A/N: This is a rewrite of my fanfiction Secret Keeper from FanFiction.net
Have you heard Upper Eastsiders Burlesque is all the rage again and sometimes a little raging is exactly what you need and as always Chuck's aiming to be ahead of the curves.
Layla, Blair and Chuck stood in a lobby of what appears to be a strip club
"You want your dad to invest in a strip joint?" Blair asked
"How midtown, a Burlesque club. A respectable place where people can be transported to another time, where they can feel free to let loose no judgement pure escape. What happened at Victrola stays at Victrola.
"Well it does have franchise potential" Layla commented looking around.
"Chuck Bass, I do believe all your years of underage boozing truly. I am proud" Blair said
"As am I"
"You two are my toughest Critic, well Second" Chuck commented
"So, do you think your father will go for it?" Layla asked.
"It is exactly the kind of innovative thing upon which the Bass empire was built. It's the perfect thing. I have been waiting for this".
"We are so late, you coming" Blair said looking at her phone
"Gotta pitch it to Bart".
Chuck kissed Layla's cheek and hugged Blair
"Victory Party here tomorrow" he said.
"Wouldn't miss it" Blair said
"I'll send a car" Chuck shouted as Blair walked out. Layla stayed behind.
"He'll love it. Good Luck" Layla said planting a kiss on his cheek
"You are my good luck charm"
Layla's phone buzzed. She pulled it out, it was a text from her brother
NATE: WHERE ARE YOU? PARENTS CORNERED ME. NEED TWIN
"I better go, good luck" Layla said and ran out the building noticing Blair took off without her. She hailed the next cab and headed to the school.
She went the whole day not really seeing her brother. I mean she saw him talking to Jenny and then later Blair, so it was best not to bother him. After school she headed to a nearby café and ordered a latte. She span to fast and spilt her drink down the front of some guys shirt
"Oh my god, I apologize." She said grabbing some napkins. The guy looked up at her and facing her were those blue eyes she saw behind the mask the other night
"Layla right?" He said.
"Yeah, you're...Ja?"
"Jason yes. So we meet again."
"That we do."
"So your school's nearby?" he asked her.
"Constance yes"
"Constance, I've heard of it"
"Dalton?" she asked
"I graduated last year."
"Ivy league school then?"
"Columbia."
"Interesting choice."
"Maybe we can talk more about it over dinner say tomorrow night. I'll pick you up at 7."
"I'll have to ask, my parents have something going on but I'll let you know."
