Just tell me what it is that's tearing you apart:

A/N: So I was really bored doing coursework and revising for a maths test so I decided to write a little story about Jack's return in S3. The title came from Bloc Party's "Blue Light" or "Bluest Light" I'm not sure which one. I was just listening to it and it inspired me to write this, so I'm not sure whether to keep this as a one-shot or a story with chapters so you'll have to review and tell me what you think of it. I'm still working oh my 'We Need Each Other' but it's really long and I've started another fanfic where B gets pregnant. So there both coming soon. Xoxo Beth. =)

Chuck was home from work later than usual and he knew that if Blair was there then she'd be pissed off at him. He set the briefcase down on the snooker table.

"Nate?" He called out. His phone then buzzed in his trouser pocket. He took it out and read the message from Nate:

Hey man, I'm not comin home 2night I'm wiv Serena. C ya 2morra.

Well Nate wasn't here then. He heard something rustling in the bedroom, it was either a burglar or Blair.

"Blair?" he called out walking into the bedroom. She was sat on the bed staring at the trash can, when he walked over to her she jumped, then stood up and dived into his arms. He put one of his hands around her back and wrapped the other around her waist and held her close to him. She breathed in his scent. This worried Chuck.

"Blair, what's wrong baby?" he asked her.

"I...I..I...N...N..Nothing" she stuttered. He kissed her temple.

"Yes there is, what is it? Did something happen at NYU?" he asked letting her go and taking her hand. She nodded slowly. Chuck sat on the bed and patted a spot next to him, when she didn't move he pulled her onto his lap, she rested her head on his chest and he smoothed down her curls. "Do you wanna talk about it?" he asked. She was silent. "Was it Humphrey?" she shook her head no. "Was it Vanessa?" she shook her head no. "Was it that stupid Paul Hoffman or that stupid acting club thing?" he asked she shook her head no again. "The minions? You and Serena fell out again? Something to do with your parents?" she shook her head no again. This was his last chance "Was it me?" he asked.

"No" she replied and began crying. He wrapped his arms around her waist and rocked and soothed her.

"Blair, you have to tell me what it is. Please?" he was begging her now. He'd kill the person that did this to her. She lifted her head up, he wiped her tears away with his thumb and kissed her nose.

"Jack" she whispered. Then put her head back on his chest and began to cry again. Chuck held her with a scared look on his face.

"What about Jack Blair?" he asked.

"He's back. And he knows where my dorm is" she sobbed.

"How?" Chuck asked.

"I saw him today, on my way to French History. He was lurking about in the corridors, then at lunch I saw him across the street watching me, then when I went back to my dorm I found this" she cried handing him a crumpled up flower card. Chuck looked at it the best he could still holding Blair on his knee.

Dear Blair,

I'm back in New York. Your little boyfriend thinks that he can outsmart Jack Bass and send me back to Australia did he? Well he was wrong and I'm back to take back what is rightfully mine: The company and you.

-Jack

Chuck tightened his grip on Blair as she still sobbed. Chuck looked at the trash can near the door. There were all trodden on and cut up pink roses. Blair must have cut all the heads off them then threw them in the trash can and stood on them. If he wasn't so scared and worried he probably would've laughed but he didn't even smirk. He just rocked Blair whilst she sobbed into his Armani suit jacket and shirt.

"I'm so scared Chuck. He said he's going to take me and the company away from you" she sobbed.

"He won't Blair, I won't ever let him take you away from me, I promise" he soothed kissing her head.

"What if he does to me what he did to Lily?" she asked crying even harder now and this terrified Chuck. Blair had a point. What if he did try to rape Blair? He wanted to cry but he had to keep it together for Blair's sake.

"Nothing's going to happen ok? I promise Blair, whilst I'm here he isn't gonna touch you" he promised still rocking her.

"What about when I'm not with you? What about when I'm at NYU and alone in my dorm, how are you going to protect me then?" she asked, and she was right. How would protect her when he wasn't with her? Jack knew where her dorm was now.

"You're not living in your dorm anymore Blair" Chuck instructed.

"But I..." she started but Chuck cut in.

"No, you're staying here with me and Nate. That way you won't be on your own, and Serena still lives just on the next floor and we have CCTV. He won't be able to come near you" Chuck announced.

"What about when I'm at NYU?" she asked. She knew that there was still a chance that Jack could follow her back to the Empire.

"I'll call Dan and tell him and Vanessa to stay with you at all times and I'll tell your minions too. Then I'll you take you to NYU and come and pick up and every day" Chuck replied. Blair's crying eased, somehow she wanted to stay at her dorm but she knew that Chuck wasn't asking her to leave it and live with him and Nate, he was telling her. She really didn't have a choice. "I know you don't want to leave your dorm Blair, but you have too. I need to keep my eye on you and make sure that Jack won't get to you and hurt you" he soothed. Blair nodded.

"I know" she accepted kissing him. He kissed her back locking their lips and soothing her, letting her know that she was his and he'd fight to the death for his one true love. No matter how hard he'd have to fight for her.

Chuck carried on holding Blair in his arms, still rocking her like a toddler for about an hour and a half. When he finally looked down at her she was fast asleep. She still had tear tracks down her face but she still looked absolutely beautiful, Chuck couldn't bear to wake her so he got up off of the end of the bed with Blair still cradled in his arms and carried her over to the edge of the bed, pulled back the covers and placed her in the bed. Then he took off his shoes, suit and tie and climbed into the bed next Blair. She jerked about and opened her eyes. Chuck smiled at her.

"Why are we in bed?" she asked.

"Because you fell asleep and I was tired" Chuck replied pulling her closer to him, she rested her head on his chest.

"I love you Chuck Bass, more than anything in the whole world" she announced listening to his soothing heartbeat. Chuck nodded and kissed her head.

"I love you too Blair Waldorf, more than anything in the whole world" he replied holding her waist. She closed her eyes after a while and fell asleep. Chuck watched her as she slept; she was defiantly having a good dream because she was smiling. Chuck knew that he'd protect her because he had to. He'd rather die than see her hurt.

A/N: So what did you think? Good? Bad? Terrible? Do you want me to continue? Please leave your thoughts and review xoxo
