It was a Saturday morning and Jenny sat at the kitchen counter tapping her fingers waiting for Dan to leave. Nate was due to arrive in five minutes and Dan was no' where near ready to leave. Jenny prayed that he was going to be late but no such luck when there was a knock at the door and Nate stood there in the doorway when Jenny opened it.

"Hey you!" he greeted her leaning in for a kiss. Jenny however pulled away and covered his mouth with her hand.

"Sorry but Dan's still here." She whispered. "Any chance you can come back in say, ten minutes?"

Nate shook his head. "Don't be stupid. Can I come in? It's quite cold standing out here."

Jenny sighed. "Sure." She stepped back and opened the door wider to let him in. She watched him sit his fine ass down, closed the door and then joined him. They looked at each other and then leaned in together. As their lips touched Dan's voice sounded from his room. "Hey Jenny, what's the time?" They both pulled apart and Nate jumped up with a guilty look on his face as Dan appeared out of his room. "Jenny did you hear me? My watch has stopped working. Oh hey man, didn't hear you come in. Jenny why didn't you tell me Nate was here?"

"Nah, don't worry I just got here." Nate said smiling and trying to give him a look that said I-didn't-just-nearly-kiss-your-little-sister.

"Ye and we just got talking." Jenny responded, giving Nate a look that told him to back her up.

"Er, yeah. So, sorry to hear about the whole Serena thing." Nate told him, changing the subject.

"What Serena thing?"

Nate and Jenny looked at each other. They were sure he had seen it, but then again, Dan had been in a relatively good mood since it was published on Gossip Girl so maybe he hadn't seen it. "Have you not seen the latest on Gossip Girl?" Jenny asked her brother.

"What with Serena and Chuck?" he asked before continuing. "Yeah I saw that. I never would have pictured those two together. He's all dark and twisted and she's, well, not." He said nonchalantly.

"Why are you so cool about this? I thought you liked her." Jenny asked confused.

"Yeah I do but as a friend. She's too …conventional for my liking."

Nate and Jenny laughed. "Too conventional? What's that meant to mean?" Nate asked him.

"She's the girl everyone likes, you know, tall, blonde hair, smart, really sweet, been with half the male population at school. If I'm honest, I'm just not interested in all that."

"Then why were you helping her study for the algebra test last night?" Jenny asked.

"'Cause I'm a nice person. It's like helping you out with your algebra test Jen." He explained as his phone started ringing. "Hello? Oh hey!" he said, his face lighting up when he realised who it was." Erm, yeah sure I can do that … yeah, I'll stop off on the way … no don't be silly … alright, I won't argue with you … ok see you soon Blair, bye." He hung up his phone and put it in his jacket pocket. When he looked up he saw two stunned faces staring at him. "What?" he asked.

"Please tell me that wasn't Blair Waldorf, as in his ex girlfriend." Jenny said pointing to Nate, who was chuckling at Jenny's reaction because he didn't really care. It was clear when from his face lit up that he was totally in to her and who was he to stop him. Blair was his ex girlfriend, not his sister. If he was honest he had to be cool with it. After all, he needed Dan to be cool with him dating his sister, he had to do everything he could in order to get Dan's blessing. If being cool about him dating his ex girlfriend then that's a sacrifice he was willing to make.

"Yes it was and I'm running late. Jenny, can you see to Nate? Sorry man but I gotta run. Catch you later?" he said as he ran out the door.

They both stared after him even when the door was closed. "He is totally in to her." Jenny stated. "That must be weird for you."

"Not really. I mean, there are a lot worse guys than Dan, let's be honest."

Jenny nodded. "So, did you hear what he said? He asked me to see to you, so is there anything I can do for you?" Jenny asked, seductively.

Nate grinned. "Well there is one thing you could do …" He picked her up in his arms and kissed her hard on her lips. Jenny instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist and Nate carried her to the couch where he threw her down and laid on top of her. He kissed her on the lips again but gently this time and it was Jenny who deepened the kiss. Nate brought his lips to her jaw and down to her neck and collarbone and back up to her lips when they only broke the kiss to remove Jenny's top, which was flung across the room. At the sound of keys rattling outside the front door, Nate jumped off Jenny who grabbed her top and ran as fast as she could to the bathroom before whoever was outside the door could catch them. Nate stood up wiping his mouth before Dan ran through the door. "Sorry I forgot my wallet. Where's Jenny?" he asked as he picked up his wallet from the counter.

"Bathroom." Was all Nate managed to get out. His heart was pounding at the thought that Dan had nearly caught his little sister making out with his friend in the middle of the loft. When his back was turned Nate did a double check to make sure she had definitely taken her top with her. If Dan had seen her top in the middle of the floor he would have definitely become suspicious. Luckily she had.

Dan picked up his wallet and before he left, he said, "Hey, I'm sorry about what happened before. I didn't mean to hit you I was just a bit shocked. Jenny's my little sister and I want to protect her and I'm not saying you'll hurt her or anything, it's just you're a lot more experienced than she is and … look I'm just looking out for her. I'm happy for the two of you to be friends but anything more than that and it's just a bit weird for me."

"I understand. Don't worry; I won't do anything to make you feel uncomfortable." Nate responded but felt incredibly guilty.

"Yeah, I trust you won't. Okay, I gotta go, tell Jenny I'll see her later." He said before leaving.

Nate let out a breath of relief. "Dan's gone Jenny." He called out to her. She opened the door to the bathroom and walked out looking relieved.

"We have to tell him Nate. I can't take this anymore."

He looked at her and whilst he didn't fancy another punch in the face, he knew she was right.
