The Mess that is Chuck Bass~Chapter 8

He was seething. “So that’s your big ploy to get me to come back to New York with you? To withhold sex from me?
Blair looked straight ahead. This wasn’t going how she planned, she had thought as soon as she đã đưa ý kiến there would be no sex until he came back with her, that he would agree immediately. But Chuck could be just as stubborn as she was.
“I’m serious, Chuck. There will be no sex until bạn decide to come back with me. I don’t want to see bạn waste your life here anymore.”
“Get out.” He đã đưa ý kiến in a low and venomous voice.
She looked at him in shock. “What do bạn mean get out?”
“Just what I said. Get the fuck out of here. I’m tired of all of these goddamn ultimatums of yours.” Chuck got out of giường and went to pull his pants back on. “Did bạn really think that just because you’re not going to screw me, I was magically going to run back to New York with you?”
“I just thought that it would make bạn want to come back with me even more.” Blair murmured. “I wasn’t trying to force bạn to do anything Chuck, I just thought that bởi me saying that, it would jolt bạn out of this stupid reality you’re in. bạn can’t stay here forever.”
He swaggered slowly over to her. “I can do whatever the fuck I want. bạn on the other hand, I want bạn to go back. Without me. I thought we finally understood each other, Blair. But then bạn decide to order me around like one of your minions. Fuck that.”
She reached out for him, but he backed away. “Chuck, don’t do this to me again.” Tears started to leak out of her eyes. “We’ve come so far in a short time; I can’t start all over again from square one.”
“Then don’t. Just leave me alone, for good.”
Blair closed her eyes tightly, willing the pain to ease that was creeping into her chest. “I’m sorry that I đã đưa ý kiến it. Can’t we just forget it?”
“No, we can’t.” Chuck’s voice softened a little. “I thought bạn were different from everybody else, Blair. bạn have always been there for me, but then bạn decide to order me around. I can’t take that, especially from you. I think it would be best if we stayed away from each other.”
She stormed to the door. “Is this how bạn want to play it? I’m the one that’s here for you, Chuck. Do bạn see anybody else that has come running to your rescue?” His face paled dramatically for a moment, but Blair continued on. “No that’s right, it’s just me. Are bạn sure bạn want to push me away again?”
His jaw was set stubbornly and he didn’t answer her. “Fine. I don’t why you’re doing this again. I tình yêu YOU! Doesn’t that mean anything to you?” She screamed at him.
He buried his head in his arms. “Those are just words Blair, just like your I’m not going to have sex with bạn line.”
Blair yanked the door open, but before she left she turned around to say one last thing. “This is not the last you’re going to see of me. No matter how many times bạn treat me like shit, I’m always still going to be here for you. Because I tình yêu you. Those are not just words to me, I would never say them if I didn’t mean them. Everyone is your life has được trao up on you, Chuck. Except me, and I never will. Just remember that.” She slammed the door closed behind her.
As soon as he head the door shut, Chuck looked up expecting to still see Blair. He knew that was stupid since he was the one that had pushed her away, but he couldn’t help it. He then did something he hadn’t done since the night of Bart’s funeral. He allowed himself to cry.

XOXO
“I’m coming home, Serena.” She told her friend exhaustedly through the phone.
“What?” Serena screeched.
Blair rubbed her temple. “It’s over, S. I can’t do it anymore.”
“I thought bạn were going to fight for Chuck no matter what, Blair.”
Her temper had been hanging on bởi a thin thread but at Serena’s words, it completely broke. “I did fight for Chuck! I haven’t heard from in two weeks, ever since he basically threw me out of his room. I’m not going to waste the rest of my life waiting for, Chuck Bass.”
Serena did her best to calm her down. “You guys were so close though, Blair. Everybody knows that bạn are both in tình yêu with each other. Can’t bạn work it out?”
Blair felt tears leaking out of the corners of her eyes again. She was so tired of crying over Chuck, it seemed like that was all she ever did. “I did everything that I could, Serena. If I knew that he was going to react like that to me withholding sex from him, I would never have done that. I really thought it would just make him come trang chủ quicker instead of making him furious with me. I’m just so tired, S.”
Serena could hear the pain in her voice. “Well if you’re coming home, I can’t wait to see you. It’s been too long since I’ve seen my best friend. But are bạn sure about this?”
Blair paced her hotel room while gripping her cell phone so hard in her hands that her knuckles started to turn white. “It’s time.” She đã đưa ý kiến simply. “I haven’t được trao up on Chuck; it’s just that if he wants to see me he’s going to have to come to me this time. He obviously doesn’t want to have anything to do with me anymore; I haven’t seen him in two weeks.”
Serena sighed. “Alright B, I can see that you’ve made up your mind. When are bạn leaving?”
“In a couple of days, I just need to have a few thêm days bởi myself and then I’ll be home. I’ll call bạn when I land at the airport and you’ll come pick me up, right?”
“Sure Blair, if bạn need anything before then don’t hesitate to call me. bạn know that I’m always going to be here when bạn need me. I tình yêu you, B.”
“Thank you, Serena.” Her voice was strangely hoarse from crying so much in the past couple of weeks. “I tình yêu bạn too. I’m sorry about bothering bạn so much recently. Dan’s not too mad, is he?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Blair. Dan doesn’t mind at all.”
“Okay. I’ll see bạn soon. Goodnight, Serena.”
Blair collapsed on the giường after she hung up the phone. She allowed herself to cry over Chuck one last time.

XOXO

Blair packed the rest of her belongings in her suitcase. She had a plane to catch in an hour, and she was already running behind schedule. She had missed her wakeup call in the morning, since all she did all night long was toss and turn while thinking about Chuck.
She was having một giây thoughts about leaving, but Blair knew she had too. She couldn’t just stay in France until he decided that he wanted her to be in his life. Because in all reality, that just may never happen.
Blair was just closing her suitcase when there was a knock on the door. She didn’t know who it could be; it couldn’t be the front bàn because she still had another 30 phút until check out time.
She went to go answer the door and saw Chuck leaning against the door frame. Her eyes greedily took in his appearance. “Chuck, what are bạn doing here?”
He ignored her question, but he moved past her and into her room. He looked around and noticed her suitcase. “So you’re leaving?”
His voice held a trace of hurt, but Blair ignored that. “Yes, I’m leaving. I think it’s past time, don’t you?”
Chuck finally looked at her, the first time since he had walked through the door. “I figured bạn would. That’s why I got bạn something. A little going away present.”
Blair noticed the little vàng box he was carrying for the first time. He tried to give it to her, but she pushed his hand away. “I don’t want anything, Chuck.” She đã đưa ý kiến as she went to sit on the bed, her legs were about to give out from the nerves of seeing him again.
“Blair. Come on. You’re going to make me feel bad, if bạn don’t accept my gift. bạn wouldn’t want to do that, would you?” Chuck had a little smirk on his face, and she was shocked to see it. She slowly reached out for his gift. It was like he had forgotten the past two and a half weeks. But he was back to the old Chuck; she could see it in his eyes.
She smiled hesitantly at him. Blair reached to undo the bow and she ripped paper off revealing a long rectangular box. She lifted the lid off and saw that there was a plane ticket nestled inside the tissue paper.
“You bought me a ticket back to New York?”
He grinned. “Yeah, I did. So do bạn like your gift?”
She tried to remain calm, she really did, but she knew it couldn’t be done. “Are bạn fucking insane? Do I like it? How would bạn feel if the person bạn loved was sending bạn away, like they didn’t even care if they ever saw bạn again?”
He quirked an eyebrow at her outburst. “Wait, Blair. bạn don’t understand.”
She walked over to him and poked in him in the chest with her fingernail. “No. bạn listen to me, Chuck. I’ve had it with all of your melodramatic breakdowns, but I’ve been so patient with you, and now you’re sending me away. If this is how bạn want it, then so be it. To hell with you.” Blair stomped over to the door and grabbed her suitcase. She was about to leave when he grabbed her arm tightly.
“Let me go.” She snarled.
Chuck placed a hand on the door and turned her around to face him. “Will bạn go sit the fuck down.” It wasn’t a câu hỏi but thêm of an order.
She glared at him angrily, but complied with his order. Chuck shook his head, but the grin was back on his face. “You didn’t let me explain before bạn flipped out.” He reached into his áo sơ mi pocket and pulled out something, and then he handed it to Blair.
She looked at it curiously but took it anyway. It was another plane ticket to New York. She was utterly bewildered now. Why did he have two tickets to New York? She knew in the back of her mind why, but her brain was working properly.
“I don’t understand, Chuck.”
He grazed his thumb over her cheek. “I’m coming back with you.”
Blair’s eyes widened in shock. “Are bạn serious?” He nodded, and that was all Blair needed to hear. She leapt into his arms, and kissed him all over his face. “Thank bạn so much, Chuck.”
He tightened his arms around her. “I was a fool the last time we saw each other Blair, I just didn’t like feeling ordered into doing something. But bạn were right, I need to go back and face everything and everybody for that matter. I need you, Blair.”
She looked up into his face and saw the fear still there in his eyes, but she knew he was doing this for her. The Chuck she knew and loved was back and nothing could make her happier than that. “It was my fault too, Chuck. I shouldn’t have made bạn feel like that after everything that has happened to you. So I take my share of the blame too. It’s going to be alright, and even if it’s not, I’m always going to be there for you.”
He smiled against her hair. “I finally feel as though it will be okay, Blair. And let me tell bạn I haven’t felt like that in a long time. As long as you’re going to be bởi my side, I know I can get through anything that comes my way.”
Blair broke the hug. “I wasn’t lying before Chuck; I’m never going to leave you. You’re too important to me and I could never give up on you.”
Chuck felt the emotion in his tim, trái tim and didn’t want to seem too much of a baby, so he looked down at the floor. He was still very uncomfortable hiển thị emotion at all, that was something that Bart had instilled in him. He looked at his watch, and knew that they had to hurry if they wanted to catch their plane on time.
He grabbed Blair’s hand and they walked to the door. Chuck never looked back. He turned to Blair. “Come on, let’s go home.”

To Be Continued…
