Krystal shook her head. "I told you my name was Greek, didn't I? Krystallos. It's a Greek word."

Julius paced around his bedroom. Why did he have to be stuck in a love-triangle? He knew very well Delilah was upset with the fact that Krystal liked him. He also knew that Krystal was mad at him for denying her a kiss. God, girls are so complicated. Julius had no idea what do to.

Apologize to Delilah for almost kissing a girl she didn't like?

No, he's just get yelled at. Or Delilah would lie and say everything was fine. He hated it when she did that.

He could always ask Al to have someone else mentor Krystal. Yeah, that sounded like a good idea. Krystal would be out of his hair, out of Delilah's. No more jealousy, and everything would go back to normal.

Hopefully.

Julius walked out the door and headed in the direction of Al's office.

---------------------------------------------------------

Delilah groaned as she stared blankly at her Greek book. She had been up most of the night worrying about Julius and Krystal, and how they felt about each other. She couldn't even focus on what the words meant. Why couldn't they be kids again? No worries about dating or crushes, or having to save the world or study Greek.

Delilah hated Greek. Sure, she understood it well enough, it was just so ... boring. Delilah picked up her water glass and tipped it back and forth, careful not to let any liquid spill. She listened to the ice cubs clink against the sides of the glass.

Ice cubes ...

Delilah stood up. Hadn't she just looked at something? She picked up her book and began walking towards her door. She gasped. A few seconds later, the only things left in Delilah's room were her Greek book, and broken shards of glass.

All that remained of the cup she had dropped.

Julius had barely left his room when he ran into someone in the hallway. It was a person he did not want to see. Krystal. She smiled at him, blocking his way.

"Uh, Krystal?" Julius said, trying to get by her. "Could you move please?"

Krystal grasped his shoulders, looking him in the eye. "Well, Julius Chevalier, I must say, I've over-estimated you."

"Excuse me?" he asked indignantly.

The girl just smiled more. "I thought you were supposed to speak Greek."

What was she getting at? "I know bits and pieces. Why?"

Krystal shook her head. "I told you my name was Greek, didn't I? Krystallos. It's a Greek word."

"What are you getting at?" Julius asked, eyeing her suspiciously.

Rolling her eyes, Krystal leaned forward so her lips were only centimeters away from Julius' ear. "It means ..." she lowered her voice to a whisper.

"Ice!"

Before Julius could react, Krystal - or Ice - shoved him forcefully backwards. His head connected with the wall, and everything went black.

Hi guys. I must say, I'm excited for the weekend. One is because, well, it's the weekend. And two is because, if my TV is right - which it normally is - on Saturday, the D&J episdoe is The New Ice Age, and on Sunday it's Paris to Darkar. Those are two of my favourite episodes. Actually, I think the New Ice Age might be my fave ... hmm ..
