I don't own Chuck.

Quick summary – The team go on a mission to capture rogue agent Harry Williams. With the recent break-up, Chuck and Sarah keep focus on the mission, but soon it proves to become too much for Chuck to handle.

Thanks for past reviews everyone. And please, please don't hate me cause I've broken up Chuck and Sarah. With all beautiful romances, there are obstacles to overcome; it can't run smoothly 100% of the time. I am a huge Charah shipper and I love the couple on the show, so don't worry these two will be back together in chapter 16. I wanted to keep them apart for longer, but considering recent reviews i received, I'm having the reunion a tad earlier.

Chapter 14 – Sarah vs Chuck

Chuck and Sarah's eyes were glued to each other, they recently broken up and now they were thrown into a situation where they must pose as a happy couple. Sarah snapped out of it and turned back to the screen. Beckman noticed the sudden tension between the two.

"Is there a problem?"

"No problem General. Me and Chuck had a disagreement, but that's all sorted out. It won't affect this mission."

"I hope it doesn't. As I was saying, you two are to befriend Williams and if you impress him, it will be more than likely he will invite you to his VIP suite. Casey you'll be the barman and your to watch over and make sure everything is safe and secure. Once they enter the VIP suite, Casey you are to arrange back-up to be waiting outside to take Williams away. Afterwards you're to find a way into the suite without being noticed and assist Agent Walker. Is that clear?"

"Yes General" Sarah and Casey replied.

Beckman looked at Chuck awaiting his response.

"Oh yeah…I've got that all."

"Mr Bartowski, you will flash on this man and if anything flags up that we do not know of, alert Walker straight away."

"Yes General."

Beckman then disconnected the call. As Casey went into the back room, Sarah and Chuck were left alone. They both felt extremely awkward, from going from a happy and love filled scene to an awkward moment was a knock for Chuck, he was finding it hard knowing how to deal with the situation.

"Chuck are we still clear on everything?" Sarah asked him.

"Yeah Sarah, I know my place."

"Good."

Chuck walked away heading back to work but before leaving the Castle he watched over Sarah for a few seconds.

"Chuck go to work".

Chuck quickly exited the Castle and walked off to the Buy More.

Back at the Castle…………..

Just as Sarah was about to return to the Orange Orange, Casey stopped her.

"Walker, get over here. We need to talk."

Sarah was half way up the stairs and on hearing Casey's voice and what he said, she rolled her eyes back. All the while hoping he didn't suspect what had gone on between her and Chuck.

"What is it Casey?"

"You think I didn't notice that? You and Chuck, whatever it is sort it Walker. We can't afford to compromise this mission or future missions."

"I'll handle it Casey." Sarah the headed back to work

Hours later……

The team all met at Casey's apartment. They all suited up for the mission and went over their plan once more. They were all made clear on their roles. Casey took a trip to the toilet and once again Sarah and Chuck were left alone.

"Chuck, I have said this before and now I'm saying it again. What happened is in the past, it's over and done with. We cannot reflect back on it or use it as a defence or attack. I don't want it to keep on being brought up. We're having to pose as a couple and this will happen again on future missions, so your understanding what I'm saying?

"I do Sarah. Its ok, I know and I understand. It's not going to be easy for me, but I'm not gonna screw this up."

"It won't be easy for me either Chuck, but we can work around it…we have to."

The conversation was cut short due to Casey's return.

"Ready….let's get out of here."

They headed for Casey's Vic and made their way over to the club, Midnight.

Once in the nightclub Sarah and Chuck put on their game faces and they acted and talked like a real couple. As they slowed danced in the middle of the dance floor, Chuck relished every moment, holding onto Sarah as if it was the last time he could touch her. Then Sarah whispered into Chuck's ear,

"Kiss me. We gotta make this real."

Cover or no cover, Chuck wouldn't turn down a kiss from Sarah. He pulled her in slightly and kissed her lips. It was real, the emotion and passion that was in the kiss was all real and it was felt by both of them. Before too long both of them got carried away, still thinking they were together. But soon Sarah pulled away.

"There he is, go to the bar order something and catch a conversation with him. I'll be over in 5 and Chuck, go to Casey not the other barmen."

Chuck looked at Sarah, I think I know who to go to Sarah, I'm not stupid, Chuck thought to himself. He reluctantly let go of Sarah and walked over to the bar. Sarah popped to the ladies room. Chuck reached the bar; he noted Williams was drinking a smooth martini and ordered the same thing. Seconds later Chuck flashed on Williams. The information that flagged up was all the same to what Beckman had said, there was nothing new to report.

"Barman, can I have a smooth martini please."

"Coming up sir." Casey said in return.

Chuck ordering the martini caught Williams's attention.

"You're a drinker of martini's as well…..smooth martini's may I add."

"That I am. What can you find bad about this drink?"

"Nothing, that's why I like them."

Chuck smiled as he added, "Me too. I'm Charles Carmichael."

William's extended his hand at Chuck, Chuck in return took a hold and the two shook hands.

"Henry Cooper." Chuck and Casey tooknote of the name he gave, which was indeed an alias, which General Beckman had suspected earlier in the briefing.

"So you're the owner of this place. I'm sorry I didn't know."

"That's ok Charles, can I call you Charles?"

"Of course."

"Are you here alone, or do you have a lady on your arm?"

Just as Chuck was about to answer Sarah caught his eyes, he saw her exiting the toilets and he couldn't help but stare at her beauty. He quickly remembered he was on a mission.

"As a matter of fact I do have a lady on my arm. Here she is."

Sarah approached the two of them. Williams said, "Hello my dear."

He took a hold of Sarah's hand a lightly kissed it.

"Charles, she is a beauty. Where did you find her?"

Chuck laughed, as Sarah answered. "In fact I found him. I'm the lucky one here."

Behind Chuck's smile there was hurt. Sarah continued,

"We've been together for about 3 years. He's a wonderful man and he makes me feel like a queen everyday, don't you Chuck."

"I try my best sweetie. By the way, this is Henry Cooper, Henry this is Sarah my girlfriend."

The 3 engaged deeper into conversation. Slowly slowly Chuck began to fill up with frustration, he triedto keep a handle on things but it was harder that he had anticipated. Sarah praised him in everyway, using such beautiful words to describe him.

"Charles, Sarah please join me in my VIP suite. We'll carry on the party there."

As the 3 of them disappeared into the suite, Casey immediately called for back-up, he told them once at the nightclub they were to wait for his signal. Casey then set off in search of a way in without being noticed.

In the VIP suite……

Williams went over to his private bar within the suite and poured out smooth martini's. Sarah quickly whispered to Chuck,

"Casey will tell me over my earpiece when he's at the door. Afterwards, I will touch my right ear, that's when me and Casey will make the arrest."

Chuck nodded his head in agreement with Sarah. Williams came back with 3 smooth martinis and handed them over the Chuck and Sarah. They were once again engaged in conversation, then Williams took of his suit jacket and rolled up his shirt sleeves, which revealed a tattoo. The tattoo was a symbol of some sort; soon the tattoo caused Chuck to flash. This caught Williams's attention.

"Charles are you ok?

Sarah quickly responded, trying to cover up what just happened.

"He's epileptic. This happens sometimes………Chuck, Chuck don't worry you'll be fine. It's ok, I'm here."

Chuck then stopped flashing. He's related to the Winter brothers, the tattoo is a crest of some sort. Chuck had no way of telling Sarah of this new information. He then went along with the story with what Sarah just said.

"I'm fine Sarah. I hate it when I get those. Sorry you had to see that Henry."

"Don't apologize Charles. Your good now?

"Yes. I'm good."

10 minutes later Casey told Sarah over her ear piece he was right at the door. In unison, Casey entered holding a gun and Sarah jumped up and grabbed a hold of a gun that she had hiding in her purse.

"Good work you two. Henry Williams you're coming with me." Casey said.

With no way of getting out of this situation, William's knew he was caught. As Casey escorted William's out of the suite, Sarah followed on behind however she was pulled back by Chuck.

"Those things you were saying…was it real or was it just because we were on a mission."

Sarah signed heavily before answering Chuck, "Chuck….we've spoke about this."

"I have to know, please….?"

Sarah looked deep into Chuck brown eyes, she couldn't lie to him because then it would seem everything she felt for him was a lie. She still loved him dearly, and she was no longer mad at him, she had forgiven him for everything. But she couldn't give Chuck the answer he was looking for. Chuck hurted her deeply with his deceit, and because of that she shut down emotionally, trying not to public her emotions.

"Chuck, I'm not doing this ok."

Sarah tried to walk away once more, but again was pulled back by Chuck.

"Sarah, just tell me and I'll leave it. I'm not asking much of you."

"Take your hand of me Chuck."

Chuck let go of the grip he had on her. All the frustration he felt during this entire mission was about to pure out.

"You can't even answer me. I can't turn this off like you can; I'm not the cold hearted spy here. I'm Chuck Bartowski, man with feelings. Don't think I can just forget about all this."

"And what….just cause I'm a spy I don't have feelings. I'm warning you, don't you dare bring this up again Chuck, or else I will ask for a transfer."

"A transfer…….why would you say that if you weren't thinking about it."

Sarah hit a spot in Chuck, and after realising what she had just said she knew she hit him bad.

Chuck walked out of the suite but before going he said, "Oh and that man…he's related to the Winter brothers, he's their cousin." Chuck than continued on his way out. He stood outside for a few moments and afterwards dialled Morgan's number.

"Morgan, meet me at the Starry nightclub in 15 minutes. I'm in need of a drink."

Without receiving an answer from Morgan, Chuck ended the call and flagged down a cab.

"Get me to the Starry nightclub asap."
