Yes. In this chapter, Gossip Girl exists and almost everyone's obsessed with it (just like in the show).

Danny, Sam, and Tucker sat down outside at their usual table, but today there happened to be a bunch of freshmen girls sitting at the table next to them. The three couldn't help but listen in on what they were saying.
"So, did you hear that someone saw Serena and Blair at the Indianapolis airport last night?" the one with short blonde hair asked.
"How did you hear?" the tiny brunette asked quietly.
"It was on Gossip Girl this morning," the blonde replied, then taking a bite of her energy bar.
"What are they doing in Indiana? Seriously, New York's a lot more fun than here," the redhead added.
"I don't know, but seriously. Wouldn't it be cool if they came here?" the blonde asked again.
The rest of the girls nodded in agreement.
"I can't believe those girls even listen to that woman," Sam announced, picking at her salad.
"Well, it gives them something to do," Danny replied.
"I mean, come on, why listen to a twenty-year-old (A/N: I don't really know how old she is; this is a guesstimate) that no one has ever seen before? She then slips into parties unnoticed, and sees every little private, and intimate detail about everyone!"
"You're wasting a lot of energy on someone who may or may not exist," Tucker pointed out. Sam hit him on the backside of his head. "Ow!" he yelped. "What the hell was that for?"
"I have my reasons."
"Ugh…" Tucker groaned, slamming his head on the table and then leaning his arms down.
"So you're telling us that you're judging a website, and you've never even read it?" Danny eyed his best friend.
Sam groaned and crossed her arms. "What is the point of this conversation? Is it really that important to you guys?"
Danny shrugged. "Not really. I just thought that you were kind of into those kinds of websites."
"Danny," she sighed, "that site is for people who are so stuck up that they can't function on their own, and people who are bored with their own lives so they have to read about the wonderful lives of others."
"Whatever," he finally said.
Sam picked up her tray and started to leave. "I'm not really that hungry anymore."

Later that afternoon, Sam sat up against a tree, reading her copy of Eclipse. She looked up as the normally warm air became icy cold. It then hit her. She rolled her eyes and groaned. "Danny, come out here. I know you're there."
The town's most famous half-ghost appeared out of thin air.
"What do you want?" she growled.
"I wanted to apologize for earlier. I shouldn't have acted the way I did."
Sam put a bookmark in the novel and closed it. She put it aside and stood up. "I know you were just being your normal idiotic, yet loveable self.," she smiled.
"You think?"
"I know."
"Still friends?"
"We never stopped." The two leaned in for a hug. "Um, quick question."
"Shoot." He replied, backing out of the hug.
"If I said that I actually do sometimes, on occasion, read Gossip Girl, would you call me a hypocrite?"
"Some might, but I wouldn't."
"Seriously?"
"I mean, everyone has a guilty pleasure," he shrugged.
"It's not a 'pleasure', Danny," Sam laughed a little. "I just happen to glance at it every once in a while, y'know… just to see what's up."
"And to see what they're saying about Amity Park's most famous half-ghost?" Danny smirked, raising one eyebrow.
"Maybe…" she singsonged.
The two laughed and then hugged again. When they still had their arms around each other, Sam looked up at her best friend. She stood up on her toes and leaned in to kiss him. Even in total shock, Danny surrendered to the kiss. Sam wrapped her arms around his neck during the embrace. That moment, everything was perfect.
"Spotted: Ghost Boy and the goth girl sneaking a little PDA in the park. A new romance blooming or just a one-time fling? Let's just hope this little love story ends without a horrible cliché. You know you love me. X.O.X.O. Gossip Girl."

Alright, I'll be hiding in my emo corner now… If this was kinda suckish, I understand. I just had to write it! Bye-bye for now…
