A/N: I'm SO sorry that it took me like forever to update this. But somehow I got a serious block. I know it's not very much, but I hope you'll be so kind and review. Let me know how you liked it and what you want to see coming up next?!
„Serena, wait!" Blair shouted for the probably hundred times since they left the property. Serena didn't stop. She just kept running. After a mile or two (which felt for Blair like a thousand or two, since she wasn't used to sports) in the heat of the noon sun, Serena stopped on the beach.
"Finish running already?" Blair gasped as she held her sides. Stitch was an evil thing! "Owe." Blair moaned.
"You all right?" Serena asked as she heard Blair's gasps and whining about the stitch. Blair nodded and stood up straight again.
"Serena, what happened?" Blair asked gently.
"You heard. What's there more to explain." Serena snapped back.
"Stop playing the bitch, Serena. I'm here to help you!" Blair squealed.
"That didn't stopped you when you thought you're pregnant!" Serena squealed in return.
"Yes, but luckily I wasn't. Are you sure you are?" Blair tried to calm her down. Arguing wasn't going to help.
"No. I miss my period though." Serena admitted.
"For how long?"
"Today's a week over time." Serena said after a while.
"A WEEK!" Blair snapped. "That's nothing! Just think of the permanent stress we had the last weeks! Let's go get a test!"
Serena starred at her. She was right. She shouldn't have told Nate and Eric. But now the jig was up.
"Not yet. Let's sit over there under some palms and enjoy the beach a bit. Please." Serena said. Blair lifted an eyebrow at her. "Pretty please?"
Blair gave her a small smile and nodded. Serena took her hand and pulled her along with her.
"Well, Nathaniel. I need to say I didn't see it NOT coming. Of course you and Blondie would be teenage parents. Who else if not you." Chuck teased. Chuck would never admit it but he loves the drama. The misery of other people really gave him joy sometimes. But only as long as he could fix it again. That was his way of repayment for the amusement that the predicament of the other people gave him. He helped them to get out of it. This worked for him in two ways. First he didn't have such a bad conscience and second they owed Chuck Bass one. And that gave him a very important power. A favor to Chuck Bass meant that he could come any time to collect.
"Chuck, would you do me a favor? Just shut the f*** up. You don't know anything about this." Nate gave back as they entered the house and walked in the living room.
"Oh no? I bet I know it much better than you think." Chuck returned.
"You're right. How would you not. I bet you have a labor for paternity tests on speed dial. By the amount of woman you laid there has to be a child or two." Nate chuckled evil. He hated it when Chuck teased him this way and now he'd get what he'd deserved.
"Why, Nate, probably YOU should add them on speed dial because it wasn't one of my whores who was afraid of being pregnant last time but one of yours." Chuck snapped back. As soon as she spelled it, he regretted it.
"What?" Nate rose from the couch. "Blair is pregnant too? But the cotillion was four months ago! Who says it's not yours?!" Nate pointed at him. Nate was beyond confused. Too much information for one day!
"Nate, calm down. She's not. But she thought she was. And if she had been it would have been yours because I handle my business." Chuck replied.
"Why didn't she tell me?" Nate said. "She told me she's on pill. I should have known better. It's Blair after all." he said before thinking.
"Probably you should have spent some money in condoms, Archibald. And don't you talk about my girlfriend like that ever again. EVER." Chuck spat out angrily.
"I'm sorry, man. This wasn't meant to be an offense. But we all know Blair's happy bubble thinking." Nate tried to defend himself.
Chuck gulped. It was true. Every time something didn't worked out the way Blair wanted, she pretended that there was nothing wrong. "Let's just change the topic back to the van der Woodsen- Vanderbilt Baby."
"Our parents are going to kill me." Nate said absent-mind.
"Serena, do you remember the first time my mother brought us to the ballet classes?" Blair asked as she sat next to her best friend on the beautiful beach and just watching the ocean.
"How could I not? My mother just left me again at your house to take off to god knows where with god knows who and I broke my arm in the very first one when I fell in this commode." Serena chuckled a bit on this memory. "I always had two left feet."
Blair nodded absent mind. Her eyes locked on the ocean.
"Why do you ask?" Serena said softly to her after a while.
"I was quite good in ballett. The teacher said that to her. Though, she never brought me there again." Blair explained quietly.
"I didn't know that. Eleanor said you didn't like it there." Serena whispered.
"Of course she told you this. When she couldn't compare her daughter with Lily's the effort wasn't worth it." Blair admitted. It could have sounding bitter but Blair just rationalized it.
"Let's go home." Serena suggested and Blair nodded.
"Yeah. I have to kick Archibald's ass for being such a douche bag earlier." Blair said and Serena chuckled.
Nate had excused himself and left Eric and Chuck alone in the living room.
"Why, aren't we a happy little family, huh?" Chuck teased.
"How can you possible enjoying this?" Eric asked in disbelief.
Chuck shrugged and smirked. "In some pathetic way, their misery gives me joy."
"You're such a nice guy, Chuck. Everybody HAS to love you." Eric mentioned sarcastically.
"Thanks, little Brother." Chuck smirked in return.
Blair opened the front door and pulled Serena with her.
"Honey, we're home!" she called out in the empty home. It made her and Serena giggling. There was also some chuckling from the living room. Blair headed to it, still Serena's hand in hers.
"Here you are." Blair greeted the two boys.
"No, here YOU are." Chuck said as she rose and greeted Blair with a butterfly kiss on the lips.
"So, Sis, please tell me when Blair and I happen to get a godchild?" Chuck smirked.
"First of all: No one who tells about himself would make YOU a godfather Chuck. And second: I don't know." Serena replied.
"She doesn't even know if there will be a child at all." Blair added.
Eric frowned in best Lily manner and Chuck laughed loud.
"What? You brought Archibald the shock of his life and aren't even sure? You rock, Sis!" Chuck chuckled. Blair slapped him on the shoulder.
"Ow! Not fair, Waldorf!"
"You know what? You guys just can joke a bit more about it. I'm gonna take a nap." Serena turned around and run upstairs.
Chuck was now holding Blair's wrists to stop her from slapping him.
"You know, you were right Chuck. Just like the Brady family." Eric mentioned the scene sarcastically.
Serena threw the door open. Annoyed by anything and anyone. She recognized the person lying on the bed a moment too late to just slip out of the room again.
"Hey." he greeted her. Surprised.
"Hey." Serena replied merely.
There was an awkward moment of silence.
"Where have you been?" Nate asked to start a conversation.
"On the beach with Blair." Serena returned nonchalant. She wasn't in the mood to discuss it right now.
"So, can we talk about this?"
"Nate, I'm not even sure yet. Can we avoid it until we know?"
"What do you mean 'you're not sure'"? Nate asked confused as he stood up.
"I mean what I said. I. Am. Not. Sure. If. I. Pregnant. At. All." Serena pointed.
"Maybe it's time to take a test then?" Nate asked rather angry.
"Oh, genius! Thank god that we have you here to tell me that!" Serena hissed in return.
Nate fight an inner battle. Should he continue the argue or stop the childish behavior and calm down.
For once in a long time, he made the right decision. "Okay let's not argue. We're going to buy a test, okay?"
"We? We as in you and I?" Serena asked surprised.
"Yes. This is our mess. Let's get through this together. I'm honestly not in the mood right now for Chuck's smarmy comments or Blair's know-all manner. So, yes, WE as in you and I if that's okay?"
"Of course it is. Let's go." Serena nodded and Nate took her hand, leading her downstairs.
They found Blair and Chuck making out one couch and Eric trying to read a book. Chuck and Blair didn't bother to stop their little session when Serena and Nate entered the room.
"What are you reading, Eric?" Serena took a lame excuse to starting a conversation.
"It's called 'How to survive this living hell my siblings created for me' ." Eric replied nonchalant.
Chuck chuckled while kissing Blair and she pulled away immediately.
"Chuck Bass! Don't you dare to spending your surrounding more attention than me in this very situation we just were." Blair hissed.
"Well, my dear, you did obviously the same. Or else you wouldn't know why I chuckled." Chuck returned amused.
"I didn't not! I ignored them. I just knew you wouldn't chuckle about me!" Blair snapped.
"Sure about that?" Chuck chuckled in returned.
Blair stood up and headed to the door before you left the room, she turned around and focused Chuck. "You know, Chuck Bass, sometimes I really hate you." she said with perfect red pouting lips. She didn't mean to pout but she couldn't help it either. She finally left the room and walked outside in the garden.
"Another part of 'Our lovely Blair' show." Eric commented giggling but shut up when Chuck shoot him a death glare.
Chuck sighed and decided it would be better to follow her now before she had time to get really upset.
"Chuck, wait. We need some money. We're going to buy a test." Nate stopped his friend.
"Well, you know where it is. Code is Blair's birthday." Chuck returned before he get out and walked towards Blair.
"What was Blair's birthday again?" Nate asked.
"Oh Nate, really? You were her boyfriend for ten years!" Serena snapped before she made her way down in the basement herself.
"Yeah, just be all mean, upset or just heinous with me. I deserve it." Nate was pouting by now.
"You know, maybe I should start to drink to survive this." Eric summarized with a serious face.
Nate blushed. He totally forgot that Eric was still there. Now he felt more like an idiot than before.
"Come on, gorgeous. We need to get ready for our first job!" Chuck said as he walked to Blair.
"More than two and a half hours." Blair hissed.
Chuck frowned. Enough was enough.
"You know, Blair. Cher called, she wants her Diva Allures back." he said angrily.
"Oh yeah? That's funny because Al Bundy called and said you shouldn't use his way of treating a woman with one you're not married to." she replied angrily in return.
Chuck chuckled. He had to admit that she was always able to fire back. When she turned around and walked towards the house he had nothing left to do but follow her. This was the moment he realized: Living with her could never be boring.
