I really put their names on this one. So yeah this is my first not oneshot for Gossip Girl. It's another one of those Chuck-left-Blair-and-Dan-comforted-her-now-it's-fucked-up-type of story. Please enjoy.
He saw her leave.
Her chocolate curls swaying left to right as she ran for the door.
Without thinking, he followed (he was not supposed to follow), he even called her name (He was not supposed to call her name).
She tried to ignore it, not wanting him to see her like this, weak and broken, but she couldn't help but turn around at the sound of his voice.
"What?" she said, trying to mask the hurt with the usual mockery in her voice, but it wasn't enough to slip pass him.
"You're broken" He said it so bluntly. The way he looked straight into her eyes and the way he said the truth so easily made her freeze on her toes.
"I'm not a toy that breaks, Humphrey" she replied sarcastically after getting a hold of herself. But she couldn't hide the tone that made it obvious to Dan that she clearly understands what he meant.
"You know what I mean…" he paused not really sure he was the best person to be telling this to Blair Waldorf. "You're not you"
She couldn't really say anything. The truth… the truth stabbed her like a knife at the back. She already knew, she's been hiding it… but Dan Humphrey saw right through it.
And she thought Chuck was the only person to. But he left her, hence, turning her into this.
"You're hurting and I know that, no matter how much you try to hide it" he was heading to her direction now. "And Chuck has something to do with this, right?"
Truths kept spilling from his mouth and by now Blair couldn't really do anything but fall down to the floor and start sobbing. "I know, okay!" more tears poured down her eyes "I'm broken, I 'm a mess and I lost myself"
He sat down beside her and put his arm around her shoulder. "Chuck's an idiot."
"What? You're going to start comforting me after making me cry." There was a hint of humor in her voice making Dan's chest feel a little lighter.
"You know that I didn't want to make you cry, I just wanted to hear it from you." He squeezed her playfully causing the first smile in Blair's face since Chuck. "Yeah. And Chuck is an idiot"
"I've already heard that form everyone. He's always been an idiot."
"I know. But this time, he proved to the world that he can actually be more of an idiot than he already is"
"Why is that?" He can hear the smile on her voice. She knew what he was going to say, and even though it's cliché, she still wanted to hear it.
"Because he left you" He replied, not failing her expectations.
They just sat on the floor in silence, his arm still around her shoulder. The awkwardness of the silence was catching up to them, so Blair decided on saying something.
"And… What's up with you and comforting me in hallways?" Blair said. She obviously felt better but there is still hurt in her voice.
He chuckled a little bit. "Why? You want me to stop?"
Blair blushed a little bit because no, she doesn't want him to stop, and she actually doesn't hate Dan at times like this because yes, she appreciates Dan Humphrey's help. Of course she would never say that to him. "It's just that I never expected you to care…I mean, after all the things I've done to you… you still help me."
Now he was blushing. He doesn't really hate her, he actually can't bring himself to hate her, well, actually he can't bring himself to hate anyone. But still, he couldn't understand why he was helping her, why he followed her. This was already the second time and he still doesn't understand.
He tried to change the direction of the conversation. "Okay. Now let me help you up and get you a cab ride home." He stood up and offered his hand to her.
She took the hand into hers and pulled herself up. He waited for her to let go of his hand but she didn't. She started walking towards the exit, tugging him to follow.
When she had to let go of his hand and go in the cab, she placed a soft kiss on his lips.
At that moment, his head was filled with questions that needed to be answered. What the hell? Is that Blair? Why did she do that? Is this real? Am I dreaming? Am I dead?
But when he saw the way she looked at him through the window of the cab as it starts to drive away he knew.
He knew that what happened that night should never escape from his lips.
I'm sorry it's short and even though I'm not good with updating... I promise to update as soon as possible. Thank you for reading, please review!!!
