Lyric's p.o.v

I couldn't believe what was happening! But at the same time, I could.  I was getting ready for my date with Cody!  It was a little awkward for me because the person helping me, was Kimberly Beauty and the one and only, Rachelle Charming.  Rachelle didn't seem bothered by my discomfort, she thought it was just anxiety about my first date, but Kimberly knew why I felt awkward. Of course, I was worried about my deal with Iris...but I couldn't help feeling excited! (Below is Lyric's outfit, ignore the Ariel Formal)

"Don't you think this is a little much for a movie?" Rachelle asked

"Don't you think this is a little much for a movie?" Rachelle asked.

"True, but we're going out to dinner afterwards" I replied.

"Okay, enough talking! Cody's going to be here in 50 minutes! We need to get your makeup done!" Kimberly scolded.

"We don't need 50 minutes to do one makeup look!" Rachelle complained.

"Besides, I don't wanna look too fancy, might scare him away" I joked.  "Not that I could" I muttered to myself.

"What was that?" Rachelle questioned.

"N-nothing! I'm just nervous!" I exclaimed.

Rachelle was right, it only took 4 minutes to do my makeup, I didn't use much, just a little blush, and some mascara.  The majority of the time was used to fix my makeup.

I was finally ready to go on my date with Cody!  Just in time too, well maybe not, I still had more than half an hour until he got there.  Just then, Harmony walked in.

"Hey Lyric, Cody asked me to give this to you" she said handing me a credit card.

"He gave you his credit card?" Rachelle asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Are you dating him for money?" Kimberly accused.

"Woah! Let's not go there!" Rachelle added hastily.

"I promise I'm not dating him for money! But why did he give me this?" I asked Harmony.

"No idea, he just said you could buy what you want, he didn't mind" she shrugged.

For about half an hour, we just gossiped and caught up like old friends, like nothing weird or awkward had ever happened.   But I glimpsed Rachelle's crystal blue eyes...it snapped me back into reality, and I remembered the price I would have to pay if I didn't fulfill my end of the bargain!  Why was I having to live my story before it even began?

But I didn't have time to talk about it because Cody walked into the room.

"Hey beautiful, are you ready to go?" Cody said as flirtatiously as he could.  We all blinked in surprise, since when did he act like this?

"Oh hey Rachelle, I heard you started dating Kyle! We should schedule a double date soon!" Cody smiled happily, unfazed by what he was saying.  Kimberly and Harmony narrowed their eyes in suspicion, while Rachelle just smiled back.

"Sounds great, how about next week?" she asked.

"Good idea, well come on Lyric, the limo's waiting outside" Cody said grinning.

"LIMO!?" I exclaimed.

"Only the best for you, love" he said.

*time skip*

The movie and dinner was absolutely amazing! But honestly, it was a little awkward for me, we were only on our first date and he was already acting like we'd been together for years!  At the end of the date, he kissed me, and I was...happy.  But was I? I was completely torn! This wasn't right...and I just didn't feel that spark anymore! But then I realized, not only was this not MY Cody, Iris...she seemed very familiar.  In fact, I thought I heard Rachelle mention the granddaughter of the sea witch that stole my grandmothers voice...Iris Witch!  Oh my gosh! What have I done?

A/N: Chapter 8, coming soon! Next chapter, we'll be seeing a lot about Daring and Dexter...
