Nikki nodded with a laugh at Devin's comment, knowing it was true, her brothers [i]never[/i] knocked and they were too nosy for their own good. [color=f6989d]"See you both in a few."[/color]

Although she would joke about trading them in for two older sisters, Nikki truly wouldn't give up having Finn and Lucas in her life for anything. They were her protectors, her built-in best friends, but most importantly, her brothers were her people. The Dutch girl walked into her quarters, shutting the door behind her, and began to unpack her belongings from the trunk that was placed right in front of her bed. 

All in all, Nikki was quite proud of herself for pushing through her anxiousness. Making friends and small talk was always hard for her, especially in situations like this, but Devin and Kat made her feel comfortable, which was not a feeling she expected to have so soon. Maybe this was a sign that being here at the academy was going to help her grow. Pulling some clothes out of the trunk, Nikki began loading things into the dresser. In typical fashion, she didn't know what to pack, so the girl seemed to pack everything and [i]anything[/i] she could possibly need.

Tucked neatly between some clothes, she found her two prized picture frames. Propping them on her nightstand, she gazed lovingly at the photographs she had brought. The smiles her family wore in the photos were contagious, one being of her and her parents at her 14th birthday just last year, and the other of her and her brothers on Christmas morning from a few years back. Nikki loved her family with all of her heart, and she knew that although it would be hard being away from them, this was the right move to ensure her future. 

Hearing a small knock on the door, the girl didn't hesitate to open it, coming face to face with the Canadian boy. [color=f6989d]"You kept your word, what a gentleman. Finn and Lucas ought to learn some manners from you."[/color] She spoke with a giggle escaping from her lips. [color=f6989d]"You wouldn't believe it, but I've never tried ramen before. Moeder has never let me have it. Do you know how much sodium is in there? Kat, I think your candy may be healthier than this stuff."[/color]
