The Devil Wears Armani (ON HOLD)

Blair's P.O.V

Soon after the auction ended the guests began to leave. I got off the stage and Sean was to the first to come to me.

"How mad are you?"

"On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd say 100." I state calmly, not letting the anger get the best of me.

"I'm sorry Blair. I really couldn't do anything to prevent it. But on the bright side, it's just a date. It won't be that bad."

Ha! I wish...

"It's okay. And you don't need to apologize. Besides, it's for a good cause." I say, mustering up a smile. I mean Sean was right. This wouldn't be so bad.

Even I didn't believe myself.

________________________________

When we reached my apartment, I was too tired to even move a bone. Sean came to drop me till my door.

"I'm sorry again for tonight." He said guiltily.

"Sean, I've told you already. This isn't your fault. Besides, it's just a date." I say encouragingly. Sean is a really nice guy, so why can't I get myself to like him?

He leans in to kiss me and I kiss him back waiting for tingles of pleasures to erupt within me......................but I feel nothing.

Nada. Zilch.

This is just crazy!

We end the kiss and he looks back at me.

"How about, after your date, we go on a date of our own?" He asks

"Yes...that would be great." I reply half heartedly.

Wait....what am I doing? I'm playing around with Sean's feeling when I know we don't have a future! Since when did I become like this?

Sean's about to leave when I call him out.

"Sean....wait?"

"What's wrong Blair?" He looks back at me with a confused expression.

"Sean.....I can't do this to you. You're one of the nicest people I've met and you deserve better." I confess. I'm no longer being a selfish monster.

"Blair....what are you talking about?" Sean asks although I know he understands just as much.

"I think you know Sean.....you and me...we have no spark...no matter how much I want to, I just don't see a future for us." I reply sadly.

Sean has a knowing expression on his face but nevertheless he still looks sad.

"I get what you're saying Blair. I tried to. And I think I kind of love you....it's really hard not to." He says with a sad smile "But yes , there is no spark."

"I hope we'll still be friends after all this....?" I say it like a question.

"Of course! I don't think I'd be able to keep away from you even if I wanted to." He smirks.

"Ahhhh! I'm so glad this isn't a sad breakup." I say as I hug him.

"Me too, I have to get going now. I'll see you on Sunday? And make sure you bring the Parker's file with you." He says, all business-y again.

"Good night Sean." I nod and smile.

"Good night young Blair." He smiles back and just like that he leaves.

Well that went.......I think.

I just hope that tomorrow turns out to be better.....

Little do I know?!
