Disclaimer: I don't own Chuck

Sarah burst into Carina's hotel room and was fuming. She had to hold herself back from lunging at Carina.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Sarah yelled

"What are you talking about?" asked Carina

"Why are you going after Chuck, you are just going to hurt him" Sarah said

"Wow Sarah jealous much? Carina asked

"I am not jealous, I just want to make sure nothing happens to my asset" Sarah said

"Sure, I am sure that is it" Carina replied

"It is" Sarah shot back

"Sarah why can't you be honest with yourself. Enough with being so professional, you got to look after yourself as well. A blind man can tell you have fallen for Chuck" Carina replied.

"You are delusional" Sarah said

"Oh I am the delusional one? You burst into my hotel room when you find out that I am going on a date with Chuck and nearly rip my head off. Then you try and pretend that it is for Chuck's protection? Please Sarah don't insult my intelligence" Carina said.

"Alright fine go on your date, I don't care anymore," Sarah said

That was a lie Sarah did care; she cared very much. She was very upset on the drive home and as soon as she reached her hotel room she starting sobbing. She couldn't stand the thought of Chuck with another woman, why did she have to be so difficult? Why couldn't she just tell Chuck how she felt? But then her professional side kicked in and reminded her that she had a job to do. Sarah stopped crying and decided to go to the gun range. Shooting things always made her feel better.

Across town Chuck was getting ready for his date with Carina. He remembered to dress nicely this time, unlike his first "date" with Sarah in which Ellie had to remind him. He then made his way over to the fountain where Carina was waiting for him. He jaw dropped when he say her, she was wearing a tight black dress that was super low cut and had a slit running up to her thigh.

"Damn, you look good" Chuck said

"Thank you" Carina replied

"So I was thinking we could go to this Italian place near the harbor" Chuck said

"Sure that sounds good" Carina replied.

Chuck and Carina left for the restaurant arm in arm. Casey was watching from the window and could only think to himself lucky bastard. Seeing Carina like that made him hot and he was thinking maybe he should try to hook up with her. But that would make things real awkward for his team and they did not need that. Besides he really felt that Bartowski needed to be less tense and this seemed like one way to do it. What would Reagan do? Casey asked himself and went back to his dinner.

Chuck and Carina were having a great time at the restaurant. The service was impeccable and Chuck was pretty sure that was due to Carina, but he didn't care, he was having a great time.

"So how are you enjoying Los Angeles?" Chuck asked

"It is alright, not as boring as I thought it would be. Plus I seem to have found excellent company" Carina said

"Hey, I am also having a good time but you going out with me tonight does it have anything to do with Sarah?" Chuck asked

"No" replied Carina

"Alright sorry to bring it up but I just had to ask" Chuck said

"No biggie" replied Carina

The rest of dinner went great and as they left Chuck put his arms behind Carina and gave her a kiss. It wasn't the kiss Carina usually got; it wasn't wild but soft and passionate. She let out a moan when Chuck was done which put a smile on Chuck's face. He held Carina in his arms as they watched the sunset.

"Hey Chuck?" Carina said

"Yes" Chuck answered

"Want to come back to my place?" Carina asked

"Carina I had a great time tonight and really want to do this again but I am kind of an old fashioned guy and don't believe in sleeping with a girl on the first date. I know that makes me sound lame." Chuck said

"No, it makes you sound adorable. Don't worry about it we can do it another night" Carina said.

"Alright well do you want to go to the roof of the Buy More and watch a meteor shower that taking place tonight?" Chuck asked

"I would love to" Carina replied

Chuck and Carina had a great time watching the shower and when he was dropping her off at her place they had another great kiss. As Chuck made his way back to his place he could not stop smiling. As he was walking to his apartment he heard his name being called. He looked up and saw it was Casey.

"So how did it go tonight Bartowski from the look on your face it looked like you joined me in the Carina Club" Casey said

"Well we had a great time but we did not sleep together we are taking things slow. But we are going on another date." Chuck said

"Well that is good, you should have slept with her thought she is very good at it" Casey said

"Good to know" replied Chuck

"So has Walker said anything to you about your date?" Casey asked

"No but I think she would be fine with it, after all we just friends now" Chuck replied

Chuck and Casey said their goodbyes and Chuck went back to his place. Casey wasn't so sure that Sarah was being truthful when she said she wanted to be just friends but decided to not say anything and let things run their course.
