Stranded
The flight none of them wanted to be on ends with a crash.
No-one wanted to board this 12 hour flight. But, fate has a funny way of working itself out.
They all sat uncomfortably in the chairs by the gate, waiting and hoping the staff would let them in. This was the first time they weren't flying in a private plane, but first class was just as good.
Blair was sitting straight in her chair avoiding Chuck's eyes; ever since he had told her he still loved her she was confused of her feelings. She agreed to go on this trip with him to get Jack to help them with Chuck's money problems, and now she was determined to still help him but she knew that included ignoring he said those 3 words.
Serena was holding Dan's hand tightly, because she thought this would be a relaxing holiday alone, to figure out where the two of them stood. She cursed that the private jet was with Eric and she would have to go on a long flight with Blair, especially after their fight.
Nate was sitting there with Jenny, the two of them discussing her new job offer in Australia. It was an amazing opportunity and she deserved it. He wanted to come along with her for support, after they caught up in the city, they were inseparable. Blair being here dampened Jenny's mood.
The silence between the 3 couples was thick and heavy. Until, a Gossip Girl blast echoed through Gate 7. They all pulled out their phones and read:
"We all know S and B had a fight last week, but what explains all this? Have they made amends or are they just unlucky? Keep me posted."
They all stared at the photo of Serena and Blair sitting awkwardly alongside one another, waiting for the gates to open. There was an even harsher silence before a high-pitched voice could be heard through the speakers:
"Attention all passengers, Flight 300 will now be boarding!"
They saw the woman standing at their gate and got up, all sighing with relief.
They all still knew that this would be a long flight.
"Let's see how this plays out, XOXO Gossip Girl"
