The Mess that is Chuck Bass~ Chapter 6
“You want to go have dinner?” She asked, shocked that Chuck had suggested it.
He moved away from her a little bit. Chuck was dismayed sa pamamagitan ng her reaction and embarrassed no less. “Well if you don’t want too Blair, I can just go sa pamamagitan ng myself. It’s up to you.”
Blair held up her hand to stall him from saying anything else. “Don’t be silly. Of course, I want to go with you. But I have to go back to my hotel and change clothes. Should we just meet there?”
His mind started whizzing. This was it. Even though he was the one that suggested dinner, he was having segundo thoughts about it now. He could push Blair further away or he could let her back into his life. Chuck had made his choice already. “Sure, Blair. We’ll meet in about an hour. How does that sound?”
XOXO
Blair was riffling through the clothes in her closet so fast that she was ripping them off their hangers. She knew that this wasn’t a date, so she didn’t want to go overdressed. After a half oras of looking through her clothes, she finally settled on a choice. She chose a pair of red Channel slacks with a ruffled blusa and a black Ralph Lauren blazer.
She walked over to the full length mirror to check out her appearance. Blair thought she looked pretty decent, if she did say so herself. Just as she was finishing up applying her makeup, her cell phone started to ring.
Blair picked it up without checking the caller id. “Hello?”
Serena’s voice crackled over the line. “Hey, B. I haven’t heard from you in a while, I just wanted to make sure you were okay.”
She appreciated Serena’s concern; she was being a great friend. But she was already running a little late. “Hi, Serena. Can I call you back later? I’m actually on my way out to dinner.”
“No problem, Blair. Who are you going to hapunan with?” Serena asked.
“Chuck.”
“Really? It looks like things are looking up then, aren’t they?”
“I hope so, S. I’ve got to go. I’ll call you later.” Blair heard Serena chuckle over the line as she hung up her phone.
She appraised her appearance one madami time in the mirror. Blair tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, and nervously flattened out a crinkle in her pants. She wasn’t primping for him, Blair reminded herself. She wanted to look nice for herself and not anybody else. She let out a distressed sigh. Oh what the hell. She might as well admit it. She was primping for Chuck Bass.
XOXO
She walked into the restaurant they had decided on, ten minutos late. Her eyes immediately found Chuck. He was drumming his fingers impatiently on the surface of their table. Blair rushed over to him.
“Sorry, I’m late. Serena called and I was trying to get her off the phone.” She sinabi with a shaky laugh.
Chuck looked up when he heard her voice. She heard his sharp intake of breath when he saw her outfit. Blair was pleased that he obviously liked what he saw. She took her upuan opposite of Chuck.
They sat in silence as they pursued their menus. Once they had ordered, Blair leaned pasulong towards him. She felt awkward all of a sudden; she had no idea what to say to Chuck.
He broke the tense silence. “So tell me Blair, what has been happening on the Upper East Side since I’ve been gone?”
She saw a twinkling light in his eyes, and was thrilled that Chuck finally seemed a little happy. She would do anything to keep him this way. So she launched into an explanation of what had been going on.
“Serena and Dan are still together, and from what I see, they’re happier than ever.”
“She’s still dating that Brooklynite loser?” Chuck asked in disbelief.
Blair smiled at his question, and Chuck desired nothing madami than to halik her in front of all these people. But of course he didn’t.
“I used to hate Dan, but he kind of grows on you. At least he makes S happy.” She smirked and he felt desire run through him. He moved closer to her, but her susunod words stalled him.
“And Nate…” Chuck instantly stiffened at his name, but Blair threw him a stern look before continuing. “Nate’s been with about five different girls since you left. A couple of walang tiyak na layunin girls, and then there was Jenny, and now he’s dating Vanessa.”
Chuck made a disapproving face at Vanessa’s name. She laughed. “I know how you feel. That’s the same face I make when I hear Vanessa’s name. She’s like a fly you just want to scrape off the bottom of your shoe.”
He chuckled at her paglalarawan of Vanessa. Blair looked at him in surprise when she heard him laugh. It had been so long since she had heard him laugh, that she almost forgot what it had sounded like. She had always loved Chuck’s laugh, it was wonderful to hear that sound again.
Their dinners came a few minutos later, and sat in silence as they ate. Blair moved her hand closer to Chuck’s on the table, but not yet quite touching it.
She wet he lips as she spoke. “There’s something I’ve been meaning to ask you.”
“Go ahead, Blair.”
“I probably shouldn’t ask but I really want to know.” Blair took a deep breath. “What did you think of me that night at Victrola?”
Chuck looked at her in surprise, but felt some anger towards her. Was she really asking him that? Didn’t he spill enough of his feelings for one day?
“Are we really going to talk about this, Blair?”
“Yes.”
“Well, I hate to burst your bubble, but I don’t want too.”
“I do though, Chuck.”
“You can’t always get what you want, Blair.”
“Neither can you.”
They looked at each other for a moment before he snapped, “Fine. We’ll talk about it, princess.”
Blair smiled an angelic smile. “Good. Thank you, Chuck. It’s just something I was always curious about.”
He couldn’t stay mad at her, she was just too cute. Chuck took several deep breaths before beginning. “When you came to Victrola that night and sinabi that you and Nate had broken up, I wasn’t all that surprised. I felt like it had been a long time coming. I’ve always felt differently about you than any other girl, Blair. You were always my friend and I never wanted to sleep with you. You are the only woman I never wanted to sleep with.”
Blair raised her eyebrows at this, but sinabi nothing to deter him. He continued, “You were always a friend to me and you were Nate’s girl. So I knew that I could never touch you, even if I wanted too. But that night at Victrola, everything changed. When I saw you dancing on that stage, it was like you were someone entirely different. You weren’t just Blair Waldorf anymore. You had been transformed into this beautiful siren that I wanted to get to know better.”
Blair was thrilled that Chuck was telling her all of this, she never thought he would spill all of his feelings to her. But he was finally opening up to her.
“You were just so fucking beautiful, Blair.” Chuck whispered fervently. “I have never felt lust like that in my life. It was so strong and overpowering. I was consumed sa pamamagitan ng it. I knew then it didn’t matter that you were with Nate; I just had to have you. “
“I couldn’t believe when you kissed me in the limo that night. I knew that Nate would fucking kill me if I touched you, but I didn’t even care anymore. Because I felt for you something that I never felt for any girl that I have ever been with. You weren’t just another girl to me Blair; you’re an important part in my life. So I knew I had to tread carefully through those waters.
Chuck unconsciously reached for her hand, and traced patterns on her palm with his finger. “The sex that night was amazing. Although I felt like it was madami than just sex. I figured I would screw you a few times and then I would be able to forget about you. But it didn’t work. I just wanted you even more, Blair. No matter how hard I try to forget you, I can’t. And I don’t think I will ever be able too.”
Blair just stared back at him, emotion sparkling in her eyes. Chuck saw it and instantly regretted what he had just told her. He should have never bared his soul to her. He dropped her hand back on the mesa like it was an atom bomb.
“Are you satisfied?” He asked sarcastically.
Blair noticed that he was closing up again, but she was determined not to let that happen. She snatched his hand back and smiled. “Yes. Thank you for telling me that. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t all entirely one sided on my part. I needed to know, Chuck.”
He nodded tersely. After a few moments of silence, he asked her a tanong that had been on his mind. “I’m almost afraid to ask this, Blair. But I can’t help myself. What did you of me that night at Victrola?”
Blair batted her eyelashes coyly. “Are you sure you want to know?”
“Probably not, but tell me anyways.” Chuck mumbled, a bit scared to hear her answer.
Blair scraped her chair back and got up. She went to stand directly in front of Chuck and plopped down in his lap. She wound her arms around his neck, and his hands went to her hips and stayed there.
“I just thought that I should look at you face to face while I tell you this.”
She looked at his face for any sign of disagreement, but found none. “That night at Victrola was very hard for me because I was upset that I had just broken up with Nate. And I was still totally in pag-ibig with him at this point.”
Chuck’s jaw tightened and he ground his teeth together to keep from saying anything.
“When you dared me to go up on the stage and dance in front of everybody, I felt an excitement churning through my veins. I had never done anything like that before, and I have to admit that it felt great. I didn’t just want to be Blair Waldorf anymore. I didn’t want to be prim, proper, and so put together, I felt the need to let loose and have some fun. And it was all because of you Chuck, you bring out the best in me. The Blair that I keep hidden except when I’m around you.”
She stopped talking and placed a quick halik on Chuck’s mouth. His mouth watered at the taste of her lips, but she pulled away before he could give her a proper kiss.
Blair continued on. “Then when I was on stage and I saw you looking at me, I felt elated. I could tell that you wanted me and that sent a thrill through me. The great Chuck bass wanted me. And I’ll never forget the look on your face. You looked at me like you had never seen anything so delectable in your life. And I knew that Nate had never looked at me like that in our eight years of dating. All I could think was that I never had seen anything as powerful as your gaze and what it made me feel. Even that night at Victrola you made me feel madami than Nate ever did and you still do.”
Chuck was shocked at her words because he never knew that she felt like that. But a huge thrill ran through his body. He reached up with his hand to caress her face.
“I’m not finished yet, Chuck.” Blair sinabi softly. When we kissed in the limo I thought I was going to explode. That’s how much passion I felt for you. You were so tender and loving with me, and I knew I was different to you. You made me feel so wanted, and I never knew what that felt like before you. Nate sure as hell never made me feel that way. You’ve ruined me for anyone else Chuck, I will never pag-ibig anybody but you. And I’m not just saying that, it’s the truth.”
They looked at each other, neither saying anything. Blair noticed a dance floor to the side of their mesa and pulled Chuck up from his seat.
“Come dance with me.”
