    “I don’t want to see Serena at school and she better not show at brunch today,” Blair carelessly stated as she inspected the dress she was supposed to wear.

    “You’re really mad at Serena…”

    “Yeah, hope you never get that mad at us,” Katie and Is commented from their seats.

    “Well you will never do what Serena did,” Blair almost threatened them.

    “No, never.”

    “Course not,” they agreed.

    “I wonder if Chuck remembered Brunch. It would be so wrong of me to show up without my boyfriend who would never hurt me, and who I can’t wait to see,” she beamed as she took out her phone and dialed Chuck’s number.
    
*********

    Nate was woken by the loud vibrating of the phone on the table, and the clattering of poker chips. He groaned as he grabbed the phone, “Hello?” he asked groggily.

    “Nate? What are you doing? Is Chuck there?”

    “Yeah. He’s just…” Nate trailed off, still half asleep and not thinking straight.

    Blair, realizing that she probably woke him up finished. “Well go wake him up Nate. His dad’s brunch for the foundation is today.”

    Nate threw the phone back on the table getting a loud groan from the bed.

    “Ugh, keep it down,” Chuck grumpily yelled.

    “That was Blair, your dad’s brunch is today,” Nate pulled himself up from the couch.

    “Alarms set for nine…” Chuck lied back down.

    “It’s ten,” Nate countered.

    Chuck sighed before sitting up and rubbing his head while walked over to the counter, where Nate was now sitting.

    “That kid popped ya pretty good huh,” Nate joked. “Never mess with a guy’s sister.”

    “I wasn’t messing with her it was just a game,” Nate shook his eyes, slightly grossed out by Chuck and Blair’s form of fun. “Still, I should hunt him down and kill him,” Chuck said angrily while pouring ingredients into a blender.

    “Why cause you kill people now? Gonna strangle him with your scarf?” Nate laughed as he threw Chuck’s scarf in his face.

    “Don’t mock the scarf Nathaniel, it’s my signature.”

    “Just saying, death by scarf, not very intimidating.”’

    “Anyway, better a broken nose then a broken heart,” Chuck finished before turning on the blender.

***********

    “Look Blair, I’m really trying to make an effort here. I thought everything was good between us,” Serena finally broke the silence.

    “It was. Before I found you had sex with Nate… while he was still my boyfriend.”

    Serena was shocked, it took her awhile to gather her thoughts. “How’d you find out?”

    “Nate told me. At least he felt he owed it to me to tell the truth,” Blair continued.

    “I don’t know what to say,” Serena said.

    “Don’t bother saying anything. I wouldn’t believe you anyway,” Blair stood up.

    Serena stood up to follow, “Blair it was…”

    “You know I always knew you were a whore, I never took you for a liar too.” Serena opened her mouth to speak but was cut off by Blair, “Don’t, Serena. Just stay away from my friends and from me and especially from Chuck. Because if you don’t we’ll ruin you.” And with that she turned and walked up the stairs, leaving Serena alone.

    “That is the lamest excuse I’ve ever heard,” Blair mentioned as she grabbed the pens Jenny was returning. She paused, “You want to know what Chuck Bass is saying about you,” she almost laughed, pathetic she thought.

    “No,” Jenny tried to deny it, but when Blair raised her eyebrows she gave in. “Is he… saying things? Is anyone?”

    “Well, no… not yet at least. He was just playing anyway, so it’s not like he’s going to brag about it,” Blair shrugged it off. “And anyway he is my boyfriend so I can always tell him not to say anything.”

    Jenny was slightly confused by this and was about to say something when Blair cut her off, “Come on, you can help me get ready for brunch,” before leading Jenny up the stairs.

**********

    A half hour after Jenny had left and Blair was still standing in front of the mirror trying on clothes. She sighed loudly as she pulled off another dress and turned around, “And how long have you been there?” she almost yelled in frustration as she saw Chuck leaning in the doorway.

    “Wouldn’t you like to know,” he laughed as he walked towards her. “Having trouble deciding what to wear?” He gestured towards her bed that was piled with rejected dresses.

    “No, didn’t you know I just love spending my time trying on dresses that make me look disgusting,” she snapped sarcastically before sitting down on her bed.

    Chuck chuckled softly, “Someone didn’t have a good morning,” he said as he began sifting through her clothes.

    “Ugh, Serena came over. I mean did she really think I’d still want to see her after what she did,” Blair huffed.

    “Well, considering that you’re not even dating Nathaniel anymore, I think it’s safe to say she’d think it would go better,” Chuck said as he lifted up a dress before setting it back down and continuing his search.

    “I mean I know that, but when it happened I was still dating him. And if that happened with you I’d still want revenge,” Blair tried to explain. “Speaking of which, why did I have to deal with Jenny Humphrey asking about you this morning,” Blair stated, sitting up.

    “Ugh, and her brother was outside of my hotel today. What is with these Humphreys, they’re like cockroaches. The next time I see him…” Chuck mumbled, clenching his fist.

    “Oh so I’m over reacting but you’re allowed to go after Serena’s new boy toy,” Blair giggled.

    “He sucker punched me, I told you,” Chuck grumbled. Blair giggled at his unhappy expression and stood up to kiss him. He quickly wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her closer, eventually breaking apart to hold a dress in front of her. “Wear this one,” when Blair looked at it skeptically he continued, “Or we could just stay here all day, if I do recall there were some activities that you were very excited to try a few days ago.”

    Blair huffed as she grabbed the dress and began pulling it on, “It’s your dad’s brunch, we’re not missing it.”

    “He wouldn’t care,” Chuck stated before he was met with the sight of Blair in the all white dress he picked out. She was turning around to inspect herself in the mirror, he put his hands on her waist to stop her. “You look absolutely gorgeous.”

    She seemed to relax as he said this. “It’s too… white,” she then snapped.

    Without saying anything he walked over to her dresser and began rummaging through it, then coming back over with a pair of black lace tights. “How did you know they were there?” She questioned as she began pulling on the tights. Much better, she thought as she inspected herself in the mirror again.

    “I’ll leave you to finish getting ready,” he avoided the question as he sauntered out of her room.

**********

    “Father,” Chuck said as he was dragged over to talk.

    “The invitation said black tie, not black eye. Are you ok? I mean if you’re in some kind of trouble…” Bart started.

    “Only of my own making,” Chuck answered, earning a sigh from Bart.

    “Why do you think I do all this, huh? This party is for you… so you can meet people, you know become a part of something. You’re dating Blair Waldorf, don’t you think it’s time you made a change,” Bart lectured.

    Chuck remained quiet as he slowly took a drink. “And do me a favor will ya. Lose the scotch, it’s barely noon,” and with that Bart walked off, leaving an annoyed Chuck behind.

    “Where’s your lovely mother today?” Harold asked once he’d finally gotten Blair into a conversation.

    “Paris. Must be some drama at the atelier,” Blair smiled politely.

    “Nothing too dramatic I hope, her line is doing very well. I was just telling my firm what a great investment she’d make. She’s really going places.”

    “Hopefully places far far away,” Blair answered. “Just kidding,” she added after seeing the look on his face.

    She was saved when Chuck and Nate both walked over to them. “Captain,” Chuck greeted him politely as he wrapped his arm around Blair’s waist.

    “Hey, let me get you a refill,” Nate smiled at Blair as he grabbed her drink.

    “I’ll come with you,” Harold added as he grabbed hold of Nate’s shoulder, walking away with him.

    When they’d left Blair turned to Chuck, “I can’t believe Serena came to this brunch. I told her to stay away,” she said forcefully.

    “What are you doing right now?” He asked. At her confused look he held up the key to his suite.

    She held back a laugh, “You’re disgusting.”

    “Yes I am, so why be shy,” he stated, pulling her closer. “Let’s just go upstairs and finish this.”

    Blair took a minute before grabbing the key in his hand. He chuckled, “I’m honored to be playing even a small role in your deflowering.”

    “How about the main one?” Blair giggled as she began leading Chuck out of the room.

*************

    From the moment they left the ballroom neither noticed much around them, as they were too busy making out. The elevator was way too slow for both of them and they practically raced to the door of Chuck’s suite. But when they walked in they froze.

    “Serena?” Blair asked outraged. Then she looked at the guy sitting next to her, “Nate?”

    “Chuck? Blair?” Both Serena and Nate asked as they stood up.

    “What are you two doing here?” Blair said, getting angrier by the second.

    “I was just meeting Nate,” Serena got out.

    “It was just to talk, I swear,” Nate hurriedly added.

    “You said you’d never speak to her again,” Blair yelled at Nate. Chuck was now trying to hold back a laugh, but was silenced by a death glare from Blair.

    “Look this isn’t Serena’s fault. I asked her to come here,” Nate tried to defuse the situation.

    “So you do want to talk to her,” Chuck threw in from his position to the side.

    “You know what maybe you two should just go and continue your fascinating conversation somewhere else,” Blair spit out.

    “Sure, we’ll just let you two get back to your quickie,” Serena responded, standing up to Blair.

    “It wasn’t a quickie! Sex is actually a big deal to some of us,” Blair responded. Chuck couldn’t help but laugh at this comment, but he quickly stopped himself.

    “Oh, yeah I can see that. Chuck’s bed, very romantic, classy too.”    

    “Oh, like you. I’ll bet your new friend Dan would love to hear all about how classy you are,” Blair stated as she ran out the door.

    “You really think she’d tell him?” Serena asked Nate.

    “It’s Blair,” Chuck drawled as he started fixing his rumpled hair, laughing softly as Serena and Nate rushed out the door.

**********

    “Hope you’re happy,” Nate told Blair.

    “Not even close,” she said before running off. Nate and Serena looked at Chuck who shrugged, before running off after Blair.

    He caught up with her while she was walking down the halls of the Palace. He wrapped his arms around her waist as he almost growled out. “Great work back there. I just love it when you unleash the bitch.”

    Blair laughed a little, “Good to know that you’re not still sore from your latest encounter with Dan Humphrey.”

    Chuck laughed, then after a minute, “Well, you know my room is available if you…”

    “Chuck!” Blair playfully slapped him.

    “Fine, let’s just go sit around my suite. I’m tired of my father,” he said as he began walking her towards the elevator.
