Hey guys, This is my first Gossip Girl fic. I adore Chuck and Blair together, but when I saw Chuck and little Henry together in the flash-forward my heart exploded with pure joy. I am a sucker for character development, so Chair is like kryptonite to me. My first fic in over a year. So please be kind. I hope you enjoy. Fluffiness ensues. Reviews make my heart very happy.

Blair hadn't been feeling well the last few days, she was nauseous, very nauseous. She figured it was seasickness because she and Chuck have been honeymooning on the yacht for 3 weeks now, but Chuck was incessantly and unusually worried about her. Blair adored how caring he'd been since their marriage, but it was beginning to drive her crazy. She was checking her calendar for work things, when it hit her. She was late. Nauseous, late, and tired, it could only mean one thing. Could the newly married Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bass be expecting a baby?

"There you are, I've been worried about you." Chuck says, brushing a strand of hair back on Blair's head and kissing her on the cheek.

"I'm perfectly healthy, Chuck." Blair says smiling.

"But you've been throwing up."

"I have." Blair teases matter of factly.

Chuck is silent for a few moments, and then he finally speaks. "No." He whispers in realization.

"Yes."

"You… you're…. pregnant…?"

"Yes, I am, we're having a baby."

"We're having a baby." Chuck repeats in shock.

"I thought you wanted a child."

"I do Blair, of course I do, but this is so… soon."
"We'll be fine. I know being a father scares you, but it'll be fine you'll see."

"Your confidence in me is overwhelming."
"I don't think you realize how capable of love you are."

"I'll love this baby so much, I promise."

"I know you will."

"I love you, Blair.

"I love you too, so much."

"We'll be fine."

"I think so too."

"Chuck & Blair."

"Blair and Chuck."

"And now, a baby."

"Our baby."

"I think it'll be a boy."

Blair smiles." You do?"

"Yes, I don't think I could ever love another girl as much as I love you."

"I think if it was your daughter, you may be surprised at yourself."
"Maybe, we'll have to see."
"We love so powerfully, the two of us."

Chuck smiles. "And then there were three." He says, softly kissing Blair's stomach.

Blair is now 3 days away from her due date and crabby as ever. Her feet are always achy and swollen and she detests her large baby belly even though she loves feeling the baby kick and wiggle inside of her and Chuck tells her that pregnancy only makes her more beautiful. Chuck's been absolutely wonderful through the entire thing and Blair could not be any more grateful.

"No baby yet, huh?" Chuck teases, kissing Blair on the cheek when he walks through the door.

"No, I think this baby is much more stubborn than you and I put together." Blair says, placing her hands on her belly

"Blair, your due date is 3 days from now."
"I know, but after those Braxton Hicks contraction three days ago, I can't afford to get my hopes up, and I'm having more too."

"Soon enough."
"Chuck, can you make me some tea?"

"Yes."

"Thank you, you're an angel."

Chuck laughs, "No I'm not. I just love you."

Blair grimaces, the baby has started to kick harder and her belly is cramping really bad. She tries to wiggle around before she feels what she just knows is a real contraction. Blair knows she can't go to the hospital until her contractions pick up, so she decides to wait it out a little longer, but then a really strong contraction comes and she realizes she's sitting in a pile of fluids. Her water broke.

"CHUCK!" Blair screams.

Chuck runs into the living room to see Blair clutching her belly. "Blair, what's wrong?"

"It's time, my water just broke."

Chucks jaw practically falls to the floor. "Oh, let's get you to the hospital."

"Chuck, no!" Blair cries.

"Blair, we have to, your doctor said if your water broke on its own we had to get you to the hospital immediately."
"Please, just let me wait. I'm not ready to go through having this baby." Blair says crying.

Chuck kneels down in front of her and takes her hand in his. "Shhhh, yes you are. You are just scared, but we can be scared together, okay?"
"No, I'm not strong enough."
"You are, I know it, but if you ever doubt that you are, just let me carry you through this."

Blair smiles a little. "Okay."

"Now, let's go have a baby."

When they get to the hospital Blair is already 6 centimeters dilated.

"How are you feeling?" Chuck asks, brushing Blair's seat beaded hair out of her face.

"Like I just want this baby to come out of me already, I'm exhausted." Blair complains

"Well, you are doing quite amazingly and you look so beautiful."
"You can't be serious, I look pitifully gross, I'm sweaty and pale, and I'm not even wearing any makeup."
"No, I'm serious, right now in this very moment, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. You are carrying this little life inside of you and I have never in my life seen you look more radiant, Blair."

"You can be such a charmer when you want to be, Chuck Bass."

"Care to make any final wagers on the gender of our child?" Chuck and Blair had decided to keep the gender of their child a mystery.

"Girl."

Chuck smiles. "I'm still sticking with boy."
"Well, I'll be fine either way, I just want our child to be healthy."

"Then maybe you should be more patient."
"Don't mock me, Bass."
Chuck laughs "Sorry."
A few hours later the doctor comes in to check Blair's progress. "Well good news, Blair," She says, "You're fully dilated, which means that you can start pushing. You will get to meet your baby soon."
"Well Bass, get ready for me to turn your fingers purple." Blair teases.

"Okay, just don't break the wedding band." Chuck jokes.

"Alright, here comes your next contraction, Blair, I want you to take a deep breath, hold it, and bear down as hard as you can." The doctor instructs.

Blair pushes and moments later she is out of breath, and collapsed on the bed. "Oww, it hurts.'" Blair yells.

"You're doing so well, B." Chuck says.

After 45 more minutes of pushing, the doctor says the baby is crowning, and Blair is exhausted.

"I can't do this anymore." she declares.

"Yes you can, you're so close, I can tell that the baby's head is right there." Chuck encourages.
Blair smiles. "Chuck Bass, have you been sneaking a peek at my lady business."

Chuck chortles. "Wouldn't be the first time."
Blair takes Chucks hand and pushes as hard as she can. "Okay Blair, one more push, your baby's head is out." The doctor announces.

"Wait, does the baby have hair?" Blair asks, smiling at Chuck.

Chuck smiles back at her, "A whole head full of dark hair." He says, his eyes watering up.

Before anyone knows it a loud cry fills the room. "Congratulations you two, you have a son."
"It's a boy, Chuck. We have a son." Blair says, through watery tears.

"He's beautiful." Chuck whispers in awe.

"And he's healthy."

"What's his name going to be?" Chuck asks.

"His name is Henry, Henry Charles Bass." Blair says smiling.

Chuck grins back at her. "We are naming our son partially after me?"
"Don't be silly, you know I would not have it any other way. You are the most wonderful, strong, and loving man I have ever known, and exactly the kind of man that I want our son to grow up to be."

"I love you."

"Henry and I love you too, so much."

"I thought I wasn't ready, but look at him, he's perfect, I can't imagine any other life now."

"I'm proud of you, Chuck."

"I'm proud of you too, Blair, you created the most wonderful, beautiful, perfect little boy."
"No, we created him, but he is quite perfect."

"He's so tiny."

"And perfect."
"Yes, he is."

"He's the best thing I've ever done."
"I would have to agree."
"Welcome to the world, Henry Charles Bass. We are your parents and we love you so, so much already."

After the nurses get all of Henry's measurements and make sure that he's healthy they get his handprints and foot prints. Then, at last, Chuck and Blair are alone with their new son.

"Well, hello there, Henry, you perfect boy. Mommy loves you so much " Blair coos as Henry squeezes her finger.

"He's a handsome little guy, and he looks just like you. 7 pounds 5 ounces of mini Blair" Chuck says, staring at his family in wonderment.

Blair smiles. "Well, I think Henry looks just like his Daddy."

"He's got your eyes though."

"You ready to hold him?"
"Blair, I can't. look how fragile he is."
"He's your son, Chuck. You aren't going to hurt him."
"Okay, I'm ready."

"Henry, who is that, huh? That's your Daddy. Come say hi." Blair coos ,placing Henry in her husband's arms. "You'll be fine, just make sure you support his head." She says, giving Chuck an encouraging smile.

"Hi, Henry, it's your Daddy. I love you." Chuck says, kissing the top of the baby's head.

"See, he likes it in your arms." Blair says smiling, and then Henry starts crying, but Chuck almost instinctively knows what to do.

"Shhhh, Henry, it's okay, Daddy's got you, you're just fine. I promise." Chuck whispers, rocking Henry gently.

"You are so good with him." Blair encourages.

"You were right, as soon as I had him in my arms I knew exactly what to do."

"Aren't I always right, Bass?" Blair teases.

Chuck smiles, "Your mother is a confident woman, Henry."

"Can I hold him now? I think Henry wants his Mommy."

"Blair, Henry's asleep, I don't want to wake him up."

"Look how protective you are of him already. I knew you'd be wonderful."

"It helps that he's the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, aside from his mother of course." Chuck says, kissing Blair's forehead.

"Look Chuck, he's opening his little eyes. Oh, my boy, is so perfect. I think I'm in love with him." Blair gushes.

"Oh look, somebody's two hours old and he's already got that Bass charm. I taught him well."

"Yes you did."

"Did you have a nice nap, my son?" Chuck coos, still looking at Henry's big, brown eyes in wonderment.

"I want to hold my perfect son."

"Henry, I think you've stolen your mommy's heart already." Chuck says, handing Blair the baby

"Yes he has, just look at his perfect cheeks."
"He's got my lips."

"Henry looks just like you."

"I guess he does."

"He's brand new and I still wonder how I ever lived a life that was without him."

"I feel the same way."

"I am very proud of you, I know hard it can be for you let love inside your heart."
"He's my son, I want him to love me. I don't want us to be like my father and I."
"I know your scared of that, but the way you look at Henry, your eyes are so full of genuine love and pure happiness, Bart never even dared look at you like that. You, Chuck, are more of a man, more of a father than he ever was." Blair says, looking deeply into her husband's watery, brown eyes.

Chuck smiles letting Henry grasp onto his thumb with a firm grip. "You're my greatest accomplishment, I will always love you Henry, and I will always be here for you." He says, a tear dripping down his face.

"I love you, you already are the most wonderful father. Henry and I are both very lucky to have you." Blair says smiling.

"Thank you Blair, for giving me a life that I can finally be proud of."
"You've always had it in you to be the great man that you are, I just guided you to it."

"I'm complete now, I have everything."

"We love you so very much, Henry and I."

"I love you, Blair. And Daddy loves you so much Henry, more than anything. Always."

Hope you all enjoyed the first chapter. I know you probably want to see other characters, and I'm happy to say that everyone will meet Henry in the next chapter.
