Once you turn on the charm… it's hard to turn it off…

(A/N-Another thanks to my reviewees! You guys rock! Lurve to all of you! Here's my next chapter! Sorry it took soo long my dumbass computer wouldn't let me update for some reason...whatever)
I woke up on Wednesday listening to the birds chirp outside my window. There must've been like twenty of them it was pretty loud, although some would find the sounds almost musical.
"Shut up you stupid birds!"
Not Calli.
Selphie lifted her head to see Calli with a broom in her hands and her body halfway out the window trying to knock the birds unconscious.
"I think there are laws against what you're doing Calli…" grumbled Selphie as she got out of her bed and went into the bathroom to get dressed. Calli must have been awake for a while because she was fully dressed and looked like the goddess she normally did.
Sometimes I got jealous of Calli because of her perfect hair and body, and eyes, and all the guys like her, and she can dance really good, and she sings well, and she has a lot of money… but you know I'm not what you would call a 'jealous' person…
"I don't care these birds are tempting fate by angering me! They've been asking for it since last week! It's time they learned a lesson!" exclaimed Calli as she swung the broom wildly.
"Leave the birds alone and get some breakfast in the cafeteria I'll meet you there in a second," said Selphie from the bathroom.
"Fine," replied Calli as she got her purse and headed for the door. She walked towards the elevator and waited for the doors to open. When they did she walked in and pressed the button for her floor. Inside was a tall man with shaggy brown hair. Attractive, but Calli wasn't interested.
"What's your name?" he asked, a little dirtier sounding than he probably wanted. Calli raised her eyebrow and looked at him questioningly. "Okay…" Calli shook her head and waited for the door to open. When it reached her floor she walked to the cafeteria and got into line.
"Hey aren't you in my advanced battle class?" Calli looked up from rustling in her purse to see a guy with short black hair and very defined muscles looking at her.
"Yeah," she replied flatly.
"It's nice to see some girls in that class. You know? Most girls and too weak to keep up with us tough guys!" he gave a high five to the guy next to him and Calli gave her signature eyebrow raised-what-the-hell-is-wrong-with-you look. Their laughter died down quickly and Calli continued to look in her purse for her wallet. She pulled out the blue wallet and got out her card.
Being hit-on everywhere she went eventually got a little boring. So many hot guys wanted her but she didn't want the hot guys.
… I'm not at all jealous. I have sympathy for her…how sad.
When Calli got to the front she got an apple and two orders of French toast. She sat down at a table near the window and looked out. The Garden was currently floating over Deling City. Her and Selphie planned on going to the mall later that day to buy stuff for Rinoa's birthday party. Decorations and stuff like that. She loved going to the mall, but she hated how every guy in a 10m radius of her shamelessly hit on her expecting her to go out with them like that. But Calli was deep person, sort of. She wanted more than a hot guy she wanted a relationship, but Calli had a tiny problem.
When she started to hit on someone she was actually interested in sh couldn't turn off her charm, and she kinda-sorta hit on every guy she met from then on out. She was a pathological flirt, but at least she was good at it. When Selphie finally arrived Calli had eaten the apple and half of a French-toast.
"Sorry I took so long, but I see you bought me my food!" exclaimed Selphie sitting down and taking the plate from her.
"No, I eat two French-toasts on my own."
My, aren't we sarcrastic. An hour later we arrived at the mall in Deling and bought some party stuff. You know streamers, whatever. Anyways…It was then that my phone started ringing…
"Hello?"
"TILMITT!" Selphie reeled back from the shrill cry. After a moment to recover she replaced her ear to the phone.
"Who is this-please don't yell!"
"It's Seifer you moron! I have been waiting in the Quad since 4 in the damn morning!" Selphie looked at her watch: 12:00.
"Wow I am soooo sorry Seifer, I forgot all about making you work, umm…take the rest of the day off and meet me next week okay…sorry," the phone went dead and Selphie sighed. She looked to Calli who was lauging her ass off.
It was pretty funny but I couldn't laugh at him now, actually I could.
The two girls burst into a fit of laughter and after a few moments the fit died down.
"Okay…I'll go…get the car," said Selphie catching her breath from the laughter, "meet me at the front entrance in five minutes. Calli nodded and entered the jewellery store beside her.
Inside was like a palace. Diamonds were decorating every inch of the room. She went to the front counter and examined the necklace in the window. A clerk came up to her.
"Would you like help with anything?"
"Yes umm, could you get me that necklace there?" The clerk opened the glass and took out a tiny mantle with the necklace on top of it. He held I p to her.
"You would look perfect in this…good enough to eat…" Calli looked at his face and he winked at her.
"…Are you kidding, you are hitting on me? You're like 40 years old and I'm 18! Hyne!" Calli stormed out of the room with all of her heavy bags in her hands. Even with all the extra weight Calli managed to storm off like a goddess.
Like a goddess my ass…I am so not jealous…anyways…
Calli was heading toward the front entrance when she dropped something from one of her many bags. She was in front of a table where three friends were eating. One of them picked it up for her.
"Here you go," he had deep blue eyes, and short dirty blonde hair.
"Thanks," she replied coolly.
"Do you need any help?" Calli examined his voice, trying to find a trace of sleazebag. She didn't find any.
"Okay, I'm just heading to the front entrance." The guy took the bags from her hands and started to walk along side of her. He was wearing a green t-shirt the read 'Sunny beach…' and had a picture of a…well a sunny beach. She noticed a black mark on his arm and lifted the arm o the shirt to see what it was. There was a tattoo of tiny symbols encircling his arm. He looked at her and she shrugged.
"I wanted to see what it was…" he nodded.
"Do you have any tattoos?"
"One, " she replied.
"Where?"
"I don't think that's any of your business," she stated. He laughed a little.
"I like a touch of mystery…what's your name?"
"Calli Warratam."
"Erick Bradshaw."
"Hi Erick," he smiled at her.
"So why are you headed to the front?"
"I'm meeting my friend."
"Boy-friend?" he asked.
"No just my friend, her manes Selphie, we go to Balamb together."
"Really you go to Balamb?" she nodded, "So do I."
"Well then maybe I'll see you around," she took the bags from him and walked through the sliding doors. She stopped in the middle and turned around. "There's this birthday party on Friday room 203 in the girls dorm, at 7:00pm, maybe you could come by…"
"I'll be there." She turned and flipped her hair in a way that, when the sun hit it, every natural highlight was highlighted so much more.
Once again, I am not jealous, I don't wish hot guys would hit on me everywhere I went…anyways…Calli told me about Erick, and she decided that maybe this time she'll give him a chance and allow him to date her. I wish I had to allow guys to date me…I am so jealous. She said guys hit on her because of her charm, once she turns it on it's hard to turn it off…
