Chapter 14
They were now outside of the school; it was the first day back and Blair was wearing a new skirt with assistance from Chuck that going up a size would not be the end of the world, and Serena holding her hand when purchasing them, also helped.
They were all sitting in Chuck's limo, all 4 of them. Serena, Blair, Chuck and Eric. "You ready B?" Serena said to an extremely nervous Blair. "No" she replied simply. Serena squeezed Blair's hand. "It'll be okay B." Serena said looking over Blair's head to Chuck, then over at Eric who was sitting on the side. "Yea, Blair, we have your back and Serena will be at your side, the whole day, and I'll be by Chuck's" Eric said putting a hand on Chuck's shoulder, over this last week they have become close, warming up to the idea of being a family. But Chuck looked exactly like Blair; he knew this day wouldn't be easy far from it. "Alright well I'm going to see if the coast is clear." Serena said to everyone in the limo, getting out and shutting the door. Blair nodded and understood what she meant, they talked about it before, Nate, she and Chuck just didn't want to confront him today, especially the first day back, in front of everyone. "Well I'll check too, I'll let you know when and remember guys we have your back." Eric said to Blair and Chuck who nodded. They were silent after Eric got out and shut the door behind him, joining his sister.
"Let's go." Blair said hastily. Chuck looked at her weird "really? Serena hasn't given us the signal yet?" "No lets leave, now, the school, the city, for awhile just you and me…wait for the scandal to die down…" "Blair if we leave now, and don't step out of this limo, when we do come back they'll eat us alive." Blair looked away and looked down at the floor, "If we leave…as amazing at that would be, because It would be amazing…it'll be way worse when we get back, and i think we should just get it over with now, and just deal…some how…" Blair wouldn't look up from the ground and Chuck grabbed her hand, "It's just…I'm scared." Blair mumbled so quietly to the ground the Chuck barely heard it, but he did. And he knew what this meant for her, in all his life knowing Blair; he has never admitted those 2 words. Chuck squeezed her hand tilted her head up and toward him, he saw tears in her eyes and one tear even escaped. "I am too" he said to Blair, as he wiped away the tear. Blair leaned into his, palm, Blair felt somewhat better, she wasn't alone, and Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf aren't scared, they just aren't and they don't admit to it, even to themselves. For them to admit it to themselves and each other, they both knew was a huge deal.
Chuck then heard 3 consistence knocks, on the window, the signal. They both looked at the window then at each other. They both nodded and scooted to the door, Chuck got out first, easily climbing over Blair. Blair took a deep breath then got out of the limo. Chuck closed the door, once she was fully out. And put a hand on her back. Once the door shut it seemed like everyone in the courtyard was looking towards them. Chuck gulped and looked beside him to Eric, who seemed to look nervous too. Serena instantly went to hold Blair's hand, and Blair grabbed it for dear her dear life; she always wanted the attention, everyone to look at her, but for her greatness not this. Serena and Chuck both looked at Each other over Blair's head she was shivering, literally, and not from the cold; she was petrified. Serena made the first move forward after nodding at Chuck. It was now, or never.
As they started walking into the courtyard, people immediately started whispering and all of their eyes seemed to be on Blair's stomach. They started making their way up the stairs when and where almost off of them, finally almost to the doors, when a figure stepped out of group of St. Jude's boys. "Well, look who decided to show up." Serena, Blair, Chuck and Eric all looked to the corner a few feet from the door to see who it was. Chuck immediately saw red when he saw who it was, Eric grabbed Chuck's arm knowing he would want to charge at him. Serena looked at Blair, then at Chuck who seemed like he could kill something or someone right then. "Let's keep walking" Serena said. "Yea you wouldn't want to make the slut late." Everything after that was a blur, despite Eric's attempts, Chuck charged at Nate grabbing his neck forcing him into the wall. "How dare you call her that, what has she done so bad to you, honestly Archibald!" Chuck said yelling into Nate's face. Everyone gathered around them, taking out their phones, watching the blowout as Serena, Eric and Blair rushed closely to Chuck's side. "She lied to me, you all did!" Nate spit back. Chuck just tighted his grip "Boo fuckedy who, if I recall you lied to her for almost a fucking year! You still went on dates-" "That was different" "How! You fucked Serena while you two were still dating! Me and Blair Waited until you were broken up, so yes Nate I guess you're right! It was different, cause unlike you we waited!" Chuck yelled into Nate's face. Everyone around was in shock, No one exactly knew why Blair and Serena were fighting in the Beginning of the year, now they did & the crowd was now talking and looking at Serena who looked down in shame, it was such a mistake with Nate, she felt terrible at what she did. Blair looked over at her friend and squeezed her hand, she knew how bad Serena felt, she let go of Serena's hand and walked up to Chuck, who looked as he was about to kill Nate; she placed a hand on his shoulder, this needed to stop.
Chuck thought he was about to kill Nate, when he immediately softened when he felt Blair's hand, he looked behind him, she was pleading with her eyes for it to stop, the tears in her eyes made him turn back to Nate and with one last look, he shoved him against the wall letting go of him turning back towards Blair, putting his arm around her waist leading her through a now splitting crowd for them, everyone knew not to mess with a pissed Bass.
When Blair and Chuck were clearly inside; Serena and Everyone else turned back to Nate. Serena ignored everyone and walked up to Nate with every amount of disgust in her being, shrugging off Eric's attempts to hold her back, Serena right now was pissed. Nate was just standing there in silence; everyone now knew that he wasn't exactly innocent in this. "You know Nate I always thought that you were the good guy, how could you do that to her?" Serena said into Nate's face, Nate was just silent. "Its sad because she practically forgave you instantly after she found out what we did, and you sneaking into her house, and sending those pictures to gossip girl…" Serena said trailed off, Nate was still silent just staring at her. "Your not even defending yourself? Hmm typical Nate…" Nate looked away, Serena started walking away then turned back "and Nate?" Nate looked back at her with she thought were tears in his eyes, but she wouldn't feel bad for him, never again would she. "Stay away from Blair; she's finally happy with Chuck, well as happy as she could be with the damage that you've done…" Serena shook her head in disgust towards him, "I will never forgive you for what you did to her, to Chuck, and I pray that they never will either." She said to him, then Nate spoke up, he couldn't lose Serena, she's just always been there for him, he just couldn't. "Serena…wait…I" Nate spoke up walking towards her, opening his arms in a pleading way. "Don't ever speak to me again…come on" Serena said glancing a glare at Nate, grabbing Eric's shoulder pulling him along. Everyone just started gossiping at what happened and looking through their phones, no doubt sending whatever they captured to gossip girl.
The bell rang then indicating that school was starting, everyone cleared out boys to St. Jude's, girls to Constance, leaving Nate standing out their alone, shocked, and realizing and regretting what he had done.
Serena said goodbye to Eric ad her made his way into & went to go find Blair, but before she needed to do something…
