Chapter 8

The whole day went by as it was now 7:00 at night. Blair was just finishing up her make up and her hair as well before this party. It was a good thing that Monday was a holiday since this was happening on a Sunday night. She was nervous she was actually going to this with Chuck and a part of her was hoping that tonight he will finally admit his feelings to her since he has been holding it in for a long time. She was sitting in front of her mirror not being able to move right now. Her phone rang and heard a couple phone's ringing outside her window as she looked and saw it was another Gossip Girl blast

"This just in good girl J dressed is a slit gown walking though the streets of Manhattan is she finally turning into a Upper East Side Beauty"

Blair put her phone down on the table and shook her head. "That little Jenny Humphrey someone I'm going to have to destroy" she said to herself as she picked up her necklace and tried to put it on as she couldn't get the clasp. "Dorota" She shouted as she came running

"Yes Miss Blair" she said as she walked over towards her and handed her the necklace "Can you help me with this" she asked as she got up from her chair and moved her hair so Dorota could place it around her neck. She turned around and asked her how she looked. "You look beautiful miss Blair" she told her as Blair smiled at her and picked up her purse as she went to go meet Serena and Chuck.

Serena walked into the living room wearing a Ralph Lauren night dress as it was yellow and her shoes were gold looking. She loved this dress and wanted a reason to wear it to someplace special and it now looks like she got what she wanted to be able to wear it to the party tonight. She sat down on the couch as she waited for Dan who was coming to come pick her up, she saw Chuck walking out as his hair was combed and he was wearing a tux not a suit.

"wow Chuck I can't believe I'm saying this but you actually look..well like a man" she said to him. "You trying to impress Blair because I honestly never seen you in a tux before" she said to him.

"Just thought I would look nice" he said as she could smell the cologne on him, yeah he really wanted to make himself look nice alright and she could see how nervous he was seeing as he pounded down two glasses of scotch already.

"Chuck why are you so nervous. Your shaking a little bit and your trying to get drunk. It's not like your meeting Blair for the first time, unless your planning on telling her how you feel tonight" she said to him.

He actually wanted to hear her say it first, saying it was hard for him to admit how he felt about her. He heard the elevator bell ring as he thought it was Blair and then saw that it was just Dan taking a deep breath.

"whats with him" he asked as Serena looked over at him.

"he's nervous, he's going to the party with Blair tonight" she told him as Dan started to laugh a little bit and saw that she wasn't kidding.

"oh your serious. Blair and Chuck are going on a date together..wow" he said to himself surprised, he never thought that would happen. He remembered when he tried to help Blair on seducing Chuck awhile back on how they both couldn't tell each other how they felt and now I guess they decided that they want to make it known. "should we go, you look amazing by the way" he said to her.

"Thanks Dan but we got to wait for Blair she should be here soon" she turned as Chuck kept on drinking as she walked over towards him "ok you need to stop you don't want to go to this thing drunk" she said to him as she dragged him away from the bar and had him sit on the couch. She sat down on the chair as Dan sat down next to Chuck. He glanced over at Dan.

"Humphrey" he said to him as Dan nodded at him "Chuck" he said.

It was 8:00 and the party was just starting and Blair hasn't even gotten here yet. Serena txted Blair to see where she was waiting for her to respond. "Serena maybe we should go and Chuck can wait for Blair or else we are going to be late" he said to her as Serena looked over at Dan and just nodded thinking that maybe he was right about that.

"Go I can wait" he said as Dan and Serena looked at each other and left and head towards the party. Chuck looked at his watch wondering if Blair was even going to show up because she said she would be there at 7. He turned back towards the bar and grabbed himself another drink seeing his dad and Lily walking into the living room as he rolled his eyes seeing his dad.

"you look nice son don't embarrass your date now" he said to him. That was Bart's thing making Chuck feel bad about himself and he was always doing stuff like that to him. It was why he left Blair at the airport when they were suppose to go away together and now he felt like he was doing it again.

"Can you ever just mind your own business" he said to him as Bart looked back at him and walked over towards him.

"Don't say anything that you will regret now" he said to him as he turned back and walked over towards the kitchen where Lily was.

Chuck took his jacket and placed it on himself and decided to just leave. Whenever he was mad over something that had to do with Bart he just walks out and doesn't care where he was going. As soon as he left the building Blair walked in and totally missed Chuck as he walked out. She knew Serena was at the party and that Chuck was waiting for her as she got to her place and saw no one was here.

"Chuck..anyone here" she said out loud but no answer. Bart and Lily were upstairs in the bedroom now not knowing that she was here. She couldn't believe Chuck was blowing her off that was just like him. She looked at her phone and saw that he never even contacted her at all. She sighed as she just left the building. She couldn't go to the party without a date so she just decided that if she was all dressed up she would go out on her own. As soon as she got outside she stopped Tim just standing by the curve and went over towards him.

"Hey Tim" she said as he turned to her.

"Blair didn't think I would see you again" he said as he walked over towards her. "Listen I don't know if your doing anything right now, but you want to get something to eat with me" he asked her. Blair looked at him as she nodded and called over his limo. He opened the door for her as she got it. Chuck was standing by a corner and saw Blair get into the limo with Tim as he just had a sad look on his face.
