XOXO Gossip Girl

CHUCK

An irritating buzzing filled the room, waking me from my restless sleep.

"Bass." I snapped sitting up, "Yes, yes, four o'clock tomorrow I'll be there. Thanks" I put the phone beside me, my head sinking into my hands. I stumbled up, my head pounding from last night. I walked into the other bedroom. "Nathaniel! Up!" I threw something Nate's head, a pain of cry erupted from under the duvet.

"Did you seriously just throw a shoe at my head man?" I shrugged,

"Sorry, thought it was something else." Nathaniel sat up,

"So what's on for today?"

"Nothing" I replied bitterly, "I am going to drink and feel absolutely nothing,"

"Look, Chuck I know that today's is Bl-"

"Don't say her name" I said my words dripping with venom. "She has chosen, and it wasn't me. Again." I stalked off, slamming the door behind me. Today was Blair's wedding day, and I intended on spending it drunk off my ass.

SERENA

"S, how are you going in there?" I rolled my eyes, I hated today, more than any other day. Because today Blair was getting married, and that meant that it was all about her, more so than usual.

"I'm coming B!" I called, going as slowly as I could. Blair stormed into my room,

"S, this is my wedding day! You can't be your usual snail pace, hurry it up!" Blair directed in her demanding screech.

"B, I'm coming. We've got 5 hours."

"I don't care if we've got 5 years! You are to have your ass out here in 5 minutes, the beauticians are coming at 10! Hurry Serena!"

I glanced at the clock, 9.30, I shrugged, undressed and stepped into the shower.

BLAIR

I smiled, admiring myself in the mirror.

"Today is your wedding day Waldorf", 'second wedding day', my mind corrected. I brushed off the thought, instead thinking off my groom to be.

"Serena are you ready?" I called,

"Coming B!" She walked out with sopping wet hair. "S. What are you doing?" I studied her she smiled quietly, "Oh never mind, your appearance will have to do. Come along" I pulled her into my room,

"Miss Blair, beauty ladies are here."

"Send them up Darota. Now you sit." Serena obeyed, "today I am getting married I am becoming Mrs-"

"Blair!" My mother screeched, "Are you coming down here or not." I exhaled sharply

"Mother I told Darota to send them up here. Anyways S, have some champagne and enjoy my special day." I sat down smiling broadly, attempting to rid my mind the doubts, which had unwillingly entered my mind.

NATE

I stepped out of my room, to find my best friend there drinking scotch. To me it felt wrong when Chuck didn't have a glass of scotch in his hand, I had seen him with one since he was 13 years old. Sometimes it surprised me how much alcohol Chuck actually could withstand, remaining sober for far longer than anyone I had ever met.

"What number is that?" I asked stepping into the kitchen, and taking a cold slice of pizza from the night before from the fridge.

"My second Nathaniel, I am in fact a changed man." Chuck laughed darkly, "For her. I changed for her, because if I became the man that deserved her maybe I would feel less... shit about losing her, about letting her go, but no. She married her prince, and then she divorced and then she-" he finished the glass, "it's been three years Nathaniel, why can't I forget about her!" He poured more of the amber liquid into his glass, sipping at it slowly.

"You love her. Chuck you're better than he is, and she would be so much happier if you just-"

"Just what Nathaniel? Told her, I've tried that, countless times, but she is with someone else, makes some stupid pact with God or she doesn't love me like that right now. I should just face it, she never loved me." I looked at him,

"Chuck you don't seriously think that-"

"She always wanted to string me along." He got up abruptly, "I'm taking monkey for a walk". I nodded, staring helplessly after my friend.

It angered me, how Blair could do this to him. How in some aspects of her life she could be so...selfish. She always found an excuse, a reason to leave him, break his heart. And sometimes, he deserved it, but this? I could never, and would never understand it. My phone vibrated in my hand,

OMG B is driving me CRAZY!

Help me!

xoxo

-S

I laughed, quickly texting the blonde back,

Emergency, my shirt is missing...

Hope I helped

-N

I smiled again, going back into my room, to rid myself of the shirt, that Blair would no doubt check was indeed missing.

SERENA

I literally thanked God when I saw that Nate had text me back a fake excuse,

"Oh my God B, Nate just text me his shirt has gone missing."

"WHAT!"

"Calm down, I'll go get him another, I'll be half an hour tops,

"But S-"

"No buts, I'm going, who else do you trust?

"Fine, but hurry." I smiled, thankful to be out of there.

10 minutes later I was standing in Chuck's penthouse,

"Nate." I called into the empty grey void,

"Serena, hi" He smiled warmly. Sheepishly I held up a shirt,

"Just in case Blair searches for evidence." Nate laughed. The room went silent the awkward unspoken question hanging in the air. "How is he?"

"How do you think?" my shoulders sagged, "She's marrying someone else, him no less. Don't you kinda think that would put a downer on his whole attitude towards life?"

"I wished this hadn't of happened, I really was rooting for Chuck."

"I think we all were, except for the one person who needed to." I looked down sadly. My phone began to ring, and on its screen the groom's name flashed before me. I sighed,

"Hi Dan."
