“She　was　knifed　one　night　dealing　drugs；”　Kati　whispered　back。　“I

heard　she　had　plastic　surgery　in　Europe　this　summer；　but　they

didn’t　do　a　very　good　job。”

Mrs。　McLean　was　reading　out　loud　now。　Serena　sat　back　in　her　chair；

crossed　her　legs；　and　closed　her　eyes；　basking　in　the　old　familiar

feeling　of　sitting　in　this　room　full　of　girls；　listening　to　Mrs。　M’s　voice。

She　didn’t　know　why　she’d　been　so　nervous　that　morning　before

school。　She’d　overslept　and　gotten　dressed　in　five　minutes；　ripping

a　hole　in　her　black　stocking　with　a　jagged　toenail。　She’d　chosen　her

brother　Erik’s　frayed　old　shirt　because　it　smelled　like　him。　Erik　had

gone　to　the　same　boarding　school　as　Serena；　but　now　he　was　away

at　college；　and　she　missed　him　terribly。

Just　as　she　was　leaving　the　apartment；　her　mother　caught　sight　of

her　and　would　have　made　her　change　her　clothes　if　Serena　hadn’t

been　so　late。

“This　weekend；”　her　mother　said；　“we’re　going　shopping；　and　I’m

taking　you　to　my　salon。　You　can’t　go　around　looking　like　that　here；

Serena。　I　don’t　care　how　they　let　you　dress　in　boarding　school。”

Then　she　kissed　her　daughter　on　the　cheek　and　went　back　to　bed。

“Oh　my　God；　I　think　she’s　asleep；”　Kati　whispered　to　Laura。

“Maybe　she’s　just　tired；”　Laura　whispered　back。　“I　heard　she　got

kicked　out　for　sleeping　with　every　boy　on　campus。　There　were

notches　in　the　wall　above　her　bed。　Her　roommate　told　on　her；　that’s

the　only　way　they　found　out。”

“Plus；　all　those　late…night　chicken　dances；”　Isabel　added；　sending

the　girls　into　a　giggling　frenzy。

Blair　bit　her　lip；　fighting　back　the　laughter。　It　was　just　too　funny。

If　Jenny　Humphrey　could　have　heard　what　the　girls　in　the　senior

class　were　saying　about　Serena　van　der　Woodsen；　her　idol；　she

would　have　punched　their　lights　out。　The　minute　Prayers　was

dismissed；　Jenny　pushed　past　her　classmates　and　darted　out　into

the　hallway　to　make　a　phone　call。　Her　brother　Daniel　was　going　to

totally　lose　his　shit　when　she　told　him。

“Hello？”　Daniel　Humphrey　answered　his　cell　phone　on　the　third　ring。

He　was　standing　on　the　corner　of　Seventy…seventh　Street　and　West

End　Avenue；　outside　Riverside　Prep；　smoking　a　cigarette。　He

squinted　his　dark　brown　eyes；　trying　to　block　out　the　harsh　October

sunlight。　Dan　wasn’t　into　sun。　He　spent　most　of　his　free　time　in　his
