Good morning , Upper Eastsiders! Gossip Girl here. I hope you enjoyed your summer. Because the time has come to drop those summer plans because school's back and the action is as hot as we left it. Yes sailing around the South of France with your latest beau can get a tad boring without my favourite UES filling my day with their drama filled lives. According to my very reliable sources the drama seems to be in full swing.
It seems that both B and C were missing from the scene could it be that B finally stepped down off her pedestal and went after her man.
Spotted Loney boy and S looking sharing more than just a table at favourite caffine hut.
Oh and whats this a couple old familar faces haunting the streets of the Upper East Side. Spotted Alexander and Althea Fallows strolling through Central park. Has Upper East Sides own form of Royalty returned to us for good or does it have to do with the sudden M.I.A of Constance Billard's first ever Queen B.
Does S know of the return of her first love. Will we see the return of our own Upper East Side Posh and Becks? How does lonely boy fit into this.
So come on don't be shy, tell me know who's sleeping with who and who's doing what. Welcome home UES I'm here and I've got lots to share.
XOXO, Gossip Girl
Dropping back onto the soft leather couch Althea Demata- Fallows let out an amused chuckle, her phone sliding out of her grasp onto the couch beside her. This was what she had been waiting for since arriving in New York a month and a half ago, somebody to alert the Upper East Siders of the Demata-Fallows Twins return.
Two months ago both Althea and Alexander were making plans to fly to Greece on their father's private jet to visit their mother's family as soon as school let out but then the phone call came through; their grandmother Beatrice had collapsed and taken to the hospital with a weaken heart. For about two weeks it was a bit touch and go until Grandma Bebe's doctor announced that she would need to be on bed rest until deemed fit and their father Michael 'suggested' that they all go and stay with their grandma in her penthouse till she got back on her feet.
When Althea heard the news she wasn't severely disapointed because she did love New York when she was younger but Alexander was a different story; he was spitting mad letting out curse words in both English and Italian.
The Fallows twins were half Italian and half American, their mother is retired supermodel Cassandra Demata and the only daughter and youngest child of Shipping extradonaire Milo Demata. The Demata family owns a good portion of the shipping docks controlling what was imported and exported to and from Italy. Eventually Milo's playboy twin sons and older brothers of Cassandra Logan and Lucus began taking intrests in other business ventures and soon enough the Demata family owned a sucessful cruise line thanks to Lucus and a string of hotels from Sicily to Switzerland thanks to Logan and thus making the Demata family one of the most prestegious and sucessful familes Italy ever come out of Italy.
Michael Fallows, the twins father is the only child of socialite Beatrice -Bebe- Riggs and Maximus Fallows founder and CEO of Fallows and Sparks Inc. Michael at the prime age of 21 graduated from Harvard with a law degree and business degree ready to take on New York only for his father to suddenly die of a heart attack bought on by stress of his business partner Greg Sparks trying to swindle the company out from underneath him. After his father's death Michael's sweet warm nature turned cold and he turned ruthless, blaiming Greg for his father's death Michael pulled the rug out from underneath him buying out his shares and after doing a little digging there was not much Greg could say after Michael's findings. With Greg out the way by the time he was 23 Michael single handedly turned Million dollar company Fallows and Sparks Inc into billion dollar company Fallows Inc. and himself into the Forbes list of top 5 riches men. At 24 he met and married Cassandra Demata in her home country of Italy then bought her back to New York where America witnessed one of the most lavish weddings to date and at 26 he became a proud father too Alexander Maximus Demata-Fallows and Althea Sofia Demata-Fallows, his prince and his princess both heirs to the Fallows fortune with their own net worth from their first birthday.
While Alexander Demata-Fallows was the apple of his father's eye, his sister was highly ranked the same in their mother's eye. To the Demata-Fallows clan the two could do no wrong though they seem to get themselves into sticky sittations they always get themselves out. Their cunning and wit made them who they are but so did their kindness and unwavering faith in the human mind, together they made Blair and Chuck look like puppies.
Growing up in New York the twins were held in high regard, getting snapped by the paps whenever they were out with their parents or parent but that didn't cloud over their up bringing in the Demata-Fallows household. Cassandra raised her twins with a iron fist praising them when they did good and punishing them when they did bad and installing the rights and wrongs basically they had a normal childhood well as normal as one could get with parents like theirs.
When elementary school came around the twins were seperated into different classes as requested by their parents; they didn't want the twins to just depend on each other Althea became instant friends with a headband wearing Blair Waldolf and golden haired Serena while Alexander grew to tolerate smug Charles Bass and 'nice' Nathaniel Archibald. The six remained friends through elementary school, middle school and right up until high school even though relationships bloomed between Nate and Blair and Alexander and Serena. Like Blair and Nate many people believed that Alexander and Serena would be the ultimate couple but this is the Upper East Side nothing never works like that.
The break-up happened and if you asked Alexander back then if he saw it coming he would have said yes. Serena and Blair had gained a new friend by the name of Georgiana Sparks sparking the anger of the Demata-Fallows twins for the offspring of the offspring of the man who caused their grandfather's death. Both Serena an Alexander could be seen arguing over Georgiana their relationship fizzing out until Alex decided enough was enough and ended things with Serena for good that was the day Upper East Side lost their King and Queen it was over the would be epic love was over. A month later the Demata-Fallows clan left New York for California where Michael had got them into a private school in the hills.
The family's suprise return to their home town wasn't a secret but wasn't really acknowledged, sure their father had one to many business lunches with Bart Bass and their mother was in meetings upon meetings with investors who have an intrest in her lingerie and formal gowns line and wanting to take it public. The twins however knowing that their stay in New York would be a long one decided to stay out the public eye going from point A to Point B with no distractions.
Hearing her phone beeping, Blair Eleanor Waldolf lazily lifted her head flipping her phone open, reading the message that covered her screen before looking over at well her other half. Chuck Bass sat with his head back and eyes closed, trailing his finger tips up and down her tanned calves. They were currently in the air on Chuck's private jet on their way back from Monaco after a good two months with only each other as company, least to say that they indulged in each other often never straying to far from their hotel.
"Who's it from?"
"Gossip girl's back." Chuck lifted his head, one eyebrow higher than the other. "Yes she's back and she's bringing news that I'm sure you'll want to know."
Chuck's head fell back "Well don't just sit there dish Waldolf."
"Well Serena's back to slumming, we've been M.I.A and the Demata-Fallows twins are back." She whispered the last part knowing full well Chuck would hear her and he did his head snapped back up, his eyes narrow.
"Alexander Fallows." He murmured to himself a slow smug smile formed on his face. There was not alot in this world Chuck would ever admit too but the return of his childhood friend bought out a strange happiness feeling in him. "Well well looks like UES is about to get more intresting."
Blair scowled at the smug son-of-a-gun chewing on her bottom lip thinking, her phone hadn't gone off yet so maybe Serena doesn't know. Punching in 1 then send she held her phone up to her ear waiting for her best friend's voice to come through.
"Hey B, what's up?"
"Hey S...are you alright?" She asked carefully fully aware of Chuck's dark eyes on her.
"Why wouldn't I be. Everything is fine are you and Bass on your way back now?"
"Err yes S are you sure your ok." Blair had to confirm her suspicions that Serena hadn't seen the blog regarding...him.
"Yes Blair I'm fine apart from missing my best friend. Are you ok did my idiot of a step-brother do something to piss you off?"
"No Serena I'm just wondering that's all." She said in a fake cheery voice scowling when Chuck began to chuckle, signalling to the hovering stewardess to bring him his glass of Scotch.
Serena's voice suddenly lost its cheeriness and the background noise faded into silence "Blair what's the matter?"
"S-" She hesistated chewing on her bottom lip "Alex is back." There was silence on the other end a loud defeaning silence. Blair wanting privacy swung her legs down from Chuck's lap and stood up walking to the back of the jet dropping into the leather chair that matches the interior design Blair tucked her legs underneath her "S?"
"H-how do you know he's back?" Blair scolwed hating the way her strong friend was automatically turned into the insecure girl she was whenever Alexander's name is mentioned.
"Gossip girl."
"...oh."
"Have you see him."
"No I didn't even know he was back. His dad has been doing alot of business with Bart but he's always doing business with Bass he's never mentioned the family back. God B what am I gonna do."
"Nothing your gonna do nothing because Alexander Demata-Fallows is nothing your Serena Van Der Woodsen ok. You guys relationship was the greatest thing to ever happen to him, he lost out and you've moved on right...Humphrey."
"I know B but its Alexander thee Alexander. Did it say how long he'd been here?"
"No S I mean he can't have been here that long and not gone to have seen you." hearing Serena sigh heavily on the other end Blair felt a pang of sadness for her friend. "Look me and Bass will be home by tonight and tomorrow we'll go shopping Barney's is having a sale. Don't think about him he's nothing S you can do better stick with Humphrey."
"Do I detect a likeness for Dan." Serena teased, her tone immediatly let Blair know that she was somewhat over her mild panic attack.
"Urgh no but anything is better than Fallows even Cabbage Patch." Chuck smirked crouching down infront of Blair his fingertips running over her stockings clad legs, bending his head he pressed his lips against her knee slipping his hands underneath the hem of her dress feeling the suspenders. "We-we'll go shop-shopping when I get back." Blair breathed heavily letting her head fall back on the chair a low moan escaping her parted lips as Chuck's fingers unhooked her suspender belt from her stockings.
"Urgh B are you doing what I think your doing with Chuck no less?" Serena questioned in disgusted through the phone but Blair moaned in reply "Bye B."
Blair's phone slipped from her hand as Chuck's fingers began to do tread on forbidden territory.
"Bass."
"Hmm." He raised up hovering over her, his lips brushing hers and his scotch scented breath mingling with hers. Lifting his hand Chuck began to undo the buttons that adorned her Eleanor Waldolf original "What is it Waldolf."
Gripping the lapels of his suit jacket Blair pressed her lips against his before shoving him back and standing to her feet watching him stagger before gaining his footing. "This is one club I am not willing to join." Brushing past him Blair disapeared into the bathroom not before picking up her purse.
Picking up his glass of Scotch Chuck downed its contents pursing his lips in irratation 'damn that Waldolf'.
Staring at her reflection Blair took in her swollen mouth, her cheeks flushed and her eyes sparkling with lust a single thought passed those very lips 'damn that mother-chucker'.
