where she and her friends Jane Tremont and Belinda Martin went for lunch every day.

    Belinda and Jane were Liz's best friends at P-B. They were both smart, funny, and well-off, but nothing like

    Cameron and Mimi von Fallschirm. Cameron's and Mimi's parents were multimillionaires many times over. Jane and Belinda's families were, well, just regular rich, not crazy rich.

    Liz was looking forward to telling Jane and Belinda about the evening when, suddenly, she noticed a Maybach gliding alongside her in the street. Liz turned to look at it. At P-B, the girls learned (though not in class) which cars were worth looking at, and with a price tag of $300,000, a Maybach was worth a stare.

    Suddenly, the window rolled down and a blond girl leaned forward.

    It was Cameron.

    Liz winced, prepared for a scene.

    "Liz," Cameron called. "It's Cameron, Cameron Warner."

    Liz turned. She knew exactly who Cameron was.

    "Hey," she said uncertainly as the car stopped.

    "Where are you going?" Cameron asked in a friendly voice.

    "The Salad Patch," Liz answered."I was going to grab lunch with Jane and Belinda."

    "Ugh!" Cameron said, laughing and opening the car door."Lunch at the Poison Patch? Come to lunch with us! We're just zipping over to Park Avenue for lunch at Mimi's."

    Liz stared. Was this really happening? Was Cameron invit- ing her to Princess Mimi von Fallschirm's house for lunch?

    "Are you coming?" Cameron asked."Or do you really prefer those crappy salads?" She raised her perfectly tweezed eyebrows.

    Liz stepped forward into the car, taking a seat next to Cameron. Jane and Belinda will understand, she thought.

    "Mimi, this is Liz. She was at the party last night." Cameron explained.

    Mimi von Fallschirm looked at Liz with an approxi- mation of a smile on her face.

    "I'm so glad you guys called last night. I was at the opera with my parents," Mimi said, extending her hand, which glittered with several tiny sapphire and diamond bands."It was so boring, I thought I was going to die.Then I got Cam's text about the party, told my mom I was sick, and came right over. So much more fun than Tannh�user." She smiled. Mimi had long, straight, ebony-colored hair and skin that was so white, it was almost unnerving. Her nose, which was a little crooked, wasn't quite pretty, but it gave her face character. The imperfection didn't matter when you were a princess.

    "We're just doing a quick lunch at Mimi's. I'm glad you could join us. I wanted to dish about last night," Cameron said, smiling.

    "Do you always do this?" Liz asked, looking around

    the car, which was more amazing than anything she had ever seen. The seats were covered in beige suede, and the details were all paneled in walnut. There were several TV screens, a bar, and even bud vases filled with flowers. You couldn't hear the motor, see the driver, or even figure out where the light came from. It was like sitting in a box at the opera. That is, if Liz had ever sat in a box at the opera.

    "We try to do it once a week," Mimi said."My mother's staff is the best in town. We get in and out of lunch in under an hour. Plenty of time to get back to school-- though why we'd bother to go to gym after lunch is beyond me. So we generally skip it." She leaned back in the seat. "This traffic sucks. Living on Park Avenue is such a pain with all these cars."

    "Try living on Fifth," countered Cameron. "At least you don't get all the parades. Honestly, all those Irish and Greeks and whoever marching past your house beating drums."

    "I still have a hangover from last night," Liz said, hold- ing her head. "Don't even mention drums, please."

    Cameron and Mimi burst out laughing.

    "Oh, my God," Cameron said. "Meems, didn't I tell you she was great?" And with that bit of flattery, Liz began to relax.
