*Chapter- Hey Baby, I think I Wanna Marry You!*
Blair ran through the empty hallways of the Empire. She heard a baby crying. Her baby.
"Chuck!" She screamed. She was alone but she still heard her child's cry. "Chuck!" She screamed again running up the stairs and onto the next floor. It led her onto a rooftop. She saw a man standing there with his back to her.
"Hello?" She called. The man turned around holding Blair and Chuck's baby. The baby was all dressed in blue.
"Louis" She spoke softly and he smiled wickedly at her.
"Hello, Blair" He greeted. "How nice of you to join us"
Blair heard a muffled scream and turned around to see Chuck gagged and tied to a chair. Russell Thorpe was holding a gun to the temple of his head.
"Chuck!" Blair screamed running over to him, making Russell remove the gun from Chuck's head and point it at hers.
Chuck screamed but it was muffled by his gag around his mouth.
"What was that, Chuckles?" Russell asked temporarily removing the gag from his mouth.
"Don't shoot her" Chuck managed out weakly. "I've told you; don't hurt them. Hurt me"
"What do you want?" Blair asked turning back around to Louis and her screaming son.
"Payback" Louis answered and as Blair ran for her baby boy, Louis held him further away.
"Give him to me!" Blair screamed.
"No. I told you I want payback"
"Just please. Please don't hurt him" Blair begged with tears streaming down her face. She turned to see Chuck. "Don't hurt either of them. I'm begging you"
"How about we play a little game?" Russell suggested pointing the gun back to Chuck's head. "You two love games"
"No!" Chuck screamed before Russell gagged him again.
"Yes. A game will be fun" Louis agreed.
"What kind of game?" Blair asked.
"You get to have the best part, Blair. Don't worry" Louis assured her with a sour smile.
Blair did not like where this was going and the fact that her child was screaming only made things worse.
"Choose" Louis said to her.
"Excuse me?" She asked confused.
"Choose which one you want. The baby or Chuck" Louis replied calmly. Blair felt as though she was about to collapse.
"I can't choose" She whispered.
"Well you have to" He paused. "Otherwise I'll kill them both"
"No!" Blair and a gagged Chuck screamed at once.
Louis and Russell laughed.
"Please, don't kill either of them" Blair begged falling to her knees. "Please, I'm begging you"
"Sorry" Louis mock apologised. "Times running out, Blair. I guess you'll lose them both"
"No!" Blair cried. "Kill me instead"
"That is not a part of the deal" Louis snapped. "Why should you get the easiest way out? Death is easy. It's quick. I want you to live with the guilt"
"No!" Blair screamed. "Please, don't hurt him"
"Times up, Blair. I guess you'll lose them both" Louis said slowly releasing his grip around the sobbing infant. She heard Russell pull the trigger in the background...
"No!" Blair screamed as she flew up out of her slumber and into an upright position. She was in bed and crying. It was all just a dream. Chuck opened his eyes next to her.
"What's wrong?" He asked. She slammed her hands down on his face just to make sure that it was defiantly him.
"Your okay" She breathed a sigh of relief before her hands drifted down to her bump. "So are you" She said to the baby. Chuck chuckled.
"Bad dream?"
"Awful. I don't even want to talk about it" She replied.
"You'll feel a whole lot better if you do" He encouraged sitting up next to her and wrapping an arm around her shoulder. He kissed her head gently. "Go on"
"I was on the Empire's rooftop and the baby was in Louis' arms and he was crying and Russell Thorpe had you tied to a chair with a gag in your mouth and he was pointing a gun to you head" Blair began to break down into tears.
"Hey, hey is okay" He soothed.
"A-and I had to choose between you or the baby" She sobbed. Chuck didn't quite understand what she meant by 'choose' but then he understood perfectly.
"Oh"
"I-I couldn't. And s-so I think they killed you both" She began crying hysterically. "My baby boy"
"Shhh, it wasn't real" He held her close to him and let her cry. "Shh our baby is okay" He told her bringing his hand around to cup the bump. "See"
She looked down at the small roundness of her abdomen before looking back up at him.
"It was awful" She told him. "I don't want Louis or Russell going anywhere near our Son"
Chuck's eyes widened. "Son?" He asked.
"The baby was a boy in the dream. I figured it must be a sign" She said before looking back down at her bump. "And Mommy is going to keep her little boy safe, no matter what"
Chuck stared at the bump in astonishment. He had never really thought about the sex of the baby that much. He didn't really mind if their child was a he or a she. Just as long as they were healthy.
"A boy" He smiled before kissing his unborn son.
"That's if we all survive the 'Eleanor telling' tomorrow" Blair said. Chuck looked up and gave her a quick kiss.
"Hmmm. Have you told your Dad about why you left Louis yet?" He asked. She shook her head.
"I don't want to" She admitted. "It makes me feel weak telling anyone. No one except you knows"
He smiled against her lips. "But you love your Dad, and you tell him everything"
"I know" She looked at him. "But I love you more"
"Blair! Charles! Breakfast!" Harold called from downstairs.
"Speak of the devil" Chuck mocked. Blair kissed him quickly before she pulled the gold sheets off of herself and climbed out of the bed. Chuck followed her before shoving on a white T-shirt.
"Ready?" She asked. He nodded and held out his hand.
"Ready"
XOXO
They walked into the dining room to find the large dining table completely covered with food. Harold and Roman looked up.
"Good Morning" Harold and Roman smiled in unison. Chuck and Blair smiled back and walked over to their seats. Blair stared at all of the food.
"Daddy, there is enough food here to feed an entire city!" Blair said finally choosing some blueberries and a green apple. Chuck took two hard boiled eggs and toast.
"Well we need to make sure that we all have enough energy for tomorrow night" Harold replied.
"Yes, we will need all of the energy to run away before Eleanor garbs hold of us!" Roman exclaimed.
Everyone chuckled.
"So, have you worked out what exactly you are going to say to her?" Harold asked. Blair shook her head.
"Not yet" Blair looked at Chuck. "But were going to decide on it later on"
XOXO
Blair and Chuck were sitting in the greenest part of the garden on sun loungers. Blair had a lilac dress on and Chuck had a matching shade of lilac short sleeved shirt and white knee-length pants.
"So, how about we eat first, and then tell her. Then make up some excuse about leaving?" Blair suggested.
"Minimum damage control, but I don't think I can sit through a whole dinner having your Mother's hawk eyes on me. Plus I hate Jewish celebration food!" He replied.
"Chuck! No-one is asking you to get a circumcision! Just pretend to eat it and then drop it into your napkin like I do. Especially if its cheese broccoli!"
"As if I would ever let a scalpel near my manhood! But if that's what you want to do then that's okay. It is your Mother after all"
Harold appeared. "Okay, you tow. I just called Eleanor then and she said that we have to be there by seven. And we have those Kippah's to wear" He replied.
"Okay, thanks Daddy. Where's Roman?" Blair asked.
"Ah, he went to the gym" Harold answered. Chuck smiled at Blair.
"Mr Waldorf, could I speak with you for a moment?" Chuck asked. Harold smiled but it looked forced. "In private"
Harold nodded. "Sure, Charles"
Chuck kissed Blair's cheek. "I'll only be a moment"
"Okay" She agreed.
Chuck followed Harold into a small vineyard, so that Blair couldn't hear.
"So what do you plan on doing about it?" Harold asked as he and Chuck walked. Chuck looked puzzled. "About Blair and the pregnancy?"
"Nothing" Chuck answered before seeing Harold's expression and realising that it was the wrong answer. "Well, obviously I'll be there 100% for her and the baby" Chuck corrected quickly before flashing the older man a smile.
"So do you really think that you're better for her than Louis is? What do you have to offer, Charles apart from money?" Harold asked, his voice becoming colder.
"Harold, I know that you love Louis, you think that he is a wonderful man and I've hurt Blair so many times in the past-"
Harold interrupted Chuck's speech. "How do I know that you're not going to do it all again? This time she'll have a baby as well"
Chuck's back straightened. There was no way that he would be a coward ever again. He wasn't in High School anymore, he was a mature adult. Who would not be abandoning Blair or his unborn child, ever.
"I will be there for my Son and Blair no matter what, Mr Waldorf. And as for Louis, well you need to ask Blair the real reason why she started coming to me for comfort" Chuck replied knowing fully well the door he had just opened.
"What do you mean 'Real Reason?'" Harold asked. He was quick, Chuck noted. But he had to be sneaky, Blair didn't want to tell her Father about the dark side of Louis, but at this point, Chuck felt that Blair had no other options. Her Father clearly wasn't taking to the news of an illegitimate Grandchild or divorce as well as the young couple had thought.
"Ask your daughter. That's a conversation that you need to have with her" Chuck finished the subject. He straightened his tie before speaking again. "Now I asked to speak to you privately because I am planning on asking Blair to become my wife, once her divorce is finalised of course. Now I know that Blair would love it if I got your blessing, but if you don't give me it, then I'm going to ask her to marry me anyway" Chuck announced.
"You want to marry her?" Harold asked in shock. Chuck nodded.
"Yes, Sir" He answered. He sucked in a large amount of air before he began his pre-prepared speech. "I just want you to know that I love your Daughter very much, Mr Waldorf" Chuck began. He was so nervous, his hands were shaking as though thousands of volts of electricity had just passed through them, he was beginning to sweat and he was sure that his legs had turned into jelly. Pull yourself together man! Your Chuck freaking Bass! You don't get nervous about things like this, you don't get nervous about anything for Christ's sakes! A voice in his head scolded him.
Harold was still staring at him. Waiting.
"She is the most beautiful, intelligent and loving woman a man could ever ask for. And, I know that I have hurt her in the past, but I need you to know that I'm not that same teenage boy I used to be and I will never break her heart again, I promise. And I honestly can't imagine spending my life with anyone else but her and my child, I feel so blessed that she is having my Son or Daughter. And I would like to ask her to become my wife and I'm here today to ask you for your blessing for her hand in marriage." Chuck began to panic at the last part. So much for keeping it short but sweet. He thought to himself.
Harold cleared his throat. "Charles, in the light of recent events" He paused and Chuck was actually trembling and for the first time in his life, he actually felt sick at the confrontation. "I think that asking her to marry you is the most sensible approach. At least then you will have a fighting chance with Eleanor"
"I-Is that a yes?" Chuck stuttered. Harold smiled at Chuck.
"Yes"
A huge smile broke onto Chuck's face and he felt like skipping.
"Thank you! Thank you so much, Mr Waldorf. I won't let her down. I promise and I know that you are still wary of me I think you need to speak to Blair about Louis" Chuck replied. Harold nodded.
"You are clearly worried about her telling me this thing. That proves that you really do care about her" Harold replied and suddenly Chuck understood, this was a test of some sort.
"I do" Chuck smiled. "I've honestly never felt like this about anyone. Ever"
At that moment, Blair appeared and walked over to her Father and Chuck as fast as she could without running. She settled by Chuck who wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Hi" He smiled at her as she looked up at her.
"Hi" She returned before looking at her Father. "Daddy, I think Roman is back from is gym class" She told her Father.
"What makes you think that, Blair Bear?" Harold asked.
"I just saw the shadow of someone outside. It was quite a tall and muscular man so I just assumed it was Roman. It was through the bushes" Blair answered.
Harold looked puzzled. "No, he would've only just arrived at gym class let alone left it. I'll call him and find out though, he might have left something behind"
Harold pulled out his phone and dialled Roman's number. Blair listened as the older men talked on both ends of the phone in French. Harold ended the call and put the phone back into his pocket.
"It wasn't him. He's just arrived at the gym" Harold explained. "Why don't we all go and get some lunch?" Harold asked changing the subject.
"That sounds like a good idea" Chuck agreed and Harold walked back into the house. Chuck smiled at Blair.
"Chuck, I saw someone" Blair announced as Chuck began following Harold. Chuck turned around to face her.
"Blair, your Dad just said. There is no way that it could've been Roman and this château is on a hill with gates at the bottom. There is no way that anyone could've gotten up here" He explained.
"I saw someone, Chuck. They were standing on the other side of the bushes" She explained. He looked as though he didn't believe her. "I know what I saw" She stated annoyed that he didn't believe.
"Blair, I must have just been the light on the trees. As I said, no one can get up here and all of the staff will be inside" He said.
"You don't believe me, do you?"
He sighed. "Blair, I just think that it was the trees. I thought I saw someone before, and then I realised"
"Why didn't you tell me?" She asked annoyed.
"Because I didn't wanna worry you. So let's just get you inside and get some food" He smiled leading her into the house.
XOXO
After they had eaten, Chuck had to go and call Nate to make sure that everything at the Empire was all okay and so Blair decided this was the best time to talk to her Father and make him less mad about the whole situation. But before she had chance to even get up off of the couch she was currently seated on, Harold appeared and sat next to her.
"Hi, Daddy" Blair smiled. Harold smiled back and came to sit next to his Daughter.
"Hello, Sweetheart" He replied. "Where is Charles?"
"He just went to go and call Nate. Make sure that the Empire is still standing" She joked the last part and Harold laughed.
"He said something before to me" Harold said losing his smile. Blair stared at him.
"What did he say?" She asked cautiously.
"He said that I needed to ask you 'The real reason why you started going to him for comfort'" Harold answered. Blair sighed and looked down at her lap in annoyance.
"I cannot believe him!" She muttered through gritted teeth.
"He is very concerned about you, Blair. We all are" Harold defended Chuck slightly. "But now I need to know"
Blair sighed again and looked back up at her Dad with tear filled eyes.
"Louis and I didn't have a nice marriage" She admitted. "I wasn't happy. At all" She began crying slightly, quickly wiping away escaped tears.
"Tell me" He encouraged.
"We used to fight" She began. "Really fight, he used to hit me" She admitted. Harold looked shocked.
"What?" He asked. Blair nodded.
"He threw me into the side of a bookcase when I embarrassed his family by bringing up that you are Gay and when I confronted him about having se with Sigrid Agren, the model, he slapped me" She exampled.
"Why didn't you tell me any of this?" Harold asked.
"Because I couldn't tell anyone. I didn't even tell Chuck, he figured it out. I couldn't even admit it to myself, Daddy" She sobbed and Harold handed her a spare hankie.
"There there" He soothed.
"And Chuck is so wonderful" She smiled slightly.
Harold noticed Chuck walk into the room but stopped when he heard Blair talking. He leaned against the door panel and listened.
"He listens to me and comforts me when I'm upset and he really knows me. He doesn't expect me to be perfect like Louis did and he likes it when I have a voice unlike Louis. He loves that I'm a powerful woman" Blair said through her tears. "And he's so gentle around me and the baby, it's like one wrong move and I'll break" She laughed slightly.
"Well, this is the happiest that I've ever seen you with a man" Harold smiled.
"I love him" She replied smiling.
Harold pointed to the doorframe and Blair turned her head to see Chuck leaning against it, smiling at her.
"Hi" Chuck smiled. Blair giggled.
"Hi"
"Would you like to come for a walk?" He asked. Blair nodded, stood up and took his hand.
"Okay" She smiled walking over to him.
XOXO
The sun was now setting and they had been walking for a long time, hand in hand. Not speaking about anything. After a while, Blair decided it was time to break the silence.
"I told my Daddy" She announced.
"Told him what?" Chuck asked.
"About Louis"
"Oh. What did he say?"
"He was understanding" She told him. "I think he likes you a whole lot more now"
"Good. I'm proud of you for telling him. That took a lot of courage" Chuck smiled.
"Well it's a good job that I have a lot of courage then, isn't it?" She smiled making him laugh. "What were you talking to him about?" She casually asked and Chuck let out a small chuckle again. He was waiting for this question.
"Nothing major" He lied.
"Oh. Do I get to know what it was?" She asked.
"Later. Let's eat first" He answered as they walked over to an area where you could see the sunset perfectly. He pointed to a white rectangular table, covered with a white tablecloth.
On opposite sides of it were two large dining chairs, also white. On the table sat three white candles in crystal holders and a large bouquet of pink peonies in a clear vase. On the table sat a single peony.
"Chuck" She looked at him. "This is amazing"
"So are you" He replied taking his hand out of hers, walking over to the table to collect the single peony and walking back to her, handing it her. She took it.
"How did you do this?" She asked still amazed as she felt the texture of the flower.
"I've had it planned for some time" He replied kissing her. She tasted like strawberries and smelt of vanilla and coconuts. A smell that completely intoxicated him. He smiled against her lips leading her over to her chair and pulling it out for her. She sat in it and he pushed it back under before taking his own seats. He then signalled something and a caterer appeared filling their champagne flutes with orange juice.
"You know, you can drink. I don't mind" She said as she began sipping his orange.
"I don't mind drinking orange" He replied. The waiter returned with Waldorf salads for them and Blair smiled at Chuck.
"Waldorf salads?" She asked.
"Well you are a Waldorf aren't you?" He asked jokingly. She smiled at him.
"Yes"
After the salads, they had lobster pot pie, which Chuck knew she adored, they had macaroons. Blair was half way through eating a green apple one when she spoke.
"What is all of this about?" She asked.
"Can't I spoil my beautiful Girlfriend who I love very much and who is also carrying my Son?" He asked. She giggled. "Even though we are only going off the fact that he's a boy due to a recent dream"
Blair laughed. "I just have a feeling"
"And I just have a feeling that your right" He agree. She smiled and looked down at his hand holding hers.
"You know, this might be the last diner that we have together before I'm murdered" He said. She laughed again.
"I know, it's like the last supper. My Mother will be ruthless tomorrow" She giggled.
He laughed and looked at the still-setting sun.
"Come with me" He smiled standing up and offering his hand to her. She took it and they walked over to the part of the hill before it descended so that they could get the best possible view of the sunset. She leaned her head on his shoulder and he wrapped his arm around her waist, holding her close to his side, he placed a hand on her bump.
"This is perfect" She smiled.
"Well, there is one thing that could make it better" He replied. She looked at him and he removed his hand from her waist and put it into his trouser pocket. "Will you tell me that you love me?"He asked.
She was confused. "Why?" She asked.
"For courage and support" He answered.
"Chuck Bass, I love you" She told him. He smiled. "But why do you need courage and support-?" She stopped when he pulled a small black box out of his pocket and knelt down on one knee.
"For this" He answered staring up at her. "I am so sorry for everything that I have done to upset you in the past. And I know that I can never take that back but I want to try and make it up to you. Even if it takes me the rest of my life. When I told you all of those years ago that I love you, I meant it. And I said it because I have always wanted to do this. Ever since I can remember" He opened the box revealing the fabulous 8 carat diamond set in platinum ring. It was the most beautiful thing she'd ever seen. She gasped, she couldn't breathe, she couldn't move.
"I've always to ask you this: Blair Cornelia Waldorf, I love you. Will you do me the enormous honour of becoming my wife?" He asked slightly shakily.
She gasped. "Oh, Chuck"
He stared at her. He was unable to tell whether she would say yes or no. She looked as though she was about to cry. Tears filled her eyes.
"Will you marry me?" He asked. She stared at the box, at the ring and then him. She had never seen him looking this scared before.
A huge smile burst across her face. "Of course! Of course I'll marry you!" She cried excitedly. He smiled enormously as he took the ring from the box and placed it on her finger. She smiled down at it and he kissed her hand before standing up.
"I love you" She cupped his face in her hands. "Charles Bartholomew Bass"
He kissed her before picking her up in his arms and twirling her around. She giggled like an excited little girl.
"Were getting married!" She giggled and Chuck set her down and kissed her cheek.
"Yes we are!"
She took his hand and began to lead him back to the chateau. Once they were inside, they ran up to their bedroom and she closed and locked the door. She turned around to see Chuck smiling at her. Behind him was lit candles and macaroons on a silver plate and glasses of orange juice.
She gasped when she saw the bed. It was covered in peony petals.
"Oh Chuck" She gushed for the second time that night.
"I wanted to make everything perfect for you" He replied. He walked over and kissed her. There was so much passion in the kiss it almost took her breath away.
He led her over to the bed and gently lay her down on it, unzipping her dress and pulling it off of her as he did so and within moments, both were pulling at each other's clothes. Desperate to get them off. Off went his bowtie, then his jacket. She pushed him down so that he was on the bottom now and he reached up to cup her breasts dressed in purple lingerie. He kissed each one of them.
"I am very impressed with your choice of lingerie, Miss Waldorf" Chuck said seductively. Blair leaned down and kissed his hungry lips.
"It's not going to be Miss Waldorf for much longer thank you very much" She replied as she stared at the giant rock on her finger.
"You like?" He asked. She nodded.
"You did good, Bass. Now you're going to get your reward"
Off came his shirt and pants, leaving them both in just their underwear.
He un-hooked her bra as he applied plenty of kisses to her neck and shoulder. They kissed some more as he felt his erection building in his boxer shorts. She must have felt it too because she smirked seductively at him and ran her fingers through his hair. She kissed his chest lightly dusted with brown chest hair.
He kissed the crease of her breasts and removed her bra leaving her in just her panties.
He smirked and continued to kiss her, he turned her over so that he was now on top of her.
"I love you" He told her. She smiled.
"I love you" She returned kissing him.
He began to lead a trail of kisses down to her belly and caressed the bump.
"Mommy and Daddy are getting married" He told his unborn child. Blair giggled.
"As much as I adore you talking to our unborn Son, I'm incredibly horny. So will you please fuck me?" She asked seductively.
"Well, how can I ever refuse an offer like that?" He asked taking off his boxers and her panties before and positioned himself at her opening.
"You sure?" He asked. She nodded.
"Yes. Absolutely. About everything. Now make love to me"
It just so happens that Chuck Bass is very good at flowing orders when it comes to Blair Waldorf and he slid his hard penis into her waiting heat slowly. She smiled and looked into his eyes that were practically the same colour as hers. He found her hand and held it as he began to thrust inside of her only to pull out and repeat the process. He was slow at first but that's not what Blair wanted from him.
"Chuck, harder. Faster" She pleaded and so he followed his orders and became faster and harder, giving the girl of his dreams what she longed for.
She gripped onto his back and he felt the warm platinum of the engagement ring on his skin. It was as though it was edging him on. She bit down on his muscular shoulder seductively making him take her hand in his as he carried on 'Making love' to his Fiancé.
He could hear her whimpering beneath him and he knew that she was almost at her peak, which was good because he was almost at his. She began to open her mouth and it shaped the form of an 'O' as she cried out "Chuck! Ohhhh!"
"Um, baby I want you, won't you come to me? I'm not gonna hurt you" He replied huskily.
"Oh!"
"Come to me, Mrs Bass" He whispered in his 'bedroom voice'.
He watched as her eyes began to roll back into her head and with one last hard and quick thrust, her muscles tightened around him as she squeezed his hand and dug her nails in slightly, her hips buckled up towards him. He came a second or so after she did and shouted her name.
He pulled out of her, let go of her hand and fell onto his side of the bed, both of them gasping for air. She couldn't speak.
"Wow" He whispered. She turned on her side to gaze at him.
"I think I prefer engagement sex to hate sex" Blair giggled.
"Better than sneaking-around-sex?"
"Yes"
He smiled at her. "Come here"
She shuffled over to him and laid her arms on his chest and passionately kissed his lips. "I can't believe were getting married!" She announced excitedly smiling. He smiled back and kissed her, gently running his fingers through her curls.
"I cannot wait to marry you" He beamed. "After your divorce is finalised of course"
She giggled. "Of course" She looked into his eyes. "How long have you been planning this engagement?" She asked.
"Since you left me at Dorota's wedding" He answered.
She laughed again. "No, I mean how long have you been planning this engagement?" She asked. "The French one not the failed hospital or engagement to Louis one"
"Since you told me that you love me, that night at the Empire. The night that you had to rush home to Louis because he called you. I wanted to propose to you somewhere romantic. And France is nothing if not romantic. That's what I was talking to you Dad about before" He answered.
"Well, luckily for you, third time lucky really is real" She laughed. She looked down at her ring. "You risked your life for this" She announced remembering what happened in Prague. He took her hand and kissed the ring.
"Talk about a blood diamond" He joked. She slapped his chest lightly.
"That's awful!" She cried but she was laughing a little. He kissed her.
"I'm just glad that we can put everything behind us. And finally have our fairy tale" He smiled.
"Me too" She replied settling into his arms.
XOXO
*Second Chapter-Confessions*
Blair who was now dressed in a pink dress with a bow and pink Jimmy Choo heels to match turned to Chuck who was in a pinstripe suit with a pink tie that seemed to match his Fiancé's dress perfectly. He was just adding some cufflinks that Blair had bought him as a gift a few months ago. On his head sat a navy Kippah.
"I'm not sure that were doing the right thing here, Chuck. Maybe we should just wait a few more weeks" Blair suggested.
"Blair, we need to do it tonight otherwise we'll keep putting it off until eventually you'll be in labour and your Mom won't even know that you're pregnant" He replied.
"I just don't want her to think less of me" She said smoothing her dress out over her slight bump.
"She won't"
"Of course she will, Chuck! We don't exactly have a Mother-Daughter-Relationship as it is! And she doesn't even know that I'm not with Louis anymore!" She snapped. Chuck sighed.
"Blair-"
"She'll probably disown me or kick me out of her house. This is awful, we should have just called her!" She glared at him. "This is all your fault! I just wanted to call her but you said no!" She shouted. Chuck sighed again.
"Look, Blair. I'm already wearing a tiny hat, I will be eating a load of food that I don't particularly like whilst Cyrus says something that I don't particularly understand and then probably getting murdered by your Mother. What more do you want from me?" He snapped a little. "Oh and to top it all off, I'm pretending that I'm Jewish and my gorgeous girl is in a horrible mood swing and I've just reacted badly to it" He added.
He anger seemed to fade a little and she walked over to him.
"Do you really wanna know what I want, Bass?" She asked wrapping her arms around his neck.
"Yes"
"I want you" She answered kissing him. She pulled away and rested her forehead against his. "And our Son" She added making him smile. "And a hug"
He smiled and pulled her into a hug, holding her close to him. his arms holding her waist and their heads on each other's shoulders. He kissed her shoulder lightly.
There was a knock on the door before it slowly opened and in stepped Harold and Roman.
"We heard shouting. Is everything Kay?" Harold asked Chuck and Blair who were still hugging onto each other. Blair lifted her head to smile at her Father and Step-Father.
"Everything's fine, Daddy. Chuck and I just had a little banter but it's all okay now" She answered. Harold smiled slightly and let go of Blair to rest a hand on her waist instead and kiss her temple.
"Okay the. Are you guys ready?" Roman asked. "It's Showtime!"
Blair sighed. "More like Death-Time" She corrected before turning to Chuck. "Actually, I better add a shield to my 'want' list" He laughed and smiled at her.
XOXO
Blair and Chuck walked out of the elevator together. Harold and Roman were dressed in their usual summer clothing. Eleanor rushed over as soon as she saw the four of them.
"Mom, hi" Blair greeted her Mother.
"What is this I hear about you creating a mob scene at a charity event?" Eleanor whispered sternly so that her other guests, Cyrus' Mother and his Son, Aaron didn't hear.
"Mom-" Blair began.
"Eleanor-" Charles began at the same time as Blair did. Eleanor turned sharply to him.
"Charles, I will deal with you in a minute!" She snapped before turning back to Blair waiting for an answer. Blair straightened her position.
"I'm not with Louis anymore" She stated.
"Why the hell not?" Eleanor asked annoyed.
"Because I love Chuck" Blair announced taking Chuck's hand in hers.
"Blair, how many times must we go through this, you do not love him. He is no good for you-" Eleanor began her rant and by the sounds of things, Chuck worked out that they must have this conversation a lot.
"I'm better for her than he is" Chuck defended suddenly.
"I said I'll deal with you later, Charles" Eleanor said through gritted teeth. Cyrus approached them and Blair's face lit up.
"Cyrus!" Blair cried excitedly.
"Blair, Darling!" The little man cried running up to her hugging her. After a while they both let go before exclaiming.
"Not enough!" Blair cried.
Blair was thankful for one of her Step-Fathers hugs as it kept her from crying. Cyrus looked at Chuck and then smiled.
"Chuck, hello" He greeted like it was nothing extra ordinary about that fact that Blair had come with a date to this meal that was not her husband.
"Hey, Cyrus" Chuck returned. Cyrus then went to go and greet Harold and Roman.
"Let's go and have Shabbat!" Cyrus announced excitedly.
"I do not want to cause a scene now but later, I want to speak to you" Eleanor said through gritted teeth.
Blair and Chuck turned to Harold and Roman.
"So I take it that she knows about the whole leaving Louis thing?" Roman asked. Blair and Chuck nodded.
"Oh yes, she knows" Harold replied.
XOXO
Cyrus and Eleanor, Aaron Rose, Cyrus' Mother, Chuck, Blair, Harold and Roman are sat at the table.
"Okay, so we will start with the lighting of the candle" Eleanor said standing up and lighting two candles.
"We'll tell them after dinner, then we'll leave" Chuck whispered to Blair. She nodded in agreement.
"Okay"
"Good call btw, not wearing your ring"
"Well, we haven't even told my Dad yet. That was the last thing on my mind"
"Baruch ata Adonai, Eloheynu melech ha-olam.
asher kid-shanu b'mitzvotav, v'tzivanu
l'hadlik ner shel Shabbat" Cyrus began. "Now it is time for the kiddish, or the blessing of the wine. So I will just pour everyone some wine"
"I'll do it" Eleanor offered standing up and pouring everyone some wine. She came to Blair's glass.
"Oh not for me, thanks" Blair said quickly but sweetly.
"Blair, you have to plus you love red wine" Eleanor insisted.
"I know I'm just not feeling very well" Blair lied.
"You have to drink its, its Shabbat!" Eleanor was losing patience with her daughter.
"I'm not even Jewish!" Blair snapped.
"She has been very unwell today, Eleanor" Harold said stepping in. Eleanor looked annoyed but still poured her daughter some anyway.
"Wine is good for not feeling well" Eleanor replied.
"Baruch ata Adonai, Eloheynu melech ha-olam,
borey p'ri ha-gafen." Cyrus said in Hebrew before translating it. "I praise Adonai, who is Lord and Ruler over all, for creating the grapes of the vine"
"Now, if we could all drink the wine" Cyrus said. Blair looked at Chuck needing help.
"Just pretend" He whispered.
Blair nodded and Blair took the glass to her lips but didn't open them.
"Nice wine, Cyrus" She lied.
"Thank you, Dear" He smiled. "Now we shall have our appetiser, cold broccoli and cheese soup"
The words hit Blair and Chuck like a ton of bricks.
"Oh God" She whispered.
"You can't eat some cheeses" He told her.
"I know!" She snapped.
"Cyrus, Eleanor's daughter and her friend are talking during the dinner!" Cyrus' Mother pointed out. Blair and Chuck glared at the old woman. It was bad enough that Chuck had to wear one of those little hats and pretend he was Jewish but he wouldn't let Blair eat something that could seriously harm their Son.
"Blair, have some it will make you feel much better" Eleanor said handing Blair a plate of it.
"No thank you, Mother. I'm good" Blair replied sweetly. This night really seemed to be against pregnant women!
"Blair, have some"
"No, I don't want any cheese" Blair said through gritted teeth her patience wearing thin.
Chuck took Blair's hand under the table for support.
"Blair, what has gotten into you? First you don't want wine, and then you don't want to eat. Stop causing a scene" Eleanor replied in the same tone that her daughter had.
"I'm not, Mother I simply don't want any"
"You are ruining this meal for everyone! Now eat some cheese and broccoli!" Eleanor scolded before leaning in closer. "Have you been snacking all day? Because let me tell you, it has certainly made you put on some weight. Especially around your stomach"
"I can't eat it, Mother!" Blair shouted making everyone stare at her.
"Why? You are not lactose intolerant!"
"Because I'm pregnant!" Blair almost screamed. She felt Chuck's hand tighten on hers under the table as he took his last breath before he was to be murdered by Eleanor.
"We were going to tell you after dinner. If she eats cheese, then it increases her chances of miscarriage, stillbirth or severe illness in a newborn baby" Chuck recited what he had read online.
"What? You're pregnant?" Eleanor asked shocked.
"It was a total surprise for us too" Chuck said as Blair had completely frozen.
"Wait? Us? It's your baby? You're the Father?" Eleanor snapped.
"Yes" Blair admitted for him.
"So that's the real reason why you left Louis?" Eleanor asked piecing everything together.
"Yes"
"I don't believe it! Blair, how stupid can you be?" Eleanor roared and it looked like a peaceful celebration dinner was about to become a bloodbath.
"We didn't plan for it!" Bair defended.
"Well how far gone are you?" Eleanor questioned.
"Thirteen weeks" Blair replied.
"So you can still have an abortion?" Eleanor asked, her eyes lighting up at the thought.
Blair was shocked and speechless as was everyone else at the table that was now witnessing the whole thing.
"I'm not having an abortion, Mother! I'm keeping my baby!" Blair screamed.
"You cannot keep the baby! You'll become a joke!"
"Well guess what, Mother? I am having a baby! And I am getting a divorce! And Chuck and I are getting married!" Blair shouted raged. She then ran out of the room. Chuck embarrassedly turned to Cyrus.
"I am so sorry, Cyrus" Chuck apologised. "It looks delicious" Cyrus nodded.
"No it's alright. Congratulations" He congratulated.
"Thank you"
"Congratulations?" Eleanor screamed. "Congratulations?"
Chuck shook his head before getting up and walking off to find Blair.
She was sat in her bedroom on her bed hugging a pillow and crying. It was different to her one at her Father's house. This one didn't have nearly as much thought gone into it. He closed the door gently behind him making her look up.
"Hi" He almost whispered coming to sit on the bed beside her. "So that didn't exactly go to plan did it?"
"I know" She began crying. "What are we going to do, Chuck? She hates me"
"Hey" He lifted her chin up with his fingers and looked into her eyes. "She does not hate you, okay? She hates me"
She attempted to wipe away the tears in her eyes.
"But there is no way that I'm going to let her talk to you like that. This isn't done yet" He stood up and kissed her before disappearing in search for Eleanor. Blair stood up and made her way over to her mirror, checking her make-up. A figure entered the room and stared at Blair.
"And what about you, my sneaky Daughter? Are you done yet?" The figure asked. Blair's back straightened.
"What do you mean 'Sneaky?'" Blair asked still looking at her Mother from the glass in the mirror.
"You played nice so that you have your Father's back on this one, didn't you? Of course, your Daddy doesn't know that you have an agenda for absolutely everything" Eleanor replied.
"Mom, I have no idea what the hell you're talking about! I don't have an agenda-"
"Of course you do! All you ever do is think about yourself! Do you know what this will do to me? To my company? Do you know how disappointed we are in you?" Eleanor asked annoyed. Blair still looked into the mirror.
"Well it was not my intention to hurt you but offence, Mom. But I really don't give a crap if you're disappointed in me anymore. I'm done trying to be perfect!" Blair returned.
"Did you even think about anything for a second? Think about what it will do to this family?"
"No because I was too busy thinking about my new family instead!" She shot back turning around to face her Mother.
"I cannot believe you, Blair. Once again you are acting like a reckless teenager!" Eleanor replied, disgusted.
"I'm 22 years old, Mother! I'm not a child!" Blair shouted.
"Well you sure as hell are acting like one!"
"Daddy isn't being like this! Sure he was upset, but he wasn't telling me to have an abortion!" Blair shouted.
"Of course he isn't! He and Roman live in this little bubble and he thinks that adding a bastard lovechild will be fine and that everyone will live happily ever after! Roman is probably ordering things for a nursery as we speak!"
"Why can't you just be happy for me? I know what I'm doing!" Blair shouted back at her Mother.
"No you don't! Chuck Bass has you under some sort of spell and you're too blind to see it!" Eleanor replied coming closer to Blair.
"I am not under a spell! I'm in love with him!" She defended.
"Oh please! You don't know what love is. Louis is the most wonderful man-" Eleanor began going on about Louis.
"Mom! Get over it! I'm getting a divorce! Chuck and I are getting married! We're starting a family!" Blair screamed so loudly that Eleanor's face became shocked.
After a moment, Eleanor composed herself into a cold look.
"You ARE NOT getting a divorce, Blair. Charles is just a phase-"
"Charles, is the Father of my unborn child. And as soon as my divorce is finalised, he'll be my husband too" Blair said through gritted teeth. Her tiny hands becoming tight fists.
Eleanor stepped closer to her daughter so that they were practically face-to-face. Eleanor was taller ad Blair had to look up slightly so that she could see her.
"This is how it is going to be, Blair; You are going to call Louis and apaologise, beg if you must for a second chance. Next, you are going to end things with Charles and finally, you are going to have an abortion" Eleanor told her Daughter strictly.
"And why on Earth would I do any of that?" Blair challenged.
"Because I am your Mother, and I am telling you to" Eleanor answered coldly.
"The days of you telling me what to do are behind us"
"Stop being so childish!"
"Funny, I wasn't aware that a child could get married or get pregnant" Blair said sarcastically.
"You are having an abortion!"
"To hell I am!"
"Listen, Young Lady. I will drag you to the clinic by your hair if I have too"
"You really are a spiteful bitch, you know that right? You may have been able to bully me into doing things like this when I was younger, but not now. And if you don't want to be included in your Grandchild's life, then that's fine! But don't you dare tell me what is going to happen to my family!" Blair said through gritted teeth as the tears filled her eyes again.
She quickly walked past her Mother and stormed out of the bedroom. Chuck was waiting outside.
"Come on, were leaving!" Blair announced. Chuck nodded.
"Okay" He agreed.
Blair stormed back down the stairs and into the silent dining room. Everyone tuned around to stare at Blair.
"Blair Bear? Are you alright?" Harold asked alarmed. Blair nodded and wiped away an escaped tear.
"I'm fine, Daddy. Or I will be. I just really want to go back to the Chateau" Blair answered before turning to Cyrus. "Cyrus, I am so sorry. I've ruined Shabbat" She apologised.
"It's quite alright, Blair. And congratulations! On the pregnancy and the engagement!" Cyrus congratulated standing up and hugging her.
"Thank you" Blair smiled even though she was sobbing. "I knew you'd understand" She whispered.
"Your Mother will come around, don't worry" He assured her.
"Thank you, but I'm not sure that she will"
"I'll bring her around. Don't worry" Cyrus told her. she smiled and pulled out of the hug.
"I'll call you soon" She smiled. He nodded.
"Okay"
Harold stood up too. "We'll go with you, Blair" He announced. Blair smiled at her Father.
"Thank you, Daddy"
"I'll go and get your jacket" Chuck told Blair before walking off. Blair looked down at her wrist, noticing that her bracelet wasn't there.
"I've just left my bracelet upstairs" She said going off to get it.
Chuck, holding Blair's cardigan, walked back into the hallway looking for her. He couldn't find her. Eleanor appeared I the hallway and walked over to him. She looked pissed.
"You just couldn't leave well enough alone could you?" She seethed walking over.
"Excuse me?" He asked.
"What? It wasn't enough that you brainwashed her into thinking what the two of you have is love? You just had to go and sleep with her and get her pregnant so that she'd be tied to you forever, didn't you?" Eleanor asked and Chuck could tell that he was supposed to be grovelling for mercy at this point. Of course, he was Chuck Bass. He'd only ever grovelled to one person in his life. And it was not Eleanor Waldorf.
"For starters, I did not 'Brainwash' your daughter. She needed someone to turn to and I was the only one that was there who was willing to listen to her. I tried to push her away, Eleanor. I really did. But everytime I tried she would always do something that forced me to reach out to her." He answered.
Eleanor looked as though she was listening and so Chuck continued. "Did you know that when I first kissed her, when she was married, she locked herself in that house for three days straight? She didn't answer her phone to anyone, she didn't step a foot outside of the house. And the first time that we slept together when she was married, she ran away to Germany for two weeks on a health spa. And do you know who had to convince her to come out of the house and go and get her from Germany?" He asked.
Eleanor didn't respond but he could tell that she was listening.
"Me" He answered his own question. "It took me two hours to get her to come out of the house and a full day to get her to come back to New York. So don't tell me that I brainwashed your daughter when I seem to be the only one who gives a crap about her" He said through gritted teeth. He couldn't let her see I'm 'lose it' or else she'd hate him forever, but this woman really did test his patience.
"Are you saying that I'm a bad Mother?" She asked annoyed.
"I'm saying that you don't see what's going on behind closed doors. It surprised even me when I found out" He answered then realised. God, he was bad at this part, first Blair's Dad ad now her Mother. Blair would kill him for sure this time.
"Found out what?" Eleanor asked.
"That Louis used to hit me" Blair announced from the top of the staircase, one hand on her tummy, the other holding the rail.
Chuck looked up to see his Fiancé standing there looking annoyed. He wondered just how long she'd been listening. Eleanor was completely silent and so Blair made her way down the staircase in her Jimmy Choos, completely ignored Eleanor and took Chuck's hand.
"Now if you'll excuse us, were going somewhere where our unborn Son is not hated by his own Grandmother" She announced leading Chuck over to the elevator. Harold and Roman were already standing beside it.
"Goodbye, Cyrus!" Blair called as the elevator arrived and she got into it.
"So, how about we all go to La Rotisserie du Beaujolais? I know someone who could really use one of their world renowned poulet roti?" Roman asked when the elevator doors had closed. Chuck had his arm around Blair and she had her head rested on his shoulder. She sighed.
"It's like you read my mind" Blair replied.
"Oh and by the way, Sweetheart. Congratulations on the engagement" Harold congratulated.
"Thank you, Daddy. We were going to tell you all after dinner but it didn't exactly go to plan" Blair replied.
"Well, most things to do with your Mother never do" Harold smiled. Blair, Roman and Chuck all laughed a little.
"What do you say, Chuck? Are you up for a little French cuisine and a few rounds of champagne?" Harold asked. "But of course, no champagne for your Fiancé"
"Of course" Blair smiled and placed her hand on her tummy.
"I'd love to, Mr Waldorf" Chuck agreed.
"Excellent! And its Harold" Harold replied. Chuck smiled.
XOXO
"Oh I can hear the Duck breast a l'orange calling my name!" Roman said excitedly as they all walked towards the limo.
Blair laughed and Chuck held back for a moment. Blair noticed and walked over to him. He dug down into his trouser pocket and pulled out a small black box. He took the ring out and took Blair's hand.
"I thought that we might need it" He slid the ring onto her engagement finger. "Just in case Eleanor thought that we were just lying"
"You really do think of everything, don't you?" She asked with a smile. He smiled back before leaning in for a quick kiss and leading her back over to the limo.
She looked back at her Mother and Cyrus's apartment block and she saw someone dressed all in black, watching them. He was tall and very thin looking and Blair didn't recognise him. When he saw that Blair had noticed him, he turned and ran away. Chuck noticed her looking at something.
"What's caught your attention?" He asked. She looked back at him.
"Nothing, just looking at the apartment that my Mother always paints out that it's incredible" She lied.
"Well, your carriage awaits, my Queen" He smiled opening the door of the limo. She smiled and climbed in before Chuck got in after her and the car pulled away.
XOXO
