"What am I doing? I love her. I love her… I love her"

A/N: This is the final chapter that I have re-done and made better hopefully. Enjoy and please review after reading :)

Blair woke up on Monday morning feeling less numb than she had previously. She had had time to think things through after Nate came to see her and after spending the evening with Dorota, she felt as if she had to try and get back to normal so today was going to be that day.

Blair had just spent the morning with Serena before she left for Europe. Serena could still tell Blair was miserable without Chuck but she resisted bringing up his name in case Blair felt uncomfortable, so she kept as far away from that subject as she could.

Blair had made her way to lunch where her minions were meeting to crown the new queen of Constance but Blair had other ideas. She was the reining Queen which meant she was to crown the new Queen and she had decided it was going to be Jenny the day of Graduation.

As Blair approached her minions, she saw Penelope about to hand the crown over. Blair immediately took control as usual and confronted them with Jenny close by.

"I'll take that thank you…" Blair stated as she snatched the head band from the girl.

"What are you doing here?" Penelope questioned Blair with annoyance in her voice.

"What I should have done months ago. In about five seconds you phones are all going to go off with the latest gossip girl blast…" All the girls' phone's beeped with the blast.

"Oh, she is nothing if not punctual, allow me. Remember all those secrets Jenny unmasked when she was trying to project you, Nelly? Well now the world knows them too, so looks like we have a winner…now if you don't mind", Blair quickly passed Jenny the crown with a satisfied grin.

Penelope immediately cut in.

"How can you do this, letting some girl from Brooklyn carry on our legacy?"

"Haven't you ever heard of a foreign queen? Beside her dad is marrying Lilly Bass so I think that makes her richer than, all of you!" Blair then signalled with her hand for the minions to move over on the couch to make room for the new Queen.

The minions just do as they are told in defeat.

Blair just laughed and continued, "Not enough!"

With a sigh of relief Blair walked away, completely satisfied with her victory.

Chuck had arrived from the airport not long before noon and he was on his way to intercept Blair after she had finished crowing the next queen. After landing Chuck went straight to the Palace to get changed. He had bumped into Serena who was extremely surprised yet relieved to see him. She had told him about Blair's plans for the day and how she was missing him. Part of him was relieved that she still missed him but others parts felt guilt for what he had done to her but it was too late to turn back the clock now, he had to do what was right to fix his mess.

He was now stood outside his limo leaning against it, waiting for the moment of truth. He felt like running away but his body wouldn't let him move. He was terrified that she would reject him like he had done to her, but he still had to try.

As he saw her coming towards him in the distance, his heart started to pound. She was dressed immaculate as usual, wearing a green coat that went to her mid-thigh over what looked to be a gold dress complemented nicely with white tights, yellow heels, a gold headband and a yellow purse. Her hair was in her natural loose curls which Chuck loved. Her hips were swaying as she moved along the side walk, she looked so beautiful and Chuck wondered right then why he ever left such an amazing person. She really was Blair Waldorf, she was perfect.

Blair had not noticed him until she came closer to the limo; she instantly slowed down and walked cautiously towards him. She knew it was him as soon as she glanced his way, her heart fluttered as he looked at her and she felt those butterflies. She wanted to walk straight past but every bone in her body pushed her towards him, it was like they were magnetic.

As she approached she looked him up and down to see if there were any changes, there wasn't, just the handsome man she had always loved. He was dresses smart as usual but this time he had no bow tie or tie. He was dressed in a dark blue suit with pale blue shirt and trousers, in his hands where a bouquet of Blair favourite flowers, Peonies and other wrapped gifts.

As she stepped closer to him, he thought his heart would burst out of his chest, it was now.

Blair finally stopped in front of Chuck; she couldn't wait any longer to hear his voice, so she spoke.

"Why aren't you in Europe?" Blair said bluntly and waited for a reply.

Chuck was now ready to make his move; he pushed himself off the limo and stood directly in front of Blair.

"I was, in Paris, but only to get your favourite macaroons from Pierre Hermé's", Chuck answered confidently, and after all, he was still Chuck Bass!

Blair looked at him and then the gift skeptically before taking the blue box out of his hands.

"And Germany?" She questioned again with slight confusion.

"To pick up your favourite falke stockings…you know how I adore them", Chuck said with the tiniest smile.

"What are you doing here then?" Blair persisted with yet another question she wanted answered.

Chuck didn't even have to think of a response, he knew the answer a long time ago.

"You were right; I was a coward running away again. Everywhere I went, you caught up with me. So I had to come back", He could do nothing else but be honest.

Blair wanted to jump of him right then and there and never let go but she couldn't, she needed to make her point and at the end of the day he still left and he had lost some of her trust. Part of her felt that was happening was too good to be true and she wanted to be careful and protect herself from the hurt in case it was all a dream and any minute she was going to wake up.

"I want to believe you, but I can't. You've hurt me too many times", as soon as she said it, she regretted it and looked down to the floor, she couldn't look him in the eye, not just yet.

Chuck expected no less, he had hurt her and she had every right to be mad, but now he could only respond with the truth, he had to fight for her.

"You can believe me this time", he said with assurance in his voice.

Blair was quite surprised by this but knew she had to take a risk if she wanted to be with him; she now only needed a few more words from Chuck, the only words.

"Oh? …That's it?" She asked nervously not knowing if he had a response she wanted to hear.

Blair looked into Chuck's eyes and she could see the man she loved staring right back at her, she needed to see him, because before he left, when she looked into his eyes, he wasn't there.

Chuck paused for a moment while a small smile graced his feature…

"I love you too", he announced.

He had finally done it, Blair looked at him for a few short seconds to make sure what was happening was real. That's when it sunk in and she attacked his lips with hers. Chuck lips parted to accept Blair tongue as they explored each others mouth, it had been too long since they had been together and it felt so perfect.

Chuck was so relieved, she hadn't rejected him and as they kissed the fluttering in his stomach began again. So far, this was the best day of Chuck's life. Someone loved him and that, he never thought possible.

Chuck didn't ever want to let go and as they continued in a passionate yet soft kiss, they moved so Chuck once again had his back in the direction of the limo.

When they finally broke apart for air, Blair looked deep into the eyes of the man she loved and dared to ask another question she definitely knew the answer to…

"But can you say it twice?" Blair and Chuck both giggled and continued kissing.

But it wasn't long before they were interrupted again by Blair.

"No, I'm serious, say it twice", she said quickly before kissing him again.

Blair felt like she would melt, Chuck was holding her so close by the waist and his kisses were sweet and genuine. She loved his lips, they fit perfectly into hers, just like their bodies, they where made for each other.

Chuck knew Blair's previous question was not rhetorical so he spoke between kisses.

"I love you" [kiss] "I love you" [kiss] "there's three" [kiss] "four" [kiss] "I love you".

After the pair finally broke the long reunited kiss, they just stared into each others eyes with huge grins on their faces. Chuck then placed his hands on each side of her face and pulled her in to kiss her on the forehead. Blair just closed her eyes and inhaled his scent as he let his lips linger. He continued to place small chaste kisses all over her. Her forehead, her temples, her eyelids, her nose, her cheeks, he lips and finally her neck. He was slow and worshiped every little piece of her.

"I love you so much, never let me go Chuck", Blair said quietly after he had finished kissing her.

Chuck replied softly, "Never".

They stood for a while, just being with each other. A week had been too long and Chuck and he couldn't wait any longer to be with her as he helped her into the limo, making their way to somewhere more private.

As soon as they arrived at the hotel, they proceeded straight to the elevator, hand in hand. Blair couldn't believe Chuck Bass was a hand holder but it felt so natural when he reached for her hand as she got out of the limo and never let go.

Chuck hadn't even realized they were still holding hands until they were rushing along the lobby with Blair trying to keep up in her heels. The funny thing was, Chuck didn't mind, it felt safe and he rather enjoyed the look he got off people as they made their way to the elevator. He got a few winks and nods from random men and old ladies who were just passing.

Once in the elevator, they just stood in silence, still holding hands and every so often, they would catch each other staring at one another. They just grinned and held onto each other more tightly.

When the elevator finally arrived at the suite Chuck had arrange, he could no longer wait and the silence was killing him. So he took action, before Blair knew what was going on, Chuck grabbed her and carried her bridal-style into the suite.

"Chuck! What are you-", Blair shrieked but was cut off by Chuck lips crashing into hers, she didn't protest, instead accepting his tongue as it slipped between her lips. Before she knew it, Chuck had made his way to the bedroom and placed her carefully on the huge bed placing himself above her, absorbing her beauty that laid before him.

Chuck looked into Blair's deep brown doe eyes and saw the woman he loved. Not her bitchiness, not her false pretence of kindness, he saw the happy Blair. His Blair.

It had been too long and he had missed their contact, the fireworks, the passion.

"Blair…I-", Chuck was cut off by Blair's finger to his lips.

"It's ok, you're here now and I need you", Blair reassured the man she loved as he looked deep into her eyes.

They then resumed the previous activities and before they knew it, they were laid naked on the bed, Chuck hovering over her waiting at her entrance.

Blair had her arms laced around Chuck's neck, caressing it and stroking his hair gently. Only Blair was allowed to touch Chuck's hair as only Chuck was allowed to touch Blair's neck, her soft spot.

Chuck interrupted the silence.

"Are you sure?" He asked Blair who grinned back at him with the memory of the night at Victrola indented into her memory.

Blair then pushed Chuck off her small frame and switched positions so she was now on top of Chuck. Her bare breasts pressed against Chuck muscular hairy chest. She put her hand on both side of his face while stroking her thumps along his soft lips.

Chuck had his arms wrapped protectively around her petit waist and every so often his fingers would trail along her small perfect bottom and along the bottom of her back. Her skin was flawless, yet another reason he loved her.

"Love makes everything simple…we love each other and that's all we need…" She trailed off quietly before Chuck responded.

"I am sorry…I'm not going anywhere. I love you…" Chuck admitted calmly.

"I forgave you the minute I saw you waiting for me…you're not a coward, you're the bravest man I know…thank you", Blair spoke without breaking eye contact, she meant every word.

Chuck smiled softly as her words sunk in.

"Thank you for what?"

"For being you…for loving me…and for coming back", she said honestly.

"Thank you for saving me…" Chuck blushed slightly at his confession.

Blair just giggled a little and kissed his noise. She then looked deep into his dark brown eyes.

"Yes…" Blair answered.

Chuck frowned at her word, not understanding what she meant,

"Wha-", Chuck was about to say before he was cut off by Blair's soft lips against his.

Straight away Chuck understood, smirking the infamous Chuck Bass smirk against her mouth; Blair picked up on it and giggled into his kisses. Chuck then rolled them over so he was once again on top and without warning, his hard member slipped into her hot, wet centre.

"I love you", they both said in unison.

It was slow and passionate, it was perfect… it was Chuck and Blair, Blair and Chuck.

That afternoon, Blair and Chuck stayed in bed all day, they had lost count the amount of times they had made love but that didn't matter, they were together.
