In Your Arms, Here I Lay – Chapter Two

“Waldorf, I need 당신 to wake up. I know what I said and did earlier was wrong, but I…I…I 사랑 you, Blair. And I don’t know whether I’ll have the guts to tell 당신 this later, but I do, Blair. I 사랑 you.” Tears fell down his cheek, as he held her hand in his, not letting go for a second.

“I 사랑 당신 too,” a weak voice replied from the bed.

He looked up, only to meet the eyes of the beautiful, but broken brunette, he loved. “Blair?”

She smiled. “I take it that you’re happy to see me, Bass.”

He chuckled, and removed a stray strand of hair from her face. “You know I am.” He stood up and took a 좌석 다음 to her on the bed. Blair tried to adjust herself into a sitting position, only to wince at the pain of doing so. Chuck saw her wince and immediately, his face turned into one of guilt.

“What’s wrong?” she asked.

“This is all my fault,” he whispered.

Blair shook her head. “No, it’s not, Chuck. It’s my own fault. I should’ve watched where I was going.”

“That’s where you’re wrong, Blair. If I hadn’t gotten 당신 dethroned; if I didn’t use Amanda to make Serena jealous, to make her become ‘Queen’ again, 당신 wouldn’t even be here.”

Blair put her hand under his chin, lifting it so she could look into his eyes again. “Hey,” she cooed, “I don’t care about the 제목 of ‘Queen B’; I just was hurt 의해 you. I mean, I 로스트 Serena, I 로스트 you, I 로스트 the stupid title, and I 로스트 Marcus to that bitch-of-a-Duchess Beaton. Although, I really never cared about Marcus…”

“Wait,” he interrupted her. “You 로스트 Marcus?”

She nodded.

“Why didn’t 당신 tell me? The only reason I did all of that -this- was because of him. I wanted to hurt 당신 that way you’d know how I felt –how I feel-, Blair. To lose something. I never meant for this to happen; I just wanted 당신 to come back to me. I just wanted you. I wanted to be with you.”

Blair put a finger up to his mouth to silence him. “It doesn’t matter; that’s all in the past, Chuck. 당신 have me now.”
He smiled a genuine smile.

“So?” Blair asked. “What are 당신 waiting for? Isn’t this the part where you’re supposed to 키스 me?”

Chuck smirked and did as he was offered, told - commanded, and he kissed her right then and there.

“I 사랑 you, Blair Cornelia Waldorf. Never, and I repeat, never forget that.”

She laughed. “And I 사랑 당신 too, Charles Bartholomew Bass. Always know that.”

They kissed once more...gently. Chuck knew how fragile Blair was. Especially, in the state she was in now. “I 사랑 you, I 사랑 you, I 사랑 you…” He kept telling her those three words, eight letters, until he stopped moments later, when they fell asleep in each other’s arms, on the hospital bed, knowing that they would both always remember this moment. Always and forever.

TBC.


A/N: Okay. So I told everyone I’d do some kind of flashback thing 또는 something about what happened to Blair this chapter. Well, ummm, I didn’t exactly keep my promise, LOL. Sorry. *apologetic look* But I already started chapter three and I swear that you’ll find out what happened in the 다음 chap! Anyway, I’d like to say thanks to all my lovely reviewers who reviewed the prologue and chapter one! Thanks!

P.S: Reviews are highly appreciated. :)

P.S.S: This story takes place between 2x04 & 2x05. Basically, after school (the 일 she's dethroned), Blair decides to visit Chuck at the palace and have a nice "chat" with him. Then things kinda - wait why am I telling 당신 this, LOL? I guess now you'll have to figure out the rest when the 다음 chapter's up.

당신 know 당신 사랑 me (I had to say it, ahha),
