Show - Gossip Girl

Pairing - Dan/Blair - Dair.

Summary - But the bigger question is - What happens when we stop fighting it? Dair happens that's what!

A/N Okay so I haven't wrote a fanfic in ages, but if anything was going to give me a kick up the backside to actually post a story then it's Dan & Blair. Now for me this couple are very surprising…Well my love for them is, because until recently I was Chuck & Blair all the way. But OHHEMGEE Dan & Blair are actually epic. They are very cute and so… my obsession began. To be honest I always wanted them to become friends even since the first season, and even though I love Chair, I thought the possibility of Dan & Blair was, well rather good. However, I had no idea how good they would make them and so I need to applaud the gossip girl writers. I really think Dan & Blair are adorable and want them to be together so badly! Hopefully they will. Okay my ramble is over...here's my take on what I want to happen with Dan & Blair, starting from the end of episode 4x17.

Disclaimer - I don't own the gossip girl characters…unfortunately *sigh*

"One Kiss and that's that" the words echoed in Blair's mind as Dan repeated the words she had just spoke. One kiss. Nothing more and nothing less would come if this- of them. I mean it couldn't possibly, after all they where queen bee and lonely boy, both from different worlds, not to mix. Yet here Blair was staring into Dan's eyes. Her heart was thumping and her throat was dry. "So" Dan said, trying to ease in the moment that was about to happen.

Blair was so entranced by Dan she didn't quite know what to say, now she was the one to repeat the words this time. "So" she managed. She then cleared her throat. Dan's fingers brushed up against Blair's arm which he was still holding onto. His eyes travelled down to her lips. He noticed for the first time how good they looked.

And then it hit him. He, Dan Humphrey actually wanted to kiss her, Blair Waldorf.

Not to prove Dorota and his dad wrong about him having feelings for Blair, but simply because he wanted to. He really wanted to. He continued to stare at her lips, thoughts mulling around his head on why he wanted to kiss Blair.

Blair stared intently at Dan, noticing his eyes on her lips. What's taking him so long? She thought. As he continued to stare she noticed a flicker of lust in his eyes, or what she thought was. No, it couldn't possibly be, I mean Dan Humphrey couldn't possibly like her could he? Blair quickly shook the thought away, of course not she thought, he was only kissing her to prove that he didn't like her. In that moment Blair felt strangely sad; sad that Dan Humphrey didn't want her.

And then it hit her. She, Blair Waldorf wanted to kiss him, Dan Humphrey.

Yes she wanted him, strangely enough she wanted him badly. When did this happen she questioned herself - I mean were not even friends really - Regardless Blair couldn't shift the longing feeling she now felt towards Dan. Even though it was mere seconds that had passed, to Blair it felt like hours and so she began to grow impatient. Impatient because she wanted Dan to kiss her, right now. When Dan continued to stare at her, with what looked like no intent of making any move, Blair cracked. "Oh for crying out loud Humphrey!" She couldn't take it anymore, she grabbed Dan by the collar of his jacket and pulled him towards her. She then closed her eyes crashing her lips onto his.

Blair interrupted Dan's swarm of thoughts on him and Blair, and before he knew it he was being pulled and his lips were on hers. For a moment he was stunned by her abrasiveness and stood tranquil enjoying the feeling of her lips on his. After a few seconds he began to kiss her back, his lips touching her soft ones. He moved the hands that was once at his side to her shoulders, feeling her warm creamy skin. He then moved one of his hands up to her hair, tangling his fingers in her soft brown curls.

Their lips moved in unison, neither stopping. Blair let her hands slide from his collar to around his neck pulling him closer to her. When she felt Dan's fingers in her hair she shivered at his touch. Who knew Humphrey was such a good kisser? She thought. It had definitely surprised her. No it wasn't the most passionate or steamy kiss she had ever had, but it was soft, intimate and definitely heart stopping. She somehow felt safe and secure in his presence - through his kiss, and that was well, surreal.

Then reality set in and Blair realised what she was doing. She was kissing lonely boy and liking it. She abruptly stopped the kiss and took a few steps back from Dan, her eyes on the floor. She smoothed down her dress and looked up to find Dan's intense gaze on her. Blair collected her thoughts that were still rather jumbled from the kiss. What were they going to do now? Okay they had kissed, but nothing else could happen between them. So there was only one thing to do. Lie.

"Well, we tested your theory, We had our one kiss…and I didn't feel anything did you?" Okay so she was a blatant liar, but she had to lie right? I mean she couldn't very well tell Dan Humphrey that she liked their kiss and that she wanted to kiss him again now could she? Anyway even if she did there's no way Dan would want to, he had only kissed her to prove that there was nothing between them, so it's best she kept her feelings secret. They would go away very soon anyway she told herself.

Dan looked down at the floor, an awkward laugh escaped his lips. He rubbed his head, he then looked up at Blair who was looking at him with anticipation. "Yes actually" he replied. Classic Dan Humphrey, brutally honest.

Blair's mouth opened slightly, but for once she was lost for words. Yes? She thought…how could this be? He had to be kidding right. Dan quickly interrupted her thoughts.

"Well, I should go." he said, he then turned around and began to walk away. Blair stared at his retrieving figure, and before she could stop her self her hand flew to his and she tugged him backwards.

"Don't go" she stated simply. Dan turned around and looked into Blair's dark brown eyes, in that moment they were so full of fear and fragility. He thought for a moment - should he leave, and forget Blair and there messed up 'kinda friendship kinda more' or whatever it was they had. Or should he stay and see what happens when they stop fighting it?

So that's chapter one guys! Was sort of just an introductory chapter. Left it on a little cliff-hanger. So what will Dan do? Should he go and chill out for a while and see if his feelings for Blair are still there …or should he stay and push her into fessing up about her feelings? Review and tell me what you think! Thanks!
