Gordie stared at Blair in shock. Sure she had been pretty when they were younger but she was even prettier now. "Your suitcases are upstairs now," Mr. Lachance said. "Thank you. C'mon Serena let's go unpack," the brunette said to her blond best friend. "Okay. See you guys later," Serena smiled before following her friend. "So what do you guys think of Serena?" Vern asked, as soon as Serena disappeared up the stairs. "She's pretty," Gordie shrugged; truthfully he thought Blair was prettier. "Pretty? She's smokin' hot!" Teddy replied. "I dunno. I just like Blair better for some reason," Gordie said. It was true; there was something about Blair, besides her looks that drew him to her like a moth to a flame. "Hey Gordie. I'm gonna start going home now. It's getting late and my mom's probably already mad," Teddy said. "Shit! My dad's been on a mean streak lately from all the drinking. If I come home late he's gonna hide me," Chris cringed. "I have to go too," Vern added. The three boys made their way to the door, wanting to go anywhere but home.


"So wanna tell me why you wanted to come somewhere new for vacation?" Serena asked. "I told you. I wanted to experience some new place," Blair replied. "Do you wanna tell me the real reason why?" the blond pressed on. "…Chuck knows the places we usually go for vacation. I don't wanna see him right now," the brunette answered quietly. "Chuck again? You guys always are always on-again, off-again. Shouldn't you be used to this by now?" Serena sighed. "I know. We're always doing this so I should be used to this by now but…I don't know," Blair frowned, hating how insecure she felt right now. "Don't worry B. Right now we're on vacation. So forget about him!" Serena smiled, trying to lighten up the mood. "Your right, who needs that 'bass'tard?" Blair smiled lightly.


Look's like B came to Castle Rock to get away from a certain Bass boy and ended up getting over him…for now. S's pep talk might have helped B now but can it do the same next time?


"Hi Gordie," Blair greeted. "Hi Blair. Where's Serena?" Gordie asked. "She got bored so she went out to 'explore' the town," the brunette said, putting air quotes around explore. "What's with the air quote?" Gordie asked. "There's not much to see here," Blair replied. "Maybe not here. But there's a lot to see around here. Like this one time Chris, Vern, Teddy, and I went to Back Harlow Road and we found—" Gordie quickly shut his mouth when he realized what he was saying. "What did you find?" Blair asked curiously. "Uh…nothing. We didn't find anything," he replied. "So your telling me since there's nothing to see here, if I go to the areas around here and explore I'll still see nothing?" the brunette asked. He nodded, trying not to seem nervous even if he was. "O-kay…I'm bored. Let's go look for Serena," Blair pulled Gordie out the door before he could protest.


Looks like B and G are looking for S. Wonder if they'll stop for some…personal time? Let's hope S stays hidden for awhile.


Serena smiled to herself as she walked around Castle Rock. Although it was small, there was something that made it feel homey. Something her real home didn't feel like. "Damn it Chris. Why are you always getting your father angry?" a woman's voice snapped Serena out of her thoughts. "It's not my fault that he's never happy with anything but alcohol," Chris's voice replied. Serena realized she was standing next to a house, she's guessing Chris's, and that the window was open. She quickly peeked into the window and saw Chris and a woman pressing a rag to his face and neck. What surprised Serena though was how he had bruises that weren't there earlier. While suppressing a gasp she walked to the front door and knocked on the door. A teenage boy opened the door. "Hi is Chris here?" Serena asked. "Chris! Some girl's at the door for you!" he yelled before walking off muttering something along the lines of "Damn how did he get her?". Soon Chris was at the front door. "Er…hey Serena," he mumbled awkwardly. "What happened Chris?" she asked, eyeing his bruises. "Nothing," he replied hesitantly. "Chris, who is this?" a man asked. Chris suddenly tensed as a man came out into view. "Hi I'm Serena Van der Woodsen," Serena said. She noticed how his eyes looked bloodshot and how he looked as if he had just gotten over a hangover. He nodded before disappearing from view. "Your dad?" she asked. "Yeah…Listen can we talk later?" he asked. Without waiting for an answer he shut the door in her face.


Looks like S went to go check on C but ended up getting the door shut in her face. Meanwhile B and G look a little red in the face. Is that B's lip gloss I see on your mouth G?


"S, there you are! Gordie and I were looking for you," Blair called out, gesturing to her and Gordie. "Hey Blair. Hi Gordie," Serena smiled at them. But Blair sensed that something was off. "Hey what's wrong?" the brunette asked. "It's Chris," Serena sighed. "What? What happened to him?" Gordie asked. "I heard some lady, his mom I think, yelling so I looked into the window and saw Chris except he had a bunch of bruises on his head and neck," the blond frowned. "I wonder why…Hey Gordie. Your Chris's friend. Do you know why?" Blair asked. "…His dad always beats him and his brother when he's drunk or mad," Gordie replied. "Why doesn't anyone call the police or something?" Serena asked. "He's a Chamber. And unfortunately not many people care about the Chamber's…" he sighed. "What? That's no fair. No one's helping him cause he's a Chamber?" Serena asked in shock. Gordie nodded. "You okay?" Blair asked after Serena had been silent for several minutes. "Of course! So anything going on with you two?" the blond asked. Blair and Gordie looked at each other before looking at Serena. "Well…we're sorta dating," Blair smiled her face reddening. "B, I'm so happy for you!" Serena hugged Blair, while shooting Gordie a congratulating look.


Congrats G and B! Let's hope this relationship isn't the same as B's most recent relationship. All we need now is for S to get a boyfriend.
