Melanie looked at Ryan eat, boy was he monstrous. She laughed and he just shook his head at her. Sandy came into the room and sat across the table from Melanie.
"Well," he said, smiling, "you will need to enroll in school sometime. How about tomorrow we go and talk to the principle about getting you into Ryan and Seth's school?" He asked.
"A p-prep school?" She asked nervously. She'd never been very good at school, usually just brought home C's at the most.
Sandy nodded. "Don't worry," he elbowed Ryan, "they let your brother in."
Ryan grinned up at him and Mel laughed. A knock on the door sent Ryan flying out of the kitchen and soon coming back in, but this time, not alone, with a girl. She had brown hair, a fancy dress, rosy makeup and some expensive jewelry on to express her radiance.
"Hi!" the girl said peppily, "My name is Marissa Cooper! You must be Melanie! I'm so glad to meet you!" Marissa extended her hand.
Melanie just looked at it, for a moment, and then took it smiling. "It's nice to meet you too Marissa. You must be Ryan's girlfriend." She looked at Ryan and grinned, "How'd my rough brother get a pretty girl like you to date him? He has no money." She joked.
Ryan faked punched her. . .was he blushing a little? Melanie could tell Marissa was. She seemed like a nice girl. A second girl walked in after them. This one had dark brown hair, some fancy shirt and designer jeans and a necklace on. She was much more played down than Marissa, but she still looked gorgeous.
"I'm Summer Roberts." She said stuffily, not extending a friendly hand as Marissa had. She obviously had heard about Seth and Melanie's. . .er. . .friendliness, but she already had a boyfriend, did she still have feelings for Seth?
Melanie smiled. Well, two could play at the evil bitch game. .
"My name's Melanie! I've been having a great time meeting the Cohen's. They've all been so nice, especially Seth." she grinned.
Summer frowned and Marissa bit her lip. "Well, welcome to Newport. You'll know your way around here in no time!" Marissa introduced. Marissa kind of reminded Melanie of a preppy flight attendant, but a lot more dressed up.
Kirsten popped her head in and looked at Melanie. "Well come on!" She smiled. "Oh hello Summer, Marissa!" she said taking notice of the other two girls standing in her kitchen.
"Where are you going?" Ryan asked.
"I'm buying Melanie some new clothes for school. Would you like to come Marissa? Summer?" She asked.
Summer shook her head. "I have to be leaving soon, plans with Zack."
Marissa shrugged. "Sure! It could be fun!" And with that the three girls left, leaving Ryan and Summer standing alone in the kitchen.
