THE STORY:

Nicky met Ivy when Andrea brought her to the lunch table. She gets a little annoyed when Andrea does this sort of thing, but tolerates it in general. It turned out Nicky really liked Ivy because she was very up-front and generally an interesting personality, even if she struck her as a bit foreign. Nicky always privately thought that Ivy’s story didn’t add up, and used her job in the secretarial office to check up on her while she was snooping on her friends’ grades as well. When she found out Ivy was not actually registered for school, she confronted her, and Ivy asked her to keep that a secret. Eventually everything came out, including Andrea and Mandy’s hidden information. They decided to stay friends anyway, and now and then Ivy visits the girls at Nicky’s house and they play games or hang out or go places. Nicky enjoys knowing Ivy and thinks she’s exotic and interesting, but feels sorry for her, knowing she personally would not be able to deal with being so different.
