"Wow! This food is good." you said as you were eating your food." So how'd you hear about this place, anyway?"

" Morgan, as a matter of fact. The man has a black belt in dumplings. I trust any recommendation he gives me for food items less than ten dollars." Chuck replied.

" So our first date is a Morgan recommendation?"

"Wow. No faith in our friend?" Chuck said laughing and you laughed too. "I think you should know that he is always been supportive of our relationship even if it means he's a third wheel now. Plus he was just really excited that we were finally going out on a first date after being together for a while now so he had to jump in and help."

"Fair enough." you said still laughing a little.

"And he's never found it remotely unbelievable that a guy like me could be dating, um... You know."

" What?"

" Um... you know, you. You're really going to make me say it, aren't you?"

You just looked at him and smiled.

" You- wow, okay. Fine. All right, we'll play it your way. A girl like you. Or more appropriately, a woman like you. I mean ,when we were young I always thought you were cute then Morgan came into the picture not long later, and we grew up and you became this gorgeous girl and Morgan and I were total nerds and we thought you would have ditched us by then but you never did. And I remember all the girls in high school thought you were weird for hanging out with us but you didn't care. And you stood up for us all the time. And now you are still that gorgeous, caring, amazing woman today, who is slowly learning to kick ass, and I still find I'm way out of your league and-"

"Chuck...you are now out of my league. Okay? Please never think that. I feel so lucky to be dating you. I mean you're so sweet, caring, charming, handsome...brave. I love everything about you. And just so you know, I didn't care what any of those girls thought. They were missing out."

Chuck smiled.

"My God, I love you."

"I love you too Chuck."

Chuck leaned over the table and gave you a quick kiss.

You and Chuck were finishing up your dinner and opening your fortune cookies.

"So have you talked to Sarah about what she's going to do yet? If she's leaving?" Chuck asked.

"No... I mean I know she's going to have to it' s just..."

"This is your first real female friend since Ellie in a long time."

"Yeah..." you looked down and then cleared your throat and looked up at Chuck. "I'm so happy we finally did this babe."

"Me too."

"And you know the night doesn't have to be over just yet..." you said, giving him a little smirk.

"No it doesn't." Chuck said, about to lean in and kiss you when he spotted a man. "No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no, not now. Not now."

"What Chuck?"

You then noticed he flashed on someone.

"Did you flash?"

"Man over there." he said pointing and you looked over and flashed also.

"Great..." You then flashed on a couple other people. "We're surrounded."

"This would be a good time to have Sarah and Casey right now."

"Hello again, Chuck." A big man said coming in standing by you both. It was the man that dangled Chuck out of that building.

"And you are? " you asked.

"My name is Mr. Colt. You must be the girlfriend you talked about. I need you to come with me."

" Now why would we do that, Mr. Colt?"

" 'Cause I assume you find me imposing. Don't worry, be honest. I'm going for imposing."

"Mission accomplished." Chuck said, looking at him.

"Well, I'll tell you what. The people that hired me... give me the heebie-jeebies." Colt said.

" You know, when you put it in context like that, I-I..."

" Let's go. We'll take care of the check."

" Um, you know, are you sure? The moo goo gai pan is very expensive here, so we could probably go Dutch or something. How much do bad guys normally tip?" Chuck asked.

You had had enough, and tried to kick Colt and punch him in the face but he ended grabbing your arm and putting a hand around your throat.

"Y/N!" Chuck shouted getting up fast.

"Move and she dies."

All of a sudden, yours and Chuck's watches started to beep.

"What is that?" Colt asked.

" It's a homing device." you said, smiling a little.

You then all looked out the window to see a car coming towards it.

" Is that a Crown Victoria?" Chuck asked.

" Move! " you yelled as you were able to get out of Colt's grasp and Chuck ran over to you, both of you ducking down as he shielded you as the car came through the window.

"Hey!" Sarah shouted getting out of the car.

" Somebody order drive-thru?" Casey joked.

"In the car guys!" Sarah shouted looking over at you and Chuck.

Chuck quickly helped you up.

"Come on! Come on! We got to go right now!" Chuck said as he put his hand on your back and guided you quick to the car.

Casey was about to get back into the car when Colt punched him good in the face. He still got into the car and closed the door quickly.

"Let's go Casey!" Sarah shouted.

"Casey drive!!" you shouted.

Men began to shoot at the car and you quickly pulled out of there and drove away.

"Somebody order drive-thru, huh? Did you think that up as you were racing over to save us? "Hey, maybe I'll say this after I crash into the restaurant!"" Chuck yelled at Casey.

"Casey, we have to go back and find out who they work for. " Sarah said.

"Too many of 'em, we can't."

" Well, at least we still have the cypher." you said.

"Yeah, about that... Looks like you two are still our intersects." Casey said.

"Sarah..." you started.

Sarah looked back at you.

"Don't worry guys...we'll get it back."

Chuck stayed over at your place this time. Your alarm went off, playing "Power of love."

You both slowly woke up and you reached over to turn off your alarm. You turned to look over at Chuck and could see he was still upset too about the cypher. You moved closer and snuggled into him and he instantly wrapped his arms around you.

"This sucks." you said.

"I know baby."

"What are we going to do?"

"I guess keep living how we're living right now and trust that Sarah and Casey will fix this."

You just nodded your head. You both laid there for a few more minutes.

"Guess I should start getting ready for work." Chuck said, kissing the top of your head before getting up.

"Yeah me too."

Chuck was back at work, conducting interviews for a position as the assistant regional manager came in, when Casey came in and flashed on where Casey was punched by Colt.

"What is it?" Casey asked.

" I know where they are."

" Who?"

" Who? What do you mean, who? Colt! The guy who smashed you in the face last night. Yeah, I flashed on your scar. It's the emblem for their organization. They have a secret hideout downtown. Warehouse 17 on 103rd Street. We'll hop in the Herder..."

" Cool your jets, hotshot. I'll call it in."

"What do you mean call it in? There's no time! They could be on the move already."

"Relax. I'm not gonna rush us into a hideout situation until I'm absolutely certain we have the upper hand. We'll get the Cipher. Just might take some time."

"Casey, I can't take this anymore. Y/N can't take this anymore. Do you understand what I'm saying? We cannot do this anymore! I almost died twice in the period of one day, all right? Y/N got attacked by Colt and had her life threatened. And when I'm looking at my life and what my future could be, I see that it doesn't completely suck. Your Intersect, your new Intersect is almost done. And when it is, we're free, we're cool, we're clear, we're out of here. I have a future and a life that I want to live with Y/N."

"Future's a dangerous thing, Chuck. Doesn't always work out like you want it to."

"What happened to you? You were this close to being done with us and being a real spy again."

" What? You don't you want me here to catch you when you fall?"

"No, as a matter of fact, I'd rather have you flying jets and blowing things up."

"Wait here." Casey told Chuck as he got up.

Chuck went outside to see you at work, and he caught you as you were about to head back in.

"Y/N!"

You turned around and saw Chuck coming towards you.

"Hey! What's up?"

"I think something is going on. Casey came here to see Sarah."

You both quickly walked into your work and saw Sarah getting ready to head out.

"Hey. Hey, what's happening?" you asked.

"You're going down there, aren't you?" Chuck asked.

"Down where?" I flashed on where they are when I saw Casey's scar.

"We're on it, Chuck." Sarah said.

You then saw Casey come out

"What-what's back there?" Chuck asked him.

" Well, like the sign says, yogurt and fun."

They were about to head out the door when Chuck spoke up.

"Let us come along. You got to bring Charles and Y/N Carmichael. You remember, debonair and gorgeous super spies, who also happens to have the Intersect in their heads? You know, us? We can help you guys."

" Charles and Y/N Carmichael aren't your real names, Chuck. You made them up. You're just Chuck Bartowski and Y/N L/N, and you're not real spies, huh?"

"We have a tactical team meeting us at the location that you gave Casey. We'll take down Colt and find the Cipher, and you two go back to work." Sarah told you both before leaving with Casey.

"Sarah it's dead here."

"And don't worry about the Buy More. I put Morgan in charge of the job search. He's got it under control."

"You sure about that?" you asked looking up at him. "It is Morgan."

You went with Chuck back to the Buy More and saw that there were none of the employees around.

"Anna? Jeff? Lester?" Chuck called out.

"Why do I feel like this is a Morgan thing?" you asked.

"Bartowski! Computer emergency!" Big Mike shouted.

"Hey, where is everybody?" Chuck asked.

" Don't care. Just got a call for Nerd Herd help. They said they got a recommendation for you."

"Well, can I send someone else or did they ask for me specifically?"

" You know I hate taking calls. Get going!"

"Want me to come with?" you asked Chuck.

"What about your work?"

"They can handle not having me there."

"Alright. Let's go."

You and Chuck made it to the location. Chuck went over and knocked on the door as you stood beside him.

"Buy More Nerd Herd. Hello. I'm here about the..."

The door opened and Colt was standing there.

" Computer emergency..."

"Ah crap." you said.

" Hello, Chuck and Y/N. Come on in."
