Gossip Girl 2
Whisper Sweet Nothings….
"I thought we were friends…."
"Let me guess, you already know who she is"
"Oh come on Nathaniel, the girl that you were starring at...."
"Next to ugly, fat and stupid? Or...."
"We better head over to the field now Abs" Selena said, picking up her shoulder bag. Abby nodded, pulling her backpack out of her locker. Abby didn't care what kind of bag she had, well she did, but not the way Selena did. She had told Abby once that having a shoulder bag, is completely different from the original backpack, to that piece of information she just nodded because sometimes Selena just needed someone to listen to what she had to say, and if they commented that was fine, if not it didn't really phase her. Abby did both, mostly just listened though, unless it caught her attention. Pulling her un-cool backpack on to her shoulders, Abby shut her locker, and locked it.
"So when is your mom coming home from her trip and where is she again?" Selena asked.
"Paris," Abby simply stated. Her mother had gone back to Ohio to pick up some things and finish everything she needed to do. She told Abby that she'd be back before school had started but she wasn't holding her breath, and now she was three weeks late. Knowing her mom she would be bringing her back something, and they'd go out for dinner and everything would be fine again. As for her Dad, well he's out touring the world and not in a band either. Jacob DaCarr was an actor, romantic comedy called. Kissing in the Rain Abby hadn't a clue what it was about; expect that her dad was one of the main stars, and that he was the brother to the main character and his character, which she caught the name of, was Philip who was falling in love with his brother's girlfriend. She'd see it when it was completed.
As the two of them headed down the stone steps and out the front door, Abby remembered that Selena had, had that lunch with the in crowd today. Selena was probably dying to tell her about it. "So, how did lunch go? I know you're dying to tell me ever since you sent me that text," Abby asked, as they rounded a corner on to Main Street.
"It was good" Selena stated.
Abby actually couldn't think much past that sentence, because she didn't understand why the lunch was so important to her friend. She was trying to think of an appropriate question to ask, since she thought that was what Selena expected from her so she could go into all the details about the social event of the day but then she noticed Selena seemed more involved in her cell phone.
"Well, how did it go? Are you in? Or is there a test you have to do to "prove" yourself." She asked.
Selena smiled, as she heard Abby's question, and tucked the cell phone into her pocket, apparently whatever was interesting her wasn't that important. Abby wouldn't know as her own cell phone had died during third period.
"Oh it was great. Blair, who is the Queen Bee told me that I had potential and that if I come to the party she's hosting on Saturday and show her what I've got she'll definitely consider me as one of her protégés.
Abby nodded, looking around as all her classmates were leaving. The boys from St. Jude's had come out also. She began looking casually around on the off chance she might see Nate, as she had done every chance she had since that day two, three weeks ago when they had collided in the hallway. She couldn't get him out of her head. While she was listening to Selena go on about how the start of her lunch had gone from start to finish-she tried to listen really she did, but her mind kept wandering.
She caught little bits like, why Selena had to wait two weeks to get a lunch to what they were wearing. That's when she saw him heading towards a limo that was parked about a half a block away from where they were. She couldn't help but watch as he talked to the same boy from before on that first day. She realized he had short black hair, pushed to the side, and she had to squint, but she noticed the dark chocolate eyes too. He seemed to be smirking about something, that's when she noticed Nate Archibald looking over in their direction. He made eye contact and gave Abby a grin followed by a wave. She thought she saw him mouth a "hi" and waved back.
