Hi again!

I couldn't help myself and I wrote another story! And I did some fanart related, of course!

You can find my drawings and fanart on Instagram/tumblr/FB/Twitter as rgbcn.

This is a 2 chapters story, only one was a little too long *wink wink*. As always, I just wanted to play around with these characters. Let me know your thoughts in the reviews!

A HUGE thanks to TheSilenceKeeper for reading my story and correcting my grammar and other mistakes. *thanks thanks thanks!*

Also to Shamyartzzs (IG) for being my partner in crime about the idea of this one.

Enjoy it!

It was summer, and California was what some people would refer to as 'hell on earth.' The weather was a really hot and humid, making it impossible to stay at home. Outside, it was not better, but there were refreshing options for a perfect day off. And Amy was enjoying this day so much already.

Sheldon was half nude in front of her. She was ogling him. Ogling, yes, there was no another way to say it, because she was enjoying herself so much. She looked at his bare legs and his bare torso and sighed. What a view!

Sheldon was annoyed, frustrated and frowning all the time. The sun was burning his skin, he could feel it, as he was applying sunscreen on it every 5 minutes - it wasn't doing much for him. He was making the calculation. One more minute in this hell and his perfect porcelain skin will be damaged

"Stop doing that Sheldon and come to the water!" Amy was shaking her head, her arms crossed resting on the edge of the swimming pool . He laughed inwardly - she was being so obtuse.

Amy had fought so hard to be here today. Negotiating with Sheldon can be exhausting, but she was already a pro at it. They made an agreement the day before. Amy wanted a swimming pool activity. One hour was the maximum amount of time Sheldon reluctantly agreed to. And Sheldon wanted to go to the zoo, there was a new reformed space in the koala's place he wanted to check. They agreed to do the zoo tour - including the new koala habitat, the monkeys and some other favorite places of theirs. Well, Amy loved the zoo too, so it was easy to agree. She felt it was a total win but she couldn't tell Sheldon about it. Going to a pool with him has been one of her requests for the longest time.

And there they were, spending a hot summer Sunday in the swimming pool. Amy went back to swim a little more, she was not a good swimmer, but she always enjoyed being in the water since Penny reintroduced it to her all those years ago. She didn't go a lot when she was younger, she never felt good with her body, but she really loved water activities. Now she felt better about herself, feeling loved by her handsome boyfriend and being a mature, successful woman with a big career. All of those helped boost her self esteem, not to a 'magazine cover' level, of course. That's why she opted for a modest swimsuit. It was not revealing, with a culotte, but she felt pretty good in it. And she was almost sure Sheldon stole a few glances when she walked into the water alone. She could swear she felt his eyes on her when he thought she was distracted.

She returned to the border after swimming around.

"Come here," she called for him again. "The water is really refreshing!"

"No."

"Pleaaaase," she pleaded, with puppy eyes.

"Amy..." He knew she will not stop.

"Oh come on Sheldon, you promised me!"

"Not technically. I promised you to come to a swimming pool, and here I am. You never specified that I will be joining you in the germ pool where you are right now and-"

"Sheldon!" She cut his speech and glared at him.

"Ugh, alright - but just for a minute." He had to agree, she could be very persuasive. Also, he was using the germ as an old excuse, because Amy already gave him all the specifications of this pool in particular, with all the levels of chlorine and other information she patiently gathered for him. Thoughtful Amy, always prepared. He couldn't argue with her.

He went to the border, not 100% convinced. His phobias already making his brain itch. But he would try. For Amy. And also because he was melting from the heat. There was a side of the pool with steps, he started to go in, and with his legs partially in the water, he sat at the border. Well, this isn't so bad, after all...

"How's the water?" She asked approaching him.

"The temperature is cooler than the weather, it feels...nice." He had to agree.

"See?" She smiled at him. "Get in, it will be better." She moved away inviting him to follow her. She was really enjoying the water. Sheldon looked at her, absently, but he didn't make any move. He diverted the gaze almost immediately, looking at his feet in the water.

Frustrated, Amy left him with his thoughts. She went further into the pool, her back to him, hiding her disappointed face. Why couldn't he give a little more for her? She has always been so patient. With everything. She is not asking for the moon… Amy hoped that maybe, just maybe, he'd like to play with her in the water. It was the first time she was in a pool with her boyfriend! I always forget I'm dating Sheldon Cooper. Why did she expect that he will grab her waist and throw her playfully to the water, or do some water wars, and end up tickling each other, of half drowning the other as a little revenge. You know… casual physical contact. She dreamed to see his torso all wet, and to touch his soaked muscles, just to play a little….uhm, stop thinking about his body Fowler! Maybe I do need to stop reading those romantic novels…

Amy turned to look at him again. He was still sitting there, lost in thought, looking so serious, tense... Maybe he was really uncomfortable in the pool. Maybe she asked for too much? She brushed the hair that was on her face with her fingers, feeling guilty for insisting to go there.

Why? Why was he here? Why did he agree? To a swimming pool! Dear Lord. Amy, always Amy. Amy making him do things he never wanted to do before. Looking at her, he was fascinated by how she was brushing her hair seductively. Like a siren. That Vixen. She was making his day hotter that the weather. Can't she see what she's doing to me?

She chose a little dress for the day - of course, it was too hot for tights, cardigan or any other longer piece of clothing. Even he has to dress with only one t-shirt, no underlayers. She looked lovely in that dress, of course, but he blushed seeing all the skin she was showing. He calculated 37.3% more skin exposed than her normal summer dresses. And then, how she looked in that tight swimsuit… Oh boy. He had to look away from her for him to not be affected, but he couldn't help but to ogle her body when she thought he didn't look at her… and that culotte outlining her bottom… He was lost in it, calculating the equation of the rotated cardioid, what the hem of her suit did with her skin. Oh, how he loved to secretly calculate all her shapes and curves. She was a pure mathematical equation, and he wanted to discover all the variables.

But not now!

Now he was at a public swimming pool! With her! And it was not the time to think about the sweet curves of her body. That was not a good thing to do in public. Ever. She didn't know how much she affected him, right? And it was better that way or she will be teasing him about it. He swore to himself to never have to deal with being… you know… too excited in public. Now was not the moment for his body to betray him.

He was doing a mental recap of the previous day and was consumed with thoughts, that he didn't notice Amy was nearby.

"Sheldon, let's go shower and change." She gave up on the activity.

"Really?" He asked, excited. But his expression changed right away.. "Amy...I'm sorry, this is just not for me," he said, pointing to the pool behind her. And you are not helping Little Lady.

"It's ok," she lied sweetly. It was a white lie anyway. She really had a refreshing time, short, but she managed to swim a little and she had a good view. It was really enough. "Let's go to the zoo, but you're buying me an ice-cream later."

"Ok… I… promise," he almost went speechless. He looked at her in awe while she was exiting the pool. The now wet swimsuit was even tighter in her body, the drops of water cascading from her hair, she titled her head to squeeze it, bending her body to do it. Sheldon felt how his body burned and it wasn't even from the sun. He quickly stood up and went to collect their things. He couldn't look at her anymore, but the image of her in that suit was burned in his mind forever.

They went to the main building. Sheldon in front of Amy all the way. He didn't want her to see him flustered while her image was still present in his eyes. She didn't know how to interpret his behavior, and just thinking that maybe he really was tense from stepping in a pool. Nothing about her of course. Why would that be a problem anyway? He normally ignored her, or at least that's what she thought.

They parted ways and headed to their respective changing rooms, not saying any word. He was still affected by her and she felt guilty for involving him in an uncomfortable activity. They agreed beforehand to meet outside after fifteen minutes to shower and get dressed (that's why they had a meeting plan of the activities the night before). Situations like this are the ones they liked to plan and not decide on the last minute. Well, he wanted to control even the shower duration, but she made him forget about it as their routines were different. He had to agree, as always her logic was the finest.

Sheldon thought he will be faster, but he spent some extra minutes under the shower, trying to compose his thoughts. He even turned the cold water on, trying to rid his body of the extra heat Amy gave him by just being around her curves. And the day just started! But the worse had already past, the swimming pool was the dangerous part. From here on out, he only will have to deal with the little dress. Amy will probably wear a cardigan over it. So he will not be distracted. With his height, he really had a… good view of her. But luckily for him Amy was the portrait of modesty. He should be safe.

Amy had to hurry a little more, washing her hair took more time than Sheldon needed. The shower felt refreshing, and after the time in the pool and the sun on her skin, she felt so good. At least she was not melting at home. Today was a really hot day, the news announced that it was expected to be the hottest of the year. That's why she chose a very short, for her, thin dress she purchased with the girls on one of their shopping getaways. She was not sure of this one - she loved it, the color, the pattern, the fabric, and she felt beautiful in it - but she revealed more cleavage that she was used to. Penny and Bernadette insisted for her to get it. So she did. She didn't think she'll be using it in her whole life! But all her other dresses were thicker, longer and covered her. For today, this was really the perfect one. This morning, they drove directly to the swimming pool so she wore the swimsuit under it, and she prepared her change of underwear and a cardigan for later. Just for modesty. She will wear it later, even being too hot for it. She was used to this, all her life wearing too much layers even in summer. She put it all in the bag before leaving the apartment…

Oh?

What? No way!

Amy searched inside her bag. She rushed to take out all the contents.

Where is….?

"I was sure..." Amy panicked "I put them in here before..." She froze.

She remembered then. She was packing the bag, she had her underwear (panties and bra) and the cardigan in her hands, and she was about to put it inside the bag…

Oh God!

She recalled how Sheldon called her from the kitchen, scared for a spider in the sink - yes, she took care of things like that for him - and oh, what she wouldn't do for this man...

She left the clothes she had in her hand… by the drawers near the bedroom door!

Oh No! She pinched her nose to refrain any disgusting noise coming from her.

She forgot her underwear. And the cardigan.

She closed her eyes and sighed, frustrated. Why didn't she check the bag before leaving? After calming Sheldon from his silly panic attack (spider induced), they were behind schedule, so she just grabbed her bag to leave. Damn

She analyzed the possibilities. She just saw two, and she didn't like either of them.

She could leave her swimsuit underneath her dress, as she did this morning. But now it was all wet. So her dress will be wet too. There weren't any hairdryers in the changing room and no time to try to dry it. Sheldon will be mad at her. She was starting to be late already.

The other option… was just to wear her dress. No panties, no bra, no cardigan. Just the dress.

Oh God! She put her head on her hands. She felt so bad, ashamed and frustrated! This never happened before! She was always prepared! She always had two changes of everything! Why not today? Maybe living with sheldon had made her softer with that? He seemed to be softer in his quirks too, even agreeing to come to a pool! This, years ago would have not happened at all. She imagined his grimacing face at the suggestion in the past, telling her that maybe she needed to be tested for asking him a crazy question.

Think Fowler, think!

Penny. What would Penny do? Go naked of course. She is the adventurous one in the group, that's why she is the cooler… Bernadette? Gah! She'll probably do the same…

Amy remembered a particular girl's night, they were talking about some stupid cosmo article about how to spice up a relationship. All the suggestions were completely crazy for Amy, although there were really sexy ones and salacious, she had to admit. One of them was going to a date just dressed in a dress, no underwear, and tell the date about it, to tease your partner the whole night until going home. Penny and Bernadette were joking about doing it (or maybe they already did), and how Leonard or Howard would not be able to arrive home to… They'd probably go to the car or find a place to hide…

Oh no no no no… She couldn't do that, could she?

Sheldon… how will he react to that? He probably would lecture her about the lack of preparedness. He will be disappointed! Admonishing her for not checking her bag before (even when it was his fault).

Or maybe… if I don't tell him… He doesn't need to know.

"Oh no!" Looking at her watch. She saw that she was already late. Dress it is.

She finished drying herself and she put her dress on, glancing at other women in the changing room. She didn't want others to notice! She looked at herself in a nearby mirror, to adjust her hair quickly. She stopped to look at her body. Well, she looked well, normal, she just needed to be cautious, not to climb stairs, not to sit. She could do it. Oh God. A little spark of excitement started to travel through her body. She felt sexy - maybe Penny was right about the article.

There was no going back, so, resigned she went outside, to meet him.

She exited the changing room feeling brave, sexy and like a bad girl breaking the rules, but when she saw him waiting for her, she blushed and felt her excitement transforming into shame.

He was so cute with his hair still wet. But she couldn't even look at him. Humiliation invading her. All the thoughts trying to mimic the girls' article ideas be dammed. She wasn't that brave!

"You're late," he pointed out with raised eyebrows.

Just for 2 minutes "Sheldon, can we go home?" She ignored the scolding. Yes, home, that was a better option. The sooner, the better so she can be dressed properly.

"Home?" Sheldon looked at her as if she just said geology is a real science. What was this nonsense about? They agreed to go to the zoo, she made him promise to get her an ice cream! He was puzzled. "I don't understand Amy. Why?"

"I… don't feel very well..." She lied.

That puzzled him more. She didn't seem to be experiencing any discomfort. She seemed a little...flustered. But that could be the hot weather, she was exposed to the sun. He knew he was right about all the warning signs of being exposed under sunlight during summer.

"Amy, but our zoo tour…" He pouted - he really wanted to see the koala's new habitat. "We agreed we will go to the zoo…" He looked down, after all the time in the hell that was a swimming pool, he was looking forward to going to the zoo. Why did she want to go home now?

"Sheldon… I..." She was lost, she didn't want to disappoint him, and he really seemed to be excited for the zoo… He went to the pool, even with it not being his ideal activity, he didn't argue with her. He just surrendered to be in a place where he was not comfortable, for her… Ugh. she couldn't do that to him.

"Maybe I just need some air." She smiled timidly and allowed him to go first. He did, extending his hand to take hers. "Let's go."

"Alright. If we hurry we can catch up with the schedule," he said happily, not being aware of anything out of place.

Oh God, this will be long day. Amy sighed and followed him.

Will he notice? Will Amy tell him? Stay tuned to my accounts to see more drawings about this story. I have another one and a Bonus coming up with the second chapter. Any guesses?

Thanks for reading!
