AN: I don't own Gossip Girl, only my original characters. Hope you enjoy this one! Please Review!
It's the start of a new school year and it looks like it's been a busy summer. N is back and sporting a gorgeous tan from his summer playing in the Hamptons. Hope he didn't break too many hearts. B on the other hand spent her summer in Europe with her father; I bet this tease drove all the French boys wild. Speaking of boys, has anyone seen S? She's been missing in action since summer got started. And even C has been surprisingly hard to find, heard he was last spotted catching a jet to Brazil with none other than his childhood companion, L. I thought those two were feuding. I guess all will be revealed on Monday and personally, I can't wait. It's been a dull summer around the Upper East Side without our favorite troublemakers and heartbreakers.
You know you love me.
Xoxo,
Gossip Girl
Eleanor Waldorf's Memorial Day dinner was the last important social event of the summer. A fact that made Lita Nadalia want to both smile and cringe at the same time. It signaled the end of the best summer of her life but it also meant that she would be reunited with some of her best friends.
"Lita, we're leaving in ten minutes." Lucia Nadalia announced from the doorway of Lita's bedroom. At 45, Lucia, a former super model from Brazil, still drew envious stares wherever she went, including her daughter's bedrom. She walked with an air of grace and beauty that Lia knew she would never be able to master. "Is that what you're going to wear?"
Lita looked at her reflection in the mirror. She had inherited her curves from her mother as well as Lucia's thick curly hair, honey brown complexion and almond eyes but the two differed immensely in their sense of style. Lita was dressed in a loose fitting Marc Jacobs sun dress paired with ballet flats from Chanel; she thought it was a nice outfit. "What's wrong with this?"
Lucia walked over to her youngest daughter and spun her around slowly. "It does nothing for your figure."
"Mom, we're just going to dinner at Blair's."Lita shifted uncomfortably under her mother's gaze.
"Darling, you have such a nice body, it wouldn't hurt to show it a little more." Lucia went to the closet and started to look for something more suitable for her daughter to wear. "I don't know how I raised such a shy daughter."
They both laughed at this. Lucia's specialty had been the swimsuit and so she was perfectly comfortable walking around wearing next to nothing, a habit that Lita had never picked up on. "Most parents would be thrilled."
"Here, what about this one?" Lucia held up a short cocktail dress designed by Zac Posen. It was a vibrant shade of coral and would hug the voluptuous curves of Lita's body.
"Fine." Lita agreed, not wanting to argue with her mother any longer. "I'll wear it if it means you'll leave me alone."
"Thank you, Beleza." Lucia kissed her daughter's cheek and floated out of the room, yelling to her husband that it was time to leave.
Lita stared at the dress on her bed and couldn't help but wonder what Chuck would think of it. He was the other reason that Lita was anxious about the Waldorf party. She hadn't seen him since they'd come back from Brazil together and that was almost a week ago. She wondered if things would go back to being the same as they were when school had ended- with the two of them ignoring each other in icy silence. Sighing, Lita stepped into the new dress and ran to her closet to find a pair of heels. She'd find out soon enough.
