Thread: Taking Callie In (nothingbutporcelain and Anansi)

Callie felt a little comforted knowing that her uncle had once been in the place she was at right now. She was scared about coming here because she knew she wouldn't fit in and she was sure she wouldn't like it here but she did like her uncle and wanted to make him happy. She was willing to give this place a chance. She just didn't think she was going to like it here. She didn't want to drive places but she also didn't want to do a lot of walking. Walking in the city was nice because you never had to walk too far. The subway hadn't been Callie's favorite place since it was dirty and nasty but she took it when she had to. She certainly wasn't going to walk everywhere here. She'd probably get all sweaty and that would be disgusting. But then again if guys saw her walking on the side of the road they would probably stop and offer to give her a ride. The guys in the city always liked her and she just hoped the country boys would too. Hopefully they didn't just assume she was a stuck up city girl. She could be stuck up sometimes but she was also very nice most of the time. At least she was always nice to men. It was a different story with girls. But Callie had her reasons for disliking girls. Most girls she met hated her from the start because they were so jealous of her looks and her way with men. They wished they had the kind of power Callie had over men. She sensed that he only married his wife because she got knocked up and he thought it was the thing to do. She wondered if they were even in love anymore. She would be watching them once his wife got back. She wanted to see if they were still happy. It was always easy to tell when a man wasn't happy with his wife and wanted to be with someone else. She was a little bit intrigued with the store. It impressed her that the owners of the store used to be models. Callie did some modeling in the city but she was always too short to get famous. Only the really tall girls got famous. She definitely had the looks. She was thin enough to be a model but 5'1 wasn't going to cut it. She did some photo shoots and they really loved using her in those but she just wasn't cut out for the runway. She had an exotic look to her which all the photographers liked but it wasn't enough to make her do well in the industry. She narrowed her eyes at the women when they automatically started talking to her uncle about how they would gladly find him something to wear. They probably both had huge crushes on him. Callie could definitely see why. He was a good looking man. If he wasn't her uncle she probably would have tried to kiss him by now but she knew how wrong that would be. Sometimes she had some thoughts about him that weren't exactly appropriate for a niece to have about her uncle but she always forced these thoughts to the back of her mind. Nothing was ever going to happen between them. She had to keep reminding herself that. She got pissed when that woman had the nerve to pinch his butt. They really must have been good friends for her to feel comfortable doing something like that. She didn't like how they were paying so much attention to them. Callie didn't even know if she liked these kinds of clothes. She just wanted to look on her own. Why couldn't they leave her alone? I like the little dresses. They are pretty hot. The red one is nice. Could I try that on? She knew it probably wasn't what her uncle wanted her to buy but she wanted to have some fun here. He should just be happy that she wasn't being rude to these people and telling them how much she hated their store. She was being very nice right now. And I guess I need some Daisey dukes to wear when I'm working. Maybe some white tank tops. I've always wanted to buy a pair of cowboy boots. Do you have those? They would be so cute in pink. Callie was very interested in fashion. She never told anyone this but she wished she could be a fashion designer. I just need some clothes that teenagers wear around here but maybe a little more revealing than what the average teenager wears. I like showing off my legs.
