  • Has a sexual relationship with her chemistry teacher.
  • She was once pregnant but had a miscarriage early on. David is the only one who knows.
  • Has a side job as an escort. She puts half of the funds made from this job into her own bank account no one knows she has. The rest of the money goes to her family.
  • She has been attracted to the Queen B's number one minion ever since she laid eyes on her. She hasn't exactly come to terms with this either.

  • She had an intimate night with Lex a few weeks back.



Image[Biography]
Melody Rose Bennett was born in the cold winters of December in New York City to Adam and Genevieve Timbleton. She was taken away from her biological parents when she was the frail age of six months and was adopted by the Bennett family. To this day Melody has no idea she was adopted and has always believed the Bennett's were her biological family.

Growing up she found interest in the lives of the social elite of Manhattan and has always dreamed of attending their school. After working hard to keep her grades up in order to get a scholarship, both her and her older brother received a full ride to St. Jude's and Constance Billard. Of course her brother didn't want to attend the school because he hated the elites but after a lot of pleading and begging, she finally talked David into attending with her.

Going on the second year as a student at the school, Melody was able to pick up information on the lives of the elites she never would've known about if she weren't at the school. Now that she had enough information about them, she was going to try to climb up the social ladder this year, no matter what it took. Melody knows her brother hates the elites, so she tries to keep her thoughts and opinions about them to herself when she is around David. The last thing she needed him to know was that she was working on trying to become one of them.

When she isn't up to any mischief, she is working the field as an escort to make a bit more money for herself and her family. Melody has been doing this for almost three years now and has even saved a few thousand dollars for herself in her secret bank account. The other half of the money she doesn't save from this side job goes directly to the bills for her family.

So begins...

Gossip Girl
Hey Upper East Siders,
Something tells me this will be a fun year for us.
Spotted: Aubree Koch at Grand Central. A sudden disappearance makes for a sudden reentry. What's our former Queen B been up to for the past year? And now that she's here will she be taking back her crown? Did her pals miss her or will she get the cold shoulder? Stick with me and you'll find out.

Xoxo,
Gossip Girl




Image
Aubree Koch

It was weird being back. After a year of being away everything looked the same but so different at the same time. Its like she was seeing it through new eyes, a new perspective. She didn't know whether that was a good thing or not but she hoped it was good.

She made her way of the train. She could hear her heels clicking with every step she took. It seemed to overpower all the other heels in the station. They echoed off the walls. It was starting to irritate her. Her mom was supposed to pick her up in five minutes and she couldn't remember where she was supposed to get the rest of her bags. You would think living here your whole life you would know these things but she never had to do it herself really.

After ten minutes she finally found them and hooked one on her arm and pulled the handle in order to roll the other. She hadn't gotten the chance to tell anyone why she left. She hadn't even been able to say goodbye to her best friend Ana. She hoped she would let her explain before tossing her aside but knowing Ana she probably wouldn't.

"Bree! Bree!"

She hadn't heard that name in a long time. She turned to see her very beautiful mother waving and smiling at her. Bree ran wards her as fast as her heels could take her and they hugged. It wasn't a fake hug it was real. She and her mom had bad times but Aubree really did miss her.

"Let's go home. You can tell me all about it."

Chloe Blackburn
The annual back to school party. It was something Chloe threw every year for the students of Constance Saint Jude Prep School. At least all the students relevant enough to invite. She over saw every detail, the food, the dÊcor, the guests, the booze. Whats a party without a little booze. She was pleased with how things turned out this year. No outsiders has the nerve to show their faces...yet.

She was wearing through the random dance floor that was created by a bunch of half drunk half horny teens to get herself a drink when her phone got an alert. Gossip girl. She stopped and read the post, seeing the picture of her former Queen B back after hearing nothing from her for nearly a year. She clicked her phone off and set off to find Ana, forgetting all about the cocktail she had concocted in her mind just minutes before.

――――――☆――――――
Mel sat at home in her room getting everything ready for the first day of the junior year which was just around the corner. This was the year she was going to climb the social ladder, there was no doubt in her mind she wasn't going to succeed. Especially since she now had Lex and Ava on her side, the latter of course was a secret friendship. If Ana ever found out about this friendship, she knew for certain things wouldn't turn out well for either of them.

Her phone pinged, signaling a new message from Gossip Girl. Aubree was back. The infamous Queen B she heard all about and never had the pleasantries of meeting her. At this point she wondered how Ana, the new heir of the throne was going to handle this news. Most likely it wasn't going to be handled well. From what she heard, Ana wasn't too happy about how Aubree just seemed to vanish without a single word to her best friend.

To: Lex
Hey. I was wondering if you wanted to do something after the party. I'd really like to see you before school starts.

Mel climbed out of the chair in the left corner of her room and headed down towards the kitchen, where she spotted her brother."Where are Mom and Dad? They said they were going to be back home in time for lunch?" Mel always looked forward to their family meals because they weren't common with their household. It was always either just her and her brother or just them and one of their parents. Their parents always seemed busy with the coffee shop or anything else that they claimed needed their attention more than their family meals. Most of the time Mel understood, but it just seemed like it began to happen more and more lately. She started to feel like their family was starting to slowly fall apart. Whatever was going on, it didn't feel right to Mel. Something was off.

[ Location: Ci-Ci's Party ]

With a cigarette in hand Lex sat at the edge of the party in a small booth watching the rest of the party goers. He laughed to himself as he imagined the chaos and fun he would undoubtedly have this school year.

A message from Gossip Girl appeared on Lex's phone. He rolled his eyes as he looked down at the message, thinking of what useless news would be out today. It turned out that it wasn't useless, The Queen was back. Lex smiled to himself, thinking of his past relationship with Bree and looking forward to seeing her again.

The majority of those considered to belong in "high society" surrounded him and Lex couldn't help but feel that he could be having a lot more fun somewhere else. As soon as that thought entered his mind he received a text from Mel, one of his new "friends".

Reading the message gave Lex an interesting idea. He replied; Why wait til after? You could just come to the party. No one will throw you out if you're here with me. With an amused look on his face The Devil walked among the rest of those at the party, looking for something interesting to do as he waited for Mel's reply.

Spotting Ci-Ci and Ana he walked towards them, interested in what they were talking about.

Knowing that Ana may be feeling the effects of withdrawal DJ sent her a message saying, Are you feeling alright? If you need me just hit me up. While sending the message he didn't notice Mel walk into the kitchen. He placed his secondary phone in his pocket nonchalantly, trying to not draw attention to it while cooking.

DJ thought for a few moments, trying to think of where his parents would be. Replying, "More than likely they're still at the coffee shop, closing up. They sent me back home early to start working on dinner".

He then turned around to look at her. "You're welcome by the way. Wouldn't want to see my lil sis burning down the house", DJ said jokingly.

Home life hadn't been easy recently with DJ and Mel's family facing some financial difficulties. DJ had begun working part-time at the coffee shop to help out his parents while also providing some funds with what he earned with his side "business".

He didn't want Mel to worry about anything like that so he tried to support the family as well as he could but he knew Mel wasn't stupid. She had to know how bad the situation had gotten with their family but he couldn't help but want to shield her from that harsh fact.

Grabbing some spices from the cabinet he began to season the food on the stove top. "Hope you don't mind stir fry vegetables... Someone forgot to go shopping and we are severely lacking in protein... Unless you want some of my protein powder mixed in. Which I doubt."

DJ tried to keep things light between him and his sister Mel, trying to protect her and also to try and mask his biggest secret. His infatuation towards her, his sister.

Interacting With: Mel and DJ Bennett

"Elle, darling, maybe you'll find this one interesting." Jillian proceeded to read the latest post from Gossip Girl aloud to her daughter, who couldn't be less interested. After she was finished, all Elle could offer up was a half hearted "huh". She looked up from her book to see her mom giving her a disapproving glare. "If you don't keep up with this Gossip Girl, how will you know what's happening at your school? How will you know who to be friends with?"

Well Mom, I do go to this school and I heard plenty of stories already last year. And I don't want to be friends with any of these rich brats even though you keep trying to make me, Elle thought to herself, though she dare not sass her mother. "I don't think I need to keep up with her when you have it covered already Mom."

Jillian gave her another disapproving look. Elle gave her mother the best fake smile she could, which seemed to satisfy her. After a few more moments of awkward silence, the teen closed her book and stood up. "Oh, I forgot to tell you-- DJ and Mel wanted to get together tonight before school starts tomorrow. Could I go over to their house for a few hours?"

Her mother sighed before nodding. "As long as you're ready for your first day tomorrow. Make sure to tell your father you're leaving." Elle thanked her mom before going to her room.

Once safely inside she texted Mel and DJ: I hate to invite myself over, but could I hang out with you guys for the night? She didn't want to be stuck discussing Gossip Girl's latest posts with her mother all night, nor did she want her parents bearing down on her about her grades before the school year had even begun. Of course she couldn't mention the latter to her friends, but she never felt she had to explain her reasons for going over to their home unless they asked. As she waited for a response she put on her shoes and threw a sweatshirt into a bag to take with her.

"More than likely they're still at the coffee shop, closing up. They sent me back home early to start working on dinner." Mel just nodded her head at his answer, even though she knew he didn't see her nod.

"You're welcome by the way. Wouldn't want to see my lil sis burning down the house", DJ said jokingly. "Haha, very funny," she responded with a sarcastic tone. Just because she didn't cook very often it didn't mean that she didn't know how to. At that moment her conversation was interrupted by a response from Lex. She read the message and a smirk appeared upon her lips.

To: Lex
"Very true. c: I'll be there shortly."

Mel sent the reply to Lex and stood to her feet as she heard her brother began speaking again, "Hope you don't mind stir fry vegetables... Someone forgot to go shopping and we are severely lacking in protein... Unless you want some of my protein powder mixed in. Which I doubt." "As much as I would love to have your wonderful stir fry veggies, I have a party to go to. I'll have to eat when I get back," she started as she slid her phone into her back pocket and started towards the door. "Save me some?" she added just before she closed their front door behind her.

Mel knew she was going to definitely hear it from DJ, but right now she had an invite to one of the parties of the elite. There was no way she was going to pass this up. Especially since she would be able to see Lex sooner. She has no idea what it is about that guy but she enjoys spending time with him.

Once the female was out on the street she called down a taxi and gave him the destination of the party before riding along in silence. During the ride to the party, she received a message from Elle. Mel hated to tell her she would be going to this party, but it was one step closer to being where she wanted to be.

To: Elle
"I'm going to the back to school party. I'll have to see you when I get home. Sorry, Elle.

Mel knew she just disappointed her best friend and she knew she wasn't going to hear the end of it, but she needed this.

It took no time at all for her to arrive. Mel paid the driver and climbed out of the vehicle before making her way into the building to begin scouting out Lex.

x Ava swirled her hips in the middle of the dance floor, smile wide like she was enjoying the party; but her attention was elsewhere. Every couple minutes, she snuck a peek at her phone, angled the screen so no one could see without trying especially hard, and typed with expert speed. Unlike most, she didn't have to wait for the notification of Gossip Girl's update - she was already looking at her phone.
x Aubree was back. What that meant for the rest of them, she wasn't sure, nor was she about to wait to find out. Her eyes scanned the party as she weaved her way through the crowd, careful to keep the smile placed firmly on her face. Once she spotted Ana and CiCi, she sent a few quick 'business' texts, and was just about to turn the corner when she saw Lex headed their way. Before she had time to ponder the possibilities of that interaction, a freshman ran past her, crying. From the look on CiCi's face, Ava was sure the fresh spill on the girl's blouse had been put there on purpose.
x With a sigh, she decided gossip updates could wait just a few more minutes, and followed the crying freshie into the kitchen - but not without checking to make sure no one saw. "Hey, now," Ava cooed, tilting her head at the girl, who blushed furiously at being seen in such a state. "Happens to the best of us. You look about my size-" that was a lie "-let's get that in the wash, and you can borrow one of my shirts. Sound good?" The moment she was given a nod, Ava snuck the girl over to the laundry room, plucked a blouse from the pile of folded clothes (the maids left them there whenever Ava accidentally left her dirty clothes behind during sleepovers), and asked one of CiCi's maids to clean up the rapidly staining one. "Don't tell Chloe, okay?" She winked at the girl as if she was joking, but they both knew she wasn't - or, at least, Ava assumed that was so. The maids certainly knew the deal by now.
x After slipping back into the main room, she had just enough time to falter at the conflicted look on Ana's face before she saw none other than Melody Bennett walk in. Moments later, in walked the star of the most recent Gossip Girl update herself: Bree. Ava's eyebrows would be hard pressed to raise any higher. She cleared her throat and shook her head, trying her best to mix the smile back onto her lips. She pulled out her phone, typing as she weaved through the crowd toward the bathrooms.
To: Melrose
I spy with my little eye an unexpected guest... ;p
Nice to see you, but what are you doing here?
x Instead of talking directly to Anastasia, she sidled up next to the official host of the party. "C, we have a problem. Bree is here." She realized that, given the timing, that might not sound like news, so a split second later, she added, "Here here."

x Ezra sighed and suppressed the urge to roll his eyes when he got the Gossip Girl notification. At least half the reason he even bothered to check it was simply to get rid of the notification. He'd been tempted to rid himself of the thing altogether, block it out, but such a social blunder simply wasn't worth the effort; especially considering what a big deal his friends made of it the last time he went so much as a few days without checking Gossip Girl.
x His tune soon changed, as soon as he saw what the update was about. He let out a low whistle and set down his (mostly untouched) drink, both hands going to his phone.
To: Ana ♡
Where'd you go?
x He ran his hands through his hair a few times, and started edging around the crowded main room of the party in search of his girlfriend. While Bree's return didn't affect him much, he wasn't sure how Ana would respond.
x A stir seemed to move through the dance floor, drawing his eyes to the source of the commotion: Aubree's entrance. Ezra flat out laughed, at first; however, the realization that such a twist could easily ruin Ana's night sobered him quickly. He was about to text her again, when he spotted his 'Queen' near the hallway that lead to the bathrooms. He tried to smile as he walked over - taking strides at least 1.5x the length of his normal step - and slid his arm around Ana's shoulders. She looked paler than usual, and he could swear he felt her shaking against him. He barely acknowledged the others around them before leaning down to whisper in her ear, under the guise of a chaste kiss on the cheek. "You okay?"

[ Location: Ci-Ci's Party ]

The party was starting to bore Lex as he waited for Mel to arrive. He had seen Ci-Ci knock into one of the freshmen and the subsequent flying drinks, which was rather typical for Ci-Ci. Lex chose not to intervene, mainly because this was Ci-Ci's party and he didn't want to annoy her, too much tonight.

Lex noted some movement towards the entrance of the party, apparently something interesting was happening. When he began to part the crowd which had gathered at the entrance he noticed Mel but he doubted that this would be the reason for the commotion. Surely something else was up. It was then that he noticed Bree enter the party as well, something which really intrigued him.

He walked over towards Mel, grabbing a drink from an unsuspecting guest before they could drink from it, walking behind Mel and wrapping his arm around her shoulder while placing the drink in her hand. "Evening love, looks like you've arrived at a rather fortunate time... Let me introduce you to an old friend."

While he walked with Lex he noted how some of the people at the party were watching her. "Don't worry much about them love... They'll learn, to either grovel at my feet or... perhaps yours one day."

When he was in front of Bree he held his hand out to shake her hand while his other was held on Mel's hips. "Well well... Welcome home Queen, the ignorant masses await but before that... This is Mel, I'm sure you will find her as beautiful and useful as I do."

"Of course I'll save you some... Wait what?!", as soon as DJ had realized what Mel had said he had turned to confront her, only to find that she had already left. He cursed at himself for not being able to stop her from leaving to whatever party was happening.

Feeling his phone vibrating DJ had taken his primary phone out and saw Ele's text. Replying to it DJ sent a message which read, Sure, you can come over. Mel just headed out but... Before he could finish his text he felt his other phone, his business one, vibrate. Seeing a message from Ana.

He then replied instead to Ana, writing, Will get there as soon as I can. Hold on for now. Grabbing his "supplies" and his backpack DJ prepared to leave. With his dinner cooked he covered and placed it into the oven, leaving a note on the fridge for his parents about the dinner he left them.

Walking outside he locked the house and walked towards Elle's place, writing her a message. Elle, Mel left for the party and I'm gonna follow her to make sure she doesn't get into too much trouble... I know this isn't really your thing but... maybe this could get your mother off your back for a little bit. DJ hated asking this of Elle because he knew how much she didn't want to be involved with the "elites" but he had to go.

Writing another message to Elle he wrote, I'll be waiting outside your place. Whatever you decide I'll be okay with, whether you come with me or not... But if you do come, I will owe you a day without any of this bullshit... Just you me... and Mel, if you want. Whatever it is... I will deliver.

Leaving that last message DJ waited outside Elle's place, hoping she would come with him.

――――――☆――――――
It wasn't long that Mel was there before she received a message from her secret friend, Ava asking her what she was doing at the party. Of course she was going to be asked because Mel clearly told Ava she wasn't even going to attempt to go because she didn't feel up to dealing with any drama that night. But for some reason, Mel felt drawn to see Lex and attending this party was the way it was going to happen tonight.

To: Ava
Lex wanted me here, so I came.


Mel sent the message and the second she slid her phone into her pocket, she felt an arm wrap around her shoulder. Immediately she knew who it was. "Evening love, looks like you've arrived at a rather fortunate time... Let me introduce you to an old friend."

At those words, she had a feeling who he was speaking of. The old Queen had returned and she noticed all the commotion going on moments after she arrived, it had to of been about Aubree. As they began walking towards the person she immediately knew was none more than Aubree Koch, she felt many eyes being glued to every movement she made. "Don't worry much about them love... They'll learn, to either grovel at my feet or... perhaps yours one day."

Mel smiled a bit at his words and was quite shocked that Lex even thought they would grovel at her feet one day. Mel hoped that she would be able to climb to the top of the social ladder by the end of the year, but she didn't know Lex believed she could do it. But now it was time for her to meet the infamous Queen who had returned to possibly retake her throne.

When the two of them arrived in front of Aubree, Mel felt his hand retreat down to her hips while his free hand was held out towards Aubree to shake her's. "Well well... Welcome home Queen, the ignorant masses await but before that... This is Mel, I'm sure you will find her as beautiful and useful as I do." When Mel was finally introduced, she gave a friendly smile and held out her hand, "It's nice to meet you," she stated.

Oddly enough, Mel was actually a bit nervous to be meeting Aubree for the first time. She was the one she always looked up to while she was watching Gossip Girl throughout the last couple of years before she even got accepted into Constance. Mel didn't want to make a bad impression on Aubree, she could be one of her ways towards the top.

It's rude to show up uninvited, Bree. That's right, she's at Chloe's one and only back to school party. She may not be a queen anymore, but she can still get all eyes on her as she parts a crowd. Is she surveying her old territory, waiting to strike? Or did she really just stop by for a little fun?

The Devil and his current lady friend weren't afraid to say hello. Let's see if our favorite trio will do the same

As she left her room, Elle received a text from Mel. She sighed and typed out her response: Ok. Have fun but please be safe and don't get into trouble. After she sent it she went down the hall to Avery's old room, which was now a dual office space for her parents. Her father was sitting at his desk, typing away. "Dad, I'm going over to Mel and DJ's for awhile. Mom said it's fine." He gave her a small "mhmm" as he continued typing.

Walking back down the hall towards the stairs, she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She checked it and it was a text from DJ. She couldn't blame him for wanting to keep tabs on Mel. She'd been hanging around Lex as of late and that could only spell trouble, at least in Elle's opinion. She descended the stairs and said goodbye to her mom, purposefully omitting that her plans had changed. As soon as she got to the door, she got another text.

After reading it she smiled, thinking of the good old days when the three (or four when Avery was still there) of them would just hang out for hours without any of this elite nonsense. She walked outside of her house and saw DJ out on the sidewalk.

"So if I want to go to Antartica or the moon, you'll take us there?" she asked as she walked out to meet him. "Because it's truly been my dream to become a human popsicle." She gave him a quick hug. Though tempted to ask why he had his backpack, she couldn't help but feel that it'd be a bit hypocritical when she herself had brought a drawstring bag.

"So, shall we journey into the den of---?" She stopped as she noticed a taxi coming down the street. She quickly hailed it before turning back to DJ. "Lions. I was going to say lions." Elle opened the door and climbed into the back seat, scooting to the far side so that DJ could get in. Her mouth opened to tell the driver where to go, but she realized that she didn't actually know the address. She looked to DJ, hoping that he knew.

x Though he couldn't help but notice the hostility rolling off Chloe, Ezra couldn't find it in him to care right that moment. The sob that escaped Ana, as singular as it was, was enough to grab all of his attention. It was rare to see her display such a display of vulnerability, even to him. Instinctively, he shifted his stance so he was in front of her but still had one arm around her, shielding Ana from the view of others.
x "I'm okay, baby. I just.. I'm fine." He didn't believe her, not for one second. Though Ezra knew nothing of her addiction, he knew her well enough to know when something was seriously wrong - he simply misdiagnosed the problem. Assuming the problem was Bree's return, he lifted his other hand to brush her hair behind her ear, further blocking her view so that no one else could see her tear-stained cheeks and, hopefully, she couldn't see that Bree had joined the party.
x When she turned her attention to her phone, he released her shoulders to trail his fingertips up and down her arm while taking the opportunity to look around. He saw Chloe talking to Ava, and Bree walking away from Lex and Mel. He briefly wondered when those two became friends, but turned his gaze back to Ana before she looked up from her text message. The peck was over so quickly he couldn't really return it, but he moved his left arm around her waist and let his right hand sneak back into her hair afterward. "For real, baby, I'll be okay. Don't worry about me."
x "Impossible," he told her in a tone that meant he was joking, mostly. He might not be in love with Ana, but he still loved her, more than enough to care about keeping her safe and tear-free. He pulled her closer and kissed her slowly, brushing noses and leaning his forehead against hers when he pulled away. "Wanna step outside for a minute? Get some air?"
x Then another Gossip Girl notification came. Ezra suppressed the urge to growl at it. He started to step back to give Ana room to check the update, out of habit, but immediately realized that it was probably about Bree showing up to CiCi's party; so instead, he went out of his way to distract her from it. His hands slid down her arms and he took her hands in his, stepping backward without letting his face get more than two inches away from hers. He smiled and brushed his lips over hers a couple times before kissing her again. "C'mon, let's go."

――――――☆――――――
Aubree politely shook Mel's hand as she spoke,"You as well. If you'll excuse me I'm looking for someone," The old Queen then let go of Mel's hand and slid past herself and Lex before she stopped to speak to Mel one last time. "I would be careful who I befriend, Mel. Not everyone has your best interest at heart." Without another word, she just went her own way, leaving Mel and Lex alone again. At that moment, she noticed Chloe saw her at the party. The female decided to just ignore it until it came up, which it most likely would, knowing how Chloe was.

"What was all that about?" she questioned. Sure, she knew Lex wasn't exactly the nicest person around, but he never seemed to hurt Mel. At least not yet anyway.

Moments later the entire room filled with notification sounds, signaling that another Gossip Girl post had shown up. Mel pulled out her phone, seeing she had a text from Elle as well. She opened the Gossip Girl post first and read it. She smiled a bit when she noticed that she was finally part of one of the posts. Mel just took one of her first steps into this world and it was all thanks to Lex.

She then read the message from Elle, seeing that the message was sent a little over thirty minutes ago. Seeing that she was doing her whole, don't get into trouble lecture, just like a parent would do she just smirked and shook her head. That was typical of Elle.

To: Elle
Of course I'll be careful...Mom :P

Mel sent the message and slid her phone back into her pocket, focusing all of her attention back onto Lex. "I know there has to be alcohol at this party. I'm pretty sure I could use a dose of it," she stated, hoping that Lex would know where to find it.
