Summary: When Chuck discovers that Dan was the one who sent the tape in to Gossip Girl he goes to find Dan and give the boy what he deserves. How will Blair react when she finds out the truth?
Chuck Bass was absolutely livid. He couldn't believe that Dan Humphrey of all people would be the one person who betrayed both he and Blair in the worst way possible. Chuck new that he would be calling the kettle black since the things he had done in the past far outweighed this, but it didn't matter to him. He loved Blair and all he had ever wanted was for her to be happy. If Dan claimed to care about her half as much as the only son of Bart Bass then how could he do this to her? How could the wannabe writer destroy her wedding when he had to of known it would come with consequences? Look what it had done so far, Blair was trapped in a loveless marriage for a year. Chuck at least wanted her to have love in her life and that is why he hadn't said anything at the wedding. He would rather love her from afar if she would have been happy.
Chuck sat in the back of the limo on the way to the hospital. He knew from Serena and Lily that CeCe had died and he also knew Blair would be there for her best friend and if Blair was there then there was no doubt in his mind that Hum-drum Humphrey would be as well. That boy was like a dog with a bone when it came to girls he was crushing on. He hadn't been planning to do anything at all until he learned the truth. In fact he actually gone back to fix his earlier attempt at sabotage because he didn't want Blair to hate him and because as much as he was loathed to admit this even to himself, he did value the slight friendship he had with Dan, but that had all been before he knew how deep the boy from Brooklyn's betrayal actually went. A kiss had been one thing and yet this went far deeper as did Chuck Basses rage. The fact that he was much too angry to think of some other form of sabotage told the rational part of his brain exactly how angry he was.
It did not take long for the limo to arrive at the hospital and before Arthur even had a chance to open the door Chuck was out and flying in to the hospital in search for Blair and Dan. He spotted them once he entered and for a second he froze at the sight of his ex. She was hugging Humphrey as he tried to comfort her. Blair had known CeCe almost as long as she had known Serena and this had to be a crushing blow to her as well considering both of her grandmothers were now dead. Chuck paused rethinking his course of action because he didn't want to cause Blair anymore pain, but then he saw Humphrey kiss her on the cheek and he couldn't take it any longer. Seeing the writer from Brooklyn getting what he wanted after what he had done was just too much to take.
Striding over to the pair Chuck didn't hear Serena and Eric calling out for him to stop. They had no idea what was going on obviously, but they had both known him long to know when he was angry and nobody wanted to mess with a Bass when he was on a mission. As soon as he had managed to reach the pair he grabbed Dan by the elbow pulling him away from Blair before pulling his fist back and letting it fly forward to smash against the other man's jaw sending Humphrey down to the ground.
"Chuck, what the hell is wrong with you?" Blair cried as she fell to her knees beside Dan and cradled his face in between her hands.
Chuck shook his fist to try and get feeling back in to the limb. That had hurt much more than he thought it would, but then again he didn't usually fight other people. He tended to keep his violence more mental than physical and now he knew why. "You tell her or I will. Did you really think I wouldn't find out you bastard?"
"This all feels eerily familiar." Blair stated as Dan stood up holding his now bruised jaw. She saw the two men glaring at each other and tapped her foot impatiently. "Is someone going to tell me what the hell is going on?"
"It's nothing you need to worry about Blair." Dan told her as he made a grab for her hand. "You have been through enough for one night and whatever Chuck's problem is he and I will handle it on our own. Let me take you home alright?"
The Princess of Monaco was not going to let that fly. She pulled her hand out of his with a shake of her head. "Obviously whatever is going on does have something to do with me and I am tired of secrets. When is everybody going to learn that in this town secrets don't stay that way for very long? Now either you tell me or Chuck tells me, but one way or another I want to know what is going on."
When Dan didn't say anything Chuck stepped up. "Blair you know I would never do anything to hurt you. All I want is for you to be happy and I was even willing to let you be with Brooklyn if that is what it took, but I don't want your happiness to be based on a lie. Humphrey was the one to send the video of us in to Gossip Girl."
"No, he wouldn't-"Blair shook her head trying to deny his words. Dan would not really do that to her would he? This was just Chuck trying to tear them apart.
"I wouldn't have thought so either, but he did Blair and I have the email to prove it." He told watching her crumble before his very eyes. He hated seeing how much this was hurting her, but he couldn't let her be with Humphrey after he found out the truth. "I thought you should know the truth. Unlike some people I honestly only do want your happiness no matter the cost, but I don't think your happiness should be based on lies."
"Tell me you didn't Dan? Tell me that Chuck is lying and you would never betray me like that." Her big brown eyes were welling up with tears and when Dan did not deny the truth and chose to simply look down at the floor she knew she had her answer. "How could you do that to me? Maybe the better question would be why would you do that to me? I thought you cared about me or was that a lie as well?"
At this the boy from Brooklyn looked up at her sharply. "Blair everything I feel for you is real. I did this for you because I love you."
The brunette let out a bitter laugh. "Oh yes I can see how you ruining my marriage would be what is best for me. If you loved me, if you really loved me you wouldn't have done this. Remember when you said that Chuck and I were alike and deserved each other? Well maybe you were right because nothing we have ever done is as bad as this. As far as I am concerned you are now officially a true Upper East Side elite. You play the game of manipulation well, but I am done playing games."
With one last look at Dan and then to Chuck she headed off in the other direction. When Serena tried to console her she simply shrugged her friend off and headed outside. She wasn't sure where she would go, but she knew that she needed to get out of here. She couldn't take all of this right now. The one person she thought cared about her ended up hurting her in a way worse than Chuck Bass ever did. When had everything gotten so screwed up?
TBC…
AN: So I was so angry with tonight's episode I had to write this. It will be a three or four shot on how I think the show should have gone and how Blair and Chuck should end up together. Don't get me wrong because Dair is cute at times, but Chair is just meant to be and I needed to get my frustration at the show off of my shoulders. Anyways, let me know if you liked this or not.
Please R&R like always!
