The Only Exception || The Big Bang Theory

"I'm going to hell." Penny said.

"Why? What happened?" Bernadette asked.

Penny and Bernadette had invited Angela to one of their girl's nights. Angela was very unfamiliar to one of these. Never had anything to say except about a show or a movie. She knew if she said something, she was going to ruin this bonding with her first girlfriends. Oh how she was going to hate herself if it was to happen.

Angela sat back in Penny's couch next to Bernadette with such an uncomfortable face. She was being too careful of what her next action will be...or when it was going to happen.

"Then, I told him she didn't love him. He was so sad it broke my heart. I had to tell him! She wasn't going to tell him, so I was. She later texted me that she did love him and never wanted to see me again since I ruined their relationship." Penny took a sip of her wine. "That's the end of my story. Bernadette?"

Bernadette chuckled, "Nah, nothin' to say. It's just that I'm going to be two months in five weeks."

"Aww, hurry up and pop the kid out! I just wanna hug it already!" Penny squealed.

They laughed and Angela just stayed quiet. She was afraid her laugh might sound annoying. "Angela? How's life?" Penny asks, with a comforting smile.

Angela stumbled upon her words, "Um, n-n-nothing. N-nothing at all."

"Are you OK?" Bernadette asked, looking at her.

"No. I mean yes. No." Angela knew she screwed up.

"Angela, are you new to this?" Penny asks.

Angela nodded. She felt like a small child.

"Look, just speak whatever is in your mind. Or what's been bothering you. Or anything really."

Angela cleared her throat, "A baby has three hundred bones in the body at birth."

Penny and Bernadette blinked. It was Bernadette's turn to clear her throat, "Um, that's what you're thinking right now?"

"We were talking about babies, so that was what I was thinking about." Angela answered.

Penny nodded, taking another sip of her wine, "Isn't there another thing on your mind?"

Angela nodded, now feeling part of them since she's actually talking to them. She looked at them seriously since this thought has been bugging her since her trip to San Antonio with Sheldon. She sighed, but nothing really came out of her  mouth. She shook her head, "No, maybe it's just a silly thought." She mumbled.

Penny smiled, thinking her silly thought was of Sheldon. "Well, silly thoughts are good! It's progress!" Penny was trying to support Angela to get her thought out there. She just loves how people confess their liking to their partners. She thinks it's adorable.

"Really? It's progress?" Angela questioned, feeling a lot more better than before.

"Yeah, it is." Bernadette says, her sweet voice illuminating the room.

Angela smiled, tilting her head a bit. "Alright." She sat cross-legged on the couch now, getting comfortable.

"I've been thinking about who this is, but I haven't got an idea. Do you know anybody by the name Amy?"

Bernadette froze, and Penny started to cough and choke on her wine.

Angela looked at the both of them oddly, "I'm guessing yes if that name had an effect on the both of you."
