Chapter 3

What was she doing? It hadn't even been 48 hours, and she found someone else to be with. Maybe what we had wasn't so real to her after all. Chuck found himself thinking all these different thoughts and each one was like a steak through the heart. Maybe he was just jumping to conclusions. Just because she looked absolutely gorgeous with no heartbreak written on her face, and had someone buy her a drink, and left with that very person, didn't mean she was getting over him. Maybe there's some sort of misunderstanding. What was he thinking? Of course she was done. Then another thought hit Chuck. "I'm Chuck Bass, since when do I accept defeat? Especially when it involves Blair?" That's when he knew he had to get Blair back. He downed the rest of his drink with a new determination in his eyes. He stood up and left the bar in search of what was rightfully his. Blair Waldorf.

Blair and Drew had taken a walk through the park and were now seated on a bench in front of the pond. Drew had said it was one of his favourite places to just sit and think. Funny, it was Blair's to. Blair had a sense of longing for Drew. She had the need to wrap her arms around him and just hold him, but not in a loveable way. As a long lost friend. Especially after the story he had shared with her while they were walking. When Drew was about a year old, his mother put him up for adoption because she couldn't handle a child at the moment. Apparently, she was in the midst of building her career. Honestly, Blair hated that. A baby is a gift, not one that should be given away! The thought a lady could give away Drew, who was a simply amazing person, away. It was just wrong. From there, Drew had been in and out of foster homes. When he turned eighteen, last year, he had gotten a job in New York at the newspaper, bought an apartment and has been looking for his mother who lives somewhere in New York. He says he feels the need to see her. To sit down and talk to her about what happened. He thinks that she might have a reasonable explanation, and he wants to give her the chance to explain herself to him. Drew seemed like such a forgiving and loving person. If only she could be just as forgiving, and let Chuck explain himself to her. But why would she want to get close to him again, after all the hurt he put her through? Although it had been only a couple hours she had spent with Drew, Blair felt a special closeness to him. "Blair," Drew's voice brought her out of her train of thought. "Yes, sorry, what were you saying," she replied as she looked up at him. " I was asking if wanted to grab a coffee, you look tired, or do you want me to take you back home." Blair smiled at his caring thought. She didn't want to go home, not yet at least. She knew once she'd be alone, thoughts of him would come flooding back. "No no, I'm okay," she smiled reassuringly. Blair and Drew spent the rest of the night, talking, laughing, and enjoying the company of each other. Little did they know, a Gossip Girl blast would be around the corner, waiting to ruin a new found friendship.
