Spotted K and B storming the streets together. What the two of them were doing together is beyond me, but there was definitely more going on than him just carrying her bags. I'd keep an eye on them if I were you N.

XOXO, Gossip Girl

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"Nate?" Kennedy said in surprise as he got to his door.

"We need to talk."

"If its about Blair…"

"It's not about that… It's about us."

"What about us?" Kennedy asked as he unlocked his door.

"I like Serena… but I like Blair… and then there's you," Nate said after Kennedy closed the door.

"This is not funny."

"I'm not joking… Did you show Blair the picture?"

"It was you?"

"No, but I did put it back in your locker after I saw what was in it… And then I got one of my own," Nate said putting an envelope in Kennedy's hand. "I can't say I understand what you've gone through man, but I'll try."

"They're back…" Kennedy began muttering to himself.

"Who?"

"They're back… I thought it was a coincidence… I need to get away Nate."

"You're not making sense."

"I saw someone get killed. Happy now?"

"Kennedy, man you need to sit down."

"Nate I can't do this…"

"You don't have to." Nate moved in close to Kennedy.

"As much as I want to, this is wrong on so many levels," Kennedy said. He could feel Nate's breath on his lips.

"So you do want to do it too!"

"Well I'm trying my best to avoid social suicide. You're my only real friend… Chuck's basically dropped me off into your lap no pun intended. Blair would kill me if I made a move. I'm now in a love square…"

"Are you really interested or just humoring me?"

"We're both lonely Nate. People expect a lot out of you but at the same time, they don't. Obviously being gay would be the biggest act of rebellion you could do as your life has been all planned out for you. There's no easy way out in life. Everything has repercussions Nate… You have to choose one: Serena or Blair. I'm not an option Nate."

"I'm staying the night."

"I don't think it's a good idea."

"If someone's out to get you, we can hideaway in the Hampton's or one of my family's multiple houses across the globe to get to know each other better. My family has tons of off shore bank accounts."

"Nate…"

"You're my first real friend, I'm not going to lose you…" Kennedy was surprised to hear this statement considering his past with Blair and Serena.

"Fine, but don't expect anything."

"I'm going to tell Serena tomorrow."

"You've made your decision?"

"Blair's not the girl for me."

"Just make sure that is what you want N."

"Well you're off the table…"

"Very funny N."

"Well we should probably get started on studying… we have a test tomorrow."

"I have to make a phone call first."

"I'll make some coffee then," Nate said getting up from the couch and headed to the kitchen as Kennedy headed to his bedroom and closed the door shut. It was one of the few tasks in the kitchen he could Nate to pull off without setting the smoke detectors off.

He pulled out his phone and dialed a number. It rung a few times before he hit voicemail.

"Carlisle, I'm scared… They've definitely found me… And now Nate's involved."

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"Kyle, what should do?" asked an agitated Captain Archibald.

"We can't do much… there aren't any real options?"

"We can ask their friends to keep a closer set of eyes on them as we hire additional eyes."

"That won't work."

"Then what should we do?"

"Leave it to the professionals," Kyle said as two familiar faces walked into the room.

"Howard may I introduce you to Agents Gray and White?"

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"Nate?"

"Yeah?" Nate said rubbing the sleep out of his eyes as he turned to face his friend in the bed.

"Thanks."

"You woke me up to thank me?"

"And to do this," Kennedy said kissing his friend.

Nate was shocked.

"What happened to no?"

"I'm a hypocrite but I'm going to burn in hell anyways. You only live once."

"This is a one time offer isn't it?"

"We're going to fail anyways."

"If I knew we were going to this tonight I could have asked Anthony and Charlie for advice."

"You mean…"

"No, they just mess around when there's no one else… and really drunk. They're hornier than Chuck on a good day. We don't really talk about it, but they're kind of open minded like that when neither of them has a girl."

"You can't pick me Nate." 'I don't even know how much longer I'll be here,' he thought sadly.

"I'm going to pick Serena… she's always been really open minded. It's kind of like being around you. I know I have responsibilities, but there's no pressure."

"Are you going to tell Blair first?"

"No… I'm going to tell Serena," Nate stuttered as Kennedy's fingers found a sensitive spot.

"She's going to shoot you down." Kennedy's breath was warm on Nate's face. The blonde became flush as he looked into the other teen's mesmerizing eyes.

"No she won't," Nate said moving his hand up and down Kennedy's chest.

"Don't come crying to me as this won't happen again."

"What about post-championship sex?"

"I never said sex."

"It would be a lot easier if you just let me…"

"Blair is going to kill me if I ever betrayed her like that Nate. She can ruin me like you wouldn't believe. You won't understand… Just don't tell me anything else. I'd rather know as little as possible."

"Kennedy…"

"The less I know, the better. At least then I can tell her the truth… You do realize what you're doing means they will likely never become friends again right?"

Nate remained silent.

"Being gay isn't the answer to your problems either Nate… Sure you wouldn't have to choose between them, but it opens a whole other can of wormssss…" Kennedy said as Nate's fingers began to work their magic on him. Nate had a triumphant grin plastered upon his face as the tables were turned. Kennedy began squirming under his magic.

"Guilty as charged…"

"Maybe if we met somewhere else…"

"I know," Nate said lying back on his back as the two pulled apart.

"We shouldn't be doing this."

"I know, but that's half the fun."

"This breaks like all of the rules of the bro code."

"We can knock it off the bucket list."

"I've never had sex with anyone before…"

"You're in good hands then."

"But you and Blair…"

"Never."

"You didn't."

"What?"

"You cheated on Blair with Serena didn't you."

"How did you figure that out?" Nate said worried.

"It wasn't hard, unlike Natie," Kennedy's said grabbing the other teen's length. "Someone's happy to see me. He's even saluting me!"

"We should get some sleep."

"I thought you wanted to do this Nate."

"I know what you're trying to do… we have to make the best out of it and sleep. Neither of us can afford to fail. You're really doing a number on me and you know I hate being the responsible one. Bed now!"

"Fine."

"And Kennedy."

"Yeah?"

"There's a guy named Matt on the lacrosse team I need to introduce you to."

Kennedy was confused.

"Well things are obviously going south with you and Nelly. And if you won't let us be… he's discrete… I only found out when we got drunk after a game… He told me… I'm the only one who knows… You deserve to be happy even if I can't be that person."

"I never thought of guys like that Nate… we've just taken bromance to a whole other level haven't we?"

"We have haven't we?"

"Let's catch some sleep…"

"Sure."

"And Nate."

"Yeah?"

"Don't come over here high again… You only come on to me when under the influence and I'd prefer you be able to perform when the timings right rather than having to deal with a limp Natie."

Kennedy turned around, with his back facing Nate, and quickly fell back asleep, leaving Nate speechless and awake. Nate just lay there for a while, Kennedy's last few words feeling like a knife to the back.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"That wasn't too bad Nate."

"No, we could have done better if Blair didn't waste half your evening."

"She probably did it so I wouldn't be outdoing here academically."

"Probably."

"About last night…"

"Water under the bridge."

"I shouldn't be judging or telling you what to do."

"I should also stop using around you."

"It's your life."

"You're right though. I'm throwing away my life."

"So when are you going to do it?"

"Today…"

"Good luck bro."

"Thanks."

"And Nate?"

"Yeah?"

"Dorm room."

"Dorm room?"

"Dorm room."

"Dorm room," Nate said in realization.

"Feel better now?"

"No, you kinda…"

"You're worse than a kid just hitting puberty," Kennedy whispered.

"Well you need to stop putting images in my head."

"Go take care of it then, you can't go talk to Serena like this."

"If we were on Facebook, we'd be complicated."

"Yes we would."

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"Kennedy?" a voice said from behind him.

"How did you know I was here?"

"Gossip Girl," Nate said pointing to an image on his phone.

"I made varsity," Kennedy smiled as Nate went to hug his friend who had a sad look upon his normally handsome face. "Sorry to rub salt in the wound, but what's wrong?"

"Well I went to talk to Serena and she told me that she did not come back for me… And that's because I'm taken. I'm her best friend's boyfriend. And she won't do that to Blair… Of course you were right…"

"Maybe you should take this as a sign."

"I should break up with Blair either way… I've been a bad boyfriend."

"Well I'm here for you."

"You up for a run?"

"Sure."

"Loser does whatever the winner wants within reason."

"Fine."

'Sucker' Nate thought. "I forgot to tell you this before, but competition really gets me going," the lighter haired male said with a smile as he adjusted himself.

'Oh shit, what have I got myself into?' Kennedy thought.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"So what do you want?" a sweaty and exhausted Kennedy said in a defeated tone.

"I'll let you know when I think of something," Nate said with a wicked grin as they parted ways.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"Kennedy, can you let me in? My hands are full right now," Nate's voice echoed with a bit of urgency in it. Unfortunately he was met with silence. If it were any other day Nate would have let things slide, but this wasn't one of those days. Today he had an extra bite to him that wouldn't allow him to take any crap from anyone, not even they guy they kind of lusted after regularly.

"This isn't funny dude." The almost desperation in the blonde's voice was music to the brunette's ears.

"No!" Kennedy screamed back from the couch. An empty pint of ice cream and several coffee mugs littered the coffee table before him. It looked more like that of a PMS-ing teen than a brooding athlete.

"I can't believe you let Gossip Girl win! You're the one who's always told me to ignore it. Skipping school only made THEM seem more real. You should have come today and put all of the rumors to rest. Dude you're only digging your grave deeper by locking yourself away to wallow away here."

Nate could hear movement from the other side of the door. First it was the other male dismounting the coach and soon foot steps were heard across the aged hardwood floors. Sure enough Kennedy opened the apartment door soon after to face his friend.

"Took you long enough." Nate immediately tried to wedge himself in, but he met resistance.

"Well tough cookies," Kennedy said. Nate looked at his friend and could tell he looked like complete and utter crap. It was a weird moment for both of them. Nate was being the responsible one while Kennedy was there looking like he was hung over or at least going through withdrawal from an illegal substance that many of their classmates took.

"I brought brunch because I owe you man."

"I take it you're back together."

"Yeah…"

"Congratulations," Kennedy said in an uninterested tone.

"The blast made her realize that she could become Gossip Girl's next target if she weren't careful… Blair's making everyone wear a mask to her party," Nate said presenting his friend a box."

"I take it this is mine… Why she's still inviting me is beyond me?" Kennedy replied bored.

"She knows how it feels to be the target of a false blast."

Kennedy looked at the satin mask. "Have you done anything indecent with it Archibald?"

"Nope."

"Too bad… I was kind of hoping you did. I thought you would have wanted to mark me as your own… I'll go tomorrow night if it means that much to you."

Nate turned crimson. 'So he likes masks?'

"You're too easy… I should really give you a key though N. It would make things a lot easier when you decide to sleep over… in the middle of the night."

"That's a big step in our relationship K."

"Very funny Archibald."

"What's next? A drawer for my clothes?"

"Speaking of clothes, I'd like all of mine back when you get a chance. You've taken half my boxers already."

"They're comfy though."

"You're lucky we're about the same size."

"Sure makes the uniform thing a non issue when I crash here unexpectedly."

"Are my boxers comfy or do you just like wearing them because they're mine Nate?"

"Well…" Nate blushed

"I thought so." Kennedy smiled. "You're a weird one Nate… Why don't we go shopping?"

"I hate shopping."

"Well I'm running out of clean clothes or rather clothes in general now that I think of it… That's my hoodie you have on right now." Nate had the decency to blush. "And besides I need to get a wrestling singlet among other things for gym."

Nate thought about it for a minute before agreeing.

"Tomorrow morning."

"Why don't we go after we eat? God knows I need to get out of this place before I let Gossip Girl win even more… You can even help make sure it all fits me properly seeing as I've never worn one before."

"You also need to get new gloves after the last game we had versus Trinity… Scratch that, I need to get you new gloves and a few other things like that cup you wanted."

Kennedy blushed thinking back to their first gym class together. "Yes you do."

"Then dig in so we can get going sooner."

"The usual?" Kennedy asked.

"Nope, got the chef to make something special… All of your favorites."

"Sounds good. I love sausage."

Nate snickered "I know you do… Now hurry up, we still have to start studying for Monday. I had to take notes for the two of us today and it was a complete pain."

"Aww Nate, you're the best," the darker haired teen said enveloping his friend in a tight hug. "What would I do without you?"

The lighter haired teen blushed at how close they had become. He could feel the scruff of Kennedy's unshaven face.

"It… was no problem."

"I take it Dan gave you the rest of my work minus Latin?"

"Yeah… Had to get that off of Matt."

"Remind me to thank him some time Can you point me in the right direction?"

"He's part of the Lacrosse team."

"Lacrosse is a spring sport Archibald, so that's no help."

"Oh… I'll introduce you some time."

"Good, as it would be good to have someone to talk to in Latin."

"That bad?"

"You wouldn't believe… The teacher had a thing for Connor."

"And you know this how?"

"First day of school when Kyle came to help with Queller."

"Oh."

"Yeah… both were messy."

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

Hours later the duo were finishing up their rounds. They currently were at the sporting goods department of some store Nate had been going to since he was in diapers.

"Nate, I feel ridiculous," Kennedy said walking out of his "dressing room."

"You're supposed to. They don't hide anything."

"Just admit it, you like dressing me up like Blair does to you."

"I do not."

Kennedy laughed. "I would take you more seriously if you were keeping your eyes above my waist Archibald. You weren't kidding when you said they don't hide anything," Kennedy said as he noticed how the material contoured around his body.

"Fine… I'll admit that I'm a little jealous in that department," the blonde whispered as he looked at the others groin.

"It's not the size of the ship, its how skilled the captain is."

Nate smiled. "Want to help me dock my ship?"

"In a few months Archibald."

"Change out of that and we can get going. That obviously is the right one for you."

"Maybe we should both join the wrestling team," Kennedy smiled as his friend turned crimson. "It would be a lot of fun."

"Maybe for you."

"Your loss. It would be the perfect opportunity to grope and grind without anyone suspecting a thing."

"Blair's corrupted you… Or maybe it was Chuck… Whoever it was, you need to get away from them."

"Actually it was you Archibald, you just get so hot and bothered every time I see you," Kennedy said passionately from the other side of the door.

"Hypocrite," Nate said to himself.

"Heard that."

"Damn."

"Up for another challenge?" Kennedy said emerging from the dressing room.

"Sure." Nate was ready for payback.

"Well why don't you head for the counter, I'm going to grab a few more things."

"Like what? We have everything we came for."

"Not everything," Kennedy said in a tone that sent blood rushing below the equator.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"This isn't my idea of a challenge," Nate said as he looked at the other teen… I was expecting less clothing considering you grabbed that many jocks."

"Well you steal my boxers, so I figured my jockstraps would be next."

"I don't even wear those! That's gross dude."

"So is wearing my underwear."

"So what are the rules?"

"First one to finish them all wins."

"But there's so many," Nate whined.

"Chicken."

"How original dude."

"You're going down."

"No, you're going down on me."

"Nate, we've talked about this before… Just because you're horny and have a complicated situation with Blair and Serena doesn't mean I'm crossing that line.

"But dude."

"Dude no."

"You suck."

"I do suck at these, so you have a shot," Kennedy said picking up a Sudoku puzzle.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"I win!" Nate said triumphantly.

"Not fair."

"I know what I want."

"What?"

"I get to crash here for the rest of the weekend."

"How romantic Nate," Kennedy said in falsetto.

"Well I do have to woo you."

"So what are you going to do about Blair and Serena?" Kennedy asked as he looked at his friend.

"I'll stay with Blair… the more I think about it, she was probably right… I may have a connection with Serena, but it's not worth hurting everyone else."

"See, you didn't take the easy way out, you did the right thing. Don't sell yourself short Archibald. The easy thing would have been pissing Blair off which would have given Chuck what he wanted."

"What are you talking about?"

"Forget what I said and you can grope me in bed."

"Fine with me!" Nate said. "Is this a new way to get me to study because it's definitely working for me!"

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"I'm beginning to think this was a bad idea dude," Nate said.

"You were the one who wanted this Nate, so now we both have to deal with being boned up."

"Well we could…"

"No. We're neither in a relationship nor in middle school. No sex or circle jerks."

"Wait those exist?"

"Wow you really are blond."

"I was joking… Of course I know about them, I've been on a few teams over the years."

"Good night Nate."

"Night," the lighter haired teen said draping an arm around the other male as he moved closer to spoon.

"Bromance."

"Our little secret." 'If only you knew K.'

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

"I still can't believe you did that," Kennedy said as Nate followed him in. The Kiss on the Lips party had been interesting to say the least.

"Well you clean up well and we had masks."

"Blair knows which masks we had."

"We are in no danger."

"Nate we really need to stop this… I don't want to lose you as a friend."

"You're not going to."

"N."

"K."

"Can you hang out with your other friends more… Jeremy in particular has been sending me a lot of glares lately."

"But you told me to stop using… that's all we ever really did together."

Kennedy sighed.

"Besides, we have more fun together."

"Is there some hidden Archibald mansion your family isn't using right now."

"There is one on Nantucket."

"Nantucket you say," Kennedy said with a glint in his eyes.

"I think I know what to get you for Christmas now K."

"That's if we make the finals N."

"We will dude."

"Well your grades have been steady…"

'Thank you God,' Nate thought to himself.

"We can take it slow… You do realize what you're risking right?"

"Yeah."

"Nate, your future, your inheritance… You could lose it all."

"I don't need all of that."

"I know that from how you dress most of the time," the darker haired male replied sarcastically.

"Hey!"

"We should get to bed, you have that brunch to go to tomorrow."

"You should come."

"Chuck hates his dad, I'm not going to stay on his good side… and besides I have plans with my trainer. I've ditched him a few times already."

"That's the first time I've heard of this."

"He's a former athlete himself, he's helping me refine my goalie skills."

"You're going to miss out."

"Well I need to keep up my game if you want your happy ending Nate."

"Then I wont stop you."

"I didn't think you would."

"How did Nelly take you dumping her?"

"Surprisingly well… It's almost as if Blair had told her ahead of time as I couldn't get a word in edge wise."

"I'm going to take a shower, will you get the food started without burning the place down?"

"I've been improving!"

"I know Nate, you'll be the perfect househusband in a few years."

"Speak for yourself. I'm going to be Mayor and you'll be my secretary."

"How original Nate."

"Well it would be the perfect cover."

"You need to graduate twice before that first."

"How much longer do we need to keep doing this K?"

"I don't know… We'll take it one day at a time N."

"I could really care less what other people think."

"Your father knows something."

"What?"

"I'm being selfish. Is that what you wanted to hear? I'm not ready to be with you in any capacity because your father knows something about my past and isn't telling me it? He obviously feels guilty with the way he gave me the letter."

"We're done here," Nate said getting angry.

"N."

"You're using me."

"No, I'm not."

"Yes you are."

"If I were using you, I would be sleeping with you right now instead of helping you academically and personally."

"Are you trying to trick me?"

"No."

"Yes you are. I'm not as dumb as I look," Nate said grabbing his coat and heading out the door.

"Nate wait."

The teen turned around. "Goodnight Kennedy."

"Night Nate," Kennedy said watching his friend walk away.

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

Kennedy was beginning to become sick of Nate leaving late at night, only to show up bright and early the next day.

"Kennedy I know you're in there." Nate was frustrated after knocking and calling for several minutes.

"Archibald it's four in the morning," a sleepy Kennedy said as he opened his door to let the other male in. "What are you doing even up? I was happily sleeping."

"I can tell," Nate's eyes went south.

"Eyes up here Nate."

"They've made up… well for the most part."

"Who?" slurred Kennedy as he ushered his friend in before slamming the door shut.

"Serena and Blair," Nate said as if the darker haired teen was a complete and utter idiot. "And since I can't smoke when I'm hanging out with you, you have to deal with me now since I don't have it to calm me down."

"I'll make us coffee as I'm sure you wont let me go back to sleep."

"I'm actually calling in the favor now."

Kennedy had a confused look.

"I came clean… unfortunately it was when I was going to have sex with Blair…"

"I thought you made up your mind?" Kennedy said with a scrutinizing look.

"I fell back on old habits… it was easier."

"Nate…"

"I know… but I need your help… I need to fix things with Blair for all of our sake's."

"What am I supposed to do?"

"Help me figure out the details."

"That's easy… I was expecting something else to be honest."

"Oh ye of little faith."

"Nate."

"I'm not dumb or blind dude. You didn't have to date Nelly to fit in."

"I don't know what you're talking about. She just happened to be in the right place at the right time I guess."

"Stop lying to yourself… I've seen you sneak glances.

Kennedy looked to the ground. He was so not having this conversation right now.

"I'm not the only guilty party. I've seen you sporting wood in the showers after practice after you glance a little too long at me."

"Have not."

"Have too."

"Kennedy…" Nate whined.

"So dorm room?"

"Dorm room."

"Do you think the Captain was serious when he said he'd consider elsewhere?" Kennedy asked.

"Only if you can't get into Dartmouth, though I don't think that should be a problem with the Captain's recommendation and connections."

Kennedy sighed. "I feel bad using it."

"Don't worry about it… Considering it leveling the playing field."

"I guess… It's a shame… as California would be very fun."

"Why do you think I wanted to go there to begin with?"

"To escape all of this and become just another pretty face."

"So you think I'm pretty?" Nate laughed.

"From your bangs to the balls of your feet."

Nate choked on his drink.

"Those are nice too you dirty little boy."

"Hey! I'm not little!"

"I know… we've showered together before Archibald."

"Not often enough since we don't after gym."

"You're weird Nate. This bromance is starting to be more of a romance…"

"Well…"

"I don't half do things Nate."

"That's good to know as I would hate to be left with blue balls."

"Well get used to them as you wont be getting any action with me any time soon."

"Then I'm not responsible for what happens when we wrestle."

"I won't hold you responsible Nate. I'd actually find it quite flattering."

"So I can stroke your ego, but not this?" Nate said copping more than a feel.

"You can't handle it Pretty Boy."

:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:‾:

Spotted, Golden Boy visiting Mystery Boy in the middle of the night. Late night booty call N? K, I didn't know you had it in you? Now that's an image… I'm sure B, S, and Nelly Yuki won't be looking at you two the same anytime soon.

At what point do bromances evolve into romances? Maybe I should ask C? It must sting to see two of your friends getting together behind your back.

All joking aside, those two are quickly becoming thick as thieves. Hopefully this doesn't disrupt the balance of power too much. N must be in trouble to be waking up K in the middle of the night if what I've heard about him is true. We all remember THAT day he was sans coffee correct?

XOXO, Gossip Girl
