A/N : Father and daughter reunited :') Well, someone seems to want to interfere, any idea? Anyway, here is the new chapter in answer to your reviews! I just finished watching the last episode of Gossip Girl and yay! Blair finally realizing Louis may not be such a good prince! Is she going back to Chuck? I hope so! In the meantime, I also watched next episode's preview who will be fun, I guess. Chuck and Blair in therapy? ahah. :) Anyway, I hope you'll like this chapter :)

Spotted – Chuck Bass leading a young brunette through New York. Is the resemblance with a famous future ex-princess a coincidence? Time taught me not to trust them when it comes to King of Sins. XOXO, Gossip Girl.

Upper East Side, New York.

"So, how are you dealing with everything?" Damon asked Cornelia as they sat down in the restaurant he had brought her to. Cornelia smiled shyly at him, she wanted to talk to him, to tell everything her life had once been and was now but she had to keep it to herself – for now, at least. How could she know she could trust him?

"Well, it's amazing. Chuck is a great person, he showed me New York when we got out of the hospital, we spend hours talking about my life, his life, Blair, it's unbelievable. The only "bad thing", if I can say, is that Gossip Girl. She keeps gossiping about a relationship with Chuck, he's my father!" she said, not very loud so as not to be heard by the people eating near them.

"It's normal. Gossip Girl has always been focused on Chuck, Blair, Nate and Serena and even though we suspect she has the daughter the same age as Blake, Serena's daughter, who gossips about the kids at Constance, she will always seek gossips about them – and now, you. I bet you someone will recognize us and she'll talk about us tomorrow – or in two seconds from now." he laughed. She smiled, she didn't find it very funny. She had never been the popular girl, the one everyone was gossiping about and she didn't want to be that kind of girl.

"But when we'll reveal the secret -"

"Shhh. Don't talk about it. People could hear us. Let's talk about something more simple, something I'd love to hear about." he said, bending a little over the table to get closer to her.

"And that is?" she asked, smiling and bending a little too.

"You." he whispered. Her smile widened. She would have to go back to Paris soon, her plane would take off two days after that day and she wasn't ready to go back yet. She would have to fall back into the same routine, work, family, sleep, eat, work. No more couture shopping trip, no more brunches with socialites, no more intriguing.

"Well, I guess you know everything now. I'd rather you talk about yourself." she whispered back. Their mouths were dangerously close. They had spent a lot of time together those past two weeks. When she wasn't with Chuck, she was with him or Serena but the infinite legged blond woman was very busy and the lawyer was always available for her.

"The problem is... I think you know everything too." she laughed softly. They were both lying, both holding back. She didn't tell him about Ivan, they never talked about Eleanor and what she did, about her childhood or the things that made her suffer during her life. He wouldn't tell her about his long lost brother and the loss of the woman he loved more than anything, and the baby she was carrying. They were a bunch of pain, of losses, of secrets kept hidden like an old pirate's treasure.

And yet, they both wanted each other. There was a kind of electricity between the two of them, she wanted to kiss him, right here, right now – and so did he. But none of them would make the first step. They had kissed many before that night, some they didn't even know the name but it was different this time. They wanted it to be special, they felt like it.

Damon backed off and suddenly sighed. He knew what he had to do if he wanted her to open up to him, if he wanted to really get to know the woman behind the iron armor she was wearing. He had done it once, with Chuck. He had reached the man beneath the armor, it had been a hard path but it was worth it and he was sure she was her father's daughter.

"It's a lie. You don't know nothing. Let's go somewhere more intimate, I can take you to my place if you want where we could talk. I don't want anyone to hear what I have to say and I'm sure you wouldn't want people to hear what you might feel like saying after I'm done." he said. She stiffened when she heard the tone of his voice – he sounded so sad, so pained.

"Let's go, then." they stood up and she followed him to the limo Chuck had lent them. They didn't talk until they were sitting on his couch. There was some awkward feeling between them. She knew secrets were about to be revealed and if she didn't feel ready to give them away when she entered the restaurant, she felt ready then, her head laying on his chest as he was telling her everything.

Spotted – Chuck Bass's new protégé leaving a restaurant after two minutes with Bass Industries' lawyer. Is there some manipulation out there to take down the Empire? Only time will tell. XOXO, Gossip Girl.

"Now, you know. My younger brother disappeared three years ago, he was a Marine fighting for his country in Iraq. I can't stop missing him and I hope he'll come back someday but I don't have lots of faith in it. My wife and our baby died six years ago in a car crash. She was driving back from her parents' house in Boston when a drunk driver hit her." he stopped. He could hear her cries. She was crying for him, for his brother, his wife and his baby. Gosh, she was such a mess now. He held her tighter against him, feeling the tears stirring from his own eyes.

"I'm so – so sorry." she managed to say between her sobs. "I had no idea... My god, Damon, I can't imagine what you've been through all these years." she raised her eyes to look at him. She wanted to take away his pain, to help him deal with it.

"It's not your fault, Cornelia." he said. She put a hand to his cheek and stared at him. He was so gorgeous, even in pain. How could a woman not be attracted by those icy blue eyes?

"I swear I won't let anything hurt you again." she murmured before she tenderly kissed his lips. He kissed her back, fiercely, hardly as if to hurt her, to scare her enough to make her run away from him but she wouldn't. She wasn't scared at all by him and even if he was threatening her in every way possible, she wouldn't be. She trusted him now, he had bared his soul to her during the last hour and that was all she needed.

"I know," he whispered, breathing heavily as their lips separated, "and I think I'm falling for you, Cornelia."

She smiled at him and kissed him again, showing him he wasn't the only falling.

Two days later, Upper East Side.

"So the plan is : I go back to Paris, I spend like a week with my adoptive family, explaining them everything, I study and then you all come there and we go to Blair, right?" Cornelia asked.

"That's the plan." Serena confirmed. "Damon, is everything settled about Chuck's paternity?"

"Yep. Cornelia signed the papers, now we need Blair's signature and we will be able to announce it to the world." Damon said. He grabbed Cornelia's hand and squeezed it, knowing he wouldn't see her for at least a week. She squeezed his hand back, resisting the urge to look at him and kiss him.

"Everything's okay then. I think I should get going, my plane is in two hours and I don't want to miss it." Cornelia said.

"I come with you," Damon rushed to say. "you guys cannot accompany her or someone will suspect something. Gossip Girl is already on us."

"She's on me too." Chuck interrupted. "But I understand. I don't want Blair to read Gossip Girl and think I replaced her with her dead ringer!" He went to Cornelia, leaning a bit on his stick, to hug her. He had a daughter. He still couldn't believe it, he had an heir, a beautiful grown-up woman who seemed to be made to take his place at the top of Bass Industries. He would never have dared to dream about such an amazing thing. He had family – except Serena and the part of his family he didn't want to hear about ever again – and that was the best thing that had ever happened to him.

"I'm going to miss you," she said, looking Chuck in the eyes, "all of you." she added, turning to the others.

"We should get going, Cornelia." Damon said. She nodded and gave a warm hug to her father and then to all the ones crowded there to say goodbye. She still couldn't realize how much her life had changed – and was about to change. She had signed papers that made her Cornelia Bass – well, actually, she was Cornelia Bass-Dupont, as they agreed to show some respect to the family that had brought her up. Besides, when Blair signed the papers and if she agrees, she would add the Waldorf name to her. A very long name for an unusual girl, everyone would respect her as an heir to New York's monarchy. She would be on Fashion week's front rows, she would befriend with all the persons she saw on newspapers, she would... My God, what had she become? She was – to keep polite – a bitch. Cornelia smiled at that thought, she actually kind of liked it.

"What are you thinking about?" Damon asked her as the limo was almost arrived at the airport.

"I think I like that life, except one detail." Cornelia said, looking at the airport through the window.

"What's it?"

"Gossip Girl. I read posts from her about my parents. I hate her." she said, her voice hiding a barrel of anger and lust and revenge.

"I understand, but you cannot fight Gossip Girl." he said, almost laughing. She glared at him and her gaze froze his blood, she looked so terrifying, as if she was about to attack him.

"So you think. I'm going to take Gossip Girl down." She focused back on the airport and Damon stared at her. She was a Hell of a woman! He had heard about Blair from Chuck and even though he couldn't believe him according to what he heard or saw on TV, he believed him now. Cornelia had inherited fire from her mother – and her father.

"You know what? If someone can do that, it must be you." he whispered in her ear before kissing her on the cheek.

She turned around, smiling and cupped his face with her hands before kissing him almost savagely. She was going to freaking miss him but they knew that in the end, their reunion would be even better.

Spotted – The New Girl in town leaving. Did I scare her – or was it Big Bad Sinner's fault? Watch out, New Girl, if can't stand us, you can't be a part of this world. So, Farewell or, see you soon? XOXO, Gossip Girl.

The wait is ALMOST over guys! Next chapter (I haven't written it yet but if it's not in chapter 16, it'll be in chapter 17), you'll finally get Blair back to her true family and friends ;) Don't forget to leave me a review to tell me what you thought of that chapter :)

Nyah-Cullen.
