-iTake a Holiday-
Chapter 1-iAm Not Sharing a Room With THAT
"There's no way in a million years you're getting me alone in a room with Freddork," Samantha Puckett said with a fierce hiss.
Freddie Benson was a complete nerd and was in the 'AV Club' which made him an even bigger geek. Samantha Puckett was his nemesis, blonde curly hair always pulled into a half up and half down style. She loved picking on him and making his life miserable with as much physical and mental abuse that was humanly possible. Carly Shay was their best friend and pretty much the only thing the two people had in common, that is, why they hung out together in the first place. Although it hadn't always been like that, they knew each other before the perky brunette girl showed up. The first time Sam met Freddie was when they were five.
Start of Flashback...
"Hey I'm Freddie," the shy boy said, walking up to the girl. "Can I play in the sandbox too?"
"I'm Samantha, but others call me Sam-it's better..." the blonde girl said as she smiled. "Of course you can play here!"
They played together, their mothers had always been close friends and they both sent their children to the same kindergarten and then primary school-which is when Sam met Carly in the third grade.
"Hi," the blonde girl said walking up to this new girl. "Give me your lunch!" she pushed the girl out of her seat. Expecting the girl to stay on the ground and start to cry, Sam sat down on the bench. Before she could take a bite out of the sandwich, she felt herself fall to the hard floor.
"Get your own lunch!" the brunette said, snatching the sandwich out of Sam's hands.
"You know, I like your style, what's your name?" Sam said, standing up and brushing her clothes off.
"Carly Shay," the brunette said to the blonde who had taken a seat next to her.
"Mine's Sam Puckett," the blonde girl said smiling as Carly handed her half her sandwich as a peace offering which she took gratefully and ate it.
It all changed when Freddie met the brunette too. Sam Puckett went from liking him, since they had always been best of friends to almost hating the boy. Call it jealousy, but Sam couldn't or didn't realise what she was feeling at that moment.
"Hello Sam," he said to his best friend and then looked over at the pretty brunette girl seated next to her. She gave him a brilliantly perfect smile and waved.
"Hi, you must be Freddie Benson," Carly said still smiling at the gob-smacked boy standing in front of her and Sam.
"Yeah," he said dreamily.
"Well I'm Carly Shay," the girl said wondering why Freddie was looking all zoned out or whatever.
"Carly," he repeated as if he was put under a spell. He felt like his heart wouldn't stop pounding and his head went all fuzzy so he couldn't think of anything but the perfect girl right in front of him.
Samantha noticed this and decided to get up, walk over to her friend and slap his face to wake him up.
"Ow, what was that for?" Freddie said, looking deeply hurt and rubbing his cheek that was red from Sam's slap.
"To snap you out of whatever you were thinking about," Sam said but not smiling.
"She's so pretty, perfect in every way and her smile is like the sun," Freddie said, ignoring Sam.
This earned him another slap on the other cheek and Sam stormed away leaving Freddie stunned and still love struck. I thought he loved me? Sam couldn't help but wonder to herself. He was my best friend before she came along.
End of flashback...
"Carly," Freddie said. "I am not sharing the same room with THAT!"
"That? I'm a girl Frednerd, in case you haven't already noticed!" Sam retorted, deeply hurt.
"Oh yeah," Freddie said, sarcastically. "Since when have you been a girl, Puckett?"
"Since when have you been a boy?" Sam hissed back. "Wait, that's right, you've never been one!"
"Well, at least I have a heart," Freddie said, taking a step towards the blonde.
"Freddie," Carly warned him.
"At least I have a dad who cares for me," Sam snaps, going into very dangerous territory.
"Sam, please," Carly begs for her to stop before going any further.
"At least I have the ability to love people," Freddie said, getting louder by now.
Samantha Puckett never cried, not even when she scraped her knee after falling off her bike because of lost balance. She didn't even cry when her mother left her dad because she found a boyfriend. But one little remark from whom she thought had always been her best friend sent her off the edge. Tears welled up, stinging her eyes but Sam blinked furiously to get them away.
"Maybe I do love someone," Sam said, under her breath. "Maybe I do care deeply for someone who will never love me back. You know what? I think you've proved that point."
"Sam," Carly said, taking a step towards the girl but Sam had already started running out of the apartment and slammed the door behind her. "Freddie, you are so mean!"
"Well I didn't mean it," Freddie said, looking down now.
"You go right now and apologise to Sam for saying that," Carly said angrily now placing her hands on her hips.
"Fine," Freddie said sighing. "I was going to go anyway... didn't have to tell me what to do..."
