A/N I'm trying to start keeping my chapters to the 3,000 - 4,000 word range to make it easier to read. This last chapter I've been writing was getting very long, so I've actually broken it down into 3 chapters, Here is the next part. Warning: It gets very steamy in the steam room. ;) Thanks for reading and please let me know what you think.

Chapter 10

On the way up to the penthouse, they stopped by the gymnasium to check out the facilities. They were very happy to find that while there were separate small locker rooms the equipment, sauna, pool, Jacuzzi and steam room were for everyone. They were also happy to note that they were alone.

So, Chuck and Sarah hurried up to the penthouse and jumped in the shower. Somehow, they managed to keep their hands mostly to themselves and were able to leave the shower without making love because they knew what was going to happen in a few minutes. At least they hoped so.

Sarah wrapped a large towel around her body and tucked it in just below her shoulders. Chuck wrapped a towel around his waist and they both put on a terry cloth robe. Grabbing the key card and two bottles of water, they headed to the gymnasium. When they arrived they were surprised to find that the steam room wasn't empty. The biggest surprise however, was that the other people in the steam room were none other than Devon and Ellie. They were naked and they were making love.

Chuck cried out, "Oh my. I didn't need to see that. My eyes, my eyes."

Ellie, who was straddling Devon, said "Don't freak out little brother. Why don't you stand guard for us and later we'll stand guard for you."

Devon said, "Yeah bro. I don't want to lose my mojo."

"OK" said Sarah with amusement in her voice. "We'll stand guard."

Chuck and Sarah hurried outside and Sarah was laughing. "What's so funny?"

"Just think, they could have just as easily walked in on us."

"I'm sorry for freaking out like that. It is my sister, you know."

"That's OK, Chuck. It will probably happen to us one day. We might forget to lock the door and one of our kids might walk in."

"Kids, Sarah. I want kids too. How many do you want?"

"Ten sounds like a nice round number."

Chuck almost choked on the water he was starting to drink. "Ten?"

"Just kidding, Chuck. But I always thought two of each would be perfect, especially if one of the boys looks just like his dad. He can be a Chuck Jr."

"Sounds good to me, especially if one of the girls looks just like you. But I'm not so sure about naming him Chuck Jr."

"I thought men liked the idea of a junior named after him."

"Many may want that sweetheart, but I'm not sure I'm one of them."

"It's not something we need to worry about right now. You need to marry me first anyway."

"Trust me, honey, there's nothing in this world I want more than to marry you."

"I feel the same way Chuck. I know you want to surprise me and make a big occasion out of it. That would be wonderful, sweetheart, but please don't let the surprise get in the way of actually asking me."

Chuck smiled at her and said, "I won't."

Chuck and Sarah were sitting on a bench outside of the steam room and they leaned in and kissed each other. What started out as a tender, chaste kiss quickly became heated. Chuck reached behind Sarah's neck and Sarah did the same as they pulled each other in for an ever deepening kiss. They became lost in their own little world and Chuck's hand reached inside Sarah's robe and pulled down her towel and it fell to Sarah's waist. He began caressing her soft skin with his fingertips bringing a chill down Sarah's spine. Sarah reached into Chuck's robe and ran her hands up and down his chest. When she got to his waist, she tugged on the towel and it fell away. As her fingers travelled down Chuck's body, the door to the steam room opened and Ellie and Devon walked out.

Ellie smirked at Chuck and Sarah as they had yet to realize they were being watched. She cleared her throat loudly and said "Couldn't wait, huh. Turn about's fair play." Chuck and Sarah both looked up but neither moved their hands from their current location.

Devon said "Care to take it to the steam room? It's all yours."

Chuck and Sarah just nodded and rewrapped their robes around themselves and stood up. They picked up their towels and went inside.

"Have fun you two," Ellie called out.

"Don't do anything I wouldn't do," said Devon.

That got a chuckle from Sarah and Chuck. They hung their robes on the hooks on the wall in an alcove just inside the door but outside the steam room and they stepped inside, not bothering to put the towels back on. They spread some towels on the wooden bench and sat down next to each other. Chuck looked over at Sarah and smiled and she returned it. They leaned in and shared a kiss and as both started to perspire from the heat and steam. Chuck admired the beauty that was sitting next to him as the sweat started dripping down from her chin and on down to her chest and then her legs. Sarah was glistening from her perspiration and Chuck looked lovingly at her. Sarah looked over at Chuck and admired his muscular form and the perspiration dripping off his body. Chuck leaned over and kissed Sarah's cheek, then chin and down her neck, tasting the saltiness of her skin from the sweat. He kissed down her shoulder and arm, all the way down to her fingers. He set her hand on his thigh and picked up her other hand and again starting at her shoulder kissed that one all the way down to her fingers. When finished with that hand, he put that hand on his thigh too and he moved his legs so he was straddling the bench, and Sarah turned to face him, also straddling the bench. Sarah looked down at Chuck's manhood and reached out and took him in her hands. She stroked him gently and said "Time to lie down, sweetheart." He did what he was told and he put a stack of towels under his head as a pillow.

Sarah said, "Close your eyes and relax. I love you Chuck. Let me take care of you." Chuck smiled and just nodded, having a hard time believing that the most beautiful woman in the world loved him and was taking care of him. Sarah got on her hands and knees and leaned over Chuck to kiss him gently on the lips. His eyes popped open and he said "I love you too, Sarah." Sarah smiled and kissed him again gently and when he reached out and touched her breasts, she put her hands over his and pulled them away and kissed each hand and lay them at his sides. "I love it when you do that sweetie, but please just lie there and relax and let me take care of you for right now." Chuck smiled and nodded.

Sarah went back and kissed Chuck gently again and this time he obeyed her wishes and just lay there. "Good," she said. She kissed Chuck's lips again and then trailed a path down his neck to his shoulders and onto his chest. She peppered kisses all over his chest and down to his stomach and lower abdomen. She continued kissing down his body and down his right leg to his foot and then up from his left foot to his left leg and back to his abdomen. Once there, Sarah kissed her way over to his manhood and began to pleasure him using her lips and tongue and mouth. "Oh Saraaaaaaah… Oh Saaaarrraaaaaaah." Sarah smiled inwardly as she loved to please her man. After a few more minutes, Chuck said "Oh Saaaaaaaaarrrraaaaaaaaaah." Knowing he was getting close she applied pressure so he would wait a little longer. "Not yet, my love, I'm not quite finished with you." Sarah stood up and moved forward and reached behind her to resume pleasuring him. When she was straddling Chuck's lips, she slowly lowered herself down until she made contact with him. Chuck's eyes popped open and Sarah gently scolded him. "Eyes closed Chuck. You need to do a little something for me. Remember, no hands right now and keep your eyes closed." Chuck eagerly responded with his tongue and lips to bring her to the edge. "Wow, sweetheart, you sure are good at that." She lifted up and slid backwards until she was above him. "Are you ready Chuck?" He nodded vigorously and Sarah smiled. She lowered herself until he was all the way in. "I love you Chuck. You can use your hands now." Chuck smiled and he reached out and caressed her breasts for a minute. "I really do love it when you do that to me sweetie." Chuck smiled and surprised Sarah by sitting up and wrapping his arms around her and lifting her up, staying inside her. He then turned her around and laid her on her back on the bench and she wrapped her legs tightly around him. In perfect rhythm, Chuck and Sarah moved together until they came to the edge and then over the edge as they enjoyed an intense climax.

They panted together while they tried to cool down, which was impossible in the steam room. Their glistening bodies were covered in perspiration. Chuck smiled broadly and said "Thank you sweetheart. That was beyond wonderful. You can take care of me any time you want." Sarah grinned and said "Oh, I intend to. I'm glad I was able to please you. You take such good care of me, I want to do the same for you." Chuck laughed "I think we're going to have a great life together. I want to do everything I can to please you and you want to do everything you can to please me." Sarah smiled and kissed him hard. "Oh, I know we're going to have a great life together."

They decided they better get some cooler air and put on their robes and went outside the steam room. Ellie and Devon had decided to hop naked into the Jacuzzi as it was near the steam room door.

Devon called out "It's about time you came out of there. We were afraid you might get overheated."

Ellie smirked "From the looks on their faces, they definitely got overheated, but not from the steam room."

Chuck and Sarah looked embarrassed for a moment and then laughed along. "Thanks for keeping look out for us."

"No worries Chuckster. No need to worry as no one else has come by. Do you want to join us?"

Sarah said "Actually we need to cool off. The pool looks rather inviting."

Ellie said "That's what we did first. Join us afterward."

Sarah looked embarrassed for a moment.

Ellie said "Don't worry. We're doctors. We're not going to see anything we haven't already seen. When you go to medical school, you're going to see all kinds of things too."

Sarah laughed. "I guess you're right."

So, Chuck and Sarah dropped their robes and dove into the pool. While they swam around, sharing some kisses, Ellie and Devon got out of the Jacuzzi and decided to join them in the pool. After they dove in, Sarah looked questioningly at them.

"We were getting a little warm too."

The two couples swam around naked in the pool and decided to have a chicken fight. Ellie climbed on Devon's shoulders and Sarah on Chuck's. It would have been a spectacular sight for someone if they would have walked in right then. Two beautiful naked women were trying to push the other off their man's shoulders. The battle was pretty evenly matched but eventually Sarah's superior strength won out as she was a professional athlete. Ellie wanted to try best two out of three, so they went at it again. This time Chuck got too close to Devon and he tripped Chuck which caused Sarah to fall. For the third battle Chuck made sure he stayed far enough away and when Sarah got a firm grip on Ellie's right wrist, Chuck stepped quickly to his left causing Ellie's arm to go behind her back. From that position, all it took was for Chuck to push Devon to the right, causing him to drop Ellie in the water. Sarah raised her arms in victory as Ellie spluttered to the surface. "Think you're pretty hot there Sarah Bartowski? Let's see about that." Ellie proceeded to start splashing Sarah, which also hit Chuck in the face. This caused Chuck to let go of Sarah's legs and cover his face and give him a chance to splash back. Without Chuck holding on Sarah flipped backward into the water and came up spluttering, which led to a rip roaring water fight. Sarah came behind Chuck and wrapped one arm around him and hid behind him while splashing back. Ellie thought that was a good idea and hid behind Devon. That meant the two men were getting splashed the most, but neither minded as it meant that both had their beautiful naked girlfriends' bodies pressed against their backs. After a few more minutes of splashing they climbed out of the pool and went back in the Jacuzzi.

The two couples relaxed in the warm water for a long while until they felt like prunes. Chuck and Devon got out first and picked up some dry towels for their ladies. Chuck held a towel out for Sarah as his blonde goddess emerged from the Jacuzzi and wrapped her in it. Devon couldn't help but watch as Sarah climbed out. Wow, Devon thought. Chuck is a really lucky guy. As Ellie climbed out he was reminded just how beautiful Ellie was too and he thought Chuck may be a really lucky guy, but so am I. He wrapped Ellie in a towel and planted a big kiss on her. "What was that for, Devon?" "I'm just so glad we're going to be a family." Ellie beamed and said, "So am I."

They all decided to stretch out on the chaise lounges by the side of the pool for a bit. Chuck asked Devon, "How's your frat brother doing in the short track speed skating?"

"He's doing well. He's made it to the semis in the 1,500 meters and the finals in the 1,000. Sorry we're going to miss your quarter final game, Chuck."

"That's OK Devon. You've seen a lot of my games already. Hopefully you'll get to see me in the gold medal game."

Ellie said "We hope so too. It looks like you could face the Russians in the semi-final."

"It's sure looking that way. It'll be a tough game but one we can win."

"Hey Sarah, can you watch your man without freaking out this time," Ellie teased.

"Probably not if he gets injured again. I know it's a possibility, but I don't want anything bad to happen to him."

"No one does, Sarah. Your mom will be there, right?"

"Yes. She'll help calm me down if needed."

"You look tired Sarah. A little too much fun tonight?"

"Are you kidding? Tonight was a blast. I never thought a naked chicken fight in the pool could be so much fun. Especially since we won."

"Competitive are we? Ellie smirked.

"Very" Sarah laughed.

They looked over at their men and saw that they were falling asleep.

"One more skinny dip in the pool before we leave?" asked Ellie.

"One more dip," said Sarah.

The stood up and jumped in and swam a few more laps and stopped to talk by the side of the pool. By now Sarah and Ellie had grown so comfortable with each other that they felt like they could share anything and the fact that they were both naked was of no concern.

"You look really, really happy, Sarah."

Sarah beamed back. "I really, really am. I can't believe everything that has happened over the last eight or nine days. Winning the gold medal was a dream come true, but meeting your brother and falling head over heels in love with him is far beyond my wildest dreams. I'm also glad he has a terrific sister."

Ellie smiled back. "I'm so happy for you and my brother that you found each other. I'm glad we've become such good friends and I can't wait to have you as my sister."

"Me, too," Ellie.

They looked over at their men. "I think it's time I get Chuck up to bed. He has practice tomorrow."

"Good idea, Sarah. Make sure Chuck gets his rest."

Sarah smirked at Ellie "Who's talking about rest?"

Chuck woke up a little disoriented. Instead of his beautiful girlfriend draped over him he was alone in bed. He reached over and touched the sheets and they were cold. Sarah had been up for a while. "Sarah?" he called out to her. The robes they were wearing after coming back from the pool were hanging up on the hook on the bathroom door and Sarah's phone was sitting on the nightstand next to his. Finally awake enough, after all Sarah had kept him up most of the night for rounds two, three and four, he thought he heard noises from the kitchen. After using the bathroom, he headed into the kitchen not bothering to put anything on his naked body. Much to his surprise, he found the fireplace lit, some music playing in the background, and Sarah Walker, wearing only an apron, cooking in the kitchen.

"Good morning, beautiful."

Sarah looked over her shoulder and smiled. "Hi, handsome. Come on in, I'm making breakfast."

Chuck walked up behind Sarah and slid his arms around her waist. He kissed her on the cheek and neck and inhaled. "Mmmmmm… Something smells wonderful…. And the food smells good, too."

Sarah giggled at his comment and said "Flattery will get you everywhere, Mr. Bartowski."

Chuck smiled and slid his hands inside the apron and cupped her breasts. "I'm counting on it future Mrs. Bartowski."

Sarah loved being called that and after enjoying for a moment where his hands were said "I thought I wore you out last night. I'm making you breakfast so you can get your strength back. Although breakfast can wait."

Chuck nibbled on her earlobe as he continued massaging her. "You make a very tempting offer, sweetheart. But I am really hungry. What are you making?"

"Pancakes, eggs, bacon and coffee. We also have some orange juice."

"Sounds really good. How can I help?"

"The food is almost ready. I thought we'd eat by the fireplace. I found some trays in the cupboard. You could get those down and get out the plates and then pour the drinks. Although that would entail you moving your hands and I'm not so sure I want you to do that."

Chuck smiled between nibbles on her earlobe and kissed her. I'm not so sure I want to do that either, but I'll continue this after breakfast."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

They thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast and eating in front of the fireplace. They enjoyed considerable kissing and caressing while eating and when finished, set the trays aside and engaged in a vigorous round five. After lying there spent for several minutes entwined together, Sarah asked,

"What time do you want to leave for practice?"

"I was thinking about 3pm." It was currently 1:30. "What are you going to do when I'm at practice?"

"My mom and dad want us to join them for dinner tonight and your parents want us to join them tomorrow night, so I was thinking of going to see Carina for a couple of hours."

"Have you heard back from Diane about ice time?"

"The only time she could get was fairly early in the morning, at 10am. Fortunately it's at the Pacific Arena."

"That sounds early. I guess that means we're going to have to go to bed earlier" said Chuck giving her the Bartowski eyebrow dance.

Sarah chuckled. "At least you're adaptable sweetie."

"I'll do the dishes while you take the first shower."

"You sure you want to do that?"

"You did the cooking. It's only fair."

Sarah raised an eyebrow and gave him a sly grin. "You could join me."

"You are a temptress, honey. But if I join you in the shower, I'll definitely be late for practice."

Chuck stood up and helped Sarah to her feet. He patted her gently on her behind and said "Off you go before I change my mind."

Sarah wiggled her perfect behind as she headed to the bathroom and looked back over her shoulder "You know where to find me."

On the way to practice Chuck called Morgan to see how Alex was doing.

"She's progressing nicely Chuck. She won her quarterfinal race and finished second in the semi-final, so she made it to the final."

"That's great news, said Chuck. Tell her we said hi and go bring home a medal."

"Will do, Chuck. What are you guys up to?"

"I'm heading over to practice and Sarah's going to visit Carina. You and Alex should come to my game tomorrow. We have two extra tickets but they're in a different section than where my parents are."

"Sounds great Chuck. I'll check with Alex but I'm sure we'll come."

They hung up the phone and Chuck and Sarah cuddled in the back of the limo until they arrived. They shared a passionate kiss that lingered with the promise of more, later and Chuck exited the car. Sarah instructed the driver to head over to the village so she could see Carina and Chuck went inside the building.

Sarah enjoyed her visit with Carina and doubly enjoyed teasing her about Patel's. It turns out that she and Cole ended up passed out in her room. Carina plopped down on her roommate's bed, while her roommate was in it. In frustration Alex Forrest, her roommate, pushed her on the floor and Carina stayed there all night. Cole ended up on Carina's bed and wondered how he ended up there alone. Neither had any recollection of the events of the previous night. Sarah and Carina had gone across the street to the coffee house to have a cup of tea and talk. While there, Cole had showed up and didn't remember meeting Sarah at all.

"I don't see how I could forget someone as lovely as you, Sarah," said Cole.

"Easy tiger. She's taken. Very taken," smiled Carina.

"Who's the lucky bloke?"

"My boyfriend is Chuck. Chuck Bartowski. You met him last night too."

"Ayyyyyeee. This is terrible. I hope my mind is OK."

"I'm sure you and Carina will be fine. It'll take a few days."

"Oh, good. You had me worried for a moment."

They sat and chatted some more while drinking their tea until it was time to go.

"Say hi to Chucky for me," said Carina as Sarah got up to leave.

"Will do. Take care of yourself. We're planning on coming up and seeing you in the slalom."

"Great. See you later."

A/N 2 For those of you who don't know, La Jolla (pronounced La Hoya) is a beautiful small beach town just north of San Diego, California. Here's a teaser for the next chapter.

"Since Patel's closed, we decided to check out a sports bar around the corner. It's called Castle."

"That's an unusual name for a sports bar," said Chuck.

"Yeah," said Morgan. "I hear it used to be a secret spy base for the CSIS. It's the Canadian version of the CIA."
