The Suppose Bride

It's been two years since Blair and Nate have been together and half of that year Blair and Nate have not been happy, but Blair only sees him happy when he is around Serena and she observed that she is only happy when she is working in her mother's company which is now hers or when she is working in her own private owned company "the Blair's project" which is an interior designing company. Whenever she is working she finds out that she is obtaining her goals in becoming the powerful woman she has always wanted to be. But a powerful woman who is with a man who doesn't love her no matter what she does. Her last straw was at the hospital yesterday when they found out that it was an accidental alarm, they thought she was pregnant and when they doctor confirmed that she wasn't. Nate breathed out like he was happy she wasn't, but what he didn't know was that she indeed was pregnant but lost it, so she had to beg and cry to the doctor to lie just to see his reaction and she could see the relieve and happiness in his eyes. Deep inside she broke to pieces and was almost glad she lost it because she would rather die than tie Nate to her because she was pregnant that is why she is doing this tonight because she would rather stop this lie before they go to the alter tomorrow. Yeah you heard me their wedding is tomorrow. Blair snaps out of her world when she hears the elevator signal someone coming in.

"Isn't it bad luck to see the bride before the wedding? What is it you sounded like it was a 911 call on the phone?

"Nate pls have dinner with me I actually cooked" that's when Nate saw it. The table was arranged impeccably and Blair was dressed in a red long dress with her hair in a neat and nice bun. Nate still shocked and not knowing what was going on sat down. Blair brings out the food and dishes it out for him and her while smiling. Nate wasn't sure what to say so he just sat still. So they ate quietly with the only noise heard were their cutleries. When they were done, Blair stands up again to clean up and Nate does the same

"Let me help pls" he looks at her in the eyes and she only nods, so when they were done they sit back at the table with him looking at Blair to find out what this was all about

"Umm Blair are you going to tell me what just happened because this feels so weird"

"I can't be your bride tomorrow" she looks at the shocked face he was placating for her, so she smiled and a tear slips through her eyes "I really want to be, but it wouldn't be fair to us. I am marrying a man who isn't in love with me but with my best friend".

"Blair I love you and I haven't cheated on you since that one time when Serena left"

"I know. You wouldn't cheat on me because no matter what you are that faithful Nate I know, but the very dumb one who would rather be trapped in a marriage with a person he loves as a friend because he doesn't want to break her heart and to that Nate... I love you and I can't be trapped in a marriage with someone who loves my best friend because can't let go of my first love and crush or because I hate change. We need to let go and find happiness elsewhere"

"But am happy with you Blair... I know I might not show it as often but I am"

"Yea you are but not as happy as you are when around Serena. I need to find my Serena you know... you know who you love and its not fair to me too. knowing I love someone who doesn't love me that much". Nate looks at her and is at loss of words because truly everything she says is the truth. He has stayed with her because he did love her but not enough for any sane person to commit to a person, but he also stayed with her because he didn't want to hurt her and she was also his best friend

"So what do we do now?" He looks at her and saw her give him a smile he had thought she had lost. Then she pulls out the Vanderbilt ring and placed it into his hand

"Go and propose to Serena"

"What? I mean don't get me wrong I would love to" and he bites his tongue and looks at her and she is still smiling genuinely so he continues "I would love to propose to her but we have to be in a relationship first"
