The One Who Pulls the Strings

"Good morning." Rinoa said, nudging Squall who had too much to drink last night.

"Oh, hey babe." muttered Squall, as he drifted back to sleep. Rinoa giggled at Squall, as she got out of bed. Quickly putting on her clothes, she just remembered that Selphie wanted to talk to her about something. Rinoa abruptly left for Selphie's dorm. Just as she left, Zell barged through the door, carrying a few bags of chips, beers, and of course hotdogs.

"Wake up!" Zell yelled, kicking the mattress. Squall jumped, rolling out of bed, hitting his head on the night stand.

"Damnit Zell!" Squall shouted, rubbing this huge soon to be bump.

"Sorry, always wanted to do that," sighed Zell. He plopped down on the bed, turning on Squall's 60" Sony TV.

"Yeah, pretend you own the place," complained Squall, as he put a shirt and jeans on. "What's that? Is it another porno?" he asked, curiously smiling at Zell.

"Yep, its called 'The Revenge of the Dyke' pretty cool I think. I've seen previews," Zell replied. He plunked the tape in. They both leaned back, and watched two, very hot women make out. Just as things were getting good, somebody just walked through the door. It was Rinoa's dad, he very rarely knocks.

"Hi, uh we were just watching a movie." Squall croaked, knowing this was bad.

"Uh yeah, I see.wait, this is Revenge of the Dyke! Oh, I have wanted to see this!" yelled the old colonel. He sat back on the bed, taking the chips from Zell, and started munching away. Surprised and relieved, Squall and Zell sat there watching the video, listening to the old man talk about his boner.

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" asked Rinoa.

"Well, I was just wondering if you would help me choose between a couple of guys," Selphie said anxiously.

"Oh, Zell and Irvine huh, you still haven't made that simple decision have you?" Retorted Rinoa as she sat on the sofa.

"Well, you see, Irvine is so romantic. He always buys me flowers, even frenched me right in front of the students. But you see, there is something about Zell.I don't know what it could be. He is always so vulgar, it makes me sick. When I start talking about going to dinner, he just gets all nervous and makes dumb excuses. But there is something about him." Selphie said being more serious than she has ever been.

"Well, the answer is obvious to me...I won't tell you though, that is something you need to find out on your own. Just follow your heart." Rinoa stated, as she watched Selphie ponder.

"Oh well, enough of that. HEY! Lets go shopping, then after that we can get our nails done, and." Less than 2 seconds after Selphie's suggestion, they were already on the way to Balamb Mall.
