Chapter 166 - Bullied Mate Of The Alpha Triplets

Tristen's POV

After going through the long and stressful process of giving passports and bags, I finally boarded the plane. Dad got me a first-class ticket, and there weren't so many people that were able to afford it, especially when the airline was one of the most luxurious and expensive.

I got seated in my space and looked out the window. The pilot announced for everyone to button up and use their seatbelt as they were about to take off. A female flight attendant came in, dressed in a really short skirt, tight shirt, and heels. She came over to where I was, her lips painted bright red, and gave a broad smile, her short, curly blonde hair falling over her left eye.

"Sir, please use your seat belt and remain calm. We are about to take off now," She said in a sweet tone, and I just nodded and did what she said. She was very charming and attractive, but I didn't think much of it until she lingered by my seat a bit longer than necessary.

She looked like she was going to say something, but I turned my face away and looked out the window.

The plane took off smoothly, and I made myself busy with a few games and music.

"Can I get you something to drink, hon?" I heard and turned to see the blonde attendant from earlier.

"Huh?"

"Do you need something to drink, fine mister?" she asked, flashing a bright smile. Her smile was very wide and friendly, but it made me feel a bit uncomfortable.

I ordered a coffee, and as she handed it to me, she touched my arm. "You know, I love your accent. Where are you from?" She seemed interested in talking to me, and I wasn't sure why.

I was taken aback but politely answered, "I'm from out of town, just visiting family." I hoped that would end the conversation, but she kept talking.

"Well, I hope you're enjoying your flight so far. We'll be landing soon, but maybe I can show you around the city sometime?" She said this with a sly smile, and I realized she was flirting with me!

I wasn't in the mood and didn't want to entertain these talks, but I also didn't want to act and look rude.

I felt a bit uncomfortable but tried to be friendly. "That's very kind of you, but I think I'll be pretty busy with family stuff." I hoped this would hint that I wasn't interested, but she didn't seem to get it.

She chatted with me a bit longer, asking about my interests and hobbies. I tried to be polite, but she was clearly trying to get to know me better.

Seeing my lack of interest and monotonous answers, she finally gave up and let. As I watched her leave, I let out a sigh of relief.

I couldn't help but think, "Wow, that was quite annoying!" I was used to females being flirtatious around me, but this time I wasn’t interested in any of that. I shrugged it off, focusing on the in-flight movie and trying to ignore the occasional glance from the overly friendly flight attendant.

For the rest of the flight, she would occasionally come by and try to talk to me, making small comments and trying to get my attention. But I ignored it all and tried to keep the conversations as short as possible, hoping she would get the hint.

Before I knew it, the plane was landing. The pilot spoke, and his voice echoed through the speakers. He informed us of our arrival to the new state and how we were landing, asking us to fasten our seat belts and all.

I saw the blonde flight attendant cat walking towards me, and I frowned.

"Fine, sir-"

"I know," I interrupted her.

"Well, if you don't mind-"

"I actually do mind; leave me and stop bothering me already. I'm not interested in you," I snapped at her, and she looked surprised and hurt before walking away. I messaged, my temples irritated; that woman was sure annoying.

The plane landed and stopped in a few minutes, and I gathered all my belongings and left the plane. I made my way to the arrivals gate, and tried to push through the crowd. I got out my phone and was about to dial Caleb's number when I heard someone scream my name.

"Tristen!"

I spotted my brother Caleb waiting for me, a big grin on his face as he waved excitedly. I walked hurriedly towards him and I got to where he was and we hugged each other.

"Man, it's been a while!" He exclaimed.

"I know; how have you been?" I said to him.

"I've been pretty good; I was so happy and excited when I heard you won the match and were coming over." Caleb helped me with one of my suitcases as we walked out of the airport.

He took me to the car and the driver helped with the bags. Caleb and I got into the back seat, and the driver drove us to the academy.

"Welcome to your new home, Tristen!" he told me as we drove off.

"Thanks" I chuckled.

Caleb asked me about my flight, and I told him about the friendly flight attendant. He chuckled and said, "Well, you better be careful; women here sure are something"

"Yeah, I know," I agreed.

"Well, I'm glad you're here now. Let's focus on your football career!"

"Yeah"

We got to the academy in no time, and the academy was massive. The space was so vast, with different enormous buildings in it.

Caleb led me to a dorm building, telling me all about the academy's rules and routines. I listened carefully, trying to remember everything. As we walked, I noticed other students walking about, all of them seeming to know precisely where they were going.

We reached a door with a sign that read "Room 304," and Caleb pushed it open.

"Come in bro" he said, gesturing for me to enter.

I stepped inside and found myself in an expansive, cozy room apartment.

"Wow"

It has an expansive living room and a door leading to the inner bedrooms with four queen-sized beds. Two boys were sitting on their beds, looking up at me with curious expressions.

One of them was dark-skinned and bald with a neck tattoo, and the other was olive-skinned with scanty brown hair.

"Guys, this is my brother. Tristen," Caleb said to them. "Tris, this is mine and your new roommates, Jax and Rome"

I waved at them. "Hi, I'm Tristen; nice to meet you guys."

Jax and Rome waved, and they both greeted me with warm smiles.

"Hey, Tristen! Welcome to the team!" Jax said to me with a smile.

Rome nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we're excited to have you on board!"

I felt a bit relieved. These guys seemed cool.

Caleb gestured to the empty bed in the corner. "Tristen, that's yours. This is your new home and you'll be staying here during your time at the academy. Make yourself comfortable!"

"Thanks, bro."

Jax and Rome excused themselves, saying they were heading to the cafeteria to grab some food.

"We'll catch you later, Caleb, you too Tristen" Jax called out as they left the room.

Rome added, "Yeah, and don't worry, it's all fun here at this college"
