Graduation brunch with the girls consisted of stares and pointing. Gossip Girl broke the story that Serena had been arrested.

"Ever since Gossip Girl broke my arrest, it's everywhere. Do you know, Eric found in Pravda." she told us

"You're famous because you got arrested, cheers." I groan slipping on my sunglasses. I had a raging migraine.

"Of course this happened to you." Blair comments

"I just can't wait for this day to be over. End of high school means end of Gossip girl." S huffed and i took some painkillers

"She's plagued you more than anyone. You were her first blast. Ninth grade if I remember correctly?"

"Yeah, the white dress with the rain and a recently docked aircraft carrier." I commented wincing slightly

"Yeah, but her big news was you princess." Serena retorted

"Please, don't remind me you'll make my migraine worse." I rubbed my temples

"Let's hope my mug shot is the last thing shiver prints about me." S hoped, yep she just joined it for all of us, something was bound to happen now.

"On the bright side, Gossip Girl does not report on college so this is your last day to be under her rule." Blair smiles

"Can you take my mind off me? Talk about anything?"

"I'll be right back, I need the ladies." I left and when i came back the three of us left to a bunch of paparazzi.

I slipped on my gown and went to find my boyfriend, I was thinking he would be with Vanessa since she was going to document the whole thing but I actually spotted him in the courtyard.

"All on you're lonesome, whatever for?" I pout

"I'm not. I'm waiting to approve a special insert for the program. Turns out my name was left off the list of graduates. Fate sure knows how to run with the bit"

"Well, you're special." I chimed

"Mr Humphrey." he was handed a small card

"We apologise for the inadvertent  omission of Daniel Humphrey from the graduation program. He is indeed graduating. Congratulations Don!" I started laughing "It's perfect." the boy left

"Yay Don. So next year you're attending NYU with yours truly, how are you feeling? I know it wasn't your plan."

"Plans change. Besides now there is no need for a long distance relationship." he shrugged wrapping his arms around me

"Humm, just as I was getting used to the idea, the surprise visits, phone sex each of us cancelling on the other because our workload is piling up." I say slipping my arms around his neck

"Yeah, now we can do it face to face." I giggle

"Everyone let's line up so we can make our way down." Ms Queller called and we pulled away.

"girls on one side boys on the other just like we practiced." I went to take my place as one of the front of the line. Sadly I was not sitting with the others. B for Bass mean I was front and centre. We made our way down to applause and took our seats. Ms Queller came up on stage.

"Dear friends, colleagues, as we stand here today we bear witness to a bright new beginning..." I glanced down at my fathers watch and mess with it. He was here today, maybe not in person but he was here. Phones started going off. I took mine out and looked at it

Not so fast. You're not graduating until I give you my diplomas. Mine are labels and labels stick

Nate Archibald: Class Whore

Dan Humphrey: The Ultimate Insider

Chuck Bass: Coward

Rose Bass: The Queen

Blair Waldorf: Weakling

And as for Serena van der Woodson after today, you are officially irrelevant

Congratulations everyone you deserve it xoxo Gossip Girl

" Please join me in welcoming the class of 2009. Class please stand." Ms Queller stated, I looked backwards at my friends who looked a little shook. Then at Chuck who was looking at me.
