n learns who he really loves

Central Park was filled with girls dressed in denim short shorts and white tube tops and boys in long shorts and no shirts. The pigeons cooed in the trees as the soft summer breeze blew at their feathers and at the girl's hair. And the smell of cigarett smoke and cooked hot dogs blew in from the street.

Yet even though all the guys in the park were incredibly hot and sexy, only one of them stood out for all the girls. He had golden brown wavy hair and emerald green eyes that always sparkled. His chest and arms were so muscular and tanned that he couldn't help leaving his shirt off and was only dressed in tan khakis. He had the best smile and even brushed his hair out of his eyes in the way only a handsome man can. Every girl wanted him. Every girl needed him.

But sorry ladies, he was taken.

And suprisingly, it wasn't Blair, his on-and-off girlfriend, but it was someone his parents hooked him up with. Her name was Angel and yeah, she was gorgeous. But not in a model way, but more like a school girl way. She had long sandy brown hair with golden blond streaks and light brown eyes. She was a senior, like him, and had a nice tan and chest. All the guys would love to be with her.

Nate grinned to himself as he sat down on the edge of a rusty old green bench. He was lucky to have Angel because she was beautiful. And smart too. She wasn't a gossiper, really, but she did occassionally gossip. And she was online alot. Also, she went to Constance Billard and hung around with Blair and Serena. They loved her like a friend. And Blair didn't care because she had a date tonight.

Nate twirled his lacrosse stick on his knees as he waited for Jeremy Scott Tomkinson, one of his best friends, to arrive. They were supposed to play lax for a bit and then head back to his place to pack their stuff. Nate smiled. One week away in Conneticut would be awesome, especially since all their plans were surfing. And even though he couldn't bring Angel, he still thought it would be awesome.

"Yo, Nate!"Nate lifted his emerald eyes to see Jeremy sprinting over to him. He smiled up at Jermy and stood up, lifting the stick over his head as he threw the ball to Jeremy.

"So how's Angel?"Jeremy asked as he ducked down to catch the ball before it hit the ground. He tossed it back to Nate, who expertly caught it above his head and threw it back.

"She's good. I'm still bummed out that she can't come though. Your lucky that your girl can come," Nate said, referring to Jeremy's newest girlfriend, 17 year old Leslie Burkins.

"Yeah, well, I guess so."Jeremy chucked the ball hard to Nate."But she wanted to bring her friend."He shrugged."I guess it's ok right?"

Nate laughed and caught the ball, twirling the stick above his head and flinging the ball out. "Dude, that sucks. You won't get any alone time with her,"he said.

Jeremy grinded his teeth together and caught the ball, sitting down on the ground and twirling the stick behind his back."Well, yeah, I guess not. Maybe her friend won't even come."

Nate sat down across from him and nodded."Maybe." Then, Nate felt his cellphone vibrate in his back pocket. He reached for it and grabbed it, seeing Blair written on the screen. He pressed talk and held the phone to his ear.

"Hey,"he said cooly. Even though Blair and him broke up, they still remained friends."You okay?"
"Fuck no,"she growled. Nate heard her stamp her bare feet on a wooden floor. Then she whispered."I'm stuck in Barney's with a woman handing me thousands of clothes. Help me!"

Nate laughed."Okay, okay. You want me to come?"he smirked.

"Damn straight,"she said and hung up. Nate laughed and put the phone in his pocket, standing up."Blair's got a problem. Go to your place and I'll be there in about 20 minutes."

Jeremy nodded and stood up, walking off to his house as Nate grabbed a pale yellow button down and left it open. He ran down to Barney's, ducking traffic along the way.

When he arrived, he opened the door and walked in, looking around until he saw Blair. She was standing by a woman dressed in a diagonal-cut black skirt and pale yellow tube top that made her boobs look even bigger. Her long dark hair was chopped at the ends and hun down her back. She looked amazingly beautiful and he knew he wanted her, but he had Angel. And she was getting a boyfriend after her date tonight.

Nate walked up to Blair and smiled. She turned her head and ran up to him, flinging herself in his arms."Oh my god thank you!"she said.

Nate laughed and draped an arm lazily around her shoulders, just like when they were dating. He walked up to the woman with her.

"Excuse me,"he said. The woman was young with curly red hair and green eyes, pale freckled skin and dressed in a simple pants suit. Her eyes went wide when she saw Nate.

"I was wondering if you could help my friend over there. He seems to be having troubles."Nate pointed to Chuck Bass, the cocky St. Jude's graduate who was fingering through a rack of pale violet button up shirts. The woman ran up to Chuck and Nate and Blair laughed as they watched her pile clothes in his arms.

"Okay, so, how can I help you?"he said smiling. Blair raced over to the dressing room and came back with a long strapless and diagonal cut dress and a knee-length black pinstripe skirt with a pink ribbon belt and a pink one-strap tank top.

"What would look better to dinner at Lorine's and then to a classy dance club?"Blair asked, holding up the outfits to herself. Nate observed Blair in each outfit and then shook his head."I have to see you in them. It works better."He smiled at her and followed her hips as she walked into the changing room. Nate sat down in a chair infront of it and watching her tanned feet on the ground, watching her slip down her skirt and drop her top to the floor. He dug his nails into the arms of the chair. Focus on Angel, he thought.

Blair came out first in the skirt and top. Nate raised his eyebrows. She looked incredibly sexy and her legs stood out in the flared skirt. She crosses her arms over her chest self conciously and smacked her lips together. Nate had the urge to dive at her and kiss her lips hungrily but fought the temptation.

"Well?"she said. Nate gave her the once over."That looks good. But let me see the dress too,"he said. Blair went back in and Nate dug his nails deeper in as he watched the skirt and shirt drop to the floor. Then, his eyes grew wide as he saw her step out slowly from the changing room. That was the best outfit he had ever seen her in. The dress showed off her sexy tanned thigh at the cut slit in the side and her legs and ankles showed out from beneath it. Her body looked so curvy in the dress and he knew that was amazing. But the other outfit wasn't as sexy but it made her look good. He wanted her to wear that one and save that one for if they ever got back together.

"The skirt and shirt is probably more suitable. Not as classy but just classy enough,"he said. Blair smiled and nodded, walking back in and getting changed into her original outfit, coming out and buying both. Nate hooked his arm through hers as they walked out and laughed as Nate joked around. But in his head, he sighed. He really missed her. The way she smiled and the way she gave him kisses and presents for no reason. Before, it had annoyed him. But now, he couldn't live without them. He needed Blair back. But how?

His mind snapped. He had to make her date go horribly bad. And only one person could help him: Serena. She probably wouldn't but he needed her help more then ever now. She could help but then again maybe she wouldn't.

Nate closed his eyes in deep thought. Please, Serena. Help him now.

"Okay, I better head home now."Blair stood up and kissed Nate sweetly on the cheek. "Thanks for the help. I'll see you later,"she sid and ran inside her house. Maybe it was just where his eyes were looking, but I swear he was checking out her butt as she went in.
