I got tired of waiting. Wondering if you were ever coming around. My faith in you was fading, when I met you on the outskirts of town...

Blair took in a deep breath, and watched the fog escape her into the cold, wintry world around her. She had already been sitting on the bench for an hour, waiting for him. It had already been 1 and a half years since she had seen him, and the past hour had been spent reminiscing on their short time together. She tried to remember what it was that had even brought her to this hard bench just outside the Paris city limits. One short phone message was all. Left from a taxi on his way to the airport no less. The fact that there was a message at all had been a surprise, for there had been no communication between them at all for the past month. Sure, for the first month or two, they talked a couple times a week, but as time wore on, those phone calls became less and less, and soon they abandoned the phone all together and went with e-mails instead. And for the last month, nothing at all. She shook her head. She should have known this would happen. "You are my life" he had told her, and she foolishly believed him. Well, she was not going to be a fool for much longer, she was calling a taxi and going home.

XOXO

Oh he was so late. Blair was going to be so mad. Not only was he idiot enough to not call for 3 months, he didn't even have the courtesy to actually tell her he was coming. No, he just left a message, which she most likely did not get. Idiot. She would never want him now. The taxi all of a sudden halted in the middle of the street. "Hey, what's the holdup?" Chuck asked with annoyance.

"Je ne comprends pas" The taxi driver said with a shrug.

Chuck grumbled. "Pourquoi avons-nous arĂȘte?"he tried again.

"Ahhh" the driver said. "Embouteillage" he said with a shrug.

Chuck growled under his breath. Traffic jam, of course! Well, the place was only a few blocks away. Chuck pulled out his wallet.

"Here, getting out"

"Je ne compreds pas!" the driver shouted again.

"Garder le changement!" Chuck called as he ran on down the street.

XOXO

Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone, I keep waiting for you but you never come. Is this in my head, I don't know what to think. He kneels to the ground and...

Well, the taxi should arrive in about 15 minutes. She couldn't believe she had let herself be fooled by a man who obviously didn't care enough to call her in 3 months. She wrapped her coat more tightly around her. Man it was cold, though she had always loved the snow. Just then, she heard a faint calling of her name. He rears perked up. Could it be...? No, she must have been imagining things. She sat back and sighed. She heard it again, louder this time. She turned her head to the direction it seemed to be coming from. There he was, running towards her like a mad man. The sight of him would have almost caused her to giggle if she hadn't been so amazed at his appearance. Within a minute, he was standing in front of her. She took him in. He looked the same, sans the wind blown hair and normal business suit. Only normal, because he usually preferred purple or pinstripe, or something like that. But maybe being CEO of a billion dollar company will do that to you. He gazed into her eyes. "Blair" he said softly, taking her in as well. She then snapped out of it and pushed him away. He gave her a confused look.

"3 months Chuck. 3 months, you never called!"

He looked down at the ground. "I did e-mail you..."

"Oooh, yay e-maling! And how long did that last? I have had no form of communication with you for a month Chuck!"

"Blair, I..."

"Do you know how that makes me feel Chuck? You know, if you don't want me anymore, just man up and say it because I am tired of..."

He grabbed her face and kissed her hard. She fell limp against him and he wrapped his arms around her. When they broke apart, he said "Never think that. Never could I want anyone other than you. I screwed up, big time. It was just work and everything to do with it, and being new and everything, it just got so hectic. I would come home and literally pass out on the couch. And the time difference..." he sighed. "I know those aren't excuses, but they're the reason for the mistake, and I don't if I can ever make it up to you, but I meant it when I told you you are my life. I love you Blair."

Blair was silent for a moment. "You tell me this, but I don't know if I can believe you. I mean this has been the worst year of my life; the only thing that kept me going was the knowledge that someday, you and I were going to be together. And you let me down." She let a tear escape from one of her eyes. Chuck quickly brushed it away with his thumb.

"I know" he said softly. "But I can assure you that everything I tell you is true. Blair Waldorf, you are the most stunning and beautiful girl I have ever laid eyes upon. Never, in my wildest dreams could I ever have imagined myself being with someone as smart and incredible as you. I don't deserve you Blair, and yet, somehow, we complete each other. I can't be happy without you in my life". Blair gasped as he got down on one knee. "What I suppose I'm getting at is, I love you Blair. So much. I don't think anyone has ever loved a person more than I love you. I know I've been an idiot this past year, but I will never make that mistake again". He put his hand in his pocket and pulled out a little blue box. "Blair Waldorf, will you marry me?"

There was a moment of silence. "Yes!" she finally cried out, tears streaming down her face. He stood up and kissed her passionately. They both laughed as they broke apart. He then slid the ring onto her finger. It was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen. The whole thing was covered in diamonds, with one larger one in the centre, circled with many other smaller ones.

"Oh Chuck" she breathed. "It's just perfect"

He smiled. "I'm glad. Now, why don't we get out of here?"

"I think that's a good idea" she smiled. And off they went.

XOXO

"Happy anniversary" he whispered in her ear. She turned slowly to smile at him.

"50 years is long time" she said.

"Yes it is" he said smiling. He wrapped his arms around her waist. "And I've loved every minute of it".

She chuckled. "I guess we can be glad our parents made us go to charity balls when we were younger"

He smirked as he led her to the bedroom. "My darling, you have no idea".

Later that night, wrapped in Chuck's arms, there in her dreams appeared a dark, mysterious young man approaching her. "Hello, may I have this dance?" he asked her. And they waltzed away to their destiny.

Cause we were both young, when I first saw you.

Yay it's finished! Sorry about how long the update took, I really have been super busy. I hope you like it! Reviews are always very much loved. Oh and the link for Blair's engagement ring is on my page.
