DAN/BLAIR
hey guys sorry for not updating fast enough i've had writers block but here you go.
Dan knew saying yes to Blair's plan was not fare to Serena but he agreed to it anyway. He should have considered Serena's feelings instead he just shook his head in agreement . The rest of the day went all in a daze nodding to everything Blair was saying and seeing how hurt Serena was and how crushed she must have felt with the very idea of him with Blair even is she if when she put on her fake mile he saw right through it. She had said she wanted to start fresh and he blew it by agreeing to this plan of Blair Waldorf the name didn't sound so menacing inside his head anymore it sounded like any normal name he knew Blair would be Blair but really pretending to be a couple could he really go through with it really. Even if Blair had said it was because of the play really or id she have an agenda to pull through. These were the type of thoughts he had in his head when he said his goodbyes to Blair with a awkward hug he didn't know what to do. He walked Serena home but they were both quit Dan with to many things in hi head with how Blair had showed up this morning and how Serena was keeping up her guard. it wasn't until they were both standing outside Serena's building that she had to get his attention by bumping his shoulder.
Serena: "Dan... Dan..."
Dan: "Huh? What?."
Serena: "Never mind just promise me one thing"
Dan: "Okay?"
Serena: "Don't fall in love with her."
That was the last thing she said right before turning and leaving Dan to wonder how much she was hurt. He was thinking why she would come to this all he knew was he had to make things right. but how when your going to start dating someone even if it is a hoax for people could come and see the play, but could he really be thinking if he could see the both of them a the same time or just wait this thing out its only a month right. He had to discuss this with Serena but for know he had to get some rest because in the morning he would be introduced as Blair's new boyfriend. is he dreaming, not likely.
----
Serena couldn't believe it she was playing with Dan, it wasn't likely that Blair wanted to use Dan but the way her best friend was staring at him she knew Blair liked him. She couldn't believe it was this really happening she thought when she saw Dan he would be hers and only hers but know this why Dan its not because of the play its something else it has to be. She walked through her doors and saw both her mother and Rufus on the couch, she use to have that with Dan and know he would she couldn't think like this she had to get away she needed some sleep, this would all be over soon Blair said until the play started that was what a month she deal with that one month. As she was walking to her room her mother saw her.
Lily: "You've been gone awhile what happened."
Serena: "Nothing mom, about tomorrow were going right to the Waldorf's brunch."
Lily: "Yes we are right Rufus."
Rufus: "Yes were going it starts when 10 yes, you going with Dan, Serena."
Serena: "Yes, Dan will be there see you in the morning." Serena went to her room and thought of the events to today hoping it all was a dream.

Blair woke up bright and early she was to excited to go to sleep because of this morning's brunch with her of course her mother and all her friends to make a appearance she knew Dan would look perfect in one her mother's designs and of course her mother would approve of him. Before she went to sleep she made sure to have her mother's designer suits she made her mother had made last week, ready for when Dan came, he needed to be approved and in what you may say of course one of her mother's originals. It was already 8 and Dan should be getting here, she needed to be ready too so she went to it and with her outfit already picked out she was looking like the Blair Waldorf every one knew her as.
Ding! That must be Dan she thought.
Sure enough it was Dan he had left his loft right around 7:30 and knew he had to be here on time or else it was already 8:25 and he was a bit late, but he was here before the party started. When he walked in he saw all the servers getting everything ready some going in and out of the kitchen as he was walking towards the stairs that was when his heart stopped or it felt like it, she was walking down the stairs with a smile on her face. He couldn't believe believe he felt this way towards her, wait remember the plan not to fall for her but how can anyone not, just look at her.
Dan: "Waldorf I see your ready."
Blair: "Humphrey I see your not let me show you some other appropriate cloths."
Blair couldn't believe it she had gotten butterflies when he appeared returning her smile with one of his, but the moment was gone because one look at what he was wearing and she knew she made the right decision on having him come early. So this was how you felt when you actually feel as if the other half of you is in the same room. She lead him him up stairs to change in her bedroom, for when it came time he could at least look like belonged with her, now the scary part introducing Dan as her boyfriend.
Once Dan had noticed all the different color suits he knew it was going to be awhile so when he tried on the first blue suit he found in his size he was shocked when Blair nodded in approval he liked it to even if it was not is style. But if this was going to look like he really liked her he had to change his appearance just for events like this not when they go out he hoped. With a nice dress shirt he was ready for the show to begin he was still feeling a little strange though because Blair was helping him fix his tie and she was too close they barely spoke while he was trying on the suit so he just smiled knowing Blair just wanted some quiet.
Blair: "There you are, Humphrey who knew you dressed up nicely."
Dan: "I do, thank you Blair."
Blair: "Anytime, I hear the elevator opening, ready."
Dan: "After you"
The moment Blair and Dan walked down the stairs she recognized everyone the girls Is and Penelope were there with the other girls she had invited last month, she also saw Lily and Rufus and also Jenny and her date Nate. Even though they have been seeing each other it was still weird to see them together. She looked behind her and saw that Dan was scanning the room for someone in particular but finally saw that he saw his father and so Blair knew he wanted to say hello but she needed to speak with her mother so she scanned and there Eleanor Waldorf stood talking to Dorota, Blair took one step and grabbed hold of Dan's hand and pulled him to where her mother was.
Blair: "Mom could we talk in private please."
Eleanor: "Yes of course in here."
Blair: "Mom I wanted you to be the first to know me and Dan were dating."
Eleanor: "Dan is that one of mine wow it looks amazing."
Dan: " Yes I believe it is one of yours."
Eleanor: "So what was it you wanted to tell me"
Blair: "Were dating."
Eleanor: "Thought I heard that so you two, well if you two like each other and even though today is this I would love to get to know you Dan if thats okay later when everyone has left."
Dan: "Yes of course, later than."
Blair knew it was crazy to think that her mother wouldn't approve but when her mother made that attempt to get to know Dan she knew he was approved. She just had to show everyone else he reasoning.
Dan and Blair walked out and Dan went towards his father and saw hello he noticed Nate standing close to Jenny. He also noticed his hand was still around Blair's he thought she would drop it but it was still placed there.
Dan: " Hey Dad, Jenny, Lily, Nate."
Rufus: "Hey."
Blair: " Everything fine, I wanted to tell everyone here..." she saw Penelope and Is and the rest of the girls and with one nod to come they came.
Blair: "I wanted to say that were dating me and Dan."
Jenny: " You kidding right you and my brother."
Blair: "Yes it may seem like a shock but were are, we have gotten to know each other and it seems we have plenty in common."
Penelope: "Like what."
Lily: "I think its great that you two are seeing each other, don't you Rufus."
Rufus: "Oh... yes I believe my son I thought never mind."
Nate: " Well Dan I didn't think you and Blair well when does brunch start again."
Blair: " At 10, and yes it may have looked like we hated each other but since play rehearsal we have really gotten to know each other."
Dan: "Yes we have and I really like Blair she is one of a kind and she understands my reasoning."
Penelope: "What about Chuck and Serena do they know."
Blair: "Yes Serena knows we told her last night."
Jenny: "Well if Chuck doesn't know he does now."
As she finished her sentence the elevator closed and there he was even though what she told him last night she meant it he still came she knew she shouldn't be feeling this but Chuck was someone who needed help and she thought she was the one but she's not and now still holding Dan's hand she knows she has someone who will care for her.
Chuck: "Don't stop on my account what was that I heard your seeing Humphrey very Aubrey of you Blair."
Dorota: "Brunch is served."
Thanks! So Chuck showed up and he had flowers with him great Dan hoped that a fight wouldn't come but the when he saw Chuck look down to where he was still holding onto Blair's he knew he should let go maybe there was something still there but as he tried to let go she held on tighter and looked right at him and in that moment he knew Blair didn't want to be treated as she had she wanted to be loved so he held on. As everyone was to placed inside through those doors he knew he should wait so he let Blair go and waited till the room was empty even Chuck went inside not wanting to fight either it seemed. Then the elevator opened and she came through, Serena was the one known to be late to events and knew when she entered he could not help but smile and nod his head in the direction everyone had went off to.
Blair: "Oh good you made it, right this way Dan you coming."
Dan: "Yes."
Blair knew when she went to sit and didn't see Dan right there he was still out there so she went to get him, and what she saw she knew he still had feelings for her so she just went in there and greeted Serena and lead Dan to sit next to her, Serena was lead to be near mother.
An hour later it seemed the only thing on everyone's mind was how Blair could date Dan she knew the answer. As soon all seemed right though conversation was steered away from those two and to other things well until Penelope finally asked.
Penelope: "So how long have you two been doing this dating scene."
Blair knew she had answer she knew it began earlier this week but decided to say it was when he fell asleep on friday so friday was when they had the movie night.
Blair: "We started Friday, its no secret I just thought because of this brunch I could tell everyone."
Is: "Well I thought there was a rule about not dating your friends ex I thought maybe you forgot but you made that rule up earlier in the year."
Blair: "Well that rule is vanquished, and yes I made it up so that no one can date Nate after we broke up I knew one who you would so I thought it up to."
Is: " Okay B but still I thought you would consider S's feelings right you are best friends."
Blair: "She has Aaron right I did the right thing by telling her first yesterday, yes I considered her feelings and she said it was fine, so drop it Is please I don't want to make a scene."
Is: "Okay i'll leave it a rest just ...." in a more hushed voice "...Dan Humphrey, really."
Blair: "Yes Is yes." smiling and nodding she knew this was the convincing she would have to give she knew they would be more concern of Serena's feelings over how she felt but with the discussion was over about the topic she was just glad the whole time Dan just listened his father was over by Lily and Serena and so were Jenny and Nate. He just stayed silent taking in what there reactions were and hopefully later when he talked to her mother she knew he would pass the approval. she needed this a challenge she knew would only take a week for all that glares she would receive tomorrow, With Dan there it would be great.
Thanks for reading and if there at least 10 reviews i'll continue just 10 please the next chapter might be longer it all depends on what you think continue or not. There is one more thing any one ever heard of a book called The Summoning by Kelly Armstrong its great just finished it if any one has tell me what you thought of the ending. Until next time.
