A/N. I'm sorry guys that I haven't updated this sooner but I had a lot on my plate this weekend and with my upcoming birthday tomorrow I had a lot of work around the house too. So please forgive for the wait and give me a review as b-day gift, will you?
„Aren't you just the most adorable thing in the world?" Blair cooed as she hold little Anastasia in her arms. Dorota's baby did always behave perfectly with her. Dorota wondered often how Blair did it.
"Dorota, you better watch that door because I may make up my mind and take this beautiful baby girl with me." Blair teased.
"OH no, Miss Blair. You go make your own baby. This is mine!" Dorota said as she reached for her daughter who started to fuss but her smile disappeared a second later when she realized what she just said." But not before finishing college and marriage of course." she said in a lecturing voice.
"Yeah, because you got married just before the labour started." Blair rolled her eyes but a smile came to her face. Dorota shrugged.
"How's Mr. Chuck doing?" she asked a second later.
"I wouldn't know." Blair snapped back. Much more harsh than she intended.
"You not talking again." Dorota stated.
"Dorota, please. He doesn't want me anymore so, yeah, I wouldn't know." Blair returned with some hope that her made would drop the theme already.
"Miss Blair you know that's not true. He loves you. But he just never had anyone to tell him how a relationship works." Blair defended Chuck once again. It wasn't that she wanted to push Blair into something but Blair wasn't thinking straight in her opinion right now.
"You're maybe right." Blair whispered.
"Meeeeweeee…" little Ana interrupted the adults' conversation.
"See, Ana agrees with mama." Dorota cooed to her baby who looked at her with huge blue eyes and started to smile softly then.
"You'll be a great mom, Dorota." Blair nodded.
"You can always come to me, Miss Blair. I'll always have an open door for you." Dorota responded.
"Thank you. And call me Blair already. I'm going to be the godmother of your daughter after all!" Blair exclaimed before she grabbed the baby again.
"Lily? Are you home?" Chuck called as he entered the penthouse.
"Here. Come, sit. We're having breakfast." Lily called.
Chuck greeted Rufus, Eric and Lily before sitting down next to her.
"Where's Serena?" Chuck asked.
"Off to somewhere with a new guy she met." Eric shrugged.
Chuck nodded. He'd hoped that she was probably with Blair right now so he'd could asked Serena how she was later.
"Hoped that she was with someone else?" Eric cocked an eyebrow.
"You're too clever for your own good, lil bro'". Chuck returned with a smile.
"So, how's Blair?" Lily said as she finally realized what the conversation was about.
"She's fine." Chuck returned nonchalant.
"You're back together?" Rufus fell with the door in the house. Surprisingly for Chuck, he neither had try to kill him for the Jenny incident nor tried to make Lily believe that Chuck was the devil. It was like a unspoken understanding of both men that they wouldn't mention it again.
"No." Chuck sighed.
"Did you two talk about your issues yet?" Lily interrogated.
"Yes we did. And we decided to give it time right now."
"The two of you decided that or did you decide that?" Eric said well knowingly.
"Can we please skip the topic now?" Chuck almost snapped but did his best to control himself.
"Sure." Rufus said before he started to tell about his latest song.
Lily took a good look at Chuck who stared at Rufus, pretended to be interested so he could avoid Lily's gaze.
Once they finished the eating, Rufus and Eric went upstairs to inspect Rufus newest guitar and left Lily and Chuck alone on the table.
"Listen, Chuck. I know and understand that you don't want to talk about what's going on with Blair but one word of advice. The longer you wait to get things sort out with her, the more space will get between the two of you. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about. So if you really don't want to be with her, fine. But if you do, then hurry up Chuck before it's too late."
Chuck nodded and rose from his chair. He kissed Lily on the cheek. "Thanks, Lily."
She smiled in return like a mother should. Chuck turned around and left. He was a man on a mission now after all.
Blair told the driver to stop at bake shop on the other side of the bridge when they left Queens so she could pick up some bread and then go to the park.
Once the ducks stood in rows around her, she giggled in excitement when she throw the bread down for them.
"One of these days, you'll be able to roll those ducks around like balls because you stuffed them so much ." Chuck said amused.
"Why am I not surprised." Blair rolled her eyes.
"Because you're smart as the devil. Now come and sit." Chuck whispered in her ear before he gave her a smack on her bottom and went over to the bench.
"CHUCK BASS!" Blair yelled and some of the ducks made a run as for their life.
"That's the name." Chuck smirked as he sat down and opened his picnic basket.
"Not funny!" Blair snapped as she took place beside him.
"It was for me." Chuck shrugged.
Blair gave him a glare and he chuckled.
"Get over it, Waldorf. Come on, I brought some lunch."
"I'm not really hungry." Blair said nonchalant.
"Blair." Chuck said in a warning tone.
"What?" Blair pouted.
"Just so you know. One of these days when you refuse to eat and I decide that you're too skinny for my taste, I'm going to kidnap you and feed you until you have seize ten. Then you've at least a reason to skip lunch." Chuck threatened.
"You're so irrational at times, Chuck Bass." Blair laughed at him although she know how serious he was.
"No you are. I really wonder what you'll do when you get pregnant." Chuck lectured her as he unwrapped a roasted chicken sandwich.
"Pregnant? Did you really just say that?" Blair wondered as she reached for an apple but Chuck stopped her hand and gave her a packet with some chocolate cake. Blair rolled her eyes but took it.
"Yes. What's the matter with that?" Chuck cocked an eyebrow.
"I'm just surprised to hearing you telling about kids. I thought you never wanted some." Blair stated. She gave him an interested look.
"Well, since that woman came back and I know that my spawns won't necessarily kill the woman I choose to have a family with, I think I can talk about that." Chuck told her but looked down though. He didn't want her to see the pain that talking about Elizabeth still made him.
"I'm glad to hear that you changed your mind, Chuck." Blair said genuinely as she reached for his hand and squeezed it softly for a second. Chuck smiled at her for a brief second before he came back to his senses and shrugged..
"It's crazy isn't it? Someone could think after all we've been through that we wanted to stay as far as we could from each other. Yet, we're sitting her and laugh." Chuck stated. Blair bit her bottom lip. He was right but she didn't really want to talk about that right now.
"SO I heard that Bass Ind. has a big ball this weekend?" Blair changed the topic quickly before their good mood went down the hill.
"You did get your invitation, right?" Chuck asked.
"Yes. So, who's the floozy of the week you're going to embarrass yourself with?" Blair joked. Both of them knew that it was only meant half funny.
"Oh, come on. What about you? Mr. Rugby-Is-A-Real-Men-Sport ." Chuck mimicked.
"Your companion is worse in 99.9% of the cases." Blair defended herself.
"Not true, Waldorf." Chuck said and shook his head. Both of them enjoyed the rather relaxed atmosphere.
"Yes it is. You're not capable of find yourself a good choice of date." Blair exclaimed.
"Care to make a little bet?" Chuck suggested with his significant smirk.
"You're not really suggesting the 'I bring a date for you, you bring one for me' game, do you?" Blair could see it in his eyes already.
"Why not. It was fun." Chuck returned.
"Tzzz. Fun for who? Really now, you have the most twisted taste of humor a human being can have." Blair said careless but regretted it shortly afterwards when she saw Chuck flinched.
"Chuck…"
"No, it's fine. So do you agree on the bet?" Chuck challenged her.
"Yes." Blair nodded with a smirk.
Both of them had a plan behind it and little did they know that those plans involved the very same center idea.
The last chapter on it's way. So tell me your thoughts on it so far, please.
