The story picks up after Team Chuck arrives in Heathrow, London. This is the 2nd part of a series following their adventure. I now am the proud owner of Chuck… they're blue and white and I managed to get some soft blue laces for them! What? You thought I owned the actual show? (LOL!) Don't hate me for the beginning; I swear it will all be explained within the first few chapters. I also want to apologize for the delay on this one, school got a bit hectic.
A Mark, A Mission, A Brand, A Scar
Heaven Here – Chapter 1, Series 2
Chuck and Sarah reached their hotel room, kissing each other. Their hands ripped at each other's clothes. Chuck closes the door with his leg as he carries Sarah over to the bed where they fall onto it with a soft thud.
While in the throws of passion, Chuck reaches for the side of the bed and pulls out a gun, silencer attached, he points it at Sarah.
While kissing her with all his emotions, feelings, he gives her his all pulling back slightly to whisper, "I love you." He pulls the trigger. Once. Twice. Three times.
From across the street, watching form another building, two Fulcrum agents crack a smile.
"Sir it's done, Agent Bartowski has eliminated the female."
"Excellent, now all we have left is Agent Casey. Make sure he completes his mission."
3 days prior…
Casey, Chuck and Sarah had been driving for 45 minutes since they arrived at London Heathrow Airport.
"Uhh… shouldn't we have already been there like 5 minutes ago Casey?" asked Chuck who had sat in the back of the rental. "Hey that's the Royal Opera House! That means it should be nearby we should ask for directions." He said, looking out the windows at the buildings that were passing by in a blur.
Casey rolled his eyes as he pulled up next to a guy who was walking down the street.
"Excuse me sir?" asked Sarah, who was sitting in the passenger seat. "Can you direct us to the Soho Hotel please? We seem to have gotten a bit lost." Smiled Sarah.
The man who noticed Sarah's captivating beauty tipped his hat up and smiled flirtatiously with her. "Well you're going to want to make a u-turn and make a left on Dean Street. Once you reach that make another left at the Richmond's Building. The Soho Hotel is located directly in front."
"Thank you!" yelled Sarah as Casey made a quick turn before the man could say anything else to her.
Within minutes they arrived at the front of the hotel where two bell hops fought each other to see who would help them first.
"Mr. Grant!" shouted a kid who was walking out of the hotel. "Need help with your luggage?" he asked a huge smile on his face that made Casey and Sarah look towards his direction.
"Bobby! Yeah, if you're strong enough to lift her luggage." Chuck replied motioning towards Sarah.
The other two bell hops slumped their shoulders and staggered back towards the lobby as Bobby stuck his tongue out at them.
"So how long are you staying this time?" asked Bobby enthusiastically as he loaded up the luggage onto the cart.
"Not sure, I'm here on business and my fiancé" he said, wrapping an arm around Sarah. "Is checking out chapels here in the area."
"Ahh, so someone finally managed to make him settle down huh?" Bobby said winking at Sarah, making her blush.
"I'm Bobby by the way. Real name is Robert but folks like to call me Bobby because they say I look like a little kid." He said extending a hand out to Sarah.
"Nice to meet you Bobby, I'm Tess and this is my brother Daniel." She said giggling as she introduced Casey as her brother.
Casey rolled his eyes and grunted as he helped load the rest of their luggage onto the cart.
The valet took the car as Bobby led the way into the hotel. "And to your left you will see the 10ft. bronze sculpture of a cat by the Columbian Sculptor Fernando Botero" announced Bobby jokingly. As they passed a group of tourists who were taking pictures in front of it.
"I'll go get us checked in" said Casey as he walked away towards the receptionist. Sarah nodded as she looped her arm with Chuck's. Surprised by her action he glanced over at her, giving her a puzzled look. "We have to pretend don't we?" she remarked giving him a seductive smile. Chuck blushed as he took her hand and kissed it, "who said I was pretending?" he added.
Casey returned with the room keys, "Okay let's go" he said grinning.
As they approached their room Casey and Sarah immediately began scanning the area, noting every detail in the layout. Sarah looked at Chuck who had been walking non-chalantly. "Wonder just how many times he's been here before" she thought to herself.
"I would say hope you enjoy your stay but given the present company, I'm positive you'll do just fine." Bobby said winking at Sarah. "If there's anything you need just let me know Mr. Grant."
"Bobby, how many times must I tell you that it's okay to call me Tom or Tommy." Said Chuck smiling as he handed Bobby a hundred dollar bill.
"At least one more time Mr. Grant," he said as he nodded and walked off pushing the cart back towards the elevator.
"Nice kid Bartowski, how'd you meet" asked Casey, feigning interest while gathering his things.
"Whenever I have business in town, I always stay here. He's always the first to help with my luggage." Chuck responded dragging the luggage into the room.
Casey grunted, "Touching, now if you'll excuse me I'm going to get the equipment set up in my room." Casey stalked off carrying the luggage to his door. They were just down the hall from each other, so if anything happened the other would be alerted.
As soon as Casey disappeared into his room Chuck lifted Sarah into his arms. "So future Mrs. Grant are you ready for the mission?"
Sarah was surprised when Chuck had lifted her up; she smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "Are you ready for tonight's mission, Mr. Grant?" she whispered seductively into his ear.
Chuck cocked an eyebrow at her, a puzzled look on his face. His eyes suddenly widened and a grin spread across his face as he caught on to what she meant. He tried to balance her in his arms as he quickly shoved the rest of the luggage into the room. Chuck started to stumble over the luggage which caused Sarah to burst into a fit of laughter. They fell onto the bed and began kissing passionately. Sarah moved her hand behind his head bringing him closer. Chuck had his arms wrapped around her as he rolled onto his back. "Be gentle with me" he said to her as she brought her mouth towards his again, a smile forming on her face.
"No promises," she whispered as she nibbled on his neck making his eyes roll up towards the ceiling, an even bigger smile on his face.
"Fifteen minutes and 25 seconds. I think I broke my record," grinned Casey as he put the stop watch in his duffel bag and admired the surveillance equipment that he had managed to assemble.
His phone began to ring.
"Casey, line secure. Yes general, we've arrived at the hotel. Bartowski and Walker are in the other room."
"Major Casey, we've received Intel that there are government agents who are stealing top secret files for their own benefit. We believe they are associated with Fulcrum."
"Have we identified any of those agents?" asked Casey a grim look showing on his face.
"Not at this moment, but I want you to keep an eye on Bartowski. We don't know what he's capable of. Inform Agent Walker as well."
"Yes General, Casey out." Casey stuffed his phone back in his pocket, millions of thoughts going through his head. He decided to go for a walk and try to put everything in order. "Is he capable of betraying us? He doesn't seem like the type that would, but then again I had no idea he was government trained. Neither did he though."
Chuck and Sarah laid in bed, their touches and caresses conveying how they felt for each other.
"I could stay like this forever, as long as you're here with me." Chuck said, breaking the silence.
Sarah smiled as she traced her finger along the contour of his chest. "Have you ever thought of what your life would be like if you never received the intersect?" Sarah said, hoping she wouldn't regret it later.
Chuck laid there pondering for a moment, he took a deep breath and exhaled, "I have, and each time I do I thank God that I did receive it." He said, a small grin forming on his face.
Sarah was shocked at his answer; she was waiting for some kind of resentment or hate for being given no choice in the outcome of his life. She propped herself up laying her hand on his chest for leverage. "Why do you say that?" she asked a puzzled look on her face.
He looked into her eyes, those deep pools of blue that had him mesmerized whenever he stared into them. "I think about what I'd be missing in my life and where I would be if I never received it."
Sarah laid her head on his chest, still confused but not wanting to press the matter any further.
Sensing that she wasn't quite satisfied with his answer he continued, "if Bryce never had sent me the intersect, you would have never showed up in my life."
Sarah kissed his chest and smiled remembering the way he was so oblivious when she had walked up to the Nerd Herd station doing a little rap about Vicki Vale.
"You probably wouldn't have been interested in me if I was just some guy you met on the street." He spoke, his tone sounding a bit sad.
Sarah wrapped her arms around him and held him tightly. "Would I have taken a second glance at him if he was just another guy I met on the street?" she thought to herself. Sarah closed her eyes and buried her face in his side not knowing how to respond.
"Plus…" Chuck continued, taking her out of her thoughts. "I can't imagine my life without you, even with this thing in my head" he said holding her closer as he said it.
Sarah smiled as she opened her eyes, taking a deep breath she pulled herself up so that she was now on top of him; wrapping her arms and legs around him and resting her head on his chest. Chuck grinned; he kissed the top of her head as he wrapped his arms around her.
Their smiles quickly faded as both their cell phones rang simultaneously. Chuck and Sarah looked at each other, wondering whether or not they should answer their phones.
Sarah sighed, "If we don't answer now, we'll pay for it later" she said reaching over to grab the phone. She looked at the caller ID before answering it. "It's Casey" she said as she rolled off of Chuck, wrapping a sheet around her body.
Chuck blushed as he was left exposed. Quickly grabbing his boxers from the floor, he put them on as he reached for his phone that continued to vibrate on the nightstand.
His face turned serious as he saw who it was, Chuck glanced over at Sarah who was balancing the phone between her shoulder and ear; while digging through her bag. He smiled and walked out onto the balcony, answering his phone while closing the glass door behind him.
"He's out on the balcony, what is it Casey?" Sarah said impatiently trying to pull out an outfit from her bag.
"I just got off the phone with Beckman; she wants us to keep an eye on Bartowski." He said, pushing the button to call the elevator down.
"What? Why!" she stammered, looking over her shoulder at Chuck who's back was facing her.
"The people that he works for are believed to be a part of Fulcrum. Think about it, we know the old Chuck not this one. He could be in with them." Casey replied moving the phone to his other hand and pushing the button to their floor.
"I don't believe it, plus if he was a part of Fulcrum he would've turned himself in already since he is the intersect." Sarah replied with a slight edge in her voice.
"Just make sure you watch yourself when you're alone with him." He sighed defeated. "I'll be up in a bit."
Sarah waited until Casey hung up before tossing her phone in her bag and going to take a quick shower.
"Bartowski, line secure" Chuck said as soon as the glass door sealed shut.
"Agent, there's been a few modifications to the plan." Said Harris speaking calmly into the receiver.
Chuck leaned on the railing of the balcony overlooking London's skyline, sighing re replied "Awaiting your orders sir."
"I've been given specific orders for you to eliminate Agents Casey and Walker once you've accomplished the first task. They are not to return alive, understood?"
Chucks eyes widened as he gripped the railing with his hand. He stood silent for a moment, his eyes darting around trying to grasp the orders that were just given to him.
"Understood Bartowski?!" yelled Harris into the receiver.
Chuck closed his eyes and dropped his head. "Understood sir, is that all?" he replied trying to collect his nerves.
"Yes, I'm sorry." Harris said as the line went dead.
Chuck stood on the balcony in order to control his emotions, Sarah would know if something was bothering him.
Ogden, Utah
Harris sat in his chair as he put the phone back on the receiver. "There I did what you asked me to do, now please let me go." He pleaded with an unknown person in the room.
"Yes you did, unfortunately we can't run the risk of you exposing us." Said the man as he started to pull out his gun.
"Wait, you said I could go free if I did exactly what you told me to do. Please don't kill me." Pleaded Harris.
"Sorry, but orders are orders" the man said as he put two bullets in Harris' head.
Harris's body slumped over the desk, lifeless. The man poked the body with his gun as he pulled out his cell phone.
"It's done; Bartowski is to carry out his orders after securing the data. Do you think he'll go through with it?" he said as he began to drag the dead body over to the closet.
Heathrow, London
When Chuck came back inside, his once pale face flushed a hint of red, his arms fell lifeless to his sides as his jaw dropped open. Sarah had just gotten out of the shower and was dressing. It amazed him that every time he saw her, she always managed to take his breath away.
Just a few days ago she couldn't say how she felt to him, now she was letting him watch her dress. She gave him a wink as she threw the towel to the floor. Chuck smiled as he sat down on the bed facing her.
Sarah noted his whole demeanor had changed since his phone call, but she didn't want to question him. Instead she walked over to him, her hair still wet and wearing only a black lace bra with some matching lace panties. She straddled Chuck, lightly sitting on his lap and wrapping her arms around him for support.
Chuck and Sarah looked at each other for a moment before he wrapped his arms around her and buried his head in her neck. She moved her hands to his head cradling him, rocking back and forth on the bed. "Is something wrong Chuck?" she asked, concerned as to what made him change.
Chuck sat there unmoving, inhaling the scent of her shampoo. "Nothing." He replied, refusing to move from his position. "Is it okay if I keep you like this forever?" he added, squeezing her closer towards him.
Sarah smiled closing her eyes, enjoying his breath as it tickled her neck. "I'd love to" she said kissing the side of his head, moving her way down. He let out a low moan as she lingered just below his ear. "I found his spot" she thought to herself, as she continued to kiss and suckle at the area she found. She didn't realize it, but she enjoyed how Chuck was melting in her arms through this simple motion.
Chuck responded in return moving one hand towards the small of her back, the other towards her thigh as he kissed her neck moving slowly towards her chest. He gasped as she continued in the same spot, massaging it with her tongue. She ran one hand through his hair, the other just above his shoulder, running her fingers along his shoulder blade.
"Wait" Chuck whispered pulling her slightly back. He smiled as he looked at her. "We won't get any work done if we keep doing this." He chuckled as he kissed her on the shoulder.
She squeezed her eyes shut as she remembered that the whole reason they were here was because of their mission.
Chuck caressed the side of her cheek with the back of his hand as he trailed it down the side of her neck, all the way to her thigh. This sent a surge of electricity through her body. "If only I could keep him locked up forever" she thought, eyes rolling towards the ceiling. "Neither of us would see the light of day again that's for sure."
Sarah sighed, opening her eyes and getting up. She walked back to her suitcase to finish getting dressed. Chuck lingered on the bed watching her actions before getting up. "I'm going to go take a cold shower" he said kissing her neck one last time before disappearing into the bathroom.
She smiled and nodded, walking over to the mirror to put on make-up. As she started to do so she couldn't help but think about Casey's warning.
Chuck locked the door behind him then turned on the shower. As he waited for the water to get ready he gripped the sides of the sink trying to think of a way to get Sarah safely out of this situation.
As Chuck stepped into the shower and started to shampoo his hair, he was struck with an idea. He quickly finished and got dressed, a sinister smile forming on his face as he continued to formulate the specifics of his plan.
He grabbed his wallet from the dresser and paused at the door.
"Stay here and don't open the door to anyone unless it's me or Casey. Make sure you don't go anywhere near the windows either, I'll be back as soon as I can." With that Chuck left before she got a word in.
Sarah continued to stare at the door, a look of puzzlement and anger on her face. No one has ever ordered her to do anything, well no one except her superiors. She decided to have a word with him when he returned but for now Sarah decided to listen, bringing out her knives to polish.
For those over at FF, I told ya I would include the caressing and the touching of the small of her back somehow! Even though I could've sworn I saw it on the show (LOL!) I'll try to get the next chapter up as soon as possible.
