Two roads meet

Chapter 4

Chuck didn't visit Blair; she had told him how hard she had found it to see him and he didn't want to cause her further pain. Chuck felt his heart stir every time he thought about her. He had really looked hard for a new heart for her but there just weren't any matching donors.

One evening, Chuck was in deep thought and his scotch bottle was half empty. Blair´s sweet smile kept popping up in his mind. Suddenly the phone rang; Chuck was shook out of his trance like state. The number was unknown to him, however Chuck took it anyway.

"Hello, Chuck," the voice on the other line sounded young, Chuck realized the voice to belong to Taylor- Blair´s brother.

"Hi, Taylor, what can I do for you, man?" Chuck said in his usual tone.

"Blair needs you," Taylor sounded desperate.

"Taylor, Blair told me to stay away from her," Chuck replied trying to get the boy to understand the situation.

"I know that sis told you to stay away but she only said that because she's too scared to let you in," Taylor was trying to get Chuck to understand that Blair needs him.

"Let´s meet and talk about this," Taylor suggested. Chuck knew how much it had cost Taylor to call Chuck; firstly- Eleanor hated him and secondly- Blair would be furious if she found out.

The next day Chuck went to the place Taylor had picked out. When Taylor saw Chuck he couldn't help but look glad to see him, he really believed that Chuck could help his sister.

"Hi, I'm glad you came," Taylor smiled as he indicated to the seat beside him. Chuck sat down and Taylor gave him a book. The book was a pink diary and it belonged to Blair.

"How the hell did you get Blair´s diary? I hope you didn't steal it," Chuck asks in bewilderment.

"I wouldn't call it stealing it more like borrowing" Taylor responded in a hasty voice.

Chuck smirked at Taylor and said" so what am I supposed to do with this diary?"

"Look in it," Taylor said as he looked away. Chuck opened the book and saw Blair neat handwriting. Chuck discovered that Blair had things to do list, the list is full of things Blair would like to do before she dies.

My 7 things to do:

Have a memorable kiss.

Read all the classic books.

To have a boyfriend.

To make love to someone special.

To go on a real date.

To get in to Yale.

Get Serena back.

Chuck knew Blair had gotten the first one on the list- the kiss. Chuck could still remember how her warm lips had wrapped around his lips, how soft she felt, so he knew she would to.

Chuck would love to make love to her. God, Bass, what a perv you are Chuck´s thought.

Chuck said confidently "oh, this list looks quite simple to fulfill." Taylor looked at Chuck once again smiling.

"Would you really help make my sister´s dreams come true?" Taylor asked sounding curious.

"Yes, I'd do anything to see her smile," Chuck said simply.

"Who's Serena?" Chuck asked Taylor.

Taylor gave a small smile and replied" Blair´s old friend."

"Why have I not seen Serena?" Chuck asked again and this time Taylor looked upset.

"Blair, shut Serena out when she found out she was sick," Taylor said in a hasty voice.

"Oh I see- she was trying not to worry Serena," Chuck said in an understanding tone. After all, Blair had tried to push Chuck away as well.

Chuck decided that he was going to talk to Serena as soon as possible. Chuck said goodbye, and thanked Taylor for helping him.

Chuck found Serena´s address – through the help of his PI- and went to seek her out. A blond boy opened the door and said "Hi, can I help you?"

"Hi, I am Chuck Bass; I´m looking for Serena is she home?" Chuck asked in a polite tone.

"Yeah, come in, I am Eric by the way," Eric lead him in. The apartment was big and white and roomy.

Eric called out Serena´s name. She came rushing down looking very flush.

"Chuck here wants to talk to you," Eric said simply and walked away. Serena was a blond girl with shining blue eyes; sexy to most men but Chuck didn't feel a thing for her.

"So what do you want Chuck?" Serena said in a cold tone as she walked over to a chair to sit down.

"I´m here because of Blair," Chuck replied swiftly.

Serena calm look changed instantly "What about Blair," Serena tried to act cold but Chuck could feel her fear that something bad had happened to Blair.

"Blair is very ill" Chuck said in a steady tone. Serena stared at him in disbelief; Blair had been fine when she last saw her.

"You're lying to me, Blair is fine you are only trying to get me to feel bad," Serena snapped at Chuck.

"No I´m not- you have to see Blair," Chuck calmly responded as he walked over to the door.

"Have a good day," Chuck said as left. Serena was left sitting down, shaking in fear for her friend.

Chuck knew he had been slightly hard on Serena but this thing between Blair and Serena had to stop.

Chuck called to Yale to demand for a place for Blair; being a Bass always had its advantages.

"I don't think you get me here, this girl has talent and she really needs to get in," Chuck said speaking in a low and businesslike tone.

Chuck finally got Yale to give Blair a place after a long time bartering - it had cost him a lot of money but she was worth it.

Chuck next went to Borders and brought all the classic books on Blair´s list.

He brought them with him to the hospital to see Blair she was lying in her white hospital bed and looking at the ceiling.

"Blair," Chuck said softly as he walked in. Blair looked at him and her bottom lip began to tremble.

"Please don't cry," Chuck begged in a concerned voice. Blair was hooked up to two different IVs and looked so innocent and fragile that he couldn't bear to see her cry.

"Chuck, why are you here?" Blair asked shakily. Chuck sat down and held the bag of books up to her. Blair looked at the bag and her eyes lit up "You brought them all for me?"

"Yes, I hope you like them," Blair lifted the first book up and tried to read it but her hands shook too much.

"I can read it to you," Chuck suggested as he took the book and began to read out loud, Blair seemed to like his voice as she grew calmer and seemed to be shaking less.

Chuck spent many of the upcoming days like this- reading to Blair and keeping her company.

Bart was checking his bank account as he saw a lot of money from Chuck's collage account is missing.

He called Charles to ask about the money missing, Bart hadn't seen or heard from Charles in days. He hadn't been seen with a woman in a long time, which was good news to Bart but still it seemed too good to be true.

"Charles, did you draw money from your collage account?" Bart asked his son. On the other end of the line is a very collected Chuck. He knew his father would eventually ask him about the money.

"Yes, I have father and it will be returned soon," Chuck said still calm and collected.

Bart was surprised over Charles honesty, Bart thought Charles would lie about the money missing.

"What are you going to do with this money?" Bart said in a worried tone. Bart Bass did not like people to just waste his hard earned money.

"It's for a very special person," Chuck replied simply.

"Is there any chance for me to meet this stunning being that has captivated my son´s attention?" Bart asked.

"I have to ask her first," Chuck said- he really wanted his father to meet Blair, but still Blair was sick and she had to agree on this first.
