SIX

'What's the difference between gossip and a scandal? So glad you asked, UES forever. Anyone can commit a minor indiscretion and generate a days worth of buzz. But in order for gossip to birth a true scandal... it requires the right person, to be in the wrong place. Take one "it" girl on a pedestal, add a crowd eager to see her fall... and give them the means to knock her down."

"Is S really with child?"

"BLAIR Waldorf!" Rhea shouted running out her room, she had an amused smile on her face as she rushed to her younger sister who was ready to leave for school.

"What?" Rhea shoved her phone in Blair's hand, a smirk on her face. Serena had been spotted buying a pregnancy test. Blair widdened her eyes before covering it up and looking at Rhea.

"She's always been a slut, but I at least thought she used protection," Rhea explained. Blair scoffed at her sister giving her back the phone.

"I'm gonna be late," Blair spoke walking down the steps, Rhea smirked following her down. She wrapped her silk robe around her, tying it.

As Blair got in the elevator Rhea shouted, "Tell S, congratulations!" She heard a grunt from Blair and Rhea let a laugh escape her lips. Rhea and Lois went to a spa, nearly all day. However when Rhea returned home she heard something that she wished she didn't. She was going to tease Serena about the pregnancy but she heard that it wasn't her who was actually pregnant.

"Okay I am giving up, before you start planning your perfect night with Nate don't you think-"

"I'm not pregnant, Serena," Blair demanded. Rhea widened her eyes. Serena scoffed and walked out the room to meet a shocked Rhea.

Serena gulped, looking at Blair's sister who wasn't moving. "Talk to her?" Rhea nodded awkwardly and stood for a moment taking in the information.

After a few seconds she walked in her room, standing at the door. "Oh god, not you too." Blair groaned sitting up.

"Take the test," Rhea demanded crossing her arms over her chest. "What are you scared?"

"I am not pregnant."

"Who's the dad?" Rhea asked, narrowing her eyes. Blair threw something at the short girl. "See your hormonal."

"Maybe I'm just sick of you, your a bitch!" Blair called, angrily. Rhea scoffed.

"And your a slut," Rhea replied equally annoyed. Blair scoffed at that although her sisters words hurt her. "Don't take the test then." Rhea said knowing her words affected the taller girl. Rhea sighed leaving the room and shutting the door. She closed her eyes leaning on the door.

She walked down stairs to see her mum staring at her, "Why were you arguing?"

"Sisters argue," Rhea replied somewhat covering for Blair. She would take the test eventually.

"Maybe its to do with her, condition? We both heard the wa-"

"She wouldn't," Rhea declared. Staring angrily at her mom, "I'm going out." Rhea walked to the elevator leaving.

She got coffee and sat in a coffee shop, she just swirled it around with the spoon. "Rhee," the voice of Carter spoke she looked up to meet his ocean eyes. "You okay?" Rhea just nodded her head, Carter sat down in front of her.

"I'm fine Carter," She explained.

"You can't lie to me," Carter spoke honestly, she glared at him. She wasn't going to pour her heart out to him, she wasn't going to tell him what was wrong and Blair's deepest secret. She blamed herself in a way, Rhea couldn't even bring herself to call Blair out on it. "Did you have a fight with Blair?"

"It's really none of your business," Rhea said crossing her arms over her chest. Carter sighed knowing she wouldn't let anything slip. It was obviously something bad, something that had took a toll on her and it was Blair.

"Just tell her you love her and everything will sort itself out," Carter spoke. He then stood to get his coffee leaving Rhea pondering on his words. He was right.

Rhea drank her coffee shooting Carter a small smile leaving the shop, she went home straight to Blair's room. Blair lay on the bed and Rhea slid in next to her. "Go away."

"I thought pregnant people liked t-"

"I'm not pregnant, I took the test," Blair explained. Rhea grinned at her sister, and Blair smiled.

"Thank god, I want a few more years before I'm labelled auntie Rhea," The brunette explained and Blair rolled her eyes.

"So do i," Blair responded. "Don't get pregnant either." Rhea rolled her eyes, who would get her pregnant? She was single and hadn't slept with someone in a while, more than a month. She was slightly jealous that Blair slept with two people in the same week when she lost her virginity.

"You know I love you?" Rhea questioned. Blair furrowed her brows, where was this coming from. Rhea was always mean to Blair, but she still knew she loved her. They both knew they loved each other, they were the Waldorf sisters after all.

"Yeah, I mean obviously," Blair called, "Why are you telling me?" Rhea sighed, ready to bear all.

"And I'm sorry I left when- everything was going on with you, I went to do the Bass internship when I should have been here for you," Rhea explained.

Blair took a moment taking in her sisters words, she smiled at her. "I forgive you."

"Gilmore girls marathon?" Rhea asked a small smile tugging at her lips. This was the duos ritual, whenever they were upset or feeling down.

"Gilmore girls marathon." Blair confirmed. "Darota!" The maid was like a mother to Blair, more so than Eleanor. Although Rhea didn't share that same bond with her, they still made her join in on the marathons. Darota was part of the Waldorf family. She always would be.

"Yes Miss Blair? Miss Rhea?"

Note:

When I have complete this story should I write another Carter fic as we are seriously lacking. Or a Chuck one?
