Okay, so here's chapter two :D

It's a little longer, and hopefully better than my first one!

I'm already starting to write the next chapter, so it'll be up very soon.

Enjoy! And please REVIEW! :D

Chapter two:

I woke up the next morning feeling better than ever. I smiled and looked up at my ceiling. All I had to do today was tell Blair Waldorf that I can't follow through with out little 'deal' or ruining Serena's life. I sighed. That was going to be a bigger task then I had planned.

"Jen?" Dan asked, peeking his head through my door.

"What's up, Dan?" I sat up in my bed.

"Serena called, she's coming over in a little while, she said she needed to talk to you about something." He said. "You weren't answering your phone when she called, I guessed you were asleep."

"Um, Serena's coming here? When?" I quickly stood up.

"In about 15 minutes, I think, something like that," He shrugged and shut my door.

Great, Serena was coming here to talk, I was still in my Hello Kitty pajamas, I had to call Blair, why is my day already so hectic?! I thought.

"Uhg," I grumbled and threw open my closet door. I grabbed a gold and black jumper dress and headed to the bathroom.

The minute I got out of the shower my phone rang.

"Hello?"

"It's Blair," She snarled. "Why didn't you come with me yesterday? Or answer any of my calls? Or texts, or respond to any of them?" She spat.

"Um, my brother made me stay there. My d-dad, um, called him and told him to find me anyways." I lied.

"Jenny, if you want to be a part of this world, you have to go along with the flow, okay? That means, responding to your calls!" She huffed.

"Sorry," I said shyly.

"Whatever, Jenny," Blair sighed.

"Listen, um, I need to talk to you, um, about that, uh, d-deal we had," I suddenly felt jittery and nervous.

"The deal we had? You mean the one in the works?" She said sharply. "Or, don't tell me you're going back on your word?" She gasped, acting sarcastic.

"Um, well, I just really don't think it's a good idea. Look, it's just not something I want to be a part of, okay?" My hands were shaking as I tried to brush my hair.

"Oh, so now you're Serena's friend?" She said her name like it was a dirty word.

"Blair, I'm not going to ruin someones life when she has never done anything to me!" I said loudly.

"Nothing to you? What about what she's done to me?" Blair growled. "That slut slept with my boyfriend! You expect me to ever forgive her for that?" She yelled.

"W-what?" It shocked me. Would Serena ever do that? It just didn't seem likely.

"Serena slept with Nate," She annunciated every word.

"I, I didn't k-know, I'm so s-sorry," My voice shook.

"That bitch can't be trusted, Jenny." She mumbled.

"Don't you think it's as much Nate's fault as it is Serena's?" I asked. "And you obviously forgave Nate."

"I will never forgive her! Okay? Never!" She snapped.

"Well, I'm never going to publicly embarrass her!" I practically screamed.

"Oh, you're done, Jenny. You hear me? DONE!" She shouted and hung up.

My whole body was trembling. I clicked the end button on my phone and rushed out of the room.

"Jenny?" I heard Serena's voice.

I spun around to see her coming through the door. "Oh, hey!" I smiled.

"What's wrong?" She asked, "I heard yelling."

"Um, I was on the phone with B-Blair." I stammered.

Her eyes widened. "I'm so sorry!" She was instantly standing beside me.

"S-sorry? You? For what?" I sounded confused.

"I'm the reason for all her yelling, you see, if I, if I um, never screwed things up between us, she wouldn't be yelling at you for not wanting to ruin my life..." She looked down.

"Serena...I know, about what you did..." I said. Her head snapped up.

"What?! How?! Who?" She looked panicked.

"Blair," We answered in unison.

She sighed. "That's why I came over. I wanted to tell you, you know, so that we can be friends without so many secrets." She half smiled.

"Aw, that's really nice, Serena," I smiled back. "But, don't blame yourself, I mean, it was my choice in the first place to agree to her stupid plan. And, it was my choice to tell her no." I said.

I heard my cell phone ring. "Um, hold on a sec," I said walking back to the bathroom to grab my phone.

"Hello?" I asked, sounding a little annoyed.

"Jenny? It's Nate,"

A shock wave sprang through my body. Why was Blair's boyfriend calling me? Did they break up? What's going on? So we talked yesterday, watched a movie together in his bed, so what?

"Jenny? You there?" He asked.

"W-what? Um, oh, yeah, I'm here, sorry," I stuttered.

He chuckled. "Hey, I was just wondering...Do you want to hang out? Maybe grab a bite to eat? Movie?" He sounded nervous. Nervous to ask me? What world did I wake up in? Because this is can't be real life.

"Um, s-sure! That sounds...fun! But, Serena's over right now, so maybe another time?" I suggested.

"Does your brother have plans today?" He asked

"Are you kidding?" I giggled. "Dan never has plans."

"HEY!" I heard Dan scream from his room. Serena laughed.

"Alright then, tell them to come along, we can all go." He chuckled.

"S-sounds great! Um, how about you meet us over at our place, we can go from there?" I asked.

"Cool. Be there soon," He said sweetly, and hung up.

"Who was that?" Serena giggled.

"Nate." I gasped.

"Uh-oh," Serena raised her eyebrows. "Looks like Blair has some competition after all." She grinned darkly.

"N-no, I mean, we're just friends." I'm sure I looked shocked.

"Jenny, Nate can never hang out with a girl as 'just friends'." She sighed and rolled her eyes. "That's how it happened with me. Even though, I know it was way wrong of me to do, but I really did love him." She said.

"I know," I sighed and paused. "But, now you guys hang out as friends." I added.

"Only because I forced him!" She laughed. "We had a long talk about it. We both didn't want to loose each other completely, so we sort of forced each other to be friends and only friends." She smiled.

"Aw, well you two must really love each other," I smiled back.

"We do," She sighed. "But only as friends."

"Who loves who?" Dan stumbled down the hall way to see Serena and I sitting on the living room couch.

"Hey!" Serena jumped up and hugged him. "I love you, and Jenny, and Nate!" She grinned. "But the last two only as friends." She bit her lip.

I giggled. "Nate's coming over, then we're all going to a movie, or lunch, something like that," I smiled and walked into the kitchen to get some water. "Anyone want something to drink?" I asked.

"I'll have a Coke," A smooth voice that I recognized, said from behind me.

I gasped. "Oh!" I turned around to see Nate standing behind me. "H-hi!" I smiled and handed him a Coke.

He laughed. "So, movie or lunch? Or both?" He shrugged. "Afterwards we can chill at my place."

"Let's all just move to Nate's place," Serena leaned her head back and smiled. "I mean, your parents are never home, your place is amazing, and we're free to do whatever, whenever!" Serena giggled.

"Oh, yes, let's all just live in my room!" He rolled his eyes and took a sip of his soda.

I laughed. "My dad might wonder where I am after, oh, I don't know, a day!"

"Jen, dad's oblivious." Dan chuckled.

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever, let's just go somewhere!"

"I vote, Nate's place, movie marathon, and Chinese food!" Serena squealed.

I shrugged. "Sounds good to me, I love Chinese!" I smiled and clapped my hands.

"Okay, okay. Let's go," Nate shook his head.

-

Serena and I followed Dan and Nate into Nate's room.

My phone rang the second I sat down comfortably on the bed beside Nate and Serena. I sighed. "Hello?" I asked, annoyed.

"You'll regret what you did. You'll wish you were never born, and I'll make sure of it. If I even see your face, you're done. Oh, you think life's so good? Well expect a sudden drastic change to your little fantasy, Jenny." The line went dead. I gulped.

"What's wrong?" Nate asked.

"Um, n-nothing..." I mumbled, he grabbed the phone from my hands.

"Who just called?" He asked looking at my phone.

"I-I don't know, I didn't recognize the number."

"That's Blair's apartment. What did she say to you?" He asked.

"T-that was Blair?" I gasped. I figured it was, I just didn't want to believe it. I strongly hoped it was someone else, anyone else. Because if anyone can ruin someones life, for good, it's Blair Waldorf.

"Jenny, what did she say?" Serena looked at me.

I relayed the call to them. Serena's eyes widened with shock. Dan cussed under his breath and mumbled threats. Nate dropped my phone and looked at me with an unsure expression.

Nate's heavy sigh broke the silence. "I know what she's talking about," He mumbled.

"What?" Serena, Dan, and I said in unison.

"I broke up with her this morning, right before I called you..." He looked down.

"WHAT?!" Serena and I shouted.

"Jeez! I didn't know I was putting Jenny's life in danger! I just, she isn't, we aren't." He struggled. "We just don't have much in common. She tries to control me. And, she blows up in my face every time I want to hang out with Serena!" He blurted.

"No, no, no." Serena shook her head quickly. "I completely see why you broke up with her. I'm saying, why didn't you tell me?!" She slapped his arm.

"S-sorry," He winced.

"Nate, you didn't put my actual life in danger. Trust me, it's just my social life." I rolled my eyes. Dan chuckled.

"Jen, what social life does she have to ruin?" He scoffed.

I glared at him. "Like you even know what a life is!" I rolled my eyes.

"Enough! Why is she taking this out on you?" Serena asked, looking confused.

"I-I don't know," I flopped back onto the pillows behind me.

"Seriously, like, what could have happened in the day we all hung out, to the next morning to make Blair blame the break up on yo-." Serena stopped. She smirked. "Oh, I know," She chuckled darkly, and rolled her eyes. "Blair thinks you broke up with her for Jenny, or because of Jenny," She sighed and looked at Nate.

He was speechless. "U-uh, a-are you s-sure that's the, um, reason?" He stammered.

"When have I ever been wrong about Blair?" Serena raised her eyebrows.

"Never," Nate responded.

I looked confused. Serena snorted. "Do I seriously have to spell this out for you?" She gaped. I nodded. "Blair didn't feel that you were a threat to her and Nate's relationship, so she dubbed you into her 'group.' She spied for a while, and realized you were no threat at all. She was sure Nate would never like you. I mean, she did this because she didn't want to have another friend like me." She sighed. "Then when you stayed after she left yesterday she must have gotten nervous. That's why you had tons and tons of voice mails, missed calls, and texts. She was worried that Nate had suddenly fallen for you or something." She rolled her eyes. "Then, when Nate called the next morning," She eyed Nate, he shrugged. "She figured it must have something to do with you." She concluded.

Nate grunted. "It was just the right time! I was going to do it anyways!" He insisted.

"Sure, sure. I see where she's coming from, I mean I would have thought that too. But, I never ever would have threatened someone!" She gasped.

"Blair overreacts. She'll get over it. She has to." Nate said, looking at me.

"Jenny, if she gives you any more trouble, you have to tell us, okay?" Dan looked at me.

"But, I mean, It's not like I told Nate to break up with her, so I still don't see how this involves me." I pressed on.

"Blair thinks Nate dumped her for you!" Serena blurted, yelling a little too loudly.

"W-w-w...WHAT?" I spat. "That's crazy! We just met! I mean, do you think she is seriously thinking he likes me more than her?" I coughed.

"Guys, come on, I'm sitting right here!" Nate begged.

"Sorry, Nate. But, yes, Jen, she seriously thinks that. I know Blair's mind better than anyone else. Guarantee it."Serena said.

I sighed. "Serena, I doubt Nate would dump Blair for me." I said blankly.

"I would..." Nate mumbled.

"What?" Serena and I asked.

He exhaled. "Nothing."

"Wait," I knitted my eyebrows. "Did you just said that you would?" I looked at him, puzzled.

"Would what?" Serena asked, taking a sip of water.

"Yeah..." Nate responded shyly.

"Why?" I asked, confused. Did he seriously just say he would dump Blair Waldorf, for me?! I think I'm going crazy.

"Why what?" Serena asked, impatient.

"You're nicer, funnier, more relaxed, and if I've realized this in one day, then that pretty much settled the fact that it was over between Blair and me." He said, looking straight at me.

"Oh!" Serena suddenly got it. "Jenny, you're way, way better than Blair. I see why he did it too." She practically sang, and nudged Nate's arm.

"Chinese food's on it's way!" Dan said happily when he entered the room. "Whoa, what's going on?" He asked, curiously, when he saw us sitting in a circle on the bed, silent.

"Um, nothing, don't worry about it," Serena said as she got up to hug him.

"Okay..." Dan shook his head and sat down.

"Let's watch a movie!" Serena grinned. "I know, The Notebook!" She squealed. Nate and I groaned. "Aw, come on, please, please, please!" She begged.

"Fine," Nate and I exchanged sympathetic glances.

"Yay!" She jumped up and hit play on the TV.

A few minutes later the doorbell rang. "It's the food, I'll go get it," I volunteered.

"Uh, I'll come with you," Nate scooted off the bed and followed me.

"Nate...?" I was nervous to ask my question.

"Yes?"

I sighed. "What's the real reason you broke up with Blair?"

"She's been too controlling. I can't even have one night to hang out with Chuck, or Serena and Dan without her getting mad at me and saying I don't spend enough time with her. She others for everything. Like what happened with Serena and I, she blamed it all on her, and I was just as much, if not more a part of it than she was! I just can't follow her, we have nothing in common." He looked down at the counter after setting the food down. "And, I want to meet new people. To be honest, when I met you, something just clicked, it was like, this is the kind of girl I want to date, to be serious with, not gossiping, controlling, uptight Blair Waldorf." He looked at me.

I couldn't speak. I couldn't breathe. He wanted to date someone like me? I shook my head furiously. "Nate, I-."

"No, this is the way it is, the way it should be." He placed his hand on mine. "The way I want it to be. She'll get over it. And if she says or does anything to you, I've got your back, Jenny." He reassured me.

"T-thanks, Nate," I smiled.

"I really do want to get to know you better Jenny. You seem, so...i don't even know how to put it. Held together, strong, like you can fight for yourself, you don't need to be Blair's follower."

"Well, I'm not anymore. I promised I wouldn't be that girl, and I'm keeping my promise." I said firmly.

"You're a good person, Jenny. If you ever need anything, a friend, someone to talk to, hang out with, you've got me." He smiled. I smiled back.

"Thanks," I said. My heart was beating overtime, I knew I shouldn't like Nate, let alone ever date him. Blair would kill me for good, and that I was sure of. But, something kept telling me that Nate wasn't going to back away, he said he wanted to date someone like me. And I've never met anyone else that was like me.

"Anytime," He stood up and pulled the food off the counter. "Let's take this to lovebirds," He chuckled and rolled his eyes. I giggled and followed him.

"Whoa! Sorry!" He quickly shut the door.

"What's wrong?" I asked. Then I realized they were probably making out. "Oh!" I said.

"I'm leaving the food by the door!" He called to them, not that they cared at the moment.

"So, at least we don't have to finish watching that movie," I laughed.

"That's a relief!" He smiled. We walked over to sit on the couch in the living room. He turned on the TV. Eventually it became background noise to our endless talking. We talked about everything, school, Blair, Serena, each other, what music we liked, movies, everything. I really felt like I could open up to him, be my self around him. But I was in no place to rush things.

The clock didn't rush us, it was at least four in the morning.

"Hah! You played with puppets when you were little?" I burst out laughing.

"Hey, hey! They weren't just puppets, they were my friends!" He tried to be serious, but erupted into laughter.

"No, no, your right, that's cute! Aw, Nate used to have puppet friends!" I giggled.

"Well, what did you do when you were little?" He challenged.

"Played Barbie with my brother," I grinned, and then laughed.

"You and Dan played Barbie, together?" He burst out in fits of laughter.

"Hey! That's so not as bad as puppets!" We were in heaps, laughing together. I had to lean on his shoulder just to keep myself up.

"No, you're right. My puppets were pretty embarrassing," He said seriously.

"Sure, sure..." I said wearily, half asleep, leaning on him for support or an attempt to stay awake.
