Nate held his hand out and Serena took it and got out of the car, being careful not to let her short dress ride up. She felt the flashing in her face as soon as she got out of the car and Nate stepped in front of her to block her from the paparazzi.

She smiled and waved at them with her free hand, her ring nearly blinding her.

They walked in to find all their friends and family standing in the room. They raised their champagne glasses and waiters quickly rushed over to hand them each a glass. Nate's boss was there and so were Serena's agent and manager. She looked around, anyone and everyone was there.

William Vanderbilt stood up to give his speech.

Nate looked over at Serena. He kissed her hand and led her to the center of the room.

Serena didn't listen to the next 20 minutes. She pictured her and Nate going on a honeymoon together. Eventually having kids. She wanted a boy, then a girl. She made a mental list of names that she liked.

Nate smiled. "Thank you guys so much for being here to celebrate this moment in our lives. And for all your kind words. I love you guys." He turned to her. "Serena, you are the love of my life."

She looked at him. "You're the love of my life too." She paused. "I'm so glad you're all here. We were lucky enough to have been born into families that handed us everything." She made eye contact with William. "Now it's time for us to make our own decisions. Thanks for all the support." She smiled at Blair. "And to Blair. The best maid of honor anyone could ever ask her. You're more than my best friend, you're my sister. Thanks for working so hard to plan our wedding. Cheers." She took a sip of champagne.

…

Nate walked across the street to get the newspaper stand. He turned the finance section and squinted as he tried to read in the dark.

He heard tired squeal before him and before he could turn around he felt hands hold him down while a black bag was put over his head.

His heart was racing. He couldn't believe what was happening. He managed to free one hand and swung it hard behind him. He felt his fist crash against someone's lip and then heard a loud cry.

"Holy shit!" They let him go immediately and he ripped the bag off his head. His friends Anthony, Charlie, Jeremy and of course Chuck were surrounding him. Jeremy clutched his bloody mouth. "Dude! You're insane."

Nate couldn't help but laugh. "I am so sorry. What the hell are you guys doing anyway?"

They all broke out in laughter. "We're kidnapping you. For your bachelor party. You idiot."

"Oh! My bad. Let me just run up and let Serena know."

Charlie rolled his eyes. "We already told her not to expect you to come home this weekend."

Jeremy wiped the blood off his mouth and smiled at him. "Oh and she says you can look but not touch. And that if you cheat on her she'll cut your balls off…she laughed after that but I wouldn't mess with her if I were you."

Nate laughed. "Alright. Where are you taking me?"

Chuck gave him his famous smirk. "Put the bag over his head."

Nate walked into his apartment. Serena wasn't there so he headed straight to bed. His head was still pounding from his hangover. He rolled his suitcase to the foot of the bed and jumped on it. He had a great weekend in Vegas with his friends but he was glad to be home before he lost all function of his liver.

Serena walked into the room and jumped on him. "You're back!"

He smiled and kissed her. "I am."

"Longest 2 days ever. How did it go? Do I even want to know?"

He shrugged; he had little to no recollection of the past couple of days. "It was fine." He pulled a small box out of his suitcase. "I bought you these."

They were diamond earrings. "Oh they're gorgeous! Thank you." She kissed him softly.

"I'm glad you like them. Did you miss me?"

She curled up against him and kissed his neck. "So much."

He felt shivers up and down his spine. He lifted his face to hers and kissed her hungrily. She kissed him back and pulled his shirt over his head.

He ripped her shirt and bra off with two quick moves. He cupped her breasts with his hands and she let out a small moan that drove him crazy.

She pulled him on top of her and let out a small gasp when he entered her. She wrapped her legs around his hips and pulled him further into her. Her heart was beating out of control and his breath got heavier and heavier the more he rocked her back and forth. He was finished almost immediately and the feeling of him inside of her made her finish right after him.

He rolled off her gasping for air.

She steadied her breathing. "That was fast." She smiled at him. "And that's exactly how I know you didn't cheat on me while you were gone."

He laughed. "I'm glad you confirmed it." He rolled on top of her again and whispered dirty things in her ear.

She giggled and pushed him off of her. "You're ridiculous." She pulled on his shirt and threw him his boxers. "Come."

"I just did." He winked and smiled at her.

"Haha. Very funny." She held out her hand. "Follow me."

He took her hand a followed her. "What is this?"

She grabbed the box off the table and handed it to him. "I'm not sure. A random guy delivered it."

Nate's heart stopped as her recognized the writing on the box. "It's some work stuff." He looked away hoping she couldn't tell he was lying. He caressed her leg. "I'll worry about it later. Let's go back to bed."

Nate snuck back to the living room when Serena was asleep. He tore open the package desperately. His heart sunk when he saw what was inside. He sat back on the couch and buried his face in his hands.
