The light from the sun made it impossible for Blair to continue sleeping. Where was her eye mask when she needed it? Shifting in her bed she found her arms and legs tangled with a warm lump. She looked over her shoulder and found Chuck sleeping peacefully next to her. Suddenly the memory of last night came rushing back to her and she felt herself flush at the thought of the passionate evening they'd spent together. She smiled to herself and decided to lay next to him just a little while longer. She knew that once they awoke, they would have to deal with their issues. She figured that could wait a little while longer. Shifting closer to him, she planted a kiss on his mouth and snuggled close, closing her eyes and letting herself drift off to sleep once again.

Chuck felt Blair's kiss on his lips and squeezed her just a little bit harder. He was afraid that she would wake and kick him out of her bed, but thankfully she'd decided to come closer and spend a few more blessed moments in his arms. He couldn't have been happier.

The familiar chiming of her cell phone roused Blair from her dreams and forced her to remove herself from under Chuck's weight. Groaning in frustration, she reached over to her table and picked up her phone.

"Hello...?" Blair asked groggily into the phone.

"Blair? Where in the world are you? You're suppose to be here meeting me for lunch. I've been waiting for over an hour!" Serena yelled into the phone. Blair cringed at the high pitched voice disturbing her slumberous mind.

"Serena, I'm so sorry. I was asleep." Blair said as she began to get out of bed.

"Asleep? Blair it's 1 o'clock in the afternoon. What happened?" Serena asked. She was a little bit annoyed to say the least.

"Hmpf. I was tired. Can't a girl be tired?" Blair said as she looked back at Chuck and saw that he was starting to wake up as well.

"Blair, why are you whispering?" Serena asked dubiously. "Oh my God! There's a man with you...isn't there?" Serena asked joyfully.

"Shh, Serena I don't want to be deaf by the time we hang up," Blair complained. Serena could be too much for her to handle sometimes.

"There is a guy! Who is he?...Wait a minute. Did you have sex with Chuck?" Serena exploded again.

"Serena, shut up!" Blair shouted, waking Chuck suddenly. Great.

"Listen, S, I have to go. Thanks to you someone's awake, and now I have stuff to deal with. I'll call you later."

"You better. I want all the juicy details," Serena said a little bit too excitedly.

Traitor. Blair thought. Wasn't Serena the one opposed to her getting back together with Chuck?

She turned around and found Chuck sitting up in bed grinning stupidly.

"Sorry to wake you. It was Serena." Blair explained, and for the first time noticed that she was half undressed. Blushing from the top of her chest to her hairline, she made a grab for the sheet in order to cover herself up.

"Oh, not a problem. I like waking up to this view," Chuck said as he pulled the sheets away from Blair just before she could grab it.

Blair's color reddened even further. If she stood there talking, she'd be standing there half naked. If she got into bed, well...she knew where that would lead. So she decided for her third option.

"Do you want to grab lunch? I'll go get ready. We can go eat as soon as I'm done." with that she turned quickly on heels without giving him a chance to respond. She went into her bathroom and triple checked that she'd locked the door before hopping in the shower. She couldn't trust him. Hell, she couldn't trust herself.

"So are we just going to stay quiet and pretend there's nothing to talk about?" Chuck asked as the silence between them spanned for over 15 minutes. They were sitting at Cosi's grabbing a quick bite to eat since Blair had called Serena and told her that they'd be over for dinner. Serena had laughed and teased Blair about already considering herself and Chuck a "they" and Blair had unceremoniously hung up the phone.

"Well, I was leaving it up to you to start I suppose. I really don't know what to say to you, Chuck." Blair avoided looking at Chuck directly for too long.

"Ok. Then I'll start. Last night was amazing. You are amazing. I love you. I want to be with you. And from the looks of things, so do you. So what do I have to do to prove to you that we can work this out?" Chuck said. He wasn't in the mood to beat around the bush. There was no point in playing games anymore. He loved her and he didn't want to waste another minute being without her.

"I don't know, Chuck. I don't know what to do to work things out between us. After everything that you've done-"

"That's in the past."

"Yeah, but how do I know that it's in the past for good? I don't even know who you are anymore. It's been so long since I've seen you."

"Blair, do you love me?"

"It's not that simple." Blair said, avoiding the question.

"Yes it is. Do you love me?"

"I...Chuck, it's not-"

"Yes or no, Blair? Don't make this harder than what it needs to be. Do you love me? Do you want to be with me?"

"Yes," she whispered so softly he didn't hear her.

"What?"

"Yes," she said a little louder this time.

Chuck smile could compete with a Cherise cat. He jumped out of his seat and kissed her right in the middle of the restaurant. "Check please!"

The ride to the Van der Bass' was quite the ride indeed.
