empty, suddely the door opens and appears Amy.

She is clearly exhausted, she has large dark circles, disheveled hair and she almost can´t stand on her feet, "Hello Sheldon", she says in a hoarse and tired voice, she leaves her work bag on the floor and sits on the sofa, unaware of her surroundings.
- "Amy, are you ok?", he approaches to her and softly give her a kiss on her cheek, as he sees Sheldon, she is aware of his outfit, she looks around and opens her eyes wide, "What is all this?" She says with a big smile.

- "I just want to do something nice for you, it´s the first night we can dinner together since a month ago, he walks around a show her everything he has prepared for her, the dinner, music, wine and a final surprise.
-" Aw, Sheldon this is so sweet!, I can´t believe you made all this for me". She stands up, but her feet fail and she almost falls.

- "Amy you are exhausted, when was the last time you sleep?" he grabs her for her waist and gently sits her on the couch.

- "I don´t know, since Monday?"

- "Is Friday!, ok, I´m going to prepare you a hot bath and picks up all this, we can eat it on the morning, we can call it a special brunch of Saturday".

- "What? No, no, no, you made all of this and I want to thankful you, this is wonderful, I can do it" but before she can move he gets up quickly and in a jump goes to the bathroom, "no arguments", he shouts from the bathroom while listening the water.

After twenty minutes Amy comes to the living room with a cute pink nightgown and her hair wet, although her face is clearly exhausted she had red cheeks from the hot bath, Sheldon is finishing to package the food, he approaches her gently and kisses her on the lips, she lets out a small sigh and hugs him, "Thanks so much for all this, I´m sorry for ruining it"

- "What?, No please, let me take care of you, you always do it for me".

He guides her to the bedroom, he lays her down on the bed, when she is lying and covered, he sits next to her and strokes her face brushing her hair gently.

- "I missed you so much, " she says, looking at him and closing her eyes

- "Not more than me" Sheldon kisses her cheek

- "You didn´t tell me what was the surprise?" she says with her eyes still closed

- "Don´t worry that can wait for tomorrow, " he says, looking at Amy, that falls into a deep sleep.

Sheldon leaves the room quietly and close the door, he pulls out a small velvet box from his pocket, he looks at it and stores it in a box on the shelf next to Gollum statue.

- "It looks like we'll have to wait again friend".
