Another chapter to Love in the Ice! Please enjoy readers, also I do not own the rights to DAT!

Sam watched as Brian picked himself up and stormed off to the other side of the room, looking out the window as he continued to rub his chin and jaw repeatedly.

"What happen?" Sam asked, trying to piece together what he just saw as he walked over to J.D and Kyle.

"Well while you two were gone collecting books, Kyle came over and started talking to a few of us. Everything was going fine until for some ungodly reason Brian stood up and interjected that Kyle should leave just like the others did. I gave him what he rightfully deserved, the last thing we need is for attitudes and hostility like that." J.D said, rubbing his knuckles now as he turned to sit down. Obviously what Brian had said had made everyone else upset as well as they now refused to be near him or look his way

Sam walked over to Kyle was still looked pretty shaken at the moment. Trying to calm him down Sam placed a hand on his arm and tried getting Kyle to look at him.

"Hey...are you okay?" Sam asked, to which Kyle nodded his head slowly and backed away slightly.

"I...just need some air. I'm going to go take a walk." said Kyle, causing a look of hurt to form over Sam's face as he watched Kyle turn to walk out the door.

"Kyle wait"

"Sam...let him be for now." Laura said softly as she took Sam's arm to keep him from going after him.

Sam continued to look at the empty doorway for a few more seconds till turning his gaze over to where Brian was standing. Slowly Sam made his way over there as he felt a wave of anger and rage build up inside of him.

"Brian...why did you say that?" said Sam, who was now standing behind the shorter teen who's gaze was fixed on the window in front of him. When he got no answer Sam only felt the anger build up more and more as he clenched his fists together.

"Brian! Answer me!" Sam yelled out, causing the teen in front of him to jump slightly. He watched as Brian's gaze turned slightly as Brian stared at him.

"Sam, it doesn't matter anymore. What's done is done." Brian said quietly, pushing Sam's anger over the edge.

"IT DOES MATTER! You basically told him to die, you know as much as I do that he would die out there in that storm like anyone else. Tension is high enough as it is, if you haven't noticed there is a massive snowstorm outside that could potentially kill us! That's not even the point here right now, the point is why did you say what you did!" Sam yelled, his face flushing red with anger as he stared down the guy he had known to always be kind and shy to everyone he met.

"I heard you two talking last night Sam. You opened up to him about things you've never even told me and we are suppose to be best friends. I heard you laughing, heard him crying and you comforting him. Sam you've let a perfect stranger closer to yourself than you've ever let me." Brian said sharply, his voice laced with jealousy and envy as he turned his gaze back towards the window completely ignoring the fact that Sam was beat red with anger right now.

"So because I happen to tell him thing's I haven't told you, you say something like that? If that's your way of dealing with things, then I'm not sure we were close to ever begin with then. I would know if someone was as cruel halfhearted as you Brian. Our priority is make sure we make it out of this alive, and your focusing on that? Maybe if you quit thinking about yourself for a moment you might see that he needs someone too. He's been separated from his family, friends, and way of life just like all of us. Maybe think about that next time you wanna throw words around." Sam said, turning to walk away. "Oh and Brian, if you ever threaten anyone like that again, not only are we not friends anymore I will deal with you myself." Sam continued to say as he walked off. The rest of the group watched as Sam walked out of the room, turning to glance at Brian one last time before looking away.

Sam held his arms close together as he walked down the dimly lit hallways searching for Kyle, his breath coming out in small wisps of fog as he shivered lightly. That's when he noticed one of the doors slightly ajar as he walked up towards it and slowly pushed it open. As he opened the door Sam noticed it was the room they had found Kyle in only days ago, and there was Kyle standing by the broken window. Snow had steadily collected on the ground as it blew in along with the freezing air, making it much colder.

"Your gonna catch something if your not careful ya know." Sam said lightly as he came up and stood next to the troubled looking teen, his green eyes scanning the storm outside.

"Hey, I'm sorry for what happen. I talked with him, you shouldn't have to deal with anything else like that anymore." said Sam, only getting silence in return.

"Kyle...you okay?" Sam said after getting no response from him, placing a hand on his arm causing Kyle to turn his gaze slightly to look at him.

"Yea, I'm fine. Just thinking is all, wondering if I'll ever get out of this place." Kyle said sadly, looking off into the distance once more.

"Hey don't think like that. We are all going to get out of here, I promise. I know your worried about your family, you'll see them again." Sam said, rubbing Kyle's arm tenderly as he smiled gently at him.

"Thanks Sam, for everything. I'm pretty sure had I stayed on that rooftop for another day, that I wouldn't be alive right now. But thanks to you guys, I am." said Kyle, looking at Sam once again. In the light of the storm, though dim, Sam could see that Kyle was extremely pale. Something he hadn't noticed this morning when they both woke up.

"Hey, are you feeling alright? You don't look to well, come here real quick." Sam said as he stepped a bit closer to him, placing a hand against Kyle's forehead causing him to blush slightly.

"Kyle, your burning up." Sam said worriedly as he continued to feel around Kyle's forehead.

"I just feel a tad nauseous is all, maybe it's just the flu." Kyle said, obviously trying to calm Sam's worries.

"I don't know...hows your hand doing." Sam said, turning his attention to Kyle's bandaged hand as he picked it up and inspected it.

"It hurts still, but I'm sure I'm fine Sam, really." he said, but still not convincing Sam any.

"Okay, well I think you should lay down for a bit and see how you feel. I'll get you some water and something small to eat. How's that sound?" Sam asked, stepping back as he noticed the small hint of a blush on Kyle's face.

"Sounds good to me, it's getting too cold anyways. Feels like we won't be able to take these lovely walks for much longer if the temperature keeps dropping like this, darn and I was just beginning to like the leisure time!" Kyle jokingly said, causing Sam to laugh lightly.

"Ha, if this is leisure I'd hate to see what the opposite is. Come on, lets get you taken care of." Sam said, placing a arm around Kyle's shoulder as the two of them walked out of the room, the sound of heavy snow growing softer and softer as they walked off down the hallway.

So I had to take down the chapter I originally had because I felt it wasn't good enough! But here is a updated version that I feel is a lot better! Please review!
