i have grown too strong,

stick in the mud. yeah. that was what she had always been, wasn't it? more suited to ravenclaw than slytherin, most people thought, and with a massive stick up her ass. she knew that nico was joking, but the fact she'd heard it enough from other people that genuinely believed it, well... that made it sting. that made it sting a lot. and what was worse was the fact that she couldn't even say anything, because right now her focus had to be on her cousin and she knew it. her own petty feelings couldn't enter into the picture at all. she took a moment before she forced a smile onto her face and rolled her eyes in an over-exaggerated way. "oh, come on, just because you have a complete lack of house pride, nico. it's obviously because i'm from the superior house, you know." she was trying to sound light and airy, but she wasn't sure whether she managed to pull that off. as a slytherin, she fucking hoped that she had managed to pull it off. it was what her house was known for, after all. shaking her head, she rested a hand on nico's shoulder gently. "you will find someone. i know it, nico. you just need to have some faith, okay? when have i ever led you astray?" she tried that smile again, though perhaps a little more comforting than before. "this isn't the end of the world. or your life."

if it had been her that was pregnant, it would have been a little more able to be dealt with. after all, she was engaged, and even if her father would never admit that she and ezra were sleeping together, it was more acceptable than, well, her single cousin. though it wasn't like any of her uncles would have been unimpressed if it was benedikt perlin that nico was involved with, just... not in an intimate way. that didn't mean he liked the asshole, but her father would have approved of him. annoyingly so. sighing a little, she shook her head. "i'm not saying that i like the guy. for fuck's sake, he dismisses me because of my hair colour, for merlin's sake." but then she started to cry and she sighed, shifting to wrap her arms around her cousin properly. the books were now completely forgotten, which was a testament of how much this meant to her – and how much her cousin meant to her. "nico, sweetie, it's okay. this isn't the end of the world, you know that we can fix this even if the worst has happened." she sighed, kissing at her forehead and rubbing at her back in what she desperately hoped was a comforting manner. "come on, let's get you to the hospital wing. there's no point in talking to roe and jaz if there's nothing to tell and you just picked up some twenty four hour bug from the kitchens." rather than a nine month bug from benedikt, but that was barely the point. "and he won't ever make you do anything. we won't let him. you should know that, sweetie." it was the truth; benedikt fucking perlin would never force anything on her cousin, because she'd castrate him if he tried anything like that.

And through the rising and falling apart, We discover who we are

nicolette couldn't always say that she'd been in suh a position to judge others. hell she'd fallen to the tricks of benedikt perlin... she should have just laughed him off because of his name simply but no. his sweet words had made it up to his brain like poison changing her entire view of him in a matter of seconds, nico had no idea how he had done it, how it had started off with a simple kiss to so much more. she wouldn't down right say that she regretted it, not really. at least not completely, it was a wonderful night and honestly she just wished that she hadn't woken up that would have been much better. it would have made her morning a much happier morning instead of having to wake up to that disgusting piece of - ugh she didn't even want to think about that when she was in the presence of her best friend. she laughed a little at liv's words. "i'm lacking house pride? speaks the slytherin who loves the gryffindor,"

[/color] nico made a heart with her hands. she adored her cousin like no other, it was really strange how different they were yet how close they were. she shrugged it off, it wasn't like she had been exactly looking for anyone, sure she had ryan and he had potential but then ben and that god forsaken night - "you're i will... one day," nico snorted. "when haven't you led me astray,"[/color] she nodded a little. a boy didn't make her life, she knew that.

nico raised an eyebrow at liv still holding her stomach. she still felt like she was going to throw up more continents of her stomach, it was strange, she wished she had the flu more than anything in the entire world at the moment. she laughed a little at liv's comment about him though. "lucky me,"[/color] she said swallowing back anything that would have come up. the fact that she had broken down was excepted... she was just extremely glad that liv was there to comfort her. nico leaned herself into her cousin, wrapping her arms around her too. she nodded at her words. "fix it... i - damn i can't believe it."[/color] she couldn't believe what she had gotten herself into, she always expected annabel to get pregnant since she was the first to have sex out of the triplets but nico? no nico had always been good... why nico.... why her. nico nodded some convincing herself that liv was right that it could just be some bug, some twenty four hour bug like she said. it had to be. just like she said. "right just some kitchen bug... right,"[/color] her breathing calmed down by miles but she was still freaking out. she nodded again and hugged her best friend around the neck. "thanks liv you're the best,"[/color] she sniffed softly before releasing her cousin. She was still a little dizzy, especially from throwing up her entire stomach and much more. somehow she hoped that liv was right... just a twenty hour bug... just a twenty four hour bug. [/div]

i have grown too strong,

"your triplets are in hufflepuff and a slytherin. you so have less house pride than me, you love more non-gryffies," it was easier when she was joking. it was a lot easier when the two of them were really just... focused on what was easy and she didn't have to start having a panic about her friends and the (possible, hypothetical, she had remind herself) pregnancy that they'd probably soon have to be dealing with. it was scary enough that she was wearing a engagement ring, when you thought about it, but being pregnant was even more scary – especially when you despised the possible father of your possible child. that was... she didn't want to think about it. especially when it was benedikt fucking perlin. the guy was pretty much the biggest dick that you could find. it would have just been easier if nico had had sex with someone who was less of a flaming asshole, but she'd kick his ass herself if it became necessary. she raised an eyebrow and poked her cousin in the side. "excuse me, i never dragged you up on a table with me... besides, most of the time ezra was trying to make sure i didn't lead myself astray, so i wasn't able to lead you along with me." she pouted a little, but she wasn't serious at all. she was lucky to have a boyfriend that was willing to help his girlfriend enough to stop her from screwing up. which she may well have done if she wasn't so careful of herself in her last year at hogwarts; now, at least, they were back in the same school and around each other more.

if she had the flu, then things would be a lot easier, and that was all that liv could really hope for at the moment. what else could she rely on at this point? really? the possibility of her cousin being pregnant or the chance of her being sick, she was going to choose the sick every time. unless it was deadly sick, and that was a thought she just had to stop. now. raising her eyebrows at her, she shook her head. "maybe you should dye your hair brown? or red? then maybe he'll stop realising that you exist." she shook her head, but ran her fingers through nico's hair gently. "well... like i said, maybe you don't have to believe it. but even if you do believe it, because it's the truth, we will fix it. you know that we're always here for you no matter what. you should know that." she frowned a little, kissing her cousin's forehead a few times. "yeah, well, it still could be a stomach bug. i threw up for three days straight after i tried to cook dinner and i didn't cook the chicken properly." she shrugged her shoulders. she'd never had to cook, and the romantic attempt to do so had thankfully not been eaten by ezra, or she would have felt terribly, terribly guilty for that. sitting back on her heels, she smiled in a way that she hoped was reassuring and probably really, really wasn't. "nah, you're just my cousin and one of my best friends. i'll always be here for you." she stood up slowly, and offered her a hand. "so, to the hospital wing?"

802 words, outfit, for alex, so maybe end this here? have a new thread soon?
