Fandom High Welcome Picnic, Front Lawn of the School, All Day: Part III

And over here was another section of tables and chairs, still close to the food so no one accidentally starved while trying to avoid the masses.

"There was a polar bear guest," Blair said. "Chuck took pictures. Did you know he was here?"

Blair made a mental note to grab Chuck and make sure they were on the same page about taking the best care of poor little Eric.

"Chuck's here, too?"

Definitely not coming out of the closet. Not if he met the love of his life.

"No, I hadn't heard- Oh, wait," Eric said. "Is this where he got shipped off to?"

"Yes," Blair said, still far too amused at Chuck's stupidity. "He keeps talking about leaving but I think he's grown to like it here."

Eric nodded. "I... guess it's a good school, then." So he'd made a good choice to come here.

But he still wasn't coming out.

"The classes are different but the teachers make up for it," Blair said. At least the teachers she'd liked.

"Yeah -- there were two cooking classes on the syllabus? Well, a cooking class and a home ec class."

"I didn't notice," Blair said. Because cooking. Please.

Eric laughed, just a little. "Neither did I, really," he confided. "Mom pointed it out."

This would be Blair boggling again, though this time she didn't mind showing it. "Lily thinks she can cook now?"

"What? No!" That had Eric laughing rather more than a little. "I think she was trying to find problems with the school, so I'd go to St. Jude's at home, instead. She asked why any school would need two cooking classes."

"So you want to be here," Blair said, just to make sure she had that clear.

"I... wanted to be somewhere other than St. Jude's," Eric replied, a little carefully. He so didn't want to be going into his reasons. "So I figured I'd pull a Serena and go to boarding school. This one looked good, online." He looked around. "They left a lot out of the brochure."

Blair could work with that. "Tell Lily they have a prep program for professional chefs. She should calm down about that."
