is？you？ve been posing with those photos with him all around town。 You？re the sweetest。 We both
really appreciate it。？
Those photos？ The kiss had been just for photographers？ Thad had been using her？ Serena
slumped against the wall。 She couldn？t believe she？d been so mistaken。 She？d thought they？d had
a real connection； but he was just a beautiful gay guy with an adorable boyfriend he had to keep
secret。 She had to sit down。
？Yeah。？ Serena dropped her bag on the ground and took a seat on the builtin sofa； kicking off her
wedges and curling her legs up underneath her。？Well；you know；Thad？s the greatest。 I？m just
happy to help out。？ She sighed。 It was almost the truth。 She should have been annoyed or mad or
hurt or something； but really； she couldn？t believe she hadn？t figured it out sooner。
Not that she？d gotten too many clues。
？I told him he was so lucky to be working with such an awesome costar。 I mean； sometimes his
leading ladies get so crazy and possessive they actually think they？redating 。 It？s like they can？t
tell the difference between fantasy and reality。 I mean； hello？ It？s justpretend 。？
？Mmm。？ Serena nodded。
？But not you；？ Serge gushed。 ？You？re like an old pro； even though this is your first movie！ I
want you to be in all of Thad？s movies from now on。 Promise you will！？
？Oh； stop。？ Serena giggled。 It was hard to be upset or hurt when both Thaddeus and his boyfriend
were sonice。
？No； I mean it；？ Serge cried； leaping out of his seat and throwing himself onto the couch next to
her。 ？Youhave to e to our place in Palm Springs for the weekend。 We？ll have such a ball！ And
if you？re interested 。。。 I think I might know an awesome guy for you。？
？Oh； really？？That sounded fun。
And she could definitely trust his taste in men！

hey people！
I have literally five minutes to write this？I don？t know when summer vacation got so hectic； but
between tennis lessons at Ocean Colony and cocktail hour on the roof of the Met； I just don？t
know where the day goes。 Let？s start with your e…mail； because there？s only one subject on
everyone？s mind lately。。。。
Q：
Dear GG；
Do you know how I can get an invite to the big party that？s ing this Thursday？ My boyfriend
claims to be taking me； but I suspect he？s bluffing and at the last minute his Jeep will break down
or something。 But I really； really want to go； so I need a plan B。 Help！
？*Struck
A：
Dear *Struck；
The word is they？re watching the guest list pretty closely。 So hopefully your man isn？t
bluffing？or you？re going to be stuck watching the limos arrive like just another moner。 Sorry！
？GG
Q：
Dear GG；
I was just in Amsterdam with my family and managed to sneak away to check out the real sights。
After smoking some hash in a coffee shop； I swear I saw that girl J dancing in a window in the red
light district。 Now I wish I？d asked for a lap dance。 Tell me it was her！
？Despr8
A：
Dear Despr8；
Sorry。 Her parents might be alternative； but I？m afraid our J isn？t。 She？s off studying fine art and
maybe the fine art of fine boys； but lap dancing in the red light district and skeezy tourists are not
part of the curriculum。
？GG

gossip girl
v？s date with destiny
Teetering ever so slightly on her black peep…toe Celine plat…form sandals？okay； so they were
technically Blair？s； but she knew her onetime roommate would never e back to Williamsburg
to collect any of the stuff she？d left behind？ Vanessa thwacked over the cobblestones of the
too…trendy…for…a…place…that…smells…like…dead…meat Meatpacking District toward the unmarked
rusty door of Ken Mogul？s massive live/work loft。
Despite her classmate Serena van der Woodsen？s drunken promises to put a good word in with
him at Blair？s wild graduation party a couple of weeks before； Vanessa Abrams had never
seriously expected to hear from Ken Mogul again。 Earlier that year； he？d taken an interest in her
career when some nearly…X…rated film footage she？d shot of Jenny Humphrey and Nate Archibald
hooking up in Central Park surfaced online and tried to take her under his wing as a prot？g？。 But
Vanessa didn？t like the idea of being underanyone？s wing； and working on a major Hollywood
production out in LA wasn？t exactly her thing。 She was more a dead…pigeons…and…used…condom
film auteur than maker of big teen block…busters； butBreakfast at Fred？s was going to be shot right
on her doorstep at Barneys uptown。 It was tempting to write it off as a learning experience。 Still；
something about it made her uneasy。 She rang the buzzer marked only with the director？s initials
and waited； fiddling nervously with her clothes。 Nearly her entire outfit had been garnered from
the spoils Blair had left behind。 She？d paired a black sleeveless Mayle cowl…neck top with her
own tattered black jeans； Blair？s clunky Celine sandals； and the steel…gray leather DKNY
messenger bag Blair used to carry her laptop in。 The look was sophisticated and artsy： she looked
like someone who didn？t care about things like looking sophisticated。
Like sheever cared？
Suddenly the door flew open to reveal an incredibly tall girl sporting super…short cutoffs and a
pink tank…top。 Her skin was dark brown and flawless； her hair was long； jet black； and perfectly
straight； and her eyes were huge； green； and sparkling。 She smiled； showing off a mouthful of
absolutely perfect white teeth。
All the better to eat you with 。 。 。
？Yeah？？ the Afro…Asian model…goddess demanded with a hostile grimace。 She looked almost like
an evil character in that Xbox game Jade Empire； and Vanessa could imagine being decapitated
with a flick of her long； lean； fighting…machine wrist。
？Um； yeah； I？m here to see Ken。？
？e on up；？ Jade Empire muttered； turning around。 The heavy steel door slammed shut as
Vanessa followed her up a narrow cement staircase and into a huge； bright； open room。 A forest of
rusting steel columns supported the vaulted ceiling； and a bank of windows showcased an
incredible view of the Hudson River。 The vast space was divided by a long； open bookcase and
was overflowing with heavy art books and vinyl records； framed photographs and dusty vases。
The latest Arcade Fire album blasted from tiny Bose speakers mounted to the top of the bookcase；
and the music echoed all around。
？He？s in here somewhere；？ Jade Empire explained； clearly disinterested。 ？You？ve got an
appointment； right？？
