Alright for some
Jenny was sat on the couch waiting for Nate to pick her up. Dan was sat next to her "Now if he try's anything tonight Jenny, just hit him really hard with one of your crutches" Dan told her.
Jenny frowned "He's not some serial rapist Dan; he's a really nice guy. You two should hang out sometime" she informed him.
Dan shrugged "I'll consider it" he replied doubtfully.
The doorbell rang "I'll get it, you wait here" Dan commanded.
Jenny made an incredulous noise but remained seated.
Dan swung the door open "Evening Nate" he said cheerily as he did so.
"Oh hi Dan" Nate mumbled almost nervously.
"Come in" he said and Nate entered the loft.
"Wow this place is really cool" Nate pointed out as he went in.
Dan smirked "It's not exactly the Archibald manner. But we like it" he replied dryly.
Jenny piped up "Ignore him he's in a bad mood, Serena hasn't called him" she said.
Dan made a face "You really better get going you wouldn't want to miss the movie" he said as Jenny got up.
"Oh I see now that you look stupid you want me to go out" Jenny replied smiling at her brother.
"It's better to be stupid than boring. Now get going" he said cheerily smiling at her.
Nate helped Jenny stand up and then waited until she had her crutches before making his way towards the door, Jenny by his side. They got outside the door and Nate bent down and kissed her softly on the lips and gently pushed her against the door as he did so. He pulled back "I didn't want to tell you inside, but you look really beautiful" he whispered.
Jenny giggled lightly "Thank you" she replied she was wearing a black dress that puffed out at the waist.
"Are you okay to walk down the stairs?" he asked her.
Jenny bit her lip "I don't know I haven't tried with the crutches" she told him.
He nodded "I have an idea" he said.
"What?" Jenny asked. Nate didn't answer he just lifted her up.
"Just hold your crutches in your hands okay" he told her and she nodded. "You know I've never carried a girl to a date before" he said.
"I like to bring new experiences to the table" she informed him.
He chuckled lightly "I see" he replied.
Once they had made it to the bottom of the stairs he placed her on the floor with care and kissed her on the forehead. He took her hand and they walked over to the car slowly, Jenny had never actually been in a limo before, she knew that most people at her school used them to get everywhere but to her they still held some novelty.
Jenny slid into the back seat and Nate told the driver where to go. "I thought we should get something to eat before we see the movie" he told her.
She nodded "Okay, where are we going?" she asked him.
Nate smiled "Just wait and see" he replied winking at her.
Jenny smiled "Okay" she said.
Nate reached for her hand and stroked her fingers, "You have really small hands" he pointed out quietly staring at them intently.
Jenny giggled "I guess they are, I've never really thought about it" she admitted looking at the hand he wasn't holding. "It might be that you just have really big hands" she told him.
He smiled "Mm maybe" he murmured thoughtfully staring at her fingers.
The limo stopped "Here we are" Nate said getting out of the limo; Jenny went to her open her door. "I'll get it" he told her.
Jenny smiled, he was so charming and cute to boot.
Nate pulled open to door and held out his hands so that she could stand up. Jenny stood up and fell against him as pain shot through her leg.
"I know I'm good looking Jenny but there is no need to throw yourself at me" he joked rubbing her cheek with his thumb. "Are you alright?" he asked her.
She nodded steadying herself "I'm fine" she replied smiling at him.
"Let's go then" he said quietly.
As they entered the restaurant Jenny breathed in sharply "This place is really nice" she mumbled.
Nate nodded "Well you deserve the best" he whispered in response as he squeezed her hand.
The waiter pulled out a chair for her and she sat down opposite Nate, "Lets eat shall we, I am starving" she told him.
Nate laughed; Jenny was so refreshing compared to all the other girls at school, it was nice to know that he wasn't on a date with someone who would moan about the fact that the salad had a fattening dressing.

"My party this year is going to have to be better than anyone else's seventeenth" Blair told Serena as she flicked through a photo album.
Serena grinned "Don't worry B all of your parties are awesome, no one would dare to not show up at a Waldorf bash" she reassured her.
"That is true" Blair pondered, there was really only one person she wanted to come to her party and that was Chuck. He was the only person she knew that would dare to miss her party, even if it was just to piss her off.
"You're thinking about Chuck aren't you?" Serena asked noticing her friend's far off facial expression.
Blair eyes flickered over to Serena "No, I wasn't" she stated, not even trying to cover up the fact she was lying.
Serena rolled her eyes "Has he called you since the shopping incident?" Serena asked her.
Blair shook her head "No he's being… Chuck" Blair explained.
Serena nodded understandingly "I see he's just acting stupid. He obviously cares about you; I mean he wouldn't have asked me…" Serena stopped speaking suddenly.
Blair looked at her "Asked you what?"
Serena kept her mouth shut. "Asked you what?" Blair repeated.
"About what you would want for your birthday" Serena finished.
Blair grinned "Huh" she mumbled thoughtfully. "What did you tell him to buy?" she asked.
Serena smiled tapping the side of her noise "Well I think I'll leave that between myself and Chuck" she told her.
Blair clicked her tongue between her teeth "Well I'll find out soon enough, my birthday is only two days away" she said.
"Exactly you'll just have to wait and see" Serena replied.
Serena's phone buzzed and she picked it up, Dan's name flashed across the screen and she smiled "I better get it"
Blair sighed, he might have a cabbage patch doll, but at least Dan was reliable.
"Hey" Serena practically sang down the phone.
"Jenny is on a date with Nate" he said tersely.
"Aw cute" Serena replied.
"It's not cute, what if he like tries to, you know" He muttered.
Serena laughed rolling her eyes "He isn't a rapist Dan" Serena reminded him.
Dan eyes closed why did everyone keep saying that? "Well people can change" he replied.
"Jenny will be fine, I'm sure that Nate is treating her in a very gentlemanly fashion" Serena informed him.
Blair piped up "Yeh he takes you to really nice places, and you can tell Dan that even after three years of dating Nate and I never even had sex" Blair pointed out helpfully.
"You can tell Blair that I find that very reassuring" Dan muttered from the other end of the line.
"Did you only call me to moan about Nate, because if so I might hang up on you" Serena warned.
"No I didn't, I wanted to know if you wanted to come over to mine tonight" He told her.
Serena smiled "I guess I could, let me ask Blair"
Blair waved her hand at Serena "Go ahead have sex with cabbage boy. Leave me here like a lowly spinster. I can spend the night thinking of names for my many cats" Blair muttered.
Serena grinned at her "Don't be self deprecating B, I'll call you tomorrow" Serena promised, telling Dan that she'd be right there.
"You better" Blair mumbled.
Serena opened the door, to be greeted by a certain Mr Bass. She raised an eyebrow at him "Chuck" she said.
"Serena" he replied nodding at her as she walked down the stairs.
Blair looked up and her eyes widened at the sight of him "What are you doing here?" she asked him incredulously.
Chuck smirked "I came to catch up" he informed her.
She gave him a look "Catch up? Is that what you call it these days Chuck?" she asked him getting off of her bed and standing up and folding her arms.
He chuckled "I can call it whatever you like Blair" he replied taking a lock of her hair in between his finger and thumb.
Blair wriggled slightly "You can call it getting out, I am not the type of girl that you booty call, and even if I was, I would at least expect some cheap flowers or chocolates" she told him.
Chuck revealed a box of what looked like cheap chocolates "Well I knew that you didn't come for free" he told her.
Blair rolled her eyes "Chuck I'm not having sex with you, not until you can make some kind of commitment"
Chuck practically shuddered at the word commitment "Why must you make things so hard Blair" he moaned.
Blair laughed cruelly "Because I always get what I want Chuck" she explained as she pushed a kiss on his cheek. "Night, night Chuck" she whispered shoving him out of her bedroom.
Chuck raised an eyebrow at her "You are cruel" he told her.
Blair laughed ruefully "We both are; that's why the sex is so good, I'll see you at school Chuck" she said blowing him a kiss.
He groaned, he hated to say is but he missed Blair Waldorf, he missed her falling asleep in his arms. He didn't like missing a girl, it wasn't his thing but he just couldn't help it.

Nate placed a kiss on Jenny's forehead "Goodnight" he murmured against her skin.
Jenny breathed out slowly, she didn't want this night to end, and it had been so perfect that she found it hard to believe that it was even true.
"Goodnight" she replied leaning forward and kissing his lips lightly.
He deepened the kiss and kissed her languidly as he guided his tongue into her mouth his hand fell onto her shoulder as she placed her palm on his neck.
He pulled back slowly "I'll call you tomorrow, and if you're lucky I might even come by to drop off some of your school work" he told her.
Jenny smiled "I'm not sure that would be called lucky, since I'll have to do some work but I guess seeing you might soften the blow" she whispered.
He nodded "Of course it would" he kissed her cheek "I better go" he said.
She nodded sadly "Yeh, see you later" she replied.
Nate started to walk down the stairs "Nate" Jenny called.
He looked up "I had a really good time tonight" she said smiling as she went in to the loft.
He grinned and carried on down the stairs.
Jenny closed the door and leant against it grinning to herself, she brushed her finger over her lips they were tingling.
"Did you have fun?" Serena asked her from where she was sat on the couch, Dan sleeping by her side.
Jenny nodded "It was great, the movie was really good" she informed her.
Serena smiled "I know what happens when you got to the movies, sat in the back row, making out in the boring parts" she replied.
Jenny laughed "We weren't sat in the back row" Jenny said.
Serena laughed "Dan wanted to wait up for you, to make sure your virtue was still in tact, but he fell asleep" Serena told her.
Jenny giggled "Well you can tell my brother that Nate was the perfect gentleman" Jenny replied. "I'm going to bed, night" she said waving at her.
"Night Jenny" Serena responded smiling at her.
Jenny closed her bedroom door and grinned to herself. If every date with Nate was as perfect as this one had been, she could really see herself falling for him.
