Bernadette was in an incredible mood. The one month wait was over and she had Howard naked and on his back. She fucked him for several hours. She came so many times she lost count and made a note to thank her mother-in-law for the funds to have the procedure done.
Howard stopped her, "Remember, my mother is very ashamed, really for no reason, but she doesn't want any thanks for this, so please Bernie, don't say a word to her. I wasn't supposed to tell you about it in the first place."
"Okay, but I will always think of her in a lot better light from now on. Oh, just to let you know, Amy and I are going to Penny's tonight."
Amy picked her up and saw the cheerful Bernadette, "Why are you so happy Bernadette?"
She let out a sign, "Oh, no reason, just very, very satisfied and calm."
They got to Penny and barged in and both called out to Penny, "Hi!"
She was pulling out the wine glasses, "Hey!"
Bernie was bubbly, "We brought snacks for movie night."
Penny looked up, "Oh great, I don't suppose you also brought napkins, clean bowls, utensils and a roll of toilet paper?"
Bernie raised her second bag, "Right here."
Penny was grinning from ear to ear, "AH! You guys are the best."
Amy walked over to the sofa, "What's with all the clothes?"
"Well, with all the new stuff I bought for work, I needed room in my closet."
"I meant why are they folded, but whatever." She reached down and picked up a slinky red gown, "Ooh, what's this?"
Penny giggled, "That, believe or not, is my prom dress."
Bernie moved over to the sofa, "Wow, you still have it? I just assumed it was balled up in the corner of a barn somewhere."
Penny gave her a disgusted look, "What kind of teenager did you think I was?"
Bernie looked back at her, "Slutty! Amy added, "Easy!"
Penny shook her head, "The word is "Popular!"
Bernadette turned to Amy, "How was your prom? Did you go?"
"No, but I was on cleanup crew."
Penny grimaced, "Aw, that's sad."
"No, it was okay. The DJ let me dance one slow song with my mop before he shut down. Whenever I see a bucket of dirty water, I still hear "Lady in Red" and I get wet."
Bernie added, "My prom was pretty terrible too. I was so excited about my date, but turned out he only asked me because he liked my friend. He spent the whole night talking to her."
Amy bit her lip, "We get it; you had a friend and a date. Stop bragging."
Penny shook her head, "It doesn't matter. Prom is silly anyway."
Bernie took a sip of her wine, "Easy for you to say. You went with the captain of the football team."
Penny shook her head, "Uh, no! I just made out with him a little while his date was puking, heh!"
Bernadette was giggling, "I have an idea. Maybe we can have, like, a prom do-over."
Amy was excited, "That would be so much fun. We could decorate the roof and make the guys wear tuxedoes"
Bernie added, "Get our hair done and slow dance."
Penny tried stopping it, "Guys, trust me, as someone who's been to like, seven proms, it is never as good as you want it to be."
Now Amy was pissed, "You went to sever proms?"
"Yeah, let's see. Four "Under the Seas," two "Enchanted Evenings" and one "Night to Remember" that I cannot remember for the life of me."
Majority ruled and without the guys input, it was decided, they would be having prom night on the roof.
Bernadette was ecstatic; and she couldn't wait.
A couple days later, the guys were huddled in Leonard's apartment along with Penny when Howard popped in, "Hey."
Leonard looked up, "Hey, where's Bernadette?"
He let out a groan, "She and Amy are dress shopping for their prom thing."
Raj hopped up and down, "Oh yeah, I got that Evite; ever since I saw "Pretty in Pink, I've wanted to go to an American prom. But then I saw "Carrie" and I did not wanna go to an American prom. But then I saw "Never Been Kissed" and I'm back on the prom bandwagon. This prom thing has been a real roller coaster."
Howard took his carry out container of food from Leonard, "Bernie's really excited. I mean, I could tell, because her voice got so high the beagle next door started howling."
Raj looked to Sheldon, "Did you go to your prom?"
He shook his head, "No, heh! I had a date with a proper education. Instead of a tuxedo, I dressed myself in good habits. Instead if spiked punch, I enjoyed the intoxicating flavor of knowledge. Instead of dancing in a gym, I shook my booty to the seductive rhythms----"
Penny yelled out, "OKAY, OKAY!
Sheldon whispered to Raj, "---of AP calculus." He gave Penny a dirty stare.
Raj got Penny's attention, "How come you're not shopping?"
Leonard answered for her, "Let me guess, you think the whole idea is lame?"
She scoffed, "Who cares what I think. What do you think?"
He shrugged his shoulders, "To be honest, it's kind of a dream come true to go to even a fake prom with a woman as beautiful as you."
She rolled her eyes, "Ugh, thanks a lot!"
"What?"
"Now I can't blow this off without being a bitch."
Raj cracked a smile, "That sounds like a yyyyyyyes!"
Later that evening Bernie and Howard were sitting in their apartment. He was pouring each of them a glass of white wine and she was checking her e-mails, "Ooh, every single person RSVP'd yes. This is so exciting." Her voice went super high, "Isn't this exciting?" All of a sudden the beagle next door began to howl.
He took a big swig of his wine, "Yep."
"Look, even Stuart's bring a date. I wonder who it is."
"You know exactly who it is. He's gonna bring my mom. Why did you even invite him?"
"Because he's our friend and you two need to get along. Why can't he take your mom? You took her to your prom."
Howard rolled his eyes, "I didn't take her. She was a chaperone."
