"Waldorf, the limo is already here. Let's go"
"Fine, just give me a couple of minutes so I can pick a purse."
"And here I thought that I was the one seeking for your mother's approval."
I am so not seeking for her approval! I just like it when mother gives me complements and hate it when she disapproves me…I mean, criticizes me, therefore I like to look good.
"YOU are. I just like to look impeccable, and it has nothing to do with Eleanor."
"Whatever you say Blair. But just so you now, you look perfect, and if your mother disagrees on that, it means she's crazy."
"Hmm…thanks Bass. You don't look bad yourself."
"Look, I would love to stay here flirting with you, but I know you hate getting late so…"
"You're right. Let's do this then."
Chuck took my hand and we walked into the elevator. It's so cute that he is nervous for this. I can see it by the way he's squeezing my hand so tight.
"Ouch! Blair, you're squeezing my hand"
Oops, guess I'm the one doing that then.
"Sorry."
But is not like I don't know that Eleanor is going to be happy about this. I wasn't lying when I told Bass she knew about us. And Cyrus is really good for her; she has been a lot nicer since him. Of course, the fact that he is not going to be there is a little upsetting, but just a little. Nothing I can't handle.
"So Bass…nervous?" I say as we walk into the limo.
"Me? Never, I…" he stops when he sees me smirking. He probably regrets teaching me how to do that, but what can I say…too late.
"Fine…maybe a little. Even though I'm like a parent's dream come true."
"Haha. Well, okay, you're not exactly traditional…but let's face it, neither am I."
"Which is why we're inevitable."
"Yes Bass, you've got that right."
Suddenly there's a knock on the door.
"Sir, I'm sorry to interrupt, but we are here."
"Thank you Arthur."
Okay, so we are kind of late, but only five minutes. If we are lucky, mother is not even going to be here yet so…
"Blair, dear!"
Of course she's already here. I bet she's been here for at least half an hour, just to make sure she would be here before us. How bitchy and Waldorf of her.
"Mother!"
"Eleanor." Chuck says, shaking her hand awkwardly. Wow. I've seen Bass on many embarrassing situations, but I've never ever seen him act awkward. How lovely.
"Charles, it is a pleasure to finally meet you."
"Mother, you've known Chuck since we were little kids."
"Yes, of course, but not like this. I mean…well, I'm sure Charles understood me, right Charles?
"Of course I do Mrs. Waldorf. It is a pleasure to finally meet you too."
I try to hide a laugh, but apparently Chuck catches that and winks at me. He is so hot when he does that and…Oh my, I can't be thinking about that with my mother right next to me! What has this Basshole done to me? Classy, Waldorf, very classy!
"What about the bed Blair?"
"I'm sorry, what?"
"Well, did you pick one already? For your dorm room I mean. You do recall that you'll be going to NYU in a few days?"
"Oh, that, right…Dorota is taking care of everything."
"Good. Now, if
you don't mind, I'm going to start the interrogation,
Charles."
"Mother! Would you please behave and…"
"Not a problem, Eleanor."
"Great. So, do you intend to hurt my daughter again? Because you've done that a lot."
"Chuck, just ignore her! She's…"
"I am not going to hurt Blair again. This time things are different between us…"
"Yes, she told me about your little romantic thing with the European gifts and all. Oh, and that you told her you love her. But does that changes anything?"
"It does. After all that we've been through we've learned a couple of things about trusting each other."
"Well, to tell you the truth Charles, I agree with you."
"You do?" I asked without thinking, and Chuck looked at me looking a little bit hurt. Oops…
"Yes, I do. The truth is that Blair was deeply sad every time you kids had a fight…be she was, and as a matter of fact is, very happy when you're together."
"I see…"
"When she was with Nathaniel…"
"Mother, there's no need to bring him up…"
"Let me finish Blair. When she was with him, she was never very sad, but was never really happy either. And that means that she never truly cared so much about him. Therefore, I don't believe you Charles."
"What? But you just said…"
"You are going to hurt her again, just like she's going to hurt you. But if you actually care for each other the way you claim you do, you'll get pass that."
"Hmm…thank you Eleanor, I guess…"
"Not a problem. Look kids, I've got a lot of work to go back to, so I need to leave now. I'm sure Charles can cover the bill…"
"Yes, of course I will."
"Well then, bye Blair, see you at home."
"Bye mother."
OMG! Eleanor just gave us her approval? How adorable and uncharacteristic of her.
"So…that was intense…"Chuck said, looking into my eyes.
"Indeed, it was. You're not going to run away scared again are you?"
"Of course not."
"Good, because tomorrow I'm going to move to my dorm and I'll need help."
"Thought Dorota got that covered."
"Yes, she does, but I'm a little worried about my roommate, so I need help."
"Sure, but don't worry Waldorf, she's probably going to be some nice hippie or something like that."
"Yes, I guess she will be alright…"
To be continued…
Okay, so I guess there's no need to say that Georgina is going to be on the next chapter. Hope you liked it, I decided to make Eleanor cool and all because she seemed very nice to blair on the season 2 finale. Please review ^^
