Title: A Broken Promise

Chapter 1: Prologue

Chuck Bass awakened one morning feeling genuinely happy. This was not usually typical for this Bass as he was anything but a morning person. But he knew today was the day. A day where everything he used to oppose would be washed away.

Chuck's arm was draped over Blair's tiny waist, and her head was lying on his chest as a pillow. He looked down at his girlfriend- a smile played on his lips. No one would ever see him in this state- he was Chuck Bass after all- but only Blair Waldorf would. Chuck looked towards the window in their bedroom- his favourite was to wake up to the sun peeking out through the curtains- but it was cold dreary winter day and the room was black. No sun. Nothing.

Chuck loosened his grip on Blair and kissed the top of her brown tendrils. Her hair always smelled sweet, like vanilla and strawberries. One of the many things he loved about this woman.

After a few more minutes Blair began to stir and fluttered her beautiful brown eyes open. She looked up at him innocently- even though she clearly wasn't. Chuck grinned at her and stroked her cheek, "Morning Waldorf."

"Morning Bass," Blair replied softly. It was times like these he cherished the most. Feeling the closeness with her and intimacy he never felt with another woman.

Chuck's cell phone buzzed off the nightstand interrupting their moment. Chuck sighed and reached over to pick it up.

"Chuck Bass."

Pause.

"Yes I'll be there in ten minutes." Chuck ended the call.

Chuck got up from the bed and turned to Blair, "I'm sorry, but my inept employees can't seem to do their jobs properly. I have to go to the office." Chuck put his knee on the bed and bent over kissing Blair softly on the lips.

"Its fine, go," she encouraged with understanding.

"Well I have to take a shower; you're welcome to join me. I'd love your company," Chuck smirked at his offer.

"Of course you would," she retorted sitting up in bed.

"The offer still stands Waldorf," Chuck replied walking over to the master bathroom.

Chuck turned on the faucet, and stepped under the steaming water. Not even a minute later, he felt her soft hands trail his back from the top to bottom. He turned around to see the beautiful woman he calls his own and spoke, "I knew you couldn't resist," then Chuck proceeded to kiss her lips passionately forgetting that he had told his employees he'd be there in ten minutes.

Chuck opened the large oak door to what used to be his father's office later in the afternoon. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket and answered the call, "Hello gorgeous."

"Bass," Blair greeted. Chuck could tell she was smiling on the other end.

"What would you like Waldorf?" Chuck drawled.

"Just letting you know the charity gala for Bass Industries is tonight at eight, what time will you be picking me up?"

"Sorry Waldorf but something urgent has come in at work. Can I meet you there?" Chuck lied. He had to prepare for something else much more important.

"Yes of course. But I get the limo," she added playfully.

"Done," Chuck stated.

"Till tonight Bass," Blair replied.

"Don't worry I'll make it up to you," Chuck said slyly.

"I'm sure you will. Bye Chuck."

"Bye Waldorf," Chuck finished and hung up.

Chuck headed towards one of the paintings of the wall. He carefully lifted it to reveal a safe. Chuck entered his birthday- or his mother's death- as the combination and opened it with ease. He searched through the mounds of objects all the way to the back of the hole in the wall to find what he was looking for. He pulled out a small velvet black box from the back of the safe. He popped it open to reveal his mother's old engagement ring. The large rock was unique. It had a large stone as the focal point, and had diamonds wrapped around the whole band. It was absolutely stunning.

Chuck closed the safe and mounted the picture back on the wall. Now it was show time.

It was seven thirty and Chuck scrambled to get ready. He pulled out the best suit he had, a purple bow tie, and slid the box into his pocket. Now he was ready. Chuck felt his stomach churn from nerves. You don't just propose to someone everyday you know. Chuck took a deep breath when his phone went off.

Chuck checked the call display to see it was Serena called him. Why was she calling him?

"Long time no see Sis," Chuck teased Serena.

He could practically hear her eye roll over the line, "Chuck there's no time for games this is serious."

"Why what happened?" Chuck asked, the tone of his voice changing. Something was defiantly up.

Serena sighed and finally revealed, "Blair's been in an accident."

What? Chuck initially thought. "What are you talking about Serena?"Chuck felt the blood from his head drain from his face and his body became ridged.

Serena just sighed,"Whatever, just get the hospital right now!"

Panic began to set in and after a few moments Chuck finally replied, "I'm on my way."

Chuck bolted through the hospital entrance and made his way to Blair's room. Chuck took deep breaths as he saw her family around her. Serena, Nate, Eleanor and Cyrus gathered around her lifeless form. This could not be happening, Chuck tried convincing himself.

"How is she?" Chuck asked urgently. He's already lost two people he loved he can't afford another.

There was a moment of silence until Serena spoke up, "We don't know. She hit her head very hard the car almost flipped over. They put her into a deep coma."

Chuck stepped past her to get a better look at her. He felt his heart shatter when he finally saw her. Her eyes were closed but not how they were this morning. Scratches littered her face from broken glass and her skin was as pale as ever. Finally a bandage was wrapped around her forehead from where she got hit on the head. Chuck took her small hand in his and kissed her knuckles gently. Everyone seemed to have left the room giving a moment of privacy.

Chuck flashed back to one of the promises she told him.

"The worst thing you've ever done, the darkest thought you've ever had, I will stand by you through anything. I'm not going to leave you. As hard as you try to push me away, I'll push back."

"Do you promise?" Chuck asked his voice hoarse.

Blair looked deep into Chuck's eyes, "I promise."

"Don't leave me Waldorf," Chuck spoke his voice shaky.

"You promised," He spoke with no emotion in his voice. A stone wall began to form around his heart, one that took so long to break.

A staff of doctors rushed into the room and started to wheel the bed away from Chuck.

"Wait what's happening?" Chuck asked running to catch up.

"Sir, we've told everyone else. We need to relocate her to another intensive care hospital in Washington D.C right away."

"Is she going to be okay?" Chuck pleaded.

"We don't know sir." Chuck stopped walking and watched them load Blair into an ambulance with Eleanor and Cyrus in it already. This was all happening too fast. Everything is fine and they were finally going to be together and now this happens? Chuck desperately trying to hold it together felt Nate's hand pat his back. Serena came to his other side.

Chuck felt the urge to run away but felt his feet were planted firmly on the ground. He couldn't leave her like that. He wanted to make sure she'd be okay.

As the ambulance pulled away, Chuck felt his hope disappear into the distance with it.

With Nate and Serena around him, he pulled out the small velvety box to show them what was supposed to happen tonight. Serena and Nate's jaws dropped to the floor by the sight of Chuck's mother's engagement ring. He closed up the case and felt himself deteriorate, "I've lost her."
