I think this will be a multi chapter story, but i don't know yet.
The first time Charles Bass saw Blair Waldorf, it had been a hot summer day in Central Park. Charles, who called himself Chuck, had only been six years old, but knew right then, Blair was the girl he wanted to marry one day, when he would be old enough.
- 11 years ago, Central Park…
''Hey Charles, my man! I want you to meet someone.''
Nathaniel Archibald ran towards his friend with a happy smile plastered on his face, ''Her name is Blair and she's really cool!'' He smiled.
Chuck rolled his eyes and sighed, ''Nathaniel, for the sixth time now, call me Chuck, not Charles, Chuck! C-H-U-C-K!''
Nate laughed and turned his back towards his best friend.
''So anyway, who is this 'Cool' person!'' Chuck asked, with a bored tone.
Seriously, Nathaniel thought everybody was cool, whoever she was, she wasn't worth his time. Nobody was.
''There she comes!'' Nate giggled.
Nate giggled a lot, especially when around Serena, Chuck's step sister. His father Bart Bass had married Lilian Van Der Woodsen, about a year ago. She had moved in the Bass domain right after her marriage to his father, with her 4 year old son Eric and her 5 year old daughter Serena. Even though Serena was quite the beauty, her intelligence was quite poor and so was her wit. That's why Chuck never really liked her.
Chuck prepared himself, the last time Nate tried to introduce him to a girl, the girl puked all over his expensive little shoes. Bart had blamed Chuck for it, and had punished him by forbidding him to use his father's limo for over a week. So the last thing Chuck had expected to be introduced to was the beautiful, petite, brown-eyed girl that made her way over to his best friend.
''Charl- I mean Chuck! this is Blair Waldorf.'' Nate smiled as he gestured to the girl.
The beautiful girl that carried the name Blair stood right in front of Chuck and held her delicate hand out to him. Chuck's eyes were glued to the girl as he took her hand and shook it slowly.
''Blair Waldorf.'' The girl smiled.
''Char-Ch-Chuck Bass.''
A few minutes of silence followed, until her divine voice was heard, ''So… Bass… do you always stare at girls like that? It's really annoying.'' with that her smile disappeared.
It took him only ten seconds to discover he was still staring at her with his mouth hanging open, and only five to realise her last sentence came out bitterly. Chuck was shocked, not only was she quite rude to him, she gave him a new nickname too. She is cool!
''Well Waldorf… to be honest with you, I only stare, let alone talk to people… who deserve my time.''
Blair rolled her eyes and with all the sarcasm she could muster, she snapped, ''Oh! I'm flattered!''
'Witty too huh? She is amazing!' Chuck thought, as he was surprised that the girl seemed to make him smile, like really smile. Unlike Nathaniel, Chuck wasn't someone who often smiled, let alone laughed or giggled. But with her it al seemed normal. Too bad he couldn't be happy long,
''I'm sorry Nathaniel, I need to go, my mother is probably worried sick.''
Blair gave Chuck one last defiant glance and gave Nate a shy quick kiss on his right cheek, then she hurried off with her strawberry sent trailing behind her. Nate blushed, and shyly looked to his shoes, what made Chuck scoff. While he secretly wished it was him, who she had kissed.
Chuck never ever thought he would see the day, some girl would make him smile and leave him dying for another meeting. But Blair wasn't just 'some girl', she was Blair Waldorf, something Chuck learned over the years.
Chuck and Blair hung out more and more over the years, first it was because of Nate, but after a few months they had become friends, best friends even and perfect scheming partners. Blair and Nate had become boyfriend and girlfriend after two years, much to Chuck's dismay, although he didn't really knew why at the moment.
But after Blair had told him about the butterflies she felt for Nate, Chuck realised he felt them too, for Blair. As the years passed Chuck thought he could take his mind of Blair, by drinking, drugging and eventually having sex with a lot of girls. But nothing worked, everyday Chuck fell more and more in love with Blair. One day he couldn't take it anymore, the hurt he felt when Nate kissed Blair, was becoming too much.
So Chuck decided to tell Blair how he felt about her, maybe she could give him a chance.
- 6 years after the meeting, Waldorf penthouse…
''Waldorf! I need to talk to you!'' Chuck yelled, again he received no response.
This was pissing him off, he knew he had reacted a little bit overreacted this morning when, Blair told him all about how incredible Nate had been on their date yesterday, but come on, he was in love with the girl for over six years now, and she hadn't even noticed, hadn't even cared.
So he came to apologize, and… to explain why he was so rude this morning. He couldn't take the pain anymore, and even though she would probably laugh at him, if there was the little bit of chance she would be his, he was going to take it without a doubt. His gaze searched the empty living area, maybe she wasn't home…
As he turned to leave he heard a sob, her sob. He lightly panicked, why would she be crying? Had Nate done something wrong again!
More sobs came, and he followed the sound, the heartbreaking sound. He stopped in front of her bedroom door. He hesitated, not really knowing what to do, but as her sobs kept coming he couldn't take the heartbreaking sound anymore. He slowly opened the door, afraid of what he was going to find.
With good reason.
''Blair!'' Chuck litteraly ran over to her and held her in a tight embrace.
She was a mess, her eyes were red and puffy from the crying, her hair was messy and looked like her brush hadn't touched it in over a few days, and still he thought she was as beautiful as ever. Her room was just the mess as she looked like a warzone. Everywhere were clothes and shoes, on the floor, and no single piece of furnite was standing on it's place anymore.
''Chuck! If you are here to yell at me again, I'm not in the mood!''
Chuck ignored her outburst and held her tighter against him.
''Blair, what happened?'' he asked with worry.
Blair surprisingly let him hold he and shrugged, ''Doesn't matter, nobody cares, why should you?''
Chuck's breath hitched, what was she talking about?
''I care, Waldorf! Now please tell me what happened.''
Again she shrugged, still crying, but she seemed to relax in his embrace. Blair was used to Chuck comforting her. when Nate had screwed up again, Chuck would be there, as usual. Why he was always there, she never knew, although she had her suspicions. Deep down she had known he always had more than just liked her, but still she felt special, when he wouldn't just comfort some girl… only her.
''My mother… sent me away.''
She began to cry again, but he stroked her hair and kisser her head.
''Where to?''
She sighed.
''To France, I have to live with some guy, Cyrus. Two days ago I didn't even know the guy, and now just after a few hours, she told me he is my uncle, and I have to live with him.''
His heart stopped, she was going, she was leaving! She was leaving him, well sort of. She was going to move to France, and he was never going to see her again!
…Fuck!
''Chuck…?''
Chuck looked down at her tear strained face and nodded, ''Yes Blair.''
''I'm scared.''
He needed to do something, he needed to try and comfort her, as long as she was fine, he was going to be okay.
So he lied, ''It's going to be okay, we can still hang out.'' And tried to smile, but it turned into as a sad one.
She gave him a small, sad smile herself and whispered, ''Liar.''
She knew him too well…
A few days later, Chuck came to her penthouse to visit her, she had told him she wouldn't be gone until a few hours, but she had lied. The whole penthouse was empty, even her room, the only thing that was left was a simple small coffee table and a chair. Chuck's heart was killing him, as pain shot threw him almost constantly. He sat down on the chair, as tears graced his face. He was only twelve when she had left him, and he would never see her again. After a half an hour of softly crying he noticed a little piece of paper that lay in the middle of the table. He picked it up, and the last words of Blair had said:
Dearest Bass,
I'm sorry I told, I wouldn't be leaving yet.
It wasn't my intension to hurt you.
I know, that are in love with me, Chuck.
And to be honest, my feelings for you were strong the moment I met you,
But it they didn't contain love.
I'm really sorry, I hope one day you'll forgive me…
I hope we will meet again some day Chuck Bass, and that you'll be very happy then.
Until we meet again,
- Blair
Chuck last tears had made it down his face, and he swore that day, that no other woman would ever humiliate him like Blair had done.
As he wept his tears away, the twelve year old Chuck Bass left the penthouse in silence.
So? Continue or drop it?
