CASSIDY AND AUBREY MADE THEIR WAY TO BLAIR'S BEDROOM TO RANT ABOUT THEIR ISSUES.
"do you guys not know how to knock?!" blair gasped. "sorry" aubrey sighed, laying on the edge of the bed while cassie laid in the middle.
"whats going on with you?" blair asked. "you know how ryan and juliet broke up?" aubrey asked, "yes thank god, hated her" blair smiled.
"well, i've been gaining feelings for ryan" aubrey pressed her lips together. "what?!" blair and cassie gasped. "we've gotten so close, since we live together and have a kid together, and i don't wanna screw it up for mine and asher's sake" aubrey sighed.
"just go for it a, whats the worst that can happen?" blair asked while cassie laid her feet on a lump on blair's bed. "hey b? why is there a lump on your bed? and why is it hard?!" cassie kicked the lump and it screamed, and aubrey and cassie did aswell.
aubrey ripped open the covers to see chuck bass. "oh my god, ew!" cassie gagged as she grabbed aubrey's hand and the two ran out of the house.
cassie and aubrey walked around the campus of columbia, when all of a sudden aubrey stopped. "aubs, whats wrong?" cassie asked. "ryan and juliet, why are they talking?" aubrey asked in worry, "hes probably yelling at her" cassie assured her friend. "he hugged her, and has his arm around her" aubrey groaned.
"oh aubs, i am so sorry" cassie put her arm around her friend but she shrugged it off. "lets just walk"
cassie and aubrey walked inside the campus to find serena and blair talking.
"there are as many feelings between me and chuck, as thoughts in levi johnsons head" blair argued. "whats going on here?" cassie asked, furrowing her brows.
"blair and chuck hooked up" serena told the girls, "oh you know about this morning?" aubrey asked and blair gave her a look. "you did it this morning too?!" serena raised her voice.
"quite a lot of judgment from you elizabeth taylor" blair stated. "hey! colin and i had a good talk this morning and he wants a real relationship too.
"wait wait colin our professor?!" aubrey gasped, pulling cassie inside and shutting the door. "yes!" serena smiled.
"i saw you get into that cab serena! do you forget what happens to you on vacations?! you have no willpower!" blair yelled. "and you do?" serena stated.
"this feels personal, come on aubs!" cassie left with her best friend.
the two girls hung out at a local ice cream, while aubrey ranted to her friend. "why is everyone else getting everything i've ever wanted?! blair, serena, juliet! why am i not good enough?!" aubrey rested her head on the table. "hey, listen to me. you are good enough, my brother's just a little wonky in the head, he was born different" cassie laughed but noticed her friend wasn't laughing. "hey why don't we go to the ballet tonight, you'll be my date" cassie winked.
"i don't feel like it" aubrey mumbled. "nope end of discussion, your coming, deal with it honey!" cassidy winked at the blonde before leaving.
later on that night cassidy and aubrey entered the ballet, one happy and the other..
"lets go get us some drinks!" cassie pulled aubrey towards the drink table and grabbed two. "stop being a weirdo honey, its free drinks!" cassie enthusiastically smiled, "alright pass one" aubrey gestured to the ones in cassie's hand.
"oh hon, you misunderstood, these are for me" cassie drank the two and went for her third and fourth.
"i have proof that serena vanderwoodsen is having an affair with her professer" cassie and aubrey overheard juliet say.
"how does she know?" aubrey whispered to her best friend who was still drinking.
"dean ruther, may i have a moment with you?" blair approached with nate behind her. the girls decided to go check out whats going on.
"actually this does concern colin aswell, hes the one in the photos with serena" madelyn spoke up. "is that why you resigned today?" the dean asked.
"although i was involved with a student, its no ones business who that student is, all that matters is that the responsibility is mine. i took it, by leaving my post." colin stated.
while the dean was talking to colin, cassie snatched the photo drive and stuffed it in her drink. "hey!" madelyn spoke up. "oops!" cassie covered her smile.
"dean ruther, you don't even need to look at the photos because i'm the girl in them not serena" cassidy stated.
"why would i jeopardize my fame and reputation by lying?" cassie made a point. "if i could say something, cassidy's story is true, because i keep tabs on who she dates, because they could never be better than me" nate added to which madelyn gasped.
"miss sharp, miss rivers, i can't believe anyone if there's no proof" the dean stated. "there was proof, well until cassie drowned it." madelyn yelled and cassie grinned.
the group followed madelyn and juliet outside before they could run away. "now its our turn" serena smiled.
"your obsession with serena has grown tiresome" chuck started, "just because you have no money or family, does not make it okay for you to be single white trash females." blair added.
"ryan this isn't me you know that" juliet begged. "i can't even believe anything you say anymore" ryan stated. "except the part where she does her own hair" blair gagged, "and her makeup" cassie added, "its horrendous"
"you tried to destroy my reputation, my friendships, my academic career!" serena yelled. "and you've failed each time, now its time for you to go"
"i'm trying to" juliet cried. "hes talking about columbia" nate added, "you don't even belong there anyway" cassie rolled her eyes.
"if we catch you here again, there will be consequences" aubrey said, "and were really good at payback" cassie smiled, and juliet ran off, leaving madelyn behind.
cassie and nate stayed back to talk to madelyn. "madelyn, was any of this real?" nate asked. "it was nate, i really loved you, but jules is my best friend." madelyn cried. "well if you loved him, you wouldn't have destroyed his relationship or lied to him" cassie stated.
"i never meant for this to happen" she sobbed. "i'm so sorry cassidy"
"your banished aswell" nate said. "now go" he told her. "don't be a wannabe madelyn, it doesn't look good on you" cassie smiled.
"we make a good team don't we cass?" he looked over at the girl, who nodded.
"i'm sorry" cassie pressed her lips together, "about madelyn"
"you have nothing to apologize for, i should be" nate said. "do you ever wonder, what would have happened if she didn't come between us?" nate asked. "but she did nate" cassie stated.
"but she did manipulate you and take advantage so i understand" cassie said. "god i really miss you"
"i miss you so much too" cassie looked him in the eye.
"please, give me a second chance, and i'll try not to screw this up, you up, that is if you don't hate me, but i don't blame you-" nate stepped closer to the girl.
"i don't hate you, i could never hate you, even when i tried my hardest, i just can't"
"then whats stopping us?" he placed a hand on her cheek. "i want you cassie, nothing's going to stop me from wanting you, you can place a bunch of obstacles in between us, but i'm gonna get through them every time"
"nate, i really don't know what to say" cassie choked out.
