insomnia。　？Vanessa　and　I　are　sharing　your　old　room。？　？Then　I　guess　it？s　sofa　city　for　me。？　His　
sister　sighed；　pulling　out　a　bulging　floral　toiletry　case　from　her　bag。　Dan　stood　up；　raising　his　arms　
over　his　head　and　yawning　loudly。　As　weird　and　unexpected　as　it　was　to　have　both　his　mother　and　
Jenny　home；　it　felt　kind　of　nice　to　have　everybody　under　one　roof。　

Well；almost　everybody　。　。　。　there？s　one　roommate　still　missing。　

Just　then；　the　door　to　his　room　creaked　open；　and　their　mom　shuffled　out；　picking　sleep　from　the　
corners　of　her　eyes。　Her　voluminous　pink　robe　billowed　out　behind　her　as　she　moved；　her　fuzzy　
slippers　scraping　the　floor。　Dan　watched　as　her　eyes　focused　on　her　youngest　child；　and　her　face　lit　
up　with　surprise。　

？Jenny！？　she　exclaimed　rushing　over　and　folding　her　daughter　into　her　tentlike　arms；　？You？re　
here！　You　didn？t　burn　my　apartment　down；　did　you？？　？Nope。　I　just　wanted　to　be　with　you　guys。？　
She　squeezed　her　mother　back。　Dan　watched　as　his　mom　smoothed　back　Jenny？s　unruly　nest　of　
hair　and　kissed　her　on　the　forehead。　He　couldn？t　help　but　be　touched　at　Jenny？s　optimistic；　girlish　
enthusiasm。　If　his　being　gay　had　brought　his　family　together；　maybe　it　wasn？t　such　a　bad　thing　
after　all。　

？Such　a　sweetheart。？　Jeanette　touched　Jenny？s　face　with　her　palm。　？I？ll　make　some　oolong。？　She　
breezed　past　Dan；　stopping　to　smooth　his　hair　like　a　mother　who？d　been　smoothing　hair　all　her　
life。　

Tea？　That　probably　meant　girl　talk。　And　Dan　wasn？t　sure　he　was　ready　to　be　one　of　the　
girls。　？I？m　going　to　bed；？　he　announced；　shuffling　toward　his　room。　

？See　you　in　a　few　hours；？　Jenny　replied　with　a　yawn；　stretching　as　she　followed　their　mom　into　
the　kitchen。　

？？Night；　baby！？　Jeanette　called　out　from　the　kitchen　sink；　where　she　was　busily　filling　the　kettle　
with　water。　

Dan　walked　into　his　room　and　shut　the　door；　then　climbed　into　the　empty　bed。　He　could　hear　his　
mom　and　sister　chattering　away　in　the　kitchen；　whispers　interspersed　with　the　occasional　giggle。　


How　could　they　have　so　much　energy　this　late　at　night？　He？d　never　understand　women。　But　then　
again；　he　barely　understood　himself。　Dan　sighed　and　watched　the　night　change　from　purple　to　gray　
in　the　early　morning　light　as　he　finally　drifted　into　sleep；　still　wondering　sleepily　where　Vanessa　
was　and　if　she　was　okay。　

Aren？t　we　all。

Serena　held　an　ivory　Calvin　Klein　silk　dress　up　to　her　slender　shoulders；　her　blond　hair　falling　
over　her　back　in　a　beautiful；　tangled　mess。　The　slick　material　draped　over　her　perfect　body　like　
running　water。　Blair　had　tried　that　dress　on　earlier　in　the　week；　but　it　had　looked　like　shit　on　her。　

　Jealous　much？　

？What　do　you　think？？　Serena　turned　to　face　Blair；　her　face　flushed　and　glowing　despite　the　
unspeakably　horrible　fluorescent　light　of　the　dressing　room。　Blair　didn？t　answer。　Shouldn？t　Serena　
know　by　now　thateverything　looked　good　on　her？　If　she　didn？t；　Blair　certainly　wasn？t　going　to　tell　
her。　

？Ugh。？　Serena　placed　the　dress　back　on　the　hanger。　？It？d　probably　look　better　on　you　anyway。？　
Blair　rolled　her　eyes　and　stomped　out　of　the　dressing　room。　Serena　had　been　tiptoeing　around　her　
since　they？d　met　up　in　front　of　Barneys　half　an　hour　ago。　First　of　all；　she　had　brought　her　an　iced　
latte　and　a　fudge　brownie？Blair？s　favorite　bination？and　now　there　was　all　this　ass…kissing　talk　
about　the　dress。　Why　was　Serena　being　sonice　all　of　a　sudden？　Not　that　she　wasn？t　always　
nice？but　this　was　overly；　cloyingly　nice。　

Blair　grabbed　a　Milly　NY　green…and…gold　brocade　print　dress　and　held　it　up　to　her　body；　fluffing　
her　newly　extensioned　hair　with　one　hand。　Her　new　golden　streaks　looked　amazing　against　the　
metallic　thread　of　the　dress。　Serena　came　thwacking　out　of　the　dressing　room；　her　tanned　legs　
extending　from　a　short　white　miniskirt；　turquoise　flip…flops　on　her　feet。　

？Hey！？　she　exclaimed；　walking　up　to　Blair。　？That？ll　look　incredible　on　you！？　Blair　stayed　silent　
as　she　hung　the　dress　back　on　the　rack　with　a　snap　of　her　wrist　and　began　manically　flipping　
through　a　rack　of　Stella　McCartney　tunics。　

？So；？　she　began；　her　voice　casual　as　she　turned　to　face　her　friend；　？where　were　you　yesterday？　I　
called　to　see　if　you　wanted　to　get　your　hair　done　with　me；　but　I　kept　getting　your　voice　mail。？　
Serena　looked　at　the　floor；　the　windows；　at　the　rows　of　shining；　expensive　dresses　surrounding　
them？anywhere　but　Blair？s　face。　Did　Blair　know　what　had　happened　between　her　and　Nate？　Had　
Nate　said　something？　Serena　didn？t　think　so；　but　she　couldn？t　be　sure　either。　She？d　thought　that　if　
she　and　Blair　went　shopping　the　way　they　used　to；　that　everything　would　somehow　magically　go　
back　to　normal？in　spite　of　the　fact　that　absolutelynothing　was　normal　anymore。　

Blair　had　been　in　love　with　Nate　for　as　long　as　Serena　could　remember。　The　problem　was；so　had　
she。　And　after　spending　the　entire　day　and　night　in　bed　together　yesterday；　Serena　was　positive　
Nate　loved　her　too。　She　tried　to　hide　the　ridiculous　smile　that　was　in　grave　danger　of　spreading　
across　her　face。　She　and　Nate　were　finally；　really；seriously　going　to　be　together　soon？just　as　soon　
as　Blair　left　for　Yale　on　Sunday。　Serena　didn？t　want　to　hurt　her？that　was　thelast　thing　she　wanted　
to　do？but　she　was　ecstatic　to　have　finally　won　Nate？s　heart。　Even　if　it　meant　breaking　Blair？s。　
Ugh。　Why　did　she　always　have　to　choose　between　her　best　friend　and　her　boyfriend？　


Um　。　。　。　because　technically　he？sBlair？s　boyfriend？　

？Yesterday？　I　don？t　remember　what　I　wa
