three of us!〃
Whoopee!
〃Thanks for telling me;〃 Blair snapped。 She'd imagined sharing a celebratory bottle of champagne
with Serena on the Coates' private beach。 Then she'd give in and call Nate's cell and he'd kidnap
her from the party and make wild love to her on some other beach。
So much for her imagination。
Nate was still standing in the bathtub; his bare feet sprinkled with pot。 She reached out and turned
the shower nozzle on full blast; raining freezing cold water all over his head。 Then yanked off
Serena's towel and tucked it under her arm; slamming the door on their lying; cheating faces as she
left the bathroom。
Lexique or whatever her the fuck her name was drifted into the pool house in her annoying
Missoni tunic; her braids bouncing against her braless breasts; just as Blair was headed out the
door。 〃He's in der; yes? My lover; my Nate?〃
Blair bared her teeth with evil satisfaction。 〃Oh yes。 He's waiting for you in the bathroom;〃 she
told the stupid French bitch; slamming the pool house door behind her and making a beeline for
the poolside bar。
There seemed to be more guys under the tent than girls。 Damian; Lloyd and Marc from the Raves
were mingling with the Constance Billard seniors; handing out cigars and copies of their new
single; 〃Twisted Little Sister;〃 starring none other than Jenny Humphrey on vocals。 The girls had
taken off their T…shirts and were all wearing bright; pastel…colored bikini tops; looking like extras
in one of those Elivis beach movies。
Chuck Bass was trying to talk to Rain Hoffstetter; Laura Salmon; Kati Farkas and Isabel Coates
into joining him at military school。 〃It doesn't really matter where you go to school。 What matters
is how much fun you have;〃 Blair heard him say。 〃Just think how fabulous it would be if we were
all together!〃
Blair wentover to the bar; grabbed a half…full bottle of Absolut;a dn carried it over to the pool。
〃Hey; no glass around the pool!〃 Isabel shouted through her bullhorn。
Blair ignored ger andclimbed up the ladder to the highdive。 She let her towel drop; and padded to
the end of the diving board。
A naked diva in a diamond…studded turban; swigging her favorite beverage。
Ignoring the shocked murmurs of her classmates and the delighted jeers of the guys beneath the
tent; Blair took a moment to rewind。 She and Nate were obviously over… again; and so were she
and Serena… again。 She was living in Brooklyn of all places; with Vanessa; a shaven…headed girl
she'd never spoken to until a week ago。 And she was finally; finally into Yale。
Most of her life had been an endless loop of repetition; filled with the same people; parties and
predictability。 Even her dreams had been predictable; and she liked it like that。 Now she wasn't
sure what to expect。
She lifted the bottle to her lips and took a giant swig before setting it carefully down on the diving
board。 Then she raised her arms up straight as arrows; stood on tiptoe; and dove in。 holding her
breath; she glided beneath the blue…green water; delighting in the silence。 Behind her; the diamond
studded turban bobbed to the surface。
When she really thought about it; this whole year had been a series of highs and lows; with more
lows than highs。 But so what if her life wasn't turning out the way she'd imagined it in the movie
in her head; and her entire supporting cast had turned out to be assholes? She was about to move
the film to a pletely new location and could hire an entire new cast。 And nobody knew how to
steal the show better than Blair did。
Her dark hair broke the surface with a dramatic noisy splash。 The others stared; tittering
underneath the tent; but Blair paid them no mind。 Floating on her back; she chanted a goofy little
rhyme to cheer herself up。
〃Two; four; six; eight only nineteen days till I graduate!〃

HEY PEOPLE!
SENIOR SPAR WEEKEND = SENIOR SICK WEEKEND
Turns out nearly everyone who used the Coateses' steam room or the pool or borrowed a towel
from someone who used the steam room or pool woke up with a disgusting; itchy rash all over
their face。 The origins people were sent home immediately and a serious dermo was called in for
damage control。 Curiously; our bathing beauty B had a nary mark on her face。 The dermo
explained that she was probably immune but could be a carrier。 Curiouser still; the rash looked
exactly like the rash on a certain baby that B had exposed herself to; despite her family's efforts to
keep the baby quarantined。 Well; at least everyone had a good excuse for missing school on Friday!
And with ninety…nine percent of the senior class in quarantine; Constance Billard had no choice
but to give the seniors the entire week off。
B took the opportunity to fly to Paris to see her dad and bumped into her mother in Chanel on the
Left Bank。 Apparently her mom was trying to buy the whole pany as a gift to B for finally
getting into Yale。 As the pany was not for sale; B settled for four skirts; six pairs of
sling…backs; and three evening clutches… how sensible of her! V would have gone with her; but he
was in quarantine; poor thing! Not that she didn't have fun playing doctor with her new bf。 And
what about S and N? He was seen on his way to her Fifth Avenue penthouse on the pretense of
borrowing her rash…soothing skin cream; but methinks he might have enjoyed a little game of
doctor too。
