"Blair". Chuck rolled over, hoping yet again that his wife was laid next to him, though he knew deep down she wasn't. She wasn't ever coming back. She had left him all alone with their son. She had done the one thing she promised she wouldn't
"I'll stand by you through anything".
Chuck wanted to hate her. She had left him to do the one thing he was scared of the most. The cries of his son drew him from his thoughts once again. Chuck wanted to reach for the phone, to call down and get the in-house nanny to come up and take him, take what had taken Blair. But he swore, and unlike Blair, he was going to honour his promise. They had talked about what would happen if something were to happened to Blair, Chuck had always wanted to shut the conversation down, nothing was going to happen to Blair, it couldn't: she was too stubborn.
Chuck went through the motions. Ten days ago, he had lost the only love in his life, but now he had a stronger bond with the baby in his arms. Chuck felt nothing but love looking at him; he had Chuck's eyes but looked so much like Blair. He watched him suckling contently on the bottle, his brown eyes searching for Chuck's. The baby still had no name. It was something Blair was adamant on. "We can't name them until we know what they look like". Chuck had smiled and humoured her at the time. Now he knew what she meant. Bartholomew had been his first choice, but now, with his son his arms, the name felt a disgrace to give to their son. True, Bart had apologised to him about the way he had been treated, but surely, there had to be something wrong with Bart if he didn't love his son with the same love Chuck felt right now for the boy in his arms.
Chuck took the baby back to bed, resting him softly on the silk comforter. Blair and he had chosen all the baby furniture themselves, but now it felt like a betrayal to lay their son in it. Blair had spent days making sure that the right colour and texture fabric was used to create the perfect room, and now it was like a heirloom of theirs. Chuck hadn't entered the nursery since the day hehad collected the baby bag before they headed to the hospital … now it took everything he had to walk past it. The two cribs laid in perfect distance from each other each with a mobile and changing station connected. The room held so many memories. Now it was a symbol of her life: closed off, perfect, and holding so many memories.
L O V E
Blair had finally fallen asleep, but it was after two. She could only hope baby Ella stayed asleep throughout her tears. Ten days old and Blair already felt like she had let her down, like it would have been better if she had taken both of them – it would have been easier. Blair turned over and watched her baby angel's chest rise and fall, her lips puckered into a pout and Blair shook the images from her head. She was dwelling and she knew it was time to put Chuck behind her. It was time Blair put Ella first – Chuck was in the past. He didn't want her, he had made that clear. All this time she had truly loved him andshe should have known better. Now all she had to focus on was this perfect little angel that lay before her, she was so totally consumed with love. Ella was all she had left to live for, and she was going to make sure Ella had everything she never did.
Blair could lay and watch her all day. Ella was perfect in every way; she looked perfect – even her cry was cute. She fascinated Blair. Every little thing she did was incredible, she could watch her curl and un-curl her tiny little fingers forever. Ella's little mouth suckled forward as Blair smiled down at her. Any second she knew she would come face to face with the dark brown orbs that looked adoringlyup at her.
