He laid in his bed unconscious for twenty four hours before he finally woke up to a splitting headache and a hovering Blair Waldorf.
"What are you doing here?"
He chokes out in a gruff whisper that scrapes across her skin
"I'm here because I love you"
"Get out!"
The tears that she was able to hold back while he was asleep pour out of her now and her body shakes at his rejection despite the fact that she knows he still loves her deep down.
"Shut up you sodding wanker, she's just trying to help you out!"
Chuck turns his head in confusion to see a very thin girl with long frizzy blond hair and familiar Doe shaped eyes. Blair gives the girl a half smile before wiping at the wetness on her cheeks. Chuck looks between the two in complete bewilderment.
"Chuck this is my cousin Cassie Ainsworth from Brussels England, you should remember her…"
Cassie nods and leans in to press a chaste kiss to chucks forehead, chuck and Blair stair at the girl with bewilderment as she sprints over to chucks min bar to rearrange the many liquor bottles that line his wall. The girl smiles wide at them both, over her shoulder before turning back to the bottles.
"oh Wow ya…it wasn't that long ago that we all partied together."
And then his foggy brain clears and he remembers the 13 year old waif of a girl who never ate and took pills like they were candy. He's surprised that she's still alive and part of him wishes she weren't because if memory serves, Blair Waldorf changed a lot the summer after Cassie's first trippy visit to the Waldorf penthouse. Changed meaning she got a lot thinner and disappeared for a summer to god knows where. The truth is that Chuck really doesn't want to know the details of Blair's foray in self destruction.
"Cassie's finished school early to visit and look at our colleges…isn't that nice chuck?"
Concern flashes in chucks eyes for a brief second before he turns over in bed so that his back is to Blair and Cassie
"Oh…well as much as I appreciate the visit you both need to get the hell out."
Chuck shuts his eyes trying to shut out the image of a very thin Blair Waldorf seeking the attention of anyone and everyone.
"Oh don't be such a downer Charles life is passing you by, so I suggest that you smoke up and live it."
Cassie bends down in front of him and lights a joint, blowing the smoke in his face, Blair groans and reaches over chucks body to snatch the joint and put it out in a glass of water on the night stand.
"Would you stop encouraging him, please?"
Cassie shrugs smiling at chucks disgruntled form.
"One of my best mates just died of a brain hemorrhage and I've left the only boy I've ever loved… but you don't see me wallowing in despair I'm living life!"
There is sadness in Cassie's eyes but her voice is chipper and light.
"Cassie ran anyway right after her roommate died Chuck…she ran away because she was scared just like you are."
"I wasn't scared!" Cassie snaps her eyes rolling in irritation.
"That's not what you said when you showed up at my house sobbing!" Blair bites back defiantly
Chuck jerks his shoulder away from Blair before stumbling out of his bed and into the bathroom to barf his guts out in the toilet. Blair is left to sit dejectedly on the bed watching Cassie as she floats about the room touching chucks things.
"Don't worry Blair he'll come back to you he loves you."
"I hope your right Cas…"

Sid Jenkins had been walking around Manhattan in a, frenzy all day looking for any sign of his flighty blond girlfriend. His feet hurt so he plopped down on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of art, and pulled out a splif and his lighter. He realized that the chances of finding her were slim to none. The only clue he had to her whereabouts was a blank post card she sent him a week ago with the words "New York I Love you, but your bring me down" scrawled across the front. (Sid tired his hardest to ignore the double message of that statement with all of his might) When Toney put him on the plane he said something about looking up Cassie's rich cousin Blair… but he didn't know her last name or were she might be. All he knew was that he loved Cassie's crazy ass so much that he had flown to New York City to find her and he wouldn't be going back until he found her and convinced her to come home.
"You're sitting on our step."
Sid looked up to see a group of very posh, stuck up girls looking at him like he was the gum under their high heels. Sid blanched and put out his splif before standing with a shrug his hand nervously touching his knitted beanie hat.
"Oh…uh sorry I'm looking for my girlfriend Cassie Ainsworth…you might know her cousin Blair????"
Penelope and the other girls faces brightened once they heard Sid's charmingly cute British accent… and the fact that he was in some way related to their Queen B.
"Blair Waldorf?"
"Ya that's it…you know her?"
"You could say that…"
"Were best friends, what's your name?"
"Sid…Sidney Jenkins…"
"Well come on Sid we'll take you to the Waldorf penthouse."
"oh kay… cool."

When chuck finished throwing up he took a bottle of scotch and heading back to the bathroom with a shower in mind, he slams the door behind him before the Blair can start screaming about how she hopes she doesn't have to recseitate him when he drowns after passing out in his own bath water.
"So how did you and Chuck get together I thought you and Nate would be married by now."
Cassie's comment makes Blair laugh despite the weight hanging on her heart.
"You and my mother... it started when I striped for him at his club Victoria"
"You striped -for Chuck Bass- in a club????"
Cassie smirks raising her eyebrows suggestively Blair sigh's her frown turning into a half smile that makes her eyes shine.
"Chuck and I we are just so good together cas---I don't know he gets me, and we play with each other."
"Mind games?"
"Yes, but more than that we fit, we're Blair and Chuck, and now I'm here for him if he wants me or not."
"I wish I could be like that…I know how I feel about Sid but I don't have the strength to be there for him or any of my other friends when they need me. ...and I end up hating myself and the things I love…because in the end everything turns to shit."
Blair dose something out of character and brings Cassie into a side hug letting her head fall on her shoulder and rubbing her back.
"Your being down right maternal"
"I'm a masochist."
Cassie nods "We both are."
Both girls sigh their thoughts falling on the men they love who are far away from them both spiritually and physically.

When Sid stepped out of the elevator he was greeted by a portly polish maid in a black and white uniform.
"Hello Ms. Penelope, Ms. Blair not home…"
Dortoa's brow crinkles as her eyes fall on Sid.
"Who is your friend?"
Penelope smirks and looks at Sid with amusement. "Sid Jenkins he says that he knows Blair's Cousin Cassie…" Dorotas eyes widen and she smiles at Sid genuinely for the first time waving Sid into the penthouse and completely ignoring Penelope who is left in the elevator.
"Thank you for dropping him off, Ms. Penelope see you later!" Dorota quips pushing the button to send Penelope down stairs before she gets a chance to respond. Sid looks around in awe his mouth practically hanging open.
"Ms Cassie out with Ms Blair now…you're the boy she loves yes?"
"I hope so." Dorota smiles and grabs his hand pulling him with her up the stairs to Blair's room. "We fix you up…shower and clothes; before the girls get back…then you apologize."
"But I didn't do anything wrong!!"
Dorota glares at him making him squirm.
"Ok I might have slept with her best friend…ages ago."
Dorota scoffs and tries to pull off his knit beanie hat but he swats her hands away saying. "Don't mess with the hat it's my signature!" Dorota rolls her eyes and walks out of Blair's bathroom, muttering about bad boys and scarf's…leaving Sid to his shower.
