"Are you sure this was a good idea?" She asked him, turning her head and looking at him in the darkness.
He sighed, rolling over and pulling her against him. "Yes."
Silence.
"Do you want to call them?" he asked into her hair.
"No… I mean. There's no need to bother Serena and Dan." She said, holding on to his arm and absently running her fingers over his hairs.
"Exactly." He chided. "Go to sleep, I need you energized for our routine of morning sex."
She rolled her eyes and closed them, slowly drifting to sleep.
"But if you want to call them then I'm fine with bothering my sister and her husband." He finally said, startling her a bit.
A slow smile formed in her face. "You've been wanting to call them all night."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes."
"No, I haven't."
"Yes, you have!" she pulled away, turned on the light and smirked at him.
"I wasn't the one asking, you know," he snapped, his arm over his eyes.
She reached out and pulled his arm down, draping herself over his chest. He sighed and looked down at her.
"Ok, I'll admit. I was a little concerned but you were outright worried."
She smiled at him. "So… do you want to call them?"
"Aren't we like supposed to be happy it's our anniversary and want to get away from the kids for a few days?" he asked, tracing the lines in her face.
"In theory," she nodded.
"Fine. Call them."
"I'm sure they're fine." She reached for her cell and dialed Serena.
"Hey Blair!" Serena's voice was chipper as always. "We just finished watching a movie!"
"Oh, awesome!" Blair tried to sound nonchalant.
"Isn't it like late over there?" Serena asked.
"Yeah… it's 3 am in Monaco," Blair admitted.
"Is something wrong?" she asked.
"We just wanted to check up, make sure you were ok." She said, eyeing Chuck who had now sat up and was listening to the conversation.
"Of course we're fine!" Serena smiled. "Holly is still at her friend's house and the boys are chasing the maid with water guns. Except for Sebastian… he's in the computer."
"So they're fine." Blair stated, giving Chuck an 'I told you so' look which made him narrow his eyes.
"Of course, B!" Serena laughed.
"Ok. We'll talk to you later." She smiled and hung up.
Chuck's eyebrow was raised.
"They're fine." She smiled, pulling him down. "Now you don't have to worry."
