The Wiener Guy - part three

Pairing: Chuck/Casey
Disclaimer: I don't own Chuck
Summary: What if Chuck was gay? Sarah couldn't pretend to be his girlfriend because... well he's gay. What to do? Hmmm. That's a toughie.
Chuck was woken by the smell of coffee. Opening his eyes he saw a mug being placed on the floor by his head.
“I’m going for a run,” Casey said, “You better be up and gone by the time I get back.”
“Good morning to you too,” Chuck said as he wiped his eyes and sat up, “Thanks,” he added as he held up his mug.
“Whatever. Just don’t touch any of my stuff,” Casey told him before leaving.
Chuck watched him go from his position on the bed. He was wearing a plain black vest, shorts and black running shoes. Chuck wondered if they were standard NSA issue or if Casey just liked black. Whatever the reason for him wearing it, he looked pretty good in it. Chuck shook his head to try and get that thought out of his head. He was not about to go down that road... even if they guy was a great kisser.
Just as he took a sip of his coffee he heard his phone ring. Reaching over he pulled his phone out of his pants.
“You up yet?”
Chuck rolled his eyes, “Why? Are you on your way back? You only just left.”
“Just don’t want you falling asleep again.”
“I’m getting up now,” Chuck said as he threw back the covers and stood, “Happy.”
“Ecstatic,” Casey said before hanging up.
Chuck shook his head, that man was insufferable. Deciding to get out of the house as fast as possible to escape the wrath of Casey should he still be there when he returned, he quickly made the bed, pulled on his pants and shoes and headed back to his own apartment. However, the coffee was that good he took it with him. He could return the mug later along with Casey’s t-shirt which he was still wearing, carrying his shirt in his free hand.
“Hey,” Ellie said as he walked through the front door. She and Awesome were just sitting down to have breakfast, “Nice shirt.”
“Oh, it’s Casey’s. He used to be in the Seals.”
“Awesome!” Devon said as he grabbed some toast, “I knew there was something weird about a guy like him working in the wienerlicious.”
“Yeah he gets a pretty good military pension. He just works there for something to do,” Chuck lied. He had no idea what the military pension was like.
“So is everything okay?” Ellie asked. Chuck just stared at her in confusion, “What was the big emergency?”
“Oh that. Uh, one of his friends was mugged. He got beat up pretty badly.”
“Is he okay?” Ellie asked, a worried look now on her face.
“Yeah, we took him home last night. His neighbour’s looking after him and I’m sure Casey will probably pop in later. Casey was pretty upset though, hence why I stayed over.”
Ellie nodded, “Well if his friend needs anything let me know.”
“Thanks,” Chuck said as he sat himself down and began grabbing some food.
~*~*~*~*~*~
“You told your sister that one of my friends was beat up?” Casey asked Chuck as he leaned on the desk of the nerd herder. He wasn’t working today and so didn’t have to wear that ridiculous outfit and was once again wearing black; black jeans, boots, t-shirt and jacket. The man definitely had a thing for black.
“It was the first thing I could think of,” Chuck said with a sigh, “You had already told her how all your family live on the other side of the country so what was I supposed to say?”
Casey bit his lip for once, knowing that Chuck was right. They hadn’t discussed it and only Casey could be blamed for that. But just as he was about to say something sarcastic to Chuck a woman walked up to the desk.
“Excuse me, could you tell me where the laptops are?”
Chuck looked up and froze. It was Annette Zelig, and beside her was her father, “Uh they’re just over there, behind those televisions,” Casey said.
“You work here?” Otto asked.
“Uh, no. But I’m in here a lot,” he said with a smile.
“I see,” Otto said before turning to Annette and talking to her in German. Annette nodded and followed her father over to where the laptops were.
“You okay?” Casey asked Chuck quietly as they stood and watched the two of them walk to the other side of the store. Sarah was also watching them closely as were the two DEA agents who had just walked in, “Oh shit.”
“What?” Chuck asked, “What is it?”
“The DEA agents,” Casey said, “I know them.”
Chuck looked to where Casey was gesturing with his head at two twenty something girls who were obviously twins as they were identical. They were both rather short, about 5’2, both wearing mini skirts, sneakers and vests and looked something akin to harajuku girls, especially with their black bobbed hair with blue and pink streaks in respectively. They also had little pink back packs on their backs and were holding hands as they ‘perused’ the new PSP games. But of course, Chuck wasn’t really taking in their appearance as he was too busy flashing on them.
They were both ex-military, both served time in the army before being recruited to the NSA and then transferring two years ago to the DEA. Their mother and father were also in the military, their mother still being in a high up position having worked her way up. Their father had died whilst in action eighteen years ago. He’d been serving in the Navy Seals at the time. They also had an older brother who, like the rest of his family, had served in the military.
“They’re your sisters?” Chuck hissed at him.
“Shh,” Casey said, “They don’t know what I’m doing here,” he said noticing out the corner of his eye that they had noticed Sarah and were now looking around the store for other agents. They smiled when they saw him, “And they can’t know either.”
“What do I do?” Chuck asked.
“You’re technical support,” Casey said quickly as his sisters began making their way over to him.
“Technical support? What like Q from Bond?”
Casey frowned at him, “If you want to be all nerdy about it then yeah.”
“Johnny!” his sisters called together as they pounced on him, engulfing him in a huge hug.
“Jodie, Jessie,” Casey said as he picked his sisters up and spun them round. He actually hadn’t seen them since they transferred and had barely spoken to them for security reasons.
Morgan’s jaw nearly hit the floor at the sight before him, “Are these your sisters?”
Casey put the girls down and turned to see Morgan, Jeff, Lester, every other male in the place and even Anna practically drooling over them.
“Yes, they are,” Casey said menacingly as he put an arm round them both, daring them all to say something or make a move. Wisely, they all backed off slightly.
Chuck cleared his throat once the others turned away, getting Casey’s attention again. Casey rolled his eyes but introduced him anyway, “Girls this is my boyfriend Chuck. Chuck these two are my baby sisters Jodie and Jessie,” he said gesturing to them both.
“You can tell the difference?” Chuck asked.
“Course I can,” he smiled.
“He’s the only one who can,” Jessie said.
“Well unless we have our hair in different styles like we do now,” Jodie added, “Then everyone can tell.”
Chuck smiled at them and was just about to ask something about Casey when all four of them noticed the Zeligs headed towards the check out with three of the newest and lightest laptops that they had in stock.
“How about we all head out for lunch?” Chuck suggested, loud enough for Sarah to hear, “Get to know each other better?”
“I think that sounds like a great idea,” Jodie said with a smile.
Quickly they all made their way out of the store and into Casey’s SUV. Seconds later they were joined by Sarah.
“Hey Sarah,” the twins said together.
“Hey,” she said, with a nod. Last time she’d encountered these two she’d ended up with two broken ribs and a dislocated shoulder, “So what have we got?” she asked, hoping to deflect their attention away from her.
“Well, Annette’s in town on a deal which you witnessed last night,” Jessie said, “We didn’t think Otto was involved until we seen them drive here this morning.”
“You think he is involved?” Chuck asked, “He could just be wanting to spend some time with his daughter.”
“He’s involved,” Casey said, “We just need to find out to what extent.”
“Right well, this is still our case,” Jodie told them, “He could be branching off into narcotics, so until we have evidence to suggest otherwise, you three should stay out of it.”
Casey raised an eyebrow at them but didn’t argue. He knew they were right and had it been the other way round he would have done the same.
“Right well, if that’s all I’m going back in. Big Mike will go nuts if he sees me missing,” she said, “Let me know if anything comes up.”
“Keep your phone on then,” Casey said to her as she left.
“Of course,” she nodded before turning to the girls, “A pleasure as always ladies.”
Both Jessie and Jodie smiled at that before nodding back to her.
“So, do you want to go get lunch?” Casey asked his sisters.
They both looked at each other and shrugged.
“Sure,” Jodie said.
“Why not,” Jessie added, “We put a tracking device on their car when they went into the Buy More earlier, so we can find them again easily when we need to.”
Casey bit his tongue knowing that the Zelig’s could easily find said device and dump it, but started the car anyway, “So where to?” he asked.
“Ooh,” Chuck said getting excited, “Do you like Chinese?”
~*~*~*~*~*~
Turned out that Otto was branching off into narcotics and so Casey and Sarah were told to back off and leave Agent Casey and Casey to deal with it.
Now that had been confusing. Chuck had ended up having to call Casey John just to stop the confusion throughout lunch. Every time he had said ‘Casey’ all three of them had answered. Apparently whilst in the military Jodie had taken to using her mother’s maiden name as her surname, just to help decipher between the two. However, after their father had died she went back to using his name.
Casey or John rather, had also explained to his sisters that he and Chuck weren’t actually involved (which they had guessed anyway) and that it was just a cover to explain why they spent so much time together. The girls just nodded at this, telling Chuck that he wasn’t the first ‘boyfriend’ they’d met, making Chuck raise a curious eyebrow at Casey... John.
“Hey, how was your day?” Ellie asked as he wandered into the apartment after driving home.
“Okay,” he said, “Had lunch with John and his sister’s,” he added distractedly, “They’re kinda crazy. But nice, and I think they liked me.”
“Casey’s sisters are in town? And since when did you start calling him John?” she asked, hands on hips.
“Oh at lunch. Every time I said Casey all hell broke loose. And yeah, they came over for a surprise visit.”
“Why didn’t you call me earlier?” she asked, “I could’ve organised dinner for us all. It would be nice to meet them.”
“Oh uh...” luckily though, Chuck’s phone rang interrupting the conversation, “John?” he asked as he answered it whilst walking down the hall towards his room.
“Just what the hell are you doing?” Casey growled into the phone, “You can’t tell her about my sisters. They’re here on official business. We cannot and will not be having dinner with them.”
“Sorry. Too late for that now,” he said as he flopped down on his bed, “I doubt Ellie will take no for an answer. And besides, what’s so bad about us all having dinner together. This way we both get to spend more time with our beloved sisters.”
There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment before Casey spoke again, “I’ll call you back,” he said, hanging up.
Chuck grinned, kicked off his sneakers and pulled off his socks. He knew he shouldn’t have said anything to Ellie about Jodie and Jessie, but it had slipped out before he realised what he was saying and once it was said, the chance to spend more time with Ellie was too good to pass up, even if he did have to share it with Casey and his wacky sisters.
“Chuck?” Ellie called as she knocked on his door, “I can’t be bothered cooking, so you want to get a take out.”
“Yeah,” he said as he stood up, “Pizza? I had Chinese for lunch.”
Ellie smiled at him, “Already called it in,” she said waving the phone in her hand.
Chuck smiled back at her and followed her back into the living room where he plopped himself down on the sofa. Ellie collapsed next to him and together they began watching CSI.
The show was only about ten minutes in when there was a knock on the door. Chuck frowned, thinking that it was rather quick for the pizza but pulled out his wallet anyway as he answered the door. Turned out he didn’t need to as it was just Casey.
“Hey,” Casey said with what Chuck could tell was a false smile.
“Hi,” Chuck said as he leaned forward and gave Casey a small peck on the cheek, “What are you doing here?”
“Dinner,” Casey said as he stepped into the apartment.
“Dinner?” Ellie asked.
“Yes,” Casey nodded, “Chuck told me that he told you that my sisters were in town and so I gave them a call to find out if they wanted to go to dinner.”
“Oh. We’ve ordered pizza,” Chuck said.
“That’s good cause they’ve already made plans for tonight. Apparently they’re going out to some club with a couple of guys they met... I didn’t really ask for the details,” he added, “But tomorrow. We should all go out for dinner. The six of us.”
“The six of us?” Chuck asked confused.
“Well, yeah. I figured you’d want Devon there too.”
“Oh yeah, sure,” Chuck said with a nod turning to Ellie, “How is that? Does it work for you?”
“I’m supposed to be on shift tomorrow night. But I can swap it. I mean, this is important right. Meeting my little brother’s boyfriend’s sisters.”
Chuck and Casey just looked at each other, “Uh yeah. I guess so,” Chuck said as he felt Casey take his hand.
Ellie squealed, “You two are so cute. Casey, you’re staying for pizza.”
“Oh. Are you sure?”
“Of course. Now sit,” she said as she stood, “I’ll go get us some beer.”
Chuck and Casey sat down, still holding hands, “Thank you,” Chuck said.
“What for?” Casey asked with a frown.
“For letting me spend some time with my sister.”
“Yeah well, let’s just hope that mine do their job right or there won’t be any dinner,” he said as he put an arm around Chuck in a boyfriendy way. Realising what he was doing, Chuck snuggled into him. He just hoped that Casey didn’t realise that he was actually enjoying the feeling of having someone to wrap himself round more than he should.
