Chapter 6: Sari St. Mark
It was the Friday after the whole Esteban incident, and London had survived quite well. As she climbed out of the window and onto the Red Carpet in her red Jessica Wayne evening gown, her smile was a mile wide.
Maddie followed in her Raven Baxter Original pink floral strapless. Maddie also had a headset and recorder. She needed some good quotes and material for the Official London Tipton Fansite at and Maddie wanted it to be perfect, as she had spent 2 full days making the site flawless.
"Maddie!" someone yelled from the crowd. Maddie stopped and turned. A 9-year-old girl with a camera was waving. "Can I get a picture of you and London?"
"Sure!" Maddie said, calling London back over. Their backs to each other, they posed and gave a sweet smile. The camera flashed, and a yell of "THANK YOU!" was emitted from behind the fence around the carpet.
"Uh-oh," said London a few minutes later, stopping short.
"What?" asked Maddie.
"It's Sari St. Mark! She's heiress to the St. Mark throne, and she's dating Chris Brown. And she met Orlando Bloom but never got a restraining order!"
"Is that something special?" Maddie asked, watching the back of Sari St. Mark.
"Yes, because Orlando Bloom is a god! I, London Tipton, will not stand for this!"
At the sound of London's voice, however, Sari turned. Maddie could tell by taking one look at her that she was not one to be crossed.
Sari's hair was black, with a turquoise strand near the front to match her eyes and evening gown. Her lipstick was clear but so shiny that you could use it as a mirror, and Maddie figured she had used her whole stick of eyeliner in that one night.
"London," she said in an airy voice. "Good to see you... Oh, nice dress. Where'd you get it at? Cheap Charlie's?"
"Jessica Wayne," Maddie answered.
"Oh, and who's this?" Sari asked. "Your servant?"
"My Personal Assistant, Madeline."
"Nice to meet you," said Maddie, holding out her hand.
"Cute," remarked Sari. Maddie dejectedly put her hand down. "Tell Willie that Daddy said hi. Toodles!"
With that, Sari moved up the carpet and spit her gum out. It landed on someone's shoe, and they fainted in delight.
