Hi all! Ok, well i know this chapter is really short and i'm sorry about that. But i'm kind of going through a dry spell right now (writing wise) but I still wanted to add a chapter to this story. I'm thinking i'm going to end it with the next chapter. I'll try to add something juicy in there since I've gotten a lot of positive feedback regarding my sex scenes which I guess is an honor if there ever was any :-) Anyway hope you enjoy this one. Happy Readings!

Blair sat uncomfortably at the Van der Bass' table trying to keep her face a neutral color. She could feel all eyes on her and Chuck, since Chuck decided to sit next to her and place his arm around the back of her chair from time to time. Serena smiled stupidly. Eric had acquired the same devilish grin Chuck held when he got his way, and that grin was now firmly in place. Lily cleared her throat often and eyed them suspiciously. And Bart, well Bart just glared at his son from time to time and watched every time Chuck placed his arm behind Blair's chair.

"So, are any of you going to ask what you're dying to ask?" Chuck asked as the final course was served.

Lily looked him in the eyed and feigned innocence. "What do you mean?"

Bart, always one known to be straight forward, glanced pointedly at Chuck and Blair and spoke his mind.

"Well, it's not really something that needs to be asked. Apparently, the two of you have worked out your issues. Or so it may seem. I'm just concerned, and not for you son, but for Blair."

Chuck held his ground. He refused to allow his father to intimidate him anymore. He had done it once in the past and it didn't benefit his relationship with Blair to say the least.

"Well, Father, if you must know, yes Blair and I have decided to stay together. I love her," Chuck said matter of factly as he reached for Blair's hand and placed their interlocking grip on the table for all to see.

Serena smiled at Blair. "I'm so happy for you, B. You're actually glowing."

"Yeah, Chuck does have a way to make women glow," Eric added.

Lily's eyes widened as she looked at Eric. "Eric please. Mind your manners."

"Well it's true, Lily. But not women, Eric. Just a woman. And that's Blair." Chuck spoke like the prime example of a man in love.

"So, B, how did he win you over? Was it the flowers? Was it last night?" Serena said, loving this game of making Blair uncomfortable.

"Serena! Do you mind?" Blair said agitated. Embarrassment fell short of what she was feeling.

Chuck started smiling. "Well, sis, it was a combination of it all. I've done my share of groveling, and Blair finally decided to let me off the hook."

"Wow, Chuck Bass admitting to being whipped."

"Serena, that's enough. I won't tolerate that kind of talk at the table," Lily said, almost as embarrassed as Blair was.

"Neither will I. You guys are embarrassing my wife. Now if you'll excuse us, Blair and I have things to do."

Chuck extended his hand and helped Blair out of her seat. Blair surprisingly, had nothing to say and so she followed Chuck out of the dining room.

"Yeah, each other," Eric whispered. It was the last thing Blair heard before she ran away from the room, not wanting to hear another word.

It had been a few weeks since Blair had decided to give Chuck another chance. Things had been going pretty great. They were doing even better than when they'd first gotten married.

Blair was in her room, now their room, and was scavenging through her closet for clothes to wear for dinner. Serena sat in her bed watching her friend anxiously trying to find the perfect outfit.

"So are things really ok between you guys?" Serena asked.

"Yes! They're great actually. I really can't believe it, Serena. I've never been this happy." Blair turned around and looked at her then. "But sometimes I'm afraid that I'm too happy. I know it sounds ridiculous but I'm just scared of getting hurt again."

"Oh, B, come on. Just live a little. Chuck moved in here within the day of you agreeing to be with him. He's always around, and if he's not, he's always calling. And when he's over at our house, you're all he talks about. As much as it sucks to say this about him, he seems like a good guy now. He's changed. I think you changed him. Or at least not being with you changed him."

Blair smiled as she picked up a red dress and twirled around as she held it against her body. "How does this look?"

"For dinner with Chuck, Nate and I. Perfect. There's no one there you need to impress, even though you always manage to do so. Twirl around again."

Blair laughed as she began to spin again. She turned and turned, until suddenly she stopped mid stride. She gave Serena a pained look as she dropped the dress and ran into her adjoining bathroom.

Before Serena could ask her what was wrong, she heard the telltale sound. Serena laid back and released a distressed breath. From the looks of it, she guessed it was something along the lines of morning sickness.
