Chapter Forty Five - Game of Assassin




-Rose-

I enter the family apartment, Dan and Vanessa are already waiting. I smiled at both of them and drop my stuff.

"So I have my assassin  outfit, not that hard. Oh and this is for you, I managed to do it on the ride over." i hand him his script

"Oh wow. Very honest."

"Yeah, I don't know how to answer that." I breathe "Dan's got your V. And I'm going to get changed."

----------

We arrived at the Waldorf  apartment and I took my present and put it on the pile. Then went to get something to eat while we waited. We waited for like an hour and Nate hadn't shown up.

"Serena, is something wrong?" I wonder

"I hope not. I told him to be back by three, I get he's annoyed that he thought we were doing nothing for his birthday but this is insane. I put out a SOS to Gossip Girl so hopefully someone will capture his whereabouts." she told me "I've told Dan to start taking pictures."

"Okay, I'm sure he'll turn up soon." I went over to Dan.

"Hey photographer. I've come for you to take my picture."

"Of course my muse. step right here. I winked and held up a peace sign" Dan chuckled and put it on a necklace for me. We waited another half hour before Nate finally showed up surprised and happy.

"The game of assassin is simple kill or be killed. Your photo is your life, you wear it around your neck. If someone grabs your picture before you grab theirs. You dead and you have to give them all the pictures of everyone you've killed. Once your a ghost you come back here to the safe zone for the party. You can't go beyond this block, but restaurants, buildings, shops all fair game. The winner is the last Assassin on the street. And they have all the other photo's. So you have five safe minutes to leave the building, starting now." I grin at Dan and we leave

I ran out and across the street finding a good vantage point, I spotted one not far from me and I snuck up taking his picture. He groaned and I smirked running off. i noticed Dan and laughed as we continued. I grabbed five more photo's before go to try and get Dan. I found him coming out of hiding the same time of me.

"Might wanna call Rufus and say your goodbyes." I joke "Humm i'm kind of turned on by this killer side of you."

"Hate for you to die when you have something important to answer." I stopped

"And what might that be. he came back round I leaned out and snatched off him "Damn Humphrey, a girls your weakness." his and mine were taken off me

"At least you'll be together on the other side." Serena smirked

"Here." I handed her the rest of mine and she left

"So what did you wanna ask me? I wonder and he looked torn "Dan?"

"Nothing, it's nothing, come on let's go back to the party." He draped his arm around me and we headed back to the apartment. I saw my brother looking sullen.

"I'm gonna talk to Chuck." he nodded ad I sat next to my brother on the steps.

"So guess which sister is a total bitch for not supporting her brother? This gal." I pointed to myself. he didn't say anything.

"Chuck, what's the matter?" I ask him "Is it something to do with our unfortunate Uncle? Blair told me you were meeting with him today."

"I did, his price was high."

"But you're not gonna pay it right? I mean i know the Empire means everything to you, but it's not worth your soul which is what you'd be giving Jack."

"You don't understand, Rosie. Everything is easy for you." he sighs.

"Come with me." I pull him upstairs and into one of the spare rooms. "Chuck nothing that either of us go through is ever easy. Never. No money in the world could make it easy."

"This coming from Dad's favourite." I sigh

"The difference between us is no matter what happens I get back up again. I fight for everything no just because I'm a woman but because it would be so easy to just to take advantage of our last name and get anything and everything. Dad treated us differently because I never gave up, if I shouted it was loud. You've got to do the same too. Get up off your ass and fight don't concede especially not for Jack Bass." I kissed his cheek

"Get up and fight him. The best things are the one's you fight for. I love you Chuck." I left him to his thought and rejoined the party. I saw Dan talking to Vanya and Dorotea.

"Hey, so what's going on?"

"Vanya proposed to Dorotea." Dan told me

"Congratulations you too. I'm happy for you." I hugged both of them "Let's see the ring." she showed me it.

"Amazing taste, Vanya."

"Thank you Miss Rosalie."

"Maybe one day you too, be lucky as I. And have rock on your finger."

"Yeah, what are your thought's on marriage, Rosie?" Dan questioned me. I was confused on why he was asking but answered anyway.

"I would love to get married, why?"

"no reason, oh here's your drink." he handed me my glass and walked off, I swear he was acting more weirder than usual.

"Guys!" I heard Jenny and she held up a bunch of photo's "I won." we congratulated her

-------------------------------------

I was getting ready for bed. Dan was already conked out and I has stayed up writing an article when there was a knock. I went to answer it.

"Chuck?" he looked like he had lost everything. I pulled him inside and brought him into a hug. 

"Please don't hate me." he mumbled "Please don't hate me too." he hugged me tighter as I cradled his head in my shoulder.

"Come on, tell me what happened." I pulled him inside to talk.
