THIS, my dear readers, is what happens when Mckenzie gets bored. And has a pairing that consists of Nix\Alec. And wants to write something like this. Yes, this is the beginning of short stories about Nix and Alec. Nix is usually still human in these short stories, and is thirteen, though I will alert you, nonetheless, if Nix is a vampire or has a different age. Enjoy! DISCLAIMER: I do not own Alec Volturi, or the Twilight Saga. I merely own Nix. No money is being made off this.

"Volturi Boy. Your nickname will be Volturi Boy." Phoenix Hale announced to the vampire in front of her.

"Volturi Boy? What kind of a nickname is Volturi Boy?" Alec asked, smirking a bit. "I am not a boy, and while I may be a Volturi-"

"Technically, you are a boy, Alec. You look like a teenager, and you could probably pass for a twelve year old, at youngest. Deal with it." Phoenix corrected, smugly smiling a bit. Alec sighed. "Besides, I think it's a cute nickname."

"Well, then, if you're to give me a childish nickname, I get to give you one, too." Alec replied, nodding a bit. "Your name is easy to make a nickname out of. And even if, I do not really like the nickname everyone uses for you. Nix. It's slang for 'No', which is odd, and I don't think you are a 'No'." Alec mused. "Oh, and by the way, you could probably pass for a seven year old, given your height." He smiled.

"I happen to like that nickname, though. And I'm not short, Al-"

"Nixie."

"Excuse me? What do you mean by Nixie?" Phoenix asked, scoffing a bit.

"Nixie. I will call you Nixie. It means 'Sprite'. Which is like a fairy, which is related to the pixie. This just happens to be what you look like. So I'll call you Nixie." Alec said, smirking still. Phoenix rolled her eyes. She did NOT like being called a pixie. Or a fairy. Or a sprite.

"Nixie? Seriously, Volturi Boy? You should know by now that I hate being called a pixie." Phoenix pouted.

"Well, you can call me Volturi Boy, but only if I can call you Nixie. Seems fair game, considering both names are pretty odd." Alec shrugged. They were unusual nicknames for the two.

"...Fine. But even if, do you know how hard it is to make a nickname out of a name like Alec? I mean, it is a four-letter-word. And my mother shares a similar name to it, so if I use a nickname out of that, then I'll feel like I'm in an incest relationship." Phoenix ranted on, while Alec just smiled while watching her.

"Then you're more than allowed to use the name Volturi Boy. No matter how much I detest it." Alec interrupted Phoenix once more.

"...You…don't…like it?" Phoenix looked up at Alec pitifully, tears beginning to form. Damn, that girl is good at guilt tripping.

"Oh, no, Nixie, I love the name..." Alec said quickly. He really did NOT like it when Phoenix cried. "Please don't cry…" Alec added swiftly. "Nixie, don't cry, you know I hate it when you cry…" Tears were streaming down Phoenix's face. Alec immediately felt guilty. "Please, Phoenix, I like it when you call me Volturi Boy…"

The tears immediately stopped flowing.

"Oh, good!" Phoenix exclaimed, and then randomly hugged Alec. She smiled. "Volturi Boy." The dry tears were still streaked around Phoenix's pale face, though she did not have any new tears leaking through.

Alec merely chuckled at his Nixie.

XD Nix is good at guilt tripping, eh? But you have to admit, it's pretty cute when she uses it on Alec. More short stories to come! :]
