A/N: Here's you guys a chapter. Sorry for the long delay. I was away from a computer for a week so I was unable to post a chapter so to make up for it. After this chapter I will post another soon after.

Disclaimer: I own Darcy, that is all.

Traffic

Darcy put the final touches on her makeup. She was getting ready to have breakfast with her father and her uncle. She tried to get Serena to come along but with the whole sex tape being released at Cotillion Serena wasn't really up for it. She walked out into the living room and spotted her husband and Monkey on the couch. Nate standing behind them.

"He won't. But someone else might. Bruce Caplan dropped the envelope off to Bart that morning"

"Business talk in the morning. My fave" Darcy said then kissed Chuck.

"Wait, Bruce Caplan, the Bass Business Manager?" Nate asked "He won't spill any of Bart's secrets to you"

"But he might someone else" Darcy replied.

"Like Who?"

Chuck turned to Nate smiling.

"Perhaps the head of the Spectator"

"Me?"

"Ask for 'Business Management' advice" Darcy said using air quotes.

"You are an evil genius" Nate said kissing her cheek and leaving the room.

"So now that we clarified you're a beautiful evil genius, what are you up to today?" Chuck said standing up and kissing her.

"Breakfast with Dad and Keith, wanna join?"

"I would normally love too but I need to do some business myself. Are you telling William about our name choice"

"Definitely" she replied "But I'm not sure I like Elizabeth as a middle name."

"We will think of something amazing to go with Oliva"

"How did I get so lucky?" she asked kissing him. "I should go"

"I love you"

"And I you" She said leaving.

She got to the restaurant they agreed to meet at and spotted her Dad and Uncle already sitting.

"She made it" her dad said standing up and greeting her "I went ahead and order some pancakes for you"

"No Chuck?" her uncle asked.

"He is dealing with some business"

"Empire?"

"Bass" she replied sipping the water in front of her "As in Bart Bass, my evil father-in-law"

"That's right. You're a married women now" Keith said "I always thought you two were meant to be"

"Keith" she replied.

"What?" he replied "Was is Prom night that you told me what was it. Oh right 'I'll never date Chuck"

"I was 18 and obsessed with Nate. Things changed. I changed."

"So any baby news?" her dad asked.

"Marriage and a baby, you are having quite the year" Keith said.

"Yes, Bass and I are very happy. In both departments."

"I'm happy for them" her dad said. "So news?"

"Yes" she smiled. "We were thinking Oliva as a name"

"A girl?" her dad.

"Yeah, you're okay with the name right?"

"She would be so honoured to share her name with her granddaughter." Her father said and she looked over to see her uncle nodding as well.

They finished breakfast and she headed home. She walked into Chuck and Nate standing in the living room with a cell phone.

"What am I missing?" she asked.

"We stole, well Nathaniel stole Bruce's phone"

"Need help cracking it?"

"No we got that, we found Traffic in his Calendar"

"Like he was stuck in traffic?" she asked.

"Oil trafficking perhaps" Chuck said and she sat down next to him.

"Like a nuclear bomb in a briefcase"

"You watch too many movies" Chuck said still looking at the phone.

"I blame Darcy for that"

"I like movies" she replied " I actually got Bass to watch a few with me once as well"

"Like what?" Nate asked.

"Traffic" Chuck said

Darcy looked at him and smiled.

"Oh my god, yes that makes perfect sense" Darcy said.

"Okay will you two please clue me"

"In the movie they stored there illegal information in the back of the paintings" Darcy said.

"You think that's it?"

"I'm no Art guru but I do know a women who owns a lot of it"

"Lily"

"I'm banned from the building" Chuck said.

"And well after the last conversation I had with Lily I highly doubt she will be happy to see me" Darcy replied.

"So that leaves me"

"Thank you" Darcy said.

Nate left. Darcy leaned into Chuck and he pulled her close.

"How was breakfast with Keith and William?" he asked and she turned to him.

"Good, I made my uncle cry. The name"

"What did they say?"

"That my mom would be honoured to share her name with her granddaughter. Now if we could just think of a middle name"

"We will. I promise" Chuck said kissing her. She spotted their prom photo across the room and smiled. "What?"

"Something Keith reminded me of"

"Oh?"

"I told him once that you and I would never be together and now look at us"

"Fate is a funny thing" he replied as his phone rang. He looked at it "It's Nate"

"Speaker" she said.

"I can't find anything" Nate said.

"Nothing?" Darcy asked.

"Not a thing"

"It could be subtle, tape on the backing or a rip in the seam" Chuck replied.

"There's nothing and the back of artwork is really boring" Nate said.

"Hints why it's the back of it" Darcy replied.

"Har har Darc" Nate replied "Someone is coming"

They heard Serena talking and Nate responding which turned to arguing. Chuck looked at Darcy.

"I'm gonna go check on her" Darcy said kissing him "Keep me updated"

"Love you"

"You too" she replied grabbing her bag and heading out. She grabbed a cab and headed to the Van der Woodsen's. She was trying to avoid Lily but she would just have to suck it up to talk to Serena. She got there and headed to the elevator and kept pushing the button but it wasn't working. She looked at the stairs and sighed. "I'm sorry baby but we gotta do this"

She climbed the stairs and got to the penthouse. She got inside noticing a big blank spot on the wall.

"Well I guess that would be where it is" she said to her bump "Hopefully Uncle Nate and Daddy figured that out."

She heard the elevator open and turned to see Serena and Dan.

"Darc?" Serena said "What are you doing here? Did you take the stairs"

"Yeah, baby isn't happy with me" she replied "I was on the phone with Nate earlier and I heard the fight. I was worried about you"

"I know that you all disapprove of Dan, but Darc I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself"

"I know" Darcy replied then looked at Dan "I haven't been able to tell you Thank You"

"For what?" Dan asked.

"My book. What you wrote about me. It was beautiful"

"I didn't know you two were writing a book together?" Serena said "I actually thought you two hated each other.

"More like didn't understand." Darcy replied. "My friend Brooke actually wrote it and Dan pieced it together. I wanted somebody that was gonna be brutally honest. And even though I technically asked him before Inside came out I knew I made the right choice after I read it"

"I'll actually let you two talk" Dan said

"I should actually get going. Bass is probably at home waiting for me. But before I go I just wanna say this. Serena you are my sister and all I want for you is to be happy and if Dan does that, or whoever you choose, I support it."

"I love you sis" Serena said hugging her "and my niece"

"And we you" she replied "Now I should go"

She left and got back at home. She walked into the living room to see the missing painting from the Van der Woodsen's.

"Did we…?" she asked and Chuck shook his head no. She walked over to him and put her arms around his neck and leaned in and kissed him. "I'm sorry Honey"

"But you may have been right about working with Ivy"

"If it makes you feel better I was hoping I was gonna be wrong" she replied and he kissed her. They sat on the couch and she looked at the painting.

"What's on your mind beautiful?"

"This can't be the end. We can still get him Bass. I promise" she said looking at him. He pulled her into his lap and kissed her.

"Thank you for always being here, always fighting with me for our future"

"I'd go to the end of the world with you Charles Bass" she replied "Every single time"
