Nate？s　mom　stored　the　cartons　of　Gitanes　cigarettes　her　sister　sent　from　France　via　FedEx　twice　a

month　because　the　ones　sold　in　the　States　simply　did　not　taste　fresh。

？I？m　sure　we　can　make　do；？　she　said；　ripping　open　a　carton　with　her　thumbnail。　？e。？　She

stuck　two　cigarettes　in　her　mouth　like　tusks　and　beckoned　Nate　and　Blair　to　follow　her　out　of　the

kitchen　and　upstairs　to　the　master　suite。　If　anyone　was　an　expert　at　changing　the　mood；　it　was

Serena。　That　was　one　of　the　things　they　loved　about　her。　？I？ll　show　you　a　good　time；？　she　added

goofily。

She　always　did。

The　Archibalds？　vast　bedroom　had　been　decorated　by　Nate？s　mother　in　the　style　of　Louis　XVI；

with　a　giant　gilt　mirror　over　the　head　of　the　enormous　red…and…gold　toile　canopy　bed；　and　heavy

gold　curtains　in　the　windows。　The　walls　were　adorned　with　red…and…gold　fleur…de…lis　wallpaper

and　renderings　of　Mrs。　Archibald？s　family？s　summer　chateau　near　Nice。　On　the　floor　was　a　red；

blue；　and　gold　Persian　rug　rescued　from　theTitanic　and　bought　at　auction　by　Mrs。　Archibald　for

her　husband　at　Sotheby？s。

？Bus　Stop？Some　Like　It　Hot？　Or　the　digitally　remastered　version　ofSome　Like　It　Hot　？？　Serena

asked；　flipping　through　Nate？s　parents？　limited　DVD　collection。　Obviously　Captain　Archibald

liked　Marilyn　Monroe　movies？a　lot。Of　course；　Nate　had　his　own　collection　of　DVDs　in　his　room；

including　a　play…by…play　of　the　last　twenty　years　of　America？s　Cup　sailing　races。　Thanks；　but　no

thanks。　His　parents？　taste　was　far　more　girl…friendly。　？Or　we　could　just　watch　Nate　play　Nintendo；

which　is　always　hot；？　she　joked；　although　she　kind　of　meant　it。

？Only　if　he　does　it　naked；？　Blair　quipped　hopefully。　She　sat　down　and　bounced　up　and　down　on

the　end　of　the　huge　bed。

Nate　blushed。　Blair　loved　to　make　him　blush　and　he　knew　it。　？Okay；？　he　responded　boldly；　sitting

down　next　to　her　on　the　bed。

Blair　snatched　a　Kleenex　out　of　the　silver　tissue　box　on　Nate？s　mom？s　bedside　table　and　blew

her　nose　noisily。　Not　that　she　really　needed　to　blow　her　nose。　She　just　needed　a　distraction　from

the　overwhelming　urge　to　throw　Nate　down　on　his　parents？　bed　and　tackle　him。　He　was　so

goddamned　adorable　it　made　her　feel　like　she　was　going　to　explode。　God；　she　loved　him。

There　had　never　been　a　time　when　she　didn？t　love　him。　She？d　loved　the　stupid　lobster　shorts　he

wore　to　the　club　in　Newport　when　their　dads　played　tennis　together　in　the　summer；　back　when

they　were；　what？five？　She？d　loved　the　way　he　always　had　a　Spider…Man　Band…Aid　on　some　part

of　his　body　until　he　was　at　least　twelve；　not　because　he？d　hurt　himself　but　because　he　thought　it

looked　cool。　She　loved　the　way　his　whole　head　reflected　the　sunlight；　glowing　gold。　S
