A young brunette girl stepped out of Bendel's and into the limo that was waiting for her. She was about 5'7 with long wavy curls and piercing blue eyes.
"Where to Miss Lizzie?" the driver asked
"1312 Madison Avenue." Lizzie replied
Lizzie stared out the window looking at what she had left behind. The driver pulled up at her destination. She grabbed her bags and thanked the driver. She made her way towards the front door of a building. Eleanor Waldorf Designs was written on the door. Lizzie walked in and made her way towards her mother's office. When she got there, she wasn't sure whether she should knock or not because their last conversation was far from pleasant.
-Flashback-
Lizzie stormed down the steps of the Waldorf Penthouse looking for her mother, she finally found her in the kitchen.
"How could you?" Lizzie asked
"How could I what?" Eleanor asked
"How could you give Jenny Humphrey the internship? You know how hard I worked for it." Lizzie replied
"Laurel felt that Jenny was the better designer." Eleanor responded
"Screw Laurel, this is your company, and I'm your daughter!" Lizzie exclaimed
"Darling, you're overreacting." Eleanor said
"I don't care!" Lizzie replied
"I did not teach you to act like this!" Eleanor exclaimed
"The only thing I learned from you is how to be a bitch." Lizzie said before storming off
-End of Flashback-
Finally, she decided to knock.
"Come in." she heard her mother say
"Hi Mom." Lizzie said
Eleanor looked up from her papers.
"Elizabeth, what are you doing here?" Eleanor asked
"I decided I was ready to come back home." Lizzie replied
"Oh." Eleanor said
Lizzie picked up a picture off the desk. It was of a short gray haired man.
"Who's this?" Lizzie asked
"Cyrus Rose." Eleanor replied
"Boyfriend?" Lizzie asked
"Actually, he's my husband." Eleanor said
"You're married? Were you going to tell me?" Lizzie asked
"I assumed that Blair would tell you." Eleanor replied
"You didn't want me there?" Lizzie asked
"Of course I wanted you there but it was a spur of the moment thing and I wouldn't have been able to fly you in." Eleanor said
"So that makes it okay?" Lizzie asked
"I figured that you would understand and forgive me in time." Eleanor replied
"You actually want me to agree with you." Lizzie said
"Don't you want me to be happy?" Eleanor asked
"Oh don't even go there Mother." Lizzie replied
"What's that supposed to mean?" Eleanor asked
"It means that you've always put you life, career, and needs before Blair and I. For some reason, I thought you may have changed." Lizzie replied, leaving before her mother even got a chance to respond.
