A/N: Please Enjoy. The prom is almost up, but there may be more drama with it. Reviews are appreciated.
"So what did you want to talk to me about?"
Blair and Nate were sitting on the bench that she and Eric had sat on a few minutes earlier. Blair looked at him with tears brimming her eyes. He sensed something was wrong.
"Is anything bothering you?"
She shook her head. She pulled his hand onto her lap.
"Nate, we have always been friends, right?"
Nate looked at her confused.
"Right……"
"Yes well sometimes things come up and we can't control them."
"Like what things?"
"Like feelings."
"Feelings?"
"Yes, feelings. Look I don't know how to say this."
"Don't worry, just say what you have to say."
He moved closer to her. She tried not to look him in the eyes. She couldn't stand to see his face when she told him.
"My feelings for Chuck have grown into something more. I love him, Nate. Not like a friend, like a soul mate."
She looked at Nate. His face was in total shock. Why would she take him! He is a womanizer. I thought he understood how I felt about her, he thought. He looked back at Blair. She looked so sad.
"Do you love me?"
"Yes of course, as a friend."
"But not as a boyfriend?"
"Nate, we tried dating and we both know it didn't work. We are just destined to be friends. Out there, there is a girl who would be lucky to date you. You're funny, talented and good looking. What girl doesn't want that?'
Nate looked at her.
"You."
"Nate….. Just because I don't doesn't mean some other girl won't."
He half smiled. He knew she could always make him feel better. She got up and he followed her back to the ball room. They sat back in their seats. Everyone looked at them, scared. Chuck turned to Nate.
"Nate you okay?"
"Surprisingly, yes."
They both smiled. Blair noticed Eric sitting alone.
"Come on Eric."
He looked at her.
"What?"
"We are going to go dance."
She took his arm and led him to the middle of the dance floor. It was a slow song and they both knew what to do. Eric looked at Blair. She smiled. Once the dance was over they went back to their seats. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. A photographer that was hired was making their way to them.
"May I take pictures of you are your dates?"
Serena replied.
"Yes."
First he took one of Serena and Dan. They both smiled so happily. Next of Blair and Eric. Before the man took the picture, Blair turned to Eric.
"I really want to thank you for coming. You don't know how much it meant to me."
He just smiled. She leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. He blushed. Then both saw the camera's flash go off.
"Next."
They heard the photographer. He gave them their picture. There it was. Her lips on his pink cheeks. They both laughed. The photographer looked at the two remaining boys.
"Didn't you two bring dates?"
"Nah just take one of both of us."
They posed and he took their picture before giving them a weird look. After they all had looked over their pictures, Chuck went to Blair.
"Come on let's go show the world that we are a couple."
She smiled.
"Sure."
He led her to the dance floor. They danced and kissed. Everyone looked at them in awe. Hazel was looking from afar. She grabbed a chair and started walking towards them. Jenny noticed.
"Hazel what are you doing?"
"Something I should have done a long time ago."
She made her way to Blair. Blair didn't notice until it was too late. All she saw was a chair about to hit her on the head. Before she could respond, she had been hit and she fell to the ground.
Hello Upper EastSiders.
