Previous Chapters:Chapter 1
Blair stepped out of the bath tub as she finished off towelling herself. She was feeling refreshed and much better than an hour before, when her stomach had dropped at the site of her dorm room. She was appalled that NYU had made on-campus accommodation compulsory for first years, especially when the University didn’t even make any single rooms available for them. So now she was stuck sharing her room with some commoner for the next year. Blair sniffed distastefully at the thought and slipped into a green summer dress she had bought at the Hamptons. She felt her lips tugging into a curve when she remembered how Chuck had insisted on helping her slip out of every dress she had tried on at the shops, and they had giggled behind the backs of the red faced sales assistants who had pretended not to hear the moans coming out of the dressing rooms.
It was amazing how even thinking about Chuck managed to bring a smile on to her face every time. Over the summer, he had show her a side of himself that she (or, she smugly suspected, anyone else) had never seen before. She would wake up in the morning to find him gazing down at her with his warm brown eyes, his fingers tracing soft patterns down her collarbone. They would stroll along the park and he would suddenly turn to tickle her with a stray feather, and they would some how end up laying on the grass, tears of laughter streaming down their faces. He would intertwine his fingers with hers as they watched the sun set over the beach, whispering ‘I love you so much Blair’ into her ears. The hurt and the pain of the last two years had vanished, and Blair couldn’t remember a time she had felt so happy.
Feeling like she was on top of the world, Blair stepped out of the bathroom - and found herself face to face with the she-devil herself.
“Blair!” a glowing Georgina flung herself at a speechless Blair, encompassing her in a bear hug. At the feel of Georgina’s arms around her, Blair snapped into action.
“Get off me!” she said, shoving Georgina away with both hands. “What are you doing here?”
Georgina beamed. “Haven’t you heard? I’m your new roommate,” she said, her full red lips curving over each word. But there was a glint of something else behind those pale blue eyes.
Blair blanched. “You have got to be kidding me. Ooh no no no, this is not happening.” She stumbled onto one of the beds and slumped down, shutting her eyes in an effort to block out the nightmare unfolding before her.
“Isn’t this exciting B? You and I are going to have so much fun together! I have so much love in my heart for you.”
Blair snapped her eyes open and glared at the other girl. “Let’s get things cleared, shall we? You stay on your side of the room and do whatever it is that you do these days, roofing unsuspecting freshmen at dorm parties or collecting donations for the Salvation Army, I don’t care. But you and I won’t ever be doing anything together - understood?”
Not waiting for the other girl to answer, Blair grabbed her phone from the dresser and stormed out, slamming the door shut on her way.
Behind the closed door Georgina Sparks smirked. “Oh don’t worry Blair, when I’m done with you, no one would ever want to have anything to do with you.”
_________________________
Blair dialled Chuck’s number for the tenth time in the last five minutes. Engaged. Again. Fuming, she slammed the phone shut and scowled at the ducks who were innocently waddling away on the nearby grass. Chuck should have an emergency phone line dedicated just for her - didn’t Obama have one for Michelle?
“Blair?” a voice behind her asked.
She turned around. “Humphrey?”
“Hey,” Dan said, smiling awkwardly. “Uh, how was your summer?”
Blair ignored him and shifted her eyes towards the girl standing next to him. “Vanessa.” She scrunched up her mouth like she was trying to get rid of a particularly unpleasant aftertaste.
“Blair.” The black haired girl nodded her head in acknowledgement.
There was an uncomfortable silence while Blair stared down at Vanessa icily, Vanessa raised her eyebrows defensively, and Dan looked from one girl to the other uneasily.
“Uh, I guess we better go get settled into our rooms,” Dan finally stuttered and grabbed Vanessa by the arm, leading her away in the same direction Blair had walked out from earlier. “See you around.”
“I hope not,” Blair muttered under her breath. Just then her phone rang.
Chuck Bass.
“Finally,” she huffed into the phone. “I was beginning to think that Chuck Bass didn’t know how to treat his girlfriend properly, not even calling to see how I’m settling in.”
“I think all those nights we spent together at the Hamptons where I had you screaming my name over and over again would prove you a liar Blair. I know exactly how to treat my girlfriend properly.” Chuck’s seductive voice oozed into her ears, and against her will Blair found herself blushing and smiling again.
“Shut up Bass,” she mumbled, drawing heart shapes with her fingers onto the nearby tree trunk. She sighed. “I’ve had the worst morning Chuck. You won’t believe who I have for a roommate.”
“I know. Georgina.” She heard Chuck say wearily into the phone.
Blair gasped. “How did - ”
“She called. Using your phone.”
“What?” Blair pulled her phone away from her ear and stared at it disgustingly. “Ugh, I’ll probably have to wash this with antiseptics or get Daddy to buy me another phone.”
Chuck chuckled. Then his voice sobered a little and he said, “Listen Blair, I have my PI working overtime to find the dirt on Georgina so we can have her expelled from NYU. You don’t have anything to worry about. I’m not going to let that bitch hurt you.”
“Aw, you’re sweet Bass.” Blair smiled into the phone.
“I can be, in more ways than one - if you want to give that thing another try,” Chuck murmured into the phone.
“Ew, enough dirty talk for one day Bass. I’ve got to go. I have a lot of things to do for my first day of Uni tomorrow,” Blair explained.
“Dinner tonight?” She could hear the hopefulness in Chuck’s voice.
Blair’s heart broke a little when she had to say, “I can’t Chuck. Tomorrow is a big day for me and I don’t want to stay up late.” She felt awful at turning him down, but they were both going to be busy for the next few months and they would have to get used to this. “I’m sorry Chuck.”
“That’s alright.” There was a pause, and then Chuck said suggestively, “You can make it up to me some other time.”
Blair laughed. Chuck always did know how to put her in a good mood. “Bye Chuck. I love you.”
“I love you too Blair”
Blair shut the phone and felt a surge of energy run through her. With or without Georgina Sparks around, Blair was going to make sure that her life at NYU started off in the right direction. And the first step in that would be to do her research on which NYU sororities she would want to get accepted into. It was important to establish her image from the start. She wasn’t known as the Queen B for nothing.
She set off towards her room with determined steps.
A/N: I know, I know, this chapter was rather slow and I won't be surprised if you're asleep already, but I had to use these first few chapters to set the background. I still have some pot holes left in the plot line and need to figure them out, but I promise to try and update this story sooner than later.
Also, to burstoflight, if you're still reading this, I do have plans to have Jenny make an appearance but it won't be till the later Chapters. I hope you're not too disappointed :)
