Chuck vs. The Truth Part 2
Chuck was pacing the floor, you were in the kitchen and Devon was busy working out. You started walking towards Chuck to try to calm him down because you can tell he was freaking.
"Hey." you said softly.
"Hey, hey, do you think, uh, do you think Ellie's okay? Should I call the hospital again?"
"Chuck no. You've called ten times in the past 20 minutes."
"Yeah, I know, but what-what about sweaty nuclear guy? What-what if he hurts her?"
" Come on, Chuck. People saw Ellie at the ER. She is gonna be fine." you said putting your hand on his arm to calm him.
Sarah then came walking in since you called her to help you guys out.
"Hey Sarah." you greeted her.
"Have you found out anything?" Chuck asked.
"We are still looking into it."
"Hey!" Devon said approaching you and Chuck." You spending the night Y/N? My little pep talk must've inspired you guys. Mazel tov."
Sarah looked over at you and she can tell you were trying not to blush.
"Yeah Y/N is just hanging out with me as well as Sarah, until Ellie gets home. And besides, Y/N has slept over before."
"Yeah but in the guest room. Never your room." Devon said winking. "And also Chuck, Ellie's a doctor. Emergencies happen. You know, when somebody asks, "is there a doctor in the house?" that's our cue."
"I'm gonna make some coffee. Do you want some?" you asked.
" Absolutely." Devon said.
"Yeah that sounds good Y/NN."
"I'll come with you." Sarah said joining you.
You both stepped into the kitchen and Sarah turned to look at you as you started making the coffee.
"Listen Y/N I need to ask you something."
"Sure! What is it?"
Before Sarah could ask, Ellie came walking through the door.
"Aw, hey, there she is. Hi, honey." Devon said.
" Ellie!" Chuck shouted, relieved, running towards her and hugging her." Oh, my god! Oh, my god! Oh, my god, you're okay. Oh, my god, you're fine. You're fine. Why wouldn't she be fine?"
"What happened?" You asked her, walking over with coffees in your hands, one for you and one for Chuck.
"We tried everything. Nothing worked. I think he was... Poisoned or had an allergic reaction or something. I'm going to bed. Good night, guys."
" Night, guys."
And Ellie and Devon both headed towards their room.
" Good night." Chuck called out.
"Night." you and Sarah said.
Chuck then turned and stared at Sarah.
"I'm getting way too comfortable lying and sneaking around all this spy stuff, okay. I'm starting to feel that that is my real life. It's all to be expected. It's an existential spy crisis of sorts. It used to be all compartmentalized, you know. Chuck world and spy world. But when I watched those ambulance doors close and my sister was behind them with that sweaty nuclear spy freak, my worlds collided. I put Ellie's life in danger."
"Yeah Sarah that was way too close for comfort. Ellie is like my big sister. Chuck and I don't want to think about what could have happened."
"No, that guy was sick with or without the intersect in your heads. And spy world or no, Ellie helped that guy because that is what she is trained to do."
You turned your head to look at Chuck.
"She does have a point Chuck."
"Yeah I guess so."
You smiled at him then looked back at Sarah.
"So what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?"
"Oh right! Well...Our cover as long time friends has been going very well and well... I'm still a little worried about our cover."
"What is their to be worried about?"
"Well I feel like we are not hanging out a whole lot then we should and... I think it's time for us to do something that typical friends do. Have a sleepover."
Chuck's eyes went wide and you were just trying to process it.
"A sleepover?"
"Yeah. At your place."
"Umm...Yeah... Yeah sure. Let's do it."
"Great! Tomorrow night."
The next day you were on your break and on your way to see Chuck like you normally do. When you walked in though you saw Chuck talking to a girl who looked like she was flirting with him and it appeared to be working on Chuck. You saw Chuck didn't notice you walk in yet so you tried to sneak and listen in on their conversation and yep. They were definitely flirting. You looked down, trying to hold it together. It hurt you very much seeing Chuck with another girl. You looked up to all of a sudden see Sarah approaching Chuck. You couldn't make out everything but all of a sudden the woman left and it was just Chuck and Sarah standing there.
"Uh, there's more to the Mason Whitney incident than we thought." Sarah said turning back to Chuck.
"Okay. I'm sure Y/N is going to be here soon because I feel like she should be on her break by now."
You took a deep breath, trying to compose yourself, before popping out from behind a shelf, pretending like you didn't witness that whole thing.
"Hey guys!"
"Right on cue! Hey Y/NN."
"Let's go guys."
You and Chuck followed Sarah out of the store.
You now found yourselves in a morgue.
"Okay, this is just a storage room. They just happen to store people in this room, people who are no longer breathing and who are Refrigerated."
"God I hate this..." you added.
" Man up, Bartowski and L/N. Got to store 'em somewhere. Better than stacked up on a curb like garbage, right?" Casey asked.
Sarah began to examine the body and you and Chuck looked around anywhere but the body since it made you both very uncomfortable.
" Eyes on the prize. Getting any flashes?" Casey asked.
" Good lord, the man is naked!" Chuck said covering yours and his eyes.
" Appears rigor mortis has set in, too. Find anything?" Casey asked Sarah.
" Nothing yet. No codes. Hang on a second. What is this?" Sarah said, removing something from behind the man's ear.
While she was doing that, Casey was testing the blood he took from the man.
"Hang on."
"What is it?" you asked.
" The guy was poisoned. Toxic derivative of pentothal. Initially, the subject becomes uncontrollably truthful. After it accumulates in the occipital lobe, victim suffers from unconsciousness and eventually... Death."
" What's the timeline on this thing?" Sarah asked.
"Can't say. Could be a couple hours. Could be minutes depending on the concentration."
You and Chuck just stared at each other, a little terrified at the thought.
Later during the day, you and Sarah finished up at Weinerlicious and walked outside to talk.
"I just wanted to make sure we're all set for tonight's mission. "
"Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, it's, you know, it's been a while since I've had a sleepover. I mean I sleep over at Chuck's but it's been a while since I had a girl sleepover you know?"
"Listen, Y/N if you're uncomfortable with this or anything...."
"No! No. I'm fine. It's fine. It's actually going to be kind of nice. Maybe have some girl talk...Learn more about each other..."
Sarah just smirked. You smirked back and then looked over. You saw that girl that was flirting with Chuck earlier and Sarah could see you making a face.
"Yeah that's something we are definitely going to discuss tonight." Sarah said.
"What?" you asked her confused.
"Later Y/N." she said getting up and leaving.
"Later."
You were at your house now, getting everything set up for a girls night. You knew it was only for your cover but you still wanted to make the most of it. You heard the doorbell rang and quickly answered it, Sarah already in her pajamas.
"Hey Sarah!"
"Hey!"
"Come in."
You and Sarah got some snacks and got settled, getting all cozy.
"So...what do you want to do?" you asked.
"Well... I think we need some girl talk."
"Okay. About what?"
"You and Chuck."
You began to blush.
"What about me and Chuck?"
"Y/N. It's obvious you like him."
"Wh-What? No...No... Chuck is my best friend I-"
"Y/N it's okay. You can tell me."
You sighed.
"Okay...Yeah... I do. I have liked him for a very long time. Hell maybe I even love him but..."
"But what?"
"I am afraid to tell him."
"Why?"
"He's been my best friend for years. What if I tell him and he doesn't feel the same? And everything is ruined?"
"I doubt he doesn't feel the same way about you."
"What?"
"Y/N... I see the way he looks at you and how protective he is of you. If he ain't in love with you then I don't know."
You smiled a little.
"But... That girl today."
"Yeah..."
"He was definitely flirting with her. And I mean why not? She's really pretty and..."
"Y/N you can't give up that easy."
"Yeah..."
Your phone then began to rang. You picked up your phone to see it was Chuck.
"Hey Chuck!"
Sarah smirked.
"What?"
Sarah could tell you sounded terrified.
"Yeah. Yeah we will be right there." You quickly hung up your phone and looked at Sarah.
"What is it?"
"It's Ellie. She was acting weird and passed out. Chuck got Casey to come over and check on her. She's been poisoned."
Sarah looked just as shocked as you. You both quickly got up, changed into clothes quick and headed out the door.
