AN: Gasp the final chapter! Who would have ever saw that coming? This is the first story I've ever finished and I'm proud. I promised you'd never see the ending coming, and I guarantee you'll all hate me once you read but enjoy none the less! & Keep a look out for the sequel.


It was almost fitting that it rained the day Chuck Bass was laid out to rest, he'd never achieved a great accomplishment, but at the same time had given the people around him so much, even if it wasn't always of the best intentions. He'd sacrificed himself so that the one that he loved, could live and go on into life, a part of him always beating inside of her, he wasn't a hero you'd read in the comics or see in the movies, he was a silent hero, the kind that people truly remembered.

And when it rains,
On this side of town it touches, everything.
Just say it again and mean it.
We don't miss a thing.
You made yourself a bed
At the bottom of the blackest hole (blackest hole)
And convinced yourself that
It's not the reason you don't see the sun anymore

She sat silently in the corner of the funeral parlor, as people crowded in left and right. She'd only been out of the hospital for a few days, and was still incredibly weak but had gone against everyone who had begged her not to, and gone to his funeral...after all it was her fault, or so she let herself believe. His heart was beating inside of her chest, he was the reason she was alive and not the one in the pine box, he was her life saver.

Glancing around she noticed the all to familiar faces, none of them knew Chuck though, they were just the endless socialites that had to be there, forced to because of their name. They didn't know him though, what a great man he must have been to take his own life to save that of another. Feeling the urge to cry once again, she looked up to see none other then the first person she'd seen when she woke up coming towards her, her best friend, all she truly had now.

It wasn't until she felt the tall blonds arm go around her, that she allowed herself to come unloose, let the tears once again slide down her cheeks, her heart aching for her lost lover, it wasn't fair, how was she suppose to go on without him?...he'd been her everything, yes she hated him at times for what he'd done to her but that seemed to have all taken place years ago, not only a few weeks prior, not now.

"I wanna go up" Blair murmured looking up at Serena "...I need to go up and see him" She whispered.

Serena knew very well that after having major transplant surgery that Blair coming today hadn't been the best of ideas, but she also knew her best friend needed to mourn correctly instead of holding it all in. Nodding she slowly stood up, giving the signal for Nate to come over and help her, although Blair could walk, she struggled finding herself out of breath quicker.

She could feel the stares as she slowly made her way up to the coffin that held her love, she knew if it wasn't for Serena and Nate holding onto her, she'd probably have collapsed ages ago. It wasn't until they reached the front of the room, and she saw his face, that it fully set in that he'd never come home to her.

"Oh chuck" She murmured, feeling her eyes start to tear up again "Oh come back to me please" She whispered running her hand along the soft fabric that lined the casket "I can't do this without you."

And oh, oh, how could you do it?
Oh I, I never saw it coming.
Oh, oh, I need the ending.
So why can't you stay
Just long enough to explain?

"As we commit our brother Chuck, to the ground" Were the priests final words as he closed his bible and back up from the casket "May he dwell in the house of the lord forever, Amen."

"I'm never going to leave you Blair" He whispered softly into her ear "...You might not be able to see me, but I'll always be beating in your chest. Your the girl who changed me, your the girl I fell for...your the love of my life."

It was just a simple dream she remembered from being unconscious, but now as she dwelled on it she realized it was his last message to her, a small portion of him coming back to her and telling her it'd be okay when he was gone, he'd never be to far away when she needed him.

"Blair sweetie" Serena whispered squeezing her hand softly "Blair..."

Watching the mahogany colored casket descend into the ground was far to much for her to handle, burying her head into her best friends shoulder, she felt the tears slide down her cheeks once again, not even bothering to control them. Once everyone had left, all the limos gone, it was just the three of them again, Dan had opted to stay away from the day, only being their when Serena needed him, and Bart and Lily had left almost immediately. The rain poured down hard on the small black umbrella that was over the three, it was truly time to say goodbye. Nate and Serena had already said their goodbyes, and for the sake of Blair had kept their emotions in tact, the last thing she needed was them to lose it at well, slowly helping her up from the chair that had been provided for her, they gently, slowly and carefully lead her back to his coffin, before it was completely submerged, into the ground.

Gently easing out of the grips of the two, she kneeled down slowly, putting a hand on top of the smooth curved wood.

"I love you" She whispered "You were my first, in so many different ways, you healed my heart in numerous ways as well. I love you Chuck Bass, I always will" She whispered placing a soft kiss on the smooth wood, letting the rose she'd been holding fall onto it "I'll never forget you" She whispered once more, before slowly getting up, going back into the arms of her best friends "Never."

And when it rains,
Will you always find an escape?
Just running away,
From all of the ones who love you,
From everything.


AN: The song was 'when it rains' by paramore, I know its not the whole thing by the lyric site I used screwed me up majorly, so thats why its cut so short.
