Before there was her, there was them. They didn't have names, because to Chuck Bass, names were not given to those who would be forgotten after one night's indulgence.

Before there was it, there was that. Nothing so tangible as love, like, or affection, but drugs and sex and games he could lose because there were no rewards for winning.

But then there was both her and it and the game they played together was like none he had played before.

Because in this one, winning was losing and losing was winning. And if he lost, he lost it all.
