Ice cream makes everyone scream

"Chocolate in a cup please?" I watched as Kim jumped up and down as the chocolate ice cream came closer to her. I got mine and we took a seat with Jerry and Grace who were already halfway done. I finished quickly but it looked as if Kim was savoring ever second as if it was her last. I laughed as she closed her eyes and savored her chocolate. We stood up and walked to the car, Kim still eating her ice cream.

We hoped in and I pulled out the ice cream parking lot. The car was filled with joy as I drove. I felt a hand approaching my face and felt cold ice hit my face. It went across my cheeks and dotted my nose. Kim pulled it back and ate from the spoon. Kim laughed and grabbed a napkin.

"I got it" She assured and whipped the chocolate from my face. She giggled and put the chocolate napkin down.

"Can I at least have some?" I begged. She sighed and took a small spoonful and put it on my lips. I ate it and looked over as Kim slowly pulled the spoon away. She took another spoonful and stuck into her mouth carefully not breaking eye contact with me. My eyes flickered back from her to the road. She licks the spoon and stuck it in her mouth. She pulled it out with a pop and it was chocolate less. She laughed and put the empty ice cream cup down. She licked her lips and leaned back. I smiled at her and she relaxed in her chair.

That's when everything slowed. There were flashing lights in the night time sky and my name was screamed from every corner of the car. I lost control of the wheel and looked around. Jerry held Grace close to him, protecting her. I looked at Kim and saw her staring at me. Her eyes turned many colors and I did the only thing I knew too. I pulled myself out of my seatbelt and jumped to Kim.

I felt my claws latch into the seat and may bones cracks and I held a steady position. Kim's eyes were fixed on me and I held her head with mine so we never lost eye contact.

SMASH

I felt the air bag hit my back but it doesn't affect me because… I'm a werewolf! I opened my eyes to see my side of the car smashed. Kim's eye flicked opened and she just stared at me. Her eyes turned back to brown, instead of changing millions of colors, though this time they were a very light shade of brown. A tear slide down her cheek and I loosened my body. I felt myself change back to my normal self instead of half wolf. I had heavy breathing and looked at Kim to see her breathing normally, weird.

Her eyes stayed locked to mine and her mouth opened to talk. I sighed and felt her nose touch mine. I leaned in and connected our lips. She kissed back and her hands roamed my body. I heard a click and a cool wind hit my face. Kim pulled away and slipped from my grip as if nothing happened. She opened the back door and pulled Grace, who was cover in blood, out and I pulled Jerry from his weird position.

"Grace?" Kim said. Grace grabbed Kim and pulled her close. She pulled away and pointed at me. I held Jerry and felt a tear slide down my cheek as I held my bleeding friend.

"He saved me" She said. "He pushed me to the other side of the car." She ran to his side and brushed his hair out of his face. "I love him" She looked at me then at Kim. Kim sighed and called the ambulance, mutant ambulance. They came right away and check us. They took Jerry away and brought Me, Grace, and Kim back to the campus.

Grace wouldn't stop shaking and Kim had to hug her. I tried to talk to Kim but I just couldn't with Jerry in my head.

The next morning we went into the infirmary and turns out Jerry's in a coma. Grace broke down.

"I never got to tell him I loved him" She cried into Kim. Kim looked at me and I sighed.

"It will be okay, he's tough." Kim whispered. I gave her a weak smile and she grabbed my hand and Grace's. She walked us to the room and ushered Grace to go first. She stepped into the room and ran to his bed side. Kim slide in with me and sat in the couch next to him. You could see his face but he had a huge wrap around his chest. Grace lay down next to him and cried into his shoulder. I looked at Kim and saw tears break her eyes. She saw me looking and blinked them away. "Best relationship she's ever had and this happens." She whispered to me. I nod and turn to see Grace intertwining their fingers.

We decided to go to bed after staying there for a while, well me and Kim, Grace decided to stay overnight.

"Why'd you protect me?" Kim asked, suddenly. Her hand reached out and hit the elevator button in the girls' dorm. Her eyes stayed to the light that blinked when it was on this floor. My eyes searched her body for some kind of emotion.

"What?" I asked as it dinged. She stepped in and pushed the button for her floor. I stepped in after her, standing beside her as she watched the door close.

"Why'd you protect me?" She said as if it was nothing.

"Because I had to!" I answered not knowing how to say it without sounding like a complete fool.

"Why didn't you protect Jerry?" I shook my head and sighed.

"I wasn't going to let that air bag hit you. You're small enough to get very injured. I would have so much guilty if I let that happen." She blinked and I put my hand softly on her delicate shoulder. "It's not your fault. I choose to protect you. I had to. Jerry's going to fine."

"That's what you don't understand." Kim said in a hushed tone, probably because of my rising voice. She turned to me and stayed with an emotionless face. She let out a mumble and looked at her feet.

"What?" I said in her ear, leaning closer to her. I put my hand on her cheek and made her look me in the eyes.

"It's immortality, my darling." (Whoever knows what that from, I LOVE YOU!) She pulled away and crossed her arms. "I don't die and you protect me from nothing!"

"Wait what?" I was confused. How could she not die she's- OHH!

"I only die if a god damn stake goes through my heart! You could have saved Jerry!" The elevator dinged and she stomped out.

"Kim, I couldn't put logic into it at the last second! All I knew is, I had to protect you!" I yelled. She turned and stomped her foot.

"WHY?! Because I was your best friend since grade school! I was terrible to you but you choose to protect me instead!" She yelled before she sped away. I sighed and turned to see Kelsey smirking from a different hallway.

"I understand, but really? How did you not know she was immortal?" She walked to the hallway Kim ran down and turned to me. "Some tips about Kim, Jack, the more she trust you the scared she gets for you. You have to be the person that tells her you will always be there for her. Why do you think she dates then dumps?" I shrugged and she laughed. "She doesn't want anyone else to trust her. She wants them to hate her so she doesn't have to go through death." She smiled and turned. "Good luck!" She waved speeding down the hall.

Her words ran through my head as I walked back to my empty room. I went to put my card in the door when I notice the whiteboard. I gave a weak smile to the 'Nice try, Jackson' but there was something under it in a different bright color and neat letters. 'Don't let her go.' I looked around and didn't see anyone in the halls. I pushed the door open and climbed in. I sighed as I saw Jerry's messy bed. I lie down and fell asleep.
