Nick Mallory is the coolest kid in the school, whom all the girls in his grade love especially Trina even though he is oblivious to her existence. He is quite narcissistic and refers to himself in third person, however, he is not antagonistic and is a very good friend to Corey and will oftentimes aid him and his friends with their band whenever they need him. He is voiced by Graeme Cornies.
Biography
17-year-old Nick Mallory is a real looker, and get this - he’s NICE too. He sits between Trina and Mina in homeroom and ALL the girls are crushing on him - EVEN the school's principal seems to be smitten with him. Maybe it’s because he’s a straight-A student, captain of the football team with all the charm of a Hollywood heartthrob. So if Nick Mallory could have anyone, why does he want Trina? Good question. It seems the more Corey and the band mess with Trina, the more interesting she becomes to Nick Mallory. He sees her differently than the rest of us and thinks Trina’s vulnerable side is a whole lot of fun and kind of adorable. Nick Mallory’s one flaw - Nick Mallory talks in third person.[2] Trina is the girl who seems to be the most desperate for him and is always trying to get a kiss with him but always fails mostly because of Corey and his band.
Appearance
Nick has brown long hair, white skin, and blue eyes that are only seen when he shows them. He wears a green shirt and a red jacket opened up over it and blue jeans. He has blackish blueish shoes. His arms and chest are big because he is very strong and muscular. He has a six-pack of abs which is only visible when he shows it and/or when he's shirtless. His six-pack became a seven-pack after the events of the episode Rockersize, but this may have been just a gag. It is unknown whether it is or isn't though because his abs were never seen in any future episodes. His voice is soothing and smooth.
Personality
Nick appears to be charming, cool, laid-back and very popular. He also seems to really love animals because he wanted to free all the so called prisoner animals in Zoohouse Rock. He talks in third person and seems to be oblivious to the fact that he is the hottest boy ever and that all the girls love him even though it's completely obvious.
Relationships
Corey Riffin

Despite Trina thinking that Corey is lame, Nick views Corey as just as cool as he is. There are several occasions where Corey has done something bad to Nick with well-intentions (usually to make Trina go into Diary Mode), however, Nick never begrudges Corey and once shrugs it off stating that "Nick assumes Corey has his reasons."
Trina Riffin

Just like all of the other girls in the entire school, Trina is in love with Nick and is always trying to get him to be hers, but Nick seems to be completely oblivious to this and even if he knows what she's trying to do, he doesn't seem to care. He thinks of her as a friend but he is constantly be seen doing things with her that would imply that they're dating even though it's been clearly mentioned that it hasn't happened between them yet. It's possible that Nick knows about Trina's love for him and he will do the things with her that she wants him to do just because he can and thinks it's kind of fun but he doesn't express any love for her in return. When doing things with her, Nick doesn't seem to care about how far he goes because on multiple occasions, he's been seen about to kiss her on the lips without hesitation, but also without care. Whenever Trina tries to make him kiss her, her attempts are always getting ruined before their lips meet. Nick always refers to her by her full name. In the first part of Hear Us Rock, the ongoing controversy of whether Nick likes Trina back or not was finally answered when Corey helped Trina work up the courage to ask out Nick and when she did, Nick said "Thanks, Trina Riffin, I'm glad you didn't tell me. It would have been awkward for the both of us." and then later, "You should say you love something only if you really do Trina Riffin. Nick loves a lot of things in this world, but not everything." This left Trina devastated and extremely furious, and in the second part, it came to the point where Trina started hating Nick and loving him at the same time, expressing her love in an extremely hateful way, just like she'd treat her worst enemy. Since then, Nick has been freaked out by her and really put-off by her nature and it is unlikely, but also unexplained that he still likes her enough to be her friend after the events of this.
Mina Beff
For more information about this section, visit: Mina and Nick
Mina and Nick are friends and Mina also is in love with Nick but she never really tries to get him to love her back because she thinks she's terrible and ugly and stupid and that no boy would ever love her, so she's fine with helping Trina get closer to taking her place as girlfriend of the boy she loves, but whenever things come up as stuff like Nick liking her more than Trina. She accidentally exposes her love for him sometimes. Despite this, there have been times where Nick Mallory has shown more interest in Mina than Trina. In "Creepaway Camp", Nick was bored of the situation and went off to get some tacos. He didn't remove Mina from the boat when he did this meaning that he was possibly enjoying having her in the boat with him and it was also a possibility that he was intending in having tacos with her. In "Love in a Nethervator", as part of Trina's plan to trap Nick Mallory in the Nethervator with her, Nick spots a giant bird (Mina in a disguise) and comments "What a pretty bird". In "Saxsquatch", Nick was set up on a double date with Mina and seemed to be very happy on his date. After Trina went into Diary Mode, Nick Mallory got out of his seat, saying he didn't want to cause any more trouble and he left the restaurant. Despite the reason he left, he seemed very sad about having to end his date with Mina. A possibility that Nick and Mina could end up together can be further suggested in Space Jammin', where Trina visualized Nick and Mina nearly kissing, and later during Sludgefest, when G'ORB (in Carrie's body) reads an entry of Trina's diary, stating that Trina fears that Nick could be more interested in Mina instead of her.
