A/N: So, I guess I'm not that bad of a writer…gaaaah, I don't even know anymore. Everything's so screwed up right now. Here's the next chapter though. Hopefully we won't have to see too much of Chuck/Eva in tonight's episode, but somehow I doubt it. *sigh*

"I'm Chuck Bass."

-Chuck (4x02)

4x02—At the Beginning

"You know the first time I started loving the sound of my name?"

She gave up a choked laughter, but he seemed unmoved. She turned over in bed, looking at his curiously reminiscent expression. He seemed in another world, even when he turned his gaze to look at her. He was smiling a little.

"No, when?"

"When you told me yours."

She laughed. "You were saying your first and last name with the utmost cockiness imaginable long before I came along."

He smirked. "Ah yes, but I didn't quite enjoy the reactions as much until I heard how demanding you were on people learning yours."

She giggled. "What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about," He turned his own body over to focus more on her. He pulled her closer to him, thrilling from the feel of her naked flesh against his. "How when we first met as preschoolers, you met Nathaniel first and introduced yourself as 'the Blair Waldorf'. It sounded as good an introduction as any."

She giggled loudly, which only made him smile like an idiot and pull her closer. He lay on his back and pulled her onto his chest in one swoop. She started giggling again, even more so when he put a finger to her lips. Finally he kissed her to silence her. She moaned into him and her fingers flew into his hair, digging into this scalp. He shivered.

She lifted her head and dabbed her finger on the tip of his nose. "You do realize you're giving me the credit for your lifelong motto, right?"

He smirked. "I'm Chuck Bass, babe. It's what I do."

She laughed again, wondering if he really heard himself talking, really realized how contradictory his words and actions were to her as they were to everybody else. She didn't care though. He was kissing her again.

Eva looked at him with suspicion. He wondered if his name had caused any realization to dawn in her. A limo pulling up must have triggered something. He felt a little uneasy about the wary acceptance in her eyes. There would have only been pure pride with Blair Waldorf in this situation. Then again, he wouldn't have lied to her to begin with.

A/N: The shortest one yet, I know. But I had to finish it before the episode. Lol.
