It was lunchtime for the students. The Constance Billard Girls ate on the steps of the Met. Reed suggested going to the Met to intimidate them. They all agreed. Before they left, Noelle said to Reed and Lee, "Three more empty rooms! We have to get six new people! What do you think Reed?"
Reed got what Noelle meant. "You're totally right. I mean who would not want to have six new Billings sisters!?"
Lee said, "I love it! Six new people! We should do that. I mean we could not have it empty. That is just psychedelic!"
Some Pemberly girls began whispering feverishly and ran off to tell the other people.
"Well, come on to the Met steps, girls!" Reed trilled.
After classes, Lee talked to the Billings Girls and thought that Jenny would be Billings material. Everyone agreed. Including Noelle, even though she said it was because she felt sorry for Jenny. Therefore, Lee found Jenny talking to one of Blair's posse. She took Jenny's bag and notebooks and then grabbed Jenny's hand.
"Come on Jenny. I'm taking you."
Jenny obeyed and then the girl said, "So, if you want to go to the Bliss spa with me, let me know! Oh, hi, Lee."
Jenny said, "Why'd you do that for?"
Lee sagely replied, "That girl's evil. She's one of Blair's posse."
"But she seemed nice. How do you know?" Jenny countered.
"First of all, being nice is her pickup line. I also saw her accepting Blair's invitation to lunch. Even if I didn't, I would have still figured out."
"But how could you figure out? I hung out with Blair's posse, even became their Queen Bee for a while, and then they dumped me for Blair again." Jenny said.
"I am a mean girl, Jenny!"
She guided Jenny to the steps of the Met and then Lee sat down next to Reed. Jenny decided to sit next to Constance. Constance seemed nice, so she decided to give it a shot. It was a good thing she did, because Ariana sat down below Lee, and Ariana looked like she was supposed to sit there. Sabine sat next to Jenny and smiled. Jenny smiled back. Sabine seemed nice enough too.
"Jenny, here's your sushi and lemonade. I didn't know what you wanted, so I just picked the obvious. But you can always have my mimosa if you want." Sabine said.
Jenny liked Sabine a lot. Sabine was nice, and she was caring enough to buy her a lunch! "Thanks Sabine. I really appreciate it. I mostly skip lunch."
Lee looked horrified. "You should eat three meals a day, Jenny. It's unhealthy."
"Ironic, Lee, coming from you. You have as much shit as Pearson." Noelle said.
Lee just stared at Noelle reproachfully.
Jenny asked, "Whose Pearson? Noelle's boyfriend?"
Noelle angrily flashed her eyes, Ariana frowned, and everyone else looked nervous. Lee was the only one who looked amused.
"Pearson is Thomas Pearson. He goes here. Noelle's boyfriend is in Yale." Lee said.
Jenny nodded as if she was satisfied, but she had a million more questions. She couldn't ask them of course, because Blair came to the steps with her posse.
"Who are you naïve people to sit on my steps?" Blair angrily said. Jenny was afraid now.
Noelle stood up and said, "You look like the person who insulted Astrid. Oh wait, you ARE that person." She then sat back down.
Reed then stood up. "Blair Waldorf, in case you didn't know, no one insults my friends without a negative backlash from me. I guess the backlash just started."
Blair said, "Fine, but don't think I won't do anything." She stood there until someone pushed her out of the way.
A little freshmen held a huge gift basket with Fekkai, Bliss, La Mer, and MAC products and said in a nasal voice, "It's a housewarming gift. If you need any space to fill your three rooms, let me know." She set the basket at their feet.
Reed told Lee, Jenny, Ariana, and Sabine, "Divide it among yourselves." They then were pawing through the gift basket, happy.
"I get the Russian Red lip gloss!"
"I get the black nail polish!"
Blair and her posse by then were at the other side of the Met eating.
The next wannabes gave them boxes of jewelry, or they gave them beauty products and the like.
"So Jenny, how would you like it if you went shopping with us, and then ate dinner at Butter with us too?" Reed said.
Jenny was thrilled. She would love to eat dinner with the girls who were Easton royalty. She could apply to Easton, then eat sushi and drink mimosas, and the girls would shower her them with gifts when there was an empty spot. So she readily agreed.
When it was time for them to go, they all stood up, then went back to their classrooms. But not Jenny. She went to the boy's side of the building and talked to Dan.
"Hey Dan! I just talked to these really nice and popular girls called the Billings Girls and we ate lunch together, and now were going to Butter!" Jenny said, excitedly.
"Jenny, the Billings Girls. They are shady, and they are exactly like Blair. I don't like them." Dan said.
"What about Lee? She's really nice!" Jenny said, chipper.
"First of all, Lee is Blair's worst enemy. Blair said so today. She can be nice to you and then ruin your life in the blink of an eye, Jenny." Dan said, firm.
"Ariana? She is the editor-in-chief of The Quill. She's also nice." Jenny said.
"Look, I'm normally not the type to listen to Chuck, but Chuck is normally right in gossip. He said Ariana killed some guy named Thomas, went to an insane asylum, escaped, and came back here with Thomas, alive, and now they're lording over the school." Dan said.
"Sabine? She's really nice, and she used her own money to get me sushi." Jenny said.
"Sabine is Ariana's sister. She is shady, too. Someone said Sabine killed someone." Dan said.
"What about Astrid? There is nothing wrong about her!" Jenny said.
"Getting expelled for smoking? Yeah, right. Shady, Jenny!"
"Come on! Constance then. Like her?" Jenny asked.
"Well, all right, I think she's fine. Jenny, do me a favor. Do not hang around with them unless you are with me, Constance, or with a big group of adults." Dan said.
To humor Dan, Jenny said, "Yes. Dan."
