Re: Serena Celia Van Der Woodsen
"B!, that's not even fair!" Even the words tasted sour in my mouth as I recited them back. So what if Blair got this one thing? Why should I care so much. I knew why I cared. I wanted it all. Here I am a grown adult and I still envied my best friend. What did that say about me? It made me petty and that doesn't sit well with me. Blair and I have always shared everything so what if she's gotten this one thing from me. I can be an adult, I can be happy for my best friend, right?
I thought it'd be easier than this. Easier than sitting alone in my room and wondering why the hell Blair hasn't called me back. The bitchiness I felt from the woman was a little more than I could take. If she was so mad at me why couldn't she just tell me. So what, I had thrown a slight fit when Blair had applied to the same college as me, and she just happened to get a glowing letter of recommendation that even I could never hope to grab. Still, I felt like she was cheating, like she had to get something as purposeful as a letter to beat me. I wonder if I sound bitter.
Day Three and I still have yet to talk to Blair. I can't bring myself to do it. I spoke with Dan today. His writing is going great. I really hope that he continues on this path. I like seeing him happy. It was the one thing that put the biggest smile onto my face. I think I miss him. I wonder if it's possible for anyone to get a real third chance. Dan seems like he hasn't quite moved on from me either but, with Dan it's hard to tell. All I know is that I may be resurrecting my old crush. Great, just wait until Gossip Girl gets a load of this.
Well, it's finally happened. Blair blew up on me today in public. We had decided to have lunch at Butter. Something I knew I shouldn't have done. I could tell that it was going to get bad and I didn't even care. I told her my feelings and in typical Blair fashion, she disregarded them completely. I get so tired of her, and I know I shouldn't because of course, she is my best friend, she has for so long but...I can't help but feel betrayed and jaded by her all of the time. I wonder if I will forever have to pay for my indiscretion with Nate. It doesn't seem fair.
Chuck is coming over today. Apparently along with being Blair's boyfriend he's decided to take on the role of mediator. I like Chuck, I mean, he's my step brother and everything but his newfound redemption role is really beginning to wear on me. This is getting ridiculous. If Blair wants to bitch and moan at me some more she shouldn't send her boy toy over, I wonder if she knew that by sending Chuck I wouldn't be able to send him away. Touche, B. No one ever said you weren't smart.
Re: Serena Celia Van Der Woodsen
Running forth back into her room, Serena flipped back her long golden tendrils. "I'm going to be sooo late." Huffing to herself as she carried a pair of jeans tossing them on the bed, sighing and throwing a hand up at the half dry pair of pants. Huffing out again, she blew her hair from her face and looked around. Now what was she going to wear. Serena figured she would have at least one decent outfit to go out and meet Dan with. As friends of course. Dan had called her up and asked her to meet him in Times Square. Something Serena of course jumped at. Though, she figured if she were to tell Nate where she was going, he wouldn't be very happy, but Serena figured if Nate cared enough about her and trusted her. There wasn't really any harm. At least, that was what she was going to keep thinking. Since the funeral and the reception, things had calmed down for Serena, though not necessarily in a good way. After Chuck's complete drama queen move, everything had been about him lately.
Opening her closet door now, Serena ticked her head to the side, finally extracting a dark blue dress, nodding lightly, figuring it would have to do, Serena finally made to get dressed. If Dan was the same as Serena had remembered him, it wouldn't really matter what she had wore anyway, it would just be the fact that she had bothered to show up and that she was there. Even after their breakup, Serena still felt the need to show Dan that just because your family had a bit of money behind their name didn't mean that they were all stuck up and snobby. In fact, the only two people Serena really knew and saw on a daily basis like that were Chuck and Blair. And even then it was easy to tell that their lives were nothing but drama. Running her fingers quickly through her soft curls, making sure her hair was at least presentable, Serena ran back from her room, going towards the front door, her navy blue gaze catching the clock and groaning. She really was going to be late. Making a light face, she hoped Dan wouldn't feel stood up and leave.
Getting into the cab outside of her house, she smiled lightly at the man as she gave him the directions to her destination. Serena was actually lightly surprised that Dan had called her up. She figured for some reason that he wouldn't want to see her. Or at very least, feel hesitant because she was with Nate now, and it wasn't as if Dan and Nate were the best of friends. Nate was a good guy, and an even better boyfriend, but the rivalry between the two had been there for as long as Serena could really remember, and the blond couldn't help but think it was her fault. Clasping her hands in her lap, she sighed lightly, watching the city scenery pass her by. It was a cold day today, though a lot warmer than it had been, but the weather was erratic, and Serena wouldn't be surprised if it switched in the middle of the day and just began to snow. Serena was exceptionally happy that she didn't have any other plans today. The day could be spent hanging out with an old friend and catching up, talking about things that really mattered besides the next new fashion line or what Chuck Bass was going to do next.

Shaking away her thoughts as the cab slid to a stop, she thanked the man quickly, handing him a fifty dollar bill and not waiting for the change as she slipped out of the cab, going up onto the sidewalk as she moved swiftly. Serena knew the exact place into which Dan referred when he had called. Her silver flats making slight noise as she almost speed walked to her destination. The tree coming into view, Serena couldn't help the huge smile that slid on her face as her eyes focused in on the male in front of the tree. Slightly out of place and looking so very uncomfortable, Serena had to laugh lightly, but shaking her head, a smile still wide on her face, she threw a hand up, waving it lightly. "Dan!" Calling out to him to show that she had really shown up, Serena made her way to the male, her face still completely lit up as she made her way to him, stopping only a foot or so away and shaking her head. "I'm sorry I'm late, I was dealing with my mother." Flashing him a warm smile, she brought up a hand to brush her hair from her face before nodding, a slight grimace pulling on her face. "I didn't keep you waiting for too long did I?"
