Travis' POV

Lily, drinking her imported water, that Audrey gave her, spat it out. She regretted it indeed. The water was all over Audrey's face. Taking her napkin, she dapped her face, as Lily blushed uncontrollably. I tried to keep my laughter from escaping my mouth,

"I am so sorry! But, going to those poise and manner classes? I already have perfect manners Audrey!" Lily said. Lily was currently wearing navy jeans and white shirt with the words "Like plus Like equals Love". Courtesy of Audrey.

We were in Mickey's and Audrey was trying to get Lily to come with her at her afternoon classes. Doesn't she know that Audrey is just trying to help her become a better Gold?

I looked at Audrey, who had a "look" on her face. A "look" is what Audrey's classic for. This look was the uh-huh-not-really look. "Lily-kins," she tried to coax her. Lily-kins? I thought. That was actually pretty catchy, "You just spit water on my face and didn't even give me a napkin."

I nodded as Audrey wiped her face, then put some lipstick on perfectly, smacking her lips together. "She's right, Lily-kins." Lily gave me a disgusted look, as if to say don't call me that!

Her look looked familiar...it was Audrey's look! God, Lily is a great wannabe...but she knows the ropes already. She learns quickly, if I do say so myself. It was kind of like what Ray said while we were walking home together. 'She's really interesting.' I snorted. It seemed like Ray had a tiny crush on Lily.

"So, today. 5. Meet me at the corner of Main Street. Got it?" Audrey said, her chair screeching as it got up. I followed after her, and I heard protests from Lily such as, B-but, NO. I can't! I have to baby-sit...but after a while, she got over it and just plain pouted. Audrey didn't pay attention to it. Neither did anyone else.

So, finally when 5 o'clock rolled around, I was there on the corner with Audrey. Lily was late, Audrey was pissed, and I was enjoying this. It was 5:01 when Lily showed up. Yeah, that's late in Audrey- terms. "You're late." Audrey said, ticked off.

"It's only 5:01!" Lily retorted, trying to keep her dignity. Sorry Lily- kins, but when my honeybunch gets mad...she gets mad.

"Whatever." Audrey said coldly and then strutted off, as we followed. Lily looked kind of miserable; she wanted to be Audrey's friend, but after the spitting-water-on-her-face and being one minute late...I didn't really think that she would become her chum anytime soon.

I caught a glimpse of Audrey's face and it was the, 'who-does-she-think-she-is-standing-me-up- when-I-have-more-social-status?' look. And then after Lily was just walking there looking depressed, she blinked a couple of times and looked up at me.

She tried to ask politely to me, "What're you doing here?"

I was about to say, just here for the ride, but Audrey was so pissed, she swerved around, and then half-yelled, "He's. My. Boyfriend. And he's a Gold and he's here to see that you don't act up. Kim's orders." she turned around again, and then quietly said, "Though you've already acted up enough."

I guess Lily was just really angry, or she was really, really humiliated or just really, really, really annoyed at Audrey's attitude. It didn't really matter which one, but she didn't half-yell this comment folks. She yelled it. "BITCH."

That stopped Audrey cold. "What did you just call me?" her voice was calm, and she didn't even turn around yet. She was just standing there, and Lily was just right behind her. No one was moving. You could hear the wind. The other people did take notice, but they just quickly went into a shop or pretended they didn't say anything.

Lily's voice wobbled as she said, "I called you a, a..". but then she stood up straight with a firm voice. "A bitch! I said I was sorry about the incident before and I was only one minute late. I don't get you!

"And then when I try to ask your boyfriend here a question," she jabbed a finger at me, "A measly question, you yel at me! So yeah, I called you a bitch because you are acting like one!" Then she took a deep breath. Wow Lily...I thought.

Then, Audrey turned around, a pleasant look on her face. She planted her hands on Lily's shoulders and smiled. "Awesome Lily!" It took me a minute to figure out what happened and when I did, I started clapping. The newbie just stood there, blinking and was totally lost.

"You see Lily, this was a test…we Golds need to see if you have the attitude! When someone treats you wrong you have stand up for yourself. You did that. Nice job!"

Lily was still shocked. "Oh...my...god..." she whispered. I could tell she thought the Golds were totally insane.

"And, I am a bitch for your information. Everyone tells me that." my girlfriend said, a grin still planted on her face.

"But…? Wait...? That was a test?" Lily was still trying to put the pieces together.

I nodded and then spoke, "Kim has still a bunch lined up for you. So be on your toes." I checked my watch. "Oh shi-we are going to be late. Come on, Destinee doesn't tolerate tardiness." Destinee was the owner of the place and she was worse than Audrey.

Actually Audrey could stand being stood up but sometimes when she's in a bad mood she gets pissed, kind of like before. But Destinee...she was hell. Pure evil. Why Audrey took her class, I'll never know.

Audrey grabbed Lily's hand, which was still just confused. I guess after calling Audrey a bitch and then being congratulated for it must have been odd. Then after 10 minutes, we came to a nice big building which lots of windows. We entered, our faces flushed. Destinee, the teacher was standing right there, not looking too happy.

Oh crap.


Hahahaha! It's weird isn't it? Audrey pretends to be mad at Lily, then Lily calls her a bitch, and then Audrey congratulates her...
