This is going to follow the story somewhat, but not completely. With Serena's arrival and all, Nate acting distant, etc. But other then that its going to be also completely AU in some ways too. Just follow along as best as you can. This will also be a musical fic, hence why the name of the story is 'When Words Fail, Music Speaks' I'd love for my readers to also tune into the songs listed in this fic. To me listening to the songs during the parts in the story makes things seem much more realer. With that said I do hope you enjoy this Musical CHAIR packed story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Gossip Girl nor their Characters, however I only wish I owned Ed Westwick (Chuck Bass) because he is just way to amazing, not to mention super sexy, that it seriously drives me crazy!


Chuck Bass & his methods of seduction! Because we all know he's the best!

~xoxoxo~

"Chuck" yelled an extremely pissed yet sexy brunette running towards him.

"Waldorf, could you yell a bit more louder, with a little more excitement in it please." stating, while sporting his devilish grin.

"Bass don't be so crude." folding her arms, while standing next to him.

"Oh if you thought that was crude you have no idea what I'm capable of." lazily playing with the tassels of his scarf"

"Ugh, enough Chuck!" rolling her eyes up at him. "Look I was just wondering if you knew where Nate is, he didn't show up for 1st or 2nd period."

"It seems our boy Nathaniel had other things to attend to this morning." who am I her boyfriends keeper.

"Yeah I can see that, but do you know where he is?" gosh what an idiot.

"Damn Waldorf shouldn't that be something you know I mean you've practically implanted a tracker on the boy." Needy girlfriends would have to the worst. Good thing I don't do girlfriends ever.

"Funny Bass, but cut the bullshit. I'm being serious I don't know where he is. As for the tracker I will need to remember that next time." watching the edges of his mouth turn up slightly.

"Bullshit huh. My, my our little Waldorf is using such filthy words, I always knew there was a naughty Blair just hiding deep inside begging to let lose. "sensing her becoming impatient he knew he had to drop it already, but their banter was just too fun at times"

"Bass how did you ever know?" walking closer to him, before hitting him on the arm. "I'm serious, where is he?"

"If you must know Nathaniel is in New Haven for the remainder of the week, something about his Grandfather needing him and the rest of the Vanderbilt's present during an announcement" rubbing the spot that was just momentarily assaulted. Damn for a little thing she sure knew how to pack a punch. "And I can do without your abuse."

"Announcement, I wonder what could be going on." looking down, wondering why Nate failed to share any of this with her, but then again he had been avoiding her as of lately.

"I don't know he didn't disclose anything..." sensing her change in attitude. He instantly curses his best friend for always leaving him to clean up the mess. "Look Waldorf I'm sure its nothing, you know how he can be forgetful."

"Yeah I'm starting to see just how forgetful he can be... here lately." looking back up at him. "Its just he's been so distant here lately, especially after Serena returned. I just don't know what's going on with him anymore."

"I'm sure its nothing." Even though he knew exactly what was going on, in fact he'd known sense it first happened. "Nathaniel's just has a lot on his plate as of lately, what with his father and mother constantly nagging at him. I mean you know his grades hasn't been the best this year."

"Yeah your probably right." wanting to end this all together, plus Chuck seeing her vulnerable is never a good thing. "Well thanks Bass but I got to be heading to Music Class."

"Of course I'm right, I'm always right Waldorf." coming to walk behind her. "And as for the 'thanks' I can think of a more proper way you can oblige me.' watching her turn around quickly to face him.

"Please Bass, I would never touch you, less long let you touch me." watching him step closer, before raking his eyes up and down her form. Feeling her cheeks momentarily blush.

"Are you sure about that Waldorf?" lowering his head down to her level before starring in those big doe eyes of hers. "Because trust me I could make you feel things that would leave you laying awake at night craving for just one more touch." running his finger tips down her outer arm, instantly feeling tiny goose bumps breaking way to the surface. "Begging for one more encounter." he whispers in her ear, before hearing her gasp and blow the tiniest bit of air out.

"Chuck" she whispers, knowing she should push him away but for some reason she couldn't move, she was doing well to breath. "Stop please." her eyes meeting his in a forgoing starring battle.

"Why is pretty little Waldorf feeling heated?" watching those dark orbs look at him. He couldn't help but to be drawn to them. For as long as he knew her she had always been known for her big doe eyes and perfect pouty lips. What started out as a fun little game for him was slowly drawing him in way to much for his liking. He needed to get control real quick. "Don't worry Waldorf your not really up to par with the type of girls that I normally get with."

Yeah, and what's that 'Slut'?" pulling from whatever hypnosis she was just in. Instantly feeling conflicted, by the loss of body contact. Not to mention somewhat hurt by his words. Was there something wrong with her? wait what is she thinking, this is Chuck Bass for god sakes. "Because I would never associate with half of those whores that fall in that category."

"Careful Waldorf, don't want anyone to think you might be jealous." watching her eyebrows turn up at his words. "But those whore's know how to have a good time unlike you." he simply states.

"I know how to have a good time. And I don't even have to be a whore to do it." coming to stand closer to him.

"Sure you do. But I highly doubt watching 'Breakfast At Tiffany's' while sneaking an extra glass of mimosa would classify as having a good time." rolling his eyes. "But just in case you ever want to step over to the wild side, you know experience something out of the ordinary, well you know who to call." smirking at her. "Because trust me Waldorf I would give you a night to remember there's no doubt about that."

"Ugh.. your heinous, but sure thing I'll remember that." sarcastically stating. "Well this has been fun and all but I really must go, class is about to start and you know how I hate being late." turning and walking away"

"Wait up Waldorf" coming up behind her and casually draping an arm across her petite shoulders. "I'll walk you, besides we are going to the same class after all."

"Really you don't say." rolling her eyes, they've only been in the same music class sense freshmen year. "On one condition."

"Name it Queen B, and I promise to make it happen." whispering to her.

"Remove your arm from my shoulder immediately." she looks at him with her best evil expression.

"And her I thought you absolutely adored my touch, that is made your body quake at the mere thought of being close to me." he grins at her, but removes his arm anyways.

"Only in your dreams Bass" feeling momentarily relieved, but then inadequate too. What was it about Chuck here lately that has her questioning everything she says or does.

"Every night Waldorf" he smirked back at her while they continued walking to class. "Every night."


"Okay Class today we start the Improv segment of our class. Now you may remember last week when I told everyone to come up with a song that best describes you or what you like to do, because you will have to perform it in front of the entire class. Well that starts today so I hope everyone has did just that. You may just sing or if you play piano, guitar, any of the above instruments to my side here you can use as well. Now with that being said let us start in alphabetical order, it looks like we will only get through the A's and B's today but rest assure everyone will be performing this assignment, so let us begin."

After what seemed like forever. He heard his name being called.

"Charles Bass."

Making his way up to the stage, instanatly looking over at his teacher.

"Its Chuck." before turning his eyes back to his fellow classmates. Hearing his music cue. Noticing one person in particular looking straight at him. Those big brown doe eyes drawing him in once more as he began to sing his national anthem to the whole class.

And we do, and we do, and we do it all night right.

After the song ends he leaves the stage with a standing ovation from his other peers. But what surprises him the most was seeing Blair Waldorf herself being one of those. His best friends girl and counter scheming partner was clapping for him too. This only served to make him feel prouder. Remember his earlier words he shared with her, granted he may have told her she wasn't up to par with the girls he got with which was the truth. If he was being honest with himself, she was so much more in all accounts. Shaking his head of the naughty thoughts floating in his mind that moment. Lets face it, she wasn't his girl, she belonged to his best friend. Plus lets not forget, girls like that don't go for the Chuck Bass's of the world.


"Chuck" she yells while crossing the courtyard to him the next day. "Wait up."

"If this is regarding Nathaniel, I know nothing more then what I told you yesterday." turning to face her, he was in a hurry Katarina Meeks was giving him the look & he just knew he could get in a quickie before the morning bell was to ring.

"I wasn't... I mean I'm not asking about Nate," coming to stand closer to him. "That was quit the performance yesterday Bass. I'm truly impressed, I knew you had some musical background, what with you playing piano and all, but didn't know you could sing like that." watching his eyes look down at her in surprise almost.

"Yeah well I do possess many more talents Waldorf." smirking downward at her, not wanting to show how happy her saying that made him feel. He was still Chuck Bass after all, and compliments come and go. No reason to act any different.

"That I don't doubt." smirking back up at him. What was wrong with her why was she flirting with him. Maybe she was sick or lonely yeah that's what it had to be. With Nate always ignoring her lately and him being away currently.

"Yes... well it seems that I need to be going." things were turning a bit weird all of a sudden. What happen to the Waldorf who called him on his bullshit exactly? "Katarina Meeks is looking to explore some of my other hidden talents at the moment so I should really be going." looking over her shoulder to the opposing eyes starring him down still. Missing the hurt streaming from the petite brunette before him.

"Uh yeah... we wouldn't want to keep Kat waiting." stepping away from him to turn around, knowing a bathroom stall was calling her name in the near future, what was wrong with her why did Chuck's dismissal seem to hurt her so much.

Yesterday during his performance she could have sworn he was starring straight at her, hearing his voice and the lyrics of the song sent a warming sensation all through her body. She was seriously turned on by every word and move of his body. After it ended it was like her body had a mind of its own raising with the others and applauding, shortly after she felt ashamed for even thinking such unquestionable thoughts of her boyfriends best friend and scheming partner. I mean she hate Chuck right? But last night she found herself drifting off to dream land with those dark eyes starring straight at her. Which in turn caused her to search him out this morning.

"Hey" noticing her body slump all of a sudden, feeling torn on what to do. He reaches his hand out taking her face into his before pulling her up to look at him. "Thanks Waldorf, it must have really been a good performance for the Queen B to of liked it."

"There's no need to thank me, everyone liked it." looking at him once more, then flashing her pearly whites before turning to leave.

Watching her walk away he couldn't hide the disappointment that came over him. What was wrong with him, why did he have to dismiss her like that. Her words seemed genuine. Not to mention she wanted to spend time with him this morning.

To be perfectly honest he could careless about that Katerina chick. She was just someone he used to by-pass the time with. Something he never seemed to do when he was around Blair. No when she was around, he actually liked her company, whether they were nagging at one another or plotting someone's downfall. She was one of the girls he actually treated different. He didn't know if it was because she was dating his best friend or for the simple fact that they'd known one another sense Kindergarten. Maybe that why he always found himself respecting her in some ways. He loved watching her bring girls to tears with just a look, quit frankly that's just one of the small things he admired about her.

Rolling his eyes, and mentally slapping himself. He noted he shouldn't be thinking of Blair Waldorf at all. No he shouldn't be caring about her feelings, or watching over her when things go bad. That was Nathanael's job, not his! He was Chuck Bass, he wasn't suppose to care.


In case this fic looks familiar, that's because it probably is. I'm currently working on redoing some of my older Chuck and Blair fanfictions. Reason as to why, is because some of my earlier works was horrid. And to be honest, they're still not up to pare. I know I have a lot of problems with my grammar usage, wording, and where to use the right abbreviation's and so forth. I am really working hard to try my best to fix these problems. But until then I decided to go ahead and redo some of my stories. Most of them are the same, but I did change some of their conversations and so on. I do hope you enjoyed this chapter. I will be posting the next chapter soon! Please leave me an R&R. Constructive criticism is always welcomed! Thank you to those who have done so already, its been dually noted!
