She looked for the fourth present, spotting a rather tiny one with a four on it.
She slowly read the card.
B
At seven years old you were ravishing.
Your mother had finally allowed you to wear makeup.
You would have been beautiful without it anyways.
Your signature color, ruby red, was entirely Blair. Primand proper, yet still sexy.
C
Inside was a Chanel lipstick. In ruby red.
But something was different.
Instead of looking like her stick of ruby red Chanel lipstick, this one had two Bs, instead of Cs.
She realized that it must have been custom made.
She smiled, a placed the lipstick carefully on her purse.
"Come on Blair!" Serena was whispering at Blair.
They were inside Lily's cavernous bathroom. Searching for the cosmetics they wanted.
They wanted to brighten up their day, their faces, with some makeup.
Finding the lipsticks, Blair was immediately drawn to the dark red one. Serena chose the pink one.
The day before her seventh birthday, Blair had decided that she wanted makeup, and she wanted to wear it.
Her mom had presented her with a box of makeup. There was an array of shades inside, all light pinks and nude beiges.
Chuck had presented her with a sole lipstick. Ruby red, just like now.
Blair just laughed, Chuck was being way too sweet to be Chuck.
That's probably why she loved him.
