Disclaimer: I only owe Darcy.
A New Beginning.
Chuck carried Darcy into the hotel suite bridal style. He had rose petals everywhere.
"Bass" she said "This place looks beautiful"
"Anything for my wife."
"Say that again" she said kissing him.
"Wife" he replied and brought her to the bed. "Now Mrs. Bass we have exactly 5 days to enjoy this honeymoon suite."
"Say that again" she smiled.
"Honey" he said kissing her shoulder. "Moon"
"No" she replied and he moved to kissing her other shoulder.
"Suite"
"Bass" she giggled.
"Oh Mrs. Bass" he said then kissed her and they spent the rest of their honeymoon enjoying each other's company.
4 Months Later…
While Chuck spent the summer investigating his father. Darcy spent it in California, going to her premiere and also learning of another adventure she and Chuck were going to be going on. About a month and a half after their wedding Darcy found out she was pregnant. She was super excited and had flown into see her husband to celebrate the news. He was over the moon. But now it was time to return home and check on their Empire.
She walked into the Spectator wanting to see her best friend.
"Is that actress Darcy Ellis! Hollywood Starlet!" Nate said walking out of his office.
"Good to see you Archibald" she said hugging him.
"How was the summer?"
"Intoxicating" she smiled.
"Well it looks good on you, you're glowing." Nate said "So I guess that means you and Chuck never left the bedroom"
"Nate!" she blushed.
"I know you two so well" Nate replied.
"Speaking of romance. I heard about you and Lola. I'm sorry"
"It happens." He replied as both their phones rang. Nate stepped into his office leaving Darcy outside of it.
"Hey honey" she answered seeing it was Chuck.
"How are you and baby?" Chuck asked.
"We're fine. How are you? I miss you?"
"Hey Darcy! Have you seen Serena!?" Nate shouted.
"No" she said stepping into his office.
"What's going on?" Chuck asked.
"Have you heard from Serena?"
"No" he replied and it was silent.
"Bass?"
"I'll meet you at Lily's"
"Bass"
"I'm already in the city. I was calling to tell you. And I have Amira"
"I'll meet you at Lily's" she replied. "Can't wait to see you"
She arrived at the Van der Woodsen's.
"Darcy!" Lily said hugging her.
"Hey Lily" Darcy smiled.
"How's your father?"
"Good, I saw him when I saw Eric in Prague. All we were missing was Serena and Lola"
"Eric didn't mention seeing you."
"It was brief and sweet" Chuck said walking in.
"Charles. You didn't have to come home"
"I was already in the city. Ellis called and told me about Serena. So I'm here" Chuck said kissing Darcy's cheek.
"It makes me happy to see you two both together" Lily said then spotted a women behind Chuck. "You two are together right?"
"Yes Lily, Bass and I are still very much together." She said "This is Amira. We met her in our travels to Dubai."
"Beautiful city" Bart said entering the conversation. "With beautiful women. I'm Bart Bass"
Bart turned to Chuck.
"Son I trust your summer was relaxing." Bart asked then glanced at Darcy.
"Indeed father, nothing like travel to clear the mind. Right Ellis?" Chuck said turning to his wife.
"Indeed it was" Darcy smiled.
"I showed him all my favorite spots" Amira said.
"Usually Chuck can find a women's favorite spot all by himself" Blair said behind them.
"Good to see you Blair" Darcy said.
"I've got a couple things to clear up at the office." Bart said leaving. Lily following behind him. Blair's friend and Amira also left.
"And then there were three" Darcy said looking at Chuck.
"So how was your summer?" Blair asked.
"Good" Darcy replied. "How was yours?"
"Ellis and I got married" Chuck said.
"Congratulations" Blair replied and the elevator dinged.
"I think Nathaniel is here"
They went through Serena's room finding nothing. Nate got a clue and they headed out of the city. They pulled up to a fancy house.
"Wow" Darcy said glancing at Chuck and he smiled at her.
"Georgina Sparks" Blair said.
"With Humphrey in tow" Chuck responded.
"Hey guys. Nice day for a drive huh?" Dan responded.
"Don't talk to them" Georgina said "Let's go"
"What are you doing with her?" Blair asked.
"The same thing you're doing with him?"
"Um saving my sister" Darcy said.
"No finding Serena and since your following us I need you to follow my lead also" Georgina said.
"Which is what exactly?" Chuck asked.
"Do nothing. We can't get involved. We're going to observe and record."
"Actually Sparks, that's not how it's happening" Darcy said stepping in front of them all "S is my sister so you're gonna follow my lead"
"Whatever we find we won't judge" Blair said and they continued to walk.
"We're still her friends no matter what."
"We're her family"
"Oh aren't you the nicest little trust fund babies in the whole world. But when it comes to what Serena's capable of I think you'll find it's nothing like what you imagined."
"I beg to differ" Darcy replied "One, I'm a recovering alcoholic and two my childhood best friend died of an overdose 4 months after her wedding. I've seen crazy shit."
Chuck grabbed her hand and gave it a light squeeze.
"I would just like to point out that most serial killers are high-functioning members of society who lead a double life. She could be trapped in the basement or buried in the backyard."
"Good idea, Georgina. Why don't you grab a shovel and start digging?" Blair said
"There's gotta be an explanation for all this." Dan said
They got to the door and rang the doorbell. A maid opened the door.
"Can I help you?" she asked
"I believe you can. We're looking for our friend Serena." Chuck said
"Blonde. Legs for days. Effortless charisma that only someone far less secure than I am would find threatening." Blair said getting a look from Darcy. Blair then pointed at her. "Kinda looks like this one here next to me, only taller."
"And I'm the weird one?" Georgina said
"I believe you mean Sabrina?" the maid said and they all saw Serena standing behind her.
"What the hell are you doing here?" she asked them as they followed her into the living room.
"Uh, looking for you." Blair said
"To observe and record." Georgina replied
"No. We're here to help you." Nate said
"And get you home." Chuck said
"And, uh, I don't even know what I'm doing here." Dan said which involved both Blair and Georgina to smack him.
"Can't you see there's a party going on and you're not invited?"
"Crashing parties is one of our favourite pastimes." Chuck said.
"Especially when it involves infiltrating a sophisticated yet deadly cult. Now which one is the charismatic leader" Georgina said.
"Please leave before it's too late." Serena said.
"Sabrina!" A guy yelled.
"Too late." Serena said.
"Sabrina, you didn't tell me you invited friends."
"That is so Sabrina." Blair said.
"Oh, she loves surprises." Nate replied.
"She has so many surprises, you could write a book about them." Dan said.
"Where to end that book is the challenge."
"I hope you don't mind us dropping by." Chuck said sticking out his hand
"Steven" the guy said. "Nice to meet you. And of course not. The more, the merrier on this special day. Please, stay and be a part of it."
"Oh, yes, Steven. I think we will." Blair said
"Why don't we get my friends some drinks then?" Serena said walking out the room with Steven
They walked outside and saw a ceremony. Darcy looked at Chuck worried. He knew what she was thinking.
"This so much worse than we thought" Georgina said.
"Because you're here?" Blair asked.
"It's a nice house, he's a nice guy" Nate replied looking around.
"It's a wedding" Chuck said.
"It definitely is" Darcy said "Excuse me a moment"
Darcy walked down the yard and spotted her sister.
"Serena!" she said walking toward her.
"You are actually the only one I'm happy to see" Serena said hugging her.
"What's going on?"
"What?"
"Are you getting married?"
"It's not mine" Serena said then spotted Darcy's hand "But I see you got married."
Darcy looked down at her hand and smiled.
"Bass and I" she said "I wanted you there sis. I called you many times."
"I'm sorry"
"There is something else I want to tell you…" Darcy started but Steven was walking forward.
"Hello Ladies" he said.
"This is my sister" Serena said.
"Darcy El…Bass." she said still getting used to it.
"Nice to meet you"
"You as well Steven. I'm gonna leave you two."
"Will you talk to the others"
"Of course" She said then hugged her sister. She started walking back toward them when Blair and Georgina began to make a scene which led them inside.
"Will someone please tell me why your friends are ruining David and David's wedding?"
"I know I have some explaining to do but can we talk just the two of us please" Serena said.
"No!" No one goes anywhere" Georgina yelled "No more lies. I have proof your own drugs. I found these in your bathroom"
"Yeah those are vitamins" Steven said.
"Like we're supposed to believe that?"
"Steven makes them. He has a Holistic Health Company"
"Wait. You're Steven Spence. Ellis and I saw you speak at a T.E.D conference last year" Chuck said.
"I told you I was fine"
"Actually no you didn't" Dan said.
"Dan is right. You fell off the face of the earth without a word"
"Isn't that what you wanted? You kicked me out of your house" Serena said then looked at Dan "And you said you have no reason to ever speak to me again."
Serena looked at Nate and Chuck.
"And what, you two were too busy doing whatever it is you do to even send a text. The only person in this room who even bothered to contact me is my sister, and I feel bad that I didn't respond. Sorry Darc"
"I'm happy to know you're alive" Darcy said.
"I spent the summer in the middle east dealing with something related to my father. It's serious" Chuck replied.
"So am I. About turning my life around"
"Wait Blair. You two spent the summer apart?"
"Why would they spend it together?" Darcy asked confused. Chuck shrugged his shoulders confused as well.
"I started my summer on a train being revived by paramedics"
"Mouth to mouth on public transportation. Yeah I'd say that's rock bottom" Georgina said.
"I would too. Which is why I wanted to start fresh. Without any of you" Serena said then looked at Darcy "Except Darcy."
"Darcy?!" Blair shouted.
"I'm her sister" Darcy responded.
"Guys!" Nate yelled and Serena took off. Blair behind her followed by Dan. Chuck grabbed Darcy's hand and kissed it. Nate spotted the ring. "Wait. Did you two get married?"
Darcy nodded.
"That's fantastic!" Nate replied. At least something was going right for two of his friends.
*Dan and Blair*
Dan followed Blair outside.
"I don't believe you!" Dan said.
"Well I'm not gonna let her charge…" Blair started.
"No not Serena. You." Dan said "That you chose Chuck, I don't like but I begrudgingly accept. But then I find out you're not even with him"
"He's with Darcy. Married to her actually" Blair said.
"So I didn't lose you to Chuck?"
"I have to find Serena"
Later that evening they sat in the limo on their way home.
"So that was a fun day" Darcy said laying her head on his lap. He began to run his fingers through her hair "I'm worn out"
"Let's get you home and to bed" he said and she sat up and looked at him. She leaned over and kissed him.
"I'm so happy were both in the city"
"Me too" he said.
They got back to the Empire and walked in. Amira sat on their couch.
"Amira?" Chuck said.
"Hey" Darcy said.
"It's late. I thought you would be in your own suite?"
Amira nodded her head toward the coffee table and they spotted a suitcase. Chuck walked over and opened it revealing a ton of money.
"Your father gave it to me to keep quiet"
"Wow, what do you know?" Darcy asked taking a seat.
"I swear I don't but now I want to"
"I'm very intrigued myself."
"Me too" Chuck said.
"I should let you two have some alone time" Amira said "We can discuss this in the morning. I know it's been months since you last saw your wife"
"Goodnight Amira" Darcy said and she left. Darcy stood up and Chuck walked closer to her and kissed her. He picked her up and carried her to the bedroom. "I could get use to this"
"Same" he said kissing her. Both so happy to finally be in the same city. This was a great start to a new beginning.
