penelope shafai

even when nate-and-blair were together, he doubted that penelope had ever really liked him. tolerated, sure. but not liked. it was the same for bella but she always let her face do the talking. "i guess we're nothing without our in tact reputations. were you, uh, looking for blair or serena, or something?"

the arch in archibald was stood for arch-nemesis when it came to him. she saw no appeal and he was about as much help as a bucket of apples these days in terms of social status. if he couldn't even do that then what was his purpose? "you are." she hummed "no, i was enjoying myself before you showed up but where else would a son of a scandal be other than trying to do some damage control"

a small smile tugged on her lips at penelope's absolute lack of patience. poor stacey (stacey, right?). fortunately, she was long forgotten now that pen was here to occupy her time. bella rolled her eyes at pen's question but not without affection, they both knew she was right. "well, i'm not supposed to know that it'll be a disappointing end when we're making out for the first time. i need to be shocked and appalled every time. otherwise, how could you rightly tell me 'i told you so'?" she teased. "music to my ears, pen," she grinned, looping their arms and leading them both back over to the makeshift bar. gossip was such a passion of theirs.

"oh my god, don't get me started-," she was totally getting started, "i mean, besides the obvious messes... jake hunter wrinkling in the hot tub for nth hour, hello? and tabby dryden making a show of herself, i mean really, tying the cherry stem? so two years ago." the fact that very move had once made bella's jaw drop was not important. "did you see that vanessa is here? and dan humphrey, kill me. it's like there's nowhere we can escape anymore."

with the girl finally out of the way, pen looked less annoyed than she did when she first arrived to the scene. "and yet you do know the answer to that question before trying the sample. you never learn that these people aren't worth your time, bell" she huffed, a sneaky smile finding it's way to her face "i do like saying 'i told you so'" she had her there. pen walked arm looped with her best friends to the bar

these people were complete train wrecks. what was going through these peoples brains? pen scoffed at the news that was being divulged to her. "that all sounds utterly hideous and crass" she rolled her eyes at the mention of vanessa and dan's attendance "a nuclear bomb could go off and those two would crawl out of the woodwork. for two people that think they're morally superior they sure love showing up at upper east side kids events. then again, one has fallen from their high horse after her escapade with chuck bass was put on blast"

"penelope-," nate sighed, pressing his lips together into a very awkward smile. it was no secret that penelope shafai had never really liked nate but without his last name clout, it was worse than ever. "thank you for that. it's, uh, nice to see you too."

[itspenelopeshafai]

"nathaniel-" she shot back with a face that could only be described as mean girl irritated. the nate archibald fall from grace had been one that pen had gladly watched, popcorn in hand. other than money she didn't deem anything about him to be special. "i know it is, i've got an in tact reputation. you on the other hand? not so much."

[isabella-oftheball]

"pen!-," bella gasped, a bright grin instantly on her face (a far cry from her usual cool indifference). "you can go," she said to... whatever-her-name-was... before practically leaping over to her best friend. "shut up, you know you're far more important than random girls i'm making out with. fun as they are, of course. you're much prettier too. your sacrifices will not go unrewarded, promise. refill?"

[itspenelopeshafai]

at bella's dismissal of the girl, pen was already inpatient at how slowly she was leaving. "quickly" she demanded, clapping her hands twice to hurry her up. ignoring the girl from that point on, she returned her attention to bella "are they fun or are they a means to a disappointing end?" no one could live up to bella in pen's opinion, and no one was ever going to get her approval "it's a burden to carry but someone has to do it. i'd never say no to a refil and a catch up with you over drinks. so come on, fill me in, what have i missed? who's a mess?"

Bella pulled back from her just enough to ask- "What were you saying again?" @tfrstarters

[itspenelopeshafai]

"i'm saying...if you stopped making out with random girls that you'd finally see your best friend has arrived after a twenty six hour long haul flight but whatever i'll go fuck myself i guess"

Dean watched from a distance and tried not to laugh as yet another person made an attempt at flirting with Jesse. He wasn't entirely sure what was happening with this party, but he was almost glad he came. "This is too fucking funny."

"you'd think they'd all take the hint by now and leave the guy alone" she chimed in during their observation of the scene unfolding in front of them. "it's embarrassing at this point"
