The Alternate Dimension

F I V E

"So, let me get this straight...you've been avoiding Sheldon?" Howard asks Amy who was currently shifting for a comfortable position while seated at Sheldon's spot.

"Not is she only avoiding Sheldon, but she keeps on coming over to crash at night. One time, I was too startled I thought my heart would drop." Leonard complains which makes Amy glare at him.

Everyone is at Leonard and Penny's apartment for dinner that night and they were currently amused at how Amy keeps on ignoring her husband.

"You know, you should've done that a long time ago." Penny teases Amy.

"It still baffles me that Sheldon lets you sit in his spot." Raj points out.

"That's the only good thing that came out of this pregnancy." Everyone looks at her weirdly "I mean, I love Sheldon but he's driving me crazy."

"Oh really? Tell me more..." Penny says laughing.

"Very funny." Amy rolls her eyes. "He's insufferable. He always says that he has this profound sense of creation while touching my protruding stomach. He's worse than when we did that experiment on combining our skin cells into functioning brain cells. I mean look at me! I'm literally incubating a couple of little Sheldons and its either flirting with me or treating me like I'm porcelain"

Everyone looks at Amy like she's lost it. "But aren't you the one complaining before that he wasn't paying attention to you? Why are you singing a different tune now?" Bernadette asks.

"Maybe she's hiding from him because Sheldon is deranged. Well, that's his norm." Howard chimes in.

Amy glares at Howard "Hey! That's my husband you're talking about. The man I love, the father of my unborn children, and someone who I've been avoiding these past weeks."

"Amy?" Sheldon suddenly goes into the apartment and Amy hurries to hide behind the couch to everyone's surprise. "Oh, hello. Have you seen Amy? I was calling her phone, but she isn't answering. The lab says she wasn't in for the day. What if she fainted again?"

"Have you looked in your apartment? Maybe she's there." Penny says.

"I haven't!" Sheldon hurriedly crosses over to 4B to look for Amy.

Meanwhile, Amy rushes out from her hiding place. A little too rushed that she staggers sideways which panics everyone. She leans on the sofa and proceeds to sit on Sheldon's spot.

"I don't understand the need to hide from your husband Amy. Why can't you just be grateful that he's busy being devoted to you." Leonard then whispers "...at least his attention isn't with us anymore."

"Yeah, should you be running around like that? You're approaching your last trimester. You should be resting" Raj says worriedly.

Amy gives up and leans back into the couch "Why are you all treating me like glass? You weren't like this when Bernadette or Penny was pregnant."

Bernadette snorts "You should've seen Raj when I was pregnant"

"The point is...we just didn't want to hear Sheldon nagging." Raj says.

"Oh, there you are. You should've called me if you're going anywhere. What is wrong with you Amy?" Sheldon goes in and sits beside Amy. He looks at his friends who are watching them closely. "What?"

"Okay, let me just put this out there.... you're letting Amy sit on your spot." Howard says.

"Howard..." Bernadette warns him.

Sheldon just shakes his head at him "Amy IS pregnant." He says matter of factly.

"If I only knew he would be like that I would've let him knock you up years ago." Penny winks at Leonard.
