hers　was　a　little　used　looking；　like　she？d　borrowed　it　from　her　grandmother　or　something。

Guess　she　didn？t　get　the　message　that　capes　are　back　in　style　thisfall　；　not　this　spring。

？Oh；　but　after　she？s　done　will　youplease　tell　us　all　about　the　Les　Best　show；　Serena？？　Vicky

pleaded。　？Youpromised　。？

Serena　giggled　as　if　she　hadtons　of　crazy　stories　to　tell。　Blair　wanted　to　smack　her。　？The　craziest

thing　was　that　I　had　a　snowball　fight　with　Les　Best　himself　and　I　didn？t　even　know　it　was　him！？

Serena　glanced　at　Blair；　who　was　glaring　at　her。　？Anyway；　I？ll　save　it　for　the　end；　if　there？s　time。？

She　turned　back　to　Elise。　？What　was　it　you　were　saying？？

Elise？s　face　turned　purple　as　a　plum。　？I…I　wanted　to　talk　about　kissing；？　she　stammered。　？About

kissinggirls　。？

Jenny　kicked　the　legs　of　Elise？s　chair。　Mary；　Cassie；　and　Vicky　snickered　and　nudged　each

other？s　elbows。　This　was　going　to　be　good。　A　rumor　had　gone　around　awhile　back　that　Blair　and

Serena　had　kissed　each　other　in　the　hot　tub　in　the　hotel　suite　Chuck　Bass？s　family　kept　downtown

in　the　Tribeca　Star。

？I　think　anyone　should　be　able　to　kiss　anyone；？　Serena　replied。　？Kissing　is　fun！？

Blair　forked　a　giant　piece　of　chocolate　cake　into　her　mouth；　trying　to　e　up　with　something　to

top　what　Serena　had　just　said。　？Guys　like　to　watch　girls　kiss；？　she　declared　with　her　mouth

full。　？They　do　it　all　the　time　in　the　movies；　just　to　turn　guys　on。？　This　was　true。　They？d　even

talked　about　it　in　Mr。　Beckham？s　film　class。

？So　Serena；　whatwas　it　like　to　wear　all　those　cool　Les　Best　clothes？？　Jenny　asked；　desperate　to

change　the　subject。

Serena　stretched　her　long；　lithe　arms　over　her　gorgeous　blond　head　and　sighed　happily。　？You

really　want　to　know？？

Everyone　in　the　group　except　Blair　and　Elise　nodded　eagerly。　？Okay；　I？ll　tell　you。？

Blair　rolled　her　eyes；　daring　herself　to　shut　Serena　up　by　announcing　the　news　of　her　torrid　affair

with　a　married　thirty…eight…year…old　man；　which　was　a　hell　of　a　lot　more　interesting　than　prancing

around　on　a　runway　in　dumb　clothes　no　one　wanted　to　wear　anyway。　She　glanced　down　at　the

table　where　Elise　was　furiously　scribbling　her　name　over　and　over　on　a　sheet　of　notebook

paper。Elise　Wells。　Miss　Elise　Wells。　Miss　Elise　Patricia　Wells。　E。P。　Wells。

Suddenly　Blair　felt　the　entire　contents　of　her　stomach　do　a　back　walkover　into　her　throat。Wells？

That　wasOwen　？s　last　name。　And　Elise　had　just　said　she　thought　herfather　was　having　anaffair　。

Owen　hadn？t　said　anything　to　her　about　a　daughter；　but　now　that　she　thought　about　it；　Elise　had

his　same　eyes；　and　on　the　stoop　Elise　had　lit　two　cigarettes　exactly　the　same　way　Owen　had　Friday

night　in　the　bar。Christ　。　For　all　Blair　knew；　Owen　hadten　children　that　he？d　just　happened　to　forget

to　mention。Fuck！

Blair　scraped　her　chair　back　and　bolted　for　the　nurse？s　office　behind　the　cafeteria；　getting　there

just　in　time　to　spew　chocolate　cake　all　over　Nurse　O？Donnell？s　hand…hooked　farmhouse　rug。　It

wasn？t　pretty；　but　it　was　the　quickest　way　to　get　sent　home　sick　from　school。
