Girl Next Door

"Hey, long time no see." Dean smiles at his friends as he spots them on teh street. "How are you doing?" @ggstarterblog

"I'm doing great Dean. How about you?"

Barry had been at the shop, just tinkering away and trying to find out why the custom bike the customer had brought in wasn't working and he was just about to find it, when someone came in and called his name. "What's up?" He asked as he walked over to the person. "You don't got a bike that needs to be fixed, do you?" @ggstarterblog

Waverly laughed. "No, I never liked motorcycles." She shrugs. "Just had to get away from people talking to me about Gossip Girl and about Sarah Cameron."

Logan was happy he got a promotion at his job. The hockey games had gone pretty well too. What's not to celebrate than on a crowded bar? Maybe had he drank a little too much already. He jumped up on an empty table, clapped his hands and pointed out to the crowd, shouted "Hey! Next round's on me if anyone wants to refill their glasses" He jumped down, smiled to the person next to him "Hiii, do you want anything to drink? Water, any drinks? Anything? Did I say that already? Anyway, maybe I did" ( @ggstarterblog )

"Uh, I just sat down, but I'll very much take a drink, thank you." She smiles at him. "What are we celebrating?"

"As everyone should." Nesta joked and looks at Waverly. "Because she's not significant. That's how. If she was, I'd let her."

"How do you handle it though?" She asks. "I feel like I don't want her to get to me, but at the same time, she does get to me."

"A lot of practice." Fury shrugged. "Thank you, I am very proud of all my skills."

"You should be, that was totally bad ass, Fury!"

"Oh a secret relationship? How exciting for you! Is it because he's a celebrity or something like that? Girl, ugh, okay, just tell me the deets when it's all out in the open." Madeline replied as she sipped her coffee. "But just one question, is he like really hot? You know what I miss this, just having a girl talk and things being normal. I can't wait for them to let my drama go so I can live my life and enjoy it." She said and smiled at her. "Thank you for the advice, Waverly. I'll do just that cause why would I stop my life for them? You're so right."

"God no, you already know I can't date a famous person, though Amber did try to set me up when I was with her on the House Tour muisc vdieo." She laughs. "He is so hot, Mads, like he was hand crafted from the Gods, type of hot." She adds, her cheeks flushing going red slightly at the thought of Reid. "Exactly, you're better than them what they say, doesn't matter."

"I usually do, but last night I just couldn't. It was just one of those nights where I was in a bad mood, you know?"

Waverly frowned. "I'm sorry you couldn't ignore him. Tourist like that are truly the worst." She tells her. "Are you okay though? I know you said you were in a bad moof, but shitty tourist do not help."

Amber laughed. "We're friends, Waverly, Of course I wanted to put you into a music video, besides, you and I have known each other a long time and you've supported me."

"I know we're friends, Amber, but still, you could have chosen anyone else for the music video." She reminds her with a soft, and gentle smile. "Of course I'll support you. We've both been fucked over enough to understand each other."

"you're right and i do end up doing what makes me happy. i've already been to the olympics and as fun as they are, it is extremely exhausting in more ways than one."

"Hey, you don't need to explain" Waverly promises Quinn. "Seriously, you Olympians have to work hard to get there, it can't be easy, on anything or anyone."

"I swear these tourists get more and more desparate each time they come." Kaia laughs as she pours a drink for her freind. "I keep hearing the same pick up line over and over." @ggstarterblog

"Well I'm sorry that that keeps happening to you." Waverly said. "Though I do hope that you fuck with them every now and again."

"ah, you made it!" quinn smiled excitedly as she saw the person she had invited out for drinks and she hugged that person. "oh my gosh, how have you been? how has your day been? my day was rough, my coach still thinks i can make it to the olympics for figure skating, even though, that's not what i want. my ass is so sore from how many times i have fallen today." @ggstarterblog

"I did make it, thank you so much for inviting me." Waverly smiled at Quinn. "Well I think you should do what makes you happy, you know?"

"That was...pathetic." Fury said as she successfully stopped someone from taking her purse. She watched as the person got taken away in handcuffs and she rolls her eyes. "Bold of him, I'll give him that, but very, very pathetic." @ggstarterblog

"How in the hell did you stop that person so fast?" She looked at Fury with wide eyes. "That was...that was impressive."

Robin eyed the packaged coffee order on the counter and took it. "Then this... must be yours." She handed it to the other woman and smiled. "And hey, nothing to worry about. Even back home, I get trouble for sticking close to my best friend. How's your day going?"

"Thank you, Robin." Waverly smiled at her. "People are just assholes these days, it's ridiculous."

"Atta girl, serves them right." Maddie said and laughed after her friend flipped them off. "Yeah, I'm fine. It's just... I thought everyone would have forgotten about it already. About the whole I faked pregnancy to keep a guy. I'm so not looking forward to seeing him again." She rolled her eyes and leaned back on the chair. "But tell me, what did I miss when I was gone? How have you been? Are you seeing someone new? And seriously, you need to give me advice on how you survived all that drama and bullshit people put you through."

"Uh, I am...sort of seeing someone, but we're keeping it on the down low." Waverly admitted and looked at her. "The only advice I can give to you is to ignore them, you know? Don't let get them get to you because the more they get to you, the more they'll bully you and it's bullshit."

"that's pretty damn scary if you think about it."

"Oh it is beyond scary the amount of power Gossip Girl holds." She looks at John Tucker. "She can ruin a life in a heartbeat and she doesn't care at all."

"Now that was a hard watch." Carter said as he watched a couple break up over where to eat for lunch. "Jesus, people are that pathetic." @ggstarterblog

Waverly shook her head. "Are you really surprised that something as simple as where to eat broke a couple up? I feel like watching a show without your significant other leads to a break up now."

Madeline sat alone at a table, sipping her coffee after helping out at one of her family's bakeries. She'd come there when she missed the quiet life with her aunt in Tuscany and wanted to prove to her parents she'd really changed. It's exactly one year since she ran away when her scandal broke out. Faking pregnancy to keep a man. Real low, Maddie.

Waverly raised a hand and shook her head. "It's fine, Maddie." She promised her and glanced at the people that were staring at the two of them. She flipped them off and looked back at the other woman. "You okay though?"
