Spotted Serena and Antoinette van der woodsen sneaking back to the upper

east side,seems spain couldn't entertain the new mommy and aunt very long,

but dont worry my fellow friends Darien van der built wasn't a far cry from

his beloved Serena's side,but i also hear Chuck Bass kept a certain Van Der

Woodsen mommy company while she slipped away from her short commings with papa

J,i wonder where Rini slipped off too,but im sure she'll be popping up soon!

you know you love me ,

Gossip Girl

"Can you belive this crap?"Serena said sipping her late'

"we can't take a damn vacation without ending up in headlines"she said

looking towards her sister Antoinette who was smiling at a picture of her daughter

"my poor nice she's making headlines already"Serena smiled to the beautiful little

girl who was enchanted with her mom in the picture.

"It's always been that way Sere and Elizabeth well, atleast she cant read those posts"

Antoinette was a fairly beautiful brunette with eyes the color of emralds her

deep dark hair ran to the middle of her slinder back complementing her

proclien skin a trait her and her sisters all shared,eauty something else they all had

in common,but by looking to her and Serena you wouldn't tell right off the back they were sisters,

yes both of them had fairly long hair but serena was blonde her eyes the color of the sky as deep

as the sea. thier age diffrence could be why,Antoinette was twenty-three while Serena was

twenty-one.

both of them were diffrent in so many ways and yet they ended right back togehter after

high school into the same college,both growing home sick and transfering to nyu,but most say Antoinette

came back to escape the touture of seeing the papa of her little girl after what ever went down in spain

but try getting her to tell you what happened and you won't have much luck.

"have you talked to Darien"

"no"Serena said looking away

"ever since the argument on the way back he hasnt texted me or called"she confessed

"have you tried texting him first?"

nodding Serena sighed looking down at her little pick cell

"yeah but no reply ,do you think he hates me"

"i hardly think a little fight over you coming home a week late will make him hate you,

maybe he just doesnt know how to say he's sorry for over reacting"

strugging Serena got up

"maybe,Are we still going shopping"she said changing the subject it rubbing her the wrong

way a little a hint Antoinette caught.

"Yeah lets go" She said so they could head down to the deparment stores

reaching coach Anotinette smiled at the sight of Darien who was holding Serena's favorite

flowers white roses.

"your mom said you guys would be out here i feel like such a jerk"he said his eyes begging her

for forgivness

blushing Serena didnt know what to say so she just hugged him ,mouthing i'll be in here Antoinette

went into the store leaving the love birds alone.

"i'm so sorry too Dare it's just Antoinette was going through so much and i didnt want to leave her

alone and-"she started but he cut her off

"i dont wanna talk about it anymore all that matters is that your back okay"he said kissing her softly

as a male voice interupted them

"Is Antoinette with you"

looking past Darien Serena almost chocked

"oh no"she sighed looking the man in the eyes who hurt and abandoned her pregnant sister,well

she wasnt pregnant anymore but that wasnt the point.

"She doesnt want to see you Jameson"Serena said as Darien stood at her side sliently

"Let her tell me that,where is she"

looking to the store Serena sighed

"Why are you doing this haven't you caused enough trouble"she said as he left for the door

to coach

"This isn't good"she said rushing to her sister's side.

Antoinette was standing at a display of purses,she was starting to think she'd be better off at

Saks the store boring her just a little,turning to leave she caught a glimspe of Serena and Darien

but they weren't alone. she felt her body loose its motor skills,she couldn't speak,

she couldn't move,the one time she should just walk away her legs wouldn't budge.

"Anne can we talk"

"We don't have anything to talk about"she said turning to leave but he grabbed her arm

"come on Anne she's my kid too"

"Maybe you should've thought about that over four months ago"She snapped pulling away from

him.

"remeber when i told you shopping makes her emotional"Serena wispered to Darien who shook his

head.

"Thats anger sweetie"

"still an emotion"She replyed swiftly as Antoinette approached them

"I'm going to Saks Are you coming"she asked trying to mask her anger for all she was worth.

"yeah of course"Serena nodded looking to Darien

"She needs me right now"

"i understand"he said kissing her briefly before she hurried after Antoinette

"how dare he even say those words to me"she thought getting into the car that was waiting for them

Serena slient on the other side taking a chance to speak.

"Anne do you want to talk?"she asked chooseing her words carefully

"im not angry with you sere its just im disgusted with him"she said leaning back

"she's my kid too,what does it matter now after all this time why choose now to aknowldge my daughter"

"perhaps he's had an epihany"

"well he should have stayed where he was and dealt with the guilt"

laughing Serena sighed sitting back a bit

"now isnt that a bit harsh shouldn't you want him here"

"i did at first but then i obtained common sense and regained my integrity"she stated nonchalant

arousing laughter from Serena as they arrived at the was a glourious three story house with

marble steps built on special white bricks,two large lions sat at the two large marble windows.

"i thought you were going to Saks"Serena asked getting out of the car

"i need to pull myself togehter before mom returns with Elizabeth"she answered approaching the

marble them open she made her way to the kitchen her heels clicking on the ceramic

all the way there.

"Anne relax don't let him get to you,he's not worth it"

"that's the thing i know he isn't but still some how he gets under my skin"

"he's your only daughter's father"she said plopping on a stool feeding herself a grape

"something i wish i could change"she said feeling the conor vibrate

"your phone not mine"Serena said answering her blank face with a mouth full of grapes.

looking down she read a plus sign,most likely a guy she didn't save for some reason

"hey"she smile fasley leaving the strugged and texted Darien. Elizabeth

was comming home she knew no doubt her sister would spend the rest of the night alone

with her daughter and that alone would make her feel all the better. sending the text

she went up to her was a lavish suit in the house with a deep pink stone colored bed

as large as the drive had two paintings on the wall one of just her hung over the bed

and another of her,her parents,Antoinette,Rini and their brother in her vanity

she ran her figures through her long blonde hair that reached the center of her back,letting

out a breathe she walked into her connecting bath stoping at the porclien tub turning the sliver handle

letting the water run,removing her clothes she put her hair up in a bun stepping into the water.

soon her body lost all tension,leaning back she let the hot water sting her center slinding her

hand towards the sensation moaning Darien's name inbeween breathes,nothing comparing to thoughts

she'd cooked up she was at bliss but nothing compared to what she knew she would be getting tonight.

close to cloud nine her message notifaction went off inturrupting her play time.

It was from Darien smiling she opened the message it reading that he couldnt wait to see her.

looking to her clock it was ten minutes to seven.

"mom would be back any minute"she thought getting out of the tub heading to her walk-in closet.

picking out a simple black tank top and a tight fiting pair of jeans she nodded to herself that it

would have to do it wouldnt be staying on long getting a pair of black flats as well she

reurned to her vanity going through the draws picking out the perfect black set of lingere she knew

Darien would some simple make-up and dressing Serena decended the stairs finding

Antoinette

in the living room texting what seemed like a letter.

"im heading off to Darien's are you going to be okay"

nodding Anotinette looked up from the black device smiling softly

"yeah hun Elizabeth will be back any moment now and after i get her settled im going to head to bed

myself"

giving Anotinette a hug Serena headed out,Antoinette looked down at her cell the send button tempting

her soul,placing her tumb she pushed the little red button.
