gossip girl
all aboard?or not
Tick…tock; tick…tock 。 。 。
Blair stood beneath the giant clock atop the information booth in the middle of Grand Central
Station; searching the crowd impatiently for Nate。 The main hall of Grand Central was mass
pandemonium。 Travelers rushed to their trains; suitcases dragging behind them; seemingly
oblivious to the train station?s elegant beauty。 Grand Central was so much nicer than any other
station in the world; with its marble floors; gold leaf molding; and beautiful sea green mural of the
constellations on the ceiling。 When Blair was little she?d loved searching for the scorpion; her
zodiac sign。
Not that she was really in any mood to appreciate the beauty of the old train station today。 As the
impatient muters streamed past her; Blair felt like the only person standing still in the whole
place。 She checked her watch again?not that she needed to; considering she was standing under
the biggest fucking clock in the world。 Their train was leaving in less than ten minutes; and Nate
wasn?t there。 She hadn?t seen him since she?d toasted the good news about Yale last night with
his dad。 He?d disappeared at the end of the party; presumably to go home and pack。 Of course; he
was bound to bring all the wrong things and forget his lacrosse stick。 He was so totally helpless
when it came to packing。 Blair grabbed her cell from her black…and…white Balenciaga bag and held
down the number three again; sighing as it rang and rang and then went to Nate?s voice mail。
Again。 What was the holdup? She couldn?t wait to just get on that train and watch the landscape
change as they sped away from the city?and everything that she knew。
She straightened the hem of her fitted black Chanel dress; which she wore with black ballet flats
and gold hoop earrings; a chic white hat in her purse。 The outfit reminded her of Audrey Hepburn
inSabrina ; on her triumphant return home from a year in Paris。 Sabrina had left her home in the
suburbs of New York a brokenhearted and shy girl and had returned a stylish; sophisticated; and
mature woman。 Blair had always been stylish and mature; but at Yale she would bee even
more so。 She threw her cell back into her bag; tapping one of her ballet flats against the floor as
she waited; and waited; for her Humphrey Bogart。
Serena hurried through Grand Central; her yellow flipflops slapping the marble as she ran。 She?d
planned on getting to the train station at a quarter to ten to say one last goodbye to Blair; but of
course she?d overslept?the result of one too many flutes of Dom Perignon last night。 She?d
thrown on her white eyelet Anthropologie sundress and her largest pair of vintage white Chanel
sunglasses。 Getting stopped for autographs would only slow her down and make her even later
than she already was。
