Nixie

(One - Drum)

    Nixie was annoyed with Toni Topaz at the moment. The tan girl had walked up to her and was currently telling her some pick-up lines.

   
    Leaning against the blue lockers of South Side High she rolled her eyes as Toni went to continue.

    "How about this one-" Nixie stopped Toni before she could continue.

     "Toni, look I'm seriously trying not to be rude, but could you possibly shut up or go away?" Nixie asked with a cringe.

     Toni, with her mouth still agape, nodded and quieted down. The moment of silence didn't last long, "Okay the real reason I'm over here is because of Sweets. We both know he has a crush on you an-"

    "He doesn't have a crush, okay? He just wants someone to beat his drum." Nixie added with a snicker. "So please, make both are days bright and happy or whatever that shit is, and tell him to scram."

    Toni shook her head, "Okay how about instead of 'beating his drum' we just beat him." Toni's eyes widened and she let out a spur of words, "I-I n- not what I wa- was, I mean." she cleared her throat, "How about we get back at him?"

    "Hmm, get back at him. What'd he do to you to make you so pissed?" Nixie asked as she eyes Toni with suspicion.

     "He told Topanga he was sleeping with me as a joke, and then the next thing you know I have no girlfriend." Toni said with a shrug. Toni wasn't upset about the break up, Topanga on the other hand was devastated and it made Toni feel bad so out of instinct she got mad at Sweet Pea.

    "What a dick move, he should've said that to Fangs' girl, would've been something nice to watch on Friday." Nixie said shaking her head, "Well I suppose I'm okay with getting him back for you. And if you say he likes me then I have a plan up my sleeve. You free tomorrow morning?"

    Toni shook her head, "No I've got to show this new kid around. After school maybe?"

    "Hmm, okay. What's the kids name?" Nixie didn't care for the kid, she just wanted to make sure Sweet Pea hadn't sent her over here to mess with her.

     "Forsythe, weird name but we'll deal." She shrugged with a smile. "Seeya!" She waved and walked away to Simon.

Sweet Pea stood next to his small group of friends during their physical education class and stared down anyone who dared look their way. Sweet Pea had his arm around Toni and his eyes searched the small gym for the small strawberry blonde that seemed to be in his train of thought 24/7.

    Nixie, as per usual, was sat at the darkest unnoticeable corner of the room but she wasn't as unnoticed as she thought. Sweet Pea had spotted her and was now walking, well it looked more like a skip, in her direction.

    "Oh Bluue!" Sweet Pea called out in a sicky sweet voice. He let out a laugh of satisfaction when Nixie let out a loud groan.

    "How many times do I tell you not to call me that." Nixie said in a low voice as he approached. "Go away, Tights."

    "That was once!" He exclaimed loudly shooting Nixie a glare.

    One time in middle school Toni and Sweet Pea thought it would be fun to try out for the school play. Sweet Pea was casted a tree and Toni as the main role, the trees were required to dance and other roles sung.

    For the dancers they had to learn simple ballet moves... And they also had to where green tights, Nixie had to be removed from practice because every time Sweet Pea would do a spin she would fall to the floor in tears.

    "Actually it was a whole week." Nixie piped up with a smirk. " 'I can't do this, everything is too tight' 'I'm losing all feeling in my feet' 'Do I still have legs'?" Nixie imitated in a small squeaky voice.

    Sweet Pea gave her a glare and scrunched his nose up, "You know I would be mad that you deemed my manly voice in such a manner, but that was adorable." Sweet Pea immediately let out a fits of coughs, "I mean, at lease I don't sound like prepubescent teenage boy."

    Nixie raised an eyebow, "Oh really?"

    "Hey I only sounded like that because I was a prepubescent teenage boy." Sweet Pea defended.

    "Look at Nixie, flirting up a storm." Toni taunted as she stepped next to Sweet Pea.

    Nixie rolled her eyes and pushed herself up, "Later Toni." She mumbled and walked over to where the coach was.
