Cyrus caught Nate in the men’s room。 
“You and Blair have a fight?” Cyrus asked。 He unzipped his pants 
and stood at the urinal。 
Lucky Nate。 
Nate shrugged as he washed his hands。 “Kind of;” he said。 
“Let me guess; it was about sex; right?” Cyrus said。 
Nate blushed and pulled a paper towel out of the dispenser。 “Well; 
sort of 。 。 。” he said。 He really didn’t want to get into it。 
Cyrus flushed the urinal and joined Nate at the sinks。 He washed his 
hands and began fussing with his tie; which was bright pink with 
yellow lions’ heads on it。 Very Versace。 
Read: tacky。 
“The only thing couples really fight about is sex and money;” Cyrus 
observed。 



Nate stood there with his hands in his pockets。 
“That’s all right; kid。 I’m not going to give you a lecture or anything。 
This is my future stepdaughter we’re talking about。 I’m sure as hell 
not going to tell you how to get into her pants。” 
Cyrus chuckled to himself and left the bathroom; leaving Nate to 
stare after him。 He wondered if Blair knew Cyrus was planning on 
marrying her mother。 
Nate turned on the tap and splashed cold water on his face。 He 
studied himself in the mirror。 He’d been up late last night with the 
boys; playing stupid drinking games to Tomb Raider。 Every time 
they saw Angelina Jolie’s nipples; they had to drink。 He’d tried to 
drown his thoughts of Blair and Serena in as much booze as he 
could swallow; and now he was paying for it。 His face was pale; 
there were brownish…purple circles under his eyes; and his cheeks 
were hollow。 He looked like shit。 
As soon as this damned brunch was over; he was heading into the 
park for a smoke in the sun and couple of tall…boys。 The perfect 
cure…all。 
But first he’d have to flirt with Blair a little bit。 Enough to make her 
want him again。 
Atta boy。 


Instead of going back to her table when she left the ladies’ room; 
Blair wound her way across the room; looking for Kati and Isabel’s 
table。 
“Blair! Over here!” Kati called; patting the empty chair next to her。 
Their parents and friends were working the room; socializing; so the 
girls had the table to themselves。 
“Here;” Isabel said; handing Blair a glass full of champagne and 
orange juice。 
“Thanks;” Blair said; taking a sip。 
“Jeremy Scott Tomkinson just came over and tried to get us to e 
to the park with him;” Kati said。 She giggled。 “He’s kind of cute; you 
know; in a Waspoid kind of way。” 
Hey; cool word! 
Isabel turned to Blair; rolling her eyes。 “Isn’t this boring? How’s your 
table?” 
“Don’t ask;” Blair said。 “Guess who I’m sitting with?” 
The other two girls sniggered; they didn’t have to guess。 
“Have you seen that billboard of her?” Isabel asked Blair。 
Blair nodded and rolled her eyes。 
“What’s it supposed to be; anyway?” Kati said。 “Her belly button?” 
Blair still had no idea。 “Who cares?” 
“She has no shame;” Isabel ventured。 “I actually feel kind of sorry 



for her。” 
“Me too;” Kati agreed。 
“Well; don’t;” Blair said fiercely。 
Grrr。 


Nate pushed open the men’s room door at exactly the same time 
that Serena pushed open the ladies’。 Together; they walked down 
the hallway back to the table。 
“Nate;” Serena said; smoothing her new brown suede skirt over her 
legs。 “Can you please explain why you’re not talking to me?” 
“I’m not not talking to you;” Nate said。 “See; I’m talking to you right 
now。” 
“Barely;” Serena said。 “What happened? What’s wrong? Did Blair 
say something to you about me?” 
Instinctively; Nate reached into his jacket pocket and fingered the 
flask of whiskey that was hidden there。 He looked down at the 
marble floor; avoiding Serena’s beautiful sad eyes。 
“We should get back;” Nate said; speeding up。 
“Fine;” Serena answered; trailing after him slowly。 
She had that sour salty taste in the back of her throat again; the 
taste of tears。 She’d been holding them back for too many days 
now; and she could feel a tidal wave ing on。 All of a sudden she 
would start sobbing; and she wouldn’t be able to stop。 
When Nate and Serena took their places at the table; Chuck 
smirked at them knowingly。 How was it? his face seemed to say。 
Serena wanted to hit him。 
She ordered another cup of coffee and dumped four teaspoons of 
sugar in it and stirred and stirred; like she was trying to stir a hole 
through the cup; the saucer; the table; and the floor; burrowing her 
way into some old pharaoh’s tomb where she could cry and cry and 
no one would find her。 
Nate ordered a Bloody Mary。 
“Bottoms up!” Chuck said cheerfully; banging his glass against 
Nate’s and taking a big gulp。 
Blair was back at the table。 She had already devoured her crème 
brulée and was working on her mother’s。 It was full of chicken 
abortions; but she didn’t care—she was going to throw it all up in a 
minute anyway。 
“Hey Blair;” Nate said softly; causing Blair to drop her spoon with a 
clatter。 He smiled and leaned across the table。 “That looks 
awesome;” he said。 “Can I have a bite?” 
Blair’s hand fluttered nervously to her heart。 Sexy Nate。 Her Nate。 
God; she wanted him。 But she wasn’t going to give up that easily。 
She had her pride。 



Blair regained her posure and pushed her plate toward him; 
reaching for her drink and downing the rest of it in one big swallow。 
“You can have the rest;” she said; and stood up。 “Excuse me。” Then 
she clacked away in her heels to stick her finger down her throat in 
the ladies’ room。 
Some lady。

hey people! 
I thought S looked cute in her picture in the Sunday Times Styles 
section。 Although her teachers probably weren’t thrilled to see her 
double…fisting martinis on a school day。 To tell you the truth; I’m 
kind of over the whole thing。 I mean; isn’t it enough that we have to 
see that picture of her every time we use public transportation? 
Obviously you’re not over it yet; though。 

Your E…mail 

hey gg;i went to the show at the gallery and looked for ur picture。 
very sexy。 i like ur column too。 u rule。—Bigfan 

Dear Bigfan; As long as you are not a stalker; I guess I’m flattered。 
—GG 

Dear Gossip Girl; When I saw S ’s picture in the paper; I had an 
idea!! Are you S ? If you are; you are very sneaky。 Also; my dad 
loves you and wants you to write a book。 He’s got lots of 
connections。 If you tell me who you are; he can make you famous。 
—JNYHY 

Hey JNYHY; You are very sneaky yourself。 And not to brag or 
anything; but I’m already kind of famous。 Infamous is more like it。 
All the more reason for me not to tell you who I am。 —GGSightingsD was seen returning a gorgeous Armani tux at Barneys and 
renting a much less gorgeous one at a formal store。 His sister J was 
seen buying underwear at La Petite Coquette; although she 
chickened out on the thong。 N was seen buying a big bag of pot in 
Central Park。 Tell me something new。 B was seen in the J。 Sisters 
salon getting another Brazilian wax。 The old one must have started 
to itch。 S was seen with her feet out her bedroom window; letting 
her toenails dry。 I don’t think she’s ever spent this much time at 
home in her entire life。 Maybe she should get a cat or something。 
Meow。 
TWO QUESTIONS 
First: If you knew about a party that you weren’t invited to; wouldn’t 
you go; just to piss people off? I would。 


Second: If you’d made up your mind to go to the party; wouldn’t 
you want to really rub people’s noses in it by looking pletely 
gorgeous and stealing everyone’s boyfriends? Definitely。 
But who knows what S will decide to do。 That girl is full of 
surprises。 。 。 。 
At least I’ve given us all something to think about while we’re 
getting our pedicures; plucking our eyebrows; and squeezing our 
zits。 
See you at the party! 
You know you love me; 


“Ugly; ugly; ugly;” Serena said; wadding her new black dress into a 
ball and tossing it onto her bed。 
A gorgeous Tocca dress? e on; how ugly could it be? 
Each day that week; Serena had dressed in her maroon uniform; 
gone to school; e home; watched some TV; eaten dinner; 
watched some more TV; and gone to sleep。 She even did some 
homework。 She spoke to no one except her parents and her 
teachers and maybe a passing greeting to the girls at school。 She 
was beginning to feel only half…there; like the shadow of her former 
self; a girl people had known once; but couldn’t quite remember 
anymore。 And for the first time in her entire life; she felt ugly and 
awkward。 Her eyes and hair looked dull to her; and her beautiful 
smile and cool demeanor had been roped off until further notice。 
Now it was Friday; the night of the Kiss on the Lips party。 And the 
question she couldn’t answer: to go or not to go? 
It used to be; before fancy parties like this; Serena and her friends 
would spend half the night getting dressed together—swilling ginand…
tonics; dancing around in their underwear; trying on crazy 
outfits。 But tonight Serena rummaged through her closet alone。 
There was the pair of jeans with the rip in the leg where she’d 
snagged them on a barbed…wire fence in Ridgefield。 There was the 
white satin dress she’d worn to the Christmas dance in ninth grade。 
Her brother’s old leather jacket。 Her moldy tennis shoes that should 
have been thrown out two years ago。 And what was this? A red wool 
sweater—Nate’s。 Serena held it to her face and smelled it。 It 
smelled like her; not him。 
Toward the back of the closet was a black velvet flapper dress that 
Serena had bought with Blair at a vintage store。 It was a dress to 
wear while drinking and dancing and lounging around decoratively 
in a huge house full of people having a good time。 It reminded 
Serena of the good…time gal she’d been when she bought the dress 
—her old self; the girl she’d been up until two weeks ago。 She let 
her robe drop to the floor and slipped the dress on over her head。 



Maybe it would give her back some of her power。 
Barefoot; she padded into her parents’ dressing room; where they 
were getting ready for their own black…tie affair。 
“What do you think?” Serena asked; doing a little twirl in front of 
them。 
“Oh; Serena; you’re not wearing that。 Tell me you’re not;” her 
mother exclaimed; fastening a long rope of pearls around her neck。 
“What’s wrong with it?” Serena said。 
“It’s an old ratty thing;” Mrs。 van der Woodsen told her。 “It’s just the 
sort of dress my grandmother was buried in。” 
“What’s wrong with one of those outfits you bought with your 
mother last weekend?” Mr。 van der Woodsen suggested。 “Didn’t you 
buy anything to wear to the party?” 
“Of course she did;” Mrs。 van der Woodsen said。 “She bought a 
lovely black dress。” 
“That makes me look like a fat nun;” Serena said grumpily。 She put 
her hands on her hips and posed in front of her mother’s full…length 
mirror。 “I like this dress。 It’s got character。” 
Her mother sighed disapprovingly。 “Well; what’s Blair wearing?” she 
asked。 
Serena stared at her mother and blinked。 Under normal 
circumstances she would have known exactly what Blair was 
wearing; down to her underwear。 And Blair would have insisted on 
going shoe…shopping together; because if you bought a new dress; 
you had to have a pair of new shoes。 Blair loved shoes。 
“Blair told everyone to wear vintage;” Serena lied。 
Her mother was about to respond when Serena heard her phone 
ring in her bedroom。 Was it Nate calling to apologize? Blair? She 
raced down the hall in her bare feet; scrambling to pick it up。 
“Hello?” she said breathlessly。 
“Yo; bitch。 Sorry I haven’t called in a while。” 
Serena took a deep breath and sat down on her bed。 It was Erik; her 
brother。 
“Hey;” she said。 
“Saw you in the paper last Sunday。 You are crazy; aren’t you?” Erik 
laughed。 “What did Mom say?” 
“Nothing。 It’s like I can do whatever I want now。 Everyone thinks I’m 
like; ruined or something;” Serena said; fumbling for the right 
words。 
“That’s not true;” Erik said。 “
