CHAPTER 15: The Faisal Recurrence
Amy spent the entire day with her mother. Mrs Fowler bought her a new set of clothes and then decided to watch a movie.
Surprisingly, Amy had not heard of another comment on her relationship with Sheldon from her mother.
After dropping her mother at their old home, Amy decided to drop by The Cheesecake Factory to spend some time with her bestie and to distract herself for a while. She called Bernadette to check if she would like to join them.
"Hello, Bernadette. You up for a girl's night at The Cheesecake Factory? I'm on my way there now!"
"Sorry Amy I can't." her sweet tiny voice was sounding hoarse. "I'm sick."
Oww. "Okay then, maybe next time. Get well soon!"
"Thanks Amy. Bye."
Amy arrived minutes later at The Cheesecake Factory, she spotted Penny at the bar.
"Hi bestie!"
"Ames! What brings you here? Is Sheldon with you?"
"No, I came here by myself. I was wondering if we could have a bestie night out since it will only be just the two of us. Bernadette's sick."
"Oh Amy, I'm sorry, I promised Leonard that we'd spend the night together. We're going out for dinner. Sorry."
Amy was disappointed. Neither of her gal pals we're free. Guess I'm going home early after all.
"Okay bestie, maybe some other time. I'll go now. Bye!"
"You're leaving already? Aren't you going to eat or have a drink?"
"No. I better head home now. Text you later!"
"Okay Ames, take care!"
Amy arrived at her floor, she was struggled to open her because of all the things she was carrying. Surprisingly, the door opened on its own. She was shocked when she saw who and what was inside.
Her entire apartment was dimly lit by candles. There were rose petals all over the floor. There was a dinner for two prepared on her table with two glasses of champagne.
Sheldon was standing by her door, a bouquet of roses in hand.
Amy's heart fluttered. He did this for me? She was out of words.
"Amy, do you like it?" Sheldon met her eyes and handed her the roses.
Amy dropped the bags that she carried on her sides and eagerly took what he offered her. Amy beamed at Sheldon then nodded. Tears were welling up in her eyes.
Sheldon became alarmed when he saw the tears forming in her eyes. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad. Please don't cry."
Amy chuckled at his words, she finally spoke. "No Sheldon. These are happy tears." she scooted closer to him, and wrapped her arms around his waist. "Thank you. You don't know how happy I am right now."
Sheldon let out a sigh of relief. He awkwardly wrapped his arms around her and patted her back. I'm still getting used to this. It isn't so bad. He smiled as an idea came up to him.
He released his hold of her, placed his hands on her shoulders and leaned down and planted a soft kiss on her lips. It started out that way, but then it became a very passionate one, and both were shocked and breathless after they pulled away.
"Sheldon, I didn't know you knew how to do that."
"Me, too." he replied honestly. "I really do excel at everything."
Amy let out laugh and Sheldon did his breathy laugh too.
"Should we eat now? We're way behind schedule."
There he goes again. Amy mentally shook her head.
After sharing the meal that Sheldon prepared, Amy decided that they should go watch a movie. Amy had a copy of the first Spiderman film, so it was what she chose.
Sheldon has his arm draped over her shoulder, while Amy placed her head on Sheldon chest. We're really becoming more like a normal couple now.
She smiled as she heard the words Sheldon used to prevent her from leaving him.
"When I look in your eyes, and you're looking back in mine, everything feels not quite normal because I feel stronger and weaker at the same time. I feel excited, and at the same time terrified. The truth is I don't know what I feel. Except, I know what kind of man I want to be."
After finishing the movie, Amy drove Sheldon to his apartment.
As he opened the door of car, he paused.
"Sheldon? Is there something wrong?"
Sheldon shrugged. "No, I just forgot something."
He then faced her and gave her a kiss on the lips.
"Good night, Amy."
Amy blushed; she was taken aback by his sudden move. "Uh… G…g…good night!"
Amy was now lying in bed, thinking about the events that transpired during the night.
She liked how her relationship with Sheldon was evolving, and she could not ask for more.
Just then her phone started ringing; the number of the caller was unregistered.
"Hello?"
"Ms Fowler? Amy Farrah Fowler?" it was a man's voice.
"Yes, this is Amy speaking."
"Good evening Miss. Do you happen to know a man named Faisal Phunsuk?"
Huh? What happened? "Yes, he's my… friend. Has something happened to him?"
"We've brought him to the hospital. He was hit by a car."
WHAT!? Oh no. Please let him be okay. "Where? Give me the address and I'll be on my way."
A/N: There, Faisal is sort-of back :) So, what do you think of this chapter? :P
