“’Bye！”　She　called；　nearly　tripping　as　she　ran　outside　into　the　cold　January　afternoon。

Who　doesn’t　love　a　Hollywood　ending？

b’s　surprise；　take　two

“I　have　to　leave　you　now。　I’m　going　to　that　corner　there　and　turn。　You　must　stay　in　the　car　and　drive　away。　Promise　me　not　to　watch　me　go　beyond　the　corner。　Just　drive　away　and　leave　me　as　I　leave　you。”　On…screen；　Audrey　Hepburn；　as　Princess　Anne　in　Roman　Holiday；　turned　away　from　Gregory　Peck。　The　camera　zoomed　to　Gregory；　who　was　eyeing　her　with　a　mix　of　sorrow　and　awe　and　sadness　on　his　face。　Blair　pressed　rewind　and　watched　as　Gregory’s　face　built　itself　back　up。

She　sighed。　It　was　so　romantic　and　clean　the　way　Princess　Anne　broke　up　with　him。　She　felt　bad　for　Gregory—and　Pete—but；　like　Audrey；　she’d　known　it　was　the　right　thing　to　do。　There　was　no　way　she　and　Pete　could　be　together　when　she　and　Nate　had　always　been　destined　for　each　other。　Pete　had　been　a　charming　distraction；　but　he　wasn’t　her　leading　man。

Blair　turned　off　the　TV　and　glanced　down　at　her　Rolex。　It　was　almost　eight。　Nate　should　be　back　from　Le　Cirque；　where　he’d　been　forced　to　attend　dinner　with　his　parents　before　they　went　off　to　the　opera。　And　Serena　probably　wouldn’t　be　back　from　rehearsal　for　hours。

She　dialed　Nate’s　number。　“Are　you　home　yet？”　she　demanded。

“Yeah；　my　parents　actually—”

“Great。　I’ll　be　over　in　ten　minutes；”　Blair　said。　She　was　having　a　serious　Nate　craving；　especially　now　that　there　was　nothing　to　keep　them　apart。

She　rummaged　through　Serena’s　closet　and　found　a　long　Dries　van　Noten　black　tunic　that　looked　like　it　had　never　been　worn。　Knowing　Serena；　it　probably　hadn’t。　She　pulled　it　on　over　a　pair　of　gray　Wolford　stockings；　then　eased　her　feet　into　her　slouchy　black　Frye　boots。　She　pulled　on　a　gray　beret；　slung　her　large　Lanvin　hobo　bag　over　her　shoulder；　and　ran　out。

Snow　was　beginning　to　fall；　and　Blair　wished　she’d　worn　a　coat　as　she　walked　the　familiar　path　from　Serena’s　limestone　building　on　Eighty…third　and　Fifth　to　Nate’s　stately　town　house　on　Eighty…second　and　Park。　Blair　gingerly　picked　her　way　up　the　icy　steps　and　pressed　the　button　for　Nate’s　room；　relieved　that　he　had　his　own　private　doorbell。

The　buzzer　rang　to　allow　her　in；　and　Blair　gingerly　pushed　the　door　open；　inhaling　the　entryway’s　familiar　scent　of　floor　polish　and　lilacs。　Everything—the　Van　Gogh　above　the　mantle；　the　austere　chandelier　in　the　main　dining　room；　the　white　marble　kitchen—looked　exactly　like　it　had　since　she’d　first　started　ing　to　Nate’s　house　when　she　was　five。　She　took　the　stairs　two　at　a　time　and　burst　into　Nate’s　bedroom。

“Hey！”　Nate　was　seated　at　his　desk　in　front　of　his　Mac　Air。　He　wore　the　moss　green　sweater　Blair　had　given　him　in　high　school。　Back　then；　she’d　secretly　sewn　a　gold　heart　pendant　into　the　inside—the　same　gold　heart　he’d　given　her　from　Tiffany—so　Nate　would　always　be　wearing　her　heart　on　his　sleeve。　“I　have　a　surprise　for　you；”　Nate　said；　swiveling　in　his　Eames　chair　to　face　her。

“Really？”　Blair　asked　uncertainly；　tugging　her　hat　off　and　shaking　her　hair　out　around　her　shoulders。　She’d　had　enough　surprises　for　the　day。

Nate　grinned。　He　couldn’t　wait　to　tell　Blair　what　he’d　decided。　He　hooked　his　fingers　underneath　the　sweater　and　pulled　it　up。

“That’s　the　surprise？”　Blair　rolled　her　eyes；　even　though　she　got　a　little　excited　at　the　sight　of　Nate’s　taut；　tanned　abs。

“No；　look！”　Nate　yanked　the　sweater　over　his　head　to　reveal　a　white　T…shirt　with　a　navy　blue　Yale　insignia。

Blair　gasped。　He　was　ing　back　to　school　with　her？　This　was　way　better　than　any　ring。　“Oh；　Nate！”　she　exclaimed；　throwing　her　arms　around　his　neck。

Nate　smiled　happily。　He　couldn’t　believe　it　had　taken　him　so　long　to　realize　that　he　and　Blair　were　meant　to　be　together。　Sure；　she　could　be　a　pain　in　the　ass；　but　she　was　his　pain　in　the　ass。　And　after　his　conversation　with　Chuck　the　other　night；　college　suddenly　seemed　like　a　good　option。　He　couldn’t　sail　around　the　world　forever。

“I　don’t　want　to　say　goodbye　to　you　again。　Maybe　I　can　even　get　placed　in　your　dorm。”　He　grinned。　He　still　couldn’t　believe　how　easy　the　decision　had　been。

“I’ll　arrange　everything；”　Blair　said　matter…of…factly。　She　couldn’t　believe　how；　after　her　shitstorm　of　a　year；　her　life　had　finally　settled　down。　Everything　was　perfectly　in　place。　“We’ll　get　an　apartment　together。　Then　we　can　have　a　huge　party　and　I’ll　introduce　you　to　everyone！”

Blair　ran　her　hands　over　the　Yale　insignia　across　his　strong　chest。　“I　love　you；　Nate；”　she　whispered。

Looks　like　someone　got　a　Bulldog　for　Christmas。

Vanessa　slammed　down　the　top　of　her　MacBook　Pro　in　frustration。　It　was　now　totally　dark　outside；　and　she’d　spent　the　past　two　hours　sitting　at　the　laminate　counter　in　the　Humphreys’　kitchen；　Googling　Hollis。　She’d　found　out　he　ran　track　in　high　school；　tha
