Chair Tales S02E15- The Wedding Fate

THIS IS A SPECIAL LONG EPISODE, BECAUSE IT's THE WEDDING DAY!!!

...The wedding has arrived and everything is chaos, but in a good way.

Serena/Dan's house is already full of people, all helping Serena get ready.

Blair is the maid of honour and is Serena's sidekick for the day. Blair has of course been living at Serena's house since her and Chuck broke up.

Chuck has already made plans to leave New Haven after the wedding is over. He would have left immediately but doesn’t want to let Dan down bởi refusing to be his best man and not attending the wedding. Dan is the only person Chuck has spoken to, other than his argument with Serena in the morning. Dan hasn't mention the "Blair" word to Chuck since straight after the break up because Chuck didn't want to talk about it.

Blair has been practically depressed, the break up has really destroyed her, especially since she was pregnant and was certain that the baby was Chuck's, even though there was a little doubt in her mind. She just wanted to rewind everything and make it all go away. But she has put on a happy face for the past ngày hoặc two just to make Serena's wedding a good day, she didnt want Serena to be worrying about her on her wedding day.

Blair and Serena are in Serena's dressing room, they have had their make up done bởi the best, and obviously most famous, make-up artists they could find.

S: Ok....it's time B....im going to put the dress on! (they both get excited)
B: I cant wait to see bạn in it! Its going to look perfect!
BC(Bridal consultant): ok, why dont bạn undress so we can get your wedding dress on.
S: Omg.....can we go in the tiếp theo room, i want the dress to be a surprise to Blair!
BC: Sure...ill take the dress in (she picks up the wedding dress and goes into the tiếp theo room)
S: B, this is it...the tiếp theo time bạn see me ill be a proper bride!
B: (the hug) I know! I cant wait....i cant believe its finally happening!
S: I know (she walks towards the door) Ill see bạn in a while maid of honour!
B: Yeah...

Serena leaves and Blair sits down in front of the dressing bàn mirror, just staring at her self for a moment. Serena and Dan...getting married. It was ok for them, they were having the life they always planned, the life they always dreamt of. And her? Her's had fallen apart....what did she have...nothing...just a baby, who would never know it's father. tears started running down her face...she had held them back for too long, she just allowed herself to let out a little cry....it should have been one of the best days of her life...but it was the saddest. She knew she'd have to see Chuck again today, she had seen him when he came over in the morning but he had barely looked at her, at the wedding it would be the first time they would properly see each other since the break up...she'd have to be in the same place as him...would he even look at her, would he talk to her...what would happen? Just then the Bridal Consultant entered the dressing room so Blair quickly wiped her face dry before turning around and seeing Serena walk in, the most beautiful bride she had ever seen, luckily Blair could let a few thêm tears escape and pretend they were tears of joy. She raced up to Serena who was beaming of delight.

B: Omg...S...you look amazing....its the most beautiful dress ever! (they hug)
S: B...dont cry...you'll make me start!...(Blair wipes her face once more) its so beautiful Blair...the dress...I cant wait to see Brooklyn’s face when he sees me in this dress!
B: Omg! bạn called him Brooklyn! That’s my nickname for him! (they both laugh)
S: I couldn't help it, and i knew it would make bạn laugh!
B: (giggles) I know, i cant wait to see his face either! He will die!

Later on that day. At the Church.

It's the wedding.

All the guests are patiently sitting in their seats, Dan is awaiting the arrival of his bride, standing patiently tiếp theo to Chuck and Eric at the Altar.

D: What time is it?
C: Dont worry Humphrey...she'll be here.
D: She's late. (gets agitated) what if she's having một giây thoughts?
C: Patience lonely boy....it's typical of the Bride to be late to her wedding...typical of Serena.
D: They should be here bởi now!

Just then the doors lung lay, swing open and all the guest turn their heads back to look, no one can be seen yet. Dan and Chuck watch closely.

Then Blair appears, looking stunning. Her hair curly with a maroon diamanté headband, a maroon dress (go to my pictures on my thông tin các nhân page to see a picture of the dress Blair would be wearing).

She was beautiful. There was no other word for it...absolutely perfect...She caught Chucks eye....it was inevitable that he would go weak at the knees. She was meant to be his. That woman standing there, the one everybody was looking at, she was meant to be his. It only took a một giây for their eyes to meet. She looked for him the moment the doors opened...she saw him watching her before he quickly looked away. Why did he look away? For a moment it was as though they were strangers to each other, only a few feet of distance between them but really they were worlds apart. She couldn't cry, not here, in front of everyone...just then she was joined bởi Jenny, and two of the other bridesmaids, both Serena's Những người bạn from college. They stood behind (go to my thông tin các nhân page, pictures to see what the bridesmaid's including jenny would be wearing), and Blair, standing in front, led them towards the altar, slowly, with bouquets in hand.

They were face to face...standing directly opposite each other. Chuck was avoiding her line of sight, hoping he could just pretend she wasn't there. The dress she was wearing did a good job at hiding the baby bump, but from up close it was obvious she was pregnant. But he didn't care, it wasn't his baby, and she wasn't his either. Luckily the pianist interrupted his thoughts, as the âm nhạc for the bride’s entrance began to play. It was then that the bride appeared. Lilly arrived first and then Serena swayed in behind her and took her mother's hand. She was enchanting, the dress was beautiful and looked perfect on her (again, go to the pictures on my thông tin các nhân page to see what her wedding dress would be like!). Dan almost did die at the sight of her. Chuck let out a little laugh at Dan's exclamation after seeing his beautiful bride, "Bass, hold me, I think im going to faint".

Everyone’s eyes were on Serena who was being led up the isle bởi her mother. It was a magical moment.

Later on that ngày at the Wedding reception.

The boys, Lilly and Jenny are having a chat over drinks.

D: It has been the best ngày of my life and i know its only going to get better.
C: Well...most first timers say that...maybe bạn should ask Lilly for Lời khuyên of how to survive a marriage...
L: (nudges Chuck who is standing tiếp theo to her) Charles! bạn little devil! if bạn must know, i already have được trao them that advice! (they all laugh)
R(Rufus): Yeah, Just dont end up like your parents...(they all laugh)
C: Dont end up like any of our parents! (he laughs)

Blair approaches them.

B: Hi, .....have any of bạn seen my mother? (As soon as Blair opens her mouth to speak, Chuck puts down his drink and walks off)
L: No dear, sorry, have bạn tried the ladies room?
B: Umm... (Watches Chuck walking away) no...i guess i should try there.

Blair walks off towards the ladies room, Dan follows after Chuck and catches up with him.

D: xin chào man...off somewhere?
C: I was just getting a drink, bạn want one?
D: Sure.
C: (Picks up two glasses from a passing waiters tray, hands one to Dan) So bạn had fun last night? I've never seen bạn so drunk.
D: Yeah, from what i remember, it was probably the craziest night of my life....thanks.
C: It's a pleasure, bạn deserved it, all these years of being a good guy, one night of being bad may have done bạn some good!
D: Ok...well maybe we should just keep last night to ourselves then! Between the boys.
C: Well after today bạn wont have to worry about that...like i said, im leaving.
D: (is taken aback) Your really leaving?
C: Yeah. tonight. Wherever the plane takes me, i have an open ticket.
D: I thought bạn were just angry...i didnt think bạn were really going to leave.
C: I only stayed to fulfil my duty of being your best man, tonight im leaving.
D: New York?
C: Maybe...some day...right now i dont really know where im going...and it's best if bạn dont either...i dont want anyone finding me. New place, new people, new life.
D: Look man...whatever happened, does it really matter? bạn tình yêu her.
C: I dont tình yêu anyone.
D: But bạn tình yêu her....and she loves you.
C: Dont care...look...me and you, we've had this weird tình yêu hate relationship, but ever since we came here to New Haven, we've grown up a lot and you've been a good friend to me....thats why i stayed for the wedding, but dont think bạn can stop me from leaving tonight. no one can. Anyway. It's getting late so i should probably go...
D: What now? We haven't had the photographer in yet.
C: Umm..i think i'll pass on that, I dont really belong in your photos.
D: Of course bạn do!
C: No, im leaving now. (offers a handshake) take care Humphrey.
D: You're not going to say bye to Serena?
C: She waved bye to me the moment she turned her back on me. (still has his hand out) so this is it...you wont see me again.
D: (shakes his hand and then they hug quickly) your making a mistake.
C: Good luck in life. (Proceeds to walk off)
D: We can fix this! (Chuck looks back but then turns away and carries on walking off)

Later on Dan finds Serena.


D: Serena...
S: xin chào honey...my husband! (she puts her arms around his neck and kisses him)
D: Hey...Chuck is leaving.
S: What do bạn mean? I know he đã đưa ý kiến he wanted to leave...
D: No, he's really leaving...for certain...tonight.
S: Look, he'll probably be back soon, and if not we should probably just give him không gian and then get in touch after a while and try and get him to come back.
D: No, Serena...he's leaving for good. This is serious. He didn't tell me where he was going.
S: He's going to New York.
D: No, your not listening...he is not going to New York...he is not coming back, he doesn't want to see us again, he's leaving for good, it really is over this time...he's gone, we wont see him again.
B: See who again? (Blair has overheard the last part of the conversation)
S: (looks at Dan) ummm...Blair...
D: Chuck...he's gone.
B: Gone? What do bạn mean.
D: He's got a plane ticket for tonight...he's leaving and never coming back. We wont see him again.
B: (swallows back a lump in her throat) where.... is he going?
D: He didn't say...he doesn't want anyone to know....Blair...He's leaving tonight...
B: So...it's probably for the best...excuse me..(she walks off)
D: She didn't mean that...(looks at Serena) She didnt mean it.
S: Dan...i dont know what to do anymore....maybe we should just let go...hey...it's our wedding day...we should be having fun!
D: (nods his head) I know i haven't always been a big Chuck fan....or a Blair người hâm mộ for that matter...but he could have left the ngày they broke up...but he stayed to be my best man...me, asking him to be my best man, it meant a lot to him, it probably made him feel wanted, like someone actually needed him, they always say it's an honour to be asked to be someone’s best man, because out of all the people bạn know bạn chose only one, it must have made him feel special....like he was important to us...me, you, Blair, Chuck...we were like a family.
S: I know...but things change....Chuck has made his choice...we should respect that. Maybe he really doesn't want to stay.

* * * * * * *

Later.

It was time for Dan and Serena to exchange wedding gifts.
They both sit with everyone gathered around, Dan is going first.

D: Ok, so me and Blair went shopping...yes i know...i actually went shopping with Blair...now thats something i wouldn't have imagined in my wildest dreams!
B: Get on with it Brooklyn!
D: Ok...so here goes...Eric can bạn bring it?

Eric wonders off and then returns with a human sized wrapped up object, Serena rips off the wrapping paper to reveal a large tường painting.

D: Serena, this is a painting of a New York street, at night...if bạn look closely, you'll see the two of standing (he points to two figures on the painting) well...actually we're kissing.
S: Omg! I dont believe it! It's a painting of our first kiss!
D: Precisely! I wanted to give bạn something that bạn could always look at and remember our first kiss...it was such a special moment for me....for us...i want us to remember it for ever.
S: (she hugs him tightly and gets excited) I tình yêu it! It's beautiful! Dan! I tình yêu it! Its so...perfect! This is definitely going up on our bedroom wall! (they hug again, everyone else cheers and compliments the painting)
D: Ok so now its your turn...
S: (gets a little embarrassed) Well...mine is a little personal...it's something special...something i've never attempted before in my life...it was only when i met bạn that i started seeing beauty in things like these (points at the painting) art, poetry...stuff like this is what your made of and i know how much bạn tình yêu đọc and writing....so i thought id give bạn something to read...(she takes out a decorated book and tells him to open it)
D: (he reads the inner tiêu đề page) Poems and memoirs of the life of Dan and Serena. Written bởi Serena Humphrey...wait...you wrote poetry?
S: Yes...about us and all the different things that have happened in our lives.... that way we can always look back and read about our life...and in the future our children can read about us too. Open the first poem...read it.
D: (he turns the page and reads the poem out loud.)

Since the first time I met you,
I couldn't seem to forget you, (he looks at her and smiles)
Neither your coyness nor your innocence
hoặc your complete lack of confidence (everyone giggles)
I was extrovert, affluent and elite
Living in a posh hotel on 82nd street
Who knew our two worlds would collide
Brooklyn meets the Upper East Side
Our first ngày and that silly wave (Serena, Dan and Jenny laugh)
There was something about bạn that I began to crave
Your sarcasm and that sense of humour
And the fact that bạn ignored all the rumours
bạn didn't care about the reputation I held
Well bạn did at first, but eventually we gelled
Who knew back then that it would come to this?
A promising future and today's wedding bliss
I still remember the night we first kissed
From then, it was your lips I couldn't resist
And lately I seem to find,
That you're always on my mind.
I feel so happy when I’m around you,
And I thank God that I found you.
And right from the very start,
It was bạn i held close to my heart.
I'm so glad that we did meet,
For (he pauses) now my life is complete.
So I hope bạn enjoy this wedding present
And I pray that we live in eternal content


There is silence for a brief moment before Dan holds Serena in his arms.

D: That was the most beautiful poem I’ve ever read and I tình yêu bạn so much, (they kiss) I can’t wait to read the rest! (They hug and Kiss and everyone cheers for them)

They continue to kiss.

Later on.

The photographer has been and gone, they have taken all their professional các bức ảnh and now Eric and Jenny have their own máy quay, máy quay phim and are making their own video. They approach Blair who is sitting with some wine drinking.

J: Hey...isn't alcohol bad for the baby?
E: (filming her baby bump) Yeah, bạn should cut back on that. (he and Jenny giggle)
B: (stands up and slams the glass down) Why doesn't everyone just leave me alone! (Storms off)

Blair passes Dan and Serena on her way out, Dan grabs her arm.

D: He'll be leaving for the airport soon.... bạn can stop him. (Long silence)
B: (almost in tears) What if i don’t get trang chủ in time?
D: Eric can drive bạn there now...ill go get him (he goes to get Eric)
B: S...i don’t know what to say to him (cries in Serena's arms)
S: Hey, just tell him bạn dont want him to go, tell him how bạn feel.
B: He wont forgive me.
S: There's no harm in trying.
E: Someone need a ride? (Dan and Eric return)
D: Take Blair home, go...now.

Blair and Eric rush to Blair's house to stop Chuck from leaving.

Once The car has parked up at Blair's house, Eric walks her to the door.

E: I'll wait outside for you.
B: Thanks for bringing me here, but bạn don’t have to wait.
E: Are bạn sure?
B: Yeah, thanks a lot...you should probably get back to your sisters wedding...i'll see bạn soon.
E: Good Luck.

Eric returns to the car and Blair opens the front door. She hadn't been trang chủ since the break up but luckily the code to get in was still the same. It was dark inside. All the lights switched off. She had the worst feeling that he had already left and that she was wasting her time here when she could have gone straight to the airport and stopped him in time. She went into the lounge, it was the only room that had the light switched on. He had to be in there. She walked in. Empty? Not quite.

There was an envelope on the table. She walked over to the bàn and picked it up. "For Blair" it read. She immediately ripped it open and began reading...

I remember when our tình yêu story first began. The first thing that i thought was, she's the one...i've found her...but i'll never get her.
I was Chuck Bass, everyone's idea of a failure...even bạn couldn't face being in tình yêu with me.
bạn were too good for me and I was too wrong for bạn but that was exactly why we were perfect for each other. We went through things that most couples would never go through, but we got through nevertheless and i thought it only made us stronger.
Yes i made mistakes, many of them that will stay with me for the rest of my life when i blame myself for being the underlying reason why it ended so badly.
The person I am today is a whole different person to the one bạn met in high school, i changed for you, for us. Yet bạn could never see that, bạn still made those traditional accusations against me, neglect, conceit, heartlessness, unfaithfulness...
I took it all,. because i loved you. I really did.
But now, i dont think I could ever look at bạn again...you were the unfaithful one. Your insecurities will always lead bạn away from me. It's like history repeating itself...you accuse me of cheating so bạn make up for it bởi being unfaithful yourself. But this time amnesia wont make me forget this...nothing can. What bạn have done is unforgivable.
It was only last week that i was looking phía trước, chuyển tiếp to having a baby with you, but now it makes me sick to even think that i considered that thing my child...not only do i hate the fact that your having that scum’s child, i hate the fact that bạn could have looked at another guy whilst i was with you, how bạn could have found comfort and tình yêu in arms that didn't belong to me, how bạn could have shared a giường with someone else and slept with him! How bạn had the audacity to continue a relationship with this guy and pretend that everything was smooth sailing between us, how bạn lied through your teeth about me being the father, how bạn could go on and live bởi my side when bạn were with this other guy...we planned things for the baby...you made out like it was the best thing to ever happen to us...acted as if there was nothing going on! When the whole bloody time it wasn't even mine! bạn weren't even mine, i've been sharing bạn with some other guy!
The thing that hurts me the most is that i thought my life was complete. Everything seemed to be falling into place. I finally had bạn and i thought we were having a baby...you were the only person who meant anything to me in this world...i had never put as much effort into anything as much as i had put into our relationship, i dont know what i did to deserve such pain.
But i give up on trying...i give up on everything...im leaving everything...i dont care about the house, the business, you. I dont care any more, .im leaving for good this time and you'll never see me again. bạn can have your stupid fling and his baby...if thats what bạn want then go ahead and have it, i wont hold bạn back an longer. This time it really is over.
Just remember one thing Blair, we had something real…something neither of us will ever have again with anyone else...one ngày you'll look back at this and wish that bạn still had me…but i'll never look back, Chuck âm bass, tiếng bass, bass as bạn know him, is no more. bạn wont find me, so dont bother trying to contact me hoặc look for me because as far as i am concerned, bạn and that baby of yours are dead to me.

She was in momentary shock...the final words of his letter kept ringing in her ears...she could almost hear his voice saying those words to her..."your dead to me"...she fell to the floor, she could hardly breathe. It really was over. He was gone. For good. She let out a cry but it wasn't enough, it didn’t make her feel any better...she screamed and cried all at the same time, it was the worst feeling she had ever felt...she had Mất tích him.

Luckily Eric had figured that Chuck might have already left for the airport and was expecting Blair to run back outside and need a ride there, he didn’t expect to hear the screams he could hear now. He raced into the house looking for Blair. He found her, lying on the floor motionless. He quickly sat on the floor tiếp theo to her lifting her up.

E: Blair?

Her face was red, she had stopped herself from crying but when she saw Eric she couldn't help but cry some more, he didn’t know what to do, he had no idea what was going on with her and Chuck, so he just held her to in his arms and tried to comfort her while she just cried.

END SCENE
