"B…are you sure you're alright?" Serena asked for the umpteenth time since they landed in France. Blair was on her knees, retching out her previous alcohol and macaroon consumption in the airports dirty public restroom. Serena was now very worried for her best friend, she prayed to god Blair hadn't relapsed again especially with everything going on this past week.

"I'm fine S, It must have been the fight or something I promise this is not forced or anything." Blair sighed hoping the blond would calm down. She had felt sick the whole flight but as they got into the airport she felt it coming up and could not stop it from happening. Serena let out a sigh of relief as Blair flushed the toilet and stood up on wobbly legs. Quickly pulling out a small bottle of mouthwash and handed it to Blair. Blair thanked Serena then proceeded to rinse her mouth out before the taste of bile had a chance to sit on her tongue.

"Well this is a good way to start off vacation!" Serena chirped sarcastically as she tried to make Blair smile. Blair gave Serena the most pitiful smile she has ever seen but took it anyway feeling bad for her, she didn't need this right now.

"Come on S, Daddy and Roman are probably waiting for us." Blair said softly as she pulled Serena out the door and in the direction of the luggage pick up.

"Blair-Bear…Serena, It's so good to see you!" Harold smiled as her brought both girls in for a hug. Blair put on a smile for her father and tried to look normal.

"Ma chère, Blair you look tu es belle." Roman said as he pulled her in for a quick hug.

"Thank you Roman." Blair took the complement even if at the moment she didn't feel very beautiful. Harold had already packed their bags in the car and was ready to go.

"Come on B were here to have the time of our lives." Serena stated pulling Blair into her embrace as they started off after Harold and Roman. That was until Serena's cell started screaming .

"Well you're a hot mess and I'm fallin' for yo. And I'm like "hot damn, lemme make you my boo."

"Hold on it's my mom." Serena said quickly before answering the phone. Blair had to chuckle at her ring tone it fit her best friend well.

"Hello?" Serena answered, her eyes going wide as her mother stated rambling on a mile a minute. Blair looked at her in confusion.

"Mom wha…what do you mean he was sho…?" Serena broke off before she could finish a sentence. Her eyes started to well up and this scared Blair. Blair tried to listen to the woman on the other line but she was talking so fast that Blair couldn't make out a single word.

"Yes, of course Mom I'll see if I can get a plane right this second, see you in a few bye." Serena quickly shoved her phone into her purse and whipped away her fallen tears. Blair was no on high alert.

"B I'm sorry I need to go, tell your dad and Roman I'm so sorry….I'm so sorry B." Serena rambled on through tears. Blair was very scared for what had transpired on the phone between the two women.

"Serena please tell me what's going on?" Blair pleaded catching up to her friend gripping her on her arms to settle her. Serena stared at Blair like she had suddenly grown a second head. Blair now had tears in her eyes and she didn't even understand what was going on.

"Blair…I'm so sorry." Serena said for the fourth time already and now Blair was pissed."

"What the hell is going on S?" Blair asked for the finale time before she had a sudden felling that she was going to be sick again.

"Blair…It's Chuck honey…he's be…been shot." Serena said as more tears stained her face, she had to choke out the words because she didn't want to believe it was true. She faintly heard Blair gasp as she watched her brown eyes go wide.

"No."
