It's the potential for love that grew from one another. Nate loved and kissed Serena or so he thought when as it turns out
it was little Jenny Humphrey. This was the scene that captured our hearts and made us think of the possibilities that may
be. And then when he knew what had happened he thought to apologize and give her chocolates only to have them stolen
away. When they were both down and out feeling unwanted at the party of the Queen that sat on the steps and talked. We
learned that they could be there for one another and never expected anything out of each other. For a moment it seemed as
though the friendship would not bloom but at the coming out ball Jenny watched Nate from above loving in what she saw.
Their friendship was confirmed when Nate helped Jenny with her fallen books – as in many a classic love – much to
the disgust of one Chuck Bass. She was the one however with the knowledge of Chuck’s dalliance with the fair Queen and
let it be clearly known to Nate proving that she alone could he trust. Next, when Jenny found herself at her darkest our, in her
deepest need it was Nate that she turned to. It was him alone who she turned to for help and he came to her aid as any good
prince charming. After that it seemed like it was all over, that they would never speak again even when a few feet from each
other. That all changed when Nate lost everything. There was only one place that would take him in – Jenny’s family because
they honestly care for his welfare. Living within such close proximity of each other encouraged their love; from accidentally
running into Nate in the apartment's bathroom to Nate coming to Jenny's work to hand-deliver her sketchbook, it was obvious
the two were falling for each other. At an art show Nate asked Jenny to hang out, and every fangirl's heart broke when the two
argued; however, our hearts were quickly repaired when Nate actually went to the artist to inquire about the boy Jenny had left
with. Jenny's knight in shining Armani, Nate, found her dancing around with two bad influences, and he whisked her away. And
then, outside of that apartment, it happened: the two kissed and set the dark on fire. For a week afterwards, Nate avoided Jenny
even though they lived in the same home. Of course, fate wouldn't let things stay that way forever; when Jenny was caught by Dan
while planning her guerilla fashion show, Nate came to her defense. In order to prove that he cared for her, Nate came with Jenny
to the fashion show and stayed throughout it; he was her support, her rock, and she needed him. In order to calm her down Nate
kissed her-- a suprise kiss-- a beautiful slow-motion kiss that melted our hearts. Unfortunately this kiss was captured and sent to
Gossip Girl, and when Dan saw this, he demanded that Nate get out of their home. Nate still stayed at the fashion show at Jenny's
request, and at the climax, when things were going so perfectly well, she ran into his arms and kissed him. However, just like any
other storybook tale, things went downhill after the climax; Vanessa saw them kiss, and Jenny ripped out of Nate's arms to go find
the girl to apologize. Before leaving town for the Hamptons, Nate sent Jenny a hand-written letter. While one may feel that this is
the end of the relationship, something tells us that this isn't so...

N: oh, Serena right?
J: that’s funny.

N: yeah, I know the feeling. Blair’s birthday present.
J: your mothers ring. Blair told me about, wow it’s beautiful.
N: I know, I’m supposed to give it to Blair tonight.
