want　you　two　to　sit　there　look　and　pretty。　Think　you　can　handle　it？

See　you　Tuesday。

KM

honesty　is　totally　overrated

？So；why　can？t　you　e　over？？　Blair　couldn？t　keep　the　irritation　out　of　her　voice。　She　was

annoyed。　Actually；　she　was　more　than　just　annoyed？she　was　totally　fucking　pissed。　At　Nate；　and　at

pretty　much　everyone　else？especiallyher　stupid；　traitorous；　moving…to…L。A。；　dysfunctionalmess　of

a　family。

No；　please；　tell　us　how　you　really　feel。

She　sprawled　out　on　her　stepbrother　Aaron？s　old　bed；　rubbing　her　legs　against　the　all…natural；

organic；　puke　green　hemp　forter　cover　he？d　bought　at　some　hippie　supply　store　last　winter。

Even　though　Aaron　had　moved　out　of　the　room　ages　ago？he？d　been　on　a　road　trip　all　summer

doing　God　knows　what；　leaving　his　bedroom　to　Blair；　since　hers　had　been　turned　into　Yale？s

nursery？it　still　smelled　of　boy　sweat　and　Mookie；　Aaron？s　disgusting　boxer　dog。　Then；　to　make

matters　worse；　Blair？s　cat；　Kitty　Minky；　had　decided　to　move　in　and　mark　her　territory？spraying

everything　until　the　whole　room　reeked　of　cat　pee；　wet　dog；　and　the　herbal　cigarettes　Aaron　was

always　smoking。　Blair　loved　her　baby　sister；　but　really；　did　she　have　to　get　displaced　from　her　own

beautiful　bedroom　and　into　this　shithole？

？There？s　um；　somestuff　I　have　to　get　done。　It；　like；　can？t　really　wait；？　Nate　mumbled。　Blair　could

always　tell　when　he　was　lying？he　sounded　even　more　inprehensible　than　usual。　She　picked　at

the　rough　cloth　of　the　forter　with　her　French…manicured　fingernails。　Blair　loved　surprises；　but

somehow　she　didn？t　think　Nate　was　hiding　anything　fun。

？Well；　I？ll　just　e　over　there　then。？　She　rolled　over　onto　her　back　and　held　a　strand　of　shining

chestnut…colored　hair　in　front　of　her　face；　mentally　reminding　herself　to　book　an　appointment　at

Warren　Trii？she　desperately　needed　a　trim。　The　tips　were　bleached　and　parched　from　all　the

sun　and　salt　water　from　when　she　was　at　sea。

Poor　thing。

？No；？　Nate　answered　quickly；　？I　mean；　uh；　you　can？t　e　over　here。？Excusez…moi？　They　just

spent　a　month　together　on　a　boat；　totally　in　love；　and　now　they？d　been　home　for　twenty…four　hours

and　he　didn？t　want　to　see　her？　She　sat　up　and　impatiently　switched　the　phone　from　one　ear　to

another。　She　was　probably　going　to　get　brain　cancer　from　talking　on　her　cell　so　much。　Then　Nate

would　be　sorry。

He？s　probably　sorrynow。

？I　mean；？　he　stammered；　？my　bedroom？s　being　repainted　and　the　fumes　are　killer。？　Blair

narrowed　her　eyes　and　remained　silent。　That　was　about　the　lamest　excuse　she？d　ever　heard。

？I　didn？t　even　know　it　was　scheduled　to　be　done　until　I　got　home　last　night；？　Nate　offered

weakly。　？Really。？
