Hi, everyone! As I told you before, I have been working on a new story and... here it is! It is based on the movie "The Parent Trap" (as you can guess from the title :D). However, things here will be different since it's Blair and Chuck that we're talking about and they are... one of a kind.
This happens after the 3rd season final but Blair goes to the Empire State Building on time and the whole Jenny thing doesn't happen that night.
So, have a nice time reading!
Disclaimer: I do not own "Gossip Girl".
"The Parent Trap"
Prologue
There she was, standing in front of him on the top of the Empire State Building. Her gorgeous chestnut locks were flying around her beautiful face and her ruby lips were smiling to him.
"You came?" he asked in surprise. No matter how much he hoped that she would come, he still couldn't believe that she was right in front of him.
As an answer of his question, she simply nodded and threw herself in his embrace. Her lips captivated his in a passionate kiss. When they finally pulled away for air, he mumbled against her skin, "I'm so sorry! Blair, I'm so sorry for all the pain I've caused you!"
"Shh… It's OK," she locked her eyes on his. "I'm here now. And I love you, Chuck Bass! I love you so much that it consumes me," she repeated the words she once said to him.
His eyes lighted up at her words and a smile approached his face. He took a small black box out of his pocket.
"I love you, too, Blair," he spoke as he got down on one knee and opened the box. A shiny diamond ring was inside of it. "Blair Cornelia Waldorf, will you grant me the honor and the happiness to call you my wife?" he asked with hope in his voice.
"Blair?" he asked when she didn't say anything. She was just staring into his deep dark eyes with her doe ones. He didn't get it – she just said that she loved him. So, why wasn't she saying anything? "Blair, will you marry me?" he repeated his question.
This time it looked like she found the words to speak because a second after he asked her again, an excited 'Yes!' escaped her ruby lips and she threw herself on kissing him again.
Three months later
"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here to join this man and this woman in the sacred bonds of matrimony," the vicar said and his voice echoed in the big richly decorated hall.
Chuck and Blair were standing before the aisle, looking into each other's eyes. It was their wedding day, it was their fresh start… It was perfect and couldn't be ruined by anyone or anything… After they said their vows, the vicar asked, "Do you, Charles Bartholomew Bass, take Blair Cornelia Waldorf to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you part?"
"I do," Chuck stated.
"And do you, Blair Cornelia Waldorf, take Charles Bartholomew Bass to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, until death do you apart?"
"I do."
"By the power vested in me by the State of New York I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride," the vicar said and Chuck didn't need a second invitation to kiss the woman, he always knew that he wanted to be with.
Ten months later
"Come on, B," Serena said encouraging her best friend. "Just one more push!"
"Come on, sweetheart," Chuck said. "You can do-" he couldn't continue because his wife cut him off.
"You don't get to talk, you Basshole!" Blair cried in pain. "Twins? How could you?"
She continued screaming angrily at her husband who got her pregnant with twins. She had been really happy at first but right now she just wanted to kill Chuck. However, after ten more minutes of screaming from Blair, two baby girls were born.
"Oh, my God!" Serena screamed in excitement. "They're so sweet, aren't they, Nate?" she turned to her husband. After Blair and Chuck got engaged, the two blonds decided to give themselves a second chance. It was only four months ago when Serena found out that she was pregnant and she and Nate decided to get married instantly. Right now they were happier than ever.
"They really are adorable," Nate smiled at his wife, knowing that in less than five months he'll be a proud father of a little boy or girl, just like Chuck was now.
"What will their names be?" the nurse asked.
Blair looked down at the little baby girl in her arms and said, "Grace Eleanor Bass." She looked up to Chuck, who was holding Grace's sister. When he met his wife's eyes, he realized that Blair was letting him to name their other daughter. He thought for a second and then spoke, "Emma Lillian Bass."
Seven months later
"Emma, sweetie, please don't cry!" Blair said desperately while gently rocking her daughter in her arms. It was one o'clock after midnight and Chuck was nowhere to be seen. 'Where the hell is he?' Blair thought. She kept rocking Emma in her arms until the baby girl finally drifted to sleep. Blair put her in her crib and was just about to go to bed herself when she heard a 'ding' and Chuck stepped out of the elevator. Blair walked out of their bedroom in the suite in the "Empire" and walked to her husband.
"Do you have any idea how late it is?" she hissed and crossed her arms.
"Calm down, Blair," he spoke and she could smell the alcohol he had token.
"Are you drunk?" she asked.
He didn't answer but just sat on the sofa.
"Chuck, we talked about that!" Blair said quietly and sat next to him. "I don't want you drunk around the girls! And I don't want you to come home in the middle of the night!"
"I'm afraid that you will have to deal with it, Blair!" he spat.
"Then I'm afraid that you will have to sleep on the sofa till the end of the week," she spat back, went to their bedroom and locked the door.
The same thing continued happening for the next two weeks. One night Chuck didn't come home at all and showed up at 10 am. He had a blond hair on his coat and awful pink lipstick on the collar of his shirt, which definitely weren't Blair's. And that was the last straw for her.
"That was it, Chuck," she told him. "I want a divorce!"
"Blair! I-" he began but she cut him off.
"No, Chuck! Save your explanation," she said angrily.
"Blair, sweetheart, please don't overreact!"
"I am overreacting?" she raised her eyebrows. "You know, Chuck, maybe I really am. But that is because I haven't slept properly for days, no, for weeks! Recently you have been at work the whole day and I get it, you're busy. But that doesn't explain why you come home in the middle of night, drunk on top of all! And it definitely doesn't explain why you have been cheating on me with some blond slut, who obviously has no taste!"
"Blair, I'm sorry," Chuck tried to comfort her. "It's just… There are some problems in 'Bass Industries' and I just-" he couldn't continue because his wife cut him off again.
"And you just what?" she shouted. "You couldn't just come to me and share your concerns with me! No, you just had to go and sleep with some random whore just because of your business problems!"
"Blair, I was drunk," Chuck tried to explain himself. "I didn't know what I was doing!"
"Exactly!" she shouted towards her husband. "Look, Chuck," Blair began, trying to sound calmer now. "I'm sick of your business getting between us! First, you tried to sell me for a hotel, and now you are cheating on me, your wife, the mother of your children, just because you have problems at work! I'll give you a chance to choose," she said and Chuck couldn't believe his ears. "Me or your business?" she asked.
"Blair, I…" he began. He couldn't just give up on his job like that. Just because his wife wanted him to do so.
"Fine," Blair sighed with tears in her eyes. "You made your choice," she said.
"Blair, please…"
"No, Chuck. I'm tired of all this. I'm tired of being all alone in that. You have no idea how it is to look after both Grace and Emma, when you have to change one's diaper and the other is screaming out her lungs and this lasts for all day and all night and… and you're not home to help me, Serena has her own baby now, my mother is in Paris working, Dorota had some family issues and had to go to Poland urgently and no other nanny wants to take care of seven-months-old twins no matter how much I offer to pay her and I just… I can't handle this anymore!"
"Blair, if you stay I…"
"The divorce papers will be signed and on your desk by tomorrow afternoon," she ignored him. "I will take one of the girls, you'll take the other. That's only fair. I won't even get things to court and I advise you not to try either. All I want is you away from me and my life as soon as possible! I'll go somewhere far away from here and my daughter won't know a thing about you. If you're smart, your daughter won't know a thing about me, too."
With those words Blair went to her bedroom to call Cyrus to prepare the divorce paper and started packing her things. She was secretly hoping that Chuck would make another attempt to stop her from leaving. But he didn't. Deep inside, he knew that he had just crossed the line this time and there was no coming back.
So, that was it! I hope it didn't disappoint you. I know it's short but it is only the prologue, after all.
