picture　herself　wrapped　in　a　downy　white　spa　robe；　her　face　lathered　in　green　clay　masque；　her

feet　and　hands　stuck　with　acupuncture　needles；　sipping　detoxifying　herbal　tea　as　she　lounged　on　a

daybed　chatting　to　an　attentive　counselor　in　a　white　linen　tunic。

？If　you　could　be　any　sort　of　animal；　what　would　you　be？？　the　counselor　would　ask　her。　Nothing

too　challenging。

Rehab。　Why　hadn？t　she　thought　of　it　before？　Sure；　there　might　be　a　little　therapy　involved；　but

she？d　never　had　a　problem　talking　about　herself。　And　best　of　all；Nate　would　be　there　？the　two　of

them　alone　together；　away　from　the　city　and　all　its　messy　baggage。　She？d　always　dreamed　of

spending　a　weekend　with　Nate　at　a　romantic　bed…and…breakfast　on　the　Cape　or　in　the　Hamptons。　A

rehab　clinic　in　Greenwich；　Connecticut；　would　be　almost　as　good。　Sure；　she？d　thought　she？d

wanted　to　erase　Nate？s　arrogant；　cheating　presence　from　her　life　entirely；　but　Nate　sounded　like　he

was　turning　over　a　new　leaf；　which　was　exactly　what　she　was　trying　to　do！

？So　how　do　you　get　into　rehab　anyway？　Can　you　just　sign　up；　or　do　you　have　to　be　sent　there　by

somebody？？　Blair　asked。　She　glanced　at　herself　in　the　mirror　on　the　back　of　her　closet　door。　With

her　hacked…off　hair　and　pasty　face；　she　looked　enough　like　a　heroin　addict　that　they　were　sure　to

admit　her。

？I　think　you　can　sign　yourself　in；　but　who？d　be　crazy　enough　to　do　that？？　Nate　asked。

Blair　smiled。She　would。　？So　do　you　want　to　get　together　tomorrow　night　or　something？？　she

asked。　？I　know　I　act　like　a　bitch　sometimes；　Nate；　but　I　always　wind　up　missing　you。？

？Sorry。　I　have　to　be　at　Breakaway　for　group；？　Nate　responded。　He　hadn？t　seen　Georgie　since　the

night　of　the　snowstorm　and　Jackie　had　promised　Georgie　would　be　returning　to　group

tomorrow。　？I　take　the　train；　so　I　don？t　get　home　until　pretty　late。？

？All　right。　But　let？s　get　together　sometime　soon；　okay？？　Blair　said。　？You　know　you　love　me；？

she　added　in　a　seductive　whisper　and　hung　up。

Hopping　off　her　bed　with　newfound　energy；　she　removed　the　Pucci　scarf　from　her　head　and

messed　up　what　little　hair　she　had　left　with　a　dime…sized　squirt　of　Bed　Head　texturizing　hair　gel。

Then　she　opened　her　bedroom　door　for　the　first　time　all　week。　？Mom！？　she　shouted　down　the

hall。　？e　quick。　I　need　your　help　with　something！？

What　better　way　for　the　leading　lady　to　make　a　eback　than　to　emerge　from　rehab；　refreshed

and　rejuvenated；　with　her　handsome　leading　man　at　her　side？

sex　poems　are　full　of　lies

？So　。　。　。　；？　Vanessa　said；　bouncing　her　knee　against　Dan？s　thigh　as　they　lay　naked　on　their　backs；

contemplating　his　cracked　bedroom　ceiling　in　a　postcoital　daze。　？What　did　you　think？？

Vanessa　had　already　tried　sex　a　couple　of　times　before　with　her　ex…boyfriend　Clark；　an　older
