Jenny was speechless. Chuck was just about to... and she was about to... and now Nate is. Nothing seemed to connect! What if Nate being here was a sign though? Wait, what sign? A sign not to kiss Chuck, or a sign to get back together with Nate? Either way, Jenny's and Chuck's moment was gone. So kissing was probably never going to happen now...

"It is you!" Nate came over and gave Jenny a huge hug. He didn't even notice Chuck, he only was looking at Jenny.

"Yeah it's me..." Jenny hugged back. It felt nice to be held by some one who actually seemed they cared. But it was Nate. They were only friends not, and not a single thing more.

Chuck couldn't stand looking at them. He was... what's the right word? Chuck couldn't find it. He wasn't... jealous! Was he?! No! He's Chuck Bass, he never envies any one else! Never! Until now...

The hug was lasting to long for Chuck, "Nathaniel!" He shouted and split them up and shock his hand, "How are you my man?" He looked back and grinned at Jenny.

When he grinned all the butterflies flew away. It wasn't a, I'm sorry smile, it was one of his sick perverted grins! With that Jenny was very happy they didn't kiss. Because in the end he was always going to be Chuck Bass, player and hater. And Jenny didn't want to be in a collection of all the hearts he's broken. That wasn't her thing.

Nate gave Chuck a weird look. He had no idea why Chuck was here, more less why he was with Jenny, "Hey Chuck! What's up?" He smiled at the both of them, then looked back and forth, "What are you two doing here?" Now he gave Jenny a concerned and confused look.

Why did every automatically assume Jenny wasn't okay?! Who cares if she's with Chuck? She can take care of herself. For Pet's sake she survived living with a sycophant model who burned all her designs! She could handle herself around Chuck. Well maybe not if he became Mr. Sweet Guy again, then Jenny might of some problems controlling herself.

Jenny wanted to show Nate she wasn't a baby, but she didn't want to make Chuck think she still wanted him any. So she propped up her shoulders, smiled, looked at Chuck, and looked back at Nate. That's what you did when you wanted to take seriously, right? Eh...

"We're great!" Jenny said pushing past Chuck to get closer to Nate, "I was coming here with Jonathan and Eric, then he showed up," She rolled her eyes, giving Nate the sign she was talking about Chuck.

A very heavy weight just was lifted off Nate's shoulders. He thought he was going crazy. Because for a second there, he thought Jenny and Chuck might... You know. Like each other! That, thankfully, wasn't the case. Or at least Nate was trying to see it that way. But he suspected by how calm Jenny was, something more was going on.

"Well I'm actually really happy to see you..." Nate said giving her a genuine smile, and looking at the soul he foolishly let go of.

"Well I'm happy you're happy to see me," Jenny looked down like a shy kid on their first day of school, "I mean us!" She added in as fast as could before either one of them thought she had any feelings for Nate.

Chuck smiled to himself. So Jenny didn't like Nate any more! Well maybe that wasn't the case, but at least she didn't want any one to know. Even better, she didn't want Chuck himself to know.

"So Jenny doesn't want me to know she likes another guy..." Chuck thought himself grinning, "Witch means she still has the urge to kiss me, and for me not to give up..." He let a laugh slip. It was weird, but he was happy Jenny still wanted to have him want her.

Nate ignored Chuck's laugh and smiled back at Jenny, "So why I said I'm actually happy to see you, besides for me just being happy to see you, is because my grandfather is having a party tonight and well," He tried looking like he really didn't want to ask her the question, "I thought I'd have to go dateless... but since you're here..."
"What?! Are you asking me to be your date Nate?" Jenny bit her lip so she wouldn't laugh at the stupid rhyme she'd just made. It was an accident but still, it was funny. Maybe she found it too funny...

Chuck made certain to laugh as loud as he could, so Nate and Jenny would feel uncomfortable. Maybe even make Jenny laugh too. Make her admit she found it stupid and funny. He gave her a smile to urge her to laugh even more.

Jenny tried to ignore, but smiled at him. Ten seconds ago she hated him again, but now she just had to smile! Chuck was putting some kind of spell over her, and she was starting to like the feel of it. Then there was Nate though, he turned Chuck's spell into a curse, and then took it all away.

"So will you?" Nate gave a quick glare to Chuck, "Unless, you don't want me to... Chuck..." He wanted Chuck to know that if anything is going on, to be straight up about it. And not lie behind his back or what ever.

This made Chuck's stomach drop. Was it really that obvious he wanted Jenny? He thought he was being so aloof about it. Only letting Jenny know, not the whole world. It was the first time Nate's been able to see he was secretly sending signals. I mean he did it all the time when Nate and Blair were still dating! Wait.. Blair... That made Chuck instantly become distance.

"I don't care what the hell you two do together." He looked at Nate like he didn't respect him, "Why would I want a Brooklyn girl anyways?" Chuck looked away from Jenny so he wouldn't see her crushed heart. He had to do it though, he couldn't lead her on a path that would just lead her to heart break, and a whole lot of hate.

The smile on Jenny's face disappeared into pure confusion. What did she do? Didn't he still want her? Didn't she still want him? Why would he say that about her? Why wouldn't he look at her! All of this was flying threw Jenny's head as she held back her tears.

Nate on the other hand, was pissed. How dare that Mother Chucker say that?! "I think you should take that back Chuck..." he said trying to be civil.

"Why? What's she going to do? Sue me?!" Chuck let out a soulless laugh, "You have to have money to do that! Remember Nathaniel?"

That was the last straw! Nate didn't care if he hadn't actually spoken to Jenny in forever. Chuck had no freaking right to say that about her! Jenny was amazingly nice, sweet, down to earth, and caring person! So maybe nice, sweet, and caring all fall into the same category... It didn't matter. Jenny was to good to here this crap coming from Chuck, from anyone.

"You really should have token that back..." Nate said, holding back his anger. Chuck just laughed and turned around. Nate grabbed Chuck's shoulder, spun him around and socked him in the face.

The whole lobby froze to watch to young men throw punches at each, while a young girl was frantically trying to stop them. There was no use though, both wanted to fight, needed to fight. Nate wanted to get revenge for what Chuck said. And Chuck wanted revenge... for Nate stealing her...
