Blair shrugged。 Across the cafeteria; Serena herself was just joining 
the lunch line。 She noticed Blair right away and smiled; waving 
cheerfully as if to say; “I’ll be there in a minute!” Blair blinked; 
pretending she’d forgotten to put in her contacts。 
Serena slid her tray along the metal counter; choosing a lemon 
yogurt and skipping all the hot lunch selections until she came to 
the hot…water dispenser; where she filled up a cup with hot water 
and placed a Lipton tea bag; a slice of lemon; and a packet of sugar 
on the saucer。 Then she carried her tray over to the salad bar; 
where she filled up a plate with a pile of romaine lettuce and poured 
a small puddle of bleu cheese dressing beside it。 She would have 
preferred a toasted ham…and…cheese sandwich in the Gare du Nord 
in Paris; eaten in a hurry before leaping onto her London train; but 
this was almost as good。 It was the same lunch she’d eaten at 
Constance every day since sixth grade。 Blair always got the same 
thing too。 They called it the “diet plate。” 
Blair watched as Serena got her salad; dreading the moment when 
Serena would sit down next to her in all her glory and start trying to 
be friends again。 Ugh。 


“Hey guys;” Serena said; sitting down next to Blair; smiling 
radiantly。 “Just like old times; huh?” She laughed and peeled back 
the top of her yogurt。 The cuffs of her brother’s old shirt were 
frayed; and stray threads dangled in the yogurt’s watery whey。 
“Hello; Serena;” Kati and Isabel said in unison。 
Blair looked up at Serena and turned the corners of her glossy lips 
upwards。 It was almost a smile。 
Serena stirred the yogurt up and nodded at Blair’s tray; where the 
remains of her bagel with cream cheese and cucumber were 
strewn。 “I guess you outgrew the diet plate;” she observed。 
“I guess;” Blair said。 She smashed a lump of cream cheese into her 
paper napkin with her thumb; staring at Serena’s sloppy cuffs in 
bewilderment。 It was fine to wear your brother’s old clothes in ninth 
and tenth grade。 Then; it was cool。 But now? It just seemed 。 。 。 
dirty。 
“So my schedule totally sucks;” Serena said; licking her spoon。 “I 
don’t have a single class with you guys。” 
“Um; that’s because you’re not taking any APs;” Kati observed。 
“You’re lucky;” Isabel sighed。 “I have so much work to do I don’t 
even have time to sleep。” 
“Well; at least I’ll have more time to party;” Serena said。 She 
nudged Blair’s elbow。 “What’s going on this month; anyway? I feel 
so pletely out of it。” 
Blair sat up straight and picked up her plastic cup; only to find there 
was no water left in it to drink。 She knew she should tell Serena all 
about the Kiss on the Lips party and how Serena could help with the 
preparations and how fun it was all going to be。 But somehow she 
couldn’t bring herself to do it。 Serena was out of it; all right。 And 
Blair wanted her to stay that way。 
“It’s been pretty lame。 There really isn’t much going on until 
Christmas;” Blair lied; shooting a warning glance at Kati and Isabel。 
“Really?” Serena said; disappointed。 “Well what about tonight? You 
guys want to go out?” 
Blair glanced at her friends。 She was all for going out; but it was 
only Tuesday。 The most she ever did on a Tuesday night was rent a 
movie with Nate。 Suddenly Blair felt seriously old and boring。 Leave 
it to Serena to make her feel boring。 
“I have an AP French test tomorrow。 Sorry; Serena;” Blair said。 She 
stood up。 “Actually; I have a meeting with Madame Rogers right 
now。” 
Serena frowned and began to chew on her thumbnail; a new habit 
she’d picked up at boarding school。 “Well; maybe I’ll give Nate a 
call。 He’ll go out with me;” she said。 
Blair picked up her tray and resisted hurling it in Serena’s face。 


Keep your hands off him! she wanted to scream; jumping onto the 
table ninja…style。 Hiyeeh…yah!
“I’ll see you later; guys;” she said; and walked stiffly away。 
Serena sighed and flicked a piece of lettuce off her plate。 Blair was 
being boring。 When were they going to start having fun? She looked 
up at Kati and Isabel hopefully; but they were getting ready to 
leave; too。 
“I’ve got a stupid college advisor meeting;” Kati said。 
“And I have to go up to the art room and put my painting away;” 
Isabel said。 
“Before anyone sees it?” Kati joked。 
“Oh; shut up;” Isabel said。 
They stood up with their trays。 
“It’s so good to have you back; Serena;” Kati said in her fakest 
voice。 
“Yeah;” Isabel agreed。 “It really is。” 
And then they walked away。 
Serena twirled her spoon around and around in her yogurt 
container; wondering what had happened to everyone。 They were 
all acting like freaks。 What did I do? she asked herself; chewing on 
her thumbnail again。 
Good question。

WHERE THE BOYS ARE 

Thanks for checking in; although most of you had little to say aboutS or B。 Most of you just want to know more about the boys。

Your E…mail: 

Dear gg; D sounds sweet。 Whats he so hot for S for? Shes just a 
ho。 —Bebe 
Dear Bebe; I happen to know that D is not that innocent。 He was 
up to some kinky shit back at summer camp in eighth grade。 —GG 

dear GG; what does N do at lunchtime?? i go to school near him; 
and i wonder if i see him all the time without realizing it。 Yikes! — 
ShyGirl 
Okay; if you want to know so badly; then I’ll tell you。 
St。 Jude’s lets its senior boys out for lunch。 So right now N is 
probably headed up to that little pizza joint on the corner of 
Eightieth and Madison。 Vino’s? Vinnie’s? Whatever。 Anyway; they 
have good slices and one of the delivery guys sells pretty decent 
pot。 N is one of his regulars。 There’s usually a group of kids from 


L’Ecole standing around outside the pizza place; so N will stop and 
flirt with this one girl who I’ll call Claire; who acts all shy and 
pretends she doesn’t speak English; but she’s actually really bad at 
French and a huge slut。
N has this cute little gag where he buys two slices and he always 
offers Claire one。 She holds onto it the whole time they’re talking 
and finally takes a little weeny bit off the tip of the slice。 Then N 
goes; “I can’t believe you did that; you’re eating my pizza!” and 
swipes the thing out of her hands and eats the whole thing in like 
two bites。 This makes Claire laugh so hard her boobs nearly pop 
out of her shirt。 The L’Ecole girls all wear really tight clothes and 
short skirts and high heels。 They’re like; the ho’s of the Upper East 
Side school system。 N likes to flirt with them; and so far that’s as far 
as it’s gone。 But if B leads him on any longer; he might start giving 
Claire more than just a bite of his pizza。 This time; though; Claire 
surprises him by asking if he’s heard about S 。 Claire claims to 
have heard that S not only got pregnant last year; but that she 
gave birth in France。 Her baby’s name is Jules and he is alive and 
well and living in Marseilles。 
As for D—well; he’s sitting outside in the Riverside Prep courtyard 
again; reading poetry and eating PB and J。 I know that sounds 
extremely sad; but don’t worry about D。 His time is ing。 Stay 
tuned。 


Sightings
K was seen returning a pink; army…print handbag at Barneys。
Personally; I thought the bag was cute。 But someone must have 
talked her out of it。 
You know you love me; 


“Hey Nate。 It’s Serena。 I’m just calling to see what you’re up to。 I 
thought maybe we could go out tonight; but you know what? I’m 
tired。 It’s only ten; but I think I’m going to bed。 I’ll see you this 
weekend though; okay? I can’t wait。 Love you。 Nighty…night。” 
Serena hung up。 Her room felt very quiet。 Even Fifth Avenue was 
still; except for the occasional passing taxi。 
From where she sat on her big canopy bed; she could see the silver…
framed photograph of her family; taken in Greece when she was 
twelve。 The captain of the sailboat they’d chartered had taken the 
picture。 They were all in bathing suits; and her brother; Erik; who 
was fourteen at the time; was making a big fart kiss on Serena’s 
cheek while their parents looked on; laughing。 Serena had gotten 
her period for the first time on that trip。 She’d been so 
embarrassed; she couldn’t bear to tell her parents; but what was 
she supposed to do; trapped on a boat? They were anchored off the 



island of Rhodes; and while their parents were snorkeling and 
Serena and Erik were supposed to be having windsurfing lessons; 
Erik had swum ashore; stolen a Vespa; and bought her some maxi 
pads。 He came back with them in a little plastic bag; tied on top of 
his head; her hero。 
Serena had thrown her ruined underwear overboard。 They were 
probably still there; stuck on a reef somewhere。 
Now Erik was a freshman at Brown; and Serena never got to see 
him。 He had been in France with her that summer; but they’d both 
spent the whole time chasing or being chased by boys and girls; so 
they’d never really had time to talk。 
Serena picked
