Blair　had　never　met　Vanessa？s　parents；　but　Vanessa　had　described　them　to　her　pretty　well；　and

she　didn？t　see　any　gray…haired；　inappropriately　dressed　hippies　in　the　audience。　She　decided　to

keep　her　eyes　on　the　chestnut　brown　ponytail　of　the　girl　in　front　of　her　in　line；　who　happened　to　be

Rain　Hoffstetter；　whom　she　happened　to　kind　of　hate。　All　Blair　had　to　do　was　make　her　speech；

which　she？d　memorized　so　thoroughly；　she　could　recite　it　in　her　sleep；　and　then　get　her　diploma。

Then　she　was　going　to　have　the　best　graduation　party　anyone　had　ever　been　to；　have　sex　with

Marcus；　take　a　carriage　ride　in　Central　Park；　and　then　he？d　ask　her　to　marry　him。　？　Her　eyes

misted　over　dreamily　and　she　stepped　on　the　back　of　Rain？s　puffy　white　dress；　nearly　knocking

her　over。

Focus；　focus！

One　by　one　the　girls　filed　in　and　seated　themselves　in　the　first　three　rows　of　pews。　Thirty…four

seniors　in　total；　not　counting　the　missing　two。　Mrs。　McLean　stood　at　the　pulpit；　waiting　to　address

the　outgoing　class　and　their　families。　Blair　would　give　her　speech　directly　afterwards；　and　then　the

guest　speaker；　？Auntie　Lynn；？　some　old　lady　who？d　basically　founded　the　Girl　Scouts　or

something；　was　supposed　to　talk。　Auntie　Lynn　was　already　leaning　on　her　metal　walker　in　the　front

row；　wearing　a　poo…brown　pantsuit　and　hearing　aids　in　both　ears；　looking　sleepy　and　bored。　After

she　spoke？or　keeled　over　and　died；　whichever　came　first？Mrs。　McLean　would　hand　out　the

diplomas。

Mrs。　Weeds　crashed　through　the　last　few　chords　of　？Pomp　and　Circumstance。？　？Let　us　pray；？

Mrs。　McLean　directed　somberly　and　bowed　her　head。　The　headmistress　had　bee　deeply

religious　after　her　husband；　Randall；　had　died　in　a　deep…sea　fishing　accident　in　the　Florida　Keys。

At　least；　that　was　the　story　the　girls　told；　along　with　the　one　about　Mrs。　McLean？s　girlfriend；

Vonda；　who　lived　in　Mrs。　McLean？s　country　house　up　in　Woodstock；　New　York；　and　drove　a

tractor。　Mrs。　McLean　had　the　wordsRide　me；　Vonda　tattooed　on　her　inner　thigh。　There　was　even　a

rumor　that　Vonda　used　tobe　Randall；　but　none　of　the　girls　knew　for　sure。

？I　heard　Serena　and　Nate　eloped　to　Mustique。　That？s　why　she？s　not　here；？　Rain　whispered　to

Laura。　？She？s　wearing　her　graduation　dress　as　a　wedding　dress。　Remember　how　we　saw　her　trying

on　that　veil　in　Vera　Wang？？　she　added　knowingly。

？And　I　heard　Vanessa　is　pregnant；？　Laura　replied。　？She？s　up　in　Vermont　with　her　parents；　dealing。

I　guess　she？ll　probably　still　get　her　diploma　anyway。？

Blair　tried　unsuccessfully　not　to　listen；　but　of　course　she　was　dying　to　know　where　Serena　and

Vanessa　were　herself。　Had　Vanessa　gone　off　somewhere　with　Aaron？　Or　Dan？　Had　Serena　and

Natereally　eloped？　It　was　such　a　crazy　da
