"I hate this place!"
The words slipped out of Talia's mouth as she collapsed on her bed whilst Joey rested on her stomach. "Oh great, i've got my covers all dirty," She moaned. It was only the fifth time Ms Emmert had been in her estate this month and she decided she'd have a massive clear out. Of course, she needed the help of her friends at a moment like this.
Julz, at home. Clearin out house n craving pizza HELP!
Talia scrowled the guestbook of her trusted Blackberry and sighed. (One) Alexis was missing for an unknown reason (Two) She had no contact of Isabella since homecoming. Ever since that Constance Billard event, Talia had been more and more greatful for having Julianna in her life. Of course, she'd always be the second-in-command of Alexis. But she seemed to be more 'real' when Julianna was with her (Talia had always been quite conscious around Alexis about how to act). Finally, Talia's recently-done-french-manicured-thumb pressed Send.
Picking up her house phone, Talia entered a combination of numbers which lead to the basement kitchen and storage area. For five minutes, nobody responded. "Layne?... Hello?... LAYNE!" She barked over the phone impatiently when Talia could easily understand that Layne (Her house keeper) had been preparing her dry cleaning for her.
"Yes, Ms Emmert?" Talia sighed once she replied and glanced at her dust-stained bed covers. "Send me up some fresh bed covers will you? The usual colour, please." Hanging up, Talia looked around her master bedroom and grinned (Even though she had it decorated three months ago, she felt as if it was renewed every day).
Ms Emmert's room had been decorated with a modern theme. The walls had all been painted crisp white whilst all the other was white aswell (Leather couch, doors, carpet, Plasma TV etc.) and the only splash of colours came from Talia's bloodred bed covers and window curtains (Which covered a floor-to-roof length window). |

Julianna was lay on her bed listening to music when she felt her Blackberry shudder the bed. She just lay there for a second not wanting to get up from the comfy position she lay in. But she did in the end with a disbeleiving sigh pushing Dolly off her stomach. She grabbed the the contraption she still hadn't quite mastered and after a little random button pushing she got Talia's message up on screen. "Stupid damn thing..." she grumbled to herself beofre she read the message.
Julz, at home. Clearin out house n craving pizza HELP!
How did she know it was going to be something really important? She sighed again before she typed a message back, that was one thing she had figured out to do on this new phone thing of hers.
On my way and so is the Pizza, pepparoni, we're gonna get fat with all this junk! lol luv ya Juli x
She read the message over a few times checking she hadn't missed anything or spelt something really wrong before she clicked the little send button. She lay on the bed a few more seconds, still not wanting to get off her comfy bed, though she knew she had to. With a final sigh she climbed to her feet and headed for her walk in cupboard to find some shoes. Looking through them, [last time she counted she had 120 pairs] all of which had probiblly been worn once, twice at the most. She looked at her outfit in the full lenght mirror before she chose her shoes, red Jimmy Choo flats with her dark wash jeans and red and white spagety top. She had decided to wear cassual wear today since she hadn't planned on doing much. Once she had picked them out she headed out grabbing her porcha keys on the way out the door "Going to Tal's dad, don't know when i'll be back" she shouted though to her dad who sat watching TV in the main living room, a place Juli hardly ever ventured.
She climbed into the silver car and headed for Tallia's place. [/blockquote] |

Talia listened carefully to the soft foot steps up the spiral staircase as she quickly shuffled back into her wardrobe, Layne entered her room carrying both dry cleaning and bed sheets. "Ms Emmert? I have your things," Talia slightly smiled once she heard her speak and sighed once she left the room. "Joey, how the hell does she walk up those steps, carrying all my things with her scrawny little chicken legs?" She knelt on the floor (Next to Joey) as she waited for him to reply. One bark.
After a few minutes, Talia's pocket began vibrating frantically with a new text message. She perfectly knew it was Julianna because she always took quite long replying to a text (checking her message to perfection).
On my way and so is the Pizza, pepparoni, we're gonna get fat with all this junk! lol luv ya Juli x
A grin grew on Talia's face whilst she read Julianna's message but soon grew down, knowing she still had to get out of her pajamas. Turning her attention towards her clothing, Talia tapped her chin (inspecting most of her clothes) then still, it was only Julianna coming over. Talia pulled out a pair of Versace dark wash jeans, white babydoll and a dark pink plain cotton cardigan. Slipping her clothes on, Talia walked out of her closet and made her way to the window.
"Thank gawd," She mumbled once she saw Julianna's car pull up in the driveway (Of course, the security automatically let her in). Talia slipped LORAC Mocktail across her lips and fluffed her hair for ultimate perfection. All she had to do now, was wait. [/center] |

Juli pulled up infront of Tallia's place and climbed out of her 'get away' car, get away being the right word. She hated being stuck at home, the only good thing was there was her dogs. She looked up towards Tallia's window and smiled at her waving before she went to the door and knocked waiting for a second or two before she decided she'd just let herself in.
She flashed a white and cheery smile to Layne as she passed saying a quick "Hi" to her before she trotted up the spiral stairs towards Tallia's room knocking on the door lightly before she walked in "Tallia!" she squeeked in an exitable way. "Thank god you saved me from being stuck in all day" she complained collapsing onto her friends bed. She wasn't usually this 'make yourself at home' when she went to someones house, well, not to most people. But, when it came to her friends she was almost always like this, like they were with her when they came to her place. What were friends for? really? |

Taking the box of pizza from Julianna, Talia ripped out a slice and smiled. "Thats what im for, Jules," Chewing the doughy substance, Talia fell down on her onto her king sized bed on the other side of Julianna (The only off-putting thing of the pizza, was that she'd need to exercise later that day). "Anyways, I've finished clearing out so you dont need to get your hands dirty," Talia looked down at her hands and frowned. Her french manicured nails had been chipped and dirtied up. Something had to be done. After a few minutes of chatting, Layne re-entered into the room. Carrying a tray of virgin Pina Colada's with a grin plastered on her face. It was clear that Layne loved serving Julianna way more than Talia. Suddenly, the frantic vibrating of her phone repeated again with a new text.
hey Talia, its Krystina. I was wondering if maybe we could meet somewhere to talk about something. Maybe on the Steps ..monday?
let me know
thx
The frown on Talia's face grew stronger once she saw the message and attempted her best to hold in her scream. She failed. "Eh ma gawd, you'd never guess who just beeped me?" Talia wasn't scared of Krystina, she just couldn't tolerate her. How hard she tried, she was always there. [/center] |

Julianna grabbed a slice of pizza and smiled at Layne as she brought them the drinks. 'Oooh goodie' she thought to herself as she took a glass "Thank" she grinned greatfully.
She glanced at Tallia's nails when she did and frowned a little "Oh god Tal, I think I'm glad I missed out on the clearing out" she said with a small smirk glancing at her prefect set of nails. She didn't often lift a finger to chip them so they were almost always perfect and pristine.
Juli sat and thought who it could have been, no sparks. "Erm... who?" she asked dozely before she took a sip of her drink. |

Talia took a sip of her drink and finally smiled. Layne's virgin pina colada's were always a cure for Ms Emmert. "That Krystine girl, she want's to meet up at the school steps on Monday. Can you believe the cheek of her?" Of course, Talia once again tried to use one of Julianna's british expressions and failed poorly. Talia took another sip of her drink again, before putting it back onto her white coffee table to pick up Joey. "You should've totally brought Dolly along with you. They'd make a super cute match," After half a minute of thinking about what she said, Talia quickly denied that comment. Realising that Joey was a pampered, rich and spoilt male (on the verge of probably becoming gay). "Anyway, what am I going to do about Sydney?" Since Talia had no intention of befriending Krystina, she had no reason to call her by her given name. She thought Sydney would fit perfectly. [/center] |

Juli laughed when her friend tried to steel one of her sayings and shook her head a little. "Yes, the very cheek!" she said forcing a very english accent in a slightly mocking way. "What are you gonna say to her?" She asked as she took another long sip of her drink.
"I was going to... I forgot" she said. She really had intended on bringing her prized dog but she forgot, mainly because Dolly had ran off somewhere when she came to leave. Ahh well she thought. "Erm... You could just stand her up..." Juli said. That was a pretty bitchy thing coming from Juli but she really didn't like Kristine. I guss you could say you only got one real swing at winning Juli over. She was very much a 'first impression' kind of girl. |

Talia laughed at Julianna's comment whilst she let go of Joey (so he could return to his own mini couch). "You biatch Jules!" It usually ment nothing when Talia said that to people. Especially her friends, of course. Looking down at the screen of her Blackberry, Talia sighed and began to type a message.
Whatevs. Dont count on it. Talxxx
After reading the message five times, Talia typed in Krystina's cell phone number (well, she didn't have it in her guestbook) and pressed send. "It's been ages since we had a good ol' rivalry hasn't it?" Talia asked with a devious smile on her face. Joey barked loudly. Jumping back onto the bed, Talia looked back at her nails again as she finished her second slice of pizza. They'd finished it. |

Julianna laughed "What?" she said with her thin eyebrows raised as if she was shocked. "I Just dont like her" Julianna shrugged. She tapped her hands on her lap and called Joey over fussing over him. She wasn't really an animal person but when it came to dogs, Juli was in her element. She loved them. Well, small, cute ones. "Yeah, We've become way to nice" she smiling menesingly back.
She carried on fussing over Tallia's dog for a while before she let him go and looked back at her friend "So, what now?" she asked taking yet another sip of her drink. |

Talia laughed again at Julianna's sarcasm as she stood up and began walking around the room as if she was in the army. "As usual Jules, we have two options... Plan A is we carry on eating pizza, stop using the gym, buy clothes at the 'larger' shops and let Sydney breath down our necks for the rest of our lives," By then, Talia had been saying Krystine's 'new name' like how her mother would say 'poor'. "Plan B is we go down to my gym quickly (i'll lend you some sweats), then go down to Bergdoff to get my nails re-done and do a bit of shopping. Then I meet Sydney before she recieves a death wish." Talia was never really a subtle person. When she hated somebody, she could hold a grudge and say the meaniest things about them for a very long time. |

Juli giggled a little at her shaking her head 'Whats she doing' she thought to herself rolling her blue eyes at her a little. "As fun and care free as plan A is... I think I'll go for B... It's alot more... exiting" she laughed. She had to confess, she loved lounging around and being lazy sometimes, who really didn't? But she had to be in the mood and right now she was in the mood to do atleast 'something'. And she would never be caught dead in the Larger clothes shops, if it ever came to that, she swore to herself she would get lipo or become anorexic or even kill herself. Maybe all three, in that order. |

Walking into her closet, Talia quickly pulled out two pairs of Juicy Couture sweats and sneakers then through them onto her white leather couch. She was perfectly aware that her and Julianna were different sizes, but oh well. "Choose which colour you like, I have more if you dont like them," Talia loved lending out her clothes. It made her feel superior and wanted. A feeling which was oblivious to her when Alexis was there. Once again, frantic vibrating launched out of Talia's Blackberry. Sydney again.
Alright, well hopefully we can chat soon.
Krystina.
For a change, Talia's frown turned into an eye roll as she read the message twice. "I swear, that Sydney chick has this Sunday of peace and quiet until I go meet her," It only took a few minutes for Talia to reply back. Almost as if texting new students was apart of her life (which it wasnt, thank god).
Monday it is then, Sydney. Talxxx
After reading it, Talia quickly made a mental note. Not to call Krystina, Sydney face to face. It was a inside joke between Talia and Julianna then. Changing Sydney into Krystina, Talia pressed Send and dropped her phone on her coffee table. "If she texts me again, im going to through my Blackberry at her, this time." Talia picked up a pair of red Juicy Couture sweats with white and black Reebok sneakers whilst collapsing on her bed again. |

Julianna looked between the two pairs of sweat pants trying to decide which pair she wanted to wear. "Hmmm..." she murmered to herself before she picked up the black ones. She knew they wouldn't fit but she'd just tighten them so they didn't fall down. "Is she still bugging you?" she laughed about Kristine. It would take her a while to come around to the name 'Sydney' like it did for most things. It took a while for pretty much everything new to sink in with Juli. "Are you actually going to talk to her?" she asked walking towards the bed with the sweats hung over her arm. She wanted to get the gyming out of the way so they could go shopping. Besides, everyone knew that shopping was one the best exersise around, right?. Well, that was Julianna's theory, and it worked for her since she did so much walking when it came to shopping. |

Talia looked down at the pair of sweats and sneakers with a sigh. It was already four o' clock in the afternoon, and shops closed at nine in the evening usually at Bergdorf Goodmans. Taking the sweats out of Julianna's hands, Talia through the stack of Gym clothes back into her wardrobe with a devious grin. "Hey, shopping is an exercise," It was true. Usually when the group went shopping, they'd be walking around, non-stop for atleast five hours straight. "It's simple, really Jules," Okay, maybe it wasn't really simple. But Talia never really liked showing defeat. "I go meet her, she babbles on about random stuff. I stand there, nodding my head and if she wants to become friends? N-O." Maybe hardcore. But what the heck? It was three strikes and their out. (Strike One) Claiming her and Julianna were fake (Strike two) Sucking up after five minutes (Strike three) Having the nerve to arrange plans with Talia in private. And she's out |
