17到25楼的原文用了好久才出来啊……最开始发的，过了半个小时才出来

"Do you have a problem?" Chuck calls him out, and Dan is tempted to say yes, I do have a problem. My girlfriend is in love with another guy, and she might not even know it. So yes Chuck f_сking Bass, I do have a problem. But instead he just shakes his head and chomps into a dry roll. Blair gives him a funny look (not quite pity, but close) and then sips her white wine.
Nate starts talking about his sail boat, and Dan has to stifle a groan. Serena's eyes light up at the mention, and she leans over and whispers something in Nate's ear. Nate laughs, and for a second her head rests on Nate's shoulder. It's only a second, but it's enough to make Dan's heart sink. When he looks across the table at Vanessa her face has fallen too, and he thinks maybe she's not as blind as she pretends to be.


“你有什么问题么？”Chuck挑出来质问他，Dan很想说，对，我是有问题，我的女朋友爱着另一个男人，也许连她自己都不知道！所以，是的！TMD Chuck Bass，我是有问题。可是，他并没有真的这么做，取而代之的是，摇了摇头，大口的嚼着嘴里的食物。Blair瞟了他一眼，不全是同情，不过也差不多了，接着她啜了一口手中的白酒。
Nate开始将他的那艘帆船，Dan感到自己快要窒息了，Serena双眼发光的靠向Nate在他耳边小声说了什么，Nate笑了，而她有一瞬间把头靠在了他的肩上。虽然只有一瞬间，但这已经足够让Dan感到内心的疼痛了。当他看隔过餐桌看向Vanessa的时候，她的表情也一下塌陷下来，也许她并不像她故意掩饰的那样，什么都没有注意到。


Serena suggests they all go to the boat after dinner, buy some cheap wine, listen to good music – fun times. Dan prays Blair will say no because she's in a bad mood. But she and Chuck have made up between the appetizers and the main meal and she happily agrees with the plan. Chuck still glares at him, but it's a slow burn instead of the intense heat it was before. Vanessa whispers something to Nate, but he just shrugs and tells Serena it's a great idea. Every idea Serena has, is great to Nate. Serena turns to Dan as an after thought and asks if he's in. He nods, and starts to say something, but she's already turned back to Nate.
She's touching his arm again.
It's a rainy Wednesday when he finds her sitting on a bench outside of the Palace. He's been calling her all afternoon but her voicemail is full, and she's not calling him back. He sits beside her even though the bench is wet, and his pants are now damp and uncomfortable. It's still drizzling out, and if she wasn't so beautiful she'd look like a drowned rat. He takes her hand, and she lets him hold it. He asks her what's wrong, but she just turns to him with this lost look in her eyes. He thinks he sees tears, but they mingle with the rain drops and he can't be sure. She's broken. He can see that clearly now, and it scares him, because he's not the one who broke her.


Serena建议晚餐结束后，大家一起去他的船上玩，买一些便宜的白酒，听着好听的音乐 – 欢乐时光。Dan祈祷Blair会拒绝因为她现在并不开心，可是在开胃菜结束，主菜上来之前，她和Chuck已经和好了，所以她很开心的同意了。Chuck依旧不时地瞟他一眼，一点一点缓慢地刺痛着他。Vanessa小声对Nate说了些什么，而他只是耸耸肩，赞同的表示Serena的建议很赞。Serena的每一个建议对Nate而言都很赞。Serena先斩后奏地转向Dan问他要不要一起去，他点了点头，刚要说话，她已经转回去看着Nate了。
她又在碰触他的胳膊了。
那是一个阴雨的星期三，他在皇宫酒店的外面看到她坐在长椅上。他一整个下午都在打电话给她，可是留言信箱说已经满了，而她一次也没有回过他的电话。他坐在她的旁边湿漉漉的座椅上，使得他的裤子变得潮湿而不舒服。天空依然飘着毛毛雨，如果她不是这么漂亮的话，一定看起来会像落汤鸡一样的。他握住了她的手，她并没有反抗。他问她怎么了，而她只是转过头迷茫地看着他。他隐隐地看到了她的泪水，可是和雨混在一起，他不能确定那到底是不是眼泪。他清楚地知道此刻的她心碎了，这让他感到害怕，因为击碎她的心的人，并不是他自己。


"What happened?" He manages to get out even though he doesn't really want to know. He's scared she'll decide to tell him the truth, and then all the dreams he has for the future will come crashing down around him. She is his future. That's what he's always believed, but is he her future? He's not sure, and what's even worse is that he doesn't think she is either.
"I'm fine." The way she says it is so emotionless, so cold that he's shocked into silence. She pulls her hand out of his, and folds it with her other in her lap. She stares down at her fingers like they're foreign objects. He doesn't know what to do or say, all he knows is he wants to make it better. He knows he can't though.


“出什么事了？”他试图理清前因后果，虽然他并不是真的想要知道。他有些怕她会对自己说出实情，接着自己对未来的一切幻想和期待都将在瞬间崩塌。她就是他的未来，他一直都认为如此，可是他也是她的未来么？他不知道，更糟的是，他觉得此刻的她甚至也许都不会出现在他的未来。
“我没事。”她面无表情冷冷地说道，这让他不知道要怎么接下去。她抽回自己的手，左右手握在一起夹在双腿之间。她低下头看着自己的手指，就像是什么她从来没有看到过的东西一样。他不知道自己该说些什么或做些什么，他只知道他希望能让这一切好起来，虽然他明白这并不在自己的能力范围内。


下班喽~~剩下的等明天了
========================================
He stands up and brushes at the back of his pants. He feels useless and used, and it's more horrible than he ever thought it could be. She looks up at him again, some silent pleading in her eyes, but he doesn't know what she wants him to do.
"Tell me…" he says without really knowing what he's asking.
"I can't," she murmurs as the wind picks up and the rain begins whipping again. Her phone buzzes in her pocket, and he doesn't have to look to know who's calling her. She exhales a loud breath, and it sounds a lot like relief. Did they fight? Did she think he wouldn't call her? He can't imagine the insecurities that she's acquired over the years where Nate is involved.


他站起身，抚平刚才坐下时裤子上的褶皱，他觉得不被需要以及被利用了的感觉，更可怕的是，他从来没有想到这样的事情真的会发生。她再一次看向他，眼神中但 着些恳求，可是他不知道她究竟想让他怎么做。
“告诉我……”他想都没想地脱口而出。
“我不能说。”她小声说，雨点在风的帮助下再次猛烈地拍打在 他们的身上。她口袋中的手机在震动，不用看他也知道会是谁打给她的。她呼出一大口气，听起来就像是一种释放，一种解脱。他们吵架了么？她以为他不会打给自 己么？他简直无法想象这种一连数年她都一直渴望着Nate的不安全感。 

"You should answer it," he tells her. She pulls it out of her pocket, and does just that. He tells himself she wouldn't have if he hadn't told her to, but it's a lie. He listens to her whisper softly into the phone. She greets him, she apologizes, and she assures him he wasn't in the wrong. She tells him she understands his point of view, and that she never meant to upset him. Dan wants to puke right there on the Palace steps. They talk for a few more minutes, and she starts to smile. Her eyes even turn a brighter shade of blue. The storm is passing, but then it returns suddenly. He's not sure what Nate says, but her face goes a shade greyer, and her eyes become downcast again. She murmurs a quick goodbye and then hangs up.
"Is everything okay?" He can't stop himself from asking. She shakes her head, but offers no more explanation. Anger rises up taking him by surprise, and making him sound sharper than he wishes. "I don't want to play games, Serena."
"No games," she agrees, but still says nothing more. 

“你应该接那个电话。”他对她说。她从口袋中拎出手机，按照他说的做了。他告诉自己，如果刚刚自己没有那样说，她就不会这样做，当然，这只是自欺欺人。他听着她对着话筒轻柔温和的话语，她向他问好，向他道歉，向他担保他没有做错，错的是她。她告诉他，她明白他的意思，她从来没有想要有意让他不开心。Dan想要立刻走到皇宫酒店的台阶那里去大吐特吐，这实在太恶心了。他们又讲了几分钟以后，她开始笑了，就连她蓝色的眼睛都开始变得明亮起来。暴风雨终于过去，可是新的暴风雨又来临了。他不确定Nate说了些什么，不过她的脸色又开始阴沉下来，眼睛又一次失去了光芒。她简短的说了句再见就挂断了电话。
“还好么？”他难以自控地问道，她摇了摇头，可是并不想解释。他突然地感觉到体内一股气恼猛然而生，他大吼道，“Serena，我不想跟你做什么游戏。”
“不是游戏。”她回应道，随后又沉寂下来。


"Tell me." This time it's a demand. She remains silence and he thinks she'll leave him hanging. But then she reaches out to him and pulls him back down beside her. He once again ignores the wet bench, and instead focuses on the feel of her soft hand on his damp skin. He wants to savor this touch, because he's afraid it will be their last.
"I'm sorry," she says, and it's ripped from somewhere deep inside her. The dam has broken and she begins crying again. She leans into Dan's chest, and he holds her. It's not lost on him that she's crying over another guy, but he can't bear to turn her away.
"Tell me," he whispers again.


“告诉我。”这一次，他的语气更像是在审问。她依旧保持沉默，他觉得她很快就要离开自己了。可是她又回在他走远之前把他再拽回来，如此若即若离。他再一次不顾长凳的潮湿，坐在她的旁边，他试图不要再胡思乱想，转而代之，再一次握住了她冰冷柔软的手。他细细的感受着这份感觉，因为他很怕这会是最后一次。
“对不起。”她说，发自内心的。防线再一次崩溃，她又开始大哭起来。她靠在Dan的胸前，他搂着她。很明显，她是在为了另一个男人而哭泣，可是他却无法把她丢在那里一走了之。
“跟我说说。”他又一次轻声要求道。


“我不能说。”她轻柔地回应道。他不知道她是在保护谁？他，她自己，还是Nate，或许她是在努力地避免三个人之间的纷争，虽然，她的努 力并没有达到预期的效果。他们都知道这一点。她和Nate正在吵架，而自己也更加苦闷。虽然Vanessa是这段四角恋的另一个角，可是看起来却更像是三 角恋一般。
“你必须告诉我。”他用不带有任何感情丄色彩的声音说道。他已经做好准备来承受故事的来龙去脉了，他已经做好准备放手 了。他一直是为了她而活着的，为她改变了所有他可以改变的，而这一切却是那么的微不足道，他终于看清了这一切。相比于她的王子，他只是一个马夫罢了，然而 这个女孩朝思暮想的却只有她的王子，虽然连她自己都不曾意识到这一点。他的头发是棕色的，而不是金色的；他的眼睛也是棕色的，而不是蓝色的；他身上的所有 都不是她所想要的，而她终于发现了这一点。他并不觉得Nate是那个值得拥有她的人，不过，这已经不重要了。
“我很糟糕……”
