Disclaimer: I do not own anyone or anything from Gossip Girl because if I did Chuck and Blair would be together obviously!
I will admit that after the other night when I met Blair Waldorf at Victrola, I had become obsessed with knowing more about her. She was the first person who had ever been able to turn me down and shake off my glamour. I needed to know how she had done it in the first place so when Monday rolled around and I finally got to school I immediately looked for her and low and behold I found her on the steps with what I assumed to her posse surrounding her. Nathaniel was nowhere to be found and I figured that he was running late since he was not a very organized person in my opinion.
As I sat in my limo watching her interact with the other girls I quickly learned that high school had a hierarchy and at this particular school the brunette girl friend of Nate Archibald happened to be the queen and soon to be step sister was her second. Well this was good for me because Serena had such a weak mind that it would be easy to get the information I wanted from her the next time I fed from her. Soon I would have all the information on Blair Waldorf that I needed, though I was not sure what I would do with said information yet. I suppose it depended on how she continued to treat me because we could be allies or we could be enemies it would be up to her obviously and if she was smart then she would not want Chuck Bass as an enemy.
After watching the queen of Constance for about five minutes I decided now would be as good a time as any to make my presence known. Pushing my sunglasses down over my eyes I opened the limo door and put my left leg out and on to the ground before getting the rest of the way out. I could feel all eyes on me from students and teachers alike as I smirked. People couldn't help, but be drawn to me because of what I am. It had the same effect as a bee to honey or a dog to fire hydrant. When I took a step a towards the direction of the steps in front of the building the whispers started and I heard them all as if they were being hollered in to my ear.
'Who is that?'
'I heard that he was expelled from his last school for deviant behavior.'
'I wonder if he could get me a date with Serena since his dad is screwing her mom.'
'Wow I think Nate has competition when it comes to being king. I wonder if he would be interested in having I as a queen.'
'Is there anything about him on Gossip Girl?'
Ah yes, Gossip Girl. I had heard a lot about this sight even though I had not bothered to check it out yet. Apparently the girl who ran it knew everything about everyone. Maybe I would have to check it out and see what I could find out Blair. She had to have secrets just like anyone else and if I liked anything other than a good time then it would have to be secrets and what they could do for me. Even in the vampire world secrets could be used as a weapon and I had learned to use them to my advantage to get what I wanted. Georgina and I used to have a habit of playing this game where we would choose a target and see who could get the deadly secret from the target. Usually I would win though on occasion Georgina had been known use her feminine charms to get the juicier gossip before I had a chance to work my Bass magic.
Shaking off memories of home I made my over to the steps and stood in front of the girls causing my shadow to interrupt whatever my future either friend or enemy happened to be reading by blocking the sunlight. With an annoyed groan she slammed her book shut before looking up at me with the exact same scowl she had been wearing at Victrola. "Can I help you Bass?"
"I am sure I could think of many things you could do to help me Waldorf." I replied with a sleazy smile as I eyed her friends who couldn't take their eyes off of me. "As much I would love the Blair Waldorf private tour I actually came over here with a more important purpose."
Her eyes narrowed as her lips curled in to a look of disgust. "Well whatever you came here for get on with it because we have better things to do than entertain you. I have a party to plan and before you ask, no you are not invited."
"Well actually I already have my invite from Nathaniel. He told me about your little get together and asked if I would like to go and wouldn't you know it I said yes." Deciding to annoy her even further I turned my attention away from her and to a girl with dark hair on her left. Reaching out I took her hand in mine and brought the back of her hand to my lips. "I'm Chuck Bass darling and I have to say that I find your little headband absolutely adorable. Do you have a name beautiful or should I just call you angel since you obviously fell from Heaven?"
The girl whose name I wasn't even remotely interested in learning turned a bright red at my compliment though I could tell she tried to play it off cool and casual by acting like stuff like this happened every single day, though from what I could tell she was not used to being the center of attention. Hmm, I may be able to use this in the future. "I am Penelope and it is a pleasure to meet you. I have heard all about your night club and you must be so proud that it is doing so well. I went there Saturday night, but it was full and they were not letting anyone else in."
"Well then I think I will have to find a new bouncer since the one who was watching the door obviously does not have an eye for beauty." I released her hand and stuffed them in to my pockets since the heat of the sun constantly shining down on them was not exactly my favorite feeling in the world. "How about tonight you meet me there and I will give you a tour that only the owner can give?"
Penelope's heart rate speed up, but before she could say anything Blair spoke up. I had almost forgotten she was here since I had been focusing on my meal for the evening. "Actually I am afraid that Penelope won't be able to make it tonight since we already have plans at Butter. Now if you are done trying to pick up my friends with cheesy lines we have places we have to class to be getting to. Some of us want an education in something other than debauchery and womanizing."
After cutting in to a conversation that had not included her in the first place Blair and her girls picked up their things and headed inside. Penelope looked back at me and I blew her kiss almost laughing when she tripped over one of the steps. Blair stopped for a moment to look back at me with a scowl and I knew that mentally she was telling me that I needed to back off because this was her territory. I always did love a good war and well it looked as if I had found my opponent for the time I was stuck in New York.

By the time lunch came around I was ready to ditch for the rest of the day, but I did not want to hear it from Bart. According to my father as long as we were in the human world I had to follow the rules and that included going to school even though I knew more than any of the teachers would ever wish to know about the subjects they taught. My agitation only grew worse due to the fact I was famished and needed someone to eat. While I could eat human food it did not give me the energy that I would need and so I would have to use my lunch hour convincing some girl to go off with me for a short ride in my limo so that I could have my version of lunch.
As I made my way outside where everyone was gathered chatting, checking their phones, and eating I searched for my next meal. I needed someone who would be easy and as much as I would love to sample Penelope it would take too much time to get her away from the bitch known as Blair Waldorf. The problem with taking some random girl had to be the fact that I was in the mood for something particular though I did not know exactly what it was. With a sigh my eyes landed on Serena talking to some nerdy looking guy or I had thought he was a human male until I saw his eyes. His eyes were a silver blue and immediately I knew who and what he was.
You see back home there were stories about a female vampire who had left to branch out on her own and she ended up falling for a human and having two children with him. The father was someone called Rufus Humphrey and his two vampire children were Daniel and Jennifer. After their mother had abandoned them to come back to our world Rufus had decided to teach his children to live off of animals and not human's. There had been a huge debate on whether the council should send in someone to kill the human and force the children to our world where they would live like normal vampires or to simply let them live the way that they wanted. In the end it was declared to be too much of a hassle to send someone to kill the human and so the children were allowed to live with him in the human world. It would be just my luck that I was forced to attend school with the 'human lovers' as we called them.
Almost as if he could hear what I was thinking Daniel looked at me and I glared right back. We were instant enemies and we both knew it. When my blond soon to be step sister had informed me that she was dating someone named Dan I had never made the connection. There were millions of Dan's all over the world and it never even crossed my mind that Serena's Dan could be the Humphrey kid. I suppose I would have to eventually speak with him to make things clear because this was his territory, but he could not forbid me from hunting here. My only obligation to the other vampire was informing of my presence though it was pretty obvious he was well aware of my being here at his school. If I had wanted to, because I was older and higher up on the vampire hierarchy, I could have challenged him for his territory and I still might it depended how the situation played out.
A human presence came up behind me and I spun around to see Penelope smiling at me. From the corner of my eye I saw Nathaniel and Blair having lunch together and that explained how she had gotten away from the watchful eye of the queen in order to come and speak with me. It appeared I had my lunch and it would also annoy the brunette queen of Constance which was like killing two birds with one Chuck Bass shaped stone.
"I saw you watching Serena and 'lonely boy' as Gossip Girl named her beau." My soon to be meal on legs commented as she glanced over at the pair. "Can you believe that a Van Der Woodsen is dating someone from Brooklyn? Blair is furious about it, but because Serena is her best friend she doesn't complain too much. Um, I was wondering if you would like to come and sit with me during the rest of lunch."
"Actually I was just about to come looking for you. I have decided to dine out for lunch and would love it if you wanted to accompany me. My limo is right over there and we will be back before lunch has finished." I offered her my hand which she took without a second thought and without my having to use my glamour on her. "I thought that we could get to know each other a little better and you could tell me more about the school and the people in it since I am new. I would love to hear more about your queen bee considering it seems as if I have done something to offend her. Is she always like that?"
A nod from Penelope gave me my answer as I helped her in to my limo. "I wouldn't let it bother me if I were you. She is like that with everyone including her supposed friends and boyfriend. The girl's and I call her the ice queen whenever she is out of earshot. Shall we have lunch now? I promise to give you all the juicy details of anyone you want to know more about."
After I had gotten inside of the limo and given my driver, who was a human working for vampires, instructions to drive around until I was finished eating, I set my hand on her thigh and offered her a sexy smirk that had worked for me many times. "Oh I am sure that there is a whole lot more you can do for me Penelope."
TBC…
