Watching everything unfold before her, Lita almost lost it. She held a cute smile on her face nonetheless. She could pull this out of the deep end easily enough. Lifting her leg just enough she rested the toe of her stilleto on Hugo's chair right between his legs. All it took was a little preasure and he would understand exactly where she was coming from.She was sure to keep herself as gentle sounding as possible. "You know very well that I was the best girlfriend you ever had. No offense, Nix."

Nix felt her neck go warm again but she said nothing as she felt hugos arm around her ,it was weird for her to actually have human contact with someone else seeing as she was normally sharp and quick to speak to others by she never really came close to people. Hugos arm pulled away and nix turned to look at him only to see the curly blonde hair of the waitress walking back over to them, nix felt a grin grow on her face as she spotted her drink on the tray and as the girl walked over nix reached over hugos right sholder and took her drink from the tray. It was in a long and twisted glass and was filled wih four different coloured liquids with a long black straw poking through all the layers ,nix put It down on the table and grinned as she pulled out the straw and laid it down on a napkin beside her and then she looked at her drink and sniggered to herself

Hugo raised his eyebrows at Lita. "Best girlfriend I ever had? Try worst," he said smugly. Actually, Lita was the best girlfriend he ever had. The only thing that went wrong was at the end of their relationship, naturally. Most other girls are too shy to talk to him or once they do, they're so nervous that they talk gibberish. It quite unnerved Hugo because he just wanted a nice girl to talk to. Most of the dates he went on were disasters. This one date with Nix is actually kind of nice, even if Lita was right there across from them.
Hugo noticed Nix reaching behind him for her drink. He turned to her and kind of half smiled at her. The waitress thumped his butterbeer in front of him, sloshing out a good quarter of his drink out. He looked up at her in a semi glare and she just fakely apologized for the mess before throwing napkins on the table. Taking a swig of his drink, he noticed something between his legs. Glancing down, he saw Lita's shoe. Almost choking on his butterbeer, he set the glass down and tried pushing her shoe away simultaneously. What is she doing to me?

Nix was sitting there far too cooly for Lita's liking. How was she not freaking out right now about having been set up on a date by the ex-girlfriend herself? Lita seriously needed to figure things out quick before she was the one to storm out of the sho instead of the person she actually had in mind. Feeling Hugo attempt to push her shoe away, she actually dropped it to the floor casually with a smirk on her lips. Waiting for the waitress to leave, she gently pushed her tea aside before standing up, "Honestly, I don't know see how a man could even try to hide feelings that I know for a fact are there. I shouldn't have set this up, Nix, I'm really sorry." Walking around the table, her long legs excentuated by the short dress and tall heels, she paused right in front of Hugo, placed her delicate hand under his chin and bent at her waist, placing her lips to his in a quick yet fiery kiss. It was the only thing she could think of to really grab anyone's attention and potentially get what she ultimately wanted, which was him.

Nix felt her heart stop. Her skin burned hot again and she looked down to see it growing darker and she then felt tears begin well up in her eyes and while she knew it was unfair and that lita didn't have a single chance she pulled her wand out the the strap across the back of her dress and flicked it at the other gryffindor ,"explusio" she hissed and there as a sound like a cannon and the other girl was blasted backwards across the shop and she smashed in to another table across from them as nix stood up and looked at Hugo. "well? Was she telling the truth? Do you still have feeling for her?" nix snarled as tears stream down her face and her skin grew tight and she felt her hair begin to get warm ,"bloody tell me before you get a full grown beast of a problem in here" she hissed, she knew Hugo knew because she had shown him her animagus form before and he knew a over grown timber wolf being in a tea shop would not be a good idea
*I've never made nix cry...wow...this is so weird*

Hugo was definitely not expecting his lips being met by anyone else's, especially Lita's. The shock of the whole situation overcame him and he didn't quite know what to do. The familiarity of her lips was kind of sweet but it was wrong, so so wrong to do this in front of Nix. He was a bit grateful for her to blast her away from him. At the same time, he was a little bit angry for having that feeling torn away from him. Rounding on Nix, he was about to tell her off for hurting Lita like that but didn't as he saw tears streaming down Nix's face.
"Nix! I'm so sorry you had to witness that, I-" He was cut off by her question. Hugo didn't know how to reply. He knew what she wanted her to hear and knew what he felt and those two just didn't match up. Wanting to assuage her, he opened and closed his mouth several times to say something but to no avail. Hugo instead opted to stay silent. The only thing that he could think of was, I'm so sorry... It was like this whole date spiraled out of control due to Lita. Hugo was so angry. Angry for having to hurt Nix like this, angry for Lita manipulating him, and angry for just the whole situation.

*I'll do this post now so I can buzz Alex in for us all*
Nix felt her skin boil and she reached her hand up and tugged at a strand of hair to find it had turned back and she felt her eyes so warm too, black hair and amber eyes, a good look for her. "NOTHING, YOU WON'T SAY ANYTHING" she screamed before flicking her wand again ,"you dickhead" she hissed as she felt her head heat up and her sight blurred as she muttered ,"stupefy". The bolt of red light shot from wand tip and blasted Hugo square in the chest sending him slamming backwards only to land on top of lita ,"now your happy" nix snarled, her voice was dry and scratchy as she was half way through her animagus hands and change and her hair would now be jet black, her eyes a blazing yellow, and her teeth sharpened as she growled and then walked pass the pair and stormed out in to the street

Tasting the sweetness of Hugo's lips was all she could think about at that moment. That was, until she was blasted off her feet, pain seering through her body from every angle. She had luckily landed on her rear, her legs cocked at the knees and her hair falling into her face. Her breathing was laboured, shallow, her chest hurting far more than she had expected it to. Taking the time for one deep breath, she brushed her hair out of her face and pulled a ponytail holder out of one of the pockets in her dress. Wincing, she pulled her hair up into a messy bun and slipped her heels off of her feet. She attempted to stand up, the other customers offering her their help, but she refused. Rubbing the back of her neck, wincing from pain, she slumped back against the table, the pain keeping her off her feet. She was actually pissed off. She wouldn't have minded an old school fist fight, but to be hexed without even standing a chance? That was beyond wrong, and if she wasn't in so much pain, she would have taken the girl on with no magic neccissary. She was going to keep quiet for a moment though, and attempt to catch her breath a little bit.
Sitting there, she had missed the whole conversation between Hugo and Nix, and with her head burning with pain, she honestly didn't care what they were talking about. She held her head low, attempting to catch her breath still. It was not a second later that her vision was filled with a red light and her body was pressed against the ground by a heavy weight. A single tear had managed to escape her dark eyes as she saw pulled herself up and realized that it was Hugo. It was one thing to hex her, but to hex Hugo? No. That wasn't going to end well. She gestured with her head from a customer to Hugo and he seemed to understand as he pulled out his wand and flicked his wrist. She wrapped her arms around him, cradling him to her chest. "I'm so sorry, Hugo... I never expected it to end this way..." She was holding back her tears as well as she could, but a few escaped here and there.

"Nix, NO!" he cried out but it was too late, the red light struck him and it was all he could do but crash back onto Lita. Seeing Nix so angry hurt him deeply since he knew he was the cause of her anger. Knowing that she was going all furry on him, he watched desperately from Lita's arms as Nix ran off almost in her full animagus form. "She called me a-" Hugo ran out of breath and didn't bother to go on. Instead he sat up and pulled his knees up. He rested his head in his hands as he played everything over again in his mind. How could all of this had happened? So quickly nonetheless.
It was obvious people were staring at them and the mess they've made but he didn't care. All he wanted right now was to get out of this shop. Hugo turned and looked at Lita all tear stricken. "Come here," he said gently. Hugo slowly wrapped his arms around Lita's slight frame and drew her closer to him.

Lita was suprised, but in so much shock that she couldn't really react to that surprise. She wiped at her tears with the back of her hand and curled in next to Hugo. They needed to get out of there and talk about everything. The scene that had unfolded was much larger than she had ever expected it to be. It was extremely wrong of her to have done what she did, but she had a good reason for it. She looked up at Hugo and sniffled a little before speaking softly, "I tried... I thought I could get you two together... but I couldn't. I wanted you to myself and I was far too jealous... I couldn't stop myself. I'm so, so, so sorry, Hugo." The tears began streaming down her cheeks now and she wasn't going to try and stop them until they were done.

*nix was still human, and I think we should wait on Alex now or he'll be left behind*
Nix walked out of the door and walked about twenty steps away from the shop and then she felt the pain in her chest peak. She felt like someone had punched her heart directly ,she felt all the heat from her body and all the power from her change sap away and she dropped to the rain soaked ground and felt the rain soak through her dress and drip in to her now red hair and her tears streamed down her face. She could feel that her eyes were warm but she knew the was from her tears and not from the change of her energy. She dropped her head and her now dripping hair fell around her face and she shivered and lifted her hands to reached for her shoulders and then she paused she dropped her hands and they grazed across the ground and she felt warm blood trickle from the back to her hands as she tipped forwards and twisted her hands and pressed her palms against the uneven rain soaked path way

*Yay campground wifi!*
Alex scowled as the rain soaked his bangs, plastering them to his forehead. It was bad enough that they were always in his eyes, but now they were practically glued there. He pushed them away best he could, pulling up the hood of his robe as far over his face as it would go.
Alex was already in a bad mood. As he'd been walking to the Three Broomsticks, he'd glanced in a tea shop's window and had spotted Nix, Lita, and Hugo sitting inside. They had all been dressed up, and Hugo had been sitting next to Nix, his arm around her shoulders. A strange, burning feeling had coursed through him, and he'd looked away quickly, double-timing it to get away. Yet, even though he could no longer see them together, the image was burnt into his mind, and it made him feel strangely angry.
Once he'd reached the Three Broomsticks, he'd drained his butterbeer quickly. He usually liked to stick around and talk to Mrs. Longbottom, who ran the place, and sip at his butterbeer, enjoying the flavor, but since seeing Hugo and Nix in the tea shop, the mood had gone and he just wanted to get back to the castle; to drown this strange, newfound angry sorrow in learning and putting together a new Quidditch strategy.
So here he was, hurrying back down the street, hands now shoved deep in the pockets of his robe, face sullen. It was then that he spotted her. Nix was now outside the tea shop, and the rain was dripping down her face. Wait, no, those were... tears? But Nix never cried. Alex's heart began to hurt. Whatever had happened, it had to have been horrible. Had something happened to Hugo? Lita? Was Nix hurt? He rushed to her side, grabbing her shoulders gently and leading her to an overhang where they could sit out of the rain.
"Nix, what's wrong?" Alex tried to keep his voice low and gently, but concern for Nix brought a somewhat sharp edge to his tone.

Nix hears foot falls coming from up the road but she didn't move or say anything, she felt like she couldn't breath as it was, the next thing she knew someone had their hands on her shoulders and was helping her up and out of the middle of the street. Once she was out of the rain she heard a voice asking if she was ok and she lifted her head a little to see Alex, he had been a freind of hers for a while and had helped her out out with qudditch stuff before but she felt the pain in her chest peak again and couldn't help but leaned her head on his chest ,"If this was ok, I'd hate to see happy" she said in a broken and dry voice despite the tears still streaming down her face and now soaking alexs shirt

As Nix leaned on his chest, Alex felt something seem to stick in his throat as his heart tightened. He hated to see her like this, so... defeated. It just wasn't Nix. To see her cry was such a shock that he didn't even react to what she'd said for several seconds.
Once he'd figured out approximately what had happened, he did the only thing that felt natural. Alex folded Nix into a light hug, patting her back like he could remember his mother doing for him whenever he was upset.
"Can you tell me what happened?" he asked softly. He didn't want to push anything, and he wasn't going to make her talk about whatever it was that happened if she didn't want to talk about it, even though he was practically dying to figure out what was happening. He couldn't help it; it was part of his Ravenclaw nature.

Hugo couldn't help but smile at her when she said she was jealous. He pulled her back a little from him to get a good look at her face. So beautiful... "You were jealous?" he asked her laughing a little. "I was pretty jealous too. About- well you know..." he said trailing off. Hugo brought her back into a tight embrace before pulling away again. Every inch of his body was telling him to get out of the shop. He was tired of the weird looks they were getting. Standing up, he helped Lita to her feet before dusting himself off. Picking up his robe from the floor, he pulled it on before giving the mess they've made one last sweeping glance.
It was then that he noticed Alex and Nix a little ways down from the shop they were in. His heart clenched a little at the sight of them. It was mostly because Nix was in so much pain. She's right. I am a dickhead. What was wrong with Hugo? This just wasn't like him. Pulling his robe a little tighter around him, he grabbed Lita's hand as a way to comfort himself. He turned his head to look at her and grimaced a little.
