Ed. Note: This is one of many Mundane moments to come. They won't all be canon like this nor will they be in chronological order. Hope you enjoy, please review, and continue to read, becaus, in my personal opinion, the stories get better as they go on.
Chuck vs. Toto
Another day another bad guy defeated. Sarah entered the Buy More exhausted. She just wanted to go home and sleep. But she had to talk to Chuck. She couldn't leave things the way they had been after today's events. The automatic doors slid open and she entered what felt like a different world. The Nerd Herder desk had been turned into a stage with a banner above it that read "Jeffster". She knew immediately what was going on. Surely Jeff and Lester were pulling of some idiot stunt. Jeffster jumped on stage and began to sing Toto's "Africa". She dispelled their presence from her mind. She had to focus. She had to find Chuck. She looked around for the tall, curly brown haired man in his classic Nerd herd uniform. As she continued deeper into the store she saw a hint of that crooked smile she had come to love. She found her target and approached. "Chuck."
He turned toward her, hands tucked under his arms. His curly hair bouncing with the movement. "Hey Sarah." He said with his award winning smile.
How could he act like this? With her being so callous and cold to him all the time. Especially today. She felt guilt overcome her. He was too kind. Too loving. She could never live up to his generosity. "Chuck. I… I just wanted to say…" she couldn't get the words out.
Chuck unfolded his arms. Almost as if he was saying I'm here to listen.
"I just wanted to say that I could have been more sensitive to your friendship with Morgan. I just don't really have anybody in my life that cares for me like that and so-"
"Yes you do." He said interrupting her apology.
She knew what he meant. He meant the he was there for her. Her heart melted. She lifted the corners of her mouth in a smile. Sarah was momentarily distracted by Jeffster belting the chorus of the song and with that Chuck caught her off guard. She looked down at her hand as she felt his fingers intertwining with hers. Her heart began to race and she looked into Chuck's eyes. There was something about those chocolate oceans of his that felt like… Home. Realizing she was on dangerous ground she turned her attention back to Jeffster. But, her thoughts were on their hands. She knew she she need to reign her emotions in but something in her wouldn't let her let go. She didn't know what to do. She could feel the begging of a very slippery slope.
