Hey guys! It's been a lonnggg time. I've just been so busy. But, I'm gonna give you guys an update on Risky Liaisons, and I'm starting something new. This is going to be a series of one-shot song prompts. Any songs are fair game, and you should review/send me a message if you want a certain song! It's probably going to be rated T, but who knows ;).

Oh, and it's Chair all the way.

This first one is inspired by It Will Rain by Bruno Mars. Enjoy(:

It Will Rain

"If you ever leave me baby, leave some morphine at my door. Cause it would take a whole lot of medication to realize what we used to have we don't have it anymore… Cause there'll be no sunlight if I lose you baby. There'll be no clear skies, if I lose you, baby. Just like the clouds my eyes will do the same, if you walk away. Every day it will rain, rain, rain."

Chuck sat and thought about what went wrong. He knew she had always wanted Nathanial. But he thought that had all changed when she gave herself to him in the back of his limo. There had been the complications on her birthday, with her going into denial and such, but he won her back in the end. And then, just when he thought things couldn't get better, he fucks things up and she ends up back in Nathanial's arms. Stupid Cotillion. Stupid Carter Fucking Baizen. Stupid… everything. Chuck didn't know what love felt like, but he knew he was the happiest he had ever been when he was fooling around with Blair behind everyone's backs. And now it was over. So he would drink himself into oblivion and forget about it.

Until he decided to call Blair.

She answers on the third ring.

"Hello?" It comes out as a hushed whisper, and somewhere in his mind, Chuck realizes she's probably still with Nathanial.

"Blaaaaaaiiiir."

"Chuck. Why are you calling me? At two in the fucking morning?"

"Blair, why are you answering at two in the fucking morning? Aren't you still with your dream boy?"

"He fell asleep and I… couldn't."

"Ah, see. His stamina is nothing compared to mine…" smirked Chuck.

Blair sighed. "Chuck, you're obviously drunk, and I'm tired. So I'm hanging up-"

"No, wait… wait. I, um, I…"

"Chuck."

"I'm sorry I pushed you right back into Nate's arms. I kept telling him that you were seeing Carter, and that made him angry. Really, I just hated seeing you with Carter fucking Baizen. I hate him. And you… were supposed to be mine now."

Blair's breathing halts a minute. "What do you mean 'yours' Chuck?"

"I mean… I've just wanted you so long and now that I finally had you, I didn't want to let you go and… I've never felt… like this about anyone and…" now he's slurring his words.

Blair sucked in a breath. This was going to be harsh. "Chuck, there never was an 'us' we were fooling around. Get that in your head. Get sober, and I'll see you at school. Bye."

But as she hung up, all Chuck heard was his heart breaking.


"I'll never be your mother's favorite. Your daddy can't even look me in the eye. If I was in their shoes I'd be doing the same thing. Saying there goes my little girl walking with that troublesome guy. But they're just afraid of something they can't understand. Oh well little darling, watch me change their minds."

"Blair, how are you", greeted Eleanor Rose, as she eyed her daughter's companion with interest.

"I'm wonderful mother… in fact I'm more than wonderful…"

Eleanor noticed Blair and Chuck's intertwined hands for the first time.

"I see…"

"Mrs. Rose, you look lovely. I hope you and Cyrus will join your beautiful daughter and I for dinner at Butter tonight."

She saw Blair's eyes light up when he called her beautiful.

"Well I was going to…"

"Oh mom, just get your coat and let's go. Where's Cyrus?"

Eleanor sighed, then moved to get her coat. "He's at a business meeting. I guess it shall just be us three."

The three of them left the loft, with an awkward elevator ride, and sufficiently tense limo ride there. Once they arrived at Butter, they were seated immediately. No one even attempted to make small talk until drinks and appetizers had been ordered.

Then Eleanor spoke up. "So… you two are together now?"

Blair smiled at Chuck, then looked at her mother and said, "Oh yes, Chuck told me he loves me yesterday afternoon. We're official now. I think it's been a long time coming, don't you?"

Chuck chuckled and squeezed Blair's hand. "Very true…"

Eleanor eyes their interaction and sniffed. "Interesting… it has certainly taken a while, hasn't it Charles. Why the delay, if I may ask?"

"Mom…"

"No, Blair, it's fine. Well, to be truthful Mrs. Rose, I was afraid. Afraid to love Blair (even though I already did), and put myself out there, just to be rejected and have her slip away from me again."

Eleanor raised her eyebrows, but did not comment on the 'again' part.

"Ah… how do I know you're what's best for my little girl?"

As she was saying this, their appetizer, the grilled octopus was being set down. Chuck immediately put some on Blair's plate, because he knew she loved it so much.

"Blair, do you have any idea how many calories are in that thing?"

Blair looked down at her plate sheepishly, her cheeks flushed red. "I don't have it very often mother…"

Chuck cleared his throat and said, "Mrs. Rose no disrespect, but I think Blair is absolutely perfect the way she is, and definitely does not need to worry about consuming extra calories every so often. It's not like she's heavy in any way, shape, or form. She's perfect. Always has been, and always will be."

Eleanor stared at Chuck with her mouth slightly open, while Blair just looked at him dreamily. Before taking a bite of her octopus, chewing, swallowing, and smiling at her mother.

"Now back to your question… I don't know if I'm exactly right for Blair. Maybe I will be, maybe I won't. But I'll never know until I try to be what Blair needs, every time, all the time. She is everything to me, especially since my father's death. I know I may not have treated her the best in the past, but all that has changed now. I've changed. And I sincerely hope you'll be able to accept me, as your daughter has."

Eleanor Rose was bewildered for a moment. She thought "Maybe I should give him a chance…" Just one look at Blair told her she was blissfully happy.

Eleanor cleared her throat and asked, "Could you pass the octopus please?"
