acceptance to Harvard University?s class of???
Blair had gone to the hair salon without eating any lunch; and this little we…love…Aaron
worshipfest was making her dizzy with disgust。She was the one who should have been openingher
early acceptance letter; but after her botched interview Constance Billard?s college advisor had
told her it was best not to apply early。 Getting into Yale had been Blair?s sole mission in life?well;
besides marrying Nate Archibald and living happily every after in the ivy…covered brick town
house just off Fifth that she already had picked out?but now she?d have to wait until April along
with all the rest of the morons in her class to find out if she?d even gotten in。 It was pletely
unfair。
?Sorry; Blair。? Aaron sipped his champagne。 He?d always been supersensitive about ruffling
Blair?s feathers; but he was feeling too good about himself right now to bother。 ?I?m not going to
apologize for getting in。 I deserve this。?
As if the enormous new science wing his father?s development pany built on campus last
year had absolutely nothing to do with it。
?Fuck you;? Blair replied。 ?In case you forgot; I would be hearing from Yale right now if you
hadn?t kept me up drinking shit beer and eating crappy junk food in that gross motel room the
night before my interview。?
Aaron rolled his eyes。 ?I never told you to kiss your interviewer。?
Serena let out a little snort and Blair glared at her。
?Sorry;? Serena apologized quickly。 ?e on; Blair;? she coaxed。 ?You?re; like; the best student
in our class。 You?re totally getting in。 You just have to wait until April to find out。?
Blair kept on glaring at her。 She didn?t want to wait until April。 She wanted to knownow 。
Aaron lit another herbal cigarette and tilted his chin toward the ceiling to blow a few smoke rings。
Already there seemed to be a sort of lazy; superior air about him; as if he knew he could just drink
champagne all day for the rest of second semester and still go to Harvard。 The fucker。
?Hey;? he yawned。 ?I have to head up to Scarsdale to practice with my band; but let?s go out
later to celebrate。?
Serena stood up on the bed and did a few jumping jacks; as if she really needed the
exercise。 ?Definitely。?
Blair watched Serena?s gorgeous hair fly up into the air above her head and then cascade prettily
down onto her shoulders as Aaron blew more smoke rings。 All of a sudden; Blair couldn?t stand to
be in the same room with them。 ?I have homework to do;? she huffed; reaching up to feel her new
hairdo as she turned to leave。
?Oh my God!? Serena cried; vaulting off of Aaron?s bed。 ?Wait; Blair?yourhair !?
Nice of her to finally notice。
Blair stopped in the doorway and put a hand to where her dark hair fell in a clean line at the nape
