A/N: So I tried to tie this in with the episode as best I could. Not sure how well I pulled that off, but I also needed to advance Anna's storyline as the season is rapidly drawing to a close. Oh! And for those that missed it, I've decided on the title of the first "episode" of my season 3 Anna AU. Well, I say AU, but it won't really be AU. It will work within canon, but it will paint a different picture for Anna than we were lead to believe in season 3. Anyway, the first episode will be called "Anna Versus the Dear John." The title should be pretty self-explanatory. Anyway, hope you dig the chapter, and please review. Thanks!
Anna freaked out just a little when the cal came in. She hadn't expected to hear back from the NSA. She thought they'd just let her fall by the wayside after taking her phone into Ft. Meade, and her history with the DEA coming to light. So when they called her and said they wanted to perform a second interview, she got scared.
Did they know what she knew? Had they somehow found out that she'd discovered Chuck and Casey's secret? But she shook it off, convinced herself that there was no way they could know, and she got dressed in her most professional looking outfit, and went to the interview.
And it actually went quite well. The man conducting the interview, a Colonel Johnson didn't really tip his cards at all, but Anna answered every one of his questions confidently, and she thought she put herself across quite well.
The only problem now was, what would she do if she was actually offered a job? Being a spy probably wouldn't be a boon for her relationship with Morgan. And it certainly wouldn't help her keep Morgan away from Chuck and all the craziness he apparently had going on in his life. If anything, Anna working for the NSA would put Morgan in more danger. No, that simply wouldn't do.
She made up her mind then. She was committed to Morgan first. He had to be the most important thing in any decision she would make, because he was already the most important thing in her world. So, yeah, if the NSA called back, she'd politely decline. It was the only rational decision she could see to make.
But then, she could do a lot of good for everyone, the entire country, Morgan included if she accepted the offer. She could save lives, and make the world safer. And true, she'd have to lie to Morgan about what she was doing, but it would be okay. She'd have a loving partner at home, and a fulfilling job (finally). So, yeah, she would accept the job offer, if it came, but only if she got to stay with Morgan. And only if the NSA stayed away from him. Only if Chuck stayed away from him.
Anna's phone rang. It was Morgan. Apparently, she needed to come into work, and he wanted her to dress professionally. Well, she already had that covered. She wouldn't even have to change after her interview.
She kind of wondered just what Morgan could be up to. Why would he want her dressed professionally? Oh Morgan, always up to something. That's why Chuck was dangerous. Anna knew it was only a matter of time before Morgan stumbled on something that could get him hurt. So, yeah, hopefully the job offer would come soon, and she could get her stipulations taken care of. Get her boyfriend taken care of.
God, Anna missed the days when her life was simple.
A/N: Okay, that's it for now. I'm really going to try to wrap this up in a hurry, and then I'm going to try to get the Anna AU done before S4 airs. You guys are awesome. Peace.
