A/N: Have you ever just gotten PM about a story and a simple question asked, and your brain won't let the idea go? I thought I was done with the Sarah vs The Life Unexpected Series completely. I see this world in 3 (possibly 4) books. Sarah vs is book 1. Molly vs The life She Expected takes place after her brother is born until Molly gets to the dating age. Chuck vs The Life Unexpected is Molly from dating age on, but I started thinking at some point I might do Chuck and Sarah vs The Life Unexpected which would be Molly post high school years. I say all of that to say this…I had a plan for those letters from Christmas Time is Here. I had forgotten about them, and then Vurich23 asked me about them. And hey, I'm totally good with going back, because of everything I've done, this remains my favorite. These two crazy kids falling in love at super speed, getting married and having a family. I put a poll up on the Facebook fanfic page…that was overwhelming! So yeah, it's back. How long? No idea. This will be a series of one shots (maybe two if the story takes a bit) about each letter. I have no idea when the ideas will hit me, but then again, I have no idea when any Molly story will hit me. So welcome back, to the world where the dieabetes is running wild from all the fluff (for the record I do know I'm spelling diabetes wrong, it's just that's how I picture Molly saying it) Welcome, to Sarah vs The Life Unexpected: The Letters

Disclaimer: I don't own Chuck…or Molly…really….I don't


Hi, I'm Sarah! Here are a few things you might need to know, or maybe you just forgot. Five years ago, I saved a baby from an off books CIA plot by a rogue agent and brought her to California. I asked my mom, Emma to raise the baby, but she refused and told me this was my chance to end my time with the CIA. For the next four years, mom and I raised Emma while I ran my security company, Burton Industries. Back in April, I met a guy…let's be real, Molly and my Mom set me up…and I'm so glad they did. He is the kindest, nicest, and most wonder man I had even met. His name is Chuck Bartowski and I fell in love faster than I knew was possible. We married in less than a month, and I've never been happier. We both adopted the other's child…Clara is really his niece. Her parents died in an accident. During Christmas I found a letter from Chuck's sister, Ellie. It read as follows:

To the person who captured my brother's heart,

If you're reading this, something happened, something I hoped never would, but I had to be prepared for. For the past nine years I have written a new letter and put in this Christmas box in case something ever happened to me. I don't know how much my brother has told you, but he has never really gotten over what happened to him at Stanford. His then girlfriend cheated on him, and his best friend turned this back on him and got him thrown out of school. Both of our parents left us, and I have been the only constant in Chuck's life. If you're reading this, then that means I'm not in his life anymore, and I'm sorry.

I have no idea how close you are, but if you're reading this, that means he trusted you enough to get into the Christmas ornaments. That's huge if you're wondering. Christmas was our holiday. There are other letters for you, in my closet, in my lockbox. I know, I seem like I'm interfering in his life from beyond the grave, but you have to understand, to some extent I've been that boy's mother, and I've watched him struggle for so long. If you get this, then I am truly worried, because that means not only is he trying to find his place, but he's raising Clara and he's worried that he's not doing right by her.

Okay, enough, I'm crying just writing this. Here's what you have to do, and I'm not sure how. Chuck has to enjoy life again, and Christmas. IF you love him, and I think you do, or you wouldn't be reading this, then know you can't go far enough to remind him of the good of Christmas. Your mission, Chuck's SO, is to make Chuck smile about Christmas again. Attached is the list of everything we used to do and how we decorated the house. Feel free to use it or toss it. You're choice. If you chose not to accept the mission, do me a favor, put this back where you found it, because you're not the one, and we both know it. Sorry if that's harsh, but I'm dead, so I don't have to worry about being called snarky.

Since you're still reading, you love him, and I am so thankful for you. I hope you're a part of Clara's life, and for the love of God, if she wants to call him Daddy and you Mommy, tell him I'm fine with it. He can be so stubborn about things sometimes. I am so thankful for you, and I'm truly sorry we never got to meet. I bet we would have been the best of friends. Thank you. Know that he loves you, and so do I. Take care of my family, I can never thank you enough. I love you.

Eleanor Faye Bartowski Woodcomb

I haven't yet tried to find the other letters, but I should, for Chuck's sake….who am I kidding, I was a spy and that kind of thing never really goes away. I need to find these letters, who knows what else Ellie might say to help me. Okay, that's not the real reason. Ellie knew her brother enough that she knew if something happened to her, given all he had been through, he would have more problems than most. So she took the time to figure out who would help him. It's almost like she knows me. I want to get to know my sister-in-law. So that's what I'm going to do.


A/N: Here's what I know so far, Valentine's Day, "Mother's Day", and "Game night". That's all I have so far, but if you have an idea, send it my way. Take care, see you soon, reviews are always appreciated, and thanks for coming back…I can't believe I'm doing this, but I'm glad I am.
