Over the next week I left early for school and made sure I was one of the first out at the end of the day. I went to work, meetings and swimming. I even got a diary 'whoo' I had so much I felt like I needed to write these day it seemed to be helping with the stressful senior year. I was sat in the courtyard when I felt someone sit next to me.
"I hate your brother." Blair exclaimed
"What has he done now?" I sigh as as stopped what I was doing.
"Tormenting me as usual. It doesn't help that Serena is being totally annoying. I mean I bestow favours of these tickets to my mothers fashion show and all they care about is Serena being pictured with Poppy Lifton in the Women's weekly."
"Awh, B. No worries, you were made to be Queen. I know you'll figure out a way." I assure her as i put my hand on her shoulder
"I saw your stunt with Humphrey by the way." I rolled my eyes "It may have been one a week since but I have been busy."
"I know you want to make some comment but don't I'm already confused." I huff taking my hand away and covering up my eyes.
"Confused about what? It's Dan Humphrey?" I didn't say anything. "Rosie."
"No, you have enough things to be dealing with right now. besides it's none of your business." I retort.
"Of course it is my business I'm your best friend and right now your my number one, well you've always been number one. Your problems are my problems." I shiver slightly in awkwardness.
"You getting mushy makes me nauseous." I comment to her, her being overly sensitive was not normal unless she had done something wrong and was trying to make amends.
"Then tell me." she urges
"You have to pinky swear on your life you won't tell another soul."
"What are we five?" she rebuffs not thinking it was that bad but it kind of was and I needed a friend right now.
"Blair!" I exclaim
"Fine, here" she held out a pinky "I swear on my life I won't tell anyone ever." she promised "Now tell me."
"I think I might have feelings for Dan." I admitted
"You what?!" she yelled causing people to look at us I shushed her "Sorry. You and him. But he just broke up with Serena."
"I know that. But when I kissed him, it was just...." I shake my head
"You are certifiably insane Rose Bass. What about Girl Code, you can't date ex's" I scoff
"You also can't sleep with best friends boyfriend or sleeping with your best friends brother. I think girl code went out of the window years ago. Besides it's not like we dating, I've been avoiding him while I try to get my head sorted out." I retort rolling my eyes.
"Okay, maybe you're right. You're still coming tomorrow night right." she admitted then questioned stupidly
"Of course. I wouldn't miss it."

Blairs day had gotten worse, she dragged me out of school and back to hers to vent.
"Don't go to high school Dortoa. The girls are spoiled stupid and ungrateful. Well aside from Rosie but one snap shot with a socialite and it's all Serena, Serena, Serena!" she whined as she still had her painful death grip as we sat down
"Some tea will calm your nerves." She poured some out for the both of us.
"Can I have some ice please, Blair has a fierce grip." I massaged my bruised wrist from her death grip which she had only just released. Dorota rushed off and brought me back an ice pack
"Don't they know that without me they'd never see the inside of a fashion tent." Blair seethed "They'd be stuck behind he barricades with PETA. In fact I will leave them outside with PETA. Maybe that'll teach them some manners." She grabbed the meeting chart for the fashion show.
"Somethings different. Who put Serena and that Poppy person in the front row? And these socialites? Someone changed this chart. This chart that my mother asked me to do. Who changed it?!" she yelled furiously and i rubbed my ears. She was pissed and unfortuanly I was getting the brunt of it.
"Miss Eleanor say Miss Jenny change." Dortoa replies. I groan shrinking in my seat. Why? Just why?"
"Jenny Humphrey? I guess she didn't learn her lesson last year. I guess she needs a refresher course." she started smirking and that was never good.
"Blair please don't." I pleaded with her.
"Worry not, my phoenix. Worry not." That made me worry even worse.
"I need some pain killers, a spare eye mask and a nap to get rid of this seething migraine." I groan. After I had my tea Dorota kindly gave me what i asked for and I commandeered one of the spare rooms. When I woke up I stumbled down stairs
"Ah Rose, Blair told me you were upstairs."
"I had a migraine." I replied going to my bag and taking out a scrunchie and tying up my hair. "Where's Blair, she said she would wake me up?"
"Oh she left an hour ago." Eleanor responded looking over her work.
"Rose, can i speak with you?" Jenny asked
"Yeah, come on." I went into the kitchen, it was empty and I got a bottle of water. "What's up?"
"Where did you get that bruise?" I looked down at my wrist.
"This is what happens when you're Blair's only ally and she is seething." I tell her then gulp down have the bottle of water, the coolness of it soothed me a little
"Blair did that?" she exclaimed quietly
"Not on purpose, she doesn't know her own strength. Plus she was furious. Serena, the minions and now you with the seating chart." I list of all the things that had caused monster Blair to surface
"I didn't know." i shrugged "Please help me?"
"How? Blair is furious and out for blood. She is seeing red and nearly every other analogy for fucking pissed." I retort I so was not in the mood and just wanted to be back in bed
"But I was only trying to help."
"I can't help you, I have enough things on my plate, this is your mess, you clean it up." I walked out.
"Eleanor, is it alright if I sleep over?" I wondered
"Yes, of course Rose just let Arissa know." I nodded and went to talk to my guardian. Late on I heard the elevator, I knew that Eleanor and Laurel had left and wouldn't be back for a bit so I presumed it was Blair. I headed for the top of the stairs. It was Rufas and he was here to collect Jenny. Blair glanced back at me with a smirk. I was too tired for this shit. I headed back upstairs and Blair came up.
"I think that went well."
"That was pretty tame for you." I comment sitting on her bed
"Well sometimes that is the best way. Come on, I bought some our favourite chocolates, we can watch breakfast at Tiffany." she smiled going in the bathroom to change while I set up her laptop and put the disk in.
