Chapter 2. Stuck with you


        They had been on the road for a few hours. New York City was a distant memory. Dan was behind the wheel. Serena and Chuck were asleep on the back 座位 and Nate and Vanessa were cuddled up on the middle 座位 fast asleep. Serena had swapped with Blair since she'd had enough of Chuck's constant annoying. But Dan Humphrey was just muttering on about some boring subject 或者 another so she just fell asleep on the front seat. However it didn't last long a bump in the road saw to that.
“Oh you're awake”
Dan said.
“Where are we?”
Blair answered yawning and rubbing her eyes before flipping out the mirror to sort out her perfect hair.
“We are half way through Delaware”
That was shocking to Blair.
“Delaware? Oh my God. I thought we'd be in Illinois 由 now”
“Illinois? This is a Volkswagen Blair not a jet car. Anyway keep your voice down the others are sleeping”
Blair turned around and looked at the dozy heads in the back. Vanessa was lying asleep against Nate's chest his arms wrapped around her. Then Serena and Chuck looked like they'd had a bust up, Serena was lying, head against the window her blond hair flowing down one side of her head. Then on the right side Chuck. He was actually very cute when he was asleep. Blair turned back to the front and yawned again.
“What time is it?”
Dan looked at his watch.
“It's ten. We'll be at the Motel in half an hour”
“Oh good”
It was silent for a while before Dan got a new topic of conversation started.
“So really Blair, is it going to kill 你 to be nice to Vanessa?”
“Oh come on Humphrey do 你 really expect me too?”
She laughed. Dan Humphrey really did not know her at all.
“You could try”
“You obviously don't know me as well as 你 think 你 do”
Dan gave up then. There was no point in continuing to fight a losing battle.
        It was another forty 分钟 before they finally arrived at their destination. Blair had remained awake but she and Dan did barely any talking but he finally found the Motel.
If the outside was anything to go by, Blair was in for a 鲸, 鲸鱼 of a time, 或者 a mental breakdown.
“We're here”
“I'll get these up...” Blair 说 while shoving at Nate. “Nate! Nate!! NATE!”
“Huhh?”
“We're here. Get the rest of them up”
“Vanessa? We're here”
“Hmm”
She yawned and stretched back in her seat.
“We're here”
Blair stepped out of the 面包车, 范 and walked around to the trunk. She grabbed her case from the back and saw that Chuck was still asleep.
“Chuck...”
She tapped on his shoulder. “Bass... Chuck...Wake up”
He finally woke and was dazed for a 秒 before he realized it was Blair who was waking him.
“Blair? Are we here already?”
“Yeah. Come on get up”
They all climbed out of the Volkswagen and walked into the lobby if that was the word for it. Serena began the conversation. She rang the bell.
“Hi”
The sleazy, dirty looking man opened his eyes and breathed a puff of smoke into Serena's beautifully polished face. They could see he was no American. “We would like three rooms please”
Serena gracefully asked pushing the smoke away from her face.
“One..Two...Three...Four...Five...Six... No”
They all looked at eachother confused.
“No?”
Blair asked.
“One room free”
He 说 in his Mexican accent.
“One room? What?”
“Three per room”
He continued to press the issue.
“How is this dump full?”
Blair mumbled to Serena before receiving an elbow in the stomach.
“There are six of us”
Dan stepped in to try and explain.
“No! Maximum of three per room”
“Why?”
Blair asked.
“Because...” He took another drag of him cigarette and blew it into their faces again. “Health regulations”
“What did he say?”
Blair asked while she frowned.
“Health regulations”
Dan responded.
“Thought so...”
“Well that means three people are going to have to sleep in the Volkswagen?”
Blair grinned as Nate turned to Dan with a confused look on his face.
“Why are they looking at us?”
The manager slipped the key across to Serena. She picked it up as the three girls just stood and smiled at the boys.
“We'll be upstairs”
Serena 说 smugly, she was actually relishing in the fact that Dan was going to be stuck outside with Nate and Chuck all night.
Dan wandered back into the cold. Even though it was the summer months it was extremely cold. No one would envy the boys.
Chuck 冶炼, 闻到 what the manager was smoking and thought he recognized it. The night he was in for, he could do with some of that.
“You haven't got anymore of that have you?”
The manager gave him a silent look and pointed to the door while grinning smugly.
“Come on”
Nate 说 pushing Chuck out the door and back towards the Volkswagen.        
        As soon as the three girls stepped into the one free room, one of them felt like she was about to die.
“Serena...”
“It's not that bad”
“Serena!”
“Blair you're panicking”
“I'm not panicking I'm having a nervous breakdown”
“Vanessa?”
“I've seen worse”
“Of course 你 have 你 live in Brooklyn. 你 know what Serena if I wasn't so tired I would strangle 你 myself”
Vanessa giggled at Blair's obvious breakdown. She had never seen anyone so distraught over the sight of a Motel room. Blair could be an actress with those talents. Serena thought she better 移动 well away from Blair 或者 there would be murder and they hadn't been on the road a 日 yet.
        A few hours after eventually falling asleep there was a knock at the window.
“What's that?”
Vanessa rubbed her eyes and checked the clock, it was one am. She must have been the only one to hear it since Blair and Serena were still dead to the world. She walked over to the window and rubbed away the grease and dirt before seeing three familiar figures standing at the bottom of the 火, 消防 escape.
“What are 你 doing?”
She lifted the window and shouted while trying to be as quiet as possible.
“Vanessa we can't stay out here. We'll freeze to death”
Nate shivered wrapped in his fleas, blue blanket.
“Well 你 can't come in here. We'll get thrown out”
“We're only here one night. We're leaving first thing. Who'll know?”
Dan pleaded with her to let them in.
She sighed and finally gave in.
“Get on with it then”
As soon as the go was 给 由 Vanessa they half killed eachother to get up the 火, 消防 escape and into the room.
To bad they couldn't have been quieter, because the sleeping beauties where about to be awakened.
Blair turned to see Manbangs, Humphrey and the motherchucker climbing in through the window.
“What are they doing here?”
Blair frowned while still lying in bed.
“It's too cold out there Blair”
Nate answered with a moan tone.
“Look there is no room in here”
She finally sat up realizing they were not going back outside.
“Well 你 better make room. Because we're not going back outside”
Dan grabbed all the blankets he could find and boldly answered Blair back.
“Shut up the manager will throw us out”
Vanessa shouted trying to keep control of the situation.
“Ugh...Aww. Who's that on my foot? Get off me. Dan is that you?”
Blair asked while trying to get back to sleep.
“I'm over here”
He protested while being over on the opposite side of the room huddled up on the arm chair with Serena.
“Serena get your boyfriend off my foot”
“It's not me Blair. It's Chuck”
Blair pulled away knowing obviously who else could it be.
“Bass!!”
“Sorry”
“Right...” Serena finally saw sense and got up to turn on the lights, not before taking a stumble. “...Arghhh”
“Who was that?”
Chuck asked.
“Serena”
Nate answered, knowing because it as he she had landed on.
“S are 你 okay?”
Blair asked not knowing where to look where Serena had fallen over.
“Aww I think I broke my arm”
Role reversals, Serena was being 更多 of a drama queen.
“Serena get off me”
Nate stood up trying to get Serena off of him.
“I'm sorry Nate. I can't see a thing”
“Vanessa can 你 put the lights on please”
Nate asked.
“Sure...Right no one trip me up”
“Oh tempting”
Blair giggled.
“Shut up Blair”
Vanessa hit the lights to see a room full of chaos. Everyone was scattered everywhere.
“Ah now we can see”
“Serena what are 你 doing down there?”
“I fell over”
Blair looked around the room and Chuck was no where in sight, that was because he was already camped on her bed.
“Bass get off my bed”
Blair yelled.
“Hey we all have to learn to share”
“You're lucky you're even in here. Do 你 want to go back outside because trust me I have no issues with that. I'll throw 你 out the window myself”
Blair wasn't kidding either, it was pleasure her to kick Chuck 低音 out of a window.
“Don't kid yourself Waldorf, 你 爱情 having me here”
He winked and grinned that famous Chuck 低音 smile at her.
“Yeah I just adore having 你 on my bed!”
Blair answered with a sarcastic 评论 awaiting Chuck's response.
“Like I haven't heard that before”
Chuck grinned as Dan and Serena were giggling to death on the opposite side of the room when Blair noticed them she threw dagger eyes in their direction. As soon as she did, they stopped immediately.
“Are 你 two going to argue all night?”
Nate yelled.
“We're not arguing”
“Yes”
They both answered across eachother.
“Oh Shut up!”
A very annoyed Vanessa yelled, she had no idea how Serena and Nate could deal with Chuck and Blair for so long.
But before falling asleep Chuck could not resist another 评论 to rattle Blair.
“Don't try anything Waldorf”
Blair just gritted her teeth and took it, not before throwing back her own comment.
“Anyone, feel free to smother Chuck tonight”
“Go to sleep”
Serena laughed
“Goodnight”
They all wished eachother before drifting off.

        The 下一个 morning they were up and ready to go before eight am. They had to make a quick and quiet getaway before the manager was to catch them.
“Are we ready to go?”
Serena asked, just popping her head out the door before making a run for it.
“Yeah quick before the manager sees us”
“Go!!”
Vanessa shouted before spotting that the manager was there and waiting for them. He wasn't as stupid as he looked. He was standing there with the cigarette sticking out of his mouth and puffing away. “Oh God!”
“Huston we have a problem”
Dan added before pushing past everyone to get the Volkswagen first.
“GET OUT! GET OUT!!!”
He shouted, they ran as fast as their legs could carry them.
“Crap!”
“Go! Go!”
Serena jumped into the driver's seat, realizing she was missing the keys.
“Keys!?”
Dan threw them from the back of the Volkswagen passed Chuck and Vanessa to Blair who was sitting 下一个 to Serena, she threw them to Serena who got the 面包车, 范 started and got them on their way.
Just as everyone sighed a sign of relief. Vanessa sat back and smiled as they had made a quick getaway but as she did she noticed, she was missing something.
Her Boyfriend.
“Where's Nate?”
They all turned around and saw that they were missing a Nate.
“Oh Crap!”
Serena sighed putting the Volkswagen into reverse.
Back it up.
There he was standing on the edge of the pavement. Like a 迷失 puppy. His eyes where wondering around and so confused 由 the sight of the 面包车, 范 being moved. When he had only been in the bathroom.
“Where the hell is everybody?”
Suddenly a red flash came hurtling around the left corner. As soon as the manager saw the Volkswagen return he rushed from his office in pursuit of them. There wasn't even time to stop. Nate made use of his sportsman's physique and grabbed onto Vanessa left arm and Chuck's right.
He was in. “You forgot me?”
No one 说 a word. Vanessa pushed her palm onto Nate's face while the rest of them just bawled out laughing. This is what a great American road trip was all about. Fun.
And that certainly made everyone laugh, everyone apart from Nate.
