Is it you I keep thinking of?
Should I feel like I do?
I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv loved Fashion. Even though she sometimes wear simple clothing, she tries to look good in them. She was having a busy morning like usual. She usually had to mail out some clothes she had designed since she had launched her site. It was a huge hit, but the bad thing was that she had a hard time making the dress over and over again but she got used to it. She wanted to make a good impression so she tries to send it quickly once she receives the payment. She haven't had a complaint yet from her clothing. She usually got a lot of good comments and compliments. That's what she loved when it came to fashion. She didn't mind some of the constructive criticism because it would help make her clothing better.

Once she mailed out the dresses, she headed to stores to go shopping. Viv was getting money of her own. She wanted to celebrate the launch of her website. It was a small business that she hoped would expand into a giant empire. She wants everyone to know her and she become rich and famous. She wanted that so bad that she will work hard to get it. She might cheat some ways to get into it but hey, to get what you want, you have to cheat. She learned that early in life. She headed into her first shop. She wished her best friend was there with her to go shopping with her. She wanted someone to help her pick out a cute outfit.

She looked at the racks of dresses. She wanted a cute dress that is sexy but not slutty. Viv tries not to dress slutty. She wasn't a slutty type. She might like to have sex but she had morals. She wouldn't sleep with a guy unless she was dating him and they were dating for a while. She doesn't believe in kiss on the first date. She was more of a traditional girl. She doesn't mind a kiss on the cheek or a peck on the mouth but a full on kiss wasn't acceptable. If a guy tries to kiss her, she would pull away. She didn't want a reputation of being a whore.

Viv found a cute purple dress. She fell in love with it. She headed to the fitting room to try it on. A girl came up to her to offer her some help. Viv nodded and told the girl to see if the dress looked good on her. The girl nodded and sat on a bench. Viv closed the door and slipped out of her clothes and into the purple dress. She glanced in the mirror and fell in with it on her. She opened the door and stepped out. "What do you think?" she asked. "You look gorgeous in it. You should get it," the girl replied. Viv nodded and headed back inside the fitting room. She slipped back into her regular clothes and headed to the register. She paid for the dress and exited the shop.

She was heading to another shop until she bumped into someone. Viv blushed as she looked to see who she bumped into. "I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching where I was....Serena?" Viv questioned. "Hey! What are you up to?" Viv wondered.

[/b][/color] She bend to kiss both her checks and smiled brightly. I’m shopping around town and by the way your bags look you are shopping too. She showed her the bags she had in her hand and sipped from hr coffee again. I was heading to Cartier. I want some necklace.

Now that she had bumped with Viv and she knew they both were doing the same thing she wasn’t about to leave her. She wanted to spend some time with someone she knew and just enjoy the day. She sipped from her coffee again and smiled at her. Are you going to meet someone or would you like to join me? After Cartier she wanted to go to Sacks and get some more clothes. Of course, she was used to go shopping with Blair and shopping with Viv was different but still she knew she was going to have fun. They hadn’t talk for a while and they had things to catch up with. How’s that website of yours doing? Serena had to give her that it was good idea, but if she was selling her clothes on the internet people will think they were high class and if she wanted to get her name known then she will have to open a shop but the work she was doing was amazing and Serena knew Viv worked hard.

Serena wasn’t one on working; her whole life was focused on spending time with her friends and trying to live her life to the fullest. She had thought of getting on the model work and she had been there for a while, getting her name known but people around her hadn’t seen it properly for her, it would make a lot of problems and she was allowed to do what she wanted as long as the thing wasn’t on the press the next day giving her bad reputation. And gossip girl always found a way of making the best of the things a bad thing, even if it was totally innocent. I heard you are hitting on it pretty well and you are making yourself a name. Serena was thinking of doing something someday but as far as she was concerned she was too young now to waste her life that way, she was rich, young and beautiful and have a lot of life ahead of her to think about something serious just at the moment.[/left]

Is it you I keep thinking of?

I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv didn't like shopping alone but sometimes if she was on a rush, then she preferred shopping alone. She wants to hang out with her friends but they were all busy like her. Maybe they could get together tonight and go clubbing. Viv loves to go clubbing or party somewhere. She loves to dress up. She wore one of her dresses she made to a party. Everyone loved it. She remembered when people ask her to make them a dress. She's quite the designer. She had one enemy though. Jenny Humphrey was her enemy. She hated her with a passion.

Viv smiled as she kissed Serena's cheeks on both sides. "Shopping is quite the hobby. It's a fun hobby," she said. She grinned as she listened to Serena talking about heading to Cartier. "I should buy a necklace. Are going to the club tonight?" Viv questioned curiously. She wanted to look sexy and hot for the club but was picky of who she would dance with. She didn't want to dance with some disgusting pervert who only wants sex. She just want a guy to dance with. She didn't want to hook up with them because her fear is getting a sexual transmitted disease. She didn't want a STD. In the Upper East Side, guys can pay for the highest call girls who might have a STD. Viv was careful and wanted to protect herself.

She grinned as Serena invited to join Serena with shopping. "I would love to join. So to Cartiers?" Viv responded. She was happy that she now had someone to shop with. Shopping alone was boring unless she was in a rush. "The website is going great. It took off once it launched. I sold a lot of dresses. About 100 now. I want to expand on more clothing so now I'm going to produce blouses. I'm hoping to have those up on the site by next week," Viv replied. "I'm hoping that once I graduate, I can open up a business then maybe expand into a huge empire," Viv told her. "Yeah. I want to my name to get out. My mom got me an interview with someone who works on Teen Vogue magazine. They loved my designs. I'm really excited," Viv replied cheerfully. Viv was very excited. If she did great at the interview and her clothing end up in the magazine, new doors will open for her.


"So what's new with you?" Viv asked curiously. She wanted some gossip. She wasn't going to post it Gossip Girl, she liked Serena. She just love Gossip. It was one of her favorite things to do. Learning about Gossip about others. She wanted to learn some dirt about some people in case she needed to use it but she doubts Serena had anything mean to say about other people unless they were her enemy. Viv ran her fingers through her soft hair. She wanted some dirt about Little J. She was determined to bring down Little J and have Blair become the Queen B. She loved Blair a lot better than Jenny.

[/b][/color] She laughing taking another sip from her coffee and leading the way to Cartier, she didn’t like to stand there with all people looking at them. I was planning on going clubbing tonight, maybe you will like to join us? Now that she had plans she will have to buy a new outfit for clubbing but if Viv was coming along with them she wasn’t sure she should invite Jenny. They hated each other guts, maybe because they were both trying to become the best designer.

I’m glad the website is going so great. She said. Serena herself had been on the website looking around. I’m doing same thing as always which mean I’m doing nothing at all. Though she had been busy with university things and such, Serena’s life was relaxing and not very busy. Her only preoccupation was being the most beautiful girl around and spending her money in clothes and parties. She modeled sometimes for magazines and she did the catwalk from time to time. University is great but I like better being a model. Her decision of being a model and such wasn’t very popular, they didn’t like for her to being in such a spot because paparazzi followed her trying to bring her down. I’ve been on your website, I thought of buying some clothes. Truth was she didn’t know if she should buy Viv’s clothes, though they were friends Jenny had been her friend for longer time than Viv and wearing something designed by Viv may piss Jenny off.

She was looking for something to wear to the Christmas events of the year, the balls and the Christmas light event which was very popular in New York, also she wanted to look for something cute and comfortable to wear for the ice skating. Do you have something for the Christmas Ball? She was really trying hard to go perfect for the ball, it was the most important event of the year and she had to be just flawless but that was something difficult sometimes. People thought Serena went to bed and woke up as perfect as a porcelain doll, which wasn’t true at all; she had to make a lot of things like everyone else to be as perfect and flawless as she was. The pressure of everyone watching what you were doing or wearing every second of your life and waiting for you to fall down was too much for her sometimes. I was thinking of getting something today, maybe we can look together after Cartier.

She had to look for someone to go to the Ball and she wasn’t sure who was going to be. All the things she had to do start to go around her mind making her feel dizzy, she sipped from her coffee again and tried to breathe deeply to calm herself down. Are you planning on going with someone? Vivienne had to look for someone to go with too because being Elite girls mean they had to set example and being alone at such important events was something they couldn’t allow. I was thinking of asking Dan but he doesn’t like this kind of things much. She had tried for Dan to feel more comfortable around the Elite people but he still didn’t like going to posh parties and such, he much preferred to stay with her at home or some romantic plan or staying at home writing.[/left]

I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv loved to shop. If her family wasn't rich, she would be massive debt but luckily, her family was rich so she doesn't have to worry about the money issue. With her website taking off, she was gaining money faster than ever. After subtracting the material, time and having the website up, she made about 300 dollars already. Only the rich and upper class could afford her designs but that's because she was good. One of the reasons she hated Jenny was because she was competing against Jenny. She wasn't going to share her designs with Jenny. She refuses to be friends with Jenny. Besides, they tried the whole friend thing and it just didn't work out.

If I'm at the same club and if your friends don't mind if I join," Viv responded. Viv wasn't completely sure if she should come. She knew Jenny had a lot of the same friends especially since she was going to be Serena's step sister soon. She knew Jenny would probably end up being there. Should she come anyways? She didn't want drama to start up but everyone seems to love drama. She didn't want to force everyone to chose sides. She hated that when her friends get into a fight and was forced to chose sides. Sometimes, it's just better to keep everyone out of it. Besides, both sides would get hurt either way.

"OH. You Just reminded me. So I was wondering if you and Blair wanted to model some of my clothes? You guys get to chose a free dress for doing it," she told Serena.

[/b]"It's for Teen Vogue and my website,"[/b] she explained. She smiled in giddy as Serena mentioned being on her website and thought about buying clothes. "Really? That's good! That means my clothing designs are really good," Viv said happily. Hearing that made Viv really happy. It was a compliment to her. It meant that her clothes were appealing to the upper class.

Viv thought about Christmas and all the events she's going to. She thought about designing something herself and wearing it but there was so many beautiful dresses already made why should she wear her own? "Not yet. I've been thinking about it though. I already have a vision of what kind of dress I want though. Did you have something to wear for the Christmas Ball?" Viv wondered. She wanted to look gorgeous. Her family wants to make sure she doesn't embarrass her family. Her parents don't always come to New York for Christmas celebrations but they want to make sure that Viv doesn't do anything huge that will land their family name on TV unless it's to promote her clothing line or their business in general.

"That would be fun," Viv responded cheerfully. She loved the holidays. She loved the parties and of course, the drama. She loved drama. She heard the people who had drama in their life usually loves it, and in her case that was true. Sometimes she can cause it. She try to avoid it at her friends parties though. Even if Jenny is at the party, she doesn't want to case a scene and ruin her friends party. Luckily, so far she haven't been in the same parties with Jenny except that one night at the club. She needed dirt on Little J and quick.

Viv wasn't going to ask around though. That's low besides, Jenny's friends with Serena and best friends with Savannah. Viv just wanted to shop. "I'm planning on going with someone. I might go with my one of my male friends if I can't find anyone else. He said I can use him as last resort," Viv explained. She listened then giggled a bit. "But if he cares about you, he would go for you. You should ask him. It would make him feel a bit happy that you're inviting him and not someone else. You should ask him though," Viv said. She smiled at Serena then glanced at the shops around them. Viv was trying to be helpful. She thought if Serena wanted to with Dan and he cared about her, he should go with her. Viv was a bit of a romantic. Sometimes her imagination goes wild and unrealistic things come into her.

[/b][/color] Serena laughed, one thing about being Elite was that you always know everyone and you usually hang with the same people in your circle which limited quite a lot the people you hang on with. We were probably go same place, we are heading to Lobby bar at the Empire Hotel. When they wanted a quite night and catch with the rest they went to the hotel bars and had a few drinks before going clubbing, most of the time the ended partying in one of the suites of the hotel because it was more private and more fun.

Viv asked for her to model for her clothes for Teen Vogue, so that meant she was going for the big companies and try to get herself international. She wasn’t one of turning down a job, much less one a friend offered but if she modeled for her then Jenny could get mad at her for going with the competence. She had really checked the clothes and she loved some of them, still Jenny’s fingers were magical and she had been doing practices with the best, including Blair’s mother. I’ll ask Blair about it, I’m sure we can do it. She will have to tell Jenny too but she was sure Jenny would understand it was her job to model regardless of the clothes she was wearing. She didn’t want to create more conflict between the two of them and she didn’t want for them to get mad with the rest of them which has nothing to do with all this. No, I still don’t, I was thinking of getting something of Blair’s mom, or buying something today, I’ll know when I see it. She laughed it off, Serena was lucky she had to do little effort to be perfect, that pissed a lot of people off sometimes but it wasn’t her business and it wasn’t her fault. Just a little makeup and the clothes, and she was gorgeous and ready, she could probably wear rags and she would still be awesome.

When Viv mentioned asking Dan for the Christmas ball she almost stopped short. She had thought of that and she had discarded the idea knowing Dan will probably give her a big talk about why he didn’t like being surrounded by people who thought nothing of him and that were totally fake with him. She couldn’t blame him, people on her circle was mean to outsiders and didn’t like to get people inside, but they will have to deal with him and he will have to deal with that. You are right you know, I should probably ask him and tell him to join us, it won’t be as bad as he thinks.They will end having fun and he will probably accept after all if she asked him, maybe he was even thinking of asking her. He was going to be an Elite soon so he will have to deal with all the events, the parties, the boring meetings… that made her remember their first event together, the Bass brunch when she was back in the city and that she wanted to avoid so badly, it had been so funny! A smile spread across her face when she remembered that, it hadn’t been so bad after all and now everything was past. Dan had been in some more events after that first one and she thought he had got used to it but he was the same he had always been.[/left]

Viv loved partying with the other Elites. She wanted to come but she didn't want to run into Jenny but it would be a fun fight. The only problem was who would chose who side. She didn't want people to chose sides but she knew that at the end, loyalties are important so the Elites would probably end up splitting up a bit. She was scared that everyone would chose Jenny. Viv thought Jenny was a backstabbing girl but pretends to be everyone's friend. She wanted to show everyone her true colors and want to protect her friends. She didn't want them to get hurt.

"I'll stop by. I love clubbing," Viv told her. Viv loved going to parties and clubs. She loved getting drunk but not too drunk to wear she can't walk and can't control herself. She had a bit of a trusting issues and couldn't possibly have anything horrible up on Gossip Girl like her taking off her top or something like that. She grinned at Serena as she thought about being Elite. She loved being rich because she could do a lot of things but the bad thing is the news editors and journalists trying to find an article to write about to slander her name in the filthy rich world of hers. She couldn't have her family's name be slandered. It would also be bad for her business.

"Wonderful!" Viv exclaimed happily. She was happy that Serena is thinking about the modeling offer. She hoped Blair would come to. She grinned as she thought about what dresses she had that Serena and Blair could wear for the magazine. She was excited that everything was falling into place. She wanted her clothes line to be the best and wanted the most beautiful women to wear it. She chose Serena and Blair because they were her friends but also she thought they were gorgeous. Both of them were unique and that's what she loved about them. Serena could wear anything and she would look amazing. Serena could probably wear a caveman costume and still look gorgeous in it. Blair had gorgeous hair and a lovely smile. Viv absolutely love Blair's style. Blair was always looking amazing everything Viv had seen her.

"I have something in my mind I want. I thought about making the dress myself though but shopping is fun. If I already see it, I shall buy it. Maybe we will find our dream dresses," Viv said. She loved dresses. She loved wearing them, making them, designing them, buying them and having them in general. She would find a reason to dress up and look gorgeous. She wanted to be amazing at the club. She wanted to look gorgeous at the winter ball. Viv had a cute style. It was somewhat sexy but at the same time it could be pulled off as innocent. She wasn't the type to wear the most fashionable in thing. She loved fashion and to her fashion was something that was unique. Everyone has a different style and hers was somewhat preppy.

Viv smiled as Serena told her that she was right. "Dan should be lucky to have a someone gorgeous and sweet like you," Viv told her. Viv thought Serena was sweet and beautiful. She was a bit jealous but not too jealous. Viv had her own things going for her. She had a successful website and her fashion career will take off after the interview. She was going to nail her interview and become nationally known. Then maybe she could start her own business in New York. Sell dresses and design people their own dress for parties. New York had a lot of rich people in it who had parties so she was bound to get some business.

Viv wanted to ask a guy to the ball but right now she had Peter as her back up in case she couldn't find a guy. He needed to be Upper Class or an Elite. She refuses to date anyone that was in middle class or lower class. She always wanted to date a Lord though or a Prince. That would make her very happy. Money is important to her but it's only cause of the status. She couldn't possibly date someone who was poor. Her family would be so disappointed in her not to mention her father might try to break them up and force her to date some guy she barely knows. She rather just make her parents happy plus with a guy who had money meant he could afford dates and clothing.

[/b][/color] Now she had to concentrate on her shopping trip and what she wanted to wear for the ball.

When they arrived to Cartier the door man opened the door for them and greeted them, it was the best to have such attention. As far as you had money to spend there, they will give you the best of attentions just so you will buy something. Of course, you didn’t go to Cartier if you can’t spend money there. I think we should go to Saks to find the dress for the ball but I wanted to buy some rings and necklaces first. Serena walked to the first counter with the ‘Caresse d’orchidées’ collection and saw a ring she loved, an amazing pink gold with a tourmaline ring with the form of an orchid, and next to it there was the necklace. She told the woman to show her the ring and necklace and then called Viv to take a look. I think it will look good with whichever dress I want to wear for the ball.

Viv had said Dan was lucky to have her, but Serena wasn’t so sure about it. They had always problems, mostly confidence problems because she couldn’t help but get too close with some guys and he always suspected. She couldn’t blame Dan though because she lost her virginity with Chace. You know Dan and me, we always have problems. Serena said while looking at the necklace and ring. And it’s always because of me, we can’t trust each other. You know, I did so many things I regret and now with my mom and Rufus getting married and everything…. She left the ring in the counter and just looked at them while thinking of everything that had happened with Dan and her mom and Rufus and when they both heard about it. She didn’t know what to do but she doubted Viv could give her a good advice with that. She doubted even Blair could help her with that, and she knew she had to call Jason for it. He always was there when Serena needed him and his advices were always good.

And you, do you have some name in mind for the ball? She couldn’t imagine why Viv was taking the Dan thing so good when she knew how much she hated lower class or middle ones and most of Serena’s friends were that. It was because Serena hated everything that represented her circle, the narrow minded they had about people outside the circle or protecting their names. I will ask Dan though to come with me but I’m sure he won’t like it. She laughed; she knew Dan was going to put a lot of troubles for the ball but he will end going with her because he loved her and will do everything for her. She went to the next stand telling the woman to save those for her and looked for something more that she liked and found sunglasses near the counter. To Serena, sunglasses were something you will always have to wear, or have them near at least.[/left]

[viviennebrookemays]

Is it you I keep thinking of?
Should I feel like I do?
I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv loved Fashion. Fashion was her life now. She wanted to get to the top and she will take down anyone that was trying to stop her. She started designing clothes a lot and even wore some of her clothes to clubs and such. She didn't want to fall in love because love would only put her behind on her goal. Boys were good to play with but she didn't want a committed relationship. She did want to get married to someone but she didn't want a relationship right now. Maybe in college she could have a boyfriend but not in her senior year of high school.

Once they arrived at Cartier, the doorman greeted them and they headed inside. Viv decided to look around the jewelery hoping to find something that will match any kind of dress. She heard Serena mention something about something looking good with any dress so Viv went over to her and looked at the necklace and ring. "They're gorgeous. I agree. They would look good with whatever dress you end up wearing for the Christmas Ball," Viv agreed. Viv wanted to get something beautiful here but she couldn't decide what she liked. She liked everything in the store and could never decide what she want. She was a bit indecisive.

"Well...every couple have their problems. No couple is perfect. You guys just have to work past. That's easier said than done though," Viv told her. She knew that they had their problems but what couple doesn't have their problems. She wondered what problems her and her boyfriend would have if she ever had a boyfriend. It would probably be that she would put her goal and career first and love second. Love will always be second to her. Money was important to her and she doesn't want to rely on some guy to carry her. This was the twenty-first century. Not Nineteenth century.

"Well...everyone has something that they regret. The past is called the past for a reason. Just learn from your regrets and keep moving forward," Viv told her. She knew that from experience. She made a lot of mistakes now but she was over them now except one. She wasn't sure if she regret that one secret or not. She wondered if she decided to keep it but then give it away, what would have happened? She wouldn't know and will never know. She didn't know if she made the right decision but she didn't want anything to stop her from her career. She wanted to be successful and she will not let anything stop her.

"Well...not really. I'm not really interested in guys or dating but my parents want me to go with someone. You know how it is. Everyone watching you and making sure you don't make the family feel embarrassed," Viv explained. She loved being rich and an Elite but somethings were bad about it. She wished her parents didn't care who she go with. Love was pointless. She wanted to be loved and want someone to sweep her off her feet but she needed to think of her future. Boys come and go but being successful was more important. She was a complicated girl that contradict herself a lot.

Viv usually don't like lower or middle class people but Serena liked Dan so she would have to put up with him. Besides, at least Serena had someone. "Well. Dan loves you, so he'll go for you," Viv told Serena. She grinned then glanced at all the jewelry. She already had a lot of necklaces but she thought you could never have enough. Lets face it, jewelry is important to an outfit. It's never complete without some necklace or earrings.

Lyrics: Fleurs Du Mal by Sarah Brightman

[SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN]

[/b][/color] She needed to focus on something outside her mess with Dan, and Jason had always done a good job on keeping her entertained. “I don’t know… I just think this time love won’t be enough.” Hadn’t they learned that before? They had tried so many times and they had filed. “Of course everyone has things they regret.” Of course, she wasn’t the exception, she had things she regretted, Dan had things he regretted, the whole world had things to regret but that wasn’t the problem.

When Serena heard about her family feeling embarrassed for not having a partner to go to the ball she had to laugh. It wasn’t her case though, her mother had never worried about her being alone in some event or something because she was always surrounded by her friends and people never really cared about who she was with or not, unless they wanted dirty gossips. “You are not? Well that’s new” Everyone had heard the rumors about Viv and her liking guys a bit too much, she was called the slut back at her school days and now she was trying to get on the good way… In Serena’s opinion, once a slut, always one, there are things you just can’t stop doing, you will be able to get free of them for a while but you will come back doing it, just as her and the alcohol, or her and Nate. “I don’t really think your mother will care of you don’t go to the ball with someone, it’s not like being presented in society or something.” In fact people talked about you more when you had someone with you, they always wondered who he was, why he was there and what kind of relationship you have with him, if you go alone they will wonder why are you single but the gossip won’t go as further as that.

Serena laughed when Viv said Dan loved her, well sure he did but sometimes that wasn’t enough, he won’t do some things not even for love. “That’s not a guarantee you know, of him doing it.” Though she could hope and if Dan was as eager to get her back as he seemed then he won’t even think his answer, he would say yes no matter what. Serena had to say she very much loved Dan, and she would do a lot of things for him but he was always the one making sacrifices for her and not the other way around, she couldn’t see a way to change it anyway. She looked at the sunglasses in front of her and tried them on, she liked the way they looked in her face and smiled to her reflect in the mirror. “And he is always doing things for me, that’s another one…” After all when she was with Dan she knew everything was worth it because he made her feel amazing, he made her feel especial and amazing, there was no way she won’t stop betting on chances on their relationship, after all that was everything love was about.[/left]

Is it you I keep thinking of?
Should I feel like I do?
I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv had nobody but she enjoyed being single. She loved the freedom she got and that she could do anything she wanted to. She loves having fun. She didn't want a guy to take away her freedom. She wouldn't be able to handle that. Especially since she's always busy and have events. She was always worried that the guy she ends up with will be the jealous type and have a leash around her neck. She didn't have time for a guy. She didn't get how some people can make time for school, career, and relationship. She barely had time with school, career, events, and friends. A relationship would stress her out.

"You should get it," she told Serena. Viv smiled at her then continued to look around until her eyes set on a heart shape locket. She read a lot of romantic books and they all had one thing in common. A heart shape locket. The guy would buy a locket then give it to their lover before they leave for the war. Of course the time period of these books was during World War II but still, she found that would be cute. "This is cute. I always wanted a guy to give me a heart shape locket," she thought aloud. "Maybe I should get a heart shape locket," she told Serena. She wondered if the locket would look cute with a formal dress.

Viv had a lot of rumors about her especially around school. Sometimes, the rumors make her laugh. She loved her family but they were very on top of the events she's going to. They always make sure she was giving the family name a good image. Luckily, they never knew about her sleeping with a lot of guys. She would party hard and wake up with some guy she didn't know. Then she would leave before he woke up. She had a lot of one night stands in the past. She was tired of that. She wanted something more but she barely had time to keep a relationship. "Yeah. I hope my family doesn't notice that I'm going single. I think going single is more fun," she told Serena. Viv was trying not to get set back in her old ways but with all the cute guys she had been seeing, she couldn't help but want to. People still call her a slut but hey, she would reply that at least she was getting some and not some bitter person who haven't had sex for weeks now. "Well, my family wants to make sure I don't embarrasse them by going alone. Their image is more important than anything else. For a time, they lied to their friends and said I was dating some French guy. Dating is important to my parents" she told Serena. Viv was a bit annoyed by this. Their image was more important than her happiness but that she was sure she wasn't alone on that.

"That's true," Viv had to admit. Dan might love Serena but if he didn't like something, he probably won't do it. She didn't know him that well except that he was part of middle class. She didn't like anyone under Upper class. She was very picky when it came to middle, lower and even working class. She believed that people should stick to their own status group but that was just her opinion. She knew Serena liked Dan a lot so Viv had to accept that even though she didn't approve of Dan. What was strange? Serena's mom and Dan's dad are getting married, which means Serena and Dan will be siblings soon. That will make things very interesting indeed.

"Those glasses look so good on you," Viv told Serena. "That's true too. Well, you're both lucky to have each other. Dan is lucky that he has the most beautiful girl in New York and you're lucky to have a guy who do things for you. I wish I could find a guy like that," Viv told her honestly. She wanted to date a guy who would sacrifice somethings for her. She should be able to do the same but she had a negative thought about that. She had a hard time believing she could ever meet a guy like that. Instead, she could see herself with some abusive guy who always hurt her either emotional, physically or both.

[SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN]

[/b][/color] Serena laughed when Viv commented she wanted one of those heart-shaped things. Coming to think of it, Serena had never received one and it was something a normal boyfriend will give her girl. Dan had always problems about giving her something, he claimed he never knows what to give her, but Serena didn’t want anything he could buy; she wanted him, which was all. “Yes, you should get it. It will look good on something casual and maybe even some dress.” Viv had never wanted to have a guy, thought her sleeping with almost all the guys on the school and quite a lot outside it wasn’t a secret. Relationships were complicated and difficult to carry on, she could understand why she didn’t want to get involved on one but Serena couldn’t see herself single.

Nate, Dan… and all those other guys she had been with, she just couldn’t help it, being single wasn’t her thing, she had so much love to give that she couldn’t spend more than a few months without a guy and even that was difficult to endure for her. Her mother hadn’t cared about her relationships expect for Dan one and now she understood why, thought it wasn’t as if Serena had tell her everything about her other boyfriends and her mother had never cared about her going alone to some important event, why Viv’s parents cared was out of her grips. It was 2010! Young women like her should take the decision of being alone or not and plus, being alone had more advantages than inconveniences, not for her but anyway, if you are single people just can’t get their noses on your love life because you simply don’t have one. “I think you are old enough to decide if you want to go alone or with someone, I can’t see why your parents care so much when no one gives that any importance.” She could understand her mother would care if she introduced her to some tattooed guy who looked like a young delinquent that just go out of jail, and maybe she will complain if she got a lower class guy instead of someone of her inner circles, which was the first thing her mother had thought of Dan and then discovered about the truth.

Now, introducing her to Jason would be a good one, she had never saw him, though he had been at her house a few times now her mother had been always out and it wasn’t as if Serena was hiding him from her it’s just happened to be that way. “I dated a French bartender during my holidays in Paris… he was so good.”. Serena laughed while remembering her summer there. Sometimes she wished she could just ditch everything and disappear like the old times but it wasn’t as easy now… or who said it was? “Oh thanks, I think you should try some too.” She added while looking herself at the mirror, she was definitely getting those ones sunglasses. “Well, we are both lucky to have each other, you know I truly love Dan despite what everyone thinks of him and he is a very good guy, we just have… issues.” And what issues, maybe they were doing it all wrong, maybe they should fix those issues first and then start the relationship back again? It would be the logical way after all and they will start afresh. “I think you should try to settle down though, having a relationship gives you things you can’t have while being single.” The love, the cuddles with sweet words… no just sex, it was the magic, the kisses, those walks hand in hand, what attracted Serena time and time again from one to the next without even a break between them.

I've come to know that I miss your love
While I'm not missing you

Viv smiled as Serena told her that she was getting the heart shaped lockets. She was a bit jealous of Serena because she was gorgeous and all the guys wants to date Serena. If Viv was dating a guy and Serena became single, he would probably dump Viv in a second to date Serena but who wouldn't. If Viv was lesbian or bi-sexual, she would totally date Serena if she liked girls. Everyone had their own qualities that shined though. For Serena, it was her looks. She was a model after all. For Viv, it was her fashion design. She has something she can brag about. Viv also had dimples, which she loves because it made her unique and not everyone had dimples. Serena might be gorgeous, but life wasn't perfect for her. Life isn't perfect for anyone. Not even for the royalties.

If someone had the perfect life, they must be living in a fantasy world. Having the perfect life would be extremely boring then. Gossip Girl doesn't like boring lives. She like lives with scandals and gossip that's worth talking about. "Yeah. It would look good with casual," she agreed with Serena. She smiled as she gazed down at the heart shape locket. Viv sometimes had urges to sleep with a guy and not having a relationship. She wasn't sure if she could handle a relationship though. She would be scared to get hurt. Would she be able to stay committed with a guy? The only way to find out is to try it. She had her eye on this one guy but she wasn't sure if he liked her. She wouldn't know until she tried. Until then, she'll enjoy being single.

Viv never really had a boyfriend. She preferred friends with benefits or one night stands. She was on the pill, which is good. She also use a back up method just in case. She didn't want any off springs inside her. That would be horrible. She would get an abortion if she had any off springs. She always wondered what it would be like to fall in love. She was scared to fall in love. She was scared of rejection. Lets face it, she tries not to fall in love. But if she met a guy that would sweep her off her feet, she wouldn't mind. She would give anything a try at least once. Right now, she wanted to go the ball by herself. She knew Peter would find a girl. She wish she could find someone that's cute and sweet but can stand up for himself. She doesn't like push overs. They are a bit annoying.

"I think I'll go alone this year. I am old enough. They probably won't even notice," she told Serena. Serena was right, Viv was old enough to make her own decisions. Besides, she was tired of her parents controlling her life. It wasn't like they were there anyways. She doesn't even remember the last time she had seen them. She wasn't sure how they would find out anyways. What's the big deal if she went alone? Her parents were selfish. They only cared about their image and not their daughter. They don't even know if she was a slut or an angel. They didn't raise her. Only her nanny raised her and now her nanny was gone because her parents feel she was old enough to take care of herself but not make decisions like whether or not if she was dating someone. She can survive not having a boyfriend.

Viv laughed as Serena told her about a French bartender. "I love Paris. I might go to Paris for the winter holiday," Viv told her. She smiled as she looked at the sunglasses rack. She was a bit picky with sunglasses. She love black sunglasses with sparkles on it like diamonds or something on it. She found a pair that had cute little hearts on it. The hearts were made with diamonds, which she loved it. "This is adorable," she thought aloud. She grabbed the sunglasses and tried them on. She fell in love with them on the spot. She nodded as Serena told her should try to settle down. "I should try it, but it has to be with the right guy. I don't want to face rejection though. I'm kind of picky of who I want to date," Viv mentioned. Viv wasn't picky, it was the fact that she rarely date guys. She only slept with them but never been in a serious relationship. She wants to but she was scared of rejection and getting hurt.

[SERENA VAN DER WOODSEN]

[/b][/color] Serena watched the heart shaped lock Viv got in her hands and smiled, those were the kind of things you buy when you are on the first month of relationship.

“They will notice.” Serena said smiling. “But they won’t care.” After all the shit she had been through she had learnt to not care about what other people thought of her, especially when it came to Gossip Girl spreading shitty rumors about her life. She was who she was and she had always took her own decisions, if she didn’t want to do something it wasn’t going to be her parents the ones forcing her, she wasn’t going to allow that and they knew it. “They will always think we are children, well not exactly that, but they will always be afraid of them not being the owners of their companies anymore, they know we will get over them.” Serena had no plans on doing that, she would go her way of course but her mother was afraid of her ruining her life somehow and ruining what they had fought to build during the years. She smiled remembering her time in Paris, oh how much she wanted to come back there and forget about everything, just enjoy her life, is people thought being rich and famous was easy they had no idea. “Oh Paris great, I want to go back there but don’t know when or when or with who.” She couldn’t plan her life as she wanted to, but one day she will wake up, pack her bags and disappear, do what her mother said she won’t let her doing, stumble around Europe without a plan.

She looked at Viv and had to bite her tongue not to laugh, if Viv was picky… well, maybe she was for a date but it wasn’t a secret she had sex with whatever guy got in front of her, not very picky you will say. “Yes, sure, for a relationship you have to know what you want, it can be difficult when you know it, I don’t want to imagine how would it be without that.” She knew what she wanted and she knew she wanted Dan and she had done loads of things to get them keep going on their relation, but had it worked? Hardly. She couldn’t imagine if she would have just picked a guy out of the blue and tried to make it work. No, that wasn’t her style. “One day you will, you know, and you will know he is the right one, the trick is not letting him go, just like I did.” She didn’t know if Dan was, but she had the impression her man had been on her life and she had lost it, maybe it was the feeling of losing the magic she got with Dan. “Deep breath and just let it go and happen, don’t think about it and relax.” One day they both will get married with the guys of their lives and they will happy.
