Gossip girl here your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite. And you'll never guess who was just spotted in Grand Central. Annaleigh McPherson. I almost didn't even recognize her. I wonder how S and B are going to handle their childhood friend back in town. I hear she always had a thing for the playboy king wonder how he will handle her new appearance. I guess only time can tell. Who am I? That's one secret I'll never tell. You know you love me. XOXO Gossip Girl.
My phone had just beeped with this message from Gossip Girl. I had just gotten back and it was already news. Though I had to admit I had the same question she did. How would Serena and Blair feel about the fact that I was back? I had just taken a limo up to the Palace Hotel where I would be staying till I could find a nice apartment in the Upper East Side. My phone started to buzz with my mothers name popping up.
"Hey mom." I answered "Just about to call just made it to the hotel."
"I'm glad to hear that but I am really calling to tell you Serena just called and asked for your number. I gave it to her." Great I hadn't even settled in and Serena knew my number. Who knows it could be a good thing. "Second I hired you a maid she will start tomorrow afternoon. Her name is Sylivet Monae I told her to have an ID so just let? Someone know before tomorrow so they know to let her up. Also if you need an assistant for your work let me know and I will send you over the resumes that came in. And I wired some money into you personal account. If you need more let me or daddy know and we'll get you the amount you need."
"Thanks mom." I said. Then I remembered that everything was already set in the hotel. That mom had everything put together for me. I walked into the hotel and was greeted immediately.
"Good afternoon Ms. McPherson." A woman in a navy suit and white shirt said to me. "I am Angela Bennett. I am the manager of this hotel."
"Nice to meet you Mrs. Bennett." I said then had to stifle a yawn behind my hand.
"Oh your tired let me show you to your sweet." The lady then took me to the floor right under the penthouse. "You have the whole right side for your sweet." She said when we walked onto the floor with only two doors off of it. When I walked in I could see that my mom actually kept my in mind when she styled it. "Here is your key." She handed me the key and a paper with a bunch of numbers. "Here are the service numbers and my personal cell phone is at the bottom if you need anything at all." I smiled and pulled at twenty out of my purse and handed it to her.
"Thank you. I will need for you to let a Sylivet Monae in tomorrow. She is my maid but please check ID." I said looking at her.
"No problem Ms. McPherson." The lady turned and left and I looked at the sweet. When you first walked in you walked into a short hallway that lead to a living room. Off of the living room on the right was a kitchen, bathroom, and a dining room. And on the left was my bedroom and it had a second bathroom. Also there was a little smaller of a room that mom had decorated into a hang out room. There was also a guest bedroom. I walked into my room and saw that mom had all of my stuff already unpacked. I quickly took off my heels and fell into the bed. A second later my phone buzzed I looked to see it was S calling.
"Hello." I answered.
"Anna how dare you come back to the Upper East Side and not tell me and B. We missed you!" Serena said and I could hear the smile in her voice.
"Sorry S." I answered.
"Don't apologize A just say you will have dinner with me and B tonight." Serena said and I couldn't say no.
"When?" I asked.
"In two hours. At the Geisha House." Serena said. She knew I would come.
"Who all will be there?" I asked wondering if it would be just us.
"Me, B, Nate, My Beau Dan, B's guy Carter, andchuck." She said the last name really quick hoping I wouldn't catch it I guess.
"Chuck?" I asked. I couldn't go. I had crushed on Chuck since we were kids but he always shot me down. "S I don't know."
"Please A?" I was helpless against Serena. I wanted to see her so bad.
"Fine. I'll be there." I said wondering what I was going to wear.
"Where are you staying?" S asked.
"The Palace Hotel." I said.
"Me too. Mom is having the townhouse redone since the one next to us is vacant and we are staying in the penthouse to the Palace." She squealed out.
"Well I am one floor down if you want to come get ready here." I said.
"I think I will do that." She said and I could hear her smile. "Oh and since B and I have escorts we think you should have one too. Nate volunteered if you're ok with that."
"That's fine." Nate had been one of my best friends while I was here. Life when I was here before hadn't been easy for me.
"Ok I'll be over in 30 minutes." Serena told me.
"Ok I am going to shower. If I am not out by then call my cell and I will come let you in." I told her knowing that sometimes I lingered in the shower. She said ok and hung up and I grabbed some underwear and a robe deciding that I would have Serena help me figure out what to wear. I took a quick shower where I washed and shaved. I was out with enough time to dry off and put on my underwear. I looked in the mirror and started freaking out about seeing Chuck again. I looked in the mirror and saw a completely different girl then who I used to be. I was not the girl that was over weight with braces, glasses, and acne anymore. I had grown out of that fast. I lost the baby fat when I hit my growth spurt and now stood 5'8" and 130 pounds. At 15 I had gotten contacts and the acne cleared up. Then on my sixteenth birthday the braces came off and I got Lasik surgery. I had also grown boobs and an ass in the process of time. My auburn hair and gone from limp to full and wavy and now was at my shoulders and my eyes were a light green that drew most of my ex's in. Chuck couldn't see me as that same girl anymore or could he? A minute later I heard a knock at the door and went and saw Serena looking amazing as ever standing in front of me.
"OMG A you look awesome!" She shrieked hugging me. I hugged her back.
"You too!" I said not lying. Serena was still about an inch shorter then me, with a slender build, long blonde hair, and blue eyes to die for. "Help me find something to wear?" I asked and she nodded I escorted her back to my room and opened my closet. Serena started sifting through stuff right away. Before she picked out the one dress I hadn't thought about but now seemed perfect. It was a short purple dress. It had a goddess kind of look about it with the one sleeve and the empire waist that flowed. I nodded to Serena and she handed it to me. I quickly put it on and it fit perfectly.
"It looks great." Serena said and a minute later there was another knock at my door. "That's my stuff." She opened my door to Chuck holding her stuff. "Why do you have my stuff?"
"It was delivered upstairs by mistake." He said. Thankfully I was hidden by the door so he couldn't see me.
"Well then thanks for bringing it down. See you tonight." Serena tried to shut the door but Chuck held it open.
"Cant I say hi to Anna?" He asked and she shook her head.
"Tonight right now she is in her room getting ready and I am sure she doesn't want to see you after how you were when we were little." Serena said and closed the door the rest of the way.
"Thanks." I said looking at her. She smiled and went back to my room where she slipped into her red dress it looked amazing on her. "So should I do black tights and my black boots?"
"That would look awesome!" She said pulling out her black strappy Jimmy Choo's. I quickly put on my items and blow dried my hair. Then I let Serena do my make up. She gave me a smoky eye and a pale lip. When I looked in the mirror I felt beautiful.
"Thanks for the help Serena. Kind of wanted to look great tonight as an F you to Chuck." I said and I knew that I still had a crush on him and Serena could tell.
"I can't condone dating him he has done some bad things but A if you wanted you could probably have him now." Serena said looking at me. "Damn you could probably have Nate too though I believe he would be a better choice."
"Well for now I am happy just seeing everyone again." I looked at the clock and realized we had to be at the Geisha house in 30 minutes. "We should get going." I said and Serena nodded.
"Oh and as a surpriseā¦" She said when we got out. Then I saw it a Limo with everyone she mentioned beside it.
"A!" Blair screamed running over to me. I quickly hugged her. "You look so different."
"Its amazing what growing up can do." I said smiling. Then I saw them standing together and my heart started beating really fast. They started walking over once they realized I was looking at them.
"Anna its great to see you." Nate said giving me a hug. "So I hear you accepted my offer to be your escort." I smiled and nodded to him. "Good because I would be disappointed if someone else got to do it." I could tell he was flirting and from the smiles and S and B's faces they could tell too.
"Hello Annaleigh." Chuck said pulling my attention to him.
"Hello Chuck." I said with a fake smile plastered on my face. He walked up to me and pulled me into a hug something Chuck never did.
"I'm jealous. I want to be your escort." He said loud enough for everyone to hear. It sent chills down my spine and I knew that the famous playboy side of him was out and that pissed me off.
"Oh you had your chance. In fact you had many of them." I said pulling away from him and taking Nate's hand and getting into the limo.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED SO FAR!
Just a note I am looking for a BETA if anyone can help.
