"So your great plan is to invoke the help of little Jenny Humphrey?" The look on Blair's face was one of utter disbelief. She had thought for sure that Chuck Bass would be able to come up with something clever and unique for revenge and yet apparently he must have hit his head or something because this had to be the worst plan for revenge in the history of ever. "I think you must have smoked away your last brain cell last night Bass. How on earth do you think the little wannabe from Brooklyn can actually be of assistance? I doubt that girl has ever pulled off a scheme in her short life."

"I never said she had to know what she was doing to be of help now did I?" Chuck stated with a wicked grin as he slung an arm around her shoulder before heading up the steps of the school with her once they arrived. "You need to get past your hate of anything from Brooklyn and see how perfect this is. Not only is little J a soft spot when it comes to Nate since he always had a thing for blondes, but she is also the sister of lonely boy who wants nothing more than to get Serena Van Der Woodsen to notice him. The fact she will do almost anything to get you to notice her is only icing on the cake Waldorf."

The Queen of Constance sighed and removed his arm from around his shoulder as if she were getting rid of the most disgusting thing on earth. "I am still not following your train of thought, which you can't blame me for since your mind is something scientist would love to study if they could."

"That is not the only thing they would like to get their hands on." Chuck smirked and ran the tips of his fingers down her arm suggestively before quickly pulling them away at her scowl. "Back to my genius plan, as I was saying before little J is perfect for the part we want her to play. Now I may not have siblings of my own, but I do know that there is nothing she is going to want other than her brothers happiness. In order for her social retard of a brother to achieve happiness he is going to need Serena by his side. You and I both know how Serena has a thing for strays and it is obvious once we get Nathaniel out of the way she will go for Daniel Humphrey."

Finally Blair was starting to see where he was going with this. "Distract Serena with a shiny slightly used toy and Nate will be left out in the cold. The question is how do we get Serena to turn her back on him? He obviously is not going to believe a word I say to him when it comes to Serena."

"Well this is where Jenny plays a crucial part." Her devious male friend stated with a lazy smirk. "You still have an extra invite to the masked ball yes? You should slip it to Jenny telling her it is for all her hard work with helping you make them. Then this is where I come in to play. It won't be too hard to find out what Van Der Woodsen Barbie will be wearing and we can make sure little J is wearing the exact same thing complete with mask. I'll use my clever wit to make Nathaniel think it was his idea to talk to Serena and confess his feelings."

"Only he won't be confessing them to Serena." She said matching his smirk as she gave a little wave to Jenny who happened to walk by them. If she was going to use the girl to get what she wanted then she at least had to pretend she could stand her.

The billionaire teen nodded glad she understood where he was going with this. "He will be confessing those feelings to Jenny who will have a mini tape recorder in her purse even if she won't realize it. Then all you have to do the next day is pour out those fake tears you are so good at producing about how you are heartbroken over your ex and she won't be able to keep the truth to herself. I know you women like to pretend that you are complicated, but I know better. She will want nothing more than to help you get over your heartache because she is naïve enough to think you could actually be a nice person. Then step one will be complete and we can move on to step two."

"Which is total social destruction." The self-proclaimed good girl finished for him as she clapped her hands together in excitement.

"Exactly." Chuck said leaning against the locker next to hers. "It is nice to know that you aren't going soft princess. I always loved a girl with a passion for revenge. How about a kiss to seal the deal?"

Blair scrunched her face up in disgust as he puckered his lips together playfully. She pushed him away from her before turning on her heel. "How about you go jump off a cliff?"

With a laugh Chuck followed her since they had the same first class. "You know love me Waldorf and it is only a matter of time before you admit it not only to me, but to yourself as well. With Nathaniel no longer in the picture there is no reason to deny it any longer. We both know you can't help, but be attracted to me."

With an eye roll Blair walked in to the classroom and went directly to her seat which thankfully was nowhere near the vicinity of Chuck Bass. She may not be able to stand him most of the time and yet she could not lie to herself about being grateful he was helping her. Chuck is the only friend she had left and she honestly did appreciate him being there for her. She would never tell him this to his face of course though she had a suspicion he may know her darkest secret. The good thing about being friends with Chuck Bass though had to be the fact he knew when to keep his mouth shut. Sometimes you didn't need to use words to express what you were feeling.

00000000

The rest of the day had been seemingly uneventful for Chuck at least. He had just been heading outside to annoy his favorite Waldorf during lunch when he heard her arguing with Serena. He stopped and hid around the corner. Apparently Serena had no idea Nate had spilled the truth to Blair and she had no idea as to why her best friend was giving her the cold shoulder. Blair looked as if she wanted to strangle the blond and for this the playboy could not blame her. He didn't even like Serena and yet here he was tempted to slap the stupid blond out of her for what she had done to Blair.

"I thought we settled everything B?" Serena asked with a sad expression on her face. Why couldn't her friend realize she needed her more than ever with everything going down? She needed her friend like she had never needed her before and this is one of the reasons she had come back. "We agreed to start over with a clean slate remember?"

The teen girl with chestnut curls scowled and crossed her arms over her chest. "Well after thinking about it I have come to the conclusion that I want to start over without you in my life S. I have re-evaluated what is important in my life and you are not. I am done living in your shadow and being there to pick up the pieces of your mess of a life. See how long you last without me taking care of you."

When she stomped off the blond stood there stunned. She could not believe Blair had just basically walked out of her life. They had always been friends and always been able to get through every situation no matter how tough it may seem. Had she really lost her best friend forever? Was there anything she could do to fix this? Serena knew something had to be bothering Blair other than her coming back after being gone for over a year and she was going to find out what it was. She would just have to talk to Nate and get the whole story. As her boyfriend he would have to know what was going on and how to fix it.

Blair was so angry after her talk with Serena even if it had been a short one. All she wanted to do was go to the bathroom and get rid of her lunch. It would make her feel better like it always had in the past. She had just turned the corner and changed direction to head to the girls bathroom when suddenly her feet were no longer on the ground. She felt strong arms wrap around her waist as she was hoisted off the ground before being thrown over the shoulder of the one and only son of Bart Bass. Immediately she started to smack him with her fists on any part of him she could reach from this position.

"Put me down Bass!" She demanded kicking her feet hoping to get him, but only meeting air. What the hell did he think she was doing? "Put me down right this instant!"

And let you do what I know you were planning to go and do in the bathroom?" Readjusting her on his shoulder he continued to head out of the building. He may not be the most intelligent man on the planet, but he was smart enough to know what she had been planning to do and he was not going to see her go down that road again. "I don't think so Waldorf."

Blair continued to struggle against him as their fellow student body watched in amusement. Some of them even took out their phones to snap a picture of video which they would be later sending to gossip girl. "You are going to cause a scene!"

"No, you are going to cause a scene if you keep screaming and as much as I love being the center of attention I doubt you want this to show up on Gossip Girl. Now shut up, quit complaining, and be happy I am getting you out of here. Everyone needs to play hooky once in a while Blair or they turn in to dull robots of society." He told her before walking down the steps and over to his limo. He did not release his hold on her until he had the door open. He threw her inside and climbed in after her so that she would not have a chance to escape. He knew as well as she did that if she went back in to school in the emotional state she happened to in then it would only be a matter of time before her finger found its way down her throat.

The queen B sighed and pouted as she fell back against the seat. This was going to ruin her perfect attendance record for sure. Shooting a look meant to kill his way she snapped at him. "I'd rather be a robot than like you."

"I highly doubt that." He replied not taking her comment to heart. Chuck had known Blair long enough to know the only reason she was acting as if she hated him was because it was her way to avoid everything else she was feeling at that particular moment in time. What she needed was a distraction and he was going to give her one. "In fact you have just given me a brilliant idea. You are going to live a day in the life of Chuck Bass. I'll show you how to really live Waldorf and you can thank me later in private with much less clothing."

Without waiting for her reply he rolled down the window separating the back from the front and directed his driver Arthur to a club he had been frequenting quite often as of late. He had been planning to show his father a business proposal about by the place and he could use her opinion since she was his second toughest critic. "I want to show you something anyways Waldorf so stop acting like you are not intrigued and try to enjoy the rest of the day in my wonderful company."

"With you?" She scoffed and turned her head to look out the window. "I think I would rather down a shot of Draino."

AN: Here is the next chapter and I have to admit that I think it came out pretty well. It could have been better, but I still feel like crap and I wanted to write this anyways. I hope that you all liked it and in the next chapter you will get to see some lemon between Chuck and Blair. I was going to wait until the chapter after the next, but it works out better this way. Let me know if you all liked this or not.

Please R&R like always!

Preview for the next chapter:

"You want your father to invest in a strip joint?" "How very Moulin Rouge of you."

"It's a burlesque club."

"Is there a difference?"

"There are many differences." "This is a place where you can go to escape. You can be whatever or whoever you want without having to worry about being judged. It also does not hurt you are surrounded by half dressed women."

"There is the Chuck Bass I know and despise." "Well I am sold on the place. I suppose it has franchise potential. Are you going to show me around or do I have to get lost on my own?"
