Hi! This is my first story, so please review and be nice please. I've only seen like two episodes of Gossip Girl and once I found out that Taylor Momsen was leaving I didn't watch any others because I really only liked her character and Nate. So this is taking place after Nate saves her from Agnes and Max, they kiss and this story is the morning after. Hope you like it

Oh, and I made a few minor changes. And characters a little O.O.C. Enjoy.

I woke up the next day feeling great. Nate saved I from a bad scene, I new it was bad but she was too stubborn to admit it. After a year of crushing on him we finally kissed. It was amazing; he's like my prince charming. Nate's lips were so soft and the look in his eyes made me feel so loved. After the kiss he walked me home neither Rufus or Dan were there so Nate gave me a kiss on the cheek and a peck in the lips then said good night. I seriously felt like I was on cloud nine. Suddenly a feeling of dread washed through me.

I didn't think of the morning after.

It's gonna be totally awkward at dinner and on the way to school. Thank God for Dan he could be used as a buffer. Even though I knew I shouldn't be smiling, I still am. I still feel like I'm on air, like nothing could ruin this feeling. Even though by the time I get to school Blair and Serena will probably ruin it, I don't care. Hate to sound like a child, but every time when I see them I'll think 'I know something you don't know'.

I put on my uniform and did my makeup, a little darker and a little heavier. Oh well, I feel edgier and rebellious today, for some reason my skirt seems shorter and my top seems sluttier. I adjusted my bangs and walked out of my room with just a little more swagger and attitude. I love feeling this way. Rufus, Dan, and Nate were sitting at the table eating waffles. Yummy.

"Wow Jen, put a shirt on, will ya?" Dan said with a sarcastic tone and sipped his coffee.

"Your brothers right, you need to cover up." Rufus had a gentler tone.

"This is what a normally wear." I said back rolling my eyes and grabbed a plate.

"No really, you're looking a little slutty today." Dan replied.

"I do not!" I have to admit that hurt a little, but I still felt good.

"Listen to your brother Jenny." Rufus said while reading the newspaper.

"What do you think Nate? Do I look good or should I go change." I knew I was putting him on the spot but I couldn't help it; he hasn't looked at me yet. Nate's eyes got a little wider and he hesitated a bit.

"I think you look fine, but I think you missed a button." He replied, trying to please both my family and me. I rolled my eyes a little and did one more button.

"There ya go." Rufus said and playfully shock my shoulder.

The rest of breakfast was spent with polite chitchat and small talk. On our way to school Dan asked, "Nate, you were awfully quiet during breakfast, how come?"

That question took Nate by surprise, you could tell from his expression. "Oh, um, I'm just tired." Damn, that was a good cop out.

"That was a good opening, big turn out, you left early. Where'd you go?" Why was Dan so questionative today? Oh crap, what would happen if he found out me and Nate kissed.

"I wanted to leave early because I didn't feel good. Nate took care of me last night, wasn't that nice of him?" I wanted Nate to say out loud what we did, just not in front of Dan.

"Oh really?" Dan looked surprised by the fact that his friend would help his sister.

"Yeah, I thought it would be nice. A little thank you for letting me crash at your house." Nate said and smiled at me, then Dan and back at me. I couldn't help but smile back, probably with googlely eyes but too bad.

Dan shot a Nate a weird look like, 'Why are you smiling so weird and brightly at my sister?' Nate composed himself and looked straight ahead.

My morning classes went by quickly with me day dreaming of Nate and paying attention the teacher. I haven't seen Serena or Blair at all today, so that made me feel even better.

"I'm just saying that a pair means two, so why do we say 'a pair of pants' when were talking about one, not two items." Eric asked enthusiastically.

"You'd sound stupid if you say pant, like 'hey mom I need you to wash my pant' or 'I can't find my new pant, have you seen them?'" Hopefully that was a good enough answer because Eric will go on and on, and Nate just walked up to our table.

"Hey Jenny, can I talk to you for a minute?" He looked shy and vulnerable, how cute is that?

"Sure, be right back." I said to Eric and smiled at Nate. I got up and Nate led me a somewhat secluded area, like he didn't want anyone to see us.

"About last night-" Nate began.

"I swear if you say it was a mistake I will slap you." I cut him off, my tone was playful but I was serious.

"No, I'm not gonna say that," Nate smiled and chuckled "I was gonna say that I liked it, and I was wondering if you wanted to go to the movies tonight?" He flashed me an amazing smile and I'm surprised that I didn't melt into a puddle right there.

"I guess. I'm not doing anything anyway." Again my tone was playful.

"I'd say 'pick you up at eight' but we kind of live together now so, be ready at eight."

"Alrighty." I said smiling.

"Oh, and I thought you looked great this morning." Nate gave me his beautiful smirk witched cause me to look like a tomato. He chuckled and looked around then gave me a small kiss.

"See ya tonight." Nate said then began to walk away.

"See ya later." I replied then walked back to Eric grinning like an idiot.

"What's got you so happy?" He asked

"The most amazing thing just happened to me."

So, What'd ya think? Review please? Be honest and nice, criticism is wanted but try to keep it clean.
