damn；　and　end　the　school　year　as　the　girl　everyone　most　admired。

Not　that　she　wasn？t　already　the　girl　everyone　most　admired。　She？d　always　had　the　best　clothes；

best　bags；　best　fingernails；　coolest　hair；　and　by　far　the　best　shoes。　But　this　time　she　wanted　to　be

admired　for　her　courage；　independence；　and　intelligence。　And　being　senior　speaker　at　graduation

was　definitely　part　of　that　package。　Right　now　Vanessa　Abrams；　Blair？s　unlikely；　shaven…headed；

black…wearing　roommate；　was　back　at　Constance　nominating　Blair　for　senior　speaker。　But　as　usual；

that　sneaky　bitch　Serena　had　to　go　and　fucking　copy　her。

The　tricky　part　of　it　was；　no　one　actually　campaigned　to　be　senior　speaker。　And　usually　there

wasn？t　even　a　vote；　because　usually　only　one　person　got　nominated。　Being　senior　speaker　was

one　of　those　things　that　justhappened　？another　mysterious　Constance　Billard　tradition　that　no　one

ever　quite　understood。　Things　were　bound　to　get　a　little　interesting　now　that　two　girls　were　about

to　be　nominated。

Especially　these　two。

Serena　understood　instantly　that　Blair　would　think　that　she　actually　wanted　to　be　senior　speaker；

which　was　totally　not　the　case。　But　how　could　she　defend　herself　when　Blair　wouldn？t　even　look

at　her？　Unable　to　resist；　she　pointed　at　the　goth…wears…white　Morgane　Le　Fay　dress　in　Blair？s

hands。　？Oh　my　God；　that　would　look　so　amazing　on　Vanessa。　That？s　who　it？s　for；　right？？　she

asked　with　a　bright　smile。

Oh；　so　you　think　it？s　okay　to　talk　to　me？Blair　thought。Wrong　。　Unable　to　muster　a　succinct

spoken　reply；　Blair　shrugged　and　carried　the　dress　over　to　the　makeshift　register　set　up　on　a

banquet　table　near　the　door；　paying　for　it　with　one　of　her　three　platinum　credit　cards；　which　were

paid　off　by　her　mother？s　accountant；　Ralph。

This　isn？t　going　to　be　easy；　Serena　thought　with　a　theatrical　sigh。　？I？m　not　in　the　mood　to　buy

anything　anyway；？　she　added　out　loud　and　glanced　around　for　Nate。　Fighting　with　Blair　was

always　so　exhausting。　Especially　when　it　involved　being　madly　in　love　with　Nate　Archibald。

Or　at　least；　pretending　to　be。

A　funny　thing　happened　at　the　yale　club

？So　good　to　have　you　with　us；　Miss　Waldorf；？　the　Yale　Club？s　uptight　concierge　greeted　her。　？If

you？ll　just　follow　me；　Dominick　will　tend　to　your　luggage。？

？Thank　you；？　Blair　replied　graciously；　pleased　with　herself　for　having　made　Chuck　call　and

pretend　to　be　her　father；　booking　her　a　suite　only　minutes　before　she　arrived。　Of　course；　she　could

have　asked　her　dad　to　call　himself；　but　he　was　in　Germany　buying　a　plane　or　a　car？she　wasn？t　sure

which？for　his　new　French　boyfriend；　Giles；　and　she　didn？t　want　to　bother　him。

The　Yale　Club　lobby　was　businesslike　and　unfussy；　with　a　black…and…white　marble　floor；　white

walls；　and　a　few　Yale…blue　wing…back　chairs　scattered　about。　Blair　kept　her　chin　up　as　the　staff

scurried　about　with　her　bags　and　keys；　imagining　she　was　Elizabeth　Taylor；　back　in　the　days　when
