A.N. Hey guys I know it's been a really long time, like a really long time, but I've just had ALOT of family stuff going on, some stress worthy and some not, but I am proud to say that I am going to be an aunt for the first time! my sister, Blair is pregnant, I know FREAKY! (our old teacher from our HS, who is OBSESSED with GG, was like "now there's 2 Blair's pregnant!" haha I love her!) but yes that's exciting, and I'm also going to be his godmother! yes! it's a boy! Michael Ryan Soto, after Blair and I's late little brother Michael and Blair's boyfriend's brother, Ryan who is 1 of 2 godfathers to Michael! well enough about me and what I have been doing I hope you all had a veryyyy merry Christmas, I know I did, Santa brought me a wireless keyboard for my ipad 2 so this is actually why I'm writing again, ( I HATE typing on a tap pad, it's just ughhh! I like the clicking! ) okay enough talking, here it is! enjoy! :) He couldn't believe it, he just couldn't believe it, Chuck laid there stroking a sleeping Blair's head, her luxurious curls entangled with his chest hair, he watched her with a small smile on his face while she breathed in out as her fingers on her left hand tangled themselves in his chest hair. While Blair could say all she want how she hated "unnecessary hair", Chuck was definitely the exception, their first time, in the back of his limo that was the first thing the she instantly latched onto, Chuck smirked thinking about it, he teased her about it occasionally during their month together, she would blush and cuddle more into him or continue kissing him, depending on what they were doing. A sudden ray of light hitting him in the face, is what brought chuck out of the memory. He looked down back at his brunette beauty to see if it fazed her any, she just crinkled her nose and fell back into oblivion, he wished he could see outside, but he knew if he moved she would wake up, and he thought she looked too peaceful for that, she hasn't looked like that in a long, time he thought to himself. He kissed the top of her head once more before closing his eyes and falling back to sleep with a satisfied smirk on his face, he finally had his girl, they obviously needed to talk about it more, but chuck now, chuck was a very happy young man.

Roman looked at his partner in despair, Harold was going absolutely crazy for the past 10 hours, they had gotten snowed in at the resturaunt and had to stay at the Inn attached to it. Harold didn't want any room to stay in though he just wanted to get home to his pregnant very alone daughter, Blair didn't know how to start a fire, or do any of that stuff, he tried to assure his fiancé that Blair was a strong girl she would figure it out and take care of herself and her baby, she would be fine. After hour 5, Roman finally got that through Harold. But as soon as the roads were cleared, Harold wanted 1st car available to take him to his house, it was 7am, and he was ready to get home to his daughter.
Roman looked down at their legs and saw Harold was shaking, "Mon chéri, elle ira bien." Harold looked at Roman with a smile, "Je sais" He hoped at least she would be fine.
She was in such a good place, she was in awe, she never wanted to leave this dream, she was Audrey (of course) but instead of her usual leading man (Nate) it was different, but the best different possible. Chuck was such a better leading man anyway; he had the old Hollywood looks, whilst Nate was more modern pretty boy.
Except this time it was different, we weren't in tiffany's but on a balcony looking over the city, we were Blair and chuck except for I was dressed like Audrey in her famous LBD and I had her infamous "pineapple 'do" and the tiara, but something was different I looked down and a realized I was pregnant I smiled big, I was happy about it in my dream, really happy, the happiest I ever felt.
suddenly I feel someone come up behind me, for some reason I knew who it was it was chuck well "Paul" he was dressed in an all gray suit,. But instead of a white button-down it was chuck's signature purple, button-down, and instead of Paul's skinny tie's chuck was wearing a black bow-tie.
He laced his hand in mine as we hold our baby, he leans down to kiss my exposed neck, I feel him smile against it as we both feel our baby kick our hands. He kisses all the way to my ear then leans against it as he whispers "I love you"; I pull back
"So what?"
"So what? So plenty! I love you! & you belong to me!"
I pulled back even more dropping our hands "No people don't belong to people" I say as move to go back inside, "Of course they do" chuck says grabbing my arm.
"I'm not going to let anyone put me in a cage" I say trying to make him understand, he just then gently grabs my face into his hands "I don't want to put you in a cage, Blair. I want to love you" he says looking straight into her chocolate brown eyes "I'm going to love you, whether you like it or not, and I'm going to do so, because I know you love me too, we are going to be parents in a couple months, and again whether we or anyone likes it that is our kingdom" He says motioning over to the beautiful city below us. "You are the queen and I am your king, and this" He says as he takes one of his and my hands and brings it down to our baby "this, is our princess or prince of our kingdom" I tearfully smile back at him he's right, this time I take my hands to cup his face, "your right, about everything" I tearfully laugh "I love you too" Chuck smiles the biggest smile I've ever seen on him. We kiss then, the beautiful, epic, romantic, movie kisses, it wonderful were laughing and giggling everything is wonderful, that is until we here a slam, and my name being called...
Blair was smiling when she woke up, the smile soon faded once she realized why she was indeed being woken up from...
****************************savechuckandblair savechuckandblair **************************
As the car pulled up Harold anxiously looked at the house in front of him, Roman barely said a word before Harold jumped out of the car as it came to a stop. He had to get to Blair, he needed to. He called Blair's name as he opened the front door, he was mid-sentence when he saw luggage sitting in the foyer. What the hell? What was luggage doing there, he looked more closely until he saw what made him slam the front door and hollered Blair's name, running up the stairs to her room.
Roman just opened the front door and looked at Harold in alarm, but then as he looked down and saw the luggage but more importantly the tag with "CB" starring back at him. "Harold!" he yelled as he raced up the stairs after him.
Harold slammed the door to his daughter's room.
"BLAIR!"
Blair shot up from where she was laying on chuck's chest. "Dad" Blair said in confusion.
Harold looked at Blair with such outrage, but more towards her state of undress and who Blair was on more than anything.
Chuck woke up in alarm like Blair had but moved to cover up Blair's exposed chest, with the sheets. It seemed like everything after that happened in a blur to Blair, one minute chuck was literally under her, then the next he was being thrown from her bed onto her floor, by her father.
Blair got out of bed in haste grabbing her robe and putting it on.
"Daddy STOP!" said getting in front of chuck, stopping her father from doing any more damage.
"How can you be protecting him, let him back in your bed after what he did to you" Harold yelled in to Blair's face, as Roman came running in.
""HAROLD! STOP!" roman yelled to his partner,
"No! Blair I didn't raise you to be like this!" Harold yelled again,
"dad-"
"Harold please stop-"
"no! I want him out now!"
"It was just a misunderstanding please daddy!" Blair said to her very livid father.
Chuck just stayed froze, he knew Harold was mad at him, but he didn't know this mad, the man was usually happy and easy going, this was totally unexpected.
"Misunderstanding? Misunder- Blair! You honestly believe the lies that come out of that-"
"why? We all believed yours!" Blair said into her father's face.
Her father relented back, shocked, he couldn't believe she would bring that up, but Blair was far from finished.
"I stayed there on the phone with you listening and believing ever single FUCKING lie you told me! I wanted to believe them, a big part of me knew, knew your secret, the secret you and mom have been whispering about for years!" tears were endlessly rolling down Blair's cheeks now.
Chuck starred at her like everyone else in the room shocked, as he tightened the sheet around his waist.
"You could have told me, but everyone around me knew including chuck!" Blair said spinning her head back at chuck then back to her father.
Harold starred at the boy, he knew? Before Blair?
"But don't worry daddy! He kept it a secret, just like everyone else!" Harold closed his eyes, "Blair bear-"
"NO! The worst part is that I didn't find out from you, I found out by overhearing a phone call with mom and grandma! I felt so much confusion and hurt, I thought no, this can't be real, my father is being the wonderful lawyer he is in Europe, not fucking his boyfriend!" Blair yelled then stormed her way to her bedroom door, but she stopped halfway and spun around to face her father who just stood there.
Blair sniffled "you know dad, I would have understood, maybe wouldn't be this angry if you would have told me...and don't think this is about how you treated chuck, though that was extremely disrespectful and just wrong, because he has been there for me way more than anyone in my life has and he didn't deserve that, this is about how I feel, hell how I've always felt, I just didn't want to tell you how I felt because I was afraid I would lose you, but now I really don't care..." she said with one last look and left the room.
They all heard her run down the stairs, chuck thanked his lucky stars that he didn't hear the door slam; she was still in the house somewhere, though because of its size, she could really be by herself all day, if she wanted.
"mon Cheri-" roman started touching his partners shoulder, Harold just instantly left the room then.
Roman sighed then looked at chuck, "he'll be sorry about that, he says she's just like her mother, but I see A lot of her father in her both stubborn like a mule and can be angry like a hornet..." he said in his heavy French accent.
Chuck just stared down. "you're welcome to stay in my eyes and Harold will see that soon, but you will have to wear some sort of wardrobe and I'm not talking about a sheet, not that I would mind, but I think Harold would... he said jokingly softly smiling at chuck then leaving Blair's room to chuck all himself.
****************************savechuckandblair savechuckandblair **************************
Chuck was now fully dressed as he made his way down the stairs, he saw his luggage tipped over, Harold probably kicked it, chuck was surprised he didn't throw it out into the snow. He picked it up then with a sigh and brought it up to Blair's room, thinking it might be better if it wasn't so obvious chuck was staying here, when Harold went through this main hall/entry way.
Coming back down stairs he went in search of Blair, when he went upstairs he saw her phone, so he couldn't call her to find out, and finding her could take some time, the ancient chateau was large enough that if Blair wanted she could be alone for at least a whole day if she pleased.
He took caution going through each room, and opening doors not wanting to accidentally running into Harold again, setting him off, and he only called Blair's name when he was absolutely sure he was alone.
He was going to check, the east wing of the house next when he came across a noise "what" it was clear that this part of the wing was still getting worked on, not like the main one where Blair's bedroom was, the noise sounded like it was coming from inside the wall, chuck looked at the wall, then lightly let his hand run along the ancient like carvings, it creaked open,
"what the?"
he thought as he opened the "wall-door" more to reveal a set of dusty wooden staircase. Chuck looked up and could see a crack of light coming from the very top of the stairs.
He looked behind him, and then looked back up the stairs when he heard the distinct tune of "moon river".
"Blair" chuck's mind played out as found himself climbing up the stairs.
Blair sniffled as she ran her small fingers over the keys, as they played the familiar tune. She honestly couldn't believe her father, who was that man, he charged into her room like he was some sort of animal. Sure she might have said some words to make it seem like chuck was the worst possible choice she made in her life ever, but she was angry, and she was Blair Waldorf.
She continued playing, when she thought she heard something, someone watching her. Chuck slightly opened the door, only for it to creek loudly, Blair her head spun towards the door.
"took you long enough." she said with little voice.
Chuck sauntered into the room, he looked around, "it's not like you gave me any clues..." he said to her thinking, 'why the hell would Blair be her
"this was used for the old war days." she said to chuck, who was looking around the room in confusion.
"huh" said turning, to Blair
"it was used to hide food, you know food storage? So that the soldiers couldn't take it..." she said scooting over in the tiny, piano bench as chuck set down beside her.
"they used to also hide people up here"
"people?"
"so that they couldn't find them, they sometimes used to hide the men and young boys up here so that they wouldn't be forced into the military" Blair explained to chuck
"why and how do you know that?" chuck said completely confused
"I was bored the first few days here, so I looked up the places' history and plus I wanted to get my mind off of things..." she said looking down, wanting to forget how she felt those weeks away from him.
Chuck leaned down and kissed her shoulder. "I'm sorry; again, I shouldn't have-"
"no you shouldn't but, let's try to move past it, we have bigger things to worry about." she said interrupting him "okay?" she said reaching up caressing chucks head.
Chuck lifted his head up from Blair's shoulder "okay." he said giving Blair a quick kiss. Blair smiled a small smile.
"also, an interesting thing I found out, while exploring the library is that, this place was the first, that they know of, to be soundproof, well the most soundproof you can get in the 1800s." she explained to him.
"is that why the piano, is here?" Blair nodded her head.
"the last heirs step mother hated music, so she banned everything musicals, but the heir's late father was a composer so he honored his father's life by playing piano. But when she banned it, he knew he had to do something, so he and the servants planned it out, one day when she traveled to town, they cleared out this room, and made it so all of the instruments were brought here, when the step mother came back she was pleased to find every useless machine gone, little did she know when she went to bed, the heir would with a few of the servants go up here, and play his father's favorites, until one day a servant who was loyal to the step mother, betrayed the heir and told her, she dragged him out to the front of the house, tied him up, then made him watch as she burned all the instruments, after that she whipped him, over and over again, until he literally died. The servants that night killed her in her sleep, overcome with sadness and anger. It wasn't until 3 months later that they found the piano, they found it odd that it was the piano that the heir and his father would play together, the very piano where the heir was taught piano, they all thought it was burned with the rest, but somehow this was left untouched, so that night when they left for their new houses they were assigned to, they told no one, leaving it here in memory of the boy."
Chuck listened intently to Blair. "that's terrible"
"he was only 13 years old..." Blair said trailing off "4 years younger than us, that's awful." chuck said putting his arm around Blair.
"as awful as it is, when I first found it, I just felt a sense of calmness, which of course was multiplied like by 10 when I played moon river..."
"of course..." he said as Blair cuddling into him more. Giggling.
"B?"
"hmm"
"I hate to kill this good energy going on, but I swear my asthma is acting up..."
"you don't have asthma."
"I know, but with all this dust..."
"shut up, you will not ruin my place of peace"
"how do you even walk in here barefoot?" Blair started to open her mouth then looked down at the floor, at her feet then back up to chuck." "I see your Point." she said to him, making a disgusted face.
Chuck made a knowing look back at her. "so let's get the hell out of here alread-"
"just one more song!" Blair said not at all ready to go back to her father.
"fine, one song that's it, then we go back!" Blair smiled and kissed him on the cheek. She put her hands on the piano keys.
Chuck smirked as he thought she would continue to play moon river, but was surprised to hear a new tune, another song that he knew Blair as well as himself liked, she continued playing, he smiled at her, she only liked it though more than likely because it was played in Sabrina, but chuck liked it because he was a fan of Louis Armstrong, one of the many things that made chuck and Blair, chuck and Blair, they liked to believe and wish they lived back in the golden years, the classic years before the 60s came along with long hair, sandals, taking all the class, the world once had with it.
Blair smiled to herself as she hummed to herself; chuck looked over at Blair as he started singing the beautiful, infamous lyrics.
~~~~Hold me close and hold me fast
The magic spell you cast This is la vie en rose
When you kiss me heaven sighs And though I close my eyes I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom
And when you speak...angels sing from above
Everyday words seem...to turn into love songs
Give your heart and soul to me
And life will always be La vie en rose~~~~
Blair was memorized, the song was even better when chuck sang it, she suddenly stopped playing.
"why'd you stop." he said sort of bummed that she stopped
"that is extremely sexy" Blair said taking her hands off of the keys onto chucks thighs.
"is it?" he said licking his lips,
"uh huh" Chuck smirked as Blair climbed onto his lap, as she started kissing his neck.
God he missed her he thought as she slid off her robe. As her hands found themselves making her way down towards his belt, he really did.
****************************savechuckandblair savechuckandblair **************************
"I think That was them." chuck said sitting up in alarm in Blair's bed.
"huh? No, it's can't be they always are at the main barn now, doing inventory for the vineyard now" Blair said lifting her head up towards chuck, lying down on her side of the bed.
"now would you please let me sleep, you wore me out up there."
"remember? I can't be responsible, Because I Didn't start it." he said smirking wrapping his arms around her once more, lacing her hands with his around her bump, but still on edge because of her father, he thought this nap they were taking he would have to sleep with one eye open, literally.
****************************savechuckandblair savechuckandblair **************************
Harold was pacing and couldn't focus, why, and more importantly who was he up there? Harold was never a violent person; he was loving, sweet, smiling man. He snapped, he knew it, but it wasn't what happened what was bothering Harold Waldorf, it was done and nothing he could do to take it back, it was the aftermath, he was scared of approaching.
"Harold, mon Chéri"...
"JUSTE NE PA!" Roman stayed back, and put his head down,
Harold breathed, "Roman, qui était là-haut..." Harold said finally stopped pacing, sitting down with his face in his hands, on a nearby couch.
Roman sighed, "you were...a concerned papa" roman said sitting down by his fiancé
Harold stifled a laugh, "I was a monster, I just, saw him, and I ...snapped, she's never going to forgive me."
Roman squeezed his shoulder, "she will; you're too much alike for her not too"
"That's what I'm afraid of, that's what I'm afraid of roman...and the things she said to me..."
roman kissed his partners temple, "maybe Blair, caught up in the moment, you know teenage girls, full of hormones and she's with child, making it 10 times worse..." roman said hoping to make his love crack a smile, even for a moment.
"No, it was just spilling out of her, like it was held in for a long time, I love you roman but perhaps, we could of gone another direction, with this whole thing, maybe if we did, Blair wouldn't be in the predicament she's in now..."
"hey now don't do that to yourself, yes maybe this should of happened another way, but there's no going back now, what's done is done, we just have to move on, keep living our life, and hope for the best, despite the actions we have taken in the past, and don't think for a second, that you're the reason, why she is pregnant, again, HORMONES..."
Harold laughed at his partner, and sighed "je t'amie Roman" roman smiled right back to his love "je t'amie Harold"
Roman climbed up the stairs arm n' arm with Harold. They saw the door cracked in Blair's room, as they walked by, couldn't resist looking in to see if Blair was back safe in her bed, or if she was half way back to the states.
Harold couldn't help his mouth twitching up at the scene. Roman being the hopeless romantic at heart smiled also at Blair and Chucks sleeping forms under the covers, clothed (thank god), with chuck safely holding onto Blair's baby bump.
Harold softly sighed as he reached out and quietly shut the door to his daughter's room; Roman was beaming, le sigh, young love…
