"No disrespect was intended, mom. Chuck's old enough to make his own decisions." Serena told her mother, sitting back in her chair.
"But his decision affects the entire family! Do you know how many newspapers will be having a field day over this?"
"I'm guessing six?" Chuck mused.
Lily couldn't believe how calm everybody was. Did they NOT understand how stupid it is?
"You're not even out of high school yet, Chuck. You know the press will say that you're both getting married because she's pregnant."
"But I'm not. If I don't have a baby belly, then any speculation can be blown out of the water. Honestly, Lily, it's fine." Blair said lightly. Lily glared at her future...step-daughter-in-law?
"Fine. Make your own mistakes. I'm going shopping." she excused herself from the table. Bart chuckled in earnest.
"Women are cute when they're mad." he told his children before leaving to catch up to his wife. Surely, some apology sex would cure their relationship.
"Jesus." Eric muttered. "Next time you decide to stay over Blair, please consider that some of us are trying to sleep." he said before leaving the table. Ever since his suicide attempt, he hadn't been social like he used to. He enjoyed spending time with Chuck and Serena, but his old 'friends' wouldn't give him the time of day anymore.
"I believe we having a shopping date, S." Blair said once the two girls were back in Serena's room. She was looking through her closet for clothes for both of the girls.
"Well, I need a shower before we leave. Have a nice hour with your fiance`." she giggled. "No sex, please. Especially not on my bed. Or in my closet. Or...anywhere near me." she made a disgruntled face before leaving her friend. Chuck stood in the doorway, watching his step-sister leave.
"Well, I for one don't intend on listening to Serena's orders." he whispered into Blair's ear. Blair gave an involuntary shiver and smile as his hand ran down her arm.
"Chuck.." she murmured happily.
"The one and only." he drawled. God, he was irresistible.
The two initiated a makeout session on Serena's large cannopy bed, and did not break their hold until a knock was heard on the door frame. Chuck groaned and broke the kiss, looking him, ready to tell off whichever servant had interrupted them.
"Father?"
"I can't find Lily. I'm going to go drive around and look for her. I'll call when I find her. Behave, Charles." he warned, giving him a knowing look.
"Of course." he said, hiding the bulge in his pants from his father. Fucking old people always have to ruin his fun.
"Where were we?" he asked, kissing her jaw line again.
"Oh no, you two. Get off the fucking bed." Serena's voice commanded. Jesus Christ. What was up with everybody in this family being a cock block? Chuck made a sour face before walking out of the room. Little Chuck didn't like being denied his favorite toy.
"Alright, spill." Serena said while sitting in Blair's dressing rooms, watching her try on multiple dresses.
"Well, we were dancing to a slow song outside on the gazebo- I'm sure if you saw the video, you know what I'm talking about," she said, examining her petite figure in the long mirror, "and I said yes...and then I went to your house..." she trailed off, blushing.
"So you're happy?"
"God, yes. It took him long enough." she scoffed, discarding the dress. "What about your night? Zip me."
"My night...was magical." she sighed happily.
"Spill." Blair rolled her eyes. Serena was such a romantic.
"Dan and I went to go grab coffee and take a walk on the boardwalk, and we ended up kissing. I went back to his house and we kind of just talked in his bed." she finished lamely.
"Just talked?" Blair asked, somewhat skeptical.
"Well...a little physicality might have been involved."
"You had sex with him, didn't you!" she accused.
"You're one to talk, B." Serena blushed, crossing her arms. "Besides, it wasn't sex...we made love."
Blair nearly doubled over laughing. All of Serena's little toys in the past had been just that- toys. Good for a one night stand, two if they weren't clingy. It was just sex. But 'making love' with one of the poorest boys in town? Ugh!
"I can't believe you and Humpty Dumpty boned." Blair snorted, putting her original clothes back on. Serena scrunched up her face and stuck her tongue out. Her feelings for Dan were very powerful. They walked out of the dressing room, only to run into Chuck.
"Chuck!" the girls chorused, honestly surprised.
"Father was in an accident. We're going to see him." he said in a tight voice. Blair waved the sales woman holding her dresses away and went to run after her boyfriend, with Serena at her side.
"What do you mean, an accident?" Serena asked whenever they had shut the door of the limo.
"I don't know, okay?" he snapped. "Lily called because she couldn't get a hold of you." Serena looked down at her feet. She had put her phone on silent because she didn't want to hear Aaron's phone calls.
"What about Eric? Shouldn't he be with us?" Blair asked. She had a soft spot for Serena's younger brother.
"He's probably with mom." she said softly, chewing on her lower lip. Blair looked at the two step-siblings helplessly. How are you supposed to act when you find out news like this? She sat by Chuck and tried to hold his hand.
"Don't even touch me, Blair." he whispered, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Don't fight with me, Chuck." she pleaded softly, taking his hand again. It stayed limp in hers for a few moments before squeezing it. Blair offered her free one to Serena- even though Serena may not have liked Bart, she didn't wish ill luck upon him. He made her mother happy, and that was what really mattered.
They rushed up to Bart's room to check on him, and Lily and Eric. Bart lay in the bed hooked up to a plethora of machines, bandages on his head. Lily sat in the corner, silently crying as Eric rubbed her shoulder.
"Mom, wh-"
"He was driving to find me. The police said that some drunk fucker hit him." she whispered. Lily was never one to swear- she thought it was improper for a lady of her social status- but neither of the children felt the need to comment on her language.
"Who?" Chuck spat, his features twisted.
"I'm not sure. They didn't give me a name yet. They should come back any minute now..." Lily trailed off, looking at her husband. Chuck's hands were clenched into fists. Serena's phone buzzed in her purse.
"Dan says that he and Rufus are coming by to check on you and Bart..." she told her mother. Chuck glared at Lily before walking out of the room, Blair not far behind him.
"Eric, let's all go get some coffee. You want anything mom?" Lily shook her head, which was now lying in her hands. Chuck knew about her and Rufus. He knew...
"What the hell was that about, Chuck?" Blair asked, still hurrying to catch up with him.
"She's been cheating on my father with that man. He has the nerve to come up to my father's hospital room to comfort his wife!" he seethed, impatiently pressing the elevator buttons.
"Are..are you sure?" she asked, mouth open. Lily was a woman of class. Surely, she wouldn't settle for somebody so...so...Oh God. Serena must take after her mother.
"Father hired a private investigator to find out about Lily's past. He found out about the affair and left the information in a Manila envelope on my father's desk. I intercepted it, curious, and I had to hide it. I couldn't let father's personal life interfere with his business life. Stupid whore." he spat. Serena and Eric had finally caught up to them before the elevator door closed.
"Let's all get a cup of coffee and calm down, you especially, Chuck."
"I don't feel like calming down, sis." he sneered. Blair looked at the three siblings in the elevator sympathetically.
"Dan! Hey, come join us." Serena called out, walking over to her lover, for lack of a better word for him. Chuck watched with Malice as Rufus Humphrey made his way up to his father's room. Dan gave an awkward wave to the three other teens, two of which made an effort to return the wave. Chuck remained unmoving.
"Actually, Blair and I will be returning." Chuck said, grabbing Blair's wrist. He roughly dragged her towards the elevator, not in the mood to socialize.
"Chuck, stop." she pleaded once they were alone in the elevator.
"Stop what, Blair?" he spat. Blair was kind of scared. Nobody, and I repeat nobody has ever seen Chuck Bass like this. Instead of being concerned, he was so...angry.
When they arrived to the hospital room, Rufus and Lily were at the end of that wing, talking by the window. Blair restrained Chuck from walking over and punching Rufus.
"Let's stay with your dad." she tried to sooth him. They sat in the room in silence for ten minutes before a police officer walked in.
"Who are you?" they asked.
"Chuck Bass. This is my fiance` Blair. What can you tell us about who did this?" Chuck asked in a flat voice. Strictly business.
"The kid's name is Aaron Rose. Late teens or early twenties, we're not sure. He had a BAC of .23. He slammed into your father's side of the limo head-on. When we arrived, there was a shard of glass embedded into his right temple. He's suffered from blood damage and brain damage, but the doctors aren't sure how severe either are."
"Aaron Rose?" Blair asked, slightly horrified. She dug out her cell phone and texted Serena.
GET UP HERE NOW OMG.
-B
She checked her inbox, because she had ignored the previous texts.

Chuck was silent until the police left the room to go find Lily. Blair rubbed his shoulders to try and calm him down, at least until Serena got up here.
Kind of busy B! Aaron is n hospital 2.
-S
Blair groaned. Serena could be so stupid.
This iz imprtnt!!!!
-B
K fine im on my way.
-S
"Apparently Aaron is in the hospital too." Blair said quietly. Chuck said nothing. He took his phone out and dialed some number. You could never tell with Chuck- he could be calling an assassin for all she knew.
"Gary. It's Chuck Bass. I require you, yet again." he looked blankly ahead as he spoke. Blair could hear a faint murmuring coming from the phone.
"I'll take care of you, like last time. You enjoyed that little bonus, didn't you?"
More murmuring.
"Yes, yes. Aaron Rose. As soon as possible. Don't finish." he said before sliding his phone shut. Blair raised an eyebrow.
"Don't worry about it." he spoke. He would have told her, but he knew how Blair was about the whole 'hiring a trained killer' thing. Serena walked in with her arms crossed.
"What's so important, B?"
"Your little boyfriend was the one that put Father in the hospital." Chuck spat at her. Serena looked completely confused.
"Dan?"
"No, Aaron. Why else could he possibly be in the hospital, S?" Blair told her friend.
"I...I swear, I didn't know. Oh God." Serena whispered, starting to cry. She felt like shit. She was going to dump Aaron today and try to rekindle her relationship with Dan, but what kind of girl breaks up with her boyfriend who's in the hospital? Then again, who could still continue dating the man who hurt your step-father?.....
Fuck.
