Hey guys, here's the promised last chapter I told you about in Chapter 4. Thanks for all the love and support that you guys have given me! 3 This wasn't how I imagined the ending, but I think that it turned out pretty well. :)

I feel like the show addressed Chuck's insecurities really well, but not Sarah's. I know that Chuck's insecurities are mostly gone now, but I think that there's still a lot of deep-seeded stuff that hasn't been shown. So this is what this chapter and this whole story is about. Warning: Really cheesy ending. ;)

Disclaimer: I do not own Chuck nor any of the characters. If I did, Chuck would've gone on forever and ever. :)

P.S: Is it just me or does Yvonne Strahovski look so similar to Kaley Cuoco from The Big Bang Theory?


Sarah Walker-Bartowski paced around the hotel room as she glanced at the clock again. It's been three hours since Chuck had stormed out of the restaurant and disappeared. He had disabled his watch's and his phone's GPS and gone off the grid.

'She was starting to sound like he was going rogue.' Sarah shook her head and sat down on the corner of the bed. 'What if something had happened to him?'

'No!' Sarah couldn't afford to think like that. Chuck was going to come back. He always did.

Sarah must've had dozed off because one second she was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for her husband and the next, she found herself lying down, her eyes opening blearily.

The sound of the hotel room's door closing slowly dragged her back to reality. She looked towards the window and found that it was still dark outside.

"Chuck!"

Quickly, she brushed back the covers and rushed over to him. Her arms automatically wrapped around his neck as she whispered, "I was so worried."

"I'm fine," Chuck said, "sorry, I worried you. I just needed some time to myself; to figure things out. Sorry, I woke you. Go back to sleep, we can talk tomorrow."

Sarah pulled away from him, slowly and caressed her hand over his cheek. He didn't seem like himself.

"Chuck, what's wrong?"

"Sarah-"

"No, Chuck, tell me what's wrong. I'm your wife, that's what you do. You tell me things that you don't tell anyone else. You're the one that told me that before, remember?"

Chuck took a sigh and conceded. He took off his shoes and peeled his jacket from his shoulders and slumped onto the bed as Sarah sat beside him.

"I saw a ghost today." Chuck bluntly stated.

"We all saw one, Chuck."

He took another sigh and closed his eyes. He felt her hands wrap around his as she said, "Chuck, you can tell me." Her voice was soft and warm and he felt terrible for worrying Sarah so much.

"It's Bryce."

Unbelief etched the features on her face as she sarcastically replied, "No..."

A smile appeared on his face for the first time in the last couple of hours. Sarah mirrored the smile and all her worries melted away for a second. It was amazing how after a year of marriage, his smile still gave her butterflies, stilled her heart, and made her at ease.

His voice turned serious and was full of worry and sadness, "I can't help but feel that Bryce is gonna take you away from me again. It seems like every time we're in good standing either him or Shaw or the Intersect get in the way. I can't help but think, 'How long will we last?' "

For the second time this night, unbelief laced her voice. "Do you seriously believe that after all we've gone through to be together that I would leave you for Bryce? And that after all we've been through, that I wouldn't- you wouldn't- let anything come between us?"

When he didn't respond, Sarah continued, "I love you, Chuck. Nothing is ever going to change that."

She tried to look into Chuck's eyes, but to no avail. "Chuck, look at me."

He avoided her eyes further.

Sarah took a sigh and tried a different approach to comfort him. "Chuck, I know you have a lot of insecurities stemming from Bryce and Shaw and the Intersect and I know that you know that I have a lot of insecurities too. I know that being with me caused a lot of insecurities too because you think that you're out of my league, but you're wrong, Chuck. You're exactly my type."

Chuck finally looked at her, "Your type is tall, dark, and caring?"

Sarah laughed. She remembered that moment in his kitchen and the moment after that. 'Oh, what a kiss that was.'

"Yes."

"I thought your type were heroes."

"How many times do I have to tell you that you are a hero for you to get it through your thick skull, Chuck?"

He shrugged.

"Why do you think you're out of my league, Chuck?"

He turned his body towards her and honestly replied, "Because you are. You're beautiful and sexy and smart and amazing and I'm a nerd who works at the Buy More. If you never were assigned to me, then we never would've met. If you saw me on the street, you wouldn't give me a second thought."

"You're right, Chuck."

"Gee, thanks for the support."

Sarah gave a little laugh and responded, "No, I mean that if I was never assigned to you then we never would've met. But maybe we would have. If our pasts weren't so messed up, you would probably be the next Bill Gates or Steve Jobs and I would've never joined the CIA. I probably would be in jail with my father right now."

"I guess…"

"And Chuck, you're not just a nerd who works at the Buy More. You're handsome and sexy and incredibly brilliant." She shifted herself to sit cross-legged in front of him and continued, "You're also sweet and loyal and caring and loving and wonderful. You're the best man any woman can ever ask for and you have all the characteristics that a man should have. Being tall, dark, and caring is a rare combo, Chuck."

"You're just saying that to make me feel better and because you love me."

Sarah gave him a little smile. "You're right, but that doesn't make it any less true. You may feel that you don't deserve me and I deserve better, but that's way-off. The truth is that I don't deserve you and I have no idea what I did to deserve you. I said it in my vows and I'll say it again, you're a gift and every day, I will show you that you're a gift that I deserve."

Chuck gives her the most sincere look that she's ever seen and says to her, "Oh, Sarah… I love you."

She gives him a smile of her own and replies, "I love you too, Chuck. Bryce Larkin has nothing on you."

"I-" He starts, but there's no words that can be put into this moment, so he just repeats, "I love you."

Sarah's love was enough for him and now, he definitively knew that his love was enough for her too. And somewhere in the deep recesses of his mind, he knew that that had been true all along, but he'd been a fool to have ever doubted her love for him.
