Granny？s　fall。　Hey；　hangovershurt　！

Okay；　kids；　time　for　me　to　take　my　own　advice　and　follow　it　up　with　a　little　dip　in　the　pool。

Which　pool？　Oh；　wouldn？t　you　like　to　know？

You　know　you　love　me。

gossip　girl

birthday　blues

？Happy　birthday　to　me。？　Serena　whispered；　her　voice　hoarse　and　scratchy。　She　slipped　out　of　her

rumpled　canopy　bed　and　yawned　miserably。　She？d　been　miserably　half…asleep　and　half…awake　all

night；　unable　to　doze　off　soundly　with　Henry　cuddled　up　next　to　her。　Nate？s　words　kept　repeating

in　her　head：I　love　you；　I　love　you；　I　love　you。

Sliding　her　feet　into　her　hot　pink　rubber　flip…flops；　she　thwacked　out　of　the　bedroom。There　was

no　need　to　tiptoe？　Henry　was　snoring　heavily　enough　that　she　could　probably　do　an　aerobics

routine　on　the　bed　without　disturbing　him。

The　hallway　was　quiet；　and　pale　early　morning　sun　peeked　in　through　the　massive　windows。　She

lingered　by　the　glass　momentarily；　taking　in　the　view：　the　green　expanse　of　the　wide　lawn；　the

calm　glimmer　of　the　swimming　pool；　the　clear　blue　sky　without　even　a　suggestion　of　a　cloud

overhead。　It　was　going　to　be　another　gorgeous　day；　but　somehow　the　beautiful　weather　just　made

her　feel　more　miserable。

Who　knew　she　had　a　secret　dramatic　streak？

Hugging　her　bare　arms；　Serena　descended　the　grand　main　staircase　down　to　the　marble…tiled

foyer；　surveying　the　party　damage：　glass　tumblers　with　the　sticky　remnants　of　mostly　finished

cocktails　lining　the　entryway　console　table；　stubbed…out　cigarette　butts　strewn　on　the　floor；

abandoned　paper　plates　filled　with　half…eaten　hamburgers　strewn　absent…mindedly　on　the　coffee

table。　Heading　into　the　living　room；　she　glanced　around　at　the　sleeping　partygoers　lolling

list…lessly　on　the　tufted　leather　sofas；　empty　liquor　bottles　lying　defeated　at　their　sides。

Hope　the　maid？s　ing　in　today！

She　studied　the　faces　of　the　sleeping　revelers？dozing　and　peaceful；　not　yet　mindful　of　the　horrid

hangovers　that　were　their　immediate　future。　Everyone　looked　so　sweet　and　innocent。　Only　a　few

hours　before；　they？d　all　joined　in　a　rousing　drunken　chorus　of　？Happy　Birthday。？　She？d

pre…tended　not　to　notice　how　they　mumbled　when　they　got　to　the　？dear　Serena？　part。　Besides　Erik

and　Henry；　the　only　other　people　at　the　party　who　knew　her　name　were　too　busy　upstairs　to　sing。

She　found　a　clean　tumbler　in　the　kitchen　and　filled　it　with　cold　water；　sipping　it　greedily　to　wash

the　taste　of　morning　breath　from　her　tongue。

Yum。

Hopping　up　on　the　counter；　she　perched　for　a　while；　feeling　like　the　last　person　alive　after　a

nuclear　bomb　or　some　other　disaster。　But　the　quiet　helped　her　clear　her　mind。　Today　was　her

eighteenth　birthday；　but　she　wasn？t　thinking　about　what　was　ahead。　For　the　first　time　in　a　long；
