Chapter Four

Jenny woke up the next morning blissfully happy, her body practically beaming with delight. After the passionate kiss last night Nate had called for a cab, kissing her goodbye and promising to call her the next morning. She smiled at the thought of receiving a call from him and pulled her phone off the nightstand to check her messages.

Jen, are you alone? I'm coming over, we need to talk. Nate xx

Oh-oh. That didn't sound good. She looked over at the clock which read 11.06, and she was glad. Dan would either be out with Serena or studying in the local library, her dad on the other hand would be down at the art gallery. Nate's text was only sent ten minutes ago, so she guessed he was on his way over. Flinging her covers back, Jenny racked her brain for a decent outfit; finally deciding on a black and white chequered dress, she applied her makeup quickly and ran her fingers through her shoulder-length hair.

"Jenny?" Nate's voice came from just outside her bedroom door, and she realised he must have let himself in like he always did. She froze in shock – now that he was here, she had no idea what to say or do!

"Uh, yeah. Come on in." She said, frowning at how lame she sounded and praying that her room was not a complete mess. Nate smiled at her as he moved in and shut the door, making his way towards her bed where he sat awkwardly. Jenny stood still, frozen in front of him.

"Listen Jenny, about last night..." He started, yet he found that he couldn't finish; he wanted to say it was a mistake and that it should never happen again. But he knew it wasn't true – kissing Jenny had been the happiest moment of his life. "God, you have no idea what you do to me." He mumbled, running his hands through his hair. He saw her merely standing in front of him, and letting his resolve slip; he walked towards her and pressed his lips to hers once more.

Jenny moaned at the feeling of his lips upon hers, her body begging for more as his hands roamed her body. He stumbled backwards, tugging her with him as he fell upon the bed. They laughed as they kissed, Nate moving them so he lay atop her gently, his lips never leaving hers. Her body shuddered with nerves and delight; this was what she had dreamt about, even if she did deny it to herself. His hand moved to her thigh expertly, caressing the soft skin as he moved his hand higher, her moans edging him on. Just looking at her beneath him made him hot, especially when she hooked her leg behind his.

"Jenny? Jen, I'm back with Serena and we have breakfast..." Dan's voice interrupted as he opened her bedroom door, freezing at the sight before him. Jenny lay on her bed with none other than Nate Archibald wrapped in her legs, his hand placed dangerously high on her thigh with her own hands wrapped in his hair.

"Hey Dan, is Jenny up? Whoa!" Serena exclaimed, walking into the room and seeing the entwined couple. At the sight of Serena and Dan in the doorway they jumped off the bed, attempting to readjust themselves and recover their dignity.

"Dan..." Jenny pleaded, seeing the anger in her brother's eyes. With a groan he pointed towards the door, motioning for Nate to leave.

"Out. Now." Dan muttered, his blood boiling. How could Nate, one of his friends, even think about doing this with his sister?

"Dan please, just let me explain!" Jenny exclaimed, stepping forwards and trying to reason with her brother. But of course he was having none of it, and even Serena looked disappointed in Jenny.

"Get out now Archibald. NOW." Dan yelled, grabbing Nate by his collar and pulling him to the door. With a push he threw Nate out the door and slammed it in his face, ignoring Jenny's pleads to hear her.

"Jenny, how could you? With Nate? He's Blair's boyfriend for God's sake." Serena exclaimed, turning to face the beautiful blonde girl before her. Hurt crossed her features as she stared at Serena in utter shock.

"Well, that didn't stop you did it." Jenny said bitterly, ignoring the shock and hurt that crossed Serena's face. Dan was by her side immediately, utterly disgusted at his sister's behaviour.

"Apologise, now Jenny." He said, wrapping his arm around Serena's waist as a signal that he was supporting her. And leaving Jenny to fight for herself.

"No. And I'm leaving." She mumbled, pushing past them both as she followed Nate's lead and left the Humphrey apartment. She ran down the stairs, hoping to catch up with him and apologise for her brother's rash behaviour.

"Nate! Nate, wait up!" She yelled, pushing past people as she saw him at the edge of the block. "Nate!" She yelled, thankful when he paused and turned to her, a small smile spreading across his features. "Listen, I'm so sorry about Dan-"

"Jenny, it's okay; Dan's behaviour only made me realise I'm dating the wrong girl. I'm going to break up with Blair." He said, raising his hand to stroke her cheek softly as she smiled at what he was saying. "All we have to do is give it a couple of weeks and then we can officially be together." He smiled at the last part, thankful to Dan that he had woken up to his true feelings for Jenny. With a small laugh from both of them Nate lent down and pressed his lips to hers softly, marvelling at the feeling of her lips on his.

A small gasp escaped from Vanessa, who stood nearby unnoticed. Seeing Nate kissing Jenny practically broke her heart; she still had feelings for him, even after he broke up with her at the Bass wedding. As her tears turned to bitter anger she flipped out her phone and snapped a picture of the two; normally she wouldn't have done such a thing, yet her anger powered her as she hit the send button.

Looks like Little J finally got her man, and there's going to be an all out war over the Archibald Prince. Watch out Little J, B is on the warpath.

Blair fumed as she read the caption, tears prickling in her eyes as she saw the picture of Nate and Jenny locked in a passionate embrace. She had entrusted Jenny to keep an eye on Nate, and it turned out that she was Nate's mystery woman! Gritting her teeth she turned to her friends shocked faces; they had all seen the picture too, and were shocked at how Jenny could betray them like this.

"Jenny Humphrey is going down." Blair declared, snapping her phone shut as she smiled to herself. Indeed, a war was beginning.
