Niko pursed her lips comically as she poked Koi in the chest with a finger. "You just got rid of the captain of the football team, the biggest meat head in this school, and the guy who has been trailing my backside for the past month; how are you NOT excited about that?! Either way, I'm sure he's going to have detention for 'causing a disturbance' after school, so you can get out of being beat up, at least for today."<br/><br/>Niko walked the halls with him, passing some small clusters of students as they headed for their lockers. Her eagerness seemed to vanish when she recalled something important. "I almost forgot... the way you fought, that was more feline than human." She twisted the combination lock right and left, unlocking her locker and grabbing her chemistry book. "That means you're further into the transformation than I anticipated... One more outburst like last time and you'll grow something more. I don't know about you, but I don't want to come up with an excuse for a bulge in your pants..."<br/><br/>Niko seemed to look blankly into her locker, going over what had just came out of her mouth. Her face turned cherry red and she slapped her hands over her face. "Omigosh! I meant if you grow a tail! Not- UGH!" She slammed the locker door with a loud clang and hugged her books, clearly flustered. She could not understand why she kept getting like this when around him.
