Chapter One:
Remember our deal, Jenny.
Mess up, be gone, for good.
-B
I sighed after reading the note from Blair Waldorf and sank back into the comforting down of my feathery pillows. Feeling relaxed was something that I never had time for.
I heard a light knock on the door, startled, I sat up.
"Hey, Jenny, just letting you know, I'm going to be gone for the day," Rufus Humphrey, my dad, smiled, his hand still on the door knob.
"Oh, okay, um, I'll be here," I said wearily.
"Okay, kiddo. You know the number for the gallery if you need anything," Rufus smiled and shut her door.
I sighed and rolled off her bed. "Ow!" I groaned when I landed on my cell phone. "Better call Blair." I rolled my eyes and hit speed dial 6 on my phone. Blair finally picked up after five rings.
"Hello?" She said sharply.
"Blair, you don't need to keep leaving me notes. I know about the deal, like I said, I promise I will follow through with it," I gritted my teeth.
Blair exhaled. "Good to hear, little J," She smirked, not that I could see it.
"Okay," I felt a little relieved that I wouldn't be constantly receiving notes.
"Let's go get some lunch," Blair said lightly, "I hear a great little place just opened downtown." Blair practically sang.
"Um, okay," I remembered that I told Rufus I would be home all day. "I'll be at your house in 30." I said after realizing Rufus would never even know.
"Bye, Jenny," Blair said, and snapped her phone shut.
I pressed end and threw my phone back on my bed.
"What to wear to lunch with Blair Waldorf..." I mumbled to myself.
I ran up the steps to the Waldorf's huge apartment.
"Jenny," Blair smiled, "Great to see you," She grabbed my hand and pulled me out the door.
"Um, so where are we going exactly?" I asked, curiously.
"Well, I thought about it," Blair started, "Would it be more fun to go over to Nate's?" She grinned. Nate and Blair had been dating for a while. I had never met him, just heard many things about the ever popular Nate Archibald.
"S-sure," I looked down at the ground.
"Perfect,' Blair waved for a taxi and gracefully hopped in.
"Where to miss?" The driver asked politely.
"The Archibald's." Blair rolled her eyes, as if there was anyone who didn't know where they lived.
The driver nodded his head and drove off.
"I'm sure Nate will have at least one of his friends there," Blair looked at me.
"Uh," I squinted, "Great."
"You know, like Chuck, or someone," Blair sighed.
Oh," I replied. I remembered Chuck, the one who tried to make a move on me at the Kiss On The Lips party just about a week ago.
Blair quickly opened the door when the Taxi stopped. I followed and walked quickly to catch up with Blair.
"Nate!" Blair called once we were in side his elegant loft.
"Blair?" Nate questioned.
"Were you expecting someone else?" Blair knitted her eye brows and Nate came out from around the corner.
"No, I wasn't expecting anyone at all." He chuckled and kissed Blair on the cheek.
"Oh, and this is Jenny," Blair looked back at me, "Jenny Humphrey."
"Hi," I smiled. He stuck out his hand.
"Hey, Jenny, nice to meet you," He smiled an amazing smile as I shook his hand.
"Yeah," I bit my lip.
"So, um, why are you all here?" Nate looked kind of nervous. I heard something crash from another room.
"What was that?" Blair ignored his question and peeked around Nate.
"N-nothing," Nate winced.
"Hey, Nate, have anymore Dr. Pep-" Serena Van der Woodsen stepped out from what I assumed was the kitchen. She stopped mid sentence and widened her eyes when she saw Blair and I Standing in the foyer.
"What the hell is she doing here?" Blair demanded, her eyes narrowing and face turning red.
"She's here with-." Nate was cut off.
"Yeah, Nate where the so-." Dan Humphrey, my older brother stepped out beside Serena. "Well, this is sufficiently awkward..." Dan mumbled.
"Why are they here?" Blair demanded again.
"We were just hanging out," Nate spat.
"But, why?" Blair practically yelled.
"Nate, you shouldn't have to explain yourself," Serena glided toward us. "We were just watching some movies, you know, having fun." Serena purred.
"Fabulous, then don't let me intrude," Blair screamed and ran out of the room. "Jenny!" She growled a few seconds later.
"I, uh, better go, I guess," I looked at Nate, Serena and my brother."
"No, Jenny, wait," The three of them grabbed my arm at the same time.
"Just let Blair cool off, if she wants to come back, she will. But, most likely she won't. Trust me, if you go with her, you'll just get to hear her ranting on and on about how horrible her life is," Serena said in her sultry voice, and rolled her eyes at the thought of Blair.
"I'll take you home when we leave," Dan suggested. "Dad would probably want you to stay with me anyway." He shrugged.
"Okay," I said meekly, following them into the kitchen.
"Back to what I was asking, Dr. Pepper?" Serena giggled. I honestly don't know why Blair hated her so much, I thought they used to be best friends, what happened? I wondered.
"Let's go finish the movie," Nate said handing each of us a soda.
"Sure," We all shrugged and followed him into his room. There was a huge king size bed, a dresser, and a giant plasma screen TV.
"Wow..." I inhaled.
Serena giggled. "Big TV?" She bit her lip and hit play on the screen.
"And bed, and..." My voice trailed off.
"Come, sit," Nate patted a spot on the bed next to him. I smiled and crawled up onto the tall bed.
"What are we watching?" I asked.
"Dirty Dancing," Nate smirked.
"My favorite movie, ever!" Serena jumped onto the bed between Nate and Dan.
"Mine too," I smiled. She smiled back.
We sat in silence for a little while, just watching the movie. I leaned back against the pillows.
"Ew, credits," Serena wrinkled her perfect little nose and grabbed a pillow from behind her head. She slammed it into the side of Dan's head.
"Hey!" He laughed.
"Pillow fight!" Serena screamed and stood up on the bed. Nate, Dan, and I followed, each picking up a pillow and hitting one another.
I giggled. "Ouch!"
"Oh, sorry!" Nate looked at me and smiled.
I pretended I was hurt. "No, I mean...I think...ow," I breathed.
"Are you okay?" He bent down and looked me in the eyes.
"Yeah, I think just..." And then I whacked him as hard as I could with the pillow. "Just needed to get you back!" I laughed. Serena burst out in a fit of giggles.
"Did you just see Nate's face?" She cried.
Dan smashed a pillow on each side of Serena's head.
"It was hilarious!" Her voice was muffled.
"Thanks, Serena," Nate rolled his eyes and whacked her legs with a pillow.
"Hey, now!" Serena and Dan said at the same time.
Nate laughed. "How about, Jenny and I, versus you two?" He arched his eyebrows.
"Yay!" Serena yelled hit me in the stomach. Nate and I double teamed her, he hit her back while I hit her butt.
"Ah! You guys!" Serena giggled. I turned and hit Dan in the head.
He looked confused. "Whoops!" I laughed. He and Serena bot hit me in the back as Nate stuffed two pillows in Dan and Serena's faces.
I giggled and fell back on the bed. Serena did the same.
"It's hard to believe your Blair's friend," She said quietly.
I sighed. " I don't know if friend is the right term," I knitted my eye brows.
"Oh? Well, whatever, you hang out with her, don't you?" She asked.
"More like, she has me run errands for her, and stuff," I said shyly and turned away from Serena, already knowing her reaction.
She huffed. "Well, Jenny," She placed her hand on my shoulder, "If you want a real friend, someone to hang out with, talk with, do stuff with and not for, I'm always here," She grinned.
"Wow, thanks Serena!" I grinned back. "I really would like a real friend, I haven't found many, well, any since I moved here," I shrugged.
"Well, apparently all the girls at Constance Billiard hate me, so, I really don't have any either," She smiled. "Except for him," She pointed at Nate, "But he's so not a girl!" She laughed.
I giggled. Even in the little time I spent with Serena, I could tell we'd be great friends. I smiled...and then I remembered the 'deal' with Blair. My smiled instantly disappeared, and my eyes widened.
"Jenny, what's wrong?" Dan asked.
"Uh..." I looked at Serena, then back to Dan, then up at Nate. "Serena, can I talk to you for a second, alone," I bit my lip.
"Yeah, sure, come on," She smiled and jumped off the bed, I followed her into the next room, the guest room.
"Okay, this is going to sound completely stupid," I exhaled.
"Whatever it is, you can tell me," She smiled and placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder.
"Um, well, before I knew you, Blair told me what I had to do to get into their 'group.' She told me all about how everyone hated you, but you still felt confident in who you were." I gulped. "She told me if I could find a way to embarrass you in front of the whole school, and the boys, I would be considered their friend." I looked down, ashamed.
She grunted. "That is so Blair!" She huffed. "Look, Jenny, she hates me, and has made everyone hate me, I'm only confident because it's all I have left. I don't blame you, I blame her. Thats just the way Blair Waldorf works." She looked at me.
"Yes, but-." I started.
"No, Jenny, it's not your fault!" She said.
"But, I told her I would do it!" I blurted.
"That's because you didn't know better, you didn't know me. Blair can be very threatening, especially to someone new. Jenny, it's not your fault. If you still want to be a part of that group, do it, I don't care, I will never hate you." Serena said assuringly. Thats when I realized. I didn't want to be the next Blair Waldorf, I didn't want to publicly humiliate Serena, I didn't want to be Blair's little slave.
"No," I growled. "There is no way I am going along with Blair, I'm not going to embarrass you in front of everyone, I'm not going to be her slave." I insisted.
"You know, if you don't, you might be just as hated by them as I am," She looked sad.
"I don't care. When I moved here, I told myself I wasn't going to be that girl, the one who follows and just stands back like a shy little helpless person!" I gasped.
"You and I have a lot in common, Jenny, I know we can be great friends." She beamed. I smiled back, knowing that's exactly how I felt.
"Great then, I'll tell Blair the next chance I get that the deals off." I nodded and stood up.
"Thanks, Jenny," She whispered, "For telling me that, for everything." She smiled again and hugged me.
"Thanks for listening, and not hating me!" I felt so relieved. I didn't have to plot and scheme for Blair anymore, I didn't have to feel like if I didn't do exactly what Blair said, I wouldn't have friends. Now I have Serena, and a free life!
Okay, so first chapter, i know it wasn't long, but it's just the first one. (:
