A/N: Hey all! Thank you so much for all the positive reviews, it's helped me stay motivated to write for you guys. The reason why I'm having Sarah move at a somewhat fast pace is because I felt that Sarah was already falling for Chuck again on the beach despite not remembering much. Anyway, here's the next update! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own Chuck

Three Weeks Later:

Chuck was jerked awake by someone banging on the apartment door. He raised his head slightly to see if Sarah was still sleeping. Luckily she was. Chuck carefully slid his arm out from underneath Sarah's shoulders. He rose himself out of bed, grabbed a t shirt that was lying in a nearby chair, and set out to see who was interrupting his sleep.

The pounding continued as he walked closer. "Yeah, yeah…I'm coming," Chuck said, only loud enough for his own ears to hear. He reached for the door knob and opened it, revealing his bearded best friend who was grinning from ear to ear.

"Hey Chuck! What's up?" Morgan announced as he let himself in.

"Shh! Morgan, not so loud. Sarah is still sleeping," Chuck replied as he shut the door.

Morgan plopped himself down on the couch and set his feet up on the coffee table. "Sorry. How have you and Sarah been? Been a while since I've seen you guys."

"Yeah, it has. We're doing alright…Sarah's slowly regaining some of her memories. Sometimes there's several that come back in a day, sometimes there's none. Despite that, we're still trying to become closer."

"Have you heard the news yet? Casey wouldn't let me tell you when it happened cause he wanted you and Sarah to settle in first."

Chuck's mind was swirling. Since he didn't have his cup of coffee yet, he had no clue what Morgan was trying to tell him.

"Morgan, what are you talking about? What are you trying to say?"

Morgan took his feet off the table and leaned forward in his seat. "Casey and Alex's mom, you remember Kathleen right? Anyway they're engaged!"

Chuck nodded. "Yeah he did."

Morgan's mouth dropped. "What? When did he tell you?"

Chuck let out a soft laugh. "The day after. He came to tell me and Sarah that—"

"CHUCK!" Sarah screamed.

Chuck's head snapped towards the direction of Sarah's voice, bringing his mind out the morning fog it was in.

"Sarah?" he called out as he dashed down the hall towards her.

Sarah kicked in the door and pointed her gun at the silver haired man standing just inside. "I've been looking for you," she stated bitterly. She kicked the gun out of his hands and drove the butt of her gun between the man's shoulders, sending him crashing into the window beside the door. Sarah turned towards the center of the room to see Chuck bound in a chair, unconscious. "Chuck!" Sarah yelled as she ran over to be beside him.

"He really has no use he's almost completely gone!" a scientist yelled as Sarah went running by.

"Shut up!" Casey responded, driving the butt of his gun into the scientist's head, sending him sprawling onto the floor.

"Chuck," she repeated as she removed the probes that were on Chuck's forehead before his mind was gone forever. "Chuck, come on please wake up," Sarah begged, already crying, as she released one of the bonds. "Chuck, listen to me. I'm here! Chuck, I'm here! I came to rescue you. I'm right here Chuck…"

"Chuck, please. Come on!" The tears were steadily flowing down her cheeks now.

Morgan approached her. "Hey. Hey, hey, hey. Tell him what you told me before, okay? He'll here that, I know it. This, this is your chance. Don't be Sarah Walker the spy, be Sarah Walker the girlfriend."

Sarah nodded and took Morgan's advice. "Chuck, please. Chuck I love you! Please wake up! I have so much I want to tell you." She took a breath. "I found your proposal plan. You were going to do it on the beach in Malibu. Where we watched the sun rise after our first date, there were several race cars involved. Chuck I want to spend the rest of my life with you and I don't care if you have the Intersect or not. Without you I'm nobody. I'm nothing but a spy. Come back to me Chuck. I want to marry you!" she concluded as she leaned to kiss Chuck. After she kissed him, she pulled back and hoped that the kiss would bring him back. Each second felt like an eternity, and his eyes did not open.

"CHUCK!" she screamed, fearing she had lost him forever.

Sarah opened her eyes and shot up to a sitting position, but she could only see a blurred world through the tears.

She heard someone calling down the hall, but her mind was still muddled from sleep and wasn't able to make out what the voice was saying. Sarah heard the door opening and felt the bed sink down slightly as someone else joined her.

"Sarah, babe are you alright?" the voice said.

Sarah wiped her eyes and saw the man she loved sitting in front of her, alive and well. She wrapped her arms around Chuck's neck as tears of relief fell.

Chuck rubbed his hand lightly up and down Sarah's back. "It's alright, everything is going to be fine."

After a few moments of neither one of them moving, they both heard footsteps enter their room. Both turned towards the doorway and saw Morgan standing halfway in the room. "Hey Sarah, how's it going?"

Chuck's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at his best friend. "Buddy, now's not the best time," he said in a low tone.

Morgan nodded. "Alright, I'll take the hint and let myself out. I'll see ya both later," he replied, understanding Chuck's comment.

"You wanna talk about it?"

Sarah came out of Chuck's embrace, "I thought I lost you," she whispered.

"Well, clearly you didn't because," he responded, gesturing towards himself, "here I am. Besides, it was just a dream. None of it happened."

Sarah laughed softly and shook her head at the same time. "I'm not so sure if it was just a dream."

Chuck raised an eyebrow. "Alright…why don't you tell me about it, see if I can help you."

She nodded and mentally recalled the details of the events of the dream. "Casey, Morgan, and I were in a jungle and came across some sort of hide out…some sort of cabin. I broke inside and there was a makeshift lab set up. You were inside, tied up, unconscious, and connected to some sort of monitor. After knocking out one of the guys inside I rushed to you and tried to get you to wake up. No matter what I did you wouldn't wake up. I finally took Morgan's suggestion and told you why I loved you and kissed you. Each second seemed to take an eternity and you still wouldn't wake up."

Chuck's eyes widened and he let out his breath. "Ah…yeah, well that did happen. The Belgian captured me, intending to take the Intersect, but at that point it wasn't working. You went tearing through Thailand to try and find me."

Sarah leaned back on the bed and covered her face with her hands. Chuck leaned over her and planted a kiss on the back of her left hand. "Look on the bright side, you're remembering more."

"Yeah," she responded through her hands. "But I'd rather not wake up to thinking you're dead."

Chuck nodded slightly. "Understandable," he said as he nuzzled his face into Sarah's neck.

Sarah started to giggle and playfully tried to push Chuck to his side of the bed. "Chuck, what are you doing?"

"Trying to help you regain some memories, and maybe make some new ones too," he replied as he placed a kiss on her lips.

A/N #2: A little foreshadowing in that last bit? Stay tuned to find out! Like? Dislike? Leave a comment below :) For those who are reading Casey's Next Step, I plan on having one or two one shots before the engagement party in this series, then one directly after the party. I have them planned out in my head right now, so hopefully I'll be able to put them to paper (er RAM) very soon. Until next time!
