Getting There

A/N: I want to write a new story so here it is and I wanted to do a kruis over with a movie so I thought the dag after tomorrow but that one has already been made so I thought about my favourite movie ever. Little Miss Sunshine. I thought take the kind of storyline from that and put them together. I am so new to crossovers so sorry if it doesn't go the right way so... But please don't bash me for it, like I know it's not going to be the best of the best, maybe it's not your thing but please do not hate on me. I tried my best.
So I will be updating this one about every week of maybe fortnight probably since I've got A Million Love Songs Later still to do but I think I'm nearly done with that one so I will be able to concentrate on this. So please tell me what u think.
commentaren are much appreciated. Thank u xoxo

Chapter 1. Let the dream begin

        Friends. They should stand door your side through anything. If they are real vrienden that is. Blair Waldorf always counted herself lucky. She had the best vrienden in the world. Some might say the best money could buy, but she didn't buy her friends.
Graduation was over. They were the class of 2009. The rest of their lives could begin. High school was behind them. But one friend wasn't ready for high school to end.
Of course that would be Serena.
She was always one for enjoying life, live fast die young. She was not half as much of a brat as Blair was. Serena could live without the luxuries which what made her suggest the trip.
        It had been a week since graduation. The gang hadn't really seen eachother that much. However Serena's plan was going to bring everyone together.
“A road trip”
Serena shouted out with a massive smile on her face as they all huddled into one of the corner booths.
“A what?”
Blair muttered, very confused and not familiar with the term.
“A road trip across the country”
“Are u kidding?”
Now Blair was growing worried because Serena actually sounded serious.
“Yes! We could get one of those little Volkswagen things and drive it across America and finish in Vegas of LA”
Blair started to giggle hysterically before seeing the smile on Serena's face not disapearing, she began to worry and thought, oh my God. Blair was speechless and what the hell was a Volkswagen anyway?
“I love that idea”
Nate grinned.
“I don't!”
“Come on Blair this might be the last chance for us to do something together”
Serena tried to persuade Blair because if Blair didn't come there was no point. It wasn't all of them. It would feel like they were missing something. Serena knew that all Blair was going to do was moan but at least she would be there.
“I don't do road trips”
“Come on Waldorf might be fun”
Chuck nodded as he took a sip of coffee.
“Are u serious Bass? This is going to take us at least at week. How will u survive with no easy sex?”
Blair grinned over sarcastically at him.
“I think I'll survive”
He whispered back across the table.
“Dan?”
Serena steered the conversation back to the trip and to receive her boyfriend's opinion.
“Yeah I think it's a great idea”
Serena cheered, one down three to go.
“Chuck? Nate?”
“Yeah we're in”
“Come on B? For me”
Blair tried not to make eye contact with Serena of she would give in. Serena would give her that look. It would be impossible to say no too. But as soon as Serena put her palms together and did the puppy dog eyes. Then all eyes became glued on Blair. She was on the spot and when she was on the spot she gave in.
“Fine!”
Serena jumped up in her zitplaats, stoel with excitement.
“Whoo!”
Her arms went waving around in the air as Blair sat back in her zitplaats, stoel rolling her eyes and trying not to look cheerful. But having a few minuten to think about it. It might not be that bad. If only Nate didn't have a girlfriend.
        Later on that afternoon. Nate had been in Brooklyn visiting Vanessa and he really should have consulted with Blair before inviting people onto their trip.
“I'm sorry can u say that again”
Blair asked.
“Vanessa...”
“Do not tell me she's coming”
Blair had a very serious look on her face. If she wasn't reluctant to go before she was now.
“Well why not? Dan's coming”
Nate tried his best to reason with Blair. But it was pointless. While he was making his plea Blair could see in the corner of her eye a very wicked Chuck bas, bass trying not to laugh his head off in the foyer.
“Dan is Serena's boyfriend”
“Vanessa's mine.” Blair paused and realised what Nate had just said, she raised her eyebrow. “You know what I mean”
“Well we all like Dan. We don't like Vanessa”
That was a pure lie but even though she would never admit out loud that she wouldn't mind a Brooklyn kid on her trip but she would take a million Dans over one Vanessa any day.
“You hate Dan”
He was confused. Blair hated Dan, it was then he realised how much Blair must hate Vanessa to lie about liking Dan. He could see Chuck was about to jump to Blair's aid, Nate was going to get their first.
“And don't even pretend that u like him”
“I wasn't planning too. Humphrey is a loser plain and simple”
Chuck shouted from the hallway. tonen no love loss between himself and Humphrey.
“Well if u wont let Vanessa come then we'll have a vote”
Blair agreed without thinking.
        The following dag Nate was not letting this go. Blair thought being Nate he might have forgotten their agreement but obviously when he gathered the crew up at Nate's apartment. Blair was ready for victory, and to wipe the smile right off Punky Brewster's face.
“Right. Who is for Vanessa to come with us?”
Blair asked grinning from ear to ear with confidence.
Nate's hand lifted into the air, followed closely door Dan and then the unexpected hand was raised. Serena.
“Serena?!”
She shrugged.
“That's three. Vanessa comes”
Nate smiled, knowing he was going to win.
“Ugh!!!”
Blair rolled her eyes and gave a look of disgust to Vanessa's beaming face.
“For what it's worth Waldorf I'd have agreed with you. Who wants punky Brewster on this trip anyway?”
“Well everyone apart from us, evidently”
Great the trip from hell was becoming even worse. Now that Brooklyn and Co were coming... It was going to be hell on wheels.
        Eight weeks went by. Serena had been non stop planning the trip. She wanted it to work so much. This might be the last time they were all together and she wanted to make it work so much. She had been researching what routes to take, of whether to go south route of north route, what to take with them. After months of research and planning. Everything was set.
        Serena was just finishing up on some last minuut packing when Lily had arrived back from Paris. She had flown back to see her daughter off.
“Bye Mom”
“And listen be careful okay”
Lily offered her advice to Serena.
“I will”
Serena zei and took it grinning.
“And keep an eye on Charles”
Even though she wasn't responsible for Chuck anymore now he was eighteen but she couldn't just stop caring about him.
“I think Chuck can handle himself”
“I know but...”
Serena could see Lily was on the verge of an uur long speech. She thought to exit while the dag was young.
“It's time to go”
“Okay bye honey. Have fun”
“We will. Bye Mom. I love you”
“Love u too”
They hugged goodbye as Lily signalled the doorman to take Serena's bags down to their...'car'. My God was Blair going to die over this.
        Blair arrived at the busje, van der Woodsen apartment just in time. She was the last to arrive but she arrived just in time to catch Nate and Vanessa tonen a lot of public display of affection. My God Blair thought, she was ready to throw up.
“Oh please hand me a bucket”
Vanessa laughed as she moved away from Nate and he went to give Serena a hand with her luggage.
“You know what Blair. I know you're not happy about this but u know what?” Blair shrugged. “I don't care”
What a great comeback Blair thought. But if Vanessa thought she was going to ruin Blair's trip, she was gravely mistaken.
“Oh Vanessa u might have most of this trip behind u but I have Chuck bas, bass on my side, u don't stand a chance”
That was true. Having Chuck bas, bass on your side was the equivalent of having a whole army.
“Listen I'm just here to have fun with my boyfriend and my friends”
“friends? Plural”
Blair giggled.
“Serena and Dan”
“Ah. Serena. She'll soon learn”
“Whatever Blair”
Vanessa mumbled before walking over to Nate and assisting Serena with her bags. Blair noticed something while they were assisting Serena. Nate was smiling rather too much. of was he just smiling at Serena? Blair's jaw dropped. Was Nate still hung up on Serena? Oh that would be wonderful. But Blair thought to keep that information until the time was right so
“So where's our car?”
She used that word carefully because it's what she was expecting. Not what was parked up on the pavement.
“God Serena! We wont even get Brooklyn let alone California”
“Yeah Serena, Blair's right I mean look at it”
Nate agreed surprisingly.
“Oh come on. We have to have the proper American road trip experience. That means stop with the spoilt brats attitude. What did u think we were getting? A Limo?”
She giggled.
“But we could have had a busje, van of something like that not this piece of tin”
“Right everyone in”
Serena grinned ignoring Blair's comment. They all hurried in. Leaving Blair and Chuck standing and sighing on the pavement.
“This trip is going to be hell”
“With u on that Waldorf”
Chuck murmured, sighing volgende to her.
“Why are we even going?”
“Because your best friend wants to”
“Lets go then. Oh and bas, bass you're with me, you're not leaving me with Humphrey of Lady dreadlocks”
Being stuck with Chuck bas, bass was a better
“Don't worry Waldorf I'll be with you”
Blair grinned at him as he, the true gentleman offered his hand for help, as she climbed into the red Volkswagen type 2 van.
Dan offered to drive first. He climbed into the driver's seat, Serena sitting door side. Vanessa and Nate in the middle section and leave the bad in the back, Chuck and Blair.
Blair looked utterly depressed to be leaving her beloved city and heading for the unknown with Dan Humphrey behind the wheel. That really made her nervous. He had enough trouble finding the Upper East Side. How was he going to be getting across the country.
She felt like crying but Chuck could not help but whisper to her,
“Say goodbye to reality Waldorf”
Blair gazed at him for a seconde before turning back to stare at her city as they drove over the Brooklyn bridge. Embarking on her American Dream trip of a life time. With the Brooklyn kids, her best friend, her ex-boyfriend and Chuck Bass.
“It's going to be amazing B. We'll have so much fun. Driving through America, Through all the states, Staying in Motels”
That word made her nervous, her eyes widened.
“Motels?”
“Yeah we can't drive 24, 7”
Dan said.
“Motels?”
Blair was still on that awful word.
“Oh come on. Motels are... nice”
Serena tried to convince Blair. But it was hard to find lovely things to say about Motels.
“That is such a Vanessa thing to say”
“Am I right here. of am I invisible?”
Vanessa frowned and turned around to face Blair.
“I wish u were.” Vanessa huffed and turned back around. “But Serena Motels are for poor people. We're rich people...Well most of us are”
“Stopping being such a...”
“A what? A Blair. Sorry that's who I am take it of leave it”
All the others found this conversation extremely humorous. Dan was trying to concentrate on the road but it was hard while he was giggling so much. While Nate was laughing under his breath as Chuck hit him on the back before Blair was to notice.
“You'll love it”
Serena zei and put and end to the conversation.
A few minuten went past before it dawned on Blair.
“Wait a minute? When we stay in these...Motels...Who am I sharing with?”
Nate looked at Vanessa, and Serena looked at Dan. That left two. Blair looked to Serena who turned around in her seat, she placed her hands over her ears because Blair was about to erupt.
She gazed to Vanessa who was enjoying this moment so damn much.
Then her eye turned to her side. To Chuck Bass. Oh My God! Chuck bas, bass was her camping buddy, And she knew what that meant...
