Chapter 9

3 days later…

'Auch'…

'You're such a baby'

'It hurts'

'Well if you'd sit still and do as I ask you, there wouldn't be a problem at all'

'Sorry,' he hesitated, 'Lilly…'

'Here you go' she opened the door and helped him out of his wheelchair. He got to his bed and laid down on it. He grimaced as another shot of pain went all the way through his spine. He let out a sigh. Not an 'I'm so tired'-sigh as Lilly expected but a 'I'm having lots of girl-issues and I'm desperate'-sigh.

But she knew better, Chuck wouldn't open up to her but she figured he might say something to Jenny. Little did she know Jenny was the cause of his problems.

Auch, ahh, oohh, iihh, everything hurts, every single bone in his body cracked, every muscle ached, every nerve twisted, every single thing that could hurt, did. He took the book off his standard and started to flip open some pages; To kill a Mockingbird, his favourite book once. But now he could care less. He read the first 3 sentences and then closed the book and put it back on his nightstand.

'Hi'

'Hey' he responded

'Lily sent me in'

'I figured'

She smiled

'How are you doing today?'

'Better than yesterday'

'Good, well I'm gonna go then'

'yeah'

Jenny walked out, opening the door.

'Jenny?!' he said firmly

She closed the door.

'I'm sorry' he said

Jenny rushed to his bedside and put her hands on his

'What were you thinking? You could've gotten yourself killed'

'Oh that'

'What other thing is there?'

'Well that I kissed you obviously' he continued on rambling about how weak he was in that moment and blahblahblah…blahblahblahblah………… Wait what? That wasn't one of those weird dream-in a dream- scenes like in the movies? That actually happened? Oh no, what was I thinking? What was he thinking? What? Wha—Auch!

'Are you evening listening?'

'You pinched me'

'And you were dreaming'

'Thinking, I was thinking, that is until you pinched me'

'You should be lucky you didn't get punched like Nate' he chuckled

'Wait, did you punch Nate?'

'That's what I was saying; I heard about him and Blair and I was so mad that I went to fight with him and then I just reset my drinking record and then Serena's old dealer came buy and we took a few straws and well you know the rest…'

'You did drugs?'

'Chuck Bass is not proud'

'Jenny Humphrey isn't either'

'Sorry I let you down'

'What, no! We're not even friends Chuck'

'Lookey here, Mr. I'm-too-good-to-stick-to-a-plan-and-I'd-rather-punch-someone-in-the-face-and-almost-die'

'Guess I deserved that'

'Nate told me… Are you really that jealous'

'You're supposed to be mine Blair'

'You know that's not true Al Capone, you are mine, and until you do what I asked you to do, you won't even be that'

'I won't backstab Jenny'

'From the looks of the conversation you just had with her, you won't be needing to worry about that'

'Blair'

'Chuck, Chuck, Chuck, don't you know by now? I'm Blair Waldorf and I make the rules'

'Jenny isn't a part of this'

'You're not telling me you actually like her do you? I mean that is so last year Vanessa'

'This is different'

'Why is that?'

'Because that time I went through with the game, but this time I won't'

'You can't disobey me'

'Bite me'

'If you do this, I just might'

'Don't tempt me…' he leaned in closer to her, almost kissing her but instead whispering into her ear, 'you won't fool me twice Blair Waldorf'

'Fine, I don't need you for this anyway'

'I wouldn't be too sure about that'
