The way you looked at me.

Chapter 8

Sheldon POV:
I was never drunk. Did Evelyn not know that I don't drink? That is something I shall mention to her once she's sober. As soon as I kissed her, I couldn't help but wonder what got into me. She soon passed out on the couch and I couldn't help but smile. Crap... She was getting to me. She broke my shield of emotions somehow and I'm not sure if I like it. I headed off to my bedroom to get some sleep as well. Tomorrow will be a busy day for the both of us.

The next morning...
As I woke up to an excruciating pain, I realized that I wasn't in Penny's apartment. Oh no, I was in Sheldon's! What did I do? I don't even have a memory of last night. Wait, why is Sheldon staring at me?
"Good morning Dr. Cooper."
"Evelyn, what have I told you about calling me Dr. Cooper?"
"Actually, I don't remember anything that occurred last night."
"Really? Nothing at all?" I shook my head no. "Oh.. Well, that's g-great. It's best if you don't remember anything. You were very irresponsible and I'm disappointed in you. What were you thinking? You are going to go clean yourself up and I'm demanding- " What is he talking about?
"I'm sorry, demanding?! who told you that you could run my life. Last time I checked, you weren't my husband or father."
"Well, you shouldn't lower yourself by drinking so much and getting into people's pants." What did he just say?!
"What. The. Hell! What is your problem Sheldon? Actually you know what? I don't need to know. As a matter of fact, if I'm so irresponsible, then I'll go and you will no longer have to 'take care' of me. Goodbye Dr. Cooper."

Sheldon's POV..
And with that, she was gone. I let her go. The one person who might have been able to change me. She's gone because of me. What killed me the most was that she could never call me by my first name. I searched for Evelyn everywhere and couldn't find her. Was she really out of my life for good? I couldn't allow this, but Evelyn was beginning to just be a memory and nothing more. Hours became days, days became weeks, and weeks became years. I knew, deep down somewhere, that she was gone forever. I gave up hope. I, Sheldon Cooper, gave up trying to look for Evelyn when she was no where to be found. She no longer wants to speak to me, let alone see me. What have I done?

Five years later...

I missed the arrogant man. He drove me off the wall and all but deep down, I believe I truly was being affected by him. His presence began to consume my every thoughts. I haven't seen him in years and now, I am getting ready to go to Howard's wedding. This day would prove if Sheldon and I are meant for each other. Oh, who am I kidding? He's probably got a girlfriend or even wife now. Crying away the thoughts, I bought my train ticket and headed to this wedding. No one knew that I was invited by Howard. Not even Sheldon Cooper.
