Serena reluctantly hauled herself out of bed, yesterday's memories flooding back into her mind. She had cancer...and a coffee date with Blair this morning
Although she really wasn't in the mood she knew she couldn't just cancel, Blair would freak!
Serena threw on a pale green and white dress and brushed her tangles. She applied lipgloss and some light eye makeup.
Serena quickly walked out of her apartment and onto the bustling streets of New York, she signalled for a cab and a neon yellow vehicle parked on the curb
Serena jumped into the taxi and sat quietly whilst the driver sped along the roads. She occasionally glanced down at her phone, rereading Gossip Girl's most recent posts, after all she had nothing better to do
Eventually she'd reached her stop. Serena dropped her phone into her hand bag and paid the driver before walking inside the cafe where she and Blair had arranged to meet
As soon as she walked through the doors, Serena spotted her best friend Blair Waldorf awaiting her arrival patiently whilst sipping a cup of what appeared to be tea
'B!' Serena cried, baring the biggest fake smile she could muster. She knew if she could fool Blair into thinking she was fine, she could fool anyone!
'Serena!' Smiled Blair, 'I've got something to tell you, but first how have you been?'
Serena thought hard for a moment, unsure of how to answer, 'Fine' she stuttered her smile fading...this was going to be harder than she thought
Blair furrowed an eyebrow, 'What's up?' She asked inquisitively, sliding her empty mug of tea across the table
'Nothing'
'S, I've known you practically my hole life, your hiding something'
'No I'm not!'
'Yes you are!'
'Just stop it Blair!' Serena shouted, grabbing the attention of some near by customers, 'I should go...'
'I don't even know why I bother with you sometimes!' Blair spat, 'You don't even show the slightest interest in my life anymore!'
'Well don't worry you won't have to bother with me for much longer!' Serena muttered, only just loud enough so Blair could hear
'What's that supposed to mean?!' Blair demanded
Serena whipped around to face Blair, her eyes filled with fury, 'I have cancer B!' Serena's mad expression faded into a sad looking face, 'stage 3...things aren't looking good!'
Blair cupped her hands over her mouth, 'No!' She whispered tears falling from her eyes,
Serena wrapped her arms around Blair embracing her in a hug
'No you can't leave me S! You can't!' Blair sobbed, dampening Serena's shoulder with her tears
'Don't cry Blair. I'm not gone yet!' Serena smiled weakly, pulling away from her friend, 'So what did you wanna tell me?'
Blair stared at her feet for a few moments, 'Doesn't matter'
-
Blair gloomily walked through the doors of her apartment, breathing a huge sigh
Blairs husband Chuck was sitting at the dining table reading a newspaper, 'How was your day?' He asked
Blair sighed again, 'Not great!' Chuck looked up at his wife and beckoned her to come sit down
She pulled out a chair and seated herself, 'Did you tell her?' Chuck whispered, Blair looked at him in disgust, 'No!The hole world doesn't revolve around you and me Chuck!' She cried angrily knocking over her chair as she stormed off into their bedroom slamming the door behind her
