B with her mother, arguing in a taxi in front of Takashimaya. N enjoying a joint on the steps of the Met. C buying new school shoes at Barneys. And a familiar, tall, eerily beautiful blond girl emerging from a New Haven line train in Grand Central Station. Approximate age, seventeen. Could it be? S is back?!
THE GIRL WHO LEAVES FOR BOARDING SCHOOL, GETS KICKED OUT, AND COMES BACK
Yes, S is back from boarding school. Her hair is longer, paler. Her blue eyes have that deep mysteriousness of kept secrets. She is wearing the same old fabulous clothes, now in rags from fending off New England storms. This morning S’s laughter echoed off the steps of the Met, where we will no longer be able to enjoy a quick smoke and a capuccino without seeing her waving to us from her parents’ apartment across the street. She has picked up the habit of biting her fingernails, which makes us wonder about her even more, and while we are all dying to ask her why she got kicked out of boarding school, we won’t, because we’d really rather she had stayed away. But S is definitely here.
Just to be safe, we should all synchronize our watches. If we aren’t careful, S is going to win over our teachers, wear that dress we couldn’t fit into, eat the last olive, have sex in our parents’ beds, spill Campari on our rugs, steal our brothers’ and our boyfriends’ hearts, and basically ruin our lives and piss us all off in a major way.
I’ll be watching closely. I’ll be watching all of us. It’s going to be a wild and wicked year. I can smell it.
Love,

They had known each other since both of them where young, in kindergarten to be precise. She was his best friend’s girlfriend, and he was a pain and a nuisance to her. Chuck bass was a notorious among the Upper East Side for hard drinking and women. It was a known fact that he had slept his way through half of the Upper East Side, but there was only one woman he slept with who really mattered to him, only one woman he truly cared for, and only one woman he would ever truly love.
Blair Waldorf, she thought she was in pag-ibig with Nate Archibald, her boyfriend since as long as she could remember. Blair and Nate where the perfect couple among the residents of the Upper East Side. They matched each other perfectly in every way possible, until one night when, they had an argument and Serena was out of town, who did Blair turn to for support.....? Chuck Bass.
