A/N: This is my (early) Limoversary gift to all you CB shippers out there :) It's been four years since that amazing limo scene and it's been quite a journey for our favorite couple. While it hasn't been easy and there has been a lot of pain in the past seasons all of it will be worth it when Chuck and Blair finally find their way back to each other again. It won't be easy, but I have faith in my OTP of all OTP's. As you can probably tell I am safely tucked into my Chair bubble. I hope you all do enjoy this. Oh, and I did make Charlotte older just for this particular one-shot.
"This isn't fair," Chuck said as he walked over to Blair in their master bedroom. She was standing in front of her full-length mirror as she twirled around and debated whether this was the dress she was going to wear for the night.
"What isn't?" She asked him as she continued to twirl and debate.
"You and that dress," He said once he was directly behind her. "You're going to upstage the bride,"
She blushed at his compliment as she continued to look over her appearance. Her reflection in the mirror showed him that she was smiling.
"Did anyone upstage me at our wedding, Bass? I would hate to have someone upstage me at my own wedding. It's my day,"
"Of course not," He instantly replied. "You were gorgeous that day as you are now,"
Every word he said was true. Every day he looked at the framed picture of them that he had in his office that was taken after they became husband and wife. Every time he looked at that picture she still took his breath away.
"I suddenly wish we didn't have to leave," She said.
"Why?" He asked slowly, but then it donned on him. "You're in a mood, aren't you?"
She only nodded her head in reply.
"How about this?" He said as he wrapped his arms around her waist. "We'll go to the renewal ceremony, make sure our best friends have a good time, we'll tire Charlotte out a bit, we'll come home tuck her into bed, and finally you can have your way with me,"
She pretended to ponder his plan as she bit her lip, "Fantastic," She finally said and kissed him lightly on the lips. She knew if she tried to deepen the kiss, like she wanted to, they would never leave. "I'll meet you downstairs. I still have to dress Charlotte,"
"I shall descend downstairs to wait upon my Queen and my Princess," He said before he bowed down in front of her.
She was laughing at him for how formal he sounded when she left the room to get Charlotte ready for the night.
"There's my princess," Chuck said as his daughter toddled into the living room with his wife trailing behind her.
Charlotte smiled as she recognized her father's voice and lifted her small arms as she waited to be lifted into his arms. He didn't disappoint his little girl and lifted her up.
"Dress," Charlotte said simply as she held the material in her hand.
"Yes, it's a very pretty dress. Mommy made it just for you," Chuck smiled.
"Mommy?" Charlotte asked.
"Yes, Mommy. It's one of a kind so no one will have this dress expect for you," He told his daughter as he playfully tapped her nose.
"Where Mommy?" She asked as she looked around the room hastily for her.
"You are too precious, Charlee," Blair said as she noticed that her daughter was in such a haste when looking for her. She walked over to her husband and daughter and ran a finger through her daughter's curls.
"She takes after her mother in that regard," Chuck said as he reveled in their family moment.
Blair leaned into Chuck, careful not to squish Charlotte, and left a gentle kiss on Chuck's lips.
"Kiss!" Charlotte squealed, which caused the parents to pull their lips away from each other.
"Does Charlotte want kisses?" Chuck asked Charlotte playfully. He lifted his arms above his head so that Charlotte was being held up high in the air as he repeatedly kissed her cheeks.
Charlotte laughed and squealed in delight as Chuck threw her up in the air as he was careful to catch her. It was her new favorite game to be play; Fly Catch as she liked to call it.
"Love Daddy," Charlotte said when Chuck settled her back against his chest.
"I love you, Charlotte," He told her as he soothed her back.
"No love for Mommy?" Blair asked as she mocked being hurt.
"Love Mommy!" Charlotte yelled as she turned her head to find her mommy.
"I love you, sweetie," Blair replied and kissed Charlotte's cheek .
"Are we ready to get this show on the road so we can see Nate and Serena get married again?" Chuck asked his favorite ladies.
"I've got everything I need and Charlotte's bag is by the elevator," She informed her husband as they walked towards the elevator.
As they made their trek to the elevator Charlotte yelled, "Unca Nat and Auntie Rena!"
"Uncle Nate is getting married . . . again. The poor fellow," He told Charlotte whom the groom was currently holding.
"Come on man," Nate said irritably. He lost count how many times Chuck mocked him for having a second wedding ceremony. "You're telling me you never thought about renewing your vows with Blair?"
"I have," He admitted. "But we don't need to. She already knows how much I love her,"
His best friend said nothing. He only looked at him and raised his eyebrow.
"Why? Has she been hinting at wanting one?"
"I don't know anything," Nate assured him as he secured his hold on Charlotte.
Chuck looked at the interaction between his daughter and best friend. She was laying against his chest and she was playing with the lapels of his tuxedo jacket, but Nate didn't seem to mind even though they both knew Serena wouldn't be happy if his suit was messed up in the slightest. Charlotte was always comfortable around Nate and took a liking towards him almost instantly. She had her godfather wrapped around her tiny fingers just like her father.
"So when are you and Serena going to give my daughter a cousin?" He asked merely to keep their conversation going. He could sense that Nate was having some pre-wedding jitters even though, technically, he was already married to the bride.
"Sooner than you think," Nate confessed slowly as he looked down to the little girl in his arms.
"Serena's pregnant?"
"She's three months along, but you better not say a word. Lily doesn't even know and I wasn't even supposed to say anything until we told everyone," Nate warned.
"How do you feel?" Chuck asked. He remembered just like it was yesterday how he felt when Blair told him about her pregnancy. He was excited, anxious, nervous, and worried all at the same time.
"Definitely freaked out, but happy; I have been ever since she told me. All this anxiety is worth it in the end right?"
"It is. That moment when you see your child for the first time is indescribable. All that nervousness you're feeing right now is definitely worth it. You're creating a family with the woman you love, it's something that should definitely be celebrated,"
"Plus, I don't think you need to worry," Chuck continued. "You're a great godfather to Charlotte. You're a natural with her and she's a Bass; she's not easy to please," He chuckled. "If you can take care of Charlotte like you do, you can definitely take care of your own child,"
"Bass?" Charlotte asked as she lifted her head up from Nate's chest. She recognized the word and heard it enough times to know what it meant. "I'm a Bass!"
"Dance with me," Blair requested of her husband when she walked up to the table he was sitting at. Without waiting for his reply she grabbed onto his hand and led him towards the dance floor.
She wrapped her arms around his neck as they moved to the slow song, "Did Nate tell you the news?" She wondered.
"That we're going to have a niece or nephew in six months time?"
"Another newborn I get to spoil," She smiled. Ever since finding out she was pregnant with Charlotte shopping for anything baby related had become her guilty pleasure.
"You mean besides Charlotte?" He chuckled. "We both spoil her with everything, especially clothes and toys,"
"Well, our little girl deserves the best," She argued.
"She does," He agreed. "She deserves nothing but the best,"
"What about me?" She asked playfully. "Don't I deserve the best?"
"You already have the best," He smirked and it was obvious to her that he was referring to himself.
"Smug Basstard," She said as she rolled her eyes at him before she found herself smiling.
He leaned into her body to rest his forehead against hers as they continued to dance with each other.
"I love you," He barely whispered seconds later.
Blair looked into his eyes and it was if she lost herself in them. He was all she saw and all she heard was their breathing. The music and the chatter around them seemed to disappear as if they were the only two in the room.
"I love you,"
They continued to dance when suddenly Chuck felt a tug on his pants and was forced to tear his eyes from his wife.
He looked down to find Charlotte and he bent down to pick her up, "What are you up to, Princess?"
"Mommy," She replied tiredly once she saw her mother and outstretched her small arms to Blair.
"She must be tired. She's been dancing with Connor for most of the night," Blair thought out loud. Connor was the son of one of Chuck's businessmen whom the Bass family had dinner with every month.
"We should get going so we can get her in bed," Chuck suggested. "I'll go get her bag and our jackets,"
"And I'll try to find Serena and Nate. We can say our goodbyes and head home," Blair continued to think out their exit strategy. He nodded towards her before he went back into the flurry of people to find the bags they brought with them.
"You're leaving?" Serena asked as the Non-Judging Breakfast Club stood together.
"We should," Blair replied. "Our little one exerted all the energy she had," She said before she turned around to show Serena and Nate how hard Charlotte was struggling to keep her eyes open.
"Aw, she's still such a beauty even when she's exhausted," Serena said.
"Of course she is. She looks just like her mother," Chuck replied as he rubbed Charlotte's back to help her go to sleep.
"You are so whipped, man," Nate replied as he chuckled towards his best friend.
"I'd be careful, Nate," Blair warned as she came to defend her husband. "In six months time you'll be saying the same things,"
She smiled victoriously as Nate shut his mouth immediately and tightened his hold on his wife's waist.
"This happily whipped man has to take his family home. I will not have my daughter sleep without being in her comfortable bed,"
Blair laughed at his over protectiveness, although if her husband ever asked her about it she would admit to absolutely loving it, as the group said their goodbyes.
"I can't believe she's almost a year old already," Chuck marveled as he watched Charlotte's eyes flutter close once he and Blair tucked her into her princess bed.
"Me either. In only two months she'll be one. It's crazy how fast time has went since we brought her home from the hospital,"
"I kind of wish we could slow it down, but on the other hand I don't,"
"What do you mean?" She wondered what her husband meant.
"Time just seems to go by so fast these days and before we know it she'll be in her own Constance uniform. I can't wait to see her grow up, see whom she's like and watch her pass all her major milestones, but at the same time I don't want her to grow up," He explained himself.
"I get where you're coming from, Bass. It's something exciting and terrifying at the same time. All we can do is help her pass all her major milestones and be there for her when she needs us and even when she doesn't need us,"
"How do parents deal with these conflicting feelings? I feel like I'm torn," He wondered as they walked out of Charlotte's room and walked towards the living room.
"They have more children," She chuckled.
"I can't wait until we have another child," He whispered as he caressed her stomach. "Until then we can certainly keep on practicing,"
"If I recall you did say this morning after we returned for the night I could have my way with you. Does that offer still stand?" She wondered although she already knew what the answer would be.
"When do I ever deny my wife something she wants?" He asked and he lifted her in his arms.
After they made love and they were cuddling with each other Blair had asked him if he wanted to dance one more time before they went to bed for the night.
And because Chuck wasn't one to deny his wife he found himself dancing in the middle of his living room as the clock strolled to midnight.
She absolutely loved to dance with him. They didn't dance together as much as any other couple, but when they did it was special to them.
Like at their wedding; their first dance as a married couple had to be her favorite dance she shared with him.
Her mind flashed back to their wedding and she remembered the way he looked at her as she walked down the aisle with her father on her arm, how his voice cracked while he was saying his own vows and the look of love in his eyes when he recited them, and their first real kiss after becoming man and wife.
She leaned into him and her lips met his for a kiss that was full of passion.
"What was that for?" He wondered as he tried to get his breathing under control once they pulled apart.
"Do you ever think about renewing our vows?"
