Blair walked into the house with her head down. Her chocolate curls hiding her face and her guilt. Serena saved her this afternoon when she called her. Saved her from sitting in the bathroom crying her eyes out. Saved her from putting her elegant fingers down her throat till food and blood covered the water of the toilet. After Serena saved her they spent the afternoon together, even though it was with the Humphrey siblings. It was still nice. Eating fries without worrying about the carbs and actually eating something salty and delicious was great, but the guilt was still there. Blair searched the pent house and found her mother in the kitchen.
"Mom?" Blair fully walked into the kitchen to stand in front of her mother.
Eleanor looked up and turned around. "Blair! I was so worried where were you?"
Blair sat down in front of her mother and grabbed her hand. "Mom, I need you to listen to me. Please, I am begging you to listen to me." Eleanor straightened up a little and a worried frown etched on her face, "I knew it. You are going to live with your father. He finally convinced you! I knew this would happen."
Blair sighed. "Mom, no. I am not living with Daddy, but I need to tell you my feelings right now. I need to see Dr. Sherman, ASAP. What you did to day caused me to release and I feel you knew this. I feel that you knew telling me to eat that pie and the reaction and anxiety I was having about Daddy...", Tears started to fall, "I feel you knew that. But it is ok. I have been having a lot of stress recently and it is not your fault at all. It just caused a major shove."
Eleanor tighten her hold on Blairs hands. "I'm sorry too. Your father sent divorce papers...and it hurt. I guess I took it out on your happiness."
Blair swallowed the lump in her throat. "I'm sorry mommy. I am sorry for putting you through this. I will try better."
Eleanor leaned in and hugged Blair. "We will see the Doctor tomorrow. I love you Blair and this is not your fault at all. I am sorry too."
Blair let the tears fully fall and sighed in relief. Feeling for once she was finally heard by her mother and not brushed off anymore.
