"Hey Dan, what's up?" Nate said as he walked into the Humphrey and Van der Woodsen home.

Dan looked at him confused, "Nothing much…. Just had an Archibald randomly walk into my house, and you?" he let out a small chuckle.

Nate looked around the corner, "I'm trying to find Chuck. Seen him?"

Chuck wasn't at their apartment, his office, or with Blair. This was the only other place he figured.

Right then Chuck Bass strolled out of one of the bedrooms, "Nathaniel? What are you doing here?" He asked, shocked his best friend was there.

"Looking for you, actually," Nate said as he walked over, "We live together and I haven't seen you at all. I thought I might have to send out a search party or something!" He let out a small laugh, a tad serious at the thought.

"What are you? My wife?" Chuck said dryly, trying to walk past Nate, only to get stopped. "If you don't mind I have somewhere to go."

Dan slowly approached the two of them, "Should I go?" It would feel a little awkward because it was his house, but they both seemed kind of pissed.

"No, stay. I might need a witness." Nate slightly joked. If Chuck didn't tell him the truth though that might be what happens.

"Why? So he can witness you beat me up?" Chuck rolled his eyes, "Did you think that one through Nate?" He knew Nate wasn't a genius, but that was just sad.

Nate got closer to Chuck, "No. So he can say you threw the first punch." Anger started to engulf him, and he had no idea why.

"Hey, guys chill. How'd it get so tense in here so quickly?" Dan asked while he stepped in-between the two of them. Lily would kill him if he got blood on the carpet.

Chuck rolled his eyes once again and took a step back. Nate was the one with the problem, which Chuck didn't care about much to be honest.

"Sorry… It's just," Nate sighed thinking of how over protective he was going to sound, "If you're cheating on Blair it'll-" He instantly was cut off.

"I'm not cheating on Blair!" Chuck yelled outraged. It was insulting to even be questioned about such a thing,

"Some things are just a little bit more important right now…" He muttered out before walking past Nate and Dan.

Dan turned around, now a little angry himself. He might not be Blair's number one fan, but she'd gone through a lot of hell for the love of Chuck Bass. Cheating on her would be the cruelest thing he'd ever done,

"What's more important then your girlfriend who'd do anything for you?" Dan asked curiously in an angry tone.

"You're fucking sister!" Chuck wanted to shout, but didn't. That would only cause more problems,

"I really have to go. I'll convince you two later. Not that I even care what you think." He really didn't. They were Dan Humphrey and Nate Archibald, he was freaking Chuck Bass.

With that Chuck left the house and down to his limo that was waiting for him. Hopefully Humphrey and N didn't waste too much time.

Nate knew Chuck was up to something, and he wanted to know what. Right after Chuck left he left too. It was time to find out what was going on.

Damien ran his hand down her cheek, just to lean and kiss her lips softly. For a drug dealer he could come off as some what sweet.

Struggling not to show how nervous she was, Jenny kissed back. Never had she felt this way around a guy before. That rush of excitement from dating an international drug dealer had now turned into a never ending fear.

Their kiss got deeper and deeper. Jenny's mouth opened slowly as his tongue met hers. Damien ran his fingers up and down her back, sending a chilly feeling through her whole body.

Carefully he started to try and remove her jacket. Quickly Jenny pulled back. They both starred at each other, not sure what was going through the other's head.

"What do you say; we take this to another room?" He caressed her cheek with his smooth hand, while his other lay on her upper thigh.

Jenny gulped, knowing what he was hinting to. It was kind of obvious, "Yeah. Sure…"

Her heart started beating faster and faster with every step she took closer to the bedroom door. For a couple of months he'd been trying to get her in bed, but some how she'd always gotten out of it.

There was nothing stopping them this time.

Chuck tapped his foot impatiently as the driver waited at the red light, "Can you go a little faster?!" He could only imagine what was happening by now.

His driver turned to face him, "Sorry Mr. Bass, I cannot go." He pointed to the red light.

"I'm not an idiot, just freaking drive." Chuck hissed out, "Jen's in trouble…" He mumbled out, talking to no one really.

The light had been green for about a point millisecond, "Drive!" Chuck barked out. There was no time to waste.

Nate's limo was only a car or two away from Chuck's. Still he had no idea where they were headed.

A short time later they pulled up to one of those shady-upper class hotels. You know the ones. They look great and everything, but you can't trust them or the people in them.

Only Chuck Bass would call a place like this "important". Perhaps it was an investment of some sort.

Nate watched as Chuck got out of his limo and headed in. There was worried look taking over his face, Nate had never seen him like that before. Maybe it was best to wait in the limo.

"Damien… Stop. Please," Jenny said struggling to get him off of her. She couldn't go through with it. She just couldn't.

Fooling around was fun, bodies were made to fool around with. But sex was different. You should be in love with the person you have it with, at least your first time should be with some one you love. At the very least you should have a real feeling towards them. Sadly for Jenny, fear did not count.

As charming as he was, Jenny did not love Damien. The cold truth was, she never would.

"Come on," He said sliding off her top, while he kissed her neck in the process.

Jenny tried pushing him off, "Damien I'm serious! Just stop!" She moved her head, trying to avoid his lips. Still he continued to kiss her.

Realizing Jenny was serious; it only made Damien want her more. He grabbed her wrists and pinned her down on the bed. Kissing her lips, against her will.

"Get off me!" She screamed out as she kicked at him, it was no good though.

Damien was a buff drug dealer, where Jenny was just a skinny little Upper East Side queen of a high school. You do the math.

"Shut up!" Damien replied, holding her down while attempting to take off his own shirt.

The room seemed to go dizzy for Jenny. Noise started to fade out as her eyes struggled to stay open. Yep, she was going to faint.

Suddenly the bedroom door flung open. The impact of the door made a couple of pictures fall down.

"Get the hell off her!" Chuck shouted as he grabbed Damien from the back of his collar, throwing him to the other side of the room.

On the bed laid a topless Jenny, scared and with shock in her eyes. This wasn't supposed to happen. None of this was suppose to happen.

Quickly Chuck grabbed Jenny's hand and pulled her off the bed. They darted out while Damien still lay on the ground.

Nate watched as Jenny and Chuck came out of the hotel walking fast. It was hard to tell, but it looked like Jenny was only wearing a bra and Chuck's jacket,

"What the…" Nate said under his breathe as he rolled down his window to see better.

"It wasn't suppose to go that far! You were suppose to get me sooner!" Jenny yelled with tears in her eyes while she attempted to hit Chuck in the chest.

Chuck just grabbed her and hugged her, "I'm so sorry…" He whispered in her ear. That's when he realized Damien coming out of the hotel, "Get in the car, Jenny."

Politely Chuck opened the door for Jenny, got her in, then shut it tight. He turned around to see a very angry drug dealer.

"Dude! What's your problem?! We were just messing around," Damien marched closer to Chuck and the limo, "I thought Chuck Bass would get that."

Chuck laughed sarcastically, he wasn't even going to reply to that, "Stay the fuck away from my sister, or I will put you and your father in jail." He gave Damien a soul burning glare, "I am Chuck Bass, so don't doubt me."

Damien tried to push pass Chuck to get to the limo door. Bad move. Chuck instantly swung and stocked Damien in the jaw,

"I said stay away from my sister." Chuck watched him squirm on the ground for a moment before getting into the limo and driving off.

Nate just watched as all of it happened. He had no idea what to think. That was the little Jenny who use to give him those exciting butterflies, right? What happened to her?

"Take me home! Quick!" Nate shouted to his drive. With that they speed off.

"Jenny, you can't stay here. You know that." Chuck said sympathetically, hinting to the door, "Nate and I share an apartment, remember?"

"No! Chuck, please I can't go back home. Just for the night. I promise," She gave him her best puppy dog eyes.

A sigh slipped out of Chuck, "Fine. What are we going to tell Nate then?" At that moment the front door opened.

"Tell me what?" Nate said, smiling at Jenny. It was probably best to pretend like he didn't know what happened, whatever that was that is.

"Nate!" Jenny said happily as she ran over to hug him. It never felt so good to see his face.

Chuck starred in disapproval. This wasn't good, "Nathaniel can I talk to you?" Without a response he pulled Nate away.

"Chuck, before you say anything, I have to tell you I know." There was no change of expression of Chuck's face, "About what happened with that Damien guy at the hotel…"

Nothing changed except Chuck's tone, "Then you know it's a bad idea to get connected to Jenny at all, friendship wise or anything." With stuff like this, usually the more people who got involved, the worse it became.

"I made a promise a long time ago to Jenny that I'd be there for her, no matter what." Nate said remembering the fashion show, the night that everything really did change everything, "And I'm not going back on that now."

"You don't know what you're doing," Chuck hissed as Nate walked past him, "I've been helping her for months now, you can't swop in like Superman and make it better."

"Watch me." Nate said giving an evil smirk. He walked over to the couch and sat down right by Jenny, putting a friendly arm around her,

"Hey you…" He said sweetly.

Jenny snuggled into his arm, getting comfortable, "Why so nice Archibald?" She said with a small laugh, still freaked out of her mind about Damien.

His eyes met hers; it caused a soft smile to grow on his face, "Why in the world would I be mean to you Humphrey?" He gave her a quick wink before turning on the TV.

Butterflies started to storm into Jenny's stomach, the good kind. Though he was now looking away from her, Jenny kept her stare on Nate. There was this feeling she got from him. It was a feeling she got for him a long time ago.

"Oh no…" Was the only thought in Jenny Humphrey's mind when she realized what that feeling was.

A/N: Ok so I know this a lot more Chuck and Jenny stuff then actual Nate and Jenny but it's to set up the story line and everything Next chapter I promise it'll be way more N/J. And just so you this is probably a LOT longer then the rest of the chapters will be. I just really wanted to get some Nate/Jenny in there, and not all Chuck/Jenny (though I do love writing Chuck as a big brother). FYI things will get explained as the story goes on! Thanks for reading!
