A/N: It has been way too long I know! Forgive me. I am suffering from a writer's block you wouldn't even imagine, I lost my beta (who I really need) and I have been really busy with school. This chapter isn't my best. There's just 2/3 chapters to go and I swear that those will be much better.
PLEASE REVIEW! (be a bit kind please)
FRIDAY
Sarahs POV
"Sarah. What ar-? What are you beautiful!"
He almost faints at the sight of Sarah slowly coming down the stairs. The purple dress hugs her body showing of het beautiful body. Her hair waves a little as she takes the steps. When she is close to him he can see the sparkle in her blue eyes. Standing right in front of him he fights the urge to pinch himself. This must be a dream.
"Chuck? Chuck? Earth to Chuck!" Sarah smiles at her mother who is looking at them with awe from the doorway. "I think I broke him."
"Be- be- beautiful." Chuck mumbles out.
"Thank you Chuck. You're looking very dapper yourself." She straightens his tie.
He shakes his head. "Back to earth." The Bartowski smile brightens the room. "Are you ready to go my lady?"
"Lead the way." She hooks her arm through Chucks and they walk out the door. Standing on the porch Sarah looks around to find his truck. "Where is your car?"
"Wait her a second." Chuck kisses her on the cheek and walks towards the street. He waves at someone and hurries back to Sarah. Her eyes go wide like saucers when a slick black limo rolls down the street.
"Wow!"
"You like it?" Chuck takes her hand and leads her to the limo. Her eyes go wider than possible when she sees the inside. Rose peddles are spread around, chilled champagne with two glasses is standing ready for them. They sit down in the limo.
Sarah leans into Chuck. "You are amazing!"
"It's just a limo." He shrugs planting a kiss on her forehead.
"You're too humble."
Smiling like an idiot he pops open the champagne pouring them both a glass. "Where are we going?" Sarah asks curious.
"That's a surprise." Before she can open her mouth to say something he puts his finger on her lips. "I know you hate surprise but this is a good one I promise."
"I trust you." Even if she is a hundred percent sure about this she downs her champagne in one go.
"Liquid courage?"
"I can't help feeling a little worried." Sarah answers blushing.
"We're almost there. Don't worry."
FLASHBACK
She looks at herself in the mirror in her black spy gear. This is the woman she knows. The person she has trained to be for so many years. The woman that can stop a revolution with a fork. A proud member of the CIA. The weight on the side of her hip drags her attention away from the mirror. Slowly she reaches for her Smith & Wesson and stares down at the weapon. Many people have been hurt or killed by this. She is the woman behind the gun. The wild card enforcer. Suddenly she notices her hands shaking. Not because she is scared or panicked. No, she is furious. Furious about the person she has become. With force she throws the gun back in the special case. More careful she opens the dress box. Holding it up in front of her she stands in front of the mirror. This is who she wants to be. Going fast she dresses herself and makes sure she looks stunning. When the doorbell rings her heart jumps. He is here. Her prince and savior. Taking one last look at herself she walks towards the stairs already seeing Chuck fiddling with his tie.
END FLASHBACK
"Sarah? Sarah?" Chuck waves a hand in front of her face. "Honey we are here."
"Really already?" Sarah looks around her. They are somewhere in the mountains. It doesn't look familiar. Chuck gets out of the limo and jogs around to open the door for Sarah. Stepping out of the limo gracefully she takes in the environment. Mist hangs around the mountains, the sun is setting slowly and the fresh smell of pine needles fills her nose.
Chuck puts out his hand waiting for her to take it. "Are you coming?" Sarah looks down at the ground hesitantly. It are all small rocks and it doesn't look stable. She is trained to walk on high heels but not on this kind of terrain.
"Uuhh…"
Chuck takes a step closer to her. "What's wrong?"
"I can't walk on this with my heels." Sarah says apologetic.
Without thinking for a second he picks her up bridal style. "No problem my lady." With a giggling Sarah in his arms he walks towards the special place he prepared. She gasps when he puts her back down on the ground. They are in a beautiful open spot in the woods surrounded by pine trees. A table is placed in the center with two chairs. Thousands of roses are spread out on the ground indicating a path to the table. The grass makes her able to walk again and hand in hand they walk to the table. As the gentleman he is he pulls her chair out with grace.
"Thank you." She plants a quick kiss on his cheek making him blush. Why is he suddenly blushing? When Chuck sits down himself she notices his hands shaking. Putting on a comforting smile she looks him deep in his chocolate brown eyes. His body relaxes and he sinks down a little on his chair. She loves having this calming effect on him. "It's beautiful here."
"I've seen better." She is surprised by Chuck his comment. This most have cost a fortune to plan and he is still acting like it's nothing. "Aren't you going to ask me what?"
"What?"
"You."
"Me?"
Chuck leans over a little to grab her hand lying on the table. "Yes you. Every time I see you it's the most beautiful place I have ever been and the best thing that I've ever seen."
Now it's Sarah's time to blush. She knows she is turning red but she doesn't care. After enjoying the moment and the touching Chuck speaks up again.
"Are you hungry?"
"Kind off. Where are we going to eat?"
"Right here." Chuck waves his hand in the air and a clearly confused delivery guy walks up to the couple.
"Two sizzling shrimp deluxe menu's for Mister Bartowski?"
"That's me." Chuck grabs the bags and gives the man a 50. "Keep the change."
"Thank you sir." The Chinese delivery guy takes a bow and walks away back in the woods.
Sizzling shrimp? To be honest she is a bit disappointed. In a place like this with what she has experienced so for she expected lobster or something like that. She watches in surprise as Chuck opens the containers and divides the food. Trying not to be too disappointed she takes a bite of her shrimp. Delicious! This is way better than lobster.
Sarah moans a little when she fills her mouth with shrimp again. "This is delicious!"
"That's the magical power of sizzling shrimp."
"I have to admit Chuck. I was a little disappointed with the meal at first but this is pure heaven."
"Glad you like it." They munch away on their shrimp and Chuck ends up giving Sarah half his meal. After finishing everything Sarah gasps and puts her hands in front of her mouth.
"I ate like a pig! It's so inappropriate."
Chuck laughs a little at her embarrassed reaction. "It was cute. You'll dance it off tonight."
"Dancing?"
"You'll see later. It's a surprise."
"I am truly amazed about all this. You keep surprising me."
"I can't take all the credit. Ellie had a lot to do with all this."
"Ellie?" Suddenly something clicks in her brain. If Ellie helped all this she was probably the woman on the phone. "O God" She buries her face in her hands. She acted like a jealous idiot. She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't notice that Chuck kneeled down next to her.
"What's the matter honey?"
"I am an idiot."
"What are you talking about?"
"I thought you were cheating on me. I listened in on your phone call at the restaurant and you were acting so strange!"
When she hears him laugh she looks up from her hands. "You're not mad?"
"Of course not. Why would I be mad? It's funny."
Sarah knows she is pouting more than a little. "It's not trust me."
"Yes it is. Now are you finished eating?"
"Well there is nothing left so yes"
"Let's go then."
She takes his hand and they walks away from the open place in the woods. "Where are we going?"
"Surprise." Chuck says calmly lifting her up so she can walk over the gravel. When they stop at the limo again she crawls in the limo shaking with nerves for the next surprise.
Chuck obviously noticed her shaking. "Trust me you'll like this one just as much as the food."
Chuck's POV
Maybe it's a bit cruel but he is really having fun with scaring Sarah. He is a bit proud he can make a CIA agent shake. Saying it like that makes it even more cruel. He sits close to her so she can hold his hand. They are still shaking a little.
"If I had known you hates surprises this much I wouldn't have done all this." He stares at their intertwined hands afraid to make eye contact. A soft hand lifts his chin up.
"I love every second of this. Trust me."
He smiles and leans in for a kiss. "There's just one surprise left. We should…" before he can finish his sentence the limo stops abruptly. They look at each other with shock in their eyes. "Stay in the car" Chuck grabs the door handle but a strong hand on his shoulder stops him.
"Really? You have a trained CIA agent in the car and you are the one who is going to check out the situation?"
Chuck looks at Sarah. He really doesn't want to bring her in any danger and certainly not on their date. "We'll go together." They get out of the car and strong wind almost blows them away. They are parked on the pier leading to the lighthouse. The driver of the limo is standing at the front of the limo. When they approach him he throws his hands in the air.
"I couldn't help it mister Bartowski. The water is too high I can't drive down there."
"It's okay Big Mike. This isn't your fault."
"What do you want to do now mister Bartowski?"
Chuck looks at Sarah standing beside him. "Let's just go home. We'll cuddle on the couch."
"Great idea. Drive us home Big Mike."
They walk back to the back of the limo and wait for the limo to bring them home. It's just a short drive from the pier to the Walker household. After tipping Big Mike they enter the house. Emma who was reading a book on the couch looks up at the two.
"You two are back pretty soon."
"My last surprise kind of failed." Chuck is really disappointed by this but what can he do about the water. When he is tugged to the stairs by Sarah he knows he drifted off. "I thought we were going to cuddle?"
"We can do that in the bed." Sarah leads him to her bedroom. All he can do is stand in the middle of the room and look around. Of course he knows what Sarah is expecting but he is still kind of down from his failed surprise.
Sarah looks at him with a quirked eyebrow. "Why are you suddenly so shy?"
"Am not." He blurs out feeling childish immediately.
"Yes you are." Sarah takes a few steps closer to him. "Kiss me."
With hesitation he leans in and gives her a quick kiss on the lips.
"That's it?"
"Uhm…"
Sarah throws her arms around his neck and leans into him really heavy. "Let me show you how it's done." Surprised by her aggressiveness he staggers back a bit landing on the bed with Sarah on top of him.
