Blair Chapter 4
Blair stood from afar, watching Nate and Serena talk. She had finally felt secure again. Serena gone and she could finally have Nate to herself. Blair knew that Nate had feelings for her when they were freshmen, but then again who didn't fall in love with Serena van der Woodsen? She was tall, cool, blonde, approachable, and yet, utterly out of your league. Blair stood there feeling helpless. The control of her life was falling from her meticulously manicured fingernails. The truth was she envied Serena. But she would never admit to it, she was too proud.
Even though Blair was deeply hurt by Serena's departure, her life seemed to go her way. Nate drew closer to her and she became the It girl at her school. She had always been under Serena's shadow. Even though she was alone she had all of Constance within the palm of her hand. She couldn't move without being blogged about on gossip girl. She was life, the noise, and soul of her school. But now, now that Serena was back she saw her boyfriend fall under her spell. And she knew that everyone else would too. But why should they? She left them. Serena left her.
She couldn't forgive, until Serena actually felt sorry. Actually felt terrible for writing one lousy postcard to her best friend. It wasn't fair, but then again nothing about Serena was fair. She was always better. Always the superior. It made Blair red with anger just thinking about it. And now, now she was talking to Nate as if nothing had happened. As if she hadn't fallen off the face of the Earth.
Blair stepped forward. She wanted an apology. She wanted an answer. She wanted everything back she had lost, but maintain what she had. But something had to be lost. And Blair knew that her life without Serena, which was lonely and yet blissful was crashing to a halt. She was scared and frightened. She took an another step and gossip girl was blogging again if for only about Blair one last time.
