Hey all! So here's the last episode of Season 1. I tried to keep it short and sweet. Hope you guys enjoy it. Happy Readings! xoxo

Much 'I do' About Nothing

"Let's take it slow this time. Do it right," Chuck whispered softly to her as he pulled away from the consuming kiss that threatened to make him lose his resolve. It had been so long since he'd tasted her sweet lips, held her this close without fear of being rejected.

Blair smiled despite herself and stared up at Chuck in surprise, "Chuck Bass is a romantic. Who knew?" she finished sarcastically as she fell into step with the dance once more.

"Now you do. That's all that matters," Chuck whispered seductively close to her lips.

Blair smiled as she turned in his arms and began to guide him off the dance floor.

Chuck followed as Blair led them out of the wedding reception and smiled as she went straight for the elevator, turning and offering him a coquettish glance as she pressed and held on to the button.

"Is slow not an option for you?" Chuck groaned against her ear as he pressed his body against hers from behind. Wrapping his hands around her stomach, he swayed in a mesmerizing rhythm that lulled her into an erotic comfort.

"Is it really for you?" Blair breathed out hotly, the growing evidence of his arousal pressed against her backside wetting her even further. She could already feel the stickiness creaming her underwear, the heat her body was emanating from there causing her to moan involuntarily.

"Waldorf, you're so amazing you know that?" Chuck licked across her ear, causing another moan to escape from her lips as she felt the heat starting to spread all over her body.

The elevator doors opened as if on cue, Chuck sending a silent thanks to whoever had decided to send the elevator down and empty. The last thing he wanted was for Blair to be seen like this. She was for his eyes only... at least when she was like this.

"Let's go," he instructed as he began to guide her into the elevator and pressed her flat against the back wall. "You know you look so beautiful right now. You always look so beautiful. You're so fucking sexy I can hardly contain myself," Chuck growled as he rubbed himself against her and began kissing her neck and shoulders.

Blair ground her hips backwards as she struggled to press herself closer to his body, craving his touch, his warmth, his every inch of skin. "Chuck please I can't...."

Chuck chuckled huskily against her ear as he flipped her over and wrapped her in his arms. "Yes you can. You can do whatever I tell you to do. And I'm telling you to wait," Chuck growled out the order, feeling Blair melt in his arms.

The doors opened to the 18th floor, and the pair hurried out of the elevator, rushing over to Chuck's suite. As soon as the door was opened, Blair pushed Chuck up against it and attacked his mouth with her lips. "I give the orders now," she groaned out between kisses, eating away at his mouth with her mouth, teeth and tongue.

Chuck moaned from deep in his throat as his hands reached up and held on to her ribs, raising the weight of her breasts against his hands.

Their tongues melded together, neither willing to break away from the luscious contact of their lips. Chuck prodded deeper, tilting her head back in order to gain better access to the depths of her sweet mouth. Blair obeyed naturally, burying her hands in his hair and holding on fiercely as he took control of the kiss. The were struggling for air, their tongues clashing, biting and teasing each other until they moved away to begin removing their clothes.

"What are you wearing underneath this, huh?" Chuck asked as he lifted one of Blair's legs and hooked it around his waist. His hand traveled beneath her dress and found the start of her thong against her hip. Reaching further back, he splayed his hand across her bare bottom and dug his fingers into her skin. "You're a fucking tease," he said as he smiled down at her and kissed her soft lips quickly as they curved into a small smile.

Blair giggled against his throat as he began to slide her underwear off. As his hands traveled back up her legs, he caressed the inside of her thighs quickly before reaching around and cupping her ass once again.

"Chuck... forget taking it slow..." Blair breathed as she reached up to begin unbuttoning his jacket and shirt.

Ring...Ring...Ring...

Blair's hands stilled as Chuck's phone began to ring and vibrate between their bodies. "That's my ring for Bart. I should probably take this," Chuck moaned out as he reached inside his pocket and pulled out his phone.

Blair pouted pettishly as she reached down and placed her hand on his crotch, rubbing his erection beneath the layers of clothing. Chuck hissed out as he took hold of her hand with his free hand and growled out, "Hands were I can see them, Waldorf. Play fair."

Blair rolled her eyes but remained complacent.

"Father?...Yeah, I just had to get something from my room... Oh, well no. I was just on my way down..."

Blair crossed her arms under her breasts and sighed in frustration.

"OK. I'll be right there."

Blair glared in outrage as Chuck hung up the call and shrugged his shoulders. "Duty calls."

"Duty? What about your duty in fucking me?" Blair demanded as she placed her hands on her hips.

Chuck let out a loud laugh as he stared down at Blair's enraged eyes and tense body. "Maybe there's a reason why we were interrupted. Building up the anticipation can be a good thing," Chuck soothed as he caressed her cheek and placed another quick kiss across her lips.

Blair shook her head as she began fixing her hair and dress. Chuck turned and opened the door.

"Anticipation...as if I haven't been waiting months. Jerk!" Blair mumbled to herself as she followed Chuck out the room, underwear forgotten in her haste to catch up.

"Come to Tuscany with me," Chuck breathed softly as Blair snuggled beside him on her couch, watching Breakfast at Tiffany's much to his dismay.

Blair pushed away from her comfortable position pressed against him and looked at him in surprise. That had been beyond sudden and unexpected. She was completely blindsided by his request. Because it wasn't as if he were really asking, he was merely stating it.

"Excuse me?" Blair asked, unsure if she had heard him correctly. Well that was a lie. She had heard him. She just needed him to repeat it, just to make sure she wasn't hallucinating or anything of the sort.

"Tuscany. Come with me. I won't take no for an answer," Chuck said with a sly smirk on his face as he turned to face her completely.

Blair sat there, looking taken aback and a bit confused. "I...I don't know what to say."

"We leave in three days."

"You've planned this already. Didn't you think I should know sooner?" Blair asked as she scrambled to her feet, the movie long forgotten and her entire focus on the man sitting before her. The man that she had been seeing consistently for the past couple of days but still had no real idea where they stood. It was an elusive subject for them.

"I just decided today. I know you told me you were going to France, so I figured we can spend a few days there before you head out to your father's chateau."

"Just the two of us?" Blair asked nervously, taking a seat next to him but not daring to look him in his face.

"Yes. Why is that a problem?" Chuck asked, nerves getting the best of him as well. This was definitely not the reaction he was expecting.

"No. No. Not at all. I just...this is so unexpected."

"We can take some time. Be alone. Enjoy each other's company. And of course we'll sightsee and enjoy Italy."

Blair remained silent for a while before she finally turned to face him once more. "Are you sure?"

"I wouldn't be asking you if I wasn't. This could be the perfect opportunity for us to... well to reacquaint ourselves with each other and enjoy each other's company."

Blair smiled timidly as she leaned closer and placed a quick kiss on his lips. "Sounds wonderful."

"Oh sorry Serena, I can't meet up today. I'm meeting Chuck in an hour. We're going to have lunch and then I'm going to help him pack for our trip tomorrow," Blair spoke into the phone hurriedly as she ran around her room trying to find the right pair of shoes to go with her dress. "I can probably see you at your house once I'm finished helping Chuck out."

"Uhh...well I don't know how up for anything you'll be after you get out of 'helping Chuck pack' in his room," Serena answered sarcastically, Blair practically hearing the air quotes on the other end of the line.

"Serena... It's not like that. We haven't... well there hasn't been any..."

"No sex?" Serena squealed out in shock, causing Blair's ear drum to shake at the intensity of her pitch.

"God Serena. Volume! How many times do I have to remind you?" Blair scolded as she switched the phone from one ear to the other.

"Sorry, B. It's just...I can't believe the notorious Chuck Bass hasn't... well that he hasn't made a move on you yet. Not that I want to think about it. But...well you know," Serena struggled to get out.

"Yeah. I know. Believe me," Blair sighed in frustration as she found her shoes and plopped herself down on the bed.

"Aww, B. What's wrong? Is he not putting out?" Serena teased, glad she was no where near Blair at the moment or she feared those would have been the last words she would have spoken on this earth.

"Shut up, S. And I'll have you know, Chuck's being a perfect gentleman. It's not like we haven't done...stuff-"

"No details!" Serena was quick to interject.

Blair smiled. "But we just haven't gone all the way. He wanted to take things slow. And I respect him for it." She honestly did. He was so different with her. She genuinely believed he cared.

"I see. Well I'm sure this trip in Tuscany will change all that. You'll go to France nice and satisfied. He'll come to NY and wait anxiously for those two weeks that you are away. I'll make sure to buy myself some earplugs for when you get back. I don't want to hear the symphony coming out of his room."

"Serena!"

"Bye Blair!"

Blair hung up her phone and smiled to herself.

This trip was going to change everything. And it surprised her that for once she wasn't afraid to consider that it would be with Chuck Bass.

"You haven't even started packing!?" Blair asked in horror as she walked into Chuck's room and found his luggage still neatly stored in the closet.

Chuck stared at her in confusion and nodded his head. "You're helping me pack. Remember?" he asked, stating the obvious.

Blair scowled at his tone and turned back into the closet. "I know, but still. I thought I would be adding the finishing touches. You know like fitting sixty pounds of clothes onto a carry-on."

Chuck grinned as he began pulling the luggage out of his closet. "It's a package deal, Waldorf. Normally I have the servants take care of this. But since you were so insistent..." Chuck trailed off as he slapped her ass sharply and pulled her closer to him.

"I didn't know exactly what I was agreeing to," Blair said softly as the nearness to his body was making it difficult for her to concentrate.

Chuck grinned as he lowered his mouth to hers and kissed her passionately, dropping the bag in his hand and wrapping his arms around her.

"Is anyone home?" Blair pulled away from his mouth and asked hurriedly.

Chuck smirked. "Yes. But they know not to disturb."

"I'm sure they've had to learn that the hard way," Blair scoffed as she dug her nails a little deeper into his back.

"Shut up and kiss me."

Blair smiled despite herself and reached on tiptoes to meet his lips.

Chuck hauled her weight in his arms and carried her over to the couch centered in his room. Straddling her above him, he adjusted them so that she could rub herself against him undeterred.

Knock...Knock...Knock...

"You've got to be kidding me!" Blair growled as she pulled herself off of him and went straight for the door.

Pulling the door open, she saw Serena standing on the other side smiling innocently with her hands clasped before her like a small child. "Hey, B. My mom just wanted me to let you guys know that dinner will be served soon."

Blair smiled politely and nodded. "Thanks, Serena. A lot."

Serena squinted and glimpsed over Blair's head to catch sight of Chuck standing awkwardly from the couch and adjusting himself. "Oh. Oh! Oh, I'm sorry guys. I didn't know..."

"Of course. How would you?" Blair said frustrated. "It's OK, S. We'll be there soon."

Serena nodded and then waved at Chuck. "Sorry," she smiled as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Sis. Always a pleasure," Chuck walked towards the door and shut it unceremoniously in her face. "Fucking Van der Woodsen."

Blair burst out into a fit of giggles and went to work at packing his bags.

OK guys so that was a wrap for Season 1. I feel like a director finishing up a grand production! LOL. Well, it was a lot of fun working on this Season. I hope I lived up to the characters and the situations that they came across this Season. Surely I'll find some fun stuff to write for Season 2, but trust me I am not looking forward to all the C/B angst in the later episodes. OK, well let me know what you thought. Reviews=Love. xoxo
