Loving you

10) the ball

"Hey upper east siders it's that time of year again when the mere act of descending a staircase means you're a woman that's right Debutante season and from what we hear there's been some changes to the lineup" Gossip Girl's post said.

"I'm actually glad I'm going with Prince Theodore instead of Nate the further we get from the breakup the more self-involved I see he was always so brooding so tortured ugh" Blair said.

"Easy" Mia said. "Sorry M, a girl wants Romeo not Hamlet" Blair said. "Romeo died" Serena said. "Yeah, but he died for something exciting, and I want my debutante ball to be something to die for" Blair said.

"Speaking of M who are you going with" Serena asked. "I don't know dad said I'll find out at the ball" Mia said.

"Hey so uh has Blair mentioned who's escorting her" Nate asked Chuck. "Why, are you having remorse sex fantasies about your ex" Chuck asked. "What, no" Nate said.

"Don't eff with an effer I know that look" Chuck said. "No man it's just every time I see her lately something's different you know she's lighter she's happier she's just less Blair" Nate said.

"She does have a certain glow about her doesn't she" Chuck said. "Alright what about Mia who's she going with" Nate asked. "No idea dad told her she'd find out at the ball" Chuck said.

"All I get with Nate is some rose in the back of a town car but with the Prince I get a security detail and a high-speed chase to the Pierre after it's over" Blair said.

"Ooh I can see you on the cover of hello already" Serena said. "Yeah, well try the New York Times they've chosen me for A Night Out With, and I'm gonna give them the most perfect night out of the year" Blair said.

"Is your mom mad that you're not being presented" Blair asked Serena.

"Well, she doesn't really have a leg to stand on since I found out she used to be my boyfriend's father's biggest fan ew it sounds so gross when you say it out loud" Serena said.

"Your words not mine" Mia said. "Silly me here I actually thought you wanted to go" Blair said.

"I'm here with you two aren't I" Serena said. "Yes" Mia said. "Yes, only cause your grandmother's meeting you here" Blair said. "Blah, blah, blah" Serena said as they went in the building.

Mia was at the store trying on dresses when she came out of the dressing room looking at the mirror. "You look beautiful" Mia heard someone say and turned around smiling.

"Hey Nate" Mia said. "Hey, is that your dress for the ball" Nate asked. "Maybe I haven't decided yet" Mia said. "Well, I think you look amazing" Nate said.

"I uh heard you're going with Blair to the ball instead of Prince Theodore" Mia said. "Yeah, for old times' sake you know" Nate said.

"Nate, I know you, you want her back" Mia said. "You always knew me best" Nate said. "Well, you should go find a tux you know how Blair likes having the last say" Mia said and Nate nodded. "See you at the ball" Nate said and left.
