A/N: Again I would like the thank everyone who took their time to write a review. The prom is almost coming up, but until then enjoy
Blair made her way to the Mets steps. She searched the crowd for any sign of Serena. Suddenly she saw the familiar blonde. She made her way to her, half running.
"Serena! I need to talk to you."
"Sure B, what is it?"
"I asked someone special to meet me at the prom."
"Oh my gosh! Is it Kyle?"
"No it is not Kyle. It's someone more special. Anyways I need to know a good excuse to meet him. Do you know any?"
"Just say you have to go to the bathroom."
"Yes, but what if people think I'm going to go barf."
"Good point. Just say you need to call your mom and that you need to go somewhere quieter."
"That's perfect. Thank you."
"I've used more excuses than anyone. Might as well put it to good."
They laughed. Dan approached them. He kissed Serena and waved to Blair.
"What is up with you two ladies?"
"Well nothing, but I have to go drop some books off. Bye you two."
Blair picked up her stuff and left, leaving Serena and Dan.
"She seems happy. Is the prom getting to her?"
"I think so."
"She's excited to go with a freshman?"
"She's just taking Eric so he can go. It could be the only thing that our mom allows him to go to this year."
"Well she certainly isn't the same Blair Waldorf I met at the beginning of the year."
"Yeah she has changed. Maybe for the better."
"Hey, so when do you want me to come by tonight?"
"Umm 6 would be fine."
"Okay. Why is Bart doing this pre-prom thing?"
"I guess he wants me and Eric to like him better, but who is he kidding. He's just too creepy. But I guess I'll just suck it up."
"I might join you on the sucking up."
"You still uncomfortable with your dad dating Bex?"
"It's not like I hate her, it's just that she's not my mom. What ever happened to till death do we part?"
"I think it got lost in the piles of pre-nups."
"That is very clever Ms. Van der Woodsen."
She laughed and soon he joined in. Once they had calmed down, they held hands. Each other's touch made them feel stronger. Like impossible was nothing, as long as they had each other. Their happiness was cut short by the ring of the bell..
"Damn! Can't we ever have a moment without something interrupting."
Serena laughed at Dan's comment.
"Don't worry there will be no interruptions tonight. I promise."
Dan looked into her eyes and kissed her. They didn't care if everyone saw, because they felt it. They felt true love and no one could take that away from them. They left each other's side to go to their classes.
"I'll see you at lunch."
"I wouldn't have it any other way."
He watched as Serena left to her class. He finally realized what time it was and ran to his class. Once he arrived he took his seat, beside Nate and behind Chuck. He got out his stuff without realizing Chuck had turned toward him.
"Humphrey?"
Dan looked up at him.
"Yeah?"
"You coming tonight?"
"Yeah, seeing as though Serena is my date."
"Is Blair coming?"
"Why do you care?"
"My father is hosting it. I think I have the right to know who is coming."
"I guess she is because she is Eric's date."
"Speaking of Eric, do you even know why she asked him?'
"No, we aren't really close. I don't want to seem rude, but why are you asking about Blair?"
Chuck paused for a second before replying.
"Because she is my friend. My friends only deserve the best care."
Dan rolled his eyes. Chuck saw. Why is he like everyone else, "Oh Chuck doesn't know how to care". Well I'll prove them wrong, he thought.
"If you don't mind, I need to get back to my schoolwork."
Dan pointed to a pile of paper sitting on his desk. Chuck just turned around. As Dan finally started to understand what he was working on, another interruption came.
"Dan, do you know if Blair is going to that whole pre-prom party with Eric?"
Dan turned to look at Nate who had spoken.
"Why don't you ask her."
"Well that would seem a little rude."
And bugging me isn't. Dan thought. He turned his attention back on Nate.
"I don't know if she is."
"Okay. Just asking."
Nate turned back to his work. Dan did the same. He started doing some math problems, when another interruption came.
"Dan, can I-"
"What do you want! Can't you see I'm working."
He turned to the boy who had talked to him. He just looked scared. Dan's face slowly became calm again.
"Ssssory Dan."
Dan turned back to his work. I can't wait till the prom is over!, he thought.
