"Okay, but I'm pretty good, I beat Nick all the time," Kat told her.  She was just relieved to be staying.  "Julia?  Why's everyone so mad? Everything was okay earlier."  This was something that really did confuse her.  How had things gotten so bad so fast?
 
 
Julia knew it had to do with something Alex had said... so that would be the first place she'd hit to try and find out.
 
"Dunno, actually.  Except that something happened, people got worried and when people get worried.. they can get angry, not realizing that it's fear that's making them frustrated at each other.  It'll work out, Kat.  They just have to take a time out and realize that they're wanting the same things." she assured her as they reached and entered the house, Julia easily jogging up the stairs and ignoring the small bursts of pain each upward motion caused  "Let's go see how Alex is doing.. I'm pretty sure she has something I can put on my head.  Then we'll see if you can beat me."
