Did you have any <500 mile flights with a companion? Maybe you got charged an upgrade for the companion?
I don't know if currency is required to upgrade a companion on a short flight; I don't see any wording one way or the other on AA.com. Since EXPs need to use stickers to upgrade companions, it's certainly plausible that Golds/Platinums on short flights would need to use stickers as well.
