Dan pinned her down on their bed. He began laying light kisses all over and tickling her. She giggled at her husband as he straddled her thigh continuing to kiss and tickle her
"Dan, Dan stop it" She laughed struggling to get her husband off her.
"But Blair" Dan pouted before kissing her quickly on the lips and rolling off her to sit on the side of the bed. Blair sat up straightening her clothes and fixing her hair.
"Mr Humphrey, I did not take a day off work to be harassed by my husband. We have plans today" Blair said smugly before standing up and walking over to her vanity so she could apply some make up.
"Oh do we and what plans would they be? Because I was hoping to stay at home and spend the day in bed with my wife" Dan said lying back against the pillows.
"Well your wife has promised your sister and her best friend to babysit their son today. So get up Humphrey, we are taking Ethan to the zoo" Blair stood up and walked over to pull a pair of manolo blankis out.
"What are Jenny and Nate doing today then? And why can't my dad look after Ethan?" Dan sat up looking at Blair.
"Jenny and Nate have an appointment with the wedding planner and your dad is working at the gallery, so I offered to look after Ethan for the day. He is your nephew after all"
"I know and I love him, I just wanted to do something with just you today. You hardly ever get time off work and when you do you are always planning something or going away for spa weekends. I feel like we hardly spend anytime together anymore" Dan sighed heavily. It was true. All the time Blair had off she was either planning a society event or going away to check out the latest fashions around the world. Just 2 weeks ago she had flew to Paris for fashion week to get inspiration for her summer line. They had been married for just over a year and she seemed like she didn't have time for him already.
"I know but you know how hard work is at the moment. My mom has basically just left me to it and unless you want us to go bankrupt I have to work Dan, I'm sorry I can't be the stay at home wife you want me to be, but you knew what sort of person I was before you married me. I can't change who I am"
"I know that, look I don't want you to change; I love you just the way you are. I just miss you that's all" Dan stood up and kissed Blair's forehead as she wrapped her arms around his waist.
"I'm sorry that I spend so much time away as well. But we are spending the day together now just doing family things. It will be good practise for us for when you become a daddy and then maybe later on we can practice on making you a daddy" Blair smirked at Dan.
"Well Mrs Humphrey, when you put it like that, I will be more than happy to spend the day with my beautiful wife and adorable nephew"
Serena stepped off of the private Bass jet. Carrying only her Chanel handbag and a small pink woolly hat. She was glad to be back in New York after all this time. This was her home after all and this is where she belonged. She took in her surroundings, she was nervous to be back. To have to face the people she had ran away from all those years ago. She wondered if everyone was still around, if he was still around.
"Uncle Chuck come on, I want to see your big office"
Serena turned around to see her blond haired, brown eyed daughter dragging Chuck off the plane. Chuck was holding a pink bag, Barbies, teddies and her daughter's favourite doll.
"Scar, it would have been nice if you could have helped me carry some of this junk. Then maybe I would have been quicker getting off the plane" Chuck huffed as the little girl giggled her 4 year old laugh, just like her mother.
"Mommy, when do I get to meet Grandma Lily?" Serena sighed, thinking about having to face her mother.
"Soon, baby, soon" Chuck glanced at Serena's response as he handed the toys to the driver outside the airport.
Spotted: Our favourite It Girl and Our very own UES badboy getting off the Bass private jet at JFK. Has our badboy gone soft? We knew you liked dolls C, but we didn't think it was the plastic sort. And since when did S have a mini me? The miniature blond looked every bit her mother but without her eyes. Is this S and C's love child? They do say, the family that plays together, stays together… keep me posted
Xoxo Gossip Girl
Dan walked up to Jenny and Nate's apartment holding a sleeping 11 month old Ethan. The mini Nate look alike had fell asleep after a busy day at the zoo. His auntie Blair had spoilt the little boy all day. After she had brought him his second chocolate ice cream and the little boy had gone hyperactive, he had come down from his high and was now sparked out on Dan's shoulder. Blair was behind them pushing the pram full of various toys and teddies from the zoo and Ethan's diaper bag. Dan went to knock on the door as Nate quickly opened it and nearly bumping into Dan.
"Oh hey man, wow you two must have really worn him out. He hardly sleeps anymore, he's teething again and is keeping me and Jenny up all night" Nate chuckled lightly stroking Ethan's hair.
"Yeah he's a handful. It was Blair that worn him out the most, especially with all the ice cream. Where are you off to?"
"Oh diapers. Jenny forgot to pick some up at the store, she's inside. See you two in a bit" Nate smiled at Blair as he walked towards the elevator.
"Hey Jenny" Blair called out softly.
Jenny stepped out of her and Nate's bedroom.
"Oh hey guys, how's my little man?" Jenny smiled as she walked over to Dan.
"Shhh, he's sleeping and from what Nate told us, you two haven't been getting that much sleep because of him so I wouldn't wake him if I was you"
"True, I have so much work to do and he never lets me do any when he's awake. Blair do you want to make some coffee if that's okay? While me and Dan put him to bed"
"That's fine Jen" Blair smiled at her sister in law. She had become to love Jenny as not only a sister but a best friend as well.
Dan followed Jenny along the corridor to Ethan's room. Dan walked over to the crib and placed the little boy gently down while Jenny shut the door behind them.
"Have you seen gossip girl?" She looked up at her big brother.
"No I haven't, is she even about still? And aren't you a bit too old for gossip girl, your twenty two, nearly married and a mother, you shouldn't be wasting your time with that"
Jenny rolled her eyes at her big brother.
"She's back Dan"
"Who's back?" Dan looked confused.
"Serena, Dan. She's back" Dan's jaw dropped. He couldn't believe that after 6 years she was back. He had moved on. Everyone had moved on. She couldn't just walk back into their lives and expect everything to be fine again.
"S-so what? I have moved on and so has she. I'm happy with Blair now" Dan glanced around the room, avoiding eye contact with his sister.
"She was with Chuck, He's back as well and there was a little girl with them. She had a child with Chuck Bass" Dan's jaw dropped once again. He couldn't believe that the girl who had stolen his heart for the first time had conceived a child with the devil himself.
"You have got to be kidding me. Wow. I would have never expected that"
"Well I just thought I would warn you. I mean yours and Blair's first loves have returned as a couple. I just thought that you could tell Blair before one of you have an awkward run in with Chuck or Serena" Dan sighed.
"Yeah I suppose I'm going to have to tell her. Thanks Jen"
The elevator door pinged open. Chuck stepped out first into the Van der Bass penthouse. He looked around the place he used to call home but hadn't visited in 6 years. Serena stepped out holding Scarlett by the hand. The young mom was nervous about being back here. Chuck glanced around at Serena, knowing how nervous she was. She had a lot of explaining to do.
"Charles" Lily came around the corner seeing her adopted son. Chuck and Serena turned to face lily.
"And S…Serena" Lily was speechless. She hadn't seen her daughter in 6 years. She had received the odd email from her every couple of months but that was the most she got. Lily knew that Serena had been living in LA in the Bass penthouse. Chuck had been running the LA Bass industries office so she knew Serena had someone to look after her. Lily looked carefully at her daughter and could see a small being behind Serena's leg. Lily didn't need to ask who this was; she knew it was her granddaughter by just looking at her. She was the spitting image of Serena when she was 5. But was her adopted son the father of this small child. There was no bass features in this little girl so whose was she?
"I can't believe your back and who is this Serena?" Lily raised her eyebrow. She wanted answers.
"Well Lily it was time to come home. We couldn't hide out in LA for much longer" Chuck looked at Serena reassuringly.
"Mom, this is Scarlett, she's your granddaughter. Scarlett baby, this is your grandma Lily" Scarlett peeked her head around from Serena's leg to get a better look at this woman. Scarlett stepped away from her mother and ran towards her grandma and hugged her leg. Lily cautiously wrapped her arms around the little girl and stroked her soft curly blonde hair. Scarlett stepped away from Lily and took her hand.
"I cannot believe you never told me about her Serena. Did you not think I would like to know my own grandchild?" Lily shook her head tears beginning to form in her eyes.
"I know mom, I'm sorry but can we not speak about this in front of her. I will explain everything I swear" Serena looked at her mom pleading.
"Charles could you please take Scarlett upstairs to your old room please. I need to talk to my daughter" Charles nodded and walked towards Lily.
"Come on Scar, I will show you my old room where we can play" Chuck held his hand out for Scarlett to take and led the little girl upstairs.
Lily turned on her Louboutins heels and walked towards the living room in silence. Serena followed her and sat on the couch opposite Lily. None of the women said anything not wanting to be the first to talk. Serena got impatient and decided to break the silence.
"I'm so sorry mom. I really am. I knew I should have told you but I didn't want to risk everyone finding out about her. I needed to do what I had to, to protect her mom" Serena sighed. Lily looked at her daughter. She had really grown up and taken responsibility for her actions. Lily was proud.
"Serena, you know I would do anything to protect you and this family. You could have told me, you could have given me the opportunity to know my grandchild. I have missed so much out of her life and your life. I don't even know anything about her. Why did you leave Serena?"
"I'm sorry mom, I truly am but she is the best thing that has ever happened to me. She is just like me even though I was afraid she would be corrupted by Chuck but so far she is fine. She is 5 years old. She was born on April 29th 2010. I have looked after her since day one. There have been no Nannies to help me. Just me, her and Chuck. I had to leave mom. I couldn't have her here. I didn't want her to be born into this mess, so I left and Chuck came with me and he has looked after us ever since. He's been great"
"Well I'm shocked that you had her so young but she is beautiful. I just can't get over this. I'm afraid you and Chuck are going to have to tell Bart yourselves. He will not be pleased that Chuck has been lying to him all this time about Scarlett but I'm sure he will come around" Serena burst out laughing at her mom. Lily looked confused.
"Mom, that's gross. Scarlett isn't Chuck's daughter. He just helped me when I was in trouble and he needed to escape too. It worked out best for both of us. He ran Bass industries from LA. We lived together in the penthouse and we looked after each other. He was able to concentrate on his career and I was able to be a good mom. He has helped me out loads and I will be eternally grateful for it. He has been an amazing uncle to her and she loves him loads" Serena truly loved Chuck as a Brother now. Lily could clearly tell.
"Thank god, Bart will be pleased. A lot has changed around here since you have been gone but I hope you and Charles will be able to fit back into normal life again. Serena, who is Scarlett's father then if she's not Charles? "
