We've all been wondering for weeks now: what is the deal with the Chuck-Blair-Nate triangle? Will it be the real thing or just a blip in the total Gossip Girl time line?

The short answer is the latter.

Zap2it's Korbi Ghosh recently spoke with executive producer Stephanie Savage, and what she came away with was that Blair and Nate won't go away next week, and we will have to live with it for a time, but the two are not exchanging rings.

"We are definitely out there [online], kind of listening to what people are saying. We are very aware there is a lot of interest in having the Chuck and Blair story come to fruition... and that’s what we’re thinking about right now," Savage said.

And what exactly does "right now" mean?

Well, Gossip Girl season two has already wrapped, so where does that leave us. Stephanie said Chuck and Blair would be a top priority for Season Three.

But does that mean Blair and Nate will be a big part of Season Two's five remaining episodes? "They have a little run," Savage revealed.

"I don’t want people to not be invested in that story because I think that when the Nate and Blair story finally ends, people will understand that it was necessary growth for both of the characters. They come out in a different place."

Sounds like she's got a plan.

Stephanie Savage can even explain the reasoning - or at least try - behind this Nate and Blair reunion and why it makes sense right now:

"It felt like, given the history that they had - when we met Blair, her whole story for the first half of the first season was very much about them feeling like they were destined to be together - it is very realistic. Especially since Blair has been feeling insecure lately - she's found out that she’s not getting into Yale, her life isn’t going to end up like she thought it would and she’s kind of off the path she'd planned."

"Nate offers security, familiarity, and just kind of that nostalgia for that vision of herself that she had as a young girl, wanting to see that come to fruition as high school culminates. This is your high school boyfriend, this is who you always dreamed about finishing high school with. And when that dream presents itself, it’s going to be pretty appealing."

For those still worried the show is simply stalling on Chuck and Blair and that Gossip Girl is planning to forever avoid the relationship between the two until we hit the series finale, Savage offered more food for thought.

Asked if the Chuck-Blair pairing could work without tanking the drama, she said: "We think we had good success on [our first series] The O.C., for example, with Seth and Summer, where they were really together as a couple for the vast majority of the show."

"We told stories where they were having issues and were having obstacles, but in the context of them as a couple. So it’s not necessarily the case that once a couple comes together, they stop being interesting or able to generate story."

In the meantime, as Chuck Bass has to wait out the drama with his true love and his best friend together, the Vanessa thing will continue for a bit.

Stephanie explained that it certainly "won't have the same resonance" as the Blair-Nate situation. But that's in the eye of the beholder, certainly.

Lastly, Stephanie and her writing staff have not forgotten the fact that Nate and Chuck are supposed to be loyal to each other, given their friendship.

Apparently the two boys have "a very sweet story" which will play out at the end of the season as they "kind of figure out the Blair of it all."

As for the whole Uncle Jack Bass-Blair of it all - remember that forgotten detail? - the ball was not dropped after all and it will be revealed in the season finale.

What happened is the writers originally planned for the big "what went down with Jack and Blair on New Years" reveal to play out earlier this year.

The scene with Chuck finding out was even shot and partially shown in a preview. But when the producers watched the cut of it, they just felt like it wasn't dealt with properly. It seemed as though an important piece of drama was being rushed through, so they ultimately decided to hold that back and get a bigger story out of it at season's end.
