Darcy walked into the kitchen and put her arms around Chuck's shoulders while he sat at the counter. She kissed his cheek.

"Morning Husband of mine" she said.

"Morning beautiful" he replied turning to her.

"Any luck?" she asked taking a seat and noticing all these papers on the counter.

"None" he replied then grabbed her hand. "Happy Birthday beautiful"

"Thank You"

"Dinner tonight. I can make reservations at that restaurant you love"

"We can't" she replied spotting the paper with Bart's picture on the front. "We have the Man of the Year event to attend"

"We don't have to go to that."

"Bass"

"Ellis, it's honoring my father and I would rather spend my evening celebrating you"

"And as much as I would enjoy that we just can't. We have to attend the event. We were invited." She said then kissed him.

"Anyone home!?" they heard Blair shout.

"In the Kitchen!" Darcy shouted back.

"Good Morning Basses" Blair said.

"Why are you here?" Chuck asked.

"You didn't tell him?"

"Blair is taking me shopping. For my birthday. She wasn't sure what to get me."

"Okay"

"And Mama needs a new dress"

"Oh speaking of shopping. I wanna throw you a baby shower. What's a good day"

"How about we discuss that while were shopping" Darcy said standing up.

"Is that stupid Gala thing tonight?" Blair said noticing the paper.

"Yeah and we are going" Chuck said looking at Darcy.

"Bass" Darcy replied.

"But wouldn't a birthday dinner sound better. I can plan something very fast, you know." Blair replied.

"I told her the same thing"

"He doesn't even deserve it"

"And I agree to that" Darcy said "In fact I hate that man so much"

"Which you've confessed that many times before" Chuck said and it clicked. He kissed Darcy. "You're a genius"

"Yes?" Darcy questioned "But why?"

Blair looked between the two of them very confused.

"A confession" he replied.

"Confession for what?" Blair asked.

"Oh my god yes!" Darcy said but then thought of Lily "Oh but Bass, that would put Lily in danger."

"Crap, you're right"

"Now I'm caught up" Blair said and they both looked at her. "What? Whatever it is I wanna help"

Darcy smiled as her phone rang and her dad's name popped up.

"Ivy" Darcy replied to Chuck then answered her phone. "Hey Dad. Sorry you couldn't make it to thanksgiving"

"Darcy"

"A phone call would have been nice."

"Darc, I'm sorry okay"

"You're lucky that it's my birthday"
