My True Feelings

Chapter 1

Sefie's Balamb Garden Homepage

'Hiya people! Selphie here. Well, we have a ball coming up organized by yours truly. It's on Wednesday. Any of you lovely boyz gonna ask me to go with you? Tee-hee. Just kidding. Well, since its so close to Halloween, I decided to make it a Halloween Ball! So go head and get a costume. That means you too SQUALL! If you don't I'll…………..I'll……….I'll tickle you to death! Remember, only I know your ticklish spot. (Evil laugh) Well that's all for now. See ya in the halls!'

'Ok, now that I've updated, time to get working on the quad' thought Selphie.

She looked on her desk for paper. She came across a picture of her and Squall. Zell had taken it the picture. Squall was sitting legs dangling over the place Rinoa fell in the quad. He was deep in thought, as usual. Selphie decided to surprise him. She flopped in his lap, thinking she was going to fall, Squall put his arms around her. Selphie put her arms around his neck. Their noses were touching. Selphie had a big smile on her face. Squall had a worried look.

She smiled at the picture, and then she found some paper in the top drawer in her desk. She started writing things they'll need for the ball.

'Ok, we need Halloween decorations, food, drinks, hot dogs for Zell, and candy! Lots of candy! Maybe I can get Zell or Irvine to take me candy shopping'

She got up and got dressed. She put on some jeans, a Nightmare Before Christmas T-shirt, and a black hoodie. She then applied some make-up then brushed her hair out. She took one last look in the mirror and left.

She went to the quad real quick to start making arrangements. She made a diagram of where she wanted everything. She also made a list of songs and/or bands she was going to ask to play for them. She knew quiet a few. Lucky for her, they would all play because each band at Balamb Garden wanted to get their songs heard. Selphie then left.

She found her friends in the cafeteria. She looked at all of them. They were all seated in the spots they usually sit everyday. Seifer has joined the gang. He was sitting next to Squall. Squall next to Rinoa. Rinoa next to Quistis. An empty chair next to her. Then Zell. Then Irvine. They were all laugh at Zell. Well, all except for Squall. Selphie laughed at his annoyance. Squall rolled his eyes at Zell and turned to talk to Seifer.

' I have great friends,' Selphie thought happily. 'They're always there when I need them. And I'm also glad Seifer became part of our gang. He's cool and fun to annoy. And him and Squall are best friends now. That was unexpected. But whatever.'

Since Zell was sitting with his back toward her, Selphie decided to scare him. When everyone at the table except Zell saw her coming, she made the 'Shhh' gesture. She was right behind Zell. She jumped to his side.

"Hiya Zell!" she shouted.

"Ahhhhh! HOLY SHIT!" Zell screamed and fell back in his seat.

Everyone at their table, and everyone else that saw, started laughing. Even Squall. Selphie smiled at her success. She was happy to see Squall laughing. She didn't expect him to laugh, but to her surprise he did. She was very happy about that. Anyone who managed to make Squall laugh or even smile for that matter deserves a metal.

"That just proves that you're a chicken-wuzz," Seifer said to Zell.

Selphie laughed as she seated herself in-between Quistis and Zell.

"Dammit Selphie. You scared the living hell out of me!" said Zell

"That was the point," she told him with a huge smile on her face. "So what's up?"

"Well, we were thinking that we should go shopping for costumes," said Rinoa.

"Don't you mean you were thinking?" asked Squall.

"Nooooo. We."

"I'm not dressing up."

'"Yes you are."

"No, I'm not."

"YES YOU ARE!" the three girls told him, well more like shouted to him.

"Fine whatever," Squall said rolling his eyes.

"Yay!" yelled Selphie excitedly.

"I guess I can go as SeeD."

"Squall, that's boring. Why go as something you are when you can go as something you're not?" Selphie asked.

"Because I don't want to dress up."

"Why don't you go as a um………………a rock star! You'll look so cool!"

Squall thought about this for a while. ' I do like rock music. I guess I wouldn't hurt'

"Fine, I'll go as a rock star," said squall.

"Ok! I only thought of that because I might go as one, but I might go as a fairy too. I don't know," Selphie told him.

" I'm going as a princess," said Rinoa with pride and joy.

'Surprise' thought Squall ' she acts like one already. Selphie should tell her to act like something she's not'

"What are you all going as?" Selphie asked the rest of the gang,

"I'm going as a doctor," said Quistis.

"I gonna go as a boxer," said Zell, then did some boxing moves.

"I'm going as a FBI agent," said Irvine.

"Vampire," Seifer simply said.

"oooooooo, that's a good one. I forgot about those guys! Tee-hee. Oops. Maybe I'll go as a vampire," said Selphie.

"I changed my mind. I'll go as what cowboy said here."

"I was only kidding, Seifer. you're so mean to me!" Selphie said with fake tears in her eyes.

"But its so fun!" Seifer said with a smile.

"You big ol' meanie. Well, I came here to ask you guys if you could-"

"Help you set up decorations in the quad," they all finished for her.

"Yeah, what you guys said."

"Ok, Selphie, we'll help," said Squall. 'Might as well. She'll never leave you alone until you do'

"Great! We can get started now. I need to go shopping for candy, so who wants to go with me?"

"I'll go," Squall said getting up. " I need to get out of this garden for a few hours. Plus Seifer and Irvine are taller than me, they can put the streamers and banners up."

"You're right. Then eat up Squall! We have candy shopping to do!"

"I already ate. You should eat. You'll need the energy." He looked at the tiny energetic girl. "Never mind." ' She never runs out of energy'

"Well, lets go!"

Selphie grabbed his hand and led him to the parking lot. Once they got there, she climbed in the passenger's side of Squall's truck that he got for his birthday from Laguna. Squall got in the drivers side.

"Your car is so cool!" said Selphie.

"Its not a car, it's a truck."

"You know what I meant."

Squall just turned the radio on. It boomed Godsmack. Squall thought Selphie would change it to something of her liking, but he was wrong. She was dancing her seat.

"You like Godsmack?" Squall yelled over the music.

"Yeah. They're awesome!" She yelled back.

After the song was over, Selphie still didn't change it. Squall turned down the music. He looked over at her in surprise.

"Heeeey, I was listening to that, you person," Selphie said playfully punching him on the arm.

"Do you like rock?"

"I love rock. Any kind of rock is fine with me. Godsmack, Lincoln Park, Avril Lavigne, Miyavi. They're all cool."

"I thought you would listen to the crap Rinoa listens to."

"Nope! I hate that 'crap'. It gets on my nerves. The only pop I would listen to is if it is Gackt singing."

Squall was surprised. He really did think she would listen to whatever Rinoa listens too. He was glad that she did listen to rock. No one else in the gang besides Seifer listened to rock. Then again, he did sometimes catch Zell listening to rock.

Selphie started looking through Squall's cd case. She found a bunch of cds that were by rock bands/singers. She also found some pop cds. She figured Rinoa put them in there. She found a cd she wanted to listen to and put it in the player. Now it started to boom Disturbed.

"Selphie, I think you're my new best friend." Squall said with a smile.
