？Looking　good；　Natie；？　Serena　sighed　wistfully；　unable　to　keep　the　words　from　escaping　her　lips。　
She　pulled　gently　away　from　Blair；　tendrils　of　golden　hairs　escaping　her　ponytail。　Nate　dropped　
Blair？s　hand　abruptly　and　moved　toward　Serena；　opening　his　arms。　Serena　rushed　in　to　hug　him；　
wrapping　her　arms　around　his　taut　waist　and　holding　on　tight。　He　squeezed　her　back　with　a　
fierceness　that　Blair？s　hug　had　lacked。　Had　he　found　her　letter　after　all？　

？What　are　you　guys　doing　here？！？　Serena？s　voice　was　breathless　as　she　buried　her　face　in　Nate？s　
warm；　soft　neck。　Blair　stared　at　them；　her　blue　eyes　narrowing。　

Shouldn？t　they　be　askingher　that　question？　

the　more　things　change；　the　more　they　stay　the　same　

Serena　purred　happily；　snuggling　closer　to　Nate？s　warm；　naked　body。　Lying　in　his　arms　felt　so　
incredibly　right。　When　they？d　lost　their　virginity　to　each　other；　more　than　two　years　ago；　it　had　
been　amazing；　their　every　curve　a　perfect　fit。　This　time　was　no　different？they？d　sunk　into　the　soft　
sheets　and　each　other？s　bodies　like　they　had　been　made　for　one　another。　Serena　couldn？t　believe　
how　fortable　she　felt　with　Nate？how　fortable　she？d　always　been　with　him。　She　never；　
ever　wanted　to　get　out　of　bed。　Couldn？t　they　just　stay　wrapped　in　each　other？s　arms　forever；　
ordering　Chinese　takeout　every　few　hours　and　feeding　each　other　greasy　spareribs？　

Nothing　says　romance　like　pork…fried　rice！　

She　buried　her　nose　in　his　ear　and　he　pulled　her　close；　wrapping　the　sheet　around　their　naked；　
sweaty　bodies。　Serena　reached　up；　twining　her　arms　around　Nate？s　neck。　

The　minute　his　lips　had　touched　hers　and　their　clothes　had　fallen　away；　Serena　knew　she？d　been　
right　all　along？she　really　loved　him。　She　felt　like　she　was　going　to　burst　with　it；　and　had　been　


holding　the　words　in　for　so　long　that　all　she　wanted　to　do　now　was　repeat　them　over　and　over　
again。　

？Serena？？　Nate　asked；　rolling　on　his　side　and　propping　his　head　up　on　one　hand。　

？Yes；　Natie？？　She　rolled　him　back　over　and　placed　her　head　on　his　chest；　snuggling　under　his　
armpit。　She　loved　the　sound　of　her　name　when　he　said　it。　

？I　have　something　to　tell　you。？　He　traced　his　fingertips　along　her　bare　shoulders。　It　felt　electric。　

Serena　sat　up；　pulling　the　sheet　with　her　to　cover　her　smooth　skin；　her　blond　hair　falling　over　her　
bare　back。　？What？？　She　whispered；　trying　to　stay　calm。　

？I　didn？t　get　my　diploma；？　he　said　quietly。　He　grabbed　her　kilted　teddy　bear　from　the　corner　of　
her　all…white　canopy　bed　and　hugged　it。　？I？m　not　going　to　Yale　next　year？I？m　going　to　have　to　
stay　here　in　New　York　and　repeat　senior　year。？　Serena　opened　her　eyes　wide　with　surprise。　Not　
going　to　Yale？　Did　Blair　know？　She　looked　at　her　teddy；　as　if　he　might　convey　some　answers；　and　
pulled　the　covers　up　higher　around　her　torso；　shrugging　off　the　thought　of　Blair；　because　with　it　
would　e　guilt；　masses　and　masses　of　guilt。　

？I　wish　I　could　just　take　off。？　Nate　pulled　a　faded　green　T…shirt　over　his　head；　his　voice　muffled　
inside　the　soft　cotton。　？Just　sail　away　and　never　e　back。？　His　head　popped　through　the　cloth；　
and　he　pulled　the　material　over　his　tanned　chest。　

He　ran　his　hands　through　his　hair　and　flopped　back　down　next　to　her。　Her　eyes　were　so　brilliantly；　
deeply　blue　that　it　was　hard　for　him　to　imagine　ever　looking　anywhere　else。　He　looked　at　her　
tanned；　lightly　freckled　face；　and　he　knew　that　he？d　never　forget　the　way　she　looked　right　now？her　
cheeks　flushed　pink；　her　long　body　wrapped　up　in　white　sheets？as　long　as　he　lived。　

If　Blair　finds　out；　that　might　not　be　for　long。　

？What　are　you　going　to　do？？　Serena　asked；　pushing　her　hair　from　her　face。　

？Stay　here；　I　guess；？　Nate　answered　dejectedly。　？It？s　not　like　I？ve　got　much　of　a　choice。？　Serena　
stroked　his　hand；　wishing　she　could　kiss　him　and　make　this　all　better。　The　late…afternoon　sunlight　
filtered　in　through　the　open　windows；　and　she　looked　out　at　the　wide　blue　sky　outside。　She　could　
hear　the　faint　sounds　of　the　city　below；　the　buses　rumbling　by　with　the　posters　of　her　face　on　their　
sides。　Suddenly　her　pulse　began　to　race。　？You　know　。　。　。　I？m　not　so　sure　about　going　to　Yale　either；？　
she　said　quietly。　

？What？？　Nate　demanded；　his　green　eyes　glittering。　？Why？？　？Well；　I　keep　trying　to　picture　it　。　。　。　
but　I　just　can？t。？　She　had　been　about　to　say；whenever　Blair　talks　about　it　；　but　then　she　stopped　
herself。　？And　then　at　that　press　conference　yesterday；　the　director　announced　that　he？s　filming　the　
sequel　toBreakfast　at　Fred？s　in　New　York　in　a　month　and　。　。　。　I　don？t　know。　I　just　。　。　。　I　think　I　need　


to　stay　here。？　The　minute　the　words　left　her　lips；　Serena　knew　they　were　true。　She　wasn？t　sure　if　
she？d　ever　really　wanted　to　go　to　Yale；　but　she　knew　for　certain　she　didn？t　want　to　go　to　Yale　
without　Nate。　And　from　the　way　he　was　staring　at　her；　it　looked　like　the　feeling　was　pletely　
mutual。　

？Really？？　Nate　asked。　He？d　been　picturing　himself　as　the　only　guy　with　a　five　o？clock　shadow　
taking　Algebra　I　at　St。　Jude？s。　But　with　Serena　here；　maybe　he　wouldn？t　feel　so　out　of　place　after　
all。　It　would　be　just　like　always？except　without　Blair。Wait；　Blair。

　Remember　her？　

But　maybe　he　could　still　go　visit　Blair　on　weekends。　People　did　that；　didn？t　they？　Like　having　an　
apartment　in　the　city　and　a　house　in　the　country。　When　he　thought　about　it　that　way；　it　all　seemed　
so　simple。　Why　hadn？t　he　thought　of　it　before？　He　could　spend　weekdays　with　Serena　and　
weekends　and　holidays　with　Blair；　and　everyone　would　be　happy。　

Sounds　like　he？s　thinking　with　the　whole　package。　？Really。？　She　smiled　and　he　pulled　her　closer。　

Then；　with　his　breath　tickling　her　ear；　he　whispered；　？I　love　you　too。？　Aw。　So　cute。　Unless　you？re　
a　certain　girl　with　newly　implanted　Warren　Trii　extensions。　

v　gets　in　touch　with　her　wild　side　

　？Yeeeeehaaaaaaaw！？　

Vanessa　shook　the　golden　hair　from　her　face　and　squared　her　shoulders　before　opening　the　bar？s　
heavy　black　door。　Coyote　Ugly　was　basically　a　frat…boy　bar　ruled　by　domina…trixlike；　Amazonian　
female　bartenders　in　cowboy　hats。　The　bartenders　were　also　fond　of　line　dancing　across　the　
surface　of　the　heavy　wooden　bar；　dousing　the　crowd　with　water？or　beer。　It　wasn？t　exactly　
Vanessa？s　kind　of　place；　but　it　was　the　perfect　location　for　Ruby？s　bachelorette　party。　Ruby　
thought　the　bar；　which　had　been　made　legendary　in　the　totally　watered…down　film　bearing　its　name；　
was　hilarious？in　a　totally　ironic　way；　of　course。　

　Of　course。　

The　bar　was　packed　with　people；　elbow　to　elbow；　mainly　drunken　frat　guys　in　pastel　polo　shirts　
and　loafers。　Three　stunning　female　bartenders　worked　the　crowd　furiously；　throwing　bottles　in　the　
air　and　knocking　back　shots　along　with　the　guys。　The　screech　of　country　music　filled　the　room。　
Vanessa　stomped　across　the　sawdust…covered　floor　in　her　black　Prada　platforms？Blair　
cast…offs？and　looked　around。　Ruby　was　leaning　against　the　wall　wearing　a　short　red　dress　and　
bat　boots；　doing　shots　with　a　group　of　obviously　intoxicated　girls。　Vanessa　walked　up　and　


elbowed　her　sister　in　the　ribs。　

？Watch　it！？　Ruby　yelled；　an　annoyed　look　on　her　face。　？Bitch；？　she　muttered。　

Vanessa　grabbed　her　sister？s　arm　and　leaned　in　closer。　？Ruby；　it？sme　。？　Ruby？s　face　went　blank　
with　shock。　She　reached　up；　touching　the　strands　of　long　blond　hair　framing　Vanessa？s　face；　
staring　at　her　eyes；　carefully　outlined　with　brown　pencil　and　expertly　shadowed？courtesy　of　Ms。　
Blair　Cornelia　Waldorf；　of　course？and　promptly　began　laughing　like　a　lunatic。　

？Oh　my　God；？　she　laughed；　downing　another　shot　of　amber　liquid；　？I　reallyam　wasted。？　As　soon　
as　she　drained　the　glass；　shivering　slightly　as　the　liquor　hit　her　chest；　she　grabbed　Vanessa？s　arms　
again；　looking　her　up　and　down　and　taking　in　the　short　black　Anna　Sui　skirt　and　tight；　beaded　
charcoal　gray　Chlo？　corset　top　Blair　had　practically　shoved　into　Vanessa？s　messenger　
bag。　？Seriously；　Vanessa；　you　look　ridiculous。　But　also　kind　of　。　。　。　hot！？　？Really？？　Vanessa　
reached　up　to　touch　the　wig。　She　was　still　a　little　unfortable　in　this　getup？not　to　mention　
sweltering。　The　room　was　the　temperature　of　a　sauna；　and　her　cascading
