Later that night Chuck and Nate were playing pool in his suite.

"I think this weed has well and truly worn off drink?"

"Sure man." chuck clapped his best friend on the back glad they could put there differences behind them. Spending time with blair was fun it was great but he missed having another guy around. He walked over to his bar when his phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Chuck?" It was Serena on the other end she sounded drunk and upset.

"Serena whats wrong?"

"It's Blair- she -uh-"

"Serena tell me what going on now. Before I come down there and punch the fuck out of the first person I see."

"Okay she had a lot to drink and this guy kept asking her to dance and she kept saying no. And then he just kinda grabbed her I tried to stop him but I couldn't. And they were just sat talking so I thought it would be okay but he's trying to force himself on her."

"Do NOT let her out of your sight. I'll be there in 30 seconds."

"Okay hurry Chuck i'm worried."

"I won't let anything happen to her." He snapped the phone shut. "We gotta go Nate."

"What's going on?"

"Someone's tryna force themselves on Blair. We gotta go help them." They raced down the stairs. "When we find them and Blair's safe I'll get Blair out and you get Serena out bring her back to my suite at the palace okay?"

"Why cant we take her home?"

"Mot in this state you know what her mom will think."

"Why do you care so much?"

"She's my sister." They ran across to the bar, Chuck fought through the crowd until he found them.

"Get your fucking hands off her." The man stood up.

"Chuck?" Blair asked and his heart broke she was shaking and comp,et,y terrified

"who the fuck are you?"

"I'm Chuck Bass and that is my girlfriend." Chuck had him by the shirt.

"Well your girlfriend's a whore." Chuck let him go and punched him hard in the face four times. Until the man had to slump down. "Don't call her that come on Blair lets go." She nodded her head before one of other guys said.

"It's okay. We'll go for the blonde she looks like a whore anyway probably give it up easier." Chuck grabbed him.

"That's my fucking sister." He screamed before throwing him across the bar. He grabbed Blair's arm and lead her out the bar. Once they were outside she flung herself in his arms.

"Thank you for saving me."

"I told you to call me. If anyone gave you trouble call me. Why the fuck didn't you?"

"I don't know." She began crying. He pulled her in his arms again.

"I'm sorry Blair. I'm sorry this isn't your fault did he hurt you?" She shook her head but gripped onto him tighter, still crying."Come baby it's okay your safe now lets get you home."

"Wait Were's Serena?"

"Nate's getting her out. He's going to bring her to the hotel but we have to go." She nodded and followed him across the road wiping her eyes.

"You know it was really hot how you punched them guys out."

"Mess with you or Serena and I'll punch anyone out."

"What your girlfriend?"

"Look Blair, I'm sorry I just I had okay, I want you to be. I want to be with you but I'm not ready to treat you how you deserve. And if I ever lost you I don't know what I'd do. So I will ask you out when the times right and best believe its going to be the most romantic thing ever okay?"

"Okay."

/

"Serena come on we have to go."

"Nate? What are doing here? We can't leave without Blair were is she?"

"Chuck's got her but they had to leave. He just punched the guy out who was with Blair and one that called you a whore."

"He did that? Are you sure Blair left with him?"

"You know as well as I do chuck loves her. There's no way he'd punch a guy, and leave her, even if he had to carry her out. Come on Serena we'll go and find them." She got up and followed Nate out of the crowded bar.

Chuck and Blair stepped into his suite. Nate and Serena weren't there yet and Shuck started pacing.

"What if she ran off? What if he couldn't get her to come? What if something happens to her we shouldn't of left without them. Why did we leave without them?"

"Chuck stop okay?" She took his hands in hers. "You really care about her don't you." Her words were slurring but he understood her.

"She's family i've never had family before. And now I do i'd do anything to protect that." She pulled him into a kiss. " I should call Nate. I'll just call him and see where he's at." He picked his phone up and began to dial Nate's number, when him and Serena walked through the door he snapped his phone shut.

"Nathaniel. See Blair I told you they were fine. I was actually calling room service we should get the girls some food."

"No you were-" '

"Shh Blair you wasted okay? Just sit down i'll get you some food."

"Sit with me?"

"Always. Let me just phone room service first." He walked away phone to his ear.

"This is so weird!" Serena practically shouted as she sat down on the sofa also.

"What is?" Nate furrowed his brow in confusion

"Well me and Blair and you and Chuckie all here but you and Blair aren't together. And she's got this thing with Chuck and Chuck was her night in shinning armour not you silly!"

"Chuckie?! His name is Chuck! And if anyones gunna call him Chuckie." She stopped to hiccup "It will be me. You can have Nate by all means have him no hard feelings but Chuck is mine."

"I didn't mean anything by it Blair he's my brother thats it."

"Okay well i'm warning you and at some point i'll warn any girl that comes near him. Chuck's mine so everyone better back up." The two began laughing the previous argument forgotten. Chuck re-entered the room confused at what the two girl found so hilarious.

"What did i miss?"

"Serena thinking it's weird were all here but your with Blair i'm not your the night in shinning armour now buddy. And then they had a fight over you, well Serena called you Chuckie, and Blair got mad."Chuck just smirked. "Why are you so happy all of a sudden?"

"Blair got mad. Drunk or not that's jealousy." He walked over to the two girls and sat next to Blair who climbed on his lap. He wrapped his arms round her laying back into the couch lazily stroking her back.

"Chuck?"

"Mmm?"

"I hope you ask me to be your girlfriend soon i think i might be falling for you." She fell asleep almost instantly. Chuck smiled down at her Nate watched the whole scene with a smile. Shortly there was a knock at the door Nate answered it knowing it was room service he wheeled the trolley in as Chuck woke Blair up.

"Blair baby you need to get up and eat."

"I don't want to."

"Please for me? You don't want to get sick do you?" She shook her head. "Then you need to eat. Please Blair?"

"Okay." All four had a plate of food and the two girls had been given coffee to try and sober up. When they were finnished Chuck stood up.

"Right you put Serena in the room you used to use and i'll get Blair into bed. And Nate I know your an awkward fucker but don't let her sleep in her dress."

"You want me to undress her?" Nate's eyes widened

"yes Nathaniel you've seen it all before. Besides your just putting her to bed its not like i'm asking you to take advantage of her. If you did that id kick your ass but I trust you. All i'm asking is to make sure she gets to sleep comfortably."

"Okay." He nodded his head. And took Serena to bed as Chuck did the same. Chuck unzipped her dress and carried her to the bed placing her in it and tucking the covers around her.

"Good night Blair."

"Night Chuck." He went back to talk to Nate.

"You wanna stay on the sofa?"

"Yeah its late." Chuck poured the two a drink before sitting next to him on the sofa.

"Tell me about it the things we do for our girls eh?"

"Huh?"

"Come on don't tell me your not still completely in love with Serena?" Nate laughed.

"Okay you got me I just don't know what to do about it."

"All i'm gunna say is this treat my sister like you treated Blair i'll kill you." Nate looked guilty.

"I feel really bad i'm so-"

"It's cool. She's cool. You're cool. Just don't do it to Serena."

"Why aren't you and Blair together? I take back what I said before. One weekend with her and your a completely different Chuck. One that shock horror actually cares about people."

"Shut up Nathaniel." he got up "I'll see you in the morning." He went into his bedroom stripped off his clothes and laid next to Blair.

"Hey." She said sleepily.

"Hey." He wrapped his arms around her. "Did I wake you?"

"Yeah but it's okay." She joined his hand with hers before falling back asleep. Chuck did the same with a smile plastered on his face.
