Set After 4x09 – except Blair decides she can be with Chuck and be a powerful woman. Life is good, until something... or someone inverts it.
As soon as Chuck walked through the elevator into his penthouse, his eyes caught Blair's for a fraction of a second, and she instantly knew something was wrong.
"Hey" He said whilst pouring himself a glass of scotch then settling onto the couch
"Hey, how was work?" She asked, wondering if Bass Industries was the reason for his troubled eyes
His hesitation and sad eyes confirmed her suspicions.
"It was okay, It's just... they've asked me to go to London for a little bit..." he sighed
"London? Well how long is a little bit?" she asked with hints of angst in her voice
"For about three weeks..." he mumbled
"Three weeks? I...I – " he cut her off
"I know what you're thinking, what are we going to do? I've been asking myself the same question all day" he said pinching the bridge of his nose
She moved over to the opposite couch and sat down
"It's just, we just got back together I don't think it would be good for us to be separated for so long..."
"I agree, which is why I've come to the conclusion that you have to come with me"
"Chuck, we both know I can't, I just got accepted into my internship at W, I can't just be like, 'Well I'm off to London with my boyfriend, see you in three weeks'" she said frustrated
"I know" he said, defeated.
She stood up and sat next to him then caressed his cheek
"Okay, well we both know I can't go, do you have to?"
"I've asked if they could send someone else in my place, but it's a big deal and I need to be there" he turned his face away from hers, but she took her other hand and turned his face back towards hers
"Chuck, it will be hard but we're... we're Chuck and Blair, if we can get past gothic barbie and a bullet I think we can manage a few weeks. It will be hard but we can do it."
He looked into her eyes and knew she was right, they were Chuck and Blair, Blair and Chuck... they could do this.
"Okay." he said
"Okay?" she asked
"Okay. Matt just informed me that my flight will be leaving tomorrow at 8 AM sharp so I was thinking–"
"So –"she cut him off "you were thinking you're going to spend the rest of the night showing how much you love me?" she asked, cocking her head to the side
"My thoughts exactly" he said, immediately pouncing on her and ravished her throughout the entire night.
