IIRC there's something in Autumn Term about Tim feeling that the people on whom she bestows her friendship shouldn't ask anything more of life. Maybe when she realises Nicola has made friends with Miranda, rather than either waiting for a little of Tim's spare attention or going all pathetic at her, Tim is jealous and/or angry?
Also, there's the form prefect thing in End of Term; Tim and Nicola have been prefects together before, so Tim is obviously popular enough to be elected, but when Crommie chooses, she's "not good enough". And there are Nicola and Miranda together again.
