A flash of savage satisfaction coursed through her, as her hand connected...But even as she turned back from Melissa, her eyes widened as Bryant strode towards her! The lovely redhead stiffened, but didn't flinch as his hand slammed against the wall to her side...<br/><br/><em>What the hell is *wrong* with him?</em>Arisa thought, her lips parting to say-<br/><br/>And then Wesley was on him. This time, a gasp *did* pulse from Arisa's lips...She hadn't even seen him move! He was, abruptly, without warning, behind Bryant - Twisting his arm up and behind his back. It was the<em>precision</em>of his movements which were startling...As if he was three steps ahead, every time, before a hard shove sent Bryant sprawling!<br/><br/>"Oh-" Her hand went to her mouth, her big green eyes so very, very wide...That'd taken seconds, and she hadn't even had a chance to respond - Before Wesley was right in front of her, helping her retrieve the fallen chocolates.<br/><br/>"I, I..." And *now* Arisa was blushing. Really blushing, all the way to the tips of her red hair. "-I've heard of you," Arisa said, with a shy smile - Her slim fingers rising, brushing stray strands back from her lovely features. Her big green eyes met his, as she fidgeted with her basket...Half-kneeling, her hand almost brushing his in her distraction before she drew it away!<br/><br/>"What you did...<em>Thank</em>you," she said, her words heartfelt. "I shouldn't have...But I was just so<em>angry</em>at what he was doing..." Her slim shoulders lifted in a little shrug. "If you hadn't come - W, well...I don't know *what* would have happened next."<br/><br/>She pressed slim fingers to her full bosom - "Ah, I'm...I'm Arisa. Arisa Ortensia - I was helping the Student Council with this, before, well..." She let her voice trail off, still blushing. "Again, thank you. *Really*."<br/><br/>Oh Gods, she was<em>so</em>flustered. What was she going to say? She hadn't even checked on Melissa yet...
