AN: I'm so sorry to all my readers. I've been so busy, with the end of exams, and then vacation, travelling, and uncoordinating. I havn't even been inspired to write much either which totaly sucks!
I wrote this beore I left, and i just got a chance to read through the Beta'd version (Thank you NYGIRL26 :D)
"My flight is in an hour Blair," Chuck smirked to the brunette. She'd refused to let him leave last night, and he was literally running late. He had to call housekeeping to pack up his bag and everything. He'd just gotten out of the shower only to have her try to rip the towel from around his waist.
"I don't think we're finished," she smirked, trying to get a few more moments with him. At that he leaned down and kissed her and gripped the towel around his waist with one hand as his other found her neck.
"We'll never be done, princess," he smirked and continued kissing her for a few more minutes before pulling away. "I have to go," he hated saying it but if he didn't leave soon he knew he never would. He left her standing there in her robe as he got dressed as fast as he could.
"I'm going to miss you," she admitted, sitting Indian style on her bed as she watched him get ready. She finally got up as he stuffed his feet into his shoes and shirt into his pants. She grabbed the undone bowtie and started to twist it and knot it until it looked as perfect as it should.
"I'll miss you too," he smiled, giving her cheek one last kiss.
She hated how despite the fact that he'd only be gone for such a short time she still missed him, even before he'd left. It didn't take her long to snap out of it though and she was soon calling for her cousin to go shopping with her.
"Good morning."
Kaitlin opened her eyes and she met beautiful blue looking down at her. "Hey, is it morning?" she had to ask. She could have sworn she hadn't stayed out that late, but she was really tired when she got to his place last night.
"Yeah, my mom told Dorota you were here... sorry I didn't wake you, but we figured you were really tired..." He gave her his best apologetic smile and she smiled back.
Last night, after their sudden interest in all the tourist hotspots, they bumped into Mrs. Archibald who'd asked her over for dinner. She couldn't decline since they had been looking for a place to just sit and eat. Also his mother pretty much insisted, since she was good friends with Kaitlin's dad, and suggested that they could all watch a movie after as well. Kaitlin barely remembers the first half hour, before she fell asleep on their couch, and it seems she spent the night.
"I should get home," she started to get up, not exactly used to sleeping on someone's couch. But as far as waking up on one, to Nate... it wasn't that bad.
"I'll take you. But first," he helped her off of the couch, "as a final touch to our day of tours, breakfast." He smiled and offered her new clothes to wear.
"Did you just buy these?" she looked him over quizzically.
"Mom, she's always wanted a daughter... and since she figured you were the same size as Blair" he fell silent at the mention of her name. Honestly Blair had only slept over once, and she had her own change of clothes and everything, but she did go shopping a couple of times with his mom. She'd come back with a sweater or something for him, while his mom presented him with the endless number of polo shirts, shorts, khaki's, basically Ralph Lauren has its own closet in his room.
"Breakfast sounds nice," she smiled up to him hopefully and then went to find the nearest bathroom to change out of her uniform.
"Where have you been?" Blair stormed up to her cousin the second she stepped into the foyer.
"I thought you said your mom called Dorota?" Kaitlin quickly turned to Nate.
"She did. Sorry Blair, she stayed the night." He explained, though in a way wanted to lie. He felt like he didn't want Blair to know, but he didn't exactly have anything to hide. He didn't sleep with her, but it felt like he may as well have.
"Dorota's not here, I called you-"
"My battery died, relax Blair!"
"Relax! I've been calling Serena and Eric all morning trying to find you; I have to tell them you're here. You had me worried sick," she rambled on as she texted Eric and Serena that Kaitlin had come home. Divide and conquer, what a way to find someone.
"Jeez Mom," she mocked Blair, "nothing happened!" she didn't waste another second before passing Blair to head up to her room. She didn't even know where that had just come from. On one level she was grateful Blair cared so much, but honestly she was pretty embarrassed by how childish she'd made her seem in front of Nate. There was also the little tiny miniscule part of her that hated the fact Nate still had feelings for Blair.
"Blair, it wasn't her fault," Nate tried to explain but Blair only shot him a glance telling him to shut it. She did NOT want to hear anything from him right now. Kaitlin just called her Mom, and for some reason she detested the idea of being a mother. In fact, she hated her own mother enough to know that Kaitlin was insulting her.
"Let's go," Blair didn't wait another minute, grabbing her bag as she ushered Nate back into the lift. "You have a fitting to get to, and I need to make sure everything is perfect for tomorrow night."
"Shouldn't you talk to her?" Nate tried, but again Blair only looked at him critically.
"She has her own parent, I'm not in charge of her," she scoffed before pressing the button for the ground floor.
"Hey Penelope," Kaitlin smiled as the girl finally picked up her phone. "What are you doing tomorrow night?" She smirked as she realized exactly how to end Nate's obsession with Blair.
