Chuck needed to learn the art of seduction and despite everything that computer in his brain could help him do, it could not turn him into the arrogant, suave, confident guy that was sometimes required on these missions. So when Carina came to town for a visit to see her best friend and find out how her new relationship with Chuck, or as Carina put it, "ongoing romps in the hay with the cute nerd Chuckie" was going, Sarah saw an opportunity for a learning experience for Chuck.
When Sarah proposed the idea of having Carina pick up a guy while her and Chuck sat nearby and watched and listened through open comms, Chuck was a little hesitant. "Sarah I'm not very comfortable with those kinds of missions and while I want to be the best spy I can be, I will never cheat on you, even if it's for the sake of the mission. I love you too much to hurt you like that", Chuck explained.
Wiping away a few tears at the heartfelt confession, Sarah responded "I love you too Chuck. So much. But just so you know actual sex with a mark is hardly ever required for the types of missions we would be going on. The only time actual sex is a must is on long term deep cover assignments, but for what our team does that would never be an option."
Chuck gave her a relieved but confused look, "But with how Casey and Carina talk and the situation with Lon Kirk, I just assumed that it was something that all agents did."
Sarah frowned at the memory, "I am so sorry what I put you through back then. I can never apologize enough to make it up to you but you need to know that I would have never gone that far with him. In fact I have never gone beyond some heavy petting with a mark, probably slightly past second base. And I never will go that far, especially now that we're together. Ideally even second base is off limits now."
The grin on Chucks face couldn't be contained as he grabbed Sarah and kissed her so hard she though their lips might be bleeding. Carina, standing by watching the display with lust in her eyes, hatched an idea. "You know it's a completely different process to seduce a man than it is a woman. Chuckles here won't learn anything from watching me seduce a guy. But I have another idea", Carina explained conspiratorially.
Sarah, ever on guard around her very unpredictable and spontaneous best friend eyed her wearily, responding with a cautious "And what would that be?" Carina ever the troublemaker, responded by quickly moving right up to Sarah, grabbing her face with both hands and kissing her with all the passion she had.
Momentarily caught off guard, it took Sarah a few seconds to respond but when she did, Carina found herself on the floor with her arm painfully twisted behind her back. "Calm down Walker it's nothing you haven't done countless times before."
Sarah was caught off from responding when she heard a very strained "Huh?" She looked up and saw Chuck with a glazed, far away look in his eye.
Knowing full well what he must be thinking she quickly attempted to explain herself. "Listen Chuck you know about my past relationships, and you know I wasn't really very social in college. I kind of went though somewhat of a wild phase during my CAT Squad days".
Seeing Chuck was having a hard time responding, a snort was heard coming from Carina's general vicinity, followed by a very amused "What's wrong Chuckie, CAT got your tongue? Or are you just upset you got my sloppy seconds?" Chuck immediately went beat red and started fumbling over his words while Sarah stared daggers at her best friend and as Chuck recently learned, ex-partner with benefits.
Seeing Chuck struggle with the news, Sarah pulled Chuck away from Carina. "Chuck please don't be upset it was a long time ago and I was young and stupid. I had just recently undergone my transformation from ugly social outcast to a woman who actually got quite a bit of attention. I was inexperienced and I got caught up in all the attention. But I promise it was just the CAT Squad girls, no one else. They got me to open up and be more social."
Sarah was talking a mile a minute and didn't even hear Chuck when he spoke. Sarah shook herself out of her panicked tirade and asked him to repeat himself. What he asked next made her want to laugh. "Sarah are you a lesbian?" She couldn't suppress the chuckle that escaped, and went on to explain.
"Chuck if I were a lesbian do you think we would be having the wild and crazy monkey sex and passionate love making we do now? No I'm not a lesbian I just find girls physically attractive but I've never had any romantic feelings towards them. I guess I'm bisexual but your the first person I've ever loved, so no definitely not a lesbian."
"Don't lie Walker, I know you love me." An amused Carina interjected.
Chuck immediately relaxed and chuckled a bit and Sarah felt she could finally breath. He pulled her into a hug and after standing in the embrace for a few minutes he leaned down and whispered into her ear, "You have no idea what imagining you with Carina does to me and I can only imagine your other teammates were very beautiful as well. At the risk of sounding like every other male in the world, that is so hot".
