All this thinking was just too much for her poor little head to handle. She just needed to find an impartial Ravenclaw or a Hufflepuff. Just someone who didn't have a side to choose so that she could get a break from having to think this hard. She's still technically a second year, how is she supposed to know what's best for herself. She just needs a nice long nap. Or maybe to sing. Or play football... Or sing and play football. Just something to take her mind off of this drama that she didn't really want to be apart of, but sadly happened to be right in the center of it all.

Nika massaged the temples of her forehead as she thought of what would happen. Either way Emily was moving right? So if she did forget her there would be no harm done. The only problem is Nika has a conscious. That little conscious has a voice, a voice inside her head. The more Nika thought the dizzier she was getting. Her conscious and all of the little mini-Nikas running around in her head were going nuts! They're on code red, running around everywhere. Then poof! Nika looked at her shoulder and sure enough she could see someone there. Poof! She looked at her other shoulder and she could see someone else standing there too. She shook her head then looked back at each shoulder and sure enough the two Nika-look-a-likes were still there. One with the halo and the other with devil horns.

Oh Merlin this is going to be a long day. 'Don't let go of Emily. She was a good friend!' "But she betrayed me. She's leaving me." 'She has to. Her mom.' Nika sighed as she looked at her "angel mini-me". The other one started talking. 'Don't listen to that guy. She's just trying to make you feel guilty. Samira is right. Forget Emily.' "But she is my friend." 'Was. Was your friend.' "Can you two just go away!" Nika blinked and then they were gone. Both of them. She looked up at Samira and smiled sheepishly then back at her shoulders. Was she just imagining that all in her head. 'Oh merlin, dear merlin, don't let it be in my head. That means they won't leave.'

She heard Samira's next question and let out a sigh of relief. She'd changed the topic. "Yeah, me neither. Actually I thought it went by so fast, but bits of it went real slow." Mostly the bits with the drama, but that was an unnecessary detail. "I'm glad we're gonna be third years next term." They won't be on the bottom anymore! They'll be sorta in the middle? THe bottom of the middle, but they will be in the middle-ish nevertheless.
