Vanessa is a budding filmmaker. She is the polar opposite
of her 1. Constance Billard classmates. Her parents are hippie artists
who live in Vermont, while her sister Ruby is bassist for the band
SugarDaddy. She has a shaky relationship with Dan Humphrey.
After Ruby comes back from a world tour with her new fiance, Piotr,
Vanessa moves in with the Humphreys, further complicating her
relationship with Dan. Her life's ambition is to be a filmmaker.
She is attending NYU at the end of the book series. She is portrayed
by Jessica Szohr as a secondary character in the TV series.

Chuck is a rich, handsome, lust-driven, perverted antagonist
whose list of the finer things in life is short: sex, alcohol, and rock
and roll. He almost took advantage of a vulnerable Jenny Humphrey
in a bathroom and on roof top and tried to sleep with an inebriated
Serena van der Woodsen. Nobody is certain about his sexual
orientation. Chuck has an obnoxious pet monkey named Sweetie,
who can often be found perching on his shoulder and wearing coordinated
outfits. He is largely despised by other characters, but because their
families have been friends for generations and because of his wealth
and good looks, they tolerate his egotistical antics and accept him
for what he is: a rich party animal. After he was not accepted to
any of the colleges he applied to, he ends up going to military
college. He is portrayed by Ed Westwick as a primary character in
the TV series.

quotes on Chuck&Vanessa

"Back at the party, Blair, looking pretty in a dress Chuck
bought for her (pictured), is furious when she sees Vanessa
at the party. So she tells Chuck the bet is off. But Chuck's
not really ready to call it off. See, he genuinely wants to
buy the bar and he seems to actually like Vanessa."
- San Diego Union Tribune

Things start to get a little hairy when Chuck falls in love
with the bar and its fabled roster of mad, bad and dangerous
to know patrons and starts eying Vanessa with more affection
than his usual callous disdain. We know Chuck desires
deep down to shed his cad exterior, but it's difficult to break out
of the box others put you in, especially when contending with a
daddy complex. And Vanessa's newfound appreciation of
his oft unseen humanity might just be a little too alluring
for Chuck to resist.
- The CW SOURCE

" [... ] But the main event is Chuck and Vanessa. Chuck
seems genuinely excited about refurbishing the Brooklyn bar,
but Bart quashes the idea. Vanessa overhears and consoles
Chuck. She tells him he deserves better.

When V goes to leave the room, Chuck grabs her hand
and asks her to stay. B sees this and is scared that her plan has backfired.

Blair yoinks Vanessa’s purse and deletes the incriminating picture of
her former lover (one would think this would be a simpler solution
from the beginning). Blair then explains to Vanessa that it was all
a bet.

Chuck walks in and doesn’t deny the story, even though he looks
rather unhappy that B revealed it."
- Gossip Girl Insider

"I thought we'd seen him as real as he was going to get when
he was falling for Blair then fighting to get her back, but this week,
Vanessa's Brooklyn project actually got to Chuck's heart as he
saw more to himself than the rich jerk, and more to Vanessa
than a bet with Blair that would get him well, Blair."
