five…year…olds; who were giggling as they raced each other up the giant stone steps。 Blair
straightened with a sudden thought。 ?But actually; maybe I won?t have to kill my family now。
Maybe an earthquake will just swallow them up。 Except my baby sister; of course。 She can stay。?
She tried to laugh but couldn?t。 Nothing was funny right now。
If picturing her family dead doesn?t make her happy; maybe she should try something less
violent; like meditation。
?Wow;? Serena observed glumly; twirling a long piece of golden hair around one finger; suddenly
feeling sad and serious。 She looked out to Fifth Avenue again; just as a bus with theBreakfast at
Fred?s ad rolled by。 She quickly turned away; not sure why seeing it made her feel jittery and
unsettled。 ?I can?t imagine you anywhere else but right here。 I mean; we?ve lived; like; ten blocks
away from each other our wholelives。 ? Blairhad always been here in the city; right by her side。
Even when they weren?t getting along?which was a lot of the time?it had made her feel better to
know that Blair was just half a mile away; sleeping in the room Serena knew so well。 What would
Thanksgiving or Christmas break be like now with her in California? Or the summers; for that
matter? Serena had always thought they?d be together forever; and now she wasn?t so sure。 She
looked over at Blair; who was deep in thought。
?So; I told you about how the release date of my movie got pushed up; right? I?m totally stressed
about the premiere;? Serena said; deciding to change the subject for both their sakes。 She pushed
her mass of hair over her shoulder。 ?There?s a press conference at the Soho House on Tuesday;
and I?m really nervous。? Blair turned to her friend and took another swig of cold sweet coffee。
Serena certainlyhadn?t told her the release date had been moved up; but that explained why she?d
seen her face and the words ?True Love Never Lies? pass by on three different buses since they?d
sat down。 Serena was staring straight ahead; and Blair couldn?t tear her gaze away from her
perfect profile。 Even though her face was flushed and a little bit sweaty from the sun overhead; it
should?ve been etched in glass and then minted onto a fucking coin。 But however jealous she
might be of the fact that Serena was going to be an overnight sensation; she had to admit she felt
kind of proud; too。 The only thing better than having fame and fortune happen to you was to have
it happen to your best friend。
Excuse me; but what happened to the Blair we all know and love?
?Don?t worry。? Blair turned and gave Serena?s knee a squeeze。 ?You?re going to be
fine。? ?Thanks。 That means a lot to me;? Serena replied slowly; her voice soft。 ?Oh; and will you
e shopping with me for the Met party?? ?Of course。? Blair nodded。 She remembered how
much fun they used to have playing dress…up when they were little; trying on clothes in her room
all afternoon and drinking Campari and sodas with lime; giggling together in the bathroom mirror
