The six had branched off from each other. Chuck headed for the kitchen. Blair headed for the bathroom. Serena and Nate remained in the room, and Jenny and Dan began to explore the apartment.
"So Dan," Jenny said a bit nervously as they walked slowly through the hall, "did you really mean it that you still had feelings for Vanessa?"
"Yeah, I guess so," Dan said as they walked into the bedroom.
Jenny looked at him, "but don't you love Serena?"
"Yes," Dan said irritated turning to her, "I just answered those ten questions, the last thing I want to do is play twenty questions with my little sister right now."
Jenny shook her head "all right, all right, I'm sorry, but you don't need to get irritated with me," she said as she sat down on the edge of one of the three beds.
"Right because finding out that you are attracted to Chuck Bass and have a crush on Nate Archibald just makes me dance on air. Are you trying to become a slut or do you just have a thing for Blair Waldorf's leftovers?"
Jenny stared up at her brother, "um…ouch," she said quietly as she slid off the bed and walked back into the hallway as Dan stared at the floor.
"You told me you didn't come back for me," Nate said quietly.
"Well I lied," Serena said with a sigh as she stood and began to pace, "I meant what I said though, about her loving you."
"She sure has a funny way of showing it," he mumbled.
Serena glared at him, "I don't get it. How could you be mad at her; what we did was even worse because you and Blair were actually dating at the time."
"Oh, it was worse, really? Did you fake your virginity for Dan?"
Blair sat on the cold bathroom floor, tears stinging her eyes. She had already thrown up twice and she didn't think that she could do it again until she ate…no matter how hard she tried to. She couldn't believe her mother had agreed to this. She thought it was just going to be a bunch of nobodies, not the people that tended to make her life a living hell. But maybe, if she tried hard enough, she could go back to being the old Blair.
Chuck sat on one of the kitchen counters kicking himself in the head. Why did he have to be an idiot and confess that he still had some sort of fuzzy feelings towards Blair? He had told her that he didn't want her, that she was like one of his father's Arabians…why couldn't he have just left it at that?
