“Okay。　I　guess　I’ll　just　wait　for　her　here；　then；”　Jenny　said；　snagging

two　flutes　of　champagne　from　a　waiter’s　tray。　She　handed　one　to

Blair。　“Will　you　wait　with　me？”

Blair　took　the　champagne；　tilted　her　head　back；　and　poured　it　down

the　hatch。　The　sickly　sweet　fizziness　of　it　didn’t　exactly　jive　with　the

raw　fish　and　seaweed　she’d　just　eaten。　Blair　burped　queasily。

“I’ll　be　right　back；”　she　told　Jenny；　practically　running　for　the

powder　room。

Jenny　took　a　sip　of　her　champagne　and　gazed　up　at　the　crystal

chandelier　hanging　from　the　ceiling；　congratulating　herself　on

making　it　in　there。　This　was　exactly　what　she’d　always　wanted。　She

closed　her　eyes　and　finished　off　her　flute　of　champagne。　When　she

opened　her　eyes　again；　she　saw　stars；　but　still　no　Serena。

Another　waiter　walked　by　with　more　champagne；　and　Jenny　took

two　more　glasses。　She’d　drunk　a　little　beer　and　wine　at　home　with

her　dad；　but　she’d　never　had　champagne　before。　It　tasted

wonderful。

Careful；　it　doesn’t　taste　so　wonderful　when　you’re　on　your　knees　in

the　bathroom；　throwing　it　up。

Jenny　looked　around　for　Blair　again；　but　couldn’t　find　her。　The　party

was　so　crowded；　and　although　she　recognized　a　lot　of　faces；　there

was　no　one　she’d　actually　feel　fortable　going　up　and　talking　to。

But　Serena　would　be　there　soon；　she　had　to　be。

Jenny　walked　over　to　the　bottom　step　of　a　marble　staircase　and　sat

down。　She　could　see　everything　from　there；　including　the　door。　She

waited；　drinking　both　glasses　of　champagne　and　wishing　her　dress

wasn’t　so　tight。　It　was　starting　to　make　her　feel　nauseous。

“Well；　hello；”　a　deep　voice　said；　hovering　above　her。

Jenny　looked　up。　Her　eyes　settled　on　Chuck　Bass’s　aftershave…

mercial　face　and　she　sucked　in　her　breath。　He　was　the　best…

looking　boy　she’d　ever　seen；　and　he　was　looking　right　at　her。

“Aren’t　you　going　to　introduce　me？”　Chuck　said；　staring　at　Jenny’s

chest。

“To　who？”　Jenny　said；　frowning。
