Author's Note: I don't know why I've never written a prompt series for Gossip Girl, seeing as I loved the show before they ruined Blair's character and crushed my Dan/Blair dreams. This series likely won't stick closely to canon, but you will get lots of Dan/Blair and Nate/Serena! Feel free to leave a review.


Dance

"Were you born with two left feet, Humphrey?" Blair Waldorf snapped.

Dan Humphrey sighed as he spun the woman around the glittering ballroom. "You know I dance perfectly fine," he countered. His girlfriend peered over his shoulder into the crowded room. He didn't know why they bothered attending this charity event in the first place. Blair rarely accepted invitations on behalf of her mother, but she seemed to have something to prove that night.

Problem was, she had been on edge all night. Dan couldn't figure it out. When they were getting ready at her place, everything was fine. She fixed his tie, he zipped up the back of her dress, hell she even helped him save (although his scruff wasn't nearly as bad as she claimed it to be).

In the limo she started to fidget and by the time they grabbed their champagne she was snapping at him like she did in high school. Her old venom came out and, although its bite stung less, he still couldn't figure out why she was acting like this.

As the song ended, Dan caught sight of the problem. Chuck Bass had two blonde beauties hanging off his arm in the corner. He didn't seem to have noticed them yet. Dan tightened his grip on Blair, placing his hand firmly against her lower back.

"When did you find out?" he murmured into her ear as they transitioned into the next song.

"In the limo," she replied, dark eyes downcast. "Serena texted me."

Dan glanced up and tried not to glare at the man. "We can go, if you want. I'm sure the tabloids have enough shots of us."

Blair shook her head. "I'm not going to let him chase me out of every event. He doesn't get to control me anymore."

There was the Blair he knew. Dan smiled and pressed a kiss to the crown of her head. "If you insist." They focused back on their dancing.

"Humphrey, I swear to God if you step on my new shoes one more time-" Dan rolled his eyes, trying not to laugh.
