After two days in the hospital mainly for observation, Blair had finally been told she could go home. I think it had a lot less to do with her being clear physically and more with the fact that she was Blair Waldorf and nobody wanted to deal with either her mother or her father if she was unhappy. Everyone knew that if you got on the wrong side of the Waldorf family you would pay for it and since none of the doctors wanted to deal with that they had told Blair she could go home as soon as the paper work was finished. I had offered to take her home; well technically I told her I would be bringing her home so she really had no say in the matter. It was strange that she hadn't put up an argument at all, but she had been acting weird since she woke up in the hospital. I wondered if perhaps aliens had abducted her or something because the queen of Constance wasn't acting the Blair I knew.

As of right now she was in her laptop computer and occasionally she would glance at me as if looking for something. Since I couldn't get in to her mind I had no idea what she happened to be thinking. It would be harder to keep my secret from her if I didn't know how close she was to figuring it out. Of course being the way she was she had to make things difficult for me. I really needed to make sure she didn't figure anything out because if she did there was no way I would be able to keep her safe from Bart. Standing up to him was one thing, but trying to defend a human if they found out about us? I would have no chance since he was much older and had more experience. That is why I needed to make sure Blair never found out the truth. I am not sure how I would do that since I could not read her mind or even enter her head to put suggestions in her mind, but I would think of something because I am Chuck Bass after all.

"As much as I enjoy sitting her doing nothing while you type away on your computer you do remember you owe me an apology don't you?" I smirked as stopped whatever she reading on her computer in order to look at me with very irritation expression on her face. "The drug test you asked for came back clean and so that means I didn't do anything inappropriate. I was telling you the truth the entire time. I suppose I can't blame you for thinking I did because I am a Bass after all. I may not show it well, but I have moments just moments were I don't act like a Bass. Still I find it sweet that you actually thought I'd do something like that. I love knowing I have a bad reputation. Thank you for the best compliment I have ever received."

"You are welcome I suppose." She muttered her eyes going right back towards the computer screen. "I still know that you are keeping something from me and I am going to find out."

I let my eyes close for a second as I tried to control the emotions welling up inside of me. After a moment I opened them to look at her. Now was not the time for me to be sarcastic or an ass as my Uncle Jack often used to describe me. "You really don't want to do that Waldorf trust me. I know you have this need to know everything about everybody, but there are some things in this world you don't need to know. I am turning in to a girl as I say this no doubt, but I am doing what is best for you in this situation. Trust that I know what I am doing and if you can't then just stay out of my business. It is not only you who could be hurt if you search for the truth. Everyone you care about could be put at risk so if you do not care for your own safety I know you care about theirs even if you won't ever admit it."

She sighed and closed her computer. "If whatever secret you are hiding is dangerous to everyone then why do you even stay? You make it sound as if we all would be better off without you and yet you don't leave. What is keeping you here?"

"You know the answer to that question." I replied softly turning my head away from her piercing gaze. "You know so don't make me say it."

"You either tell me the truth about what you are and what the hell is going or you tell me why you are choosing to stick around." Her tone held no room for argument and yet I knew that I should just go before this conversation got too heated and I ended up saying something I shouldn't. I did not want to end up doing something stupid such as spilling the truth.

"You say it first." I challenged hoping it may stall her. "If you expect me to tell you how I feel then I expect the same in return. Three words eight letters. You say it and I will tell you anything you want to know."

Silence surrounded us as I waited for her to say something. I waited for her to say anything and yet she remained silent for two of the longest minutes I had ever experienced in all my years of existing. Finally she opened her mouth and spoke though it was not the words I wanted to hear. "The only three words you are ever going to hear from me that are made up of eight letters are 'I hate you' because I could never feel anything else Bass not for you. Until you tell me the truth I want you to stay out of my life. Don't talk to me in school, don't text or call me, and don't you dare come to my home. You are officially banned from Blair Waldorf's life."

TBC…

AN: I know this was not the greatest chapter, but well I couldn't seem to get it the way I wanted and since I did not want to work on it forever I just left it the way it was after the last rewrite. The next chapter should be better I hope. Oh I got a kind of rude review and the person did not sign in. If you have something to tell me at least sign in so I can reply. Let me know what you thought.
