Chapter 6

Getting out of the Porsche and walking into the hall that overlooked the apartment of the people she loved, Sarah visualized Ellie and Devon leaving the apartment. After the latest events, the marriage of the woman he considered a friend and perhaps one day hoped to be able to call sister, was slightly overshadowed.

With regret, she searched in her mind for a possible excuse to give to the couple who had welcomed her into the house as a family member. Sure Devon had discovered Chuck's secret, she and Casey, she also knew she had kept it, but the fact remains that she was really sorry she had told them so many lies and kept secrets. "

Hi Sarah, Chuck told me you're back at the hotel, Devon and I are leaving for our honeymoon, what are you 2 going to do now?"

"Hi, Ellie, I had forgotten things, I'm happy for you, I would never leave you without saying goodbye".

Ellie hugs Sarah with affection, the doctor truly considered her as a sister and with her Chuck finally got out of that whirlwind of negative emotions that accompanied him from Stanford, "I'm so happy, Devon and I took the plunge, maybe you and Chuck the futures."

Hiding her frightened air, Sarah leaves Ellie's embrace to go say goodbye to Devon, who promptly welcomed her in a hug. "Hi Sarah, look after Chuck and keep him out of trouble."

"Don't worry Devon, I will, rather think about enjoying your honeymoon and making Ellie happy." The blonde smiled to the doctor. "It will be my first thought". After saying goodbye, enter to the house.

Chuck was struggling with his computer, after checking the files and making sure the squad agents are clean, he reads his father's email.

"Sorry son if I ran away without saying goodbye, but as you know given my identity, I had to run away just after the party, I still hope you are all fine and you managed to save Bryce and the intersect from the Ring. As soon as you can contact me, I need to talk to you and I have to ask to give me back the wrist computer, if people saw you around with it, they would start asking too many questions ".

Deciding to put Beckman's files aside, she replies to her father, she needs to organize the day. Today he also has to say goodbye to Morgan, and in the evening a national security team would come to take him away. "

Hi dad, I'm fine, we managed to save Bryce and the cube. Unfortunately there was a small problem, which I need to talk to you privately. See you today at the Malibu beach around 4.00 pm ". By clicking on the button, send the e-mail to the father. He hears footsteps approaching the door, quickly moves his e-mail before anyone can enter.

The door opens and Sarah enters, looks at her and gives her one of her Bartowski smiles and is delighted when Sarah answers her with a smile. "How's Bryce? Has he recovered or is his life in danger? "thunders the boy worried about his friend.

"He's fine, he woke up this morning, the doctors said he's out of danger and he'll recover, what were you doing here sitting on your bed all alone?" she asks with a smile. "

Or was I just going through some files Beckaman sent me ! You know being the only intersect again, the general asked me to check out some members of the agency, who will pick me up tonight to take me to Washington, "he replied with a smile.

Sarah looks at Chuck with a scared expression, he notices it, but he doesn't know why she is so afraid.

"Chuck why did you find the intersect? With all the effort we made to remove it from your head ! I thought you wanted to go back to having a normal life, how you ever did. Do you have any idea what's going to happen now? They will come to get you to take you to train ! "says the blonde in an anguished tone.

"I know I said those phrases, but Sarah I am here wishing for a normal life, when you are here to risk your life every day to defend civilians and the innocent, who am I to be able to deny my back to my country and what I care most about. If I hadn't found the intersect, Bryce, you and Casey would be dead, the ring would have the intersect, my father's creation used to hurt and in no time we would all be dead ! I couldn't allow this to happen and I couldn't allow all of you to die ! ".

Tears of admiration and love begin to fall from Sarah's eyes, still the hero, but she knows what it would mean to her soul. When he was about to speak, I knock on the door. Chuck got up to open it, it was Morgan.

"Sorry guys, am I disturbing you? Or I see you're busy, I'll wait outside. "He started to close the door, but Sarah stopped him, surprising both Morgan and Chuck.

"Quiet Morgan Chuck and I were just talking" "Okay, it won't take long, I just said goodbye to Devon and Ellie, I just wanted say hello to you and Chuck, I tried to say hello to Casey, but he slammed the door in my face ".

"Are you leaving already, friend?" Chuck asks a little surprised.

"Yes, you know Anna and I have decided to leave immediately, it makes no sense to wait, after all Ellie and Devon are leaving and I know that you are leaving too, so there is no point in postponing". Chuck holds Morgan in a warm embrace, for the first time in more than twenty years he and his best friend were separating. "

"I understand buddy, yes happy for you and for Anna, always chase your dreams"

"I know Chuck, yes you are happy too and chase your dreams".

Morgan leaves Chuck and hugs Sarah. "Hi Sarah, please be careful with Chuck, I entrust him to you, you are the best person to take care of him, I'm sure Chuck will not disappoint you".

"Hi Morgan, rest assured that I will. I'm happy you too in Hawaii". With that said Morgan walked out the door.

"I'll miss him," Chuck says with a sigh. Looking straight in the eyes Sarah began to speak. "Looks like we've been interrupted another time, where we left off," smiled at the blonde federal.

"Chuck, we could run away, you and me, I want to go back to being a normal person, do you want to run away with me?"

Chuck was delighted that Sarah was asking her to escape, but at the same time he thought about the consequences this action could cause. "I'm so happy you are asking me to escape, but how can we escape knowing that what's in my brain can save a lot of lives! I can't just escape, I can do something useful for me and for the world, Chuck Bartowski can finally be someone and not be ashamed of himself when he gets up in the morning, we can do great things as a team, together " "There is nothing real in all this Chuck" taking his hand, draws him to her to kiss him "this is real" and she kisses him passionately, but he doesn't respond. "

It's not the kiss I expected".

"Sorry I can't" was the only thing Chukc managed to say.

Sarah's heart broke, of all the things that had happened to her in life, she would never have expected Chuck, with all the times he had professed his love to her, to reject her. In desperation "sorry, I have to go" and walks out the door, walking towards the exit with tears filling her face.
