The It Clique

The It clique: Chapitre deux

Champagne strolled down the street at a leisurely pace. Her thoughts wandered back to before as her ballet pumps padded through the lane.

A devious smirk appeared slowly on her face as she recounted what had happened at Esteemed an hour before.

Posh Warren’s face had been abso-bloody-lutely priceless! She snorted at the thought of it, and laughed out loud. Poor little Posh had dismissed herself from Esteemed immediately after that little “surprise” shower.

“Too bad there weren’t tears in her eyes,” Champagne mused snidely. “But then again, she probably went home to cry and weep in front of her Daddy.”

Champagne was in a much better mood than before. No one messed with her and didn’t pay the price for it. She smiled wickedly as she slapped her hands together in unison, as though removing invisible dust particles.

All in all, it had been a job well done.

Her friends though, hadn’t been as reassuring. Instead of understanding her motives for treating Posh so horribly, they seemed to be criticizing her instead!

Giselle and Chantelle had –in twin mode- simultaneously shrugged their shoulders carelessly, giving each other a meaningful look.

Lynette’s blue eyes had widened about an inch, and her perfectly glossed lips formed an “O” shape.

Estella had merely raised a perfectly plucked eyebrow, her fingers never stopping to rapidly text yet another person.

Once Champagne had assured them that what had happened had purely been an incident, they had seemed more relieved, and smiled at her, resuming their normal activities.

Lynette had interjected sweetly, “Don’t worry, Champagne, Posh seems like a really nice person, and I’m sure she’ll understand and forgive you!”

Champagne had smiled sweetly back at her, but she was seething with rage on the inside.

The very nerve and audacity of them to side with a total poseur and stranger instead of their long time alpha! And to even hint and imply that Champagne would be forgiven because Posh was such a benevolent soul?

Please. Champagne didn’t get forgiven, she hardly even forgave. And if Posh came back into their lives, she would personally make sure that she regretted it… for life.

That aside, Champagne was in a relatively good mood. The crisp smell of new leaves and spring flooded her olfactory senses. The birds were chirping melodiously, and the environment and atmosphere around her was serene and peaceful. On top of that, she was planning to give her boyfriend of three months a surprise visit at the park, where she knew he always went for his daily exercise routine.

A sense of serenity filled her, making her feel at ease. She was sure that Thomas would be glad to see her-things had been getting rather serious in their relationship, and she was planning to introduce him to her parents soon.

The best part about Thomas was, however, the fact that he was a rather famous actor, and he had starred in many lead roles before. This assured Champagne that he was not with her just to take advantage of her fame, money, and status, and she had been tremendously relieved. Before him, many of her past boyfriends had broken her heart after using her, and thus, she was grateful to have ever loyal Thomas by her side.

Thomas had ebony coloured hair, and perfectly chiselled cheekbones, with a pair of startling gray eyes to match his overall model-like image. Hollywood and gossipers had termed the duo as the perfect couple, and Champagne couldn’t agree more. She really liked him, and it had taken a long time for her to finally admit that to herself. She hoped that their relationship could last forever.
