b joins exclusive g-town sisterhood

The Hungarians were gone, replaced by three women in Smithsonian Museum security uniforms singing Whitney Houston. “And IeeeeIeeeI will always love you!”

Talk about painful.

The moment she hung up with Nate, Blair went over to the bar and ordered a pitcher of pink grapefruit margaritas for the table.

“You guys saved my life,” she told Rebecca, Forest, Gaynor, and Fran as she set the pitcher down. The girls’ heads wobbled drunkenly in response. Blair sat down, lit a cigarette, took a drag, and then passed it to Rebecca. “I’m just glad I got you as a tour guide, and not some loser.”

Rebecca passed the cigarette around, and the girls’ lip glosses combined to make a smudgy plum-colored stain on the filter. “Last month Forest was taking this prospective student around—a guy. They got caught by the dean of students practically doing it in the laundry room. She got fired by admissions.”

“Shut up,” Forest whined, but she was smiling.

Blair tried to imagine what her visit would have been like if her tour guide had been a guy, but knowing her luck, he’d have been a total geek. She stared at Forest, wondering if maybe she ought to say something about how Forest’s bleached-blond hair looked cheap and slutty and no wonder the admissions office didn’t want her to be a tour guide. But since she was drunk as a fish, she said something else entirely.

“So, are any of you still virgins?”

The four girls giggled and kicked each other under the table. Blair lit another cigarette, feeling slightly annoyed that she’d set herself up to admit that she was a virgin in front of four obvious skanks. “You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to.”

Rebecca blinked her eyes drunkenly in an effort to compose herself. “Actually, we all are. See, we made this pact.” She glanced around the table at her friends. “Georgetown doesn’t have sororities, but we sort of have one. We call it the sisterhood of celibacy.”

Blair’s eyes opened wide. She was about to get indoctrinated into some sort of virginity cult, and she was so drunk and upset and vulnerable, it actually sounded like a good idea.

“We aren’t, like, against fooling around or anything. God no. All of us have done just about everything but go all the way,” Gaynor clarified. She rubbed her pug nose. “We’re saving that for marriage.”

“Or at least true love,” Fran clarified. “I’m never getting married.”

“Fran’s parents have each been married and divorced three times,” Rebecca noted.

Blair stamped out her cigarette. Fuck Nate. Fuck Yale. All of a sudden she wanted nothing more than to pledge their little sorority. “Me too,” she admitted. “I mean, I’m a virgin, too.”

The four girls stared at her in amazement, as if they couldn’t quite believe that a sophisticated New York girl like herself had never once experienced sex.

“You totally have to join,” Fran said in her hoarse, intense whisper. “And when you go here, we’ll all be together. Not just until graduation, but forever!”

Blair put her elbows on the table and leaned forward, ready for action.
