Chapter 2

Chuck sat in his office thinking about what had happened this morning. He had not known how much he had hurt Blair. Even his son knew. How was he going to fix this? If he didn't figure it out soon he was going to lose the only family he had left. He had to talk to Blair and explain why he had been so distant lately. Chuck stood up straightened his jacket and told his secretary to cancel his appointments for the rest of today and tomorrow. He knew that it was going to take more than two day to work out all of their problems, but he had to start somewhere.

Blair sat at the kitchen table flipping through a magazine when Serena came into the room. Grant and Serena were the two people who were getting her through this time. If it weren't for them she would have gone crazy by now. Putting down the magazine she greeted her best friend, "Hi S."

"Hey B, how are you?" Serena knew that was a loaded question. Blair had been so strong lately, but Serena could tell Blair was starting to lose hope.

"I have no idea. I really have no idea. I don't know what to do anymore."

"Have you talked to Chuck about what is going on?" Serena knew she had to get the couple to talk about their problems or else it would be over. She wasn't sure how Blair would handle that.

"I talked to him this morning. I asked if he was having an affair. He denied it of course. I mean why would he admit it. But for some reason I believe him. I really want it to be true. If only I figure it out. I use to know him so well, but now I feel like I don't know him at all." Blair had tears streaming down her face. She was so tired of crying. She just wanted to go back to before. Back when she was happily married.

"Blair, I know this is hard. But Bart's death really affected Chuck." Before Serena could finish Blair interrupted her.

"I know Serena. God, do I know, but it has been two months. I don't want to put a time limit on his grieving, but him pushing me away is killing me. I need him S. I need him like I need air, especially right now."

Serena gave Blair a look of confusion. Why did Blair need Chuck so much right now? What else was going on? As Serena was about to ask Chuck walked into the room.

"Hello ladies." Chuck could tell he had interrupted something. But saving his marriage was more important than whatever his wife and step-sister were talking about.

Blair was shocked to see her husband standing in their kitchen at 11 am. He was never home at this hour. She was confused by his appearance. "What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be at work?"

"Well, I cancelled my appointments for today and tomorrow. I was hoping we could spend the day together." Chuck realized after her question that maybe she didn't want to be around him. Was it possible he had already pushed her completely away?

Serena could tell that Blair needed a little push to start talking to Chuck. If she didn't than Blair might do something stupid. "That's great. Well, I will get out of your hair so you two can spend some quality time together. Do you want me to take Grant? I would love to spend some time with my godson." Serena was really hope Blair would take her up on her offer. It would be so much easier for Chuck and Blair to talk without a one year old running around.

"No that's not necessary S." Blair knew that if Chuck and she had a fight she wanted to be able to go look at her baby and remember the good times she and Chuck had. "I will call you later."

Serena was somewhat disappointed that Blair didn't let her take Grant, but she wasn't surprised. She knew Grant was really the only hope that the couple would work things out. "Alright, I will talk to you later. Bye Chuck."

"Bye Serena." Chuck was glad to finally be alone with Blair. "Where's Grant?" He needed to know how long he would have to try and start explaining his actions.

"He's napping. He just went down." Blair now wished that she had put him down earlier. She knew it was wrong to not want to be alone with her husband, but she was afraid that she was not going to like whatever he had to say.

Chuck knew he had about two hours before the boy woke up. That would hopefully give him enough time to get Blair to be more open about working on their marriage. Chuck slowly pulled the chair across from Blair and sat down. "I was hoping we could talk."

Hesitantly, Blair said, "Ok." She was praying that he wanted to talk about fixing their marriage and not asking her for a divorce.

Chuck saw the look of fear on Blair's face. He could tell she was concerned about the conversation. "I love you. I always have. I know that I haven't been around the last couple of months, but I want to change that. I want to be a better husband and father. I want our marriage back."

Blair was relieved by Chuck's speech. She wanted that too. She knew it was going to take time, but she was going to fix her marriage if it was the last thing she did. "I want that too Chuck. I love you so much. I have missed you. You need to know that you have hurt me. I know that your father dying was difficult, but you can't push me away. I'm here for you. It's my job as your wife to support you. I will always support you through anything."

Chuck was thrilled that Blair still wanted him. It made him the happiest person in the world. He could not even find the words to express how happy he was. Chuck stood up and went over to his wife. He grabbed her face and brought her lips to his. The kiss held so much passion in it. Neither of them ever wanted to part, but the need for air became too much. When they finally separated both we panting loudly. "I love you so much Blair. More than anything."

Blair just smiled at him. She was finally had hope that this was going to work. "Me too. Listen Chuck, there is something I need to tell you."

Chuck brought her lips back to his and picked her up. After a much shorter and softer kiss, he let her lips go. "It can wait." He started walking to their bedroom.

"No, Chuck it can't. Put me down."

Chuck was completely taken back by her sudden mood change. "What is it? What's so important?"

Blair was nervous. She wasn't sure how he was going to handle her news. "I don't want you to be upset, but there is something you need to know." She was now pacing back and forth trying to find the courage to tell him.

Chuck was starting to get scared by her actions. He had only ever seen her listen nervous once before and that was right before she got her acceptance letter from Yale. "Blair, just tell what it is?"

"I'm pregnant."
