I laid on the bed frozen, still I didn't want to move, to breathe. The tear freshly wiped away from my face, everything is leaving me disappearing from the surface. My parents divorce still hasn't been finalized the argue constantly over money and anything else possible. Chuck won't speak to me although I don't want to talk to him either. Colleges were stressful today we get to go look at Yale Blair's dream. I would love to go to Columbia but my easiest option is NYU.
Just then my phone vibrated continuously reading NATE. I slowly answered, "Hi Nate." I sniffed. "Hi Grace are you ok?" He asked me concerned. Nate has really been here for me recently which has been nice... really nice. "If no was an option would that be such a bad thing?" I asked attempting to laugh. "Yeah it would. What happened? Also do you want a ride to Yale with me?" He asked. "Just my parents and Chuck. Yeah I would like that actually." I said smiling and getting up.
"Ok meet me outside Constance in 20." He said as I hung up. I looked through my closet nothing looked good. Nate is just a friend but what if I run into someone whose last name rhymes with ass. I picked out the shortest skirt I could and my whitest blouse with two buttons undone and a beautiful Blazer to match. I hope Nate doesn't get the wrong idea...
I applied my makeup on that matched my outfit and placed my curled hair to one side placing some heels on. Grabbing my bag and and walking to Constance, "Nate where is your limo?" I asked confused. "Uhm..." He said. "Why are you standing outside Bass's?" I said figuring it out. "Nathaniel!" I shouted as he opened the door to see Chuck's stupid relaxed face fall.
"Nathaniel why is she here?" He asked glaring as I got inside and as Nate did. "Oh Charles how offended I am." I said rolling my eyes. "Look you had a ride and you seemed to need one." Nate said sitting between us. "Wait can I sit somewhere you haven't had sex..." He spoke. "Over there..." I stated pointing yet scowling.
I had a scowl on my face and Chuck smirked looking at me, "Stop looking at me like that!" I hissed. "Like what? I hate this as much as you but joy increases as you scowl..." He whispered in my ear smirking. "You caused this remember? Blame yourself for not having this..." I said noticing him looking at my skirt. Nate stuck his earphones in clearly realizing we needed space.
I would of loved space in my own car... "Well just remember you are missing out too..." He said smirking. "Oh you are an ass Chuck!" I scoffed. "I am not the one who purposely wore that to make me...Feel for you..." He teased in a lower tone I gulped. He meant in a feelings sense but I got his other version of what it could mean in my head.
