I do not own Gossip girl or the characters. The second part of the prologue is when Jenny comes back to New York for her interview (Easy J), that night Chuck realizes that he may be the cause for Jenny's sufferings and call it truce with Blair and tries to apologize to Jenny. Therefore that would be the end of Chuck and Blair.

Prologue

May 17th , 2010

As she sat on the train that was taking her to her mom in Hudson, Jenny Humphrey thought about how drastically her life had changed from the day she made those invites for Blair Waldorf. The same Blair Waldorf who she looked up to in her freshman year was now the one who banished her. But she wasn't going away because she was threatened by Blair, she was going away because she wanted to stay away from the glamorous UES that she always wanted to be a part of. She was going away because she wanted to run away from the fact about what happened between her and Chuck. Yes the same Chuck Bass, who tried to force himself on to her at the Kiss on the lips party. That was her entry into the UES, "that damn party" she cursed in her mind. It was surprising how she was the only one in her family who actually wanted to be a part of the UES and their lifestyle, but now she was the one who wanted to get rid of it, and on the other hand her brother and father who were never really charmed by that lifestyle had fit in perfectly well, with no problems at all. As she looked out she realized that the train had reached Hudson, "time to meet mom", she thought.

Chuck Bass was heartbroken but he couldn't understand exactly why. It felt like it was more than just Blair this time, he loved Blair more than anything in the world, or so he thought. He even bought her a ring and he was going to propose to her and then things would be fine between them. But that Humphrey came with his sister and ruined everything. Ofcourse, he blamed himself for repeating the same mistake that he had made at the Kiss on the Lips party, but this time it got worse. He did feel bad about what happened the other night. He had screwed up everything, he had lost Blair, Rufus asked Lily to stay away from Chuck. Eric and Dan hated him. Even Nate wouldn't speak to him or even look at him. But the worst was probably that he had lost a friend- Jenny, but now she probably hated him as much as the others. "Why does everyone have to leave?" he thought to himself. Did no one really love him? Or was it that he was bad at keeping relations?

"Sir, the Jet is ready", said Peter his valet. Chuck looked up and nodded to the guy, signaling that he was ready to leave. Yes, he was going to run away from all this. He was going to Prague and hopefully he can get over all this drama soon.

"Really Chuck! What were you thinking? You thought that after all that happened between us, you could still use me and get away with it", yelled the blonde girl.

"Jenny listen, I did not try to use you", pleaded Chuck Bass.

"Oh yeah, then why did you set this interview up, and bring me back to New York"

"Only to help you, to make up all that I did to you"

"Oh yeah, then why did you make me drop by the empire?" was that for me as well? Or to get back at Blair and make me the scapegoat, between the two of you?" she retorted.

"I'm sorry about that, I probably did want to get back at Blair, but trust me I had no intention of hurting you". He could see that she was on the verge of breaking down. He tried to put his hand on her shoulder and console her, but she asked him to back off and walked away.

Yet again, someone walked away from him without even as much as acknowledging his feelings.

"What are you doing here?" asked Blair Waldrof when she saw the dreaded Bass walked in, "wasn't what happened at the party enough? Or do you and your Lil J want more?"

"Blair, this is enough, we both know that we can't keep this going on. We're both very tired and fed up of this stuff. It's unfair that Jenny gets banished for what she and I did together-"

"Stop! Don't say it", even after all these days she still couldn't believe what he did to her and with whom he did it. But he was right, she WAS really tired of those showdowns and schemes. Right now what she needed the most was to start over afresh-without Chuck and that thought didn't hurt her as much as she thought it would.

"Look Blair, I'm really sorry for what happened that night and I mean every word of it, but it doesn't feel right. All of this, you banishing Jenny and me not saying a thing and pretending like it never happened. Then all that happened with Eva and we're back to our old selves. I just want all this to stop, alright?"

Blair Waldrof looked up at the man she was in love with, or probably was in love with. He seemed way more mature than the guy she had fallen in love with. She felt proud of him, he was doing something that the Chuck Bass she knew few years ago, would never do. Finally she spoke, "So? Do we call truce?"

Chuck Bass smiled, "yes we do".

"Good night then"

"Good night Blair"

As he walked towards the elevator, Blair shouted from behind, "and you can tell Little J that she can come back if she agrees to certain terms and conditions".

Chuck smiled at her as he got into the elevator, she had changed, she was much more mature than the Blair, who would declare war for almost anything and everything under the sun. The past one year had changed everyone so drastically.

Jenny Humphrey was waiting in the station. She was waiting for her train, she had good-bye to everyone at home. She didn't want them to come to the station to say bye, that's why she was surprised to see a familiar face in the crowd.

"Nate?", she said as he approached.

"So you are going back again?", said the golden boy of UES.

"Well yeah! Obviously what did you expect?"

"I don't know, I thought that you would probably stay", he said with an intense look.

"No Nate, I can't. You know that-"

"I'm sorry Jen. I really am"

"What? Why are you sorry?"

"Because that you came looking for me that night, and if I were there that day, then things would have turned out differently"

"No Nate, you don't have to apologize. It's not at all your fault."

"I know but I feel that somewhere I am the one that lead to this mess"

She sighed and looked into his eyes, they looked so beautiful, so sensual, and she could get lost in them. Could there be any girl in the world, who would not fall in love with Nate Archibald? Her thoughts were disturbed by someone's voice. The same deep voice that she knew very well.

"So you're off Humphrey?" said Chuck Bass as he reached Jenny and a man. Only then did he notice that the man was his very old best friend. What was he doing here with her and why did that make him uncomfortable?

"Chuck, I already told you that I didn't want to talk to you. Just leave ok"

"Really, you don't want to talk to me? Then what exactly is that you have on mind. What do you suggest we do?"

"Listen Chuck, I think you should leave Jenny alone, we all have had enough mess" said Nate.

"Nathaniel, my man just calm down, I was the one who was with Jenny, when you weren't. We all remember that, don we?"

Now Jenny was getting frustrated, "What do you want Chuck?"

Chuck took a deep breath, "I came to tell you that I'm sorry, sorry for what happened that night, sorry for letting Blair banish you from New York , I'm sorry that I brought you between Blair and I, I'm sorry for everything", there he had said it and now he felt relieved. Jenny was shocked she hadn't really expected this, it wasn't really what she had expected from him, though she had seen him apologize to her for the incident at the kiss on the lips party. "Its alright Chuck".

Nate had never in all these years ever seen Chuck Bass apologize to someone so intensely. Maybe he was really that sorry.

"Oh! By the way, Blair said you could live in New York if you were ready to accept a few of her terms and conditions".

"Thanks Chuck! But I think I'll pass, Bye take care", she said and then she went and hugged Nate.

"You too", said both Nate and Chuck.

As she walked away, the men made their way towards the exit, Jenny Humphrey turned around one last time to see if a guy had turned around too, and a guy had, just not the one she had expected. Instead it was Chuck Bass who had turned around. Even though it wasn't what she expected, she still felt happy for some unknown reason and she smiled at him and he smiled back.

Hey this is the first part. Hope you people like it. Please review to let me know whether or not I should continue. Since this was the prologue, I just wanted to introduce how things were between everyone before the story starts. The next part will be an account of all the times Chenny meet after this.
