Title: In Contention Chapter 1 Rating: PG-13 Pairing: Dan/Blair Summary: After the photo shoot, Dan decides to throw his proverbial hat in the ring. AU of the end of S4.
The subtle nuances reflected in the lines below makes me hold my breath (in a good way). I really like the synergy you created here.
Ten minutes later, she was halfway through her second glass. While she was nowhere near drunk, she felt much more relaxed. Tentatively, she inched slightly closer to him. She saw him smile out of the corner of her eye, and she feared that he was going to tease her about wanting to get close to him. Instead, he casually laid his arm across the back of the sofa, essentially inviting her into his space. After a moment's hesitation, she moved closer still, and he brought his arm down and around her shoulders.
The repartee below that came after the above lines was perfectly timed and had me smiling. Looking forward to the next chapter. “You know, that's pretty much the oldest move in the book,” she couldn't help but point out, smiling to take away any edge

And I was so happy to see the others updated (and completed!) too.
I am like the worst commenter in the word but I am reading and sitting here anxious for more.
This place where you ended the chapter... I'll definitely be stalking my f-list for updates.
