"Dorota, what is this?" Blair growled lowly.
Dorota knew from the sound of Blair's voice that she was angry. Blair was a formidable force when she wasn't angry. But when she became angry, she became unstoppable.
"It's Miss Serena." Dorota whispered.
"And why is she the top of the best dressed New Yorkers?" asked Blair rubbing her temples.
"I honestly don't know, Miss Blair."
Blair threw the newspaper as far as she could and a little scream escaped her.
"I can't believe they think Serena is the best dressed New Yorker. I take care to dress impeccably when I go out and Serena just throws whatever on and she wins?"
Dorota edged slowly out of the room and went to find a phone. Maybe Mr. Dan would know what to do for Miss Blair?

"Hello, this is Dan." Dan said into his cell.
"Mr. Dan, I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning. But I couldn't think of anyone else to call." Dorota said quietly.
"Don't worry about it. I was already awake. What can I do for you, Dorota?" he asked picking up his coffee cup and taking a long drink.
"Miss Blair is in one of her moods and I was wondering if you could calm her down?"
Dan put down his coffee cup and looked at his watch. He didn't have anything pressing to do and it was always a pleasure to see Blair.
"Sure, I'll be right over."

"What are you doing here, Humphrey?" Blair asked throwing shoes out of her closet. She couldn't find the exact one she wanted to wear.
"I've come to take you out." He said.
"I already had plans, Humphrey." Blair said standing up and looking at a black pump.
"Yeah, well cancel them. I'm taking you on a tour of my favorite places."
Blair stopped and looked at him quizzically before she placed her hand over her mouth and started to laugh heartily.
"Oh please. I'm going shopping." She said
"There are stores on the tour." He said running his hand through his hair.
"Fine, let me find my other pump." She said returning to her closet.

"A bookstore? You brought me to a bookstore?" Blair asked incredulously
"Yup, it's one of my favorite places." He said taking her hand and suddenly placing a kiss on it.
Blair slipped her hand away, but she had to admit, it was nice. Humphrey was always the perfect gentlemen.
"There's a section, I think you may like." He said leading her to the style section.
He saw her eyes light up. He had a feeling Blair would like these books.
"Dorota told me about Serena getting first place on the best dressed list. So I thought I'd bring you here for some style tips. Oh and I'd like you to take a look at the anger management section." He said.
Blair whirled around and put her hands on her hips.
"I do not have an anger management problem, Humphrey." She said glaring at him.
"I think you do Blair."
"I'm not going to argue with you and prove your point," she said running a finger over the glossy book. "I'm going to go calmly over to the section and look at the books."
Blair marched past him and Dan chuckled to himself. That was easier than he thought. But he had a feeling he hadn't seen the end of angry Blair.
