[/i], he began to look around for nico in the cafeteria. there were plenty of people coming into the cafeteria for lunch by now, and surely nico was one of them. and no, there wasn't the possibility of nico standing him up. she was a better person and girlfriend than that. after a minute or two of scanning the faces inside the cafeteria, he saw nico, entering the building from the double doors nearby ryan. he looked over at her, then smiled and said, "nico!" and waved once to show her where he was. in the hustle and bustle of the crowd, people didn't give him weird looks, and instead made their way to get lunch.[/div]

And I can't describe there's something about the way you change me

nico really liked ryan, ryan was everything that ben should have been and more. though after finding out some news with olivia she wasn't about to have sex for a long time, she wished she given it to someone more like ryan than ben. at least ryan was nicer... ben was just a down right dick. an asshole that made her stomach fill with contents of her breakfast and that made her head straight for the bathroom. it had been like that for the last two days. wake up have a though about ben and head straight for the toilet. sometimes eat something and gain if lucky a pound or two, nico was still un sure how pregnant woman were able to get fat at all apart from the whole you know growing baby inside of you. nico shook a little from that. he didn't want that to happen to her. her father would kill her. he would string her up as a guitar and then place her sister up on a pedestal and proclaim her as an example child saying that she is so much better because she wasn't pregnant. honestly nico didn't even know if she didn't want it because she didn't want it or because she knew her father would kill her for having it or both. olivia kicked her out of her bed around noon proclaiming that it was bad for the baby if she din't do something but nico didn't care, since in the end she didn't care for the baby at all.

then she remembered that she had promised to meet her boyfriend. oh man her boyfriend, he was so sweet to her. and even if she wasn't keeping the baby he still deserved the right to know that it existed right? that was the least that she could do to him after the fact that he had been so nice to her since they started to go out. he hadn't forced her to sleep with him and that already was enough to get him very high points on her list. ben ruined that on the night of their first kiss, but the back of her brain was already blaming the little bit of alcohol had she had had that night instead of him and that that was wrong because in the end it wasn't the alcohol that had gotten her pregnant it had been benedikt perlin, what kind of name was that anyway? ryan was a beautiful name for a guy. nico in the end decided to just throw on some clothes. she put on some shorts that would only fit herfor another month if she kept the baby and a black t-shirt with a red design. she made her way towards the cafeteria by herself quietly only thinking that even though she would be getting an abortion soon it was time that she told him... she just needed to find a way how. she walked in the cafeteria the smell of food making her stomach turn. she heard her name and smiled at ryan forgetting the upchuck feeling she had a few seconds before. "hi handsome,"

[/color] she whispered kissing lightly on the lips. [/div]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, background-image:url(http://i56.tinypic.com/2zgu9hc.jpg); width: 440px; padding-top:10px;] there's no sunrise --- when nico kissed him, ryan felt warmth spread through him, even though the kiss was a quick one. ryan really liked nico. he did. but for some reason, the warmth wasn't at its fullest. it was there, but maybe not as strong as it would have been if... adele had kissed him. god, he had to figure out his feelings for adele potter before it destroyed his relationship with nico. or at least put it on a shelf and not look at it for a very long time. unfortunately, it wasn't going to be that easy. luckily, ryan had only been thinking about adele for a second before managing to shelf it, at the moment. he kissed nico gently and lightly on the cheek and said, "great to see you, beautiful." he gave her a smile, not too big yet not too small, and definitely not a wild grin. he took her hand and said, "so what do you want for lunch? today it's either a choice of chinese food, pizza, salad or sandwiches." he gestured to each station, alll of which were in a buffet of sorts around the cafeteria. "the line starts there," ryan pointed to the end of the line as he talked, "i could eat anything, honestly, so it's up to you."

[/color] this statement was very true. ryan was somewhat of a glutton, and you could feed him almost anything that was edible. his mom had always joked that ryan was like the family trash can, for food at least, because he always ate the leftovers. the thought of his mother made ryan smile inwardly, and it also reminded him of something else. "hold on," ryan said, and let go of nico's hand as he searched through his backpack. it was cluttered with all types of things, like textbooks and homework. he took out his wand from his back pocket and did a summoning charm. zipping up his backpack, he put his wand back in his back pocket, then showed what he had retrieved from his backpack to nico. it was a pie. not just any pie. but his mother's very own home-made peach pie. it wasn't too crushed by the other items in ryan's backpack, and ryan had used a spell to keep it warm. "my mom's peach pie," ryan said. "after we've finished eating whatever you want to eat from the buffet, we can have some of this. it's one of the most delicious things alive, i swear. what do you think?

the peach pie brought back many memories of the past and a lot of homesickness, even though it was unintentional. he remembered the texan ranch where he grew up as clear as if it were yesterday. he remembered the faces of his mom, dad, sister, casey, and brother, john. he remembered horse-back riding around the ranch, his horse stormy, all the rodeos ryan and his friends attended, and star-gazing at night ryan had done with his mother and siblings. the pie also brought back memories from the texan academy of magic, where ryan and most of his family had gotten their magical education, like quidditch mathes, final exams and good times with friends. but the pie also brought back memories of the terrible fire that had happened when he was seven. it also visited him in his dreams, and ryan no problem at all remembering the flames, the smell of smoke entering his nostrils, the frightened cries of his family members, the sight of his burns. suddenly, when his mind came across the memories of his burns, ryan got jolted back to the present. he needed to focus on the present right now, not the past. he looked over at nico, and noticed that she looked and acted more subdued today, less energetic than she usually was. as if something was preoccuping her thoughts. ryan knew how she felt. about having his thoughts preoccupied. when he was alone in his room, he would always think about his family and texas. sometimes even in class he would look out the window and begin to daydream about home, until the professor managed to get him back to reality. the most common way was calling on him in class for an answer to their question. so ryan decided not to pry nico. instead he asked her, "where should we start?" it wasn't said in a nagging fashion, it was in more of a patient one. he could do anything now. even just being with nico was fine with him right now.[/div]

And I can't describe there's something about the way you change me

nicolette didn't want to be pregnant anymore. she wanted it gone. she wanted it gone right that second so that she wouldn't have to tell ryan. she didn't want to tell ryan. or ben. or anyone. she just wanted to keep it to herself and cry it out like in those movies was that no possible? could she just not do that? why was her life not a movie? could she just not press the pause button on the remote control on the growing thing inside of her that way she could for one second thing about what she might do next. she needed to think about her next few steps. but she couldn't. every time she went to sleep the thing inside grew a little more and a little bit more and more and more and she didn't want that. she just wanted it gone. she didn't want it at all. why didn't anyone understand that? she didn't want to be pointed out as the girl who got pregnant at eighteen. she didn't want that. she didn't want people to point at her and say that. and nico knew herself. she knew that if she went through nine months of carrying the child she wouldn't be able to hand it over for an adoption. she would have to keep it. she wouldn't be able to give it up after it was born. she wouldn't be able to do it. not if it was in her arms. that was why she had made up her mind and why she was getting rid of it and why she was having that abortion. but ryan deserved the right to know. he was nothing but sweet to her. nico knew that.

she loved to kiss ryan. it was felt nice. felt safe. it wasn't like kissing ben that kept her on her toes but it was so much nicer and to a point so much better. she smiled. she loved being called beautiful. she looked down at her hand when took it, smiling a little bigger. at the sound of food her stomach gave a little turn. before nico could say that she wasn't very hungry for any of that ryan spoke again. "oh okay,"

[/color] she said smiling slightly. when he let go of nico's hand she felt a little empty. it wasn't nice. she liked holding on to his hand. it was comforting. nico's eyes widen however when ryan literally pulled out a pie from his back bag. "wow,"[/color] she said softly taking it in. she could already smell it. her stomach grumbled a little in hunger. "that pie looks amazing ryan i'm thinking we should just dig into that,"[/color] she said smiling a little. her thought ran off some where else though. mostly to the thing that was growing inside of her. she refused to call it what it actually was. as soon as she did however it was real and that would make it harder to kill and the harder it was to kill the more it would be impossible to live with herself. she hated ben for doing this to her but mostly hated herself for dragging herself in this mess. if she hadn't let ben seduce her sober ass she wouldn't be in this mess. she would still be a little virgin, would have possible have started dating ryan and would not have a thing growing inside of her. in other words would be much happier. ryan snapped her back to reality. where should they start? the truth? "i'm pregnant... but i'm not keeping it," she said all in one line and as quickly as she possible could, almost as if it was speedy rather than anything. she braced herself for anything that was coming.[/div]
