Thank you for the reviews. highly appreciated it. Hope you'll like it too.
Blair woke up at the hospital, her eyes wander at the ceiling then to the man beside her, holding her hand. It was Dan. She tried to reach him with her right hand but he suddenly woke up, she retrieve her hand playing dumb, he saw blair and immediately stood up,
"hey waldorf, feeling okay? you hurt somewhere?" the lady just shook her head.
"I'll call the nurse okay?" blair just gave him a weak smile and he head out of the room.
After a minute, he was accompanied by a nurse, a doctor, serena, her mom and chuck.
"We met dan at the hallway saying you're awake" Serena started. She went near the lady in bed and sat beside her and strokes her hair.
"are you okay B?" she asked. the nurse and doctor checked for her vital signs and when they saw that it's normal, they nod at her and walked near eleonor, she whispered something to them and the three of them left the room. Blair eyed them suspiciously, but knowing her mother who was always secretive, she remove ideas from her head. She shifted her focus to the blonde beside her and answered her previous question;
"Yeah! thanks S," Blair's eyes then looked at chuck and asked"Why are you here chuck?" then she looks at dan waiting for an answer. the man went near her looking defeated "I told them."
Blair's eyes widen and tried to sit. Hurriedly, dan helped her get up "Get your hands off me humphrey!" she furiously shouted and shoved dan's hands. "traitor" she mumbled.
"You don't need to be here bass, I could take care of this baby" putting her hands to her stomach.
"B about your baby... you have to know something" Serena then interrupted. Blair turned her gaze to the blonde beside her, she knew there was something wrong, in her heart she felt something missing.
She was waiting for her answer when someone uttered; "It's gone" It was chuck who finally said it. There were tears in eyes, only few reasons could make chuck bass cry, and blair certainly knew that he was not fooling around.
"What do you mean gone?" the brunette asked him but all he could do was cry. He sat at the nearest chair with his left hand covering his face. "Dan?" asked the brunette pleading for answers.
"You bled too much blair, the doctor can't save you unless we get the baby out. he gave me no choice. The baby was already dying inside of you and it's killing you too." he answered her, eyes fixed and pleading for forgiveness. he knew what he did was something that blair couldn't forgive, he had done so many things to hurt her and he knew this is the worst.
"i-it's gone? he died?" blair burst into tears and hugged the man on her left, dan was shocked that it was him that she seeked comfort with, not the serena, not her mom and not even the guy he knew she loved. "I lost him before I could even name him, I never had the chance to know if it's a boy or a girl" she sobbed. "I even had him enrolled early on Constance" she continued sobbing, Dan could only pat her back and hug her on return.
"You better rest darling, you have experience too much." Eleonor started as she entered the room seeing the poor blair. She went near the crying lady and pull her into a hug. "It's not your fault. everything happens for a reason, you may not be a mother today, but I know you will be a good one in the future." Blair looked at her mother and smiled.
"Thank you mother." She hugged her then when they let go, Blair looked at serena then to dan, "I want to speak to chuck alone, will that be alright?" "yes B!" serena answered. She looked at dan signaling to get out. Soon her mother and her bestfriends left the room, leaving her with the man she loved... or she guest, she once loved.
"Chuck..." She didn't know what to say, she knew in her heart that he must have hated her for killing his child.
"I'm sorry Blair" the man started, he's looking right exactly at her and walked towards her direction. "If I have been a good man, you don't need to lie to louis. Because of me your fairytale got ruined...our child died" He's so near her that she could feel him breathing, she rests her hand on his chest and looks at his eyes, they were teary and serious. His gaze fixed with hers, his thumb stroked the strand of her hair behind her ear. "I shouldn't have let you go" he murmured For a seconf blair thought that chuck will ask for the to get back togethet then he strarted again "but now it's too late for us to start over, I've cause you so much pain, but that doesn't mean there's no hatred inside of me for you... a part of me still thinks that you caused our baby to die and that's the reason we still can't be together"
Blair nods in approval, sooner or later they would just blame each other for the death of their baby, tears fell from blair's eyes, she knew that this time, it's for real that they should just let each other go.
Chuck lift her head and wipes her tears "You'll always be the love of my life B"
"I know. . " she looked away from him ".when we meet each other next time, could we still be friends?" she's hoping him to say yes, he has always been the person who accepts her for who she was, her game partner, and the love of her life.
"We may have scars from the wounds we got from this but that doesn't mean we have to ignore that the reason we got those scars were once been our friend" he stares at her one last time, bends and his lips reached for hers one last time. "Goodbye Blair" he whispered at the end of the kiss then he breaks it and walks away.
Blair was left alone, no prince to marry and no knight to rescue her from this hell. Her mother entered the room and began "I have to go home darling, I need to make some damage control about your wedding, serena told me to tell you that her boss just called and she has to go immediately... will it be alright?" she could see her mother's sadness. Who would like to see their daughter mess with everything. Blair smiled and nods, she couldn't let her mother suffer anymore from the scandal that she caused. When Eleonor left, Blair scanned the room, no one was there, not a single flower from minions, nor from friends, she was all alone. She just lost everything. She burst into tears feeling empty, just when all her hopes are gone, someone entered her room, she looked at the door and saw the man who promised to be there when she lost everything DAN HUMPHREY.
"Hey there waldorf, thought I could hang around" he grinned. He was striding proudly inside her room.
"no place to stay? you have your precious loft." she teasingly answered him. She gave him a smile and he sat next to her.
"I thought you needed a friend, but I could go if my presence was unwanted here" he suggested.
He was about to stand up when blair grabbed his hand. "Stay!" she pointed out. Her gaze away from his but he obliged. He wanted to be next to her, he wanted to make sure she's alright.
"I'm sorry about the baby" he started unable to look in her eyes "I have to save you, I promise you didn't I?" he looked at her with sincerity. Blair reached for his face, touches his cheek and weakly smiled
"Thank you humphrey..." she uttered.
"Sleep waldorf, you needed to rest. You had enough of drama today" he told her.
She obeys the brooklyn boy's command. Dan stayed up the whole night, watching over the ex-princess. He knew after this scandal she have to get up and start from the beginning, he may not be there when she first started being he queen bee of ues, but he will be this time around. He holds blair's hand and squeezes it, he laid his head beside their hands.
The next morning, Blair woke up suddenly, she looked around but no one's there then she saw dan beside her, holding her hand while sleeping, she smiled. wait, did i just smile because of humphrey? no no no! I am blair waldorf, no smiling.
when she saw that dan was about to be awake, she closed her eyes and faked sleeping.
When dan saw that blair was still asleep, he stood up and went outside to get some coffee, when he got back blair was already awake with a nurse beside her.
"When can I get discharge?" Blair asked the red headed nurse.
"Dr. barnes will be back this afternoon, after a few test he will be the one to discharge you" the nurse answered. The nurse turned back facing dan and seducingly smiled at him. All he did was nod and acknowledge her presence but didn't notice that the nurse was already flirting with him, his mind still wandering about blair.
"You feel alright waldorf?"
"yeah. got a little scared... I don't know what will happen if I get out of this hospital" she answered. Her eyes looking at her phone that has news from gossip girl announcing her scandal.
"Your Blair Waldorf, Queen bee of the upper east side, deceitful, mschievous, cunning, smart and beautiful. No one gets to bring a waldorf down" he announces. He grinned and grabbed the phone from blair.
"Is that a compliment?" blair laughed. "You sure know me that well humphrey"
"Well as you know, you made my highschool a living hell so I know you very well"
Blair got a little offended by his words but she knew he didn't mean to hurt her. "yes I know. . . I've hurt so many people because of my schemes and now I lost everything" she uttered with sadness.
"You still have me right" he offered. He wanted her to know that she could depend on him, no matter what, that he would stay.
"Well your my consolation prize as well as my punishment lonely boy! The heavens are truly punishing me for my bad deeds that I'm stuck with someone like you" she told him, if she told that to him 2 years ago, he might have hate her but he knew her better than that, he knew words like that are the way blair telling people that she needed them.
Without second thought dan knew what to say to her, he clutches his chest ready to get hurt by her answer
"Run away with me!" he firmly uttered.
The stuned blair just stares at him for a moment making sure that she heard it right "what?" she asked instantly.
"Run away with me! We could go to the hamptons," he offered.
"Uhmm... humphrey that's so bold of you but you're not my type" with her answer like that dan's hurt was once again broken but he didn't care, this is not his time, it was hers, she's more important.
"Don't think highly about yourself waldorf, this is simply a proposal way for you to get away from the scandal" he told her while still clutching his chest, it feels numb and he knew he will break soon. "You could stay there for a while, I could guard you while I write"
"I'll think about it," she responded, she doesn't know what to do, she wanted to accept his proposal but she knew that she couldn't take his life from him. Coming with her would cause him to leave his family, his job and his fame. She doesn't want to do that to the only person who cares for her.
"Go home humphrey, mother and cyrus will be here any minute, come back tomorrow" she told him. She smiled at him, he grinned and went near her.
"Think about it blair, I'll come back tomorrow after class to get my answer" he told her. He turned back and waved from behind.
The next day, dan couldn't think of anything else but blair, he was so anxious for her answer.
after class he hurriedly went to the hospital and searched for blair, when he reached her room it was empty. He turned around looking for any staff to question, then he saw the red headed nurse from yesterday.
"Hey! have you seen the patient in this room?" he asked.
The nurse annoyed by the utterance of the name again replied "She was discharge after lunch, she already went home"
"Thanks" he shouted while running outside the building and dialing blair's number but he just got in her voicemail. "waldorf, where are you? Call me alright." after the call, he raced after a cab and went to the waldorf's penthouse, he was welcomed by dorota who was sweeping the floor.
"Lonely boy what are you doing here?" she questioned with widened eyes.
"i'm looking for blair...she here?" he asked the lady who shooked her head.
"Not here? but she was discharge by the hospital right?"
"yes but she went directly to the airport for paris, she's going to spend the next few months with her father" she replied with her russian accent.
She continued sweeping the floor but finished her sentence "She left you a letter on her room" Dan feeling down went upstairs and searched for the letter, there's one for serena and one for him. He grabbed his letter, looked around and left the penthouse.
When he reached his loft, he sat on the couch and opened the letter;
dear humphrey...
Sorry but my answer is no ("0bviously" dan thought but he continued reading) I couldn't ask tou to leave your life to help me, I am a waldorf anyway so I don't need much help from anyone. Don't worry I'll be back in no time and you better have fixed that muppet hair of yours and as well clean your loft and change your fashion sense or else I, Blair Waldorf will bring you down.
with love... eww no with hate, B
dan laughed at the end of the letter and folded it, he grabbed his copy of the inside and slip the letter inside it. These are the two things that blair gave him, the inspiration for his book and her farewell letter. He looked at the mirror and combed his hair;
"When you get back waldorf. . . I'll wait for you" he uttered with a smile.
