The next day Danny was back with Celia, they all had a big hearty breakfast."What? No fucking way? Emilie is going to flip when she finds out!""I assure you that that woman has been a baby factory the minute that Russian mob doctor has his eyes on her. Yeah we know about his bad mob thing, just don't tell dad. I think he still wants Max to look innocent and just be a very successful surgeon who flies with his private jets."She drinks her coffee while continuing with her words babbling on about the mob boss."...God I can't believe that my obnoxious brother-in-law saves your ass. You know...gosh...I can't believe that I have to thank him. His head is going to swell like a giant balloon."Danny shook his head laughing while Celia pouted at her own words. Blair still couldn't believe that she didn't know about Emilie's wedding. They used to keep in touch but everything's changed when she marrie

Blair was sighing back to the couch. The room living room was dark and cold, as the curtain was still drawn. Celia had call minutes earlier inviting her for their dinner barbeque gathering. But Blair was not in the mood, she was still grieving for her mom. Their last trip to the city was her way of cementing back their friendship. But that day she needed to be alone, to mourn for the loss of her mother. That late afternoon she curled up in her mother's bed hugging her pillow and pulled up her mother's blanket and basked in her scent. But the nap didn't last very long. She was woken up by another dreadful dream. where she saw Gracia laughing and having a meal with a man. She couldn't see who it was because he was facing the other way. But her eyes were glued to his back knowing that she recognized the man. She woke up abruptly from her sleep seeing that it was Ian who was sitting with Garcia. She didn't fall back to sleep again. It has been like that for the past couple of days, a

"So, you're not going back to the city?"  "Not today, I still have my sick leave. Why? do you want to spend the day with your friend Danny?"  Ian looked annoyed that she questioned him about his plans as if she wanted him gone already.  "You're jealous? you're actually jealous of Danny? he's way less harmless than your ex casual sex partner Garcia." She retorted as she was already thinking ahead about his partner, how they would work side by side when he gets back to the city.  "Hey, I thought we have cleared that topic?"  "Yeah? put yourself in my shoes. You seriously think you'd be okay with me working late at night, side by side with my ex casual sex partner?" "Right, I'm sorry baby. I'll get her reinsta

"What do you mean you're staying here?"Ian asked when morning came and they were having coffee in bed. He had asked her to pack for the city. Blair was nervous that he would be upset with her, he looked and studied her and know her expression instantly."Hey baby, please...I'm not mad at you. I just need an explanation. I thought you agree to marry me?"He sighed and pulled her in for a hug, she relaxes in his arms in moments, wrapping her arms around his waist she turned to face him and lay her face on his chest."I want to stay here Ian, just for a couple of months. I want to find the real me, Benjamin had taken it all away from me. And now I'm marrying you and will live far from my friends again."He hugged her tightly knowing that he would be sleeping alone tonight. He wished it would be that easy, but being apart from her was hard."You will be living in this ho

She was at his place the next morning, he looked like he hadn't slept at all. "Ian, oh my..." she greeted him the moment he opened the door for her. She was driven to his house by Danny who was giving him the same worried look as Blair. "Dude are you okay? Blair, maybe I should stay around? he's not looking good at all." "Blair..." he hugged her as if his life depends on her."I got him, Danny. Thank you for the ride." "Are you sure?" her childhood best friend asked still concern looking at Ian. But Blair gave him another firm answer and Danny finally nodded and get back into his truck and leave her with Ian after he told her that he would call and check in on her in a couple of hours before he gets back to the suburbs.Blair guided Ian to the couch and told him that she was going to prepare breakfast for him, but he stopped and kissed her deeply."Now that you're here would you just lay with me? I'm not hungry. I'm just tired."Ian had been tossing and turning all night and he co
