Author's note: The series resets with this episode.
One of my readers requested adding pictures of the new characters, but this is not allowed by Literotica. When a new character is introduced, I will put in parenthesis the character's real name so you can look them up on the internet.
A couple days passed and things were back to normal. They were all eating at the Cheesecake Factory. Sheldon and Raj were arguing and Sheldon called Penny over to their table.
"What can I do for you Sheldon?"
"Oh nothing Penny, I just wanted to make Raj stop talking."
She turned and saw Bernadette, "Oh, Howard, heads up. Your ex-girlfriend just came in for her shift." She walked away.
Leonard looked to Howard, "When was the last time you saw her?"
"Not since we broke up, wow. How am I going to play this? Sophisticated and relaxed, friendly, noncommittal, cold and distant?" Just then Bernadette turned and headed towards their tables. Howard jumped off his chair and ducked under the table to hide from her.
She walked past and cheerfully exclaimed, "Hi guys!"
They replied, "Hello!"
Sheldon looked under the table, "I see you decided to go with pathetic and frightened."
Raj chuckled, "One of his best moves!"
They left and Howard headed home. He was exceptionally horny and slipped into his satin P.J.'s and turned down the lights and turned on some mood music. He began fantasizing about Katee Sackhoff. He started stroking his cock.
Just then he mother yelled from downstairs, "Howard, have you seen my girdle?"
He yelled back, "No, Ma! Maybe it committed suicide! Leave me alone!" He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, "Now, where were we?" He started stroking his cock again thinking about sex and suddenly Bernadette popped into his head.
"I believe you were about to rip off my uniform with your teeth."
He was stunned, "Bernadette, what are you doing here?"
She smirked, "Well, if I had to guess, I'd say I'm here because you saw me this earlier this evening and you're still hung up on me."
"No, I'm not!"
Katee Sackhoff replied, "Clearly you are. Otherwise, based on past experience, we'd be done by now."
He sat up, his cock began flaccid, "Okay, I'm a little confused here."
Suddenly George Takei popped in, "Oh myyyyy, can I help?"
Howard was befuddled, "Not that kind of confused."
Bernadette rebuffed, "What's George Takei doing here?"
Katee chimed in, "Howard, do you have latent homosexual; tendencies?"
He was really flustered now, "Of course not!"
George added, "So you say, yet here I am."
Katee turned to George, "George, let me ask you something. How did you deal with being typecast as a science-fiction icon?"
"It's difficult. You try and stretch as an actor, do Strindberg, O'Neill, but all they want is, "Course laid in, captain."
She threw her hands up, "Tell me about it, its frakking frustrating." They get up and leave together.
Howard sits up, "Wait, Katee, why are you leaving?"
The imaginary Bernadette replies, "She's leaving because you really wanna be with me."
All of a sudden his mother yells out again, "Howard, I found my girdle! It was in the dryer! I think it shrunk! I'm spilling out like the Pillsbury Doughboy here!"
He shook his head, "And with that mental picture, I think we're done for the evening." He fell back into the pillows and went to sleep.
The next day Howard and Leonard are in the cafeteria and Leonard presses Howard to find out why they broke up, but he won't tell.
That evening Howard goes to see Penny. He knows she won't open the door if she knows it's him. He knocks on the door three times, but has a recording of Sheldon's voice calling out, "Penny, Penny, Penny!"
She opened the door to find Howard there, "What do you want Howard?"
"I just have a question. Uh, does Bernadette ever talk about me?"
"Yeah, absolutely."
"She does?"
"Yeah, sure, just yesterday, she asked, "Why is Howard hiding under the table?"
He smiles, "Oh, she saw that, huh?"
"Oh, no, not at first. Right after I pointed it out though."
"Let me ask you something else. Is she seeing anybody?"
"Uh, not that I know of. While we're on the subject, why did you guys break up, anyway?"
"Oh, I'd rather not say, heh."
"Howard, if you want my help, I've gotta know what happened."
"It's embarrassing!"
"Yeah, that's what I'm counting on, now spill!"
"Okay, well, you know..... "World of Warcraft"?
"The online game, sure."
"Well, did you know that the characters in the game can have sex with each other?"
She rolled her head, "Oh God, I think I see where this is going."
"Her name was Glissinda the Troll. Bernadette walked in on me while we were doing the cyber-nasty under the Bridge of Souls."
She cracks up, "Oh, you're right, that is so embarrassing."
"Would you talk to her?"
Again Penny laughs, "Bernadette or the troll?"
"Bernadette, she was so mad at me, she wouldn't listen to my side of the story."
"Well, what was your side?"
"For all we know, Glissinda the Troll wasn't even a real woman. She could've been a 50-year-old truck driver from New Jersey."
"Really? And that didn't make her feel better?"
"Will you please talk to her? See if there's any chance we could get back together?"
"UH, gee, Howard. I really don't wanna get in the middle of this."
He wore her down and she finally agreed to talk to Bernadette. She set up a coffee date with them after her shift at the Cheesecake Factory.
Howard was waiting when she came to the table. "So Bernadette, how have you been?"
"Okay, you know, busy with school and work."
"So, are you seeing anyone?"
"No, what about you? Have you been seeing anybody?"
"Well you know, we guys, have needs."
"So you've been seeing other girls?"
""Well, uh, not real girls."
She looks disgusted, "Does that mean slutty trolls?"
He looked down, "Okay, fine, look I'll admit, heh, there are dark, sordid little corners of the internet where the name Wolowizard is whispered in hushed tones. But the only reason I go there, the only reason I've ever gone there is because I don't have a real woman in my life."
"Howard, you did have a real woman. I was right there in the next room while you were clicking that troll's brains out."
"Yeah, but we weren't heh---I mean, you and I never...."
She leaned in "Had sex?"
He nodded and looked down, "Yeah!"
She sat back, "Well, whose fault was that?"
"What do you mean, whose fault was that?"
"We could've been having sex, but you never made the move."
He was kicking himself now, "I didn't think you wanted me to make the move."
"Howard, a girl doesn't go out with a man like you, with your looks, your fancy patter and your tight hoochie pants, if she's not expecting him to eventually make the move."
"Really, son of a bitch!"
After that, Bernadette agreed to go on a date with him. They played miniature golf and had a bite to eat. Afterwards, Bernadette drove Howard home. When they got to his house, she put the car in park and all of a sudden there was an awkward moment, neither knew what to do next.
Howard started, "I had a good time."
"Me too."
From the back seat a voice, the voice of Katee Sackhoff came into his head, "Kiss her good night."
They leaned in and they began kissing, it grew deeper and Katee's voice came again, "All right, now a little tongue."
George Takei popped into his head; the voice came out clear, "Hold on there, we've only just rekindled the romance. Let's not sully the moment with the exchange of saliva."
Katee overran his thoughts, "Don't listen to him, she wants it. Tongue! See, I was right!"
Howard was playing with her breast, cupping it as he shoved his tongue into her mouth and she met his with an even stronger tongue.
Bernadette's hand fumbled with his zipper and freeing his cock, she began stroking it. Kissing him even deeper. Breaking the kiss she dropped down and took the entire length of his cock into her mouth. She knew how to suck cock. She bobbed up and down; her tongue flicked out and bathed his entire shaft.
Katee leaned over and watched and whispered to Howard, "Now make the move."
George broke in, "Mm-mm, too soon!"
Katee interrupted him, "Trust me, she's ready, make the move. Listen to me Howard, it's time. Make the move, now!"
Bernadette was slurping up and down on his cock, the way she was going to town, Howard thought Katee was right. He slipped his hand under her skirt and raced for her panty clad pussy. All of a sudden Bernadette popped off his cock and sat up straight, making a grunt, "What are you doing?"
"You said— Make the move, heh, remember?"
She straightened her skirt and sat up even more, "Well, not now. We're starting a new relationship. I need to get to know you again.
He stuffed his cock back in his pants, "No, you don't. It's me, the lusty charmer with the fancy patter and the hoochie pants."
"Be patient, we'll get there!"
She kissed him again and out of the back seat came George Takei's voice, "Told you!"
Things went back to normal, one evening Leonard and Sheldon were watching TV and Sheldon brought up Amy and Leonard asked him why he didn't spend time with her. He told Leonard and looked at him quizzically.
