why liam had agreed to mason’s request to go                     on quick outing for ice cream when he has train-                     ing with scott in half an hour and had an entire                     english essay due tomorrow the werewolf isn’t                     entirely sure. but what he does know is that his                     friend is chatting up some sophomore while                     eating his ice cream cone, leaving the blond to                     stand a bit awkwardly by himself, vanilla-cho-                     colate twist in hand.

                    that’s when he smells it drifting over the scent                     of fudge and mint chocolate chip --some sour                     combination of anxiety and pain and so many                     other things that get muddled up. and when a                     curious glance reveals the source to be a frail                     looking girl, he almost considers walking over                     and making conversation. but that’s scott’s job                     --always the hero-- not his.

                    but maybe he’s a little curious.

It’s in his nature to stop and check on people if they look like they need help. Even more now since the girl he spots looks to be about his age. He crouches down, making sure to give the girl space, just in case.
