He wraps his arms around her, giving her a small squeeze and kissing her forehead.

They wake up a total of four times during the night.
"If I knew six years ago that we would end up here, I would of just made you go home." Chuck grumbles, pushing the covers off of the bed.
Blair pouts for a second, and when Henry's wailing up starts again, she has to agree.
