Sex,love and Frankenstein
Blair was worried, after leaving the hospital she tried calling Damon but still no response. The shooting and this mysterious woman of Damon's past got her worried. All her past insecurities of being second to everyone else, were all coming back to haunt her.
Her mother always considered Serena the perfect daughter. Her idiotic 12 year oldself desperate for attention and afraid of rejection by Damon, chose to go after Nate. She kept telling herself she loved him but a blue eyed dark raven haired boy was always on her mind. Then she lost Nate thanks to Serena.
Then one day she got courage to end things with Nate after finding him unwilling to give her the family ring. She went straight to Damon's place but outside his building she saw him kissing another girl and her heart broke to pieces. After that she decided to go to Victrolla and lost herself into the darkness that Chuck offered her.
She decided to pursuit Chuck, they were both sick and twisted and at least she wouldn't be lonely in Hell. They had both hit rock bottom …
Then one day, after the prom at Constance she finds Damon in her room. He tells her he loves her and leaves for two years. Maybe he will leave again, she couldn't stand it.
For the first time she finally got the guy she wanted to want her back, in a way that brought her pure happiness but also fear. She knew how she felt when Chuck broke her heart, but her feelings for Damon were different. For the first time she knew if it was needed she would give her life for him. There was no world for her if there was no Damon. She finally felt her phone buzz with a text from gossip girl and read what it said:
Dear beloved
Blue Eyes is not missing no longer
He clearly wanted to take a view from above
One thing about being on top of the world
It gives you a long, long way to fall
Xoxo
Gossip Girl
Damon was on top of the roof off the penthouse with his fit on the edge and a drink in his hand just looking down at the city. He had left Katherine after several drinks , he grabbed her by the neck ordered her to leave him alone. He would have to deal with her later.
He didn't know what he was supposed to think or what he was supposed to do. He knew what people thought. He knew people thought his dad and him had something to do with what happened at The Empire but he wasn't apart of it.
Damon took in a breath as he closed his eyes. If Chuck could somehow prove it he would lose everything. His father, the company, probably even Blair no matter what she said to him. He was stupid to think he could come back here and everything would be easy.
But he wasn't a teenager anymore. Maybe having everything he wanted then wasn't supposed to happen now. It almost made him choke up at the thought.
I thought I'd find you here." she said as she approached him. "Talk to me. Please." she begged.
"I bet some parents everywhere are looking at their children and telling them bedtime stories. Laying in their beds and waiting for the day to come."
"Damon…Please…I need you to get down. That gossip girl post was a lie.."
"A lie…It may be but it was showing me the person I am and will become. Me and my father are more alike than you think"
"You are wrong Damon. Are you just going to give up?"
" I can't turn into my father Blair. I want to take comfort on you but I am afraid to be the one to hurt you. I am weak Blair, it is like a demon inside me that needs killing"
"You're weak? Everybody is, everybody fails. Your father may be responsible for bad things and hurt. But even though he does it he needs you and that means you can hurt him. Damon you have the power to do real good to make amends. But if you die know all you ever were was a coward!
"Leave! Do you think this is simple? Do you think there is an easy answer? You can never understand what I have been through."
"What about me? I love you so much.. You left for two years, I tried to make you go away from my mind but it didn't stop. I hate it that it is so hard and that it hurts so much. I know you may have a past with things you're not happy about but I lie, I cheat and scheme. I wish that I could help you end this misery but death is not the answer"
"Please Blair let be strong for once"
"Strong is fighting… It is hard and painful and it is every single day. It's all we have to do but we can do it together"
"I know you'll leave me," Damon said softly looking over at her before looking back out to the city. "Sooner or later you will. I know what everyone is thinking too and they're probably right. How can I expect you to stay after that? Who cares if I die?"
"I do.. Don't you understand, I will always be here. I don't want you going anywhere. I couldn't bear it. So whatever you want to do to yourself, please don't do that to me .Please…
She takes her hand hoping he would hold it and leave the edge of the roof.
He doesn't answer but she continues talking. "I'm used to complicated, Damon. I'm not going to leave you because of this. I know you had nothing to do with it." she told him. "It doesn't matter what other people say, not to me. You matter to me."
"You are going to hate me Blair… I have done things…."
"We've all done things we aren't proud of. Only a narcissist could love a masochist"
"That's because you haven't seen the real me yet."
"Please Damon… If you are too much of a coward and not the man I know you to be them go and die. If I can't convince you to stay in this world with me I don't know who else can"
He finally takes her hand and they embrance for what felt for a long time but neither wanted it to be over.
"Get out of this city with me," Damon said softly looking at her. "I'm not talking forever I'm just…talking a day - a weekend. I just need to feel like I can breathe again."
Blair smiled at him while her hand went to cup his face. "I would run away with you anytime, anywhere." she said, pulling him into a hug. "When do we leave?"
Damon let out a sigh of relief as his arms moved around her. He needed someone through this - he needed Blair.
"Tomorrow," he replied. "We can go anywhere. See anything. I don't care as long as it's with you."
Blair nodded as she pulled back from him. "How about Tuscany?" she asked. "We could go to my father's villa… and take long walks through the vineyards and maybe we could even get a jump start on your career in music, you could write songs while I read by your side. Plus it would be a different scene compared to New York." she said, smiling at him. "What do you think?"
Damon smiled while nodding, "LA…Vegas…out of the country it doesn't matter. As long as we're out of this city together I don't care where we go. As long as you bring some nice stocking and lingerie I am up to it.
Damon was teasing with that but then again seeing Blair in her birthday suit and touching her milky skin would be what he calls pure bliss.
"Hey," she said, slapping him lightly on the arm "Don't think I don't know what's going on in that mind of yours." She smiled as she looked at him, excited. "Well, surprise me. I'll pack everything I think I'll need and if I miss anything, we can always go shopping when we get there
"You do like to shop," Damon replied looking at her as he tilted his head to the side. "Although the last time we were in a clothing store together I don't think any shopping happened."
Blair felt her face flushing. "Yeah, that was the best 'shopping' trip of my entire life." she said, smiling at him. "I think from now on, I'm going to drag you to all my shopping sprees. Shopping is way more fun when you're with me anyway." she grinned.
"Oh of course," Damon said with a teasing grin. "We will definitely put 'shopping' down on the list of things we should do on our mini vacation
"As long as I get my 'shopping', I'll put on something nice for you." she said giggling as she pulled him into a kiss. "
"I am sorry" Damon said with a sigh. "I just didn't know if you would want to see me after what happened. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't."
"You are crazy if you think that I would ever not want to see you and I forgive you." she said. "The whole time, I was so worried where you were. I was so afraid that you would do something stupid and leave just like the last time you went away."
"I didn't mean to worry you," Damon replied as he took Blair's hand lacing their fingers together. "I just needed a moment to myself. If my father did do this it changes everything. I can try not to care but he's still my family."
"I know, I know." she said softly. "I understand that… but I want you to know that you have me too, okay?" she looked up to him. "You'll always have me."
I know," Damon replied as he pulled her a little closer to him. "You're amazing Blair and I hope you never forget that."
"I know I am. So are you, and I hope you never forget that too. I like you just the way you are" she said, smiling to herself. She knew she was, but it was different when it came from someone else… especially when it came from him. Blair wrapped her arms around his waist as she gazed at him. "I'm here to listen if you want to talk." she offered. "Only if you want to." she repeated, so that he knew there was no pressure.
"I know," Damon said giving her a small smile as he slipped his arms around her before sighing. "It's just hard to wrap my mind around all of this you know? Like if my father did do what he did then…why? Why would Bass Industries be worth that much to him? Or hurting Chuck for that matter?"
I'm sure he has his reasons." she said. She really had no answers to all of his questions either. There was only one person who could do give him that but she knew that getting him to ask his father would be dangerous. She moved closer to him and laid her head on his chest, her hands pulling him tight. "We could look into it, do a little investigation of our own if you want.. as long as we keep it on the down low and we don't get caught.. so that I'm sure you're safe."
"You and me investigating…scheming…plotting…who knew?" Damon grinned a little as his fingers played with the ends of Blair's hair. "We can do that. As long as we don't get caught we won't get in any trouble. I don't want to bring you down in this."
Blair grinned back at him. "It's about time you entered my world. I can be bitchy enough for both of us. We won't get caught. And if we do, I would gladly go down with you." she said. "But I'm sure we won't."
Damon grinned as he moved an arm around her shoulders to lead her back inside the penthouse, "We'll go down together then? Sounds hot."
"Yeah?" she grinned back devilishly, pulling on his shirt and kissing him as she opened the door to his room.
"Mhm…" He mumbled against her lips as he kissed back. One of his hands came up to rest on the side of her neck as he stepped back into the room with Blair using his foot to nudge the door closed.
Note: Timeline , Damon left at the end of 2x24 and returned sometime between 4x09/4x10
