Serena's POV

I woke up to the sound of my baby girl crying. It's been really hard parenting a two month old by myself. I wish I told Nate before I moved, but that was a year ago. It's too late. I miss him more and more everyday, and now I have his baby. But now Im on the other side of the country and he's back in New York probably moved on. Every night before I go to sleep I hesitate to call and tell him how much I love him, but I never do. He's better off without me I'm sure.

Nate's POV

   At work today I volunteered to go to San Francisco for a work meeting, because I knew Serena was living there now. I know it's a big city and there was a very slight chance that I would see her, and she probably wouldn't want to see me anyway, but knowing that I would be close to her sounds so perfect. I just want to know that she's okay.
I got back to my flat and started to pack. I wanted to look my best on the off chance I actually saw her. She always looked incredible, she is incredible. I can't believe I let her slip away. I went to bed and tried to get some sleep before my flight tomorrow.

Serena's POV

It was 2:00 AM, I just put my daughter back down. I tried not to cry, but I couldnt help it. I cried because I was overwhelmed, I was sleep deprived, I was alone, I was raising mine and Nate's daughter without him. I would do anything in the world just to have him here with me. I cried myself to sleep until I heard my baby girl crying again at 4:00 AM, then 6:00, then I just decided to get up for the day.

Nate's POV

   My alarm went off at 6:30 and I was getting ready to leave. I went through my drawers to make sure I didn't miss anything, and I found my blue button down Ralph Lauren shirt, the one that Serena would always wear. I obviously couldn't wear it because it will never look that good on me, but I brought it as a good luck charm I guess, because it still smelled of her sweet, desirable scent.
**a few hours later**
   I has just arrived in San Francisco. It was a rough flight but it will be worth it when I see Serena. I got a taxi to take me to my hotel and got checked in. I called Blair.
N- "Hey B, do you know where I could find Serena at all?"
B- "Well Nate, I'm not going to give you her address but she lives near Union Square because of the shopping and she works at Calvin Klein as a model, I wouldn't be surprised if you saw her walking around golden gate park, there's a little cafe there.
N- Great Blair thank you so much.
**end of convo**
   I know where I need to go. After I made sure I looked perfect I got a taxi to take me to Union Square. It was similar to times square in new york, but everything was designer stores. I started walking to the Calvin Klein department store. Sure enough as I passed it, there was a huge picture hanging in the window of the one and only Serena Van Der Woodsen, with two other models standing beside her, whose beauty didn't even compare to her's. I stopped to admire it only for a second, and I kept on walking.
   What else did Blair say? Didn't she say something about Golden Gate Park? I looked for the nearest taxi and hopped in, telling the driver to take me there. It was only a few miles away. I walked around the gorgeous park for a little bit, and within minutes, I saw her. That stunning long legged princess with her wavy golden locks, sitting at a table staring at a laptop, with her cute glasses on that make her look so smart and chic. But what's that next to her? A stroller? Our eyes locked and I felt like the whole world stopped spinning.

Hey guys hope you enjoyed the first chapter! Sorry it was kinda short i'm not very good at starting books. Also I picked her to live in SF because I went there a year ago and it was amazing and unique and seemed like a good spot for this story. Some parts might be in NY too, I'm not really sure what I have planned but I love Serenate and I hope u do too!
