Dear readers (if you still read haha..) I'll try to update again somewhere next week. Also, I think this is a pretty lousy chapter, but it's all a lead-on to something beautiful. I hope. Any suggestions.. keep them coming, I'm feeling a little bit inspirationless with this story and I'm not sure where it is going so.. help is always welcome! And if you care... please REVIEW! They motivate me! XOXO
There are no excuses anymore... I'm horrible and I know it. Time is so precious, unfortunately. Even though I have abandoned you guys for weeks, I still hope you're reading.
WILD PEEING
When the wine was finished and the fire nearly done, they all went to their beds. The tent was supposed to be a six person one, but thanks to some large suitcases and overestimated space to begin with, the tent was way too small. And they all noticed that.
'IF EVERYBODY COULD JUST LIE STILL FOR JUST ONE-' Blair screamed, trying to make herself heard.
'Shut up, Waldorf. You're literally the person who moves the most in bed from everybody I know. And that says a lot… Just close your eyes and go to sleep, instead of yelling at us, and waking me up. Again.' Chuck said sarcastically.
'He would know.. ' Dan murmured to no one in particular, reacting on Chuck's comment about Blair in bed.
After an hour or two, nearly everyone had fallen asleep. Not everyone was lying at the same place anymore, due to movements and a small tent. Serena lay next on the outside with on one side Blair, who lay next to Nate. Chuck and Dan lay with their heads touching Serena, Blair and Nate's. Blair could feel Chuck's head against hers. He was slowly breathing and obviously asleep. She wanted to move away. Move away from pain and anger. But she couldn't and deep down she knew why. She loved him.
'Serena. Serena.' Blair whispered, shaking Serena who was snoring loudly, 'I have to pee. Wake up!'.
'Mhmm.. Let me sleep.' Serena murmured and turned her back to Blair, to lay on her side. Blair sat up.
'But I have to pee! I am not going out there by myself! There might be… bears. And stuff.'
Now she had woken up a few more people too.
'Go to sleep, Waldorf.' Chuck murmured, sighing deeply.
'Sssssssssst' Dan said.
'But I want to go to the bathroom and I'm not going alone!' Blair pleaded. 'Come on, Serena!'
But Serena had gone back to sleep. Blair lay down again, trying not to think about the fact that she had to pee so badly. She firmly closed her eyes for a few minutes, crossed her legs and thought about 'how not to think about peeing when you have to pee', when she felt something.
A hand touched her forehead and put her hair to the side. Chuck.
'Do you still want to go?' Chuck asked, letting his hand go.
'Hell yeah. Can you wake her up? She won't listen.'
'Look, I'll go with you. I know my sister, she won't wake up.' Chuck said and he got up. In only his boxers and a t-shirt he stood in the tent and zipped it open.
This woke Nate up, who said with a sleepy head: 'Don't forget your condoms.'
'Good thinking.' Chuck smirked and made a false attempt at going back in.
'EEWW NATE. Don't even think about it, Bass. The only reason why I let you go with me, is because my supposedly best friend is too lazy to wake up.' Blair said.
'Let you go? Honey, if it wasn't for me, you'd be peeing your pants within minutes. Now let's go.'
They walked for a while straight ahead, gazing into the darkness.
'I'm assuming you know where we're heading, love?'
'Don't call me that!' Blair said angrily.
'Oh don't worry. It doesn't mean anything special, I call every girl 'my love'.' Chuck smirked in the dark. He knew this would cause a scene.
But Blair ignored his comment and said: 'Back to our goal, or my goal at least, I thought YOU knew where we were going.'
'Naa-aah, you wanted to go. I'm just being a gentleman, by escorting you to the ladies.'
'So basically we're lost. But of course you brought your phone for light. And emergencies.' Blair immediately assumed.
'Yes, it's in my pocket – which I don't have – next to my condoms, alright?' Chuck answered sarcastically.
Shit… what now? They both thought.
'Let's just walk back. I mean, I don't remember taking any turns, right?' Chuck suggested.
'But I still have to pee…'
'GOD. Just do it here.' He said, rolling his eyes. 'I won't look, princess.'
'No way. I am not peeing here. Not in front of you and not in the middle of nowhere.'
'Well, I won't let you pee in my tent so…' He started walking again, knowing what would happen.
'Wha--. Wait. Ok. I'll do it.' She said softly. 'Wait here and don't you dare to move, you Basstard.'
When Blair finished she didn't dare to speak. But Chuck did.
'Washed your hands, my darling?' he smirked.
Blair ignored him and started walking. In the wrong direction.
'I don't know what you're up to, but I'd like to go to bed now. I'm tired, maybe in the morning.' Chuck said.
'Maybe what in the – EEW no.' Blair screamed. A finger touched her lips.
'People are trying to sleep here, Blair.' Chuck said softly. God he was handsome in the moonlight.
They gazed into each other's eyes and his finger traced her bottom lip. They lingered like this for just a little bit too long.
'Right. Ok, let's go.'
Once they finally found the tent, Blair turned her face to Chuck.
'Thank you. For walking with me, you know.'
'Anything for you.' He said. But he didn't smirk, for as far as she could see in the darkness. With snide comments like these he would smirk and act like he didn't mean them.
Blair opened her mouth to say something, but closed it again. She went inside.
When the both were fully installed in their hired sleeping bags (imagine Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass in hired sleeping bags..), Blair again felt his warm hand on her face. He caressed her head and she nearly fell asleep. When he pulled away, she pulled his hand closer and kissed the back of his hand.
'Good night Chuck.'
'Good night Blair.'
And all this with a judging, and awake, Serena staring from her side. It was foolish how love could make people so blind and yet so… aware.
