Alex rubbed Nix's back lightly, between the shoulder blades, making soft 'shh' noises as he did so. He remembered that that had always helped to calm him down when he'd gone to his mother with something that upset him. He hoped it would do the same for Nix, because she seemed to need some calming down right now.
As he listened to her story, Alex could feel his own heart twisting with grief. He'd seen Nix with Hugo before, known that they liked each other. But he'd also met Hugo before; after all, Alex was a prefect, and Hugo was Head Boy. The logical part of him told him that this didn't really sound like the sort of thing that Hugo would usually do, but at the moment he was so angry that he didn't care.
"That's terrible, Nix. He shouldn't have done that; you deserve better than that," Alex told her, pulling away enough that he could look her in the eyes. "You deserve a lot better than that."

Lita sniffled a little bit, wiping the tears off of her cheeks with the back of her hand. Fitting perfectly in Hugo's embrace, she let out a sigh of relief. He didn't exactly seem to hate her. Licking her lower lip slowly, she nodded her head at his statement. She knew exactly what he was talking about, or rather, whom he was talking about. She still needed to figure out what she was going to do about that. She would work it out later, right now, she just needed to get into less tight and flashy clothing. Standing up with Hugo, she used him to hold herself up as she slipped her heels back on.
Lita hadn't a clue where or what they were going to do. She didn't have a jacket or a cloak, and it had been cold and rainy. She had become some what lazy with her magic after she turned seventeen. Apperating had become her second favorite sport. Holding on to Hugo's hand, she crossed one arm over her chest and grasped her forearm with her free hand. "Where are we going?" she asked quietly. At this very moment, something rare happened, Lita was giving Hugo complete control of the situation.

Nix felt Alex pull away from her and look her in the eyes and she dipped her head away from him, and looked at a puddle on the ground and watched the rain drops fall on to it as she heard a door shut and she flinched. She lifted her head and looked towards where she had heard the sound and spotted lita and Hugo, they were just walking out if the tea shop and nix felt her eyes burn and her skin go hot again. She wanted to hurt both of them but at the same time she didn't because they were freinds and they got on, she gave a small moan and dropped her head and felt the heat sap away from her and she dropped her head in to alexs sholder again ,"it'll never happen, people don't see me as having emotions, I'm just always happy and fun and mad to people, not normal" she said in a defeated voice

Alex put his arms back around Nix, since it was really the only place for them to go. He was feeling a bit awkward at this point. He wasn't used to hugging people, especially crying people, who were older than him. Sure, he'd comforted his sister numerous times, but she was little; smaller even than Pixie. He was certain that comforting someone so much older than that would be different, and to tell the truth, Alex had no clue how exactly to go about doing that.
He rubbed Nix's back a little more and allowed his head to rest softly on top of hers, turned sideways so he could speak without talking into her hair. "That's ridiculous," he protested softly. "Of course you have emotions, anyone can see that. No one can live life with so much energy and not have emotions. And just look at Pixie; any idiot can see how much you love and care for her."
It felt weird to talk while someone had their head on his chest. He could feel the vibrations like a deep rumbling. It wasn't a wholly unpleasant feeling, but it was still weird.

Nix gave a small sniff and then nodded her head weakly, "people just think im always happy and cheery, they dont give me a chance to show all my emotions ,aside anger" she said in a watery voice. She leaned away from alex a little and then sighed again and reached her hand in to the inside of her robes, of course nix would wear robes out to a date, she flicked it in her fingers a little before looking up at alex, "thanks for the sholder, i need someone to realise im human some times, i mean i can understand why hugo picked her, who would ever pick me?" she said in a bitter voice before she leaned away from alex totally and turned to face the street again

Hugo looked surprised at Lita. "Did you seriously just ask me where to go?" In all the times he was with Lita, he never remembered her ever asking for his opinion on a decision. It was a little odd to say the least. He ran his fingers through his fine hair and thought of where to go. They could always go back to Hogwarts but that's kind of lame considering it's still a bit early. He side glanced at her and realized they were out in the rain and she barely had anything on. "I told you you should've put more clothes on," he muttered disapprovingly as he took his robe off and gently placed it around her shoulders.
Going back to thinking, he was surveying the immediate area when he saw Nix with Alex again a few hundred feet from them. He quickly turned his head to look the other way. It was useless though because he was positive the two had already seen them standing there. Sighing, he turned back to look at them and with a pang in his chest, he realized Nix was still crying. Hugo felt like he should go apologize and he even took a few steps toward them to do so but quickly stopped. He was sure he was the last person Nix wanted to see. Turning back to Lita, he said, "Why don't we go to the Three Broomsticks and have a proper date?"

Alex could help but feel a little disappointed when Nix pulled away from him completely. As foreign as the feeling had been, he'd still enjoyed it quite a bit. Probably more than he was really willing to admit. But what Nix said next hit him straight in the heart.
"Who would pick you? Any fool in his right mind, that's who," he said. He paused for a moment; dare he go on? He wasn't sure whether or not he ought to say what he was thinking; it might scare her away. But Alex decided it was best to tell her. She had the right to know, anyway.
"I know I sure would," he said softly, looking away. He didn't think he could bare it if Nix was angry at him for saying it, but she needed to know. Right?

Lita shook her head, clearing her thoughts and looked up at him. "Hugo... I was just thrown across a room and smashed into a table. I'm still a little dazed and confused." She swallowed, licking her lips, and looking around. Feeling him place his robe around her, she curled into it, and against him, "I thought the dress would catch your attention.... I knew you liked my legs...." She shrugged lightly, still not on top of it like she usually was. Feeling him grab her hand and take a few steps toward where she knew Nix and Alex were standing, she took a few silent steps behind him. Lita knew what was going through his mind, she had known him forever, he wanted to appologize for what happened for her stupidity on pulling that stunt. She wasn't going to appologize though. There was no way in hell she would kill her pride that much.
Feeling him pull her in the other direction, Lita looked up at him in confussion, "An actual date? Uhhm, sure." She was slightly taken aback, but she was okay with it. She would fallow him to the ends of the Earth at this point.

Nix froze as Alex spoke and she turned around slowly, this was her good freind and the boy who helped her plan qudditch tactics and annoyed her freind ange by doing so which was already always a fun and good thing. She felt heat rush up her neck when she thought about all the times they had gone flying together or met in the library to discuss tactics and she felt her face go warm ,"how long?" she asked in a dry voice she she lifted a cold hand and pressed to her burning cheek to try and cool herself down. She had never thought that she could like two people at once but the more she thought about her and Alex the more it seems to make sense in her head

Hugo couldn't help but laugh at her at the mention of her legs. "Well you're right about me liking your legs," he said smiling at her. Hugo thought of squeezing her thigh for emphasis but decided against it. Instead, he squeezed her hand and dashed across the street to try to not get as wet as possible. Giving one last fleeting glance at Nix and Alex, he opened the door to the Three Broomsticks and motioned for Lita to enter. "After you, my lovely," he said winking at her.
Hugo honestly didn't know how he felt. He still liked Nix and that was for sure. But it seemed like him and Lita were getting along well enough. It was then that he realized Lita was still with James. He couldn't help but smile at himself. He was finally getting back at that loser and couldn't wait to rub it in his face the next time they met.

It took Alex a couple of seconds to realize that Nix had asked him a question, and he blushed furiously, staring down at his shoes.
"Well... that's just the thing... I'm not precisely sure..." he muttered. "I think it may have started that time when you showed me how I could play Quidditch and still hold on to my broom with both hands." He was speaking, of course, about the very first time that they had met. It had only been the very beginning of the feeling, really, and for a long time after the feeling had puzzled Alex. It still did.
Glancing up, Alex saw how flushed Nix was, and he felt a pang of guilt. "I- I didn't mean to embarrass you..." he said awkwardly. It honestly hadn't been his intention.

*lets speed this up fori  * Nix felt her neck get warmer as she listened to alex talk and the next thing she knew her legs were moving forwards. Here was a guy she had known for a fair while and she got on with really well and someone she knew she could trust, as soon as she let her brain consider the two of them it seemed it was taking action for her. She soon closed the small gap she had made between her and alex and then she paused as her brain stopped working for a moment and gave her back control of her body and then there was a simple thought in her head ,"why not? find three god reasons". And with that she bent forwards and kissed her freind *that should make things fun* |

Alex watched Nix with some concern. She wasn't saying anything, just stepping closer to him. Why wasn't she saying anything? Was she that angry? But she didn't look angry. Was she going to hit him or something? Alex could feel his heart beat faster as she paused before him, nearly touching him. What was she doing? And then... she kissed him.
It was a good thing that Alex was standing with his back against a wall, because without it he redoubtably would have fallen over. His mind was going haywire, and he couldn't think straight. A warm, tingly feeling spread over his body. As the kiss broke off, Alex just stood there, staring dumbfounded at Nix, and he had a horrible feeling that his mouth was probably hanging open. He just couldn't seem to be able to muster the effort to shut it. After a few moments of awkward silence, the boy finally found his voice, though his brain hadn't quite caught up to him yet.
"But... I thought.... but you..... and Hugo.... what?" was what came out of his mouth. This was possibly the most confused Alex had ever been. Or looked.

Lita shook her head slightly and chuckled. She was so impressed with how things were going, she was actually at a bit of a loss for words. She was used to things going her way, but she definitely didn't expect it to go over this easily. Or well, end this nicely. Grasping his hand, she fallowed in his stride across the street perfectly even though in heels and upon reaching the door, she waited for him to open it before walking in. She smirked softly to herself as he called her 'my lovely'. Oh how she could get used to that again. Shrugging out of his cloak, Lita folded it over one arm and used her free hand to pull her hair down from the messy ponytail she had pulled it up in. Shaking her head slightly, she allowed her hair to fall over her shoulder in loose waves.
Turning on her toe, she headed toward a table near the back. Lita liked attention. No matter who from. If they showed the slightest bit of interest, she was all for it, even if it was a tiny smirk or wink. Shifting her hips naturally from side to side, she paused long enough to look over her shoulder and smile at Hugo, "You coming?" She grinned, reaching the table and sitting down, crossing her legs at her knees and allowing her foot to bounce at the ankle slightly.
