This part deserved it's own chapter in my opinion

He slammed his hand against the wall behind her. The words still lingered on her lips. I want you back. Chuck could feel the anger all throughout his body from his heart to his fingertips. Every part of his body was telling him to banish this woman from his life. To keep her away from everything she destroyed. To take care of his heart that, truth be told, was still trying it's best to recover. She looked up at him with concern and bit her lip waiting for a response. He searched her eyes for an ulterior motive. When he couldn't come up with one he backed away to pull the switch once more and press the button to the lobby.

"You're not going to say anything?"

He took a deep breath and straightened his tie before turning to her "I chased after you for months." He laughed a little at his own stupidity. "Even after I walked away. Do I have to remind you that you wanted nothing to do with me?"

She moved close to him putting her arms around his neck forcing him to look into her eyes again. Her eyes tried to hide her grief, tried desperately to hold back her tears.

"Chuck, Paris was awful. The entire time I needed you." She spoke quickly her words tripping over each other. She finally took a pause and the only words she could think of were the ones that she'd wanted to say the moment she saw him.

"I love you."

He bit back his tongue. Just as he was about to retort the elevator doors opened to a few hotel guests. Blair walked out of the elevator expecting him to follow her. But, he didn't. Blair turned around to see the elevators doors to make eye contact with Chuck who was still inside. She pleaded silently with him to follow her and he looked right through her, right up until the doors closed. She left the hotel in a rush and hailed a cab while tears streaming down her face. Her phone buzzed and she prayed to God that Gossip Girl hadn't caught her hotel fiasco. Much to her surprise there was only one message.

One text from Chuck Bass.

I can't save you anymore.
