Re: Mia and Nick
"You didn't mess up in front of Elena. You fought hurt, something any werewolf can understand." Honestly, Elena wouldn't think less of Mia. But he didn't think Mia would believe him, even if he said it. So, he went with something that Mia might accept.
"How can one dwarf give me such a headache?" Although, Nick thought it was from him essentially landing on his head after a solid jab in his abdomen.
