Why are you avoiding daddy H?!
--------------------------------------------------
GG: Good morning UES today is a bright new day. apart from a slight brezze coming in. do i smell scandle in the air. thats right i do. time to send anda people to work... i mean school. i want gossip kiddies. if i dont get it, i might have to find it myself. on everyone....
hannah was about to walk out the door when her dad called her back. hannah had been finding excuses not to be around her parents. espicially her father. he could read people like books, and hannah was a familiar one. she turned around and smiled. it was completly convincing but it was as fake as Lindsey baizen's nose.
H: yes daddy?
Ja(jack): i havent seen anda about lately. have anda been avoiding me.
H: of course not daddy, we just must have been running in diffrent directions.
Ja: anda have stayed over at victoria's alot these past three months. is something wrong?
H: no no im fine. really daddy it's nothing. me and victoria just have alot of enemies since gossip girl came back and we have alot of take downs needed doing. once Vicky's kingdom is selamat, peti deposit keselamatan and her subjects are in their place again it will be back to normal. and sejak the way, their place is below me and vicky.
Ja: why do anda have your blazer buttoned? i thought anda berkata it was silly to do that on a school uniform.
H: times have changed. what's with the questions? can i go to the other bass household now because victoria is never late to school. clear record, just like her mom had before her.
Ja: go on.
H: thanks.
once hannah was outside her house she let out a breath she didnt know she was holding. things were getting trickier to hide since she started showing. she buttoned her blazer to hide her bump. if the school found out she would be a laughing stalk. and if her dad found out one of her best Friends would be dead in seconds. she need to tell her parents but she didnt have the strength. she needed victoria to help her. just then Niamh Delgard walked past.
Ni: hei Hannah.
H: hei Niamh.
Ni: you're the only one of my brothers Friends who are nice to me. (smiles) and my own brother isnt nice to me. why?
H: i dont see the point in petty arguements. there is much lebih important things.
Ni: like maybe a little unborn person?
H: how did anda know?
Ni: i was standing near sejak when that girl, lindsey was it, berkata that to you. that was horrible. im so sorry she did that to you.
H: it isnt your fault. lindsey baizen is a capital B.I.T.C.H anyway.
Ni: well if anda need anything im lebih than happy to help. plus i Cinta retail threapy and stuff. maybe we could kedai together sometime?
H: i would Cinta that but im not going to look to good.
Ni: lies anda always look lovely hannah. no matter what. plus right now your glowing.
H: thank you.
Ni: do anda want to walk to school together?
H: sure, i'll text vicky and tell her to go on without me.
Ni: oh i dont want to get in the way of anda and victoria.
H: nonsence me and victoria can walk to school tommorow.
Ni: ok.
------------
victoria was looking at herself in the mirror. she was proud of her choice of clothes this morning. she had her school dress on. it was altered to look lebih stylish it came to just below the thigh she wore a neck piece and her purple kot and hair band, her curls were falling down around her shoulders. she had also got her new purple leggings.
C: anda look like your mother in that.
V: dad i didnt see anda there.
C: i was coming to see if anda were nearly ready for school. your breakfast is getting cold.
V: daddy anda cant rush perfection. now i think there is lebih to that story about me looking like mom.
C: there is. i found this picture, anda look just like your mother.
V: (takes the picture) she is wearing the same outfit as me only in yellow and orange.
C: lebih proof of anda being like your mother.
V: can i keep this?
C: go ahead.
V: thanks, now all i need is a picture of me in this exact same spot. then i can make a colage with them. and when im older and have kids i can force them to wear this and a different coulored coat. and so on. we'll add to it.
C: lets not talk about anda deciding to have kids. im not ready for that.
V: sorry daddy. dont worry i'll wait till im at least 24 atau 25.
C: no you'll wait until im dead.
V: daddy dont say that.
C: it isnt up for discussion. anda have to wait until im dead to have children ok.
B: Chuck stop talking about your death!
C: sorry blair darling but she is talking about her having kids in the future. i think she is trying to kill me.
B: sorry chuck darling, but anda already know she isnt a virg...
C: La La La shut up dont say it.
V: yes me and daddy like to pretend i am. see he doesnt want to think one of his little girls have Lost her innocence and i dont want him to know about that. so it works.
C: yes we have a system blair lets not mess it up.
B: so who do anda plan on having kids with?
C: BLAIR!
B: dont be such a baby chuck. i want to know so i can picture my future grandchildren. tell me sweetie?
V: well if Johnny Depp was an option. it would be him. but i dont want a husband three times my age and a bit. plus he would be in jail.
B: sweetie if we could all have johnny depp we would.
C: thank anda for that mrs bass.
B: sorry chuck. go on sweetie.
V: well the last time i thought about having kids was when i was with tyler. so i think anda can guess.
B: aww, a little Victoria with blonde. hair. brown eyes, the jawline anda inherited from anda father. that baby would be adorable.
V: red lips. so it has some waldorf traits.
C: i'll never be able to look at tyler delgard again without killing him... atau that is another great idea. if i kill him then i...
V: daddy we arent together anymore! plus i never talked to him about this stuff.
B: be careful with your father, he really might kill him.
C: i thinking about it as anda speak.
V: me and tyler are better off as friends. we argued to much when we were together. it nearly ruined our friendship. plus tyler wasnt good enough in bed.
(chuck laughs)
B: VICTORIA!
C: no that was funny blair.
V:(smirks(has the infamous chuck bass smirk)) glad i amuse anda father.
C: im going to go before anda say something that doesnt amuse me. (chuck leaves)
B: was he really?
V: no he was fantastic at everything we had done. i just berkata that to make daddy happy.
B: come get your breakfast.
V: i'll be down in a second.
------------
Lindsey waited for Niamh in the library. just as she was about to leave she entered.
L(lindsey): i thought anda had forgot about our meeting. what did anda find out when ease dropping on your brother?
Ni: nothing overly good. there conversations for the past 3 months were mostly about hannah. but i did get the fact that we might be able to use her brother. plus i was late because i have made an alli.
L: who?
Ni: Hannah Bass, she doesnt know anything about out plan but she thinks im a friend. she also knows i know about the pregnancy. but this will help me find my way in when she needs help. she will need help when anda tell gossip girl about her being pregnant. i have some photographic evedence of her baby bump. i seen her about trying on dresses with victoria where the bump is quite visable.
L: i cant i have nathan wrapped around my little finger.
Ni: well then i have someone who can help us. and nathan wouldnt know anda were involved.
L: who?
Ni: your twin brother Patrick.
L: patrick hates them aswell. the only reason i want to have nathan sejak the way is because he is my tie to the group. i want tyler. but of course he is to loyal to victoria.
Ni: well he is my brother. i could try and tilt the tables without him noticing.
L: really?
Ni: absolutly.
L: thanks. im glad we are friends.
Ni: me too.
after niamh sends the pictures of hannah and he baby bump to lindsey and lindsey gives them to her brother, who is lebih than happy to help out.
------------
hannah was talking to victoria when phones went off everywhere including their phones. they took them out and it was gossip girl.
GG: hei upper east siders, know the news about hannah bass that i was dying to hear. well here it is. have anda notice hannah leaving class alot in the mornings, maybe how she buttons her blazer now and also a few changes in her body. well the news is H is pregnant. anda heard it here first. dont worry H, we did anda justice. we also have photographic evidence. check out the pics. anda know anda Cinta me. xoxo.
-Gossip Girl
H: OMG i feel sick.
V: hannah it's ok.
H: no it's not victoria! stop pretending everything is fine! things arent as easy as anda pretend they are! life is difficult! im learning that sooner than i should! you're not pregnant, anda dont know how difficult things are! i got to go.
(hannah runs off)
everyone is looking where hannah had just shouted at victoria in front of everyone. they were looking and laughing at the fact that hannah was pregnant and victoria had enough of it.
V: Shows over! Now all of anda will pretend anda didnt see atau hear anything and if i get another gossip girl blast about what just happened... well i shouldnt if anda know what is good for you! anda wont treat hannah any differently than anda did before ok! now get on with your own pathetic lives, and stay out of my Friends and familys!
(victoria walks out to the hall and everyone had listened to victoria)
Na: victoria where is hannah?
V: she ran off somewhere nathan. most likely to the place no one ever finds her. including me. dont worry people will still treat her normally. i'll make sure of it.
Na: good, im going to go find hannah.
V: anda two havent talked in three months.
Na: i know hannah has been avoiding me. i guess now is the time.
(nathan runs off)
V: i hope he doesnt tell her it will be fine.
-------------
nathan had left school a good while lalu and now arrived at the park. he went down to the we bench near the pond and found hannah.
Na: and victoria wonders why she can never find you.
H: she's looking in the wrong places.
Na: good thing i know anda well enough to know anda wouldnt stay in the school building.
H: what are anda doing here nathan?
Na: one- you're one of my bestfriends. two- i wanted to know if anda were ok, three- you're pregnant with my baby and we havent talked in three months. have anda even been to a doctor yet.
H: victoria took me once. it was before i could actually see what my baby would look like. just to check if everything was ok. it was.
Na: thats good. hannah i really want to help with this. i know when i found out i didnt handle my shock well. i sounded angry. but im not angry. i was just confused.
H: anda dont think i was confused?! i was also scared thinking anda were going to hate me, you're my best friend and i think i might actually... like you. as in like like.
Na: really?
(hannah nodds)
nathan cupps hannahs face with both his hands and wipes the tears with his thumb. then he pulls her face ke hadapan and kisses her. he slides his tongue in her mouth slowly. hannah gladly excepting it. anfter a while he pulls back.
Na: i think i might like like anda too.
H: please dont tell anyone i berkata like like. it sounds stupid. and im already pregnant no need for anymore bad points. shit victoria probably hates me. i shouted at her and she was only trying to help.
Na: victoria understands, she is already terrorising half the school to treat anda the same as before.
H:(laughs) i guess its good to have victoria bass as your cousin.
Na: she knows anda would do the same for her. plus the shouting at her is probably just hormones.
H: go breathe someone elses air.
Na: that is a famous Queen V saying anda just used.
H: i know.
Na: we are going back to school now come on. first i have to break up with Lindsey. i only dated her to keep your secret selamat, peti deposit keselamatan sejak the way. but it is out know. plus i want to officially want to tunjuk anda off as my girlfriend. that is if anda want to be that?
H: of course i do.
Na: also on the to do senarai (opens hannah's blazer) anda have to tunjuk the vultures anda dont care what they think. tunjuk off your baby bump. be prond of it.
H: anda are so cheesy.
Na: also have anda told your parents yet?
H: no.
Na: good. i want to be there with anda when anda do.
H: my dad will kill you.
Na: i dont care i want to tunjuk them im here for anda 100% of the way.
H: ok so girlfriend, baby bump and parents. anything else.
Na: doctors appointment and anything that'll be good for anda during the pregnancy. im sure we can get a few things of my mum and your mum.
H: ok. thank anda nathan.
Na: no problem Hannah Banana.
H: Ughh stop calling me that.
Na: stress isnt good for the baby. so dont complain. sejak the way i learnt that from my mother when she was pregnant with the twins.
H: come on. back to school we go.
------------
Niamh met Lindsey in secret again, she walked over to her and sat beside her.
Ni: hannah is recovered i read a text over victoria's shoulder.
L: yeah well unless anda come up with something quick we cant work together anymore. because nathan broke up with me because the secret was out.
Ni: i do have something else. all i had to do was sleep with gregory. yes i know he is 13 but he is only two years younger than me. anyway victoria's weakness is being known as vunerable. all we have to do is tunjuk people her vunerable side in front of the school. a humilated Queen who isnt strong enough for the throne. after that anda and i kick her down a few lebih notches with my valuble information and the Queen of constance/st. judes is dethroned.
L: anda work fast.
Ni: i do, anyway i think we should get your brothers help again. how about her being force against her will to do something.
L: Patrick should be up for that.
Ni: well i heard that her vunerable side can be shown also with a memory of the past. A.K.A daddy not being there for the first four years of her life.
L: an unwanted child, brilliant what else do anda have?
Ni: well she has a fear of tyler being hurt atau dead so we can do something about that. but the unwanted child could be good because we could start saying stuff sejak unwanted sejak everyone and after hannah's little tunjuk at her today. unwanted sejak her cousin who is in a worse state than her.
L: i like it. and we can do this today.
Ni: yep.
L: i'll get patrick and we'll be sorted.
Ni: pleaseure doing business. you're also my best friend.
L: you're mine too.
------------
victoria was standing against the dinding waiting for tyler. she couldnt wait for this hari to be over, and she loved school and learning. plus she wanted to see her mom. he mom was 6 months pregnant. i n three months time her baby brother would arrive. born in june. it would be a good time to come. if he was born in summer time and didnt come early he would finish the patern. victoria was born in autumn, her brother gregory in winter and madeline in spring.
victori was Lost in thoughts and didnt notice Patrick Baizen come out of no where.
he pushed her against the dinding and pushed himself against her.
P(patrick): hei beautiful. (kisses her neck)
V: get off me patrick atau i'll...
P: atau you'll what? anda look pretty stuck to me.
V: i'm not stuck...
P: did anda just relalise anda are.
V: patrick i swear to god let me go.
P: no, i want a Ciuman (goes in for the Ciuman and she turns her head instead patrick kisses her neck again) i want a kiss, and i get what i want.
V: w-well your not getting a kiss.
P: did anda just sttuter.
V: no.
P: i think anda did. (his face is very close to hers, he had her hands pinned above her head)
V: P-Patrick let me G-Go
P: na uh. (kisses her hand on the mouth and forces his tongue in her mouth) did anda enjoy that.
V: no, anda got yo-your kiss, no leave me alone.
P: but anda know what i like to do to girls. and anda know i dont care if im in public. (starts sliding a hand up her skirt)
V: P-Patrick, stop. please just s-stop.
P: i dont think i can anda see... (kisses her with tongue again) i like this game.
V: th-this isnt a g-game patrick. l-let me go.
P: no. (squezzes her ass)
victoria closes her eyes shut but all of a sudden she cant feel patrick on her anymore. she looked to see 'tyler' holding him against the dinding sejak the collor. and tyler never hit people.
P: delgard im not afraid of you.
Ty: anda should be. i might not resolve to violence often but when it is nessacary i will.
P: what are anda going to do? tickle me to death.
Ty: no (punches him in the face) that is want im going to do.
V: T-Tyler just let him go. he can get on with his own useless life.
Ty: no he deserves everything he gets. (punches patrick again)
P: look mate im sorry i wont do it again.
Ty: i dont believe anda (pushes him into the wall)
(nathan and hannah run up)
Na: what is going on?
Ty: this piece of shit was forcing himself on vicky. (kicks patrick when he falls to the ground)
Na: i think i'll help anda beat the shit out of him.
H: are anda ok vicky?
V: yes. anda two stop he is already lying on the ground practically gasping for breath! tyler anda arent violent and nathan anda are on your last mark remember! you'll be expelled!
(tyler steps back and patrick goes as fast as he can)
Na: well done tyler i have never seen anda beat someone up.
Ty: i dont plan on doing it often.
V: good.
they all talk a bit and hannah keeps one arm around victoria's waist.
L: well well well, quite a stutter anda have victoria. weird i've never heard it before. anda wouldnt of happened to be 'scared' would you?
V: no. lindsey... and niamh.
Ni: guess being treated like that just shows how worthless she really is.
Ty: niamh what are anda doing?
Ni: nothing but what is nessicary brother. just menunjukkan victoria how unwanted she is.
L: weird no one really tried to help anda V.
Ni: even her brother is no where in sight.
V: he's in detention.
Ni: even so he probably wouldnt want to help you.
L: yes just like daddy didnt want anda at all. weird how he was there for your little brother and sister though.
Na: stop this.
Ni: dont pretend like anda care about her anda dated her worst enemy.
L: i should know. im sure tyler just wants in her underwear again. come on, tyler hits my brother when he is trying to make a move. clearly he is making his territory so he can fuck the Queen of high school.
Ty: that isnt true.
Ni: but it is anda told me brother. and even your cousin doesnt want anda victoria. why else would she have got help from nathan and shouted at anda when anda tried to help her.
L: shes right. maybe your little sister wants anda right now but wait till she grows up. your brother was telling niamh how anda got all the attention at utama earlier.
Ni: he finshed telling me about how anda dad didnt want anda so he give anda attention to make anda think he did. and that gregory himself hated you.
H: anda are making this up.
L: nothing but the truth. im sure mommy doesnt want her either. thats why she got pregnant.
Ni: so she didnt have to spend as much time with you. its a matter of time before everyone realises your not worth the trouble and leaves anda victoria. like your dad did the minit he found out anda were going to be born.
L: another reason for your mom to hate you. anda made her true Cinta leave for 4 years. trajic.
Ni: your worthless victoria. a coward.
L: your weak. anda couldnt even hold it together while we told anda the truth.
Ni: you're unloved, weak and no one likes you. people pretend to like anda so they dont get in trouble. for all anda know daddy could have paid them. he has enough money.
V: i-i-i gotta go. (runs to the limo with tears on her face)
L:(snaps a picture and sends to gossip girl) i know why she loves take downs.
H: so do i. (gives them both glares)
Na: me too.
Ty: i dont but i would Cinta to see why?
Ni: we know stuff about all of you. well i do. lindsey you're finished.
L: what do anda mean?
Ni: i mean, i used you. anda were good help to take down the high and mighty Queen but i dont need anda anymore. feel free to put yourself up to be a girl at the steps though.
L: but i was meant to become queen!
(the three others walked off to see the limo but it was gone)
Ni: to bad anda wont be queen. im queen, anda told me so secrets of yours remember. anda wont defy me if anda want them to stay secret. now leave. i need to let the school know who's in charge. and tell gossip girl aswell. she would just Cinta to know who will take over.
L: we were friends?
Ni: and know we're not. havent anda ever heard the saying. trust no one. not even your closest friends.
L: i hate you.
Ni: take a number. im going to be the number 1 jalang, perempuan jalang now.
------------
victoria arrived utama and found the person she was looking for. he dad was sitting at the meja, jadual drinking coffee and had paper work everywhere.
V: i need to know?
C: need to know what sweetie? what are anda doing home?
V: i need to know why anda left when anda found out mom was pregnant? the real reason dad. did anda want me?
C: of course i wanted you. i wanted nothing lebih than to start a family with your mother and anda were the start of our family.
V: but anda left?
C: i dont know where this came from but if anda want to know i'll tell you. anda know your grandmother evelyn died giving birth to me.
V: yes.
C: i was afraid that having a baby could do the same thing to your mother. i was afraid of losing her atau you. so i took the easy way out and told your mom to get rid of anda atau i'd leave. and if she had got rid of anda it would have been the worst mistake of my life because i Cinta anda so much. well anyway anda mother wouldnt and i left. i talked to serena about it but when i went to get your mother back she was in france. i thought she had moved to france. so i left manhattan. i left new york. i came back years later and met anda and your mother and i think anda know most of it from there.
V: so anda do care about me? anda want me as anda child?
C: of course i do. where is this coming from? please dont tell me im a father like mine was.
V: no your the best dad in the world it's just, these girls in my school...
C: let me guess wannabe's
V: i thought they were but they berkata i was weak and a coward and unloved and unwanted and all this.
C: they told anda that?!
V: yeah, i told me alot of people dodnt want me, but if anda didnt want me that would have been what would have hurt the most.
C: who are they?!
V: lindsey Baizen and Niamh delgard.
C: do anda want me to do something?
just then victoria's phone went off. she looked at the gossip girl blast.
GG: looks like niamh delgard has took down a Queen with L. looks like 1 didnt read the fine print of their agreement. people close to anda arent always Friends sometimes they just want to stab anda in the back. All hail Queen N. New jalang, perempuan jalang people. poor L. looks like we have pictures of both 1 and V in tears. and a beaten up Patrick.
anda know anda Cinta me. xoxo.
-Gossip Girl
V: and then there was one. (smirks)
C: what?
V: no need to do anything father. all will be well so enough. looks like Niamh took out lindsey for me. she should know anda always need an ally. and she should learn im Friends with her brother who doesnt like her. a Queen is nothing without her friends. and it looks like niamh doesnt have one.
C: anda are just like your mother (smirks)
V: i can be a jalang, perempuan jalang when i want to be.
C: that's because your a bass.
V: no daddy, its because im victoria bass.
C: anda got that line from me.
(victori smirks)
C: and that smirk.
V: well i have to go daddy. thank anda for the reasurence and also for letting me know the full story and not skipping any details. i hate it when grown ups hide things. Cinta you.
C: Cinta anda too.
------------
niamh was sitting on one of the tables in the courtyard with the girls of the steps when victoria walked over with hannah, nathan and tyler. the rest of the courtyard were watching and lebih people coming in.
Ni: what do anda want? im busy.
V: i want anda off my fucking throne.
Ni: oh yeah. (stands up in victoria's face) and who's going to make me?
V: get out of my face because im big, your small im strong and your weak.
Ni: i think i've proven your the weak one.
V: anda see that is were your wrong. everyone in this courtroom has tried something on me but i have got them all back. anda played to me weak point yes. but the rest of me is ice cold. now i will play to your weak point.
Ni: oh yeah and how will anda find it?
V: your half-brother of course. he hates you, he's my best friend and we dated.
Ni: he doesnt know it.
V: i heard your scared of being pressured sejak boys. you're scared of being raped atau kissed when it is not wanted.
Ni: so.
V: every guy here has tried something on me. even the occaisional teacher has set his hand high my leg. how could anda cope with that. i also here anda get nervous under pressure. do anda know how much pressure comes with this job. anda are consantly finding new recruites, seeing who is reliable and who is fit to be Queen when anda leave. anda have to be able to scare your victims older than anda as well as younger. anda have to tunjuk boys who is boss. just like patrick baizen Lost the hard way. his poor manhood didnt see it coming when my jimmy choo when right into it. poor crater is still lying on the steps out of the school building. anyway there is lebih pressure than that. anda have to control teachers aswell sweet talk and flirt with older people disgusting yes need definatly. oh and one lebih thing i need to tell you.
Ni: w-what?
V: losing your virginty at 15 to a 13 tahun old boy is just not right. god if anda had been 3 years older and even if he was 16 anda would have been a pedofile.
Ni: h-how d-di-did anda k-know ab-about that?
V: quite a stutter anda have there. anyway your forgeting he is my brother. anda know the one who doesnt Cinta me.
G: yeah i hate her. i hate her so much i would do anything to help her destroy you.
Ni: anda told her gregory!
G: yeah shes the sister i hate so i tell her everything. and she just told the school. people are recording this.
V: Niamh the girls of the steps is lebih loyal to me than you.
Ni: no t-they're not!
V: girls who would anda rather as your Queen me atau niamh.
GOTS(girls of the steps): anda victoria.
Ni: no! No anda cant do this!
L: but she can she's Queen V and im sorry i ever helped anda take her down because she's what this school needs. a sense of direction, someone who is loved sejak her peers, stands up against people who hurt her and her family. and can face her fears. i'd be glad to call her Queen again.
V: thank anda Lindsey, never expect to hear thank anda again sejak the way.
Ni: please im sorry anda cant destroy me.
V: oh but i can, and i will. maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. the suspense will kill anda enough. then when your quivering with fear i'll pounce. your social status will be dead. no one will want to know anda and know one will give a shit about Niamh delgard the girl who thought she could take me down. learnt the hard way didnt you.
Ni: im sorry.
V: anda sicken me. get out of my sight!
(niamh runs of in floods of tears and victoria stands on a chair in the courtyard and smirks)
V: in case anda havent heard, i'm the crazy jalang, perempuan jalang around here. (gets of the chair)
H: vicky that was awesome!
V: why thank you.
Na: well done but where did anda go?
V: there was someone i had to talk to.
G: sejak the way victoria i dont hate you. no one does. espicailly after that.
V: i know little bro, thanks for the support. sejak the way are anda avoiding rachel again?
G: no she's avoiding me.
V: why?
G: tyler your her cousin so anda might not want to hear this. well i was buying cigarettes and then we were laughing and stuff. we kissed and it later progressed to something else.
V: ew.
G: well i have to go talk to tristan. (leaves)
Ty: sejak the way what they berkata earlier about me trying to get in your pants wasnt true.
V: i know. i dont believe any of what they berkata because one- im victoria bass and two- i had i nice chat with the man im pround to call my father. i got the full story as to why he left for the first 4 years of my life.
H: i Cinta my cousin.
V: i Cinta my cousin too.
H: sejak the way me and nathan aare dating.
V: WHAT? your joking.
Na: no when i found her earlier it happened.
V: yay! omg this is awesome. mommy, daddy and baby.
Ty: a family.
V: yeah. what about the parents?
Na: we are going to tell her parents first and then mine.
V: good.
H: and we have to go. come on nathan.
