Hey guys,
What did you think of the finale? Explosive wasn't it! Well I can't wait for what season 4 holds for Chair. I think they will end up together, but this idea for a story came to me, and I thought I'd write it out none the less.
SUMMARY: Set 6 years into the future of the season 4 finale. Blair comes back to NY for Serena's wedding. She can't deny her feelings for Chuck but she loves Jamie. Lots of flashbacks and dramatic surprises. Both boys fight for her, but who will she choose?
Now this is going to be a full blown out story, if I'm honest I already have like 6 chapters written out and I know all the suprises and OMG moments coming youuurr way ;) I will therefore be uploading often. This will be finished by the time season 4 starts, I THINK. Not entirely sure. I haven't figured out the ending though, I may leave that up to you lovely people reading at home :) I know right now you're all thinking "CHUCK DUHH" But I made Jamie and I think he is lovely :D
Yes the wedding is Serenate's because, even though they've broken up now, in my head Nate hasn't become Chuck and isn't sleeping with Prostitutes and they will find their way back to eachother like Chair :) though Chair probs more definately ;)
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Gossip Girl. If I did everyother scene there would be Chuck and Blair interaction, yeahhh baby ;). I do however completely own this storyline, and my lovely wonderful people coming, such as James Williams, and Chloe Parker. I also own a Gossip Girl poster and I pretend that the show is alll mine, mwahhahahaha. Oh, and I have and Ed Westwick tea cup. It's crazy. And probably the most attractive and sexy tea cup on earth, fact.
R&R please guys :)

Mr. and Mrs. Archibald
Their story had never been set in stone.
It had taken almost of year of commitment for Blair Waldorf to realize that the man she had fell in love with, wasn't the man she saw before her anymore.
Of course, he was same man, he hadn't change. Sure, he had given up his womanizing for her. Chuck Bass had become monogamous, fell into a routine, and she had lost herself in this new image of him. She no longer saw him as Chuck Bass, the person who had once compared her to one of his fathers Arabians, the person who had said that's too bad, or the game player.
She no longer saw him as that man anymore. What she hadn't realized is that no matter what or who Chuck Bass loved, he was still the same person. And she had been in a relationship with a fraud, with the shadow of Chuck. He couldn't see himself through her eyes anymore, and he hated it.
It took one blow, from the original Chuck Bass to break the very foundations of their relationship. Had it been only a year before and they might have withstood it, because no matter how much they might have grown as a couple, they took one step forward, and three steps back, making them much more vulnerable then they had ever been.
And then their story ended, and they went their separate ways.
Blair Waldorf transferred to Columbia University. She spent two years learning to follow in her mothers footsteps and became a designer before accepting a job in London, and leaving New York and her past behind.
Chuck Bass slowly recovered from an incident in Prague. After his operation he decided to take hold of Bass Industries, and threw himself into work. He slept with one face-less woman after another, and eventually forgot about the one that got away. He built his father's business up, and thrived in success. He had become the man he had always set out to be, businessman extraordinaire.
Sometimes he looked in the mirror and saw Bart Bass staring back at him.
"Ms Waldorf?"
The blond girl threw her hair back into a high pony, adjusted her black glasses, flattened her pencil skirt and picked up a bunch of legal documents , holding them out before just as the door opened a brunette woman stepped out.
"Yes Emma?"
"Emilie." The girl corrected automatically and then cursed herself, instantly regretting it when she saw the look on the brunette woman's face.
"If I wanted your life story, Emma, I would have asked for it, now what is it that you want?"
Blair Waldorf was in a bad mood. She hated the way she sounded, as she spoke she heard her mothers voice coming out of her mouth, and by the way her assistant was looking at her, Blair must have looked just about ready to pounce too.
"Sorry, Ms Waldorf." The girl gulped, "There's some paper work here for you to sign."
Blair nodded and reached forward, grabbing the bunch of papers, "Anything else?"
"Yes." The blonde nodded and grabbed a white envelope from the desk and held it out to Blair, "This came for you in the post, and it looks very formal and important."
Blair grabbed the enveloped, shutting her door just as the blonde was about to add something else and settled back in her chair with a sigh.
She scrutinized the white envelope before ripping into it with unsteady hands, and then she sat staring at a purple piece of paper with flowers decorating the outside in carefree swirls and dark black inn creating words that caused her both happiness and fear, with hand-writing that she could distinguish at any time, whether it be 30 or 60 years into the future.
Dear BLAIR WALDORF
You are hereby invited to the wedding of Serena Van Der Woodsen and Nathaniel Archibaldon the 21st of June 2015.
I'm expecting to see you in exactly a week B, start planning your maid of honor speech.
I'll call you later, love you
xoxo S
She instantly decided to go because of the feeling it caused her. Her insides turned out at the thought of what New York would bring to her, and it was much more then she felt when she had moved to London, as beautiful and majestic as it was. Sometimes she felt the thrill wasn't as big in the new world she was walking on. The old one was inviting her with a screaming voice.
And there she was, one week on. Blair Waldorf standing in the middle of New York. Her dark brown chocolate curls were scraped back loosely in a high pony tail, overly massive shades hung on her petite nose, and her clothes as pristine as ever. She felt like she had never left as she smoothed down her skirt and prepared to walk through the double doors into the penthouse of a certain couple that had sent her the certain invitation.
They weren't expecting her. That's why when the blonde bombshell walked into the room carrying enough shopping bags to cloth a hundred her mouth hung open and her blue eyes sparkled with life.
Next thing Blair knew her eyes were clouded by blonde strays and there were blue plastic bags all around her feet.
"B!" Her heart must have skipped a beat at hearing her bestfriends voice call out her name, and her hands hugged the tall blonde fiercely. She wondered how she was able to go a whole 4 months without seeing Serena in person.
"You. Are. Getting. Married." Blair said, getting louder and more excited with every word. Serena's special grin appeared on her face before her hands went up so Blair could stare in pure owe at the diamond ring staring back at her.
"Arh!"
They collapsed in a heap after screaming excitedly at each other and going in for another hug.
"I've missed you so much S."
"I've missed you too B. More then you know."
They smiled at each other sweetly, and Blair Waldorf suddenly felt 7 years old again. She was 7 years old and holding hands with the blonde on legs that was next to her never wanting to let go as they played hide and seek with their other best friends Nate and Chuck.
Chuck.
Blair sighed slightly at the thought and frowned. Serena raised an eyebrow as if she had read her bestfriends mind, "You can't avoid him forever B."
"I know." Blair agreed with a nod, "I just wish things weren't so awkward between us, the four of us used to get on so well."
"But Blair.." Serena shook her slightly, "That was a different time. When my fiancé was your boyfriend, and your future. When we used to watch Breakfast at Tiffany's every day, when Chuck Bass wasn't head over heels in love with you."
"Things just fell apart in a matter of years." Blair smiled slightly, "I'm glad you and Nate managed to find your way back to each other though."
Serena's grin was back, "So am I Blair." She nodded, "The two years apart were awful for us were awful but…"
"You needed to find yourself Serena, and I understand that. So did I."
"You're better now."
"London and Jamie." I agreed.
James Williams.
Blair couldn't help the smile that taunted her lips at the idea of her current boyfriend. They had been together for 2 years and she had never felt more happy. Or, she could never remember feeling that happy. Though she was sure, in another life time, when she used to dress up in pristine clothes to go to NYU, she was still deliriously happy…
She shook her head to snap out of the thought and grabbed her bestfriends hands with another smile, "Where's Nate?"
"At work."
"Guess what I'm thinking?"
"Blair Waldorf is back in town." Serena's grin was magnetic, "Shopping time."
"Waldorf."
She had expected it. Of course she had. Here she was, back in New York after 3 years of not once stepping foot onto her old home ground, and she knew that she would evidently bump into him. What she hadn't expected was the way her heart jumped at the sound of his voice, even years after they had moved on.
She turned around a little on her chair and smiled at the tall figure beside her. Many people were scared of Chuck Bass. Scared of the fact he was one of the most rich and powerful men in New York, scared of his smirk, and scared of his personality. And rightly so, Blair thought as she took in his appearance.
He look powerful as he stood beside her in his dark blue Armani suit, hands put neatly in pockets and a small smile on his face. He hadn't changed at all, Blair noted. Sure his face had lost some of it's previous baby-like youth, and he had developed an even stronger jaw then before, if it was possible. He truly looked like a man without an ounce of his previous youth. Maybe that thought scared her.
"Bass." She forced a smile, despite the thoughts that were rushing around in her mind. She was trying to block out the floods of memories that were inevitable to play up again as soon as she met the person behind them. Somehow, he proved that they happened, "Long time no see."
"And what brings you back to the streets of New York?" He took a seat now and ordered a scotch. He still smelled the same, smirked the same, looked the same, drank the same. And yet, there was something so different there.
"I'm surprised you even had to ask." She takes a sip of her cocktail, and then raises an eyebrow, "Unless you and Archibald don't talk anymore."
"I didn't realize the Van Der Woodsen Archibald wedding spectacular was going to catch your eye so much that you would catch the first plane back." Had she caught a slight bit of resentment when Chuck had spoken about S's wedding, or was it just in her head?
"My bestfriends are getting married." Blair kept her voice the same, "How could I resist?"
"And here's me thinking that you were staying away for a reason."
She frowned, "And what reason would that be Chuck?"
There was silence for a moment and then he laughed slightly, "Well the London air seems to have something more fresh in it then the busy New York one."
"Air." Blair repeated, attempting, and almost positively failing to hold back her resentment for his lame cover-up.
"You know what they say."
"No." She shook her head, "I don't."
"Well neither do I, but the English air must have something in it, otherwise you wouldn't have stayed away for so long."
She almost scoffed at that. Almost.
"You know, it was great catching up, Bass." She nodded, pursing her lips, "But I have things to do, so..."
"See you at the rehearsal dinner."
She took a deep breathe in, and then forced herself to nod. Again. Noting that she had to stop acting like a nodding dog toy. Blair grabbed her purse and rose from her seat, "See you then."
"You know what they say about the maid of honor and best man."
"Yes actually I do." Blair smiled, "They hate each others guts."
She turned and left quickly, before she did something she would regret. She hated how they could go from meeting again after 3 years of not seeing each other to banter in seconds. Hated the effect he had on her, and hated the way he made her feel.
She didn't know what was worse. The fact that she had to carry on dealing with those things she hated ever so much. Or the fact that she couldn't wait to, and loved to deal with them.
"Ready to go?" Serena appeared out of the toilet and smiled, "I think I'm going to fall over with the amount of shopping bags we have."
Blair nodded.
"What's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost."
She didn't bother replying. The truth was, she had.
Yay this chapter had Chair interaction, woot woo ;)
The next might have some mild interaction, but more importantly you get to meet Jamie ^^ yay ;). Believe me he is a sweetheart.
Then after that things get juicey and a lot of OMG moments and juisy gossip filled storylines will be coming your way to relax your GG cravings during Summer.
Please tell me what you guys think, Reviews make it worthwile to carry on writing.
Thanks loads :D
