As Blair Waldorf entered the Annual Archibald Charity Ball, all eyes fell on her. She blushed as she walked past people & they just kept staring at her. It's not that she didn't think herself to be beautiful because that, she truly was. She was blessed with perfect chocolate brown curls, though her hair was in an elegant up do; & she had doe brown eyes that made your heart melt.
It was then she spotted her best friend, Serena Archibald, talking to a handsome young man. She quietly made her way to them. Blair tapped Serena lightly on the shoulder and said "Sorry if I'm interrupting any-" but Serena cut her off. "Oh my gosh! Blair honey! I'm so glad you could come. And don't worry you weren't interrupting anything, I was just talking to my very stubborn and hard-headed older brother" she said as she pointed to the ridiculously gorgeous man who was apparently her brother, and whom she had turned her back to so that she could speak to her best friend.
Blair felt her breathing stop as she looked over Serena's brother. He had dazzling light blue eyes and he had dirty blond hair which fell over his eyes a bit. "It's a pleasure" he said in a husky voice. "Same here" she smiled. "Blair darling; there's someone you should meet" Ms. Waldorf said as she went over to her daughter and guided her towards some people. "Sorry" Blair mouthed to Serena & her brother. "Who's she?" Serena's brother asked. "Her name's Blair Waldorf, she's my best friend, she's 17 years old; her family's middle class, & her mother owns a dress shop. Her father passed away when she was 10" Serena said turning to face her brother, who couldn't keep his eyes off Blair. "Hello? Earth to Nate" Serena said waving her hands in front of her brother. "Oh sorry" he said embarrassed. "You like her, don't you?" she asked grinning. "Well, she is very attractive-"he began. "Then go talk to her you fool" she said pushing her brother on the chest. "Fine, I'm going" he laughed.
Blair was so close to falling asleep. Her mother had taken her away from her best friend, to talk to some 30 year old guys. They were all very attractive, but what her mother mostly cared about; they were crazy rich. They all looked at her as if they were buying cattle. It was disgusting. All of a sudden their conversation died down as they looked behind her. She saw the glimpse of jealousy in some of their eyes. She decided to turn around, and when she did, she came face to face with none other than Serena's brother.
"May I have this dance?" he asked as he extended out his hand. "You may" she smiled as she put her small hands on his; and he led her to the dance floor. "May I introduce myself?" he asked as they began dancing. Blair nodded. "Well, my name's Nathaniel Archibald, I am 22 years old, I'm one of the heirs to the Archibald fortune, I have a 17 year old sister named Serena; & that's about it" he said smiling. "Well it's a pleasure to meet you Nathaniel" she smiled back at him. "Trust me, the pleasure's all mine; and please call me Nate" he said as he twirled her around. Blair felt her porcelain skin turn red at Nate's comment.
"Well Nate, isn't it time I introduce myself?" she asked with a raised eyebrow. "I'm all ears" he grinned. "To start off, my name's Blair Cornelia Waldorf, but call me Blair. I'm 17 years old, I love to read, I'm a very quiet person around people I don't know, I live with my mother & two sisters in a two story house. Their names are Bella, who's 15, & Taylor who's 12. My mother owns a dress shop called Lily's. And before you ask: no, I don't have a father; he died of pneumonia when I was 10. And that's all you need to know" she finished saying just as the song ended.
"Well, I must be pretty special then" he smirked as he led her to an empty table. "Excuse me?" she asked, clearly confused. "You said, and I quote 'I'm a very quiet person around people I don't know'; & you just told me almost everything about you, so I must be pretty damn special" he grinned as they sat down on two velvet covered chairs. "First of all, I didn't tell you everything about me; my life is still being written. And second off all, don't flatter yourself" she laughed. "Well first of all, I didn't say everything; I said almost everything. And second of all, I think I'm gonna kiss you" he finished his tone now serious.
"B-But, what about everyone else; what will they say?" she stuttered as he moved his face closer to hers, to the point where their noses touched. "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" he whispered as he latched his lips onto hers, and kissed her. This innocent kiss begins a tale that is romantic, sad, passionate, joyous ; and it changed all of their lives forever.
