After a lot of thinking, I have decided that this would be the end of this story. I had already written it would have max 2 or 3 chapters, but then I believed it was better to end it at 30. That is why this is the epilogue, and is set two years and half after the last chapter I have posted. I really hope you will be happy with the end, as I have been quite glad to write this fan fiction. I will write more fan fictions in the future, and I hope you will read those too. Thanks to who has stuck with this story until the end. The ones who reviewed, favorited/followed the story, or simply read it. Thanks to my friends who helped me to resolve tough points of the plot and who trusted me to continue it. I rarely finish my fan fictions, so this is a big goal for me as a FF writer. Thank you!

….

Blair felt a hand patting her cheek. She was sure that it was too early to wake up, that day sure was going to be long and she wanted to sleep. "It's not dawn yet, Chuck" she whispered in her sleep, as the hand continued to move. It was frustrating, she needed to rest.

"Momma, wake up!"

She quickly opened her eyes to find her daughter next to her bed. Blair never ignored her little girl's plea, and Alexandra usually had a good reason to bother her so early.

"What's wrong, sweetie?"

The child pouted and then made a gesture with her hand. "Pee" she said.

"You need to pee?" she asked, and the kid quickly nodded her head. Blair reluctantly went out of bed and took the kid's hand, directed to the bathroom. Alexandra had just turned three and they were teaching her how to use the potty-chair. Blair helped her baby take off her pajama pants and undies and helped her sit until Lexie had finished. "Good baby" she cooed her, looking how she was getting better at that adult routine.

"Momma, pee was good?" Lexie wondered with her big hazel eyes.

"You were great, honey" she answered as she scooped her up. She glanced at a clock on the wall while she walked back to Lexie's bedroom.

She nodded. "Dada still asleep, momma."

"We should wake your father up. He doesn't want to get late to the ceremony."

Mother and child went back to the main bedroom, where Chuck was sleeping. The night before he had got back from Miami after a three-days meeting to acquire another building. Lexie had prepared him a gift, a little messed up drawing that should had pictured their family.

The child was totally her dad's girl.

Blair put Lexie back on her feet and the kid run to Chuck. Instead of patting his cheek like she had done with her mother, she caressed her father's. It was so kind.

"Papa, wake up" she whispered.

Chuck moved under the sheets, but still didn't open his eyes. "Mmmh" he growled.

"Papa, wake" Lexie continued, still soothing her dad's cheek with her hand.

Finally, he opened his eyes and smiled at her. "Look who is here."

"Papa!" the girl screamed, throwing herself against Chuck's body to hug him.

He hugged her back and kissed her cheek. "You came to wake your dad up, baby girl. He was just dreaming about you."

Lexie recoiled back a little and watched him with a puzzled expression. "Me?"

"Yes, you. Dad was just imagining you dressed as a pretty princess with the gown your mother made you for today's celebration. You were dad's girlfriend and everyone envied you because you were the most beautiful girl of the party."

"Really?"

"Dad doesn't lie, does he."

Lexie shook her head.

"Dad may not lie but dad is currently late for his preparations" Blair interrupted the conversation. "Nate texted me that he'd come early."

Chuck adjusted his daughter on his lap and sat down. "Is he? Damn. Then I'll have to get ready very soon." He put Lexie on the carpet and stood up. "Daddy is going to get dressed."

Lexie nodded. "I want to dress too!"

"Yes, Lexie. You will. Dorota is coming over." Blair informed her.

"Yay!" the girl shouted, then as if she suddenly forgot about her father, she run into her mother's arms to be picked up.

"Is everything alright with Serena?" Chuck asked out of the blue while Blair was still there.

"You know how she is. She must be anxious."

Chuck giggled. "Well, I bet anyone would be in her place. Above all when you have to get married to that groom."

"I thought you and him had become friends. You once were."

He shrugged. "I wouldn't call us friends, but not even enemies. Let's just say I am not against him. And if Serena is in love with him, well... that makes me happy."

"She deserves to be happy too."

"She does."

"At what time did Nate say he would come?" he asked, changing the topic.

"Nine. Now it's seven-thirty. You have time. But I have to be quick."

He nodded. "Let's hope Dorota comes soon."

Blair nodded too, then left the room. She had to check that everything was in place and had to reassure Serena that she would be coming over in one hour. She remembered being so anxious on the day of her wedding, but her best friend was definitely too much giggly.

She went to the villa Lily had booked for Serena's wedding so that she could help prepare her. Alexandra had insisted to come, and Dorota followed along.

"B, thank God you're here!" Serena hugged her once she appeared in her room.

"Calm down, Serena. Zen."

"I am not nervous. Just excited!" Serena smiled like a child.

"More than excited, I'd say you look like someone that smelled marijuana." Blair admitted.

The blonde rolled her eyes. "I'm not that girl anymore, B. And, by the way, it's normal to be so giddy on your wedding day. It only happens once, and I want to enjoy it forever."

"That's the spirit. I'm sure you'll look amazing, S."

Serena smiled, then she suddenly felt the tears prick her eyes. "No, no. I shouldn't be crying."

Blair shook her friend. "Stop the waterworks, Serena! You will ruin your make up."

The two laughed as Blair's eyes started to water a little too. Once they calmed down, Serena noticed Lexie. "Alexandra, you look beautiful with that dress."

"Momma made it" the kid said proudly.

"Yes, momma is good. She also made my wedding dress" she turned and grinned at her best friend.

"That's cute" she said to the child, then turned to Blair. "Are things going well between you and Chuck by the way?"

Blair rolled her eyes and shrugged. "I can't say. He wants another baby, but I don't. It's too early."

"Well, didn't you want to wait until Lexie was one year and half to have another kid? She is three, enough time has passed to try that."

"We did, Serena. But I am happy with a girl for now."

"Just another baby...?"

She glared at her friend. "I thought you were on my team." Serena stuck her tongue out. "And, by the way, it's too late."

"What?"

"Because I'm already pregnant." She admitted.

"Woah, B, that's great! You should let him know soon. Call him now!" Serena grabbed her phone from the dresser and handed it to her friend, who tried to give it her back.

"We should have a private conversation, S."

"Quick, make that call!" Serena handed her phone back.

"No! I won't tell Chuck I'm pregnant again! We need to talk face to face."

"Too late" Serena declared, showing Blair her phone. Chuck had picked up.

Blair grabbed the phone soon. "Chuck? Are you there?"

"When were you going to tell me you were pregnant?"

"Later. But now you know, so it doesn't matter. Are you... angry?" She questioned cautiously.

"Yes. I am super angry because I wasn't the first person you confessed this big news to."

Blair felt relieved. "I wanted to tell you after the wedding, but Serena ruined my surprise."

"Leave Serena alone, it's her wedding day. We'll talk about this later. Me and Nate are coming over in one hour."

"Okay" she replied with a sad tone. "Then I'll see you both later." Chuck hung up, and she thought what a big mess she had done.

….

At the end of the day, the celebration had been a success. A lot of guests had been invited, because of Serena's status and work. Everything had run smoothly, and Serena and her groom had already left town for their honeymoon.

Her best friend had finally realized her dream of love, and her husband didn't seem so bad as both Blair and Chuck had expected him to be.

Serena had a short lived fling with a teacher, Ben, before Blair launched her clothing line. But this guy didn't want to give her much since he loved his career before everyone, so eventually Serena got back with Dan Humphrey before he got dumped for the same reason as Ben.

Carter came unexpected after few months. Serena didn't want to fall back in love with him. As much as she knew, he had betrayed her. But he explained his misunderstanding to her and promised he would never do such thing again. After one year of engagement, they decided to get married and everyone seemed happy of it after Carter had reformed his image.

Now it looked as if everybody was exceptionally giddy, besides for the Bass'. The air in their limousine was a little suffocating in the ride back home after the ceremony had ended.

Chuck and Blair had only exchanged few words at the wedding. He had acted cold, and she knew it was because she had delayed the good news.

"Beautiful wedding, wasn't it?" Blair whispered – Lexie was already sleeping and she didn't want to wake her up.

"Great organization, good food... I'm sure everyone loved it."

"Yeah, that steak was great. Did you like it?"

He nodded, but didn't add any more words. Instead, he closed his eyes and seemed as if he was sleeping too. This angered Blair, she never thought he'd be this enraged.

After a couple of minutes, she tried again to open him up. "Chuck. I know you're ignoring me because I didn't tell you that I was pregnant, but I said I was sorry."

"I'm not angry" he quickly dismissed her assumption.

"Then why are you being so cryptic?"

"Because I'm tired, Blair. Am I not allowed to be tired after a trip to another state?"

Blair sighed. "No, you are not. I thought you wanted another baby!"

He kept his eyes closed and his mouth shut. Blair was on the verge, so she thought for the night it was better not to argue with her husband anymore since he wanted to rest. When they got to their house, Chuck told her that he needed to have a chat with the driver – apparently he had to go somewhere the day after and wanted to tell Arthur.

Blair gave Alexandra to Dorota and the women got in the elevator. Damn, how much that was frustrating.

"Not worry about Mr Chuck." Dorota told her. "He just tired, tomorrow will be happy for baby."

"I guess so, Dorota. He must be. He wanted a second child!"

"I'm sure Mr Chuck is happy. Wait till he gonna tell you."

Blair nodded, then the two parted ways once they got to the penthouse. Dorota took Lexie to her bedroom and she removed her heels. She wanted a drink, but she just remembered that she was pregnant so she sighed heavily.

"Being pregnant sucks" she muttered.

"No, it doesn't." She turned, and Chuck was there with a glass of champagne in his hands.

"Chuck, what are you doing with champagne?"

"How come what am I doing? I'm drinking it, that's what am I doing. I would have taken a glass for you, but you are not allowed to drink anything besides water."

She glared at him. "I am allowed to drink champagne every once in a while."

"Blair." He called her, interrupting her complaint.

"Yes?"

"We need to celebrate."

"What for?"

"Your pregnancy. What else did you think?"

"Maybe your latest acquisition in Florida?" she asked. Oh God, she sounded dumb.

He laughed. "Really, Blair, when did we celebrate for those? I don't care about them. What is wealth without family? The only acquisition I care about right now, is right here" he pointed to her belly. "That's all that matters."

She smiled. "I'm really glad you're not sulking."

"I wasn't sulking. I was thinking. I wanted to make you a welcome surprise because of the good news, but it was too late and I could only find some champagne in the wine cellar."

"Well, you could have taken whiskey, scotch, vodka... it didn't matter."

"If only you weren't pregnant" he massaged his temples. "But I'm happy you are. I've missed it."

"You've missed me being pregnant?"

"You were fun when you were pregnant."

She glared at him. "It wasn't fun at all! All of my dresses were too tight-fitting and my back ached very much. And those pills I had to take! That doesn't sound like fun."

"Yes. But fun was when we took bathrooms together and went to the Hamptons, wasn't it?"

"Alright, I'll give you that."

"This time will be different, anyway. We are prepared." He said, then he grabbed her hand.

She looked at their hands and grinned. "We'll put all of our efforts this time so that we will not make the same mistakes again."

"I agree. And my son right here will be the heir to my company."

She frowned. "How are you sure it's a boy? What if it's another girl?"

"Nah, I know that it's a boy. I can feel it."
