A/N: Well here is the next chapter. You'll all be happy that the reunion is coming in the next chapter. I hope you guys continue to enjoy this story. I don't own Chuck.
Chuck heard a noise and looked up to see Morgan approaching the Nerd Herd counter. Morgan smiled as he walked up to Chuck. "You ready for our big night on the town Chuck?"
"Morgan, where exactly are we going tonight?" Morgan walked to the back side of the counter where Chuck was sitting and explained the itinerary that he had planned for the evening. "First we're going to Fantasia Billiards where we can grab a bite to eat and shoot a little pool, then we'll head over to Boulevard3 for some dancing with some of the fine woman of Burbank and once everyone is quite intoxicated we'll go to Dimples, which should be hilarious since it's a karaoke bar."
Chuck stared at Morgan for a second and asked "Tell me again, why I agreed to go out with you guys." Morgan chuckled as he grabbed Chuck by the shoulders.
"You my friend are the honey."
"Morgan, what in the world are you talking about?"
"Chuck, the way your built now, the woman flock to you like bee's to honey and me and the rest of your not so fortunate coworkers are hoping that maybe, one of those woman will have enough to drink, that one of us can get lucky and…well you can figure out the rest."
"So, basically you guys are just using me to get woman?"
"Well, when you put it like that, I guess we are but you know that I really do enjoy getting to hang out with my best bud. I may just enjoy a little side benefit from our friendship."
Chuck wasn't really mad or upset at Morgan, he had to agree with him on the subject in regards to all the attention woman gave him, since he had started working out. The thought made him sad, he may of changed his appearance but he was the same person on the inside. The women never gave him the attention they do now, even though he was still the same person. It was hard to trust a woman when you knew that she wouldn't have given you the time of day two and a half years ago, but now she couldn't keep her hands off of you.
"What time is all this supposed to take place Morgan?" "I figured we good get to pool hall around six and that would give the night club a chance to get rocking before we arrive. I also figured that we should be feeling little to no pain, by the time we go to the karaoke bar. That way no one will worry about being nervous or intimidated to get up and sing. The best part is, Skip said he would be the designated driver tonight, so we can drink without worrying about driving drunk."
Morgan walked away and Chuck sat there in deep thought, maybe it wouldn't be so bad tonight. Hell, it had been along time since he had gone out and had some fun. He decided that he would still have a good time but would monitor his drinking, someone had to keep their head clear with this bunch and he figured he was the best candidate for the job.
Chuck never noticed Casey standing off to the side of the Nerd Herd counter in one of the dvd isles. After hearing the conversation between Chuck and Morgan, Casey brought out his phone and dialed a familiar number. When the person on the other end answered, Casey said "I just thought you might like to know, Bartowski and a bunch of the Buy More morons are going out clubbing tonight and I just thought you'd want to know." He passed on the time and places that they were going.
"Thanks Casey" and with that Sarah hung up the phone. Great she thought, Chuck out in public with a bunch of drunken women fawning all over him. She would be at these places tonight and she knew that she needed to keep her emotions in check. Her time was getting near to confronting Chuck with her return and she didn't want jealousy to ruin any of her plans. She would be with them tonight but it was time to break out one her dark wigs and brown contacts. Sarah Walker would be at the same places as Chuck tonight and she would make sure that he would never know it was her.
At around six o'clock Skip pulled into the parking lot of Fantasia Billiards. Chuck exited the vehicle with Morgan, Jeff, Lester and the rest of the crew from the Buy More and headed to the front doors. As soon as they got in the door, they noticed several women along with a few guys, checking Chuck out. Jeff looked around at the others, "This is going to be a rocking night, I just have a feeling." Chuck was feeling a little different then Jeff was, he had noticed the woman checking him out when he walked in and knew this whole night was going to be about keeping his clothes on and the women's hands off of him.
Chuck never noticed the brunette woman sitting all the way in the back of the bar but she sure as hell noticed him. Sarah couldn't stop looking in Chuck's direction, he was wearing a white v-neck, short sleeved shirt that showed off his well muscled upper body. With Chuck being so large, the shirt looked like a second skin on him. She let her eyes take in Chuck's lower half and could see that he had on a nice pair of semi faded jeans that just hugged his ass and thighs. This was going to be a lot tougher then she had originally thought. She could swear that the temperature had gone up at least ten degrees in the past minute and a half. It was going to be a long night.
Morgan had found them a table that was near the pool tables so they could play a few games while waiting for their meals. The waitress came over and immediately went to Chuck. She practical drooled on him as she took his order. She wrote down what everyone else wanted while never taking her eyes off of Chuck and then told them that she would be right back with their drinks.
While waiting for their meal, Chuck decided to shoot a round of pool with Morgan. Sarah watched as Chuck bent over the table to make shot after shot. Damn he has a fine ass, she thought to herself. Then out of the corner of her eye she noticed a shapely blonde working her way to the table that Chuck was playing on. She could see that the blonde had one thing on her mind and that was Chuck. In a way, she couldn't blame her, hell that's all Sarah had on her mind. She watched as the blond approached Chuck and attempted to start a conversation with him. She could see that Chuck was trying to be polite and not just blow off the girl but kept having to back up as the girl would get in his personal space. Just when the girl started to reach up and touch Chuck's right bicep and forearm, their meals arrived. Morgan looked at the girl and told her that he would be glad to show her how to play pool when they were done eating. The blonde looked at Morgan like he had a third head and turned back to Chuck, "I'd love it if you could give me lessons in how to play pool. I know there are certain ways to holdthe stick and to maneuver the ballsaround the table to get them to go into the holethat you want." Chuck turned three shades of red and couldn't think of a single thing to say to the blonde's last statement. She got on her toes and gave Chuck a small kiss on the cheek and handed him her number. Call me sometime and then she turned and walked away.
Sarah had to use every ounce of self control to not grab the blonde skank and beat her to a pulp. Oh, but the satisfaction she would get from it was almost worth the risk of getting caught by Chuck.
After about an hour, Chuck and the whole Buy More crew were finished eating and decided to head over to club Boulevard3.
Sarah had figured they were close to leaving and decided to leave about ten minutes before them. She wanted to get to into the club before they arrived. As Sarah entered the club, she noticed that this had to be a popular club because it was packed. She thought to herself, this was going to be a nightmare once Chuck arrived. He was going to be surrounded by a ton of drunk, horny, college aged women. Take a deep breath she told herself. In with the good air, out with the bad. She repeated this several times and thought, I need a drink.
When Chuck and the rest of the guys arrived, the bouncers at the front door had stopped Morgan and the others. When they saw that Chuck was with them, they shook Chuck's hand like he was their best friend and allowed the whole group in. Chuck new it had to do with his size but he did he didn't care. It got them in the door without any waiting. As they entered the club, the thumping beat of the music reverberated off the walls and Chuck could feel it in his chest as they made their way further into the club. Chuck was really feeling out his element, he new that women who had been drinking were going to be a lot more forward then the women he had been dealing with on a daily basis and he knew, drunk women didn't have any problem letting you know exactly what they wanted.
This was going to be an interesting evening to say the least. They made their way over to an area that had a pair of tall tables that allowed you to place your drinks on, while you stood around.
Sarah new the minute Chuck walked in. She watched as he moved through the club and could tell by his body language, that Chuck was not comfortable at all. It made Sarah smile, she new with out a shadow of a doubt that Chuck hadn't changed one bit from the lovable nerd she had known two and a half years ago. As the night went on, she watched as girl after girl tried to work their magic on Chuck and she smiled, as Chuck turned down everyone of them. She noticed that a group of girls had come to the guys table and Sarah watched as Chuck reluctantly headed towards the dance floor along with all the guys from the Buy More. When they made it to the dance floor, Chuck ended up being surrounded by the group of girls and Sarah watched as other girls made their way over to Chuck's group and watched as they all tried to work their way in closer to Chuck.
What surprised Sarah the most was Chuck's dancing skills had greatly improved since they had gone dancing on their first date. She had to admit, he had some moves and it definitely was having a positive affect on her along with the group of women that were dancing around him. Sarah had her fair share of offers and she had no problem sending the guys on their way with their tails tucked between their legs. Sarah noticed that Chuck's group was working their way towards the door and new that Chuck must of had his fill of dancing. She new where they were heading next so she wasn't worried as they made their way to the exit.
Chuck had been to Dimples before and knew that it would be a more comfortable atmosphere then the last two places they had been. As they entered the front door, they found a few tables that were in the far corner and ordered drinks as they all took a seat.
Sarah arrived and as she walked towards the front door, she could see Chuck's group sitting in the corner on the right side, so she headed to the left side which to her satisfaction was dimly lit.
Morgan asked who wanted to go on stage first when their turn came around? He didn't get any takers from the group, so he said he would go up first. When it came time, Morgan walked on stage. He found the song he was looking for and announced to the crowd that he would be singing Fat Bottom Girls by Queen.
Sarah was surprised by Morgan's singing. he wasn't half bad and she tapped her foot to the beat as Morgan sang the entire song. He ended up receiving a decent applause from the crowd. She watched as Morgan puffed out his chest as he walked off the stage.
Next up was Jeff and Lester, as they made their way to the stage and it was quite obvious as they stumbled several times that they had probably consumed way past their limits of alcohol which for Jeff had to be a lot. They found the song they wanted and announced that they would be singing I'm To Sexy by Right Said Fred. Lester of course, had to try and move in what he thought was sexy moves but ended up looking like he was having a seizure.
Sarah couldn't stop laughing as she watched the display put on by Jeffster and was almost sad when the song came to an end. She hadn't laughed that hard in a long time. Sarah looked over and could see Chuck downing a beer and as soon as he finished it, he started on another one. Is he thinking of getting up there and singing Sarah asked herself? She figured there was no way Chuck would ever do that and found out she was wrong as she watched him walk up onto the stage.
Chuck got up on stage and scanned through the songs until he found the one song he was looking for. He looked to the crowd and said " I'm going to sing Angel Eyes by The Jeff Healy Band.
Sarah sat, looking intently at the stage as the music started to play. What she heard next took her breath away. It was the sound of a beautiful voice and it was coming from none other then Chuck.
Girl, you're looking, fine tonight,
and every guy has got you in his sights.
What you're doing, with a clown like,
is surely one of life's little, mysteries
So tonight I'll ask the stars above,
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do?
What did I say,
to turn your angel eyes my way?
Sarah was unable to stop the flow of tears that were running over cheeks as Chuck continued on with the song.
Well, I'm the guy who never learned to dance,
never even got one second glance
across a crowded room was close enough,
I could look but I could never touch.
So tonight I'll ask, the stars above,
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do?
What did I say,
to turn your angel eyes my way?
Sarah's heart was bursting with pride as the sound of Chuck's voice filled the entire bar.
Don't anyone wake me,
if it's just a dream
Cause she's the best thing,
ever happened to me
All you fellows, you can look all you like,
but this girl you see, she's leaving here with me tonight
There's just one more thing that I need to know,
if this is love why does it scare me so?
It must be something only you can see,
cause girl I feel it when you look at me
So tonight I'll ask the stars above,
"How did I ever win your love?"
What did I do?
What did I say,
to turn your angel eyes my way?
hey, hey, hey yeah, awww.
Sarah was floored, she had just experienced the most touching and heart warming performance she had ever seen. She watched as everyone in the bar stood up and gave Chuck a standing ovation including her. He had a beautiful voice and yet she had never heard him sing before. That would be changing in the future. She made a decision at that very moment and slid the wig off and remove the contacts.
Chuck had finished the song and was surprised by the standing ovation he received. As he made his way to the edge of the stage he found a large group of woman that gathered near the edge of the stage. He came down the steps and was swarmed by the the group. He was handed napkins, cards and even a pair of some girls underwear which all had phone numbers on them. As Chuck tried to get through the group of females he felt someone from the right side place another piece of paper into his palm and then give his hand a small squeeze.
Chuck turned and just froze. He was staring straight into the most beautiful cobalt blue eyes he had ever seen and there was only one person he knew that had eyes like that. He looked into the face of an angel and spoke the angels name, "Sarah?"
"Hello Chuck.
