not
care what Melina said or did for she had other things to worry
about.
     
    Ironically, it was because
Ross had prevented Melina from skipping school when Aradia's worlds
began to collide. It had started during her history class, and
Aradia was sitting in the back with Dax as she usually did. Dax was
massaging her shoulders while Aradia tried hard to suppress her
groans of pleasure. Unfortunately, Roy was also in their class and
glaring at the two. Most unfortunate of all, was the fact that
Tristan was there as well and sitting right next to Roy! Once he
noticed Roy's bad attitude, and followed his angry gaze Tristan
began to chuckle with understanding.
    As soon as Roy heard him, he
whipped around, saying, "What? What's so funny?"
    "You know Roy," Tristan
began, "If you really want to win over Aradia then you have got to
stop being such a nice guy."
    "What do you mean?" Roy
snapped.
    "What I mean is try applying
some dirty tactics and stop waiting around," Tristan
explained.
    "Dirty tactics," Roy
repeated, "What are those?"
    Tristan sighed, and muttered
under his breath, "No wonder in spite of his womanizing skills your
older brother Al still doesn't have a serious girlfriend. You are
all hopeless."
    He then turned and leaned in
closer to Roy. "Dirty tactics like provoking Dax into a fight and
making him look a fool in front of Aradia."
    "Or," Tristan added in a
dramatic lower whisper. "My personal favorite: making Aradia
jealous by showing interest in other women."
    Roy's mouth dropped open.
"What?"
    "It's like this Roy,"
Tristan explained while straightening up in his seat. "No woman
wants a man more unless she is going to lose him."
    Roy shook his head in
disbelief. "Forget it Tristan. I am not like that."
    Tristan groaned while Roy
added, "And besides where am I going to find a woman who is
interested in me? Unlike you, Dax, and my brothers I am not much of
a ladies' man. So how the hell can I possibly snag someone that
will make Aradia want to compete for my affections? I mean it's not
like a beautiful woman who finds me attractive is going walk right
through the door!"
    At that, very moment there
was a knock, which stopped the history teacher's lecture. Roy
strained his neck to see who it was, Tristan's advice still on his
mind. However, as the teacher answered the door the person they saw
standing there was the vice principal who looked like a female
version of Uncle Fester of the Addams family. Roy's face fell while
Tristan snickered.
    The vice principal then
handed the history teacher a note who turned around and said,
"Attention class, we have a new student in our class
today."
    The vice principal then
stepped aside, the teacher motioned for the student to come
forward, and in walked Melina! Today, she was wearing her usual
punk rocker boots and denim mini skirt even though it was freezing
outside. However, what was different about her appearance today was
she was wearing a hot pink satin puffy jacket rather than a brown
one, and large gold hoop earrings.
    As soon as Dax noticed the
earrings glittering in the classroom light, he leaned in closer,
and whispered into Aradia's ear. "Aren't those earrings
yours?"
    Aradia just clenched her
fists in response.
    Roy's reaction to Melina,
however, was very different. His jaw dropped open, and his eyes
grew wide as dinner plates as he stared at her in utter shock.
Tristan chuckled as soon as he noticed this. Melina noticed as
well, but instead of chuckling, she sauntered next to the empty
desk right beside Roy.
    She then seductively crossed
her legs, smiled at him, and said, "Hey."
    Roy could not even reply. He
just continued to stare at Melina who looked back at him, smiling
sexily, and batting her eyelashes. Tristan looked back at Aradia
who had just now noticed the interaction between Roy and Melina and
started stiffening in her seat.
    Tristan snickered as he
turned around, murmuring to himself, "Now this is getting
good."
     
    Aradia waved to Melina at
lunch and
