I don't want this moment to ever end.
Where everything's nothing without you.
Wait here forever just to, to see you smile.
Cause it's true, I am nothing without you.
She had left two hours ago to go be with a guy he hated, a guy that despised him as well. What did this mean for their relationship? He didn't exactly know. She had pranced out of here and had not even muttered a word back to him. Her outfit had turned him on though, a green dress that screamed perfection on her. Yes, this is one of the many reasons Blair Waldorf was a catch.
She didn't do anything to please anyone she just did somehow. She could come into your life and change it in a blink of an eye. He was glad she did though. He had needed a change and he had never regretted anything that included her.
Their fight they had shook him a little. She came in wanting to know if he kept secrets from her and he told her the truth, no. In some ways he had kept that secret from her, but it was his work. He tried to keep those things separate from her. Work and her were different to him. Work he hated, and Blair well she was just different.
His head jerked up when he heard laughter from the hall. Everyone was here. Lovely he thought.
"Still working Chuck?" Nate asked as he came over and set on the couch beside him.
He nodded looking at a business deal with tired eyes.
"Chuck! I haven't seen you in forever." Serena screamed as she took him in a hug.
"S, nice to see you, even though I saw you like three weeks ago."
Serena hit him. "Whatever."
He saw Dan come in next bringing in all the luggage. "Babe you could of helped." Dan said annoyed.
Serena smiled. "I wanted to see Chuck." She took in Chuck's cheeks.
"I need to get out of here." He mumbled.
"Where's Blair?" Vanessa raised an eyebrow.
Chuck looked away from the group and tried to think of an excuse to tell them. He couldn't think that fast on his feet.
"She's still out." He answered vaguely.
Serena's face went down. She could read him so well. "What happened?"
Chuck turned to her. How did everyone figure out something was wrong? This confused him.
"Nothing."
Serena looked at Dan, who looked at Vanessa, who looked at Nate, who looked back at Chuck. "Sure." They all said in unison.
One thing Chuck never liked about his group of friends is that they always knew exactly what was going on with him.
"It's the truth." He said getting defensive.
"Where is she again?" Vanessa asked trying to get Chuck to open up more.
Chuck stood up from the couch. He needed to leave and go find her and Marcus. He still wondered how they had met up. He didn't trust Marcus with Blair. Truthfully he didn't trust anyone with Blair besides himself.
"Uh, at the market still and right before you guys came back she called. I am going to go pick her up." He lied through his teeth.
They all looked up and nodded, while minding their own business.
He rolled his eyes and shut the door behind him.
-----------------------------------------
Through it all I've made my mistakes
stumble and fall but I mean these words.
I want you to know with everything I won't let this go.
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show and I won't let go.
She had arrived at Tric thirty minutes ago and she was in no way impressed. She had arrived and everyone was drunk off his or her asses. She had found Marcus and luckily he hadn't been drunk, to her surprise. She waved and went over to him and they had been chatting ever since.
When she had walked out on her and Chuck's discussion she had regretted it. She wanted to work out stuff with Chuck; he was her best friend after all. He looked disappointed when she had told him about going out with Marcus, but she didn't care, she now did. She wanted to be at home and talking to him. Marcus was a bore and nothing compared to Chuck. Maybe it was Chuck's personality, or eyes, or the way he would talk, she didn't know, but something about him always made her fall for him more.
She knew it was wrong to think about Chuck in some other way because essentially he might not feel the same, but their kiss had proved her wrong. She had thought about the kiss and it never seemed to get old. His lips had been soft and his tongue had been amazing. The softness of his kisses were undeniable and she wanted to feel them again.
Marcus talking to her brought her out of her thoughts.
"So what do you think?" He asked putting a shot in front of her.
She looked up. "About what?"
"The place?" He laughed.
"Oh um, yea it's great." She looked around lying to him.
"So what made you decide to come?"
Marcus couldn't lie. Blair was definitely a catch and he could see why Chuck had snatched her up.
"I just needed to get out of the house," she said while all she could was think about her roommate.
He looked down and gulped his drink. "I can see why."
She looked back at him not liking his comment about Chuck. Some people just didn't know Chuck. He may of seemed stiff like his father, not that she knew his father, but inside he was a loving person. Did she just say loving?
"Chuck did nothing. I needed to get out for myself." Blair answered knowing that she would never say anything bad about Chuck.
"Did you get the answers you wanted about Victrola?" He knew this would get to her.
She took her shot needing the alcohol. "No, but I know he wouldn't do that to me." She said this knowing Chuck would never hurt her.
Marcus looked at her wanting to change the subject. "So would you like to dance?"
She blinked. "Dance like dance? Like dance on the dance floor?" She questioned looking at all the people out there.
He nodded.
"Oh I am not much of a dancer." She said while pushing the other shot glass away. He threw her a look. "I don't drink much."
"You Blair Waldorf are very interesting." He drank the shot.
She felt her phone vibrate and somehow she was grateful. She looked at the caller, Chuck. She was surprised to say the least. She knew she needed to take the call.
"I need to use the restroom. I'll be right back." She scooted off her stool and left Marcus in the dark about the caller.
She answered the phone. "What Chuck?" She tried to still sound pissed.
"Where are you?" He questioned her.
She looked back and forth seeing if she could find a place to talk and hear him.
"What?" She yelled in the phone.
"Where are you?" He yelled back at her.
"Uh at Tric a club in the city."
"Why are you there? It's not a place for you to be." He told her.
"I'm with Marcus. I'm safe." She said back to him, secretly melting at his concern for her.
"Well I'm coming to get you." He said.
"What?" She wanted to protest, but she heard the phone click.
She looked around again not wanting to really return to her place with Marcus. She just hoped Chuck got here soon.
----------------------------------------
Thoughts read unspoken forever and now
The pieces of memories fall to the gorund
I know what I did and how so, I won't let this go
'Cause it's true, I am nothing without you.
He flipped the phone off. He rolled the window down so he could see his driver.
"4th and Wilbanks." He said giving the driver instructions where to go.
He sat in the car and was anxious to get to Tric. He hated going into Tric. It was full of drunk and high people. Not a place where he wanted Blair to be. He hadn't planned on going after her, but he wanted to. He needed to make sure to watch her like a hawk. Every time they would go out some pervert would look at her. He knew that's exactly what Marcus was doing. When he arrived he was going to give that a guy a piece of his mind.
The driver pulled up to the familiar spot and Chuck got out of the car. He walked to the door where they had to sign you in. To his surprise they let him in without signing him in. He guessed that was one plus to this joint.
He walked into the club and spotted Blair right off, it was probably because she was by far the most beautiful girl in the room. Yes, that's what he told himself. It wasn't because he liked her, it was simply because she was gorgeous.
He approached them.
"Nice to see you two tonight." He smirked.
Marcus gave him an annoyed look, while Blair tried not to look at him all together.
"Bass." Marcus said.
"Abbot." Chuck responded.
Blair looked in between the men. One guy was mediocre, while the one that had just entered could melt your heart into pieces. Yes, this would be a struggle for some girls, but there was only one guy in her mind.
"Hey, Chuck." She wished she had that drink now.
"Blair our friends are at home I was wondering if you needed a lift home." Somehow he always saved her from situations.
"Uh, yea I could." She looked at Marcus who told her she could go. "Thanks Marcus for everything." She smiled back at him while standing up.
"I'll be out in a minute." Chuck told her.
She nodded knowing the two men were about to have a chat.
"Listen, Chuck-" Marcus started.
"No you listen. First of all do not tell Blair about work. Those are two completely separate things. Second, consider yourself without a job. I will personally see to it that you will not be working for my father anymore." Chuck finished with a finger pointed at Marcus.
He heard Marcus try and respond, but he was to much out of the door to hear of it.
He walked to the limo and saw the door opened for him. He looked into the car and saw Blair, in all of her beauty, sitting and waiting patiently for him. He slid in next to her and the door closed behind him.
She looked at him. No bruises, a good sign, she thought. When she had walked out of the club she saw them starting to talk and she had no idea what Chuck had said, but he looked mad. She saw Marcus looking like a dear caught in headlights.
"Thanks for picking me up." She said softly.
He looked at her. "Yea no problem."
She leaned back so she could rest her back against the cool leather seat. She needed to say sorry to him, but really didn't know how.
"Chuck?" He turned to her voice. "I'm sorry about earlier. I just didn't think we hid anything from each other." She said to him honestly.
He smiled at her and chuckled. "It's okay. I'm sorry too, but I really think work and you are much different. Work I hate and I could never possibly think about hating you."
I could never possibly think about hating you. That line she knew would never go away. She was lost in Chuck Bass, just completely lost.
"I'm glad," she said composing herself.
He pushed the window to talk to the driver. "We need to go to Oak Hollow Street, please." He told the driver.
She looked at him with a smile. "Where are we going?"
"You'll see," he responded.
---------------------------------------
All the streets where I walked alone
With nowhere to go have come to an end
I want you to know with everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold on to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show and I won't let go
They entered the club. It was different then Tric or Victrola for that matter. It was a burlesque club. She was very confused why chuck had taken her here.
"What are we doing here Chuck?" She asked looking around.
"Well, I told the gang that I went to see a movie and it only took me about fifteen minutes to find you." She smiled. "Also this club, Shine, is the first club I invested in."
"Your first club was a strip joint?" She thought it was a little odd.
"It's not about what it is; it's about what you invest in." He said knowing she thought it was a little strange.
They walked over to a huge couch that was not occupied. Blair saw all the woman on the stage and thought it looked like a great stress reliever. She was surprised not more of the audience got up there.
"So can anyone go up there?" Blair asked.
"Yea. Why?" He knew she couldn't be thinking about it.
"Just wondering." He knew her too well.
"You won't do it."
"How did you know I was thinking about it?"
"I just do," he smiled at her.
He had never seen her do anything out of the ordinary. She wanted to show she could have a fun time. They still hadn't fully resolved the kiss, which made her still a little uneasy around him, but she knew he probably felt the same too. She needed to show she didn't take everything so seriously.
"Watch my things," she told him with courage.
He looked at her not believing she was actually going to do this. He had never seen her this way and somehow he liked it. His eyes told her he was waiting.
She gave him a smirk of her own and becoming more confident with each step. She made her way up to the stage and saw the dancer look at her like she was one of their own. She looked at how they were dancing and followed their lead.
She then did something she would never expect herself to do. She took her hand and started unzipping her green dress. She wiggled out of it and revealed her undergarments. She then took off her headband throwing it to a mesmerized Chuck.
He looked at her. He could tell she was having the time of her life. Up there doing what most women would never do. He stood up and took his wine flute with him. He needed a better view of this. There he saw Blair Waldorf absolutely gorgeous and doing something that would forever be in his mind. He could feel all the blood rushing to one place; he was so too turned on to ever go back to normal.
"Who's that?" Chuck was pretty sure this person was a transvestite.
He tried to form a sentence, but failed miserably because his eyes couldn't be turned away from Blair's curves. He saw her sway back and forth and he was lost in her.
She looked at him to see if she still had his attention and sure enough she did. She flirted with him through her eyes. He flirted back.
She kept dancing and he kept watching not knowing what the rest of the night held for them.
----------------------------------------
In front of your eyes it falls from the skies
When you don't know what you're looking to find
In front of your eyes it falls from the skies
When you just never know what you will find
What you will find, what you will find
What you will find, what you will find
It was one in the morning and they had been back in the limo for about five minutes. He had a little too much to drink and she had as well. She hadn't stopped dancing and he had not stopped staring, completely mesmerized with her.
She couldn't believe she had gone up there. That had not been her intention, but somehow she had wanted to. She had wanted to see if Chuck would look at her like something besides a friend. When she saw him she had seen in his eyes passion, she too was feeling the same thing.
When she had gone up there he had been beyond surprised. She had looked so flawless up there almost as if nothing else mattered besides them. He saw in her eyes what he had never found in any other person. He saw a love for life. He saw how amazing she truly was.
She looked at him.
He looked at her.
"You were amazing up there," he said to her softly.
She looked back at him not sure what to say. The other night when he had asked her the question she had ran. Ran as far away from him as she could. She ran from him and all the things she knew could possibly end badly for them, but tonight she didn't want to run. She wanted to be with him and embark on a journey that could possibly change her live.
She scooted closer to him and she touched his lips. The lips she wanted to have on hers forever.
He was shocked to feel her lips capture his. He welcomed it though. He parted them for a moment. He wanted to ask the question again making sure it wasn't some kind of dream.
"You sure?" It came out more of statement than a question.
She nodded not wanting to be away from his lips anymore. She moved her body so that she was fully on him. His hands went to the strap of her dress. He wanted to be with her so bad. He needed her more than she knew or anyone knew.
Her tongue wanted to be entwined with his. She placed her hand in his hair making sure to ruffle it around. She wanted to be all of his. She knew this would be her first time and somehow she knew Chuck would do everything in his power to make it be special.
He took his time kissing her. He didn't want to ruin the moment. He wanted to stay in this place forever. He wanted her in his arms forever. He waned her to be his forever, so he kissed her with all he had.
----------------------------------------
I don't want this moment to ever end
Where everything's noting without you
I want you to know with everything I won't let this go
These words are my heart and soul
I'll hold to this moment you know
As I bleed my heart out to show and I won't let go
Her eyes fluttered open. She wasn't sure where she was. The sun was shining so bright she wanted to curse. She rolled over bumping into a strong body. She gasped; it was Chuck's body. She raised her body up slowly trying to see where they where. It didn't look familiar and she knew they were definitely not in his apartment.
It looked to be a hotel room and she noticed that it was completely trashed. She looked down at herself and noticed only bed sheets with nothing underneath. That's when the night came rushing back to her Marcus, the club, Chuck coming to pick her up, the burlesque club, and the limo. The limo where they had sex, they had made it official in the limo. She rubbed her hand over her face trying to wrap her mind around the night. OH GOD!
She swallowed hard. She felt something cold on her hand and she froze. She hoped it wasn't what she thought. She removed her hand from her face while closing her eyes. She opened them when she knew she was ready. That's when she saw it, a gold ban, a gold ban on her left finger. She couldn't breath. She quickly reached and grabbed Chuck's left hand, which was resting on his chest. He had a gold ban as well. She was officially Mrs. Bass. She fell back on the bed, not sure whether she wanted to scream or smile.
