They walked in hand in hand through the two magestic doors. Blair gasped as she saw the decorations. Unlike the actual prom, which had been clearly white, the decorations at the after prom were gold and silver. Eric led her to a table where Serena and Dan were sitting. They sat beside them. The table had a big bouquet of white tulips. Blair settled her sweater on the back of her seat. She looked around to see if she saw anyone she knew. There was no sign of Chuck or Nate. She couldn't see the crew either. She turned to Serena.

"Do you know when Chuck or Nate are coming?"

"No. I think they might be here around eight."

"Okay."

She smiled and turned back to Eric. He was just sitting there.

"Want to go dance?"

He looked at her.

"You want to?"

"Well why do you think I asked?"

He let out a little laugh.

"Fine, let's go."

He helped her up and led her to the middle of the dance floor. They started dancing. She was laughing and having a good time. Every once and a while she would look at the majestic doors. Where are they? she thought. She kept dancing with Eric. People looked at them and were shocked that they were a couple. They both tried not to laugh. They danced for another few songs. They made their way back to the table. Serena and Dan had left to go dance. Blair laughed as she saw them on the dance floor. Serena loved to dance and Dan was pretending like he did. Eric got up and got them some drinks. Blair sat by herself. Kati and Is came up to her table. They looked miserable. She smiled at them.

"Hello you two."

They just waved in unison. Is broke the silence.

"We just want you to know that we had nothing to do with what Hazel is going to do tonight."

"I know."

They smiled. Kati spoke.

"Well we have to be going. It was nice talking to you."

They walked away. Blair was pleased with herself. She had actually talked to some of her former friends with out anyone's feelings getting hurt. Was this a sign for the future? Eric came back with some Pepsis. He handed one to Blair.

"Thank you."

She took a sip. Normally she would only drink diet Pepsi, but tonight she felt like her looks didn't matter. As if they never did. She took another sip. Eric turned to her.

"You want to go dance again."

"Sure."

She settled her drink on the table and he once again escorted her to the dance floor. They danced to Elevator by Flow Rida. They were both laughing. Serena and Dan joined them. They were all having a good time. The majestic doors were starting to open. Every turned to look at them. Blair stood on her toes to see. She still couldn't see. Eric brought her back to the table. He stood on a chair and motioned for her to do the same. She did. She saw Penny and Carter walk in. They both had plastered smiles on their faces. Penny was wearing a emerald green halter dress with silver accessories. Carter was wearing a black tux with a green tie to match Penny. They walked to their table. As they sat down, Jenny and Nate walked in. Jenny had a big smile on her face and waved to people. Nate just stood there, looking as uncomfortable as ever. Jenny was wearing a light pink dress that stopped at her knees. She was also wearing matching flats. She has heir up in a loose ponytail. For a second she resembled Serena. Nate was wearing a black tux with a white tie. He didn't even look like he was having a good time. They walked to their table and sat next to Penny and Carter. Everyone waited for the next two people to walk out the doors. Hazel came marching with confidence and Chuck by her side. Hazel was wearing a bright yellow dress that fit relatively close to her body. She was trying to show her 'curves' but she had completely missed that. Her hair was put down. Chuck looked like Nate had: uncomfortable and bored. He was wearing a black tux with a red dress shirt under. He looked up and saw Blair standing on a chair. He gave her a small smile, which she returned. They walked to their table and sat with the other four people. Blair and Eric got off their chairs. Serena and Dan came back to their table. Dan looked worried. Serena laughed.

"Relax Dan. Jenny is going to be fine."

"I know, but did you see the dress she was wearing. What if guys get the wrong idea."

Blair decided to intervene.

"Cabbage Patch, I highly doubt any guy will be picking up your sister. They all know what you did you Chuck's face."

He smiled.

"Thank you, Blair."

She just smiled back. She turned to Eric.

"How about we go and greet out hosts?"

He gave her a suspicious look.

"You want to go greet them?"

"Yes."

"Okay."

They excused themselves from their table and made their way to the table which seated the hosts. They all stiffened when Blair and Eric got there. Blair smiled.

"Hello. I just wanted to say what a great party."

Everyone else smiled. She tried hard not to look at Chuck or Nate. Hazel gave her a fake smile.

"We're glad you could come."

They both knew you had to always pretend to be on you're best behaviour. Upper East Side rules. Blair spoke again.

"I love all of your dresses. They look better here than they did at the actual prom."

She was telling the truth. Jenny gave her a fake smile.

"Thank you. You seemed to look better at the actual prom."

Blair knew Jenny wouldn't be giving her anything bigger than that tonight. The only one that was getting back at her was Hazel. Who ever Jenny was going to be getting at Blair was going to protect. She didn't want anyone who meant a lot to her be hurt by someone who was just a social climber. Blair gave Jenny a smile.

"Thank you for your opinion."

Jenny gave her a glare. Blair kept on smiling. It was becoming harder and harder. Penny decided she should have a shot at the queen B.

"B, don't you think you're showing a lot of skin. We don't want people to think that this was a low class gathering."

The girls laughed. Blair looked down at her outfit. It was the same strapless red dress she had bought a week ago. It went down to her knees. Was this considered slutty. Luckily, Eric came to her defence.

"I think the only one covered up here is Blair. I don't know what you call that wrapping paper your wearing."

All of their jaws dropped. Eric simply gave them a smile. Blair tried hard not to laugh, but she couldn't help it. She started laughing and Eric joined her. Carter kept looking at the girls then back at Eric and Blair. He got up and got in Eric's face.

"You really shouldn't be saying that."

Eric raised his eyebrow.

"And why not?"

"Because you and your little girlfriend's lives are going to be ruined tonight."

Eric put on a sarcastic scared face.

"Is that a threat?"

Carter just smirked.

"I think it's a fact."

He went back and sat down. Chuck and Nate had gone to get drinks from the bar. Eric looked at Blair.

"Let's get back. We don't want to keep Serena and Dan waiting."

He grabbed her hand and made their way back to their original table. Serena and Dan were laughing at a joke he had told her. Eric sat down. Blair stayed standing. She turned to Serena.

"S, can I talk to you?"

"Yeah sure."

Blair led them to the bathroom. She checked to make sure that no one was there. Once she had double checked, she turned back to Serena.

"You know how Hazel is supposed to ruin my life tonight?"

Serena laughed.

"Yes."

"I think her 'army' is going to get back at everyone I know. Like you."

Serena's eyes grew wide open.

"Why would they do that?"

"I don't know. I think that you and Eric might be targeted."

She walked over to a sink. She looked into the mirror. Was this the same girl people used to be afraid of? Now they were trying to ruin her? How did this happen? She turned back to Serena.

"S, what if they know about Eric?"

Serena looked up at her. Worry had washed over her face.

"That's what I'm afraid of."

Blair put an arm around her friend.

"I'll make sure they don't."

Serena looked up at her.

"How?"

Blair took a deep breath.

"I'll find a way."

Serena smiled.

"Thanks B."

Blair managed to smile back.

"No problem."

They walked out of the bathroom. They made their way back to the ballroom. Blair saw Hazel, Jenny and Penny standing by the bar. She turned to Serena.

"I'll be right back."

Serena nodded. Blair made her way to the three girls. She tapped Hazel on the shoulder. Hazel turned around. She looked in disgust.

"What do you want?"

Blair glared at her.

"You do whatever you want to me, but you are not going to do anything to anyone I care about, is that clear."

Hazel just smiled.

"What fun is in that? Besides we don't care."

She started to turn away. Blair grabbed her arm.

"Just go after me, no one else!"

Hazel smiled.

"Why should we listen to you."

With that she laughed. Jenny and Penny joined her. They walked away leaving Blair distraught. What could they possibly be up to? She walked back to her table. She sat beside Serena and Eric. Serena turned to her.

"How did it go?"

Blair took in a deep breath.

"Not as well as I hoped. They still didn't tell me what they are doing."

Serena looked down. They all hoped that nothing would happen to Eric. He just sat there. Suddenly, everyone in the ballroom heard someone tapping a microphone. They all looked to the front of the ballroom. There stood Hazel, Jenny, Penny and Carter. All had evil smiles on their faces. Hazel spoke first.

"May we have Blair Waldorf, Serena and Eric Van der Woodsen and Dan Humphrey come to the front please?"

She glared at Blair. Blair knew she had to go. She was ready for whatever they would throw at her and her friends. She wasn't going down without a fight. Everyone looked at their table. Blair got up and was followed by her fellow table members. They made their way to where Hazel and her crew stood. Hazel gave her a fake smile.

"Blair, would you please stand here?"

She pointed to a platform big enough for just one person. Blair did as Hazel wanted to. That was the key. Give her what she wants till she has no more then hurt her where it counts. Blair smiled as she stood on her platform. Hazel turned toward the audience again.

"Everyone here knows who Blair Waldorf is, right? They have either been humiliated by her or been one of her many acquaintances. Well tonight we want to show you the real Blair. The one no one has seen. But in order to get to that, we must take a closer look at her circle of friends"

She handed the microphone over to Penny.

"Why don't we start with Serena van der Woodsen."

She gave Serena a small glare.

"We all now Serena left and then came back out of the blue. But we never knew why. Later we found out it was because we was a patient at the Ostroff center. But I am here to inform you, that was a lie! Serena left because she slept with her best friend's boyfriend!"

There were a lot of gasps. Blair turned white. Nate, Chuck and Eric were in complete shock. Serena looked like she was about to cry. How did she find out! she thought. Dan put his arm around her. He whispered in her ear.

"She's just a bitch."

Penny and the crew all stood with big smiles on their faces. Penny continued to talk.

"Looks like you really are the bad girl. What a slut you are. But the question on everyone's minds are why did you come back? Did you want some more action from Nate?"

She laughed and so did the crew. Serena was trying her best to stay standing. Blair looked at her in concern. Serena knew she and Blair had such a strong friendship that nothing this low could damage it. Penny passed the microphone over to Jenny. Jenny took center stage.

"We'd all like to think that she came back for some more action from Nate, but that was not the case. She came back for her brother. Eric van der Woodsen was the real patient at the Ostroff center. She was just covering up for him. And no, he isn't a alcoholic or drug addict. He tried to kill himself. What lonely, Eric?"

She snickered. So did the crew. Eric tried to stay strong. He couldn't. His legs started to run. He ran out. Blair tried to chase after him, but Carter stopped her.

"You're not going anywhere."

He sent her a death glare. She gulped and went back on the platform. Serena and Dan had now raced to Eric. Chuck and Nate sat in shock, like most of people in the ballroom. Blair noticed tears falling from her eyes. How could they do this to him? Jenny passed the microphone over to Carter.

"Well we seem to know all about the van der Woodsen's now, but what about other important people in Ms. Waldorf's life. How about her two ex boyfriends. Nate Archibald and Chuck Bass."

He pointed to them. They both gulped. What could this weasel have to say about them.

"Nate Archibald, has been through a lot this year. His dad was in rehab, he was forced to tell his girlfriend about his affair with her best friend and he found out his girlfriend had slept with his best friend. Why that's got to suck. His parents even pressured him to get back with Blair. Being forced to love someone, what a lie."

He sent Nate a glare. Nate looked like he was going to kill him. Carter smiled.

"Chuck Bass is another guy that we all know about. Most ladies here have seen a whole lot more of him."

There was a snicker heard from the people in the ballroom.

"He found love with his best friend's girlfriend. In fact he took what was meant for Nate, her virtue. Well he seemed to like her a whole lot after that, to bad he lost a best friend out of it. Too bad he also lost the girl. Recently he was seen dating her, but to bad she left him for a younger man."

He laughed. Chuck glared at him. How did they get all this inside information. Carter passed the microphone to Hazel. She smiled that big fake ugly smile of hers.

"Well, now that we know about her friends, why don't we get to know the real Blair Waldorf. Blair's dad is a gay lawyer who until recently was living in Paris. To bad he was a dumb ass and crashed into a truck."

Blair's tears came back. How could she say that! Her father was not a dumb ass! Hazel continued.

"Her mother is world renowned fashion designer, Eleanor Waldorf. You see living with a mother like Eleanor can make someone feel uneasy, so what does Blair do, she throws up of course. Too bad it isn't doing to good of a job."

Chuck felt like getting up and killing Hazel, but Nate stopped him. Hazel was still smiling.

"She also is a slut, which we all know. She doesn't even deserve to be with Chuck, Nate or Eric. She deserves a homeless man, but he probably wouldn't give her the time of day. She is a bitch and we all know why she got dethroned. And that is all you need to know about Blair Waldorf."

The crew bowed. Blair couldn't even look at them. She jumped off the platform and ran out the ballroom. Chuck and Nate chased her. She was outside with Serena, Dan and Eric. It was obvious at least three people had been crying. She walked over to the Serena and Eric and gave them a hug. They didn't deserve what happened to them. She turned around and gave Chuck and Nate a hug. They all huddled together. Blair took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry for what they did. I'll get them back."

Eric spoke next.

"You don't need to be sorry. We can fight them and win."

She smiled at him. Serena spoke next.

"He's right. We need to fight."

Nate spoke next.

"Don't let them bring you down, fight!"

She laughed. Chuck spoke.

"Their right, Waldorf. This is a good time to fight. You can get them, they have nothing on you."

She looked at all of them and smiled. They were going to fight and they were going to win, she was sure of it.

"Okay, let's go."

They all lined up and held hands with each other. Blair looked at them all one at a time. She finally looked before her. They stepped through the majestic doors. Everyone awaited what the true Upper East Side royalty was going to do.

Hello Upper EastSiders,
