in which Dan waits (im)patiently for Blair to get ready for their date.
#he loves to watch her get dressed in the morning #she wakes up at least two hours earlier so that she can prepare herself for the day #and when he hears her get out of the shower he drags his groggy ass out of bed and slumps on the floor of her closet#she hands him a cup of coffee as she always does and he watches through sleepy eyes as she picks out her outfit for the day #this is one of the ways he loves her: meticulous and creative and focused #and she kicks him around because ‘humphrey you’re sitting in front of my louboutins!’ #sometimes she lets him pick out her lingerie #sometimes he lets her force him to wear cashmere socks #and then they go about the day’s business with a short peck that usually becomes a makeout until blair hits him for wrecking her lipstick
