Darcy sat at the breakfast table with Nate and Chuck. Nate on the phone with his work.

"Yeah I'm coming into the office now but you have to cancel the meeting with Bloomberg there is just too much going on today...yeah sounds good." Nate said into the phone walking around the kitchen. "Thank you"

Nate hung up and turned to them.

"A week ago you couldn't get Bloomberg to give you a quote to the Spectator. Now you're canceling on him." Chuck said "That's a bold move Nathaniel. I'm almost aroused"

"Well ever since I published that article about staying independent from my family. People are paying attention."

"You're learning there are upsides to pissing off your family" Darcy replied.

"Grandfather actually loved the editorial so much that he invited me to be his guest at Camp Allen this weekend." Nate replied and Chuck's eyes got big "Yeah I leave for Vermont after work."
"You, Warren Buffet and every other finance and media titan. World domination by day. Debauchery by night. The Allen retreat is legendary. I pity the fool who tries to hire a call girl in Manhattan this weekend."

"I feel like I just lost you two to whatever far off land you just went" Darcy said.

"Why are you reading a rival paper?" Nate asked spotting the paper Darcy was reading and walked over "Oh wow"

"They might call off the wedding" Darcy said. To be honest she felt a little bad for Blair.

"I'm sure it's not even true" Chuck said.

"They haven't been spotted together in weeks. Not to mention he hasn't even been at Blair's. Serena told me"

"You Van der Woodsen girls gossiping?"

"We keep each other posted" Darcy replied "Now if you'll excuse me I am meeting Dan about Brooke's book"

She kissed Chuck and headed out. She got to Brooklyn and knocked on the loft door and Dan answered.

"Darcy. Hey?" he said.

"You seem surprised?" she said.

"Right now really isn't the best time."

"Why not?"

"I um...I have...company."

"Oh, okay. Well then we'll reschedule" she said and went to walk away when she heard a voice "Is that Blair?"

She looked behind him and saw her.

"Why is she here?"

"I'm helping her figure some stuff out"
"Louis?"

"Yeah"

"Well good luck with that Dan" she said and he shut the door and they headed outside. "Why exactly did you follow me down stairs?"

"I wanted to give you a heads up."
"About?"

"Blair still loves him."

"You didn't think I knew that. Dan I know how she feels but he sees her as a friend."

"She's dead set on them being meant to be."
"But they're not" She replied "And you need to convince her of that."

She walked away and grabbed a car and headed back to the Empire to see Lily and Chuck talking. Lily was walking out as she was coming in.

"Darling" Lily said.

"You and Bass have a nice chat?"

"I was just telling him how much I love you both."
