Disclaimer: No, silly readers, I don't own Chuck or Starbucks.

A/N: This is me trying something new, an AU story that will hopefully be long-ish. Please give me some helpful feedback because I don't really know what I'm doing.

Once every year Sarah received a letter in the mail from San Diego. She received the letter on the same day, April 17th, every year. Chuck knew nothing of these letters. They were Sarah's little secret, although he never knew that they were probably the biggest secret she was keeping from him.

When the letter arrived this year, Sarah was not at all shocked. She slipped the little envelope from the stack of mail before Chuck could ever see it and stuck it in her purse.

"Chuck, honey, I'm going to Starbucks for some quiet time. See you later."

He waved goodbye as she sped off in her Porche. It didn't matter how many times she got the letters, she still had to fight back tears when she even thought about opening them. Her past would always be a sore spot for her, especially this part of her past.

When Sarah arrived at the coffee shop she ordered herself an iced venti chai and got a table in the back corner. Taking a deep breath, Sarah gingerly opened up the envelope.

Something wasn't right. The handwriting was different. This couldn't be good.

The letter read:

Dear Sarah,

We don't know how to tell you this, but she's escaped. She's coming for you. Please prepare yourself. We wish we could have done something to save you the pain I'm sure you're about to feel. Don't run. You know better than us that she will find you if she wants to. She's smart.

Blessings,

Cara and Dan

'Oh my God', thought Sarah. 'How did she find out where I live? This is going to ruin my life. Now that I have everything I want it is all going to come crashing down. How am I going to prepare Chuck, tell him about the mistakes I have made in my life.'

Sarah ran as fast as she could out of the Starbucks, rushing home to Chuck. What if she was already here? This couldn't be good. The girl was angry and most likely dangerous. All Sarah wanted to do at that moment was go back to 1996 and undo this problem. But she couldn't, and her problems and her past were coming here to L.A. right now to find her.

When Sarah looked back on the summer after her sophomore year in high school she was mostly sad. She had just moved to San Diego with her dad and away from "the cutest boy in the whole world, who I could probably marry someday" which had "totally ruined my life, ugh." But she was adjusting to the new city. She was still going out on cons with her dad as her gawky teenage appearance sort of camouflaged her into the scenery. That was the summer they did the San Diego Comic Con con, or the SDCCC as Sarah liked to call it, although she was Jenny back in those days. The SDCCC brought back some mixed emotions for Sarah. It had been a strange experience seeing all those freaks in weird outfits. She had to admit, she liked comics, mostly for the artistry. Sarah got to meet Jim Mooney, one of her idols, who inked the Supergirl comics among other things.

Jim Mooney wasn't the most important person she met there though. There she met "her first", a guy she only knew by his superhero name, CC. At one point during the con she got completely lost and was then trampled by a stampede of Trekkies. CC scooped her up, with some struggle, and pulled her out of the madness. They spent the rest of the weekend together, and right before he left they made love in the back of his beat up car.

She had to forget about those happy times though because she had to preserve the happiest thing that had happened to her since that day, Chuck. The girl was coming for Sarah and Sarah's spy instincts told her that she might do some serious damage to Chuck as well if he got in the way.

Sarah haphazardly pulled into the closest parking spot she could find, ripped off her seat belt, and shot out of the car headed for the front door.

When she banged through the front door of the apartment she shared with Chuck, he was just sitting on the couch watching the TV. He was fine. The world had not come crashing in around him.

Chuck stared at his girlfriend, who was panting and had a crazy look in her eye.

"Hey, sweetie, that was fast. Why do you look crazy?" Chuck was always honest.

Sarah took a deep breath and went to sit next to Chuck, who scooted over to accommodate her.

"Chuck, there are some things I never told you about my life. You haven't really asked, which I appreciate because there are some things that if I told you I would have to kill you, but there are some things that it may be important for you to know."

Sarah was kind of babbling and Chuck didn't really understand what she was saying, but he nodded and encouraged her to continue.

"My past before the CIA is very complicated. You know my dad was/ is a con man. You know where I went to high school. What you don't know is what happened to me the summer after my sophomore year, the summer I moved to San Diego, the summer I turned 16."

Chuck was silent. He knew saying anything at this point would just spook her. He had to stay very still and wait for her to share. There was nothing that could prepare him for what she was about to say.

Sarah turned to face Chuck. She held both of his hands and looked him straight in the eyes.

"Chuck, that was the summer I lost my virginity. It was also the summer I got pregnant with my daughter."

Chuck dropped her hands, mouth agape. Sarah continued.

"I wanted to tell you this because she found out where I live and is coming here, now."
