Chapter 1 – Distance

Wind blew through Samantha Puckett's hair, an everlasting breeze that reminded her of something she once had but lost during her adventures as a young teenager. Currently she was waiting outside of the Washington State Prison for someone who had decided to bail her out. Possibly some fan of mine when I was in ICarly. Soon enough as she thought so, a black car with tinted windows pulled up and into the parking lot of the prison.

"Well Puffy, it was nice knowing you, but my ride's here," Sam waved goodbye to an old Jailbird she had become friends with overtime. Standing at the fence were some other male friends that she had made and they also waved goodbye.

"You are one lucky girl Sam Puckett," Robert Fuarez screamed from beyond a fence that separated the prisoners from the 'outsiders'.

Soon enough Carly Shay exited out of the dark vehicle and Sam gave her a wide and toothy grin. "It would be just like you to come bail me out, Shay."

"Well I guess so, Sam," Carly hugged her old best friend and they both laughed a bit. It truly had been so long since Sam had seen Carly, Spencer, and Gibby. Not to mention, Freddie, the love of her life before she was sent to prison.

"So, it's been like four years since I've last had a decent burger… let's go find one," the same old Sam Puckett was once again reunited with Carly, the last time they had seen each other, Sam had just turned nineteen the week before she was sent to this hell hole in the first place.

Nodding in agreement Carly and Sam left the prison and made their way to a burger joint where Sam greedily made her way through each and every dish that she could. On the way back home to the Shay apartment, Sam had happily taken into consideration that she would be seeing Spencer again, an old friend that somehow always helped her through times of hardship.

Once of course, they got up to the apartment Sam had completely forgotten about Freddie. Carly slowly turned the brass knob and when she opened the door, there was Spencer working on another sculpture, like he always would. On the couch though, sat a mysterious man, someone with matted down brown hair who looked admiringly handsome. He had caught Sam's eye, in a way where, she would want him for her own.

"Hey guys sorry that took me so long," Carly sat next to this mysterious man and gave him a small kiss on the lips. Soon enough, as Sam slammed the door the mysterious guy and Carly both jumped in surprise.
"Now did you have to do that so loudl-" this guy was about to lecture Sam on his many ear problems but when he turned to see who it was his mouth remained hanging open and he just stared in shock, "Sam…" whispering in shock surely Sam had changed over the years.

"Sam you remember Freddie? I mean you have spent some distance apart," Carly continued to drone on but as Sam too stared in shock, something built up inside of her. Sadness drained through her body like a venomous liquid but then she just turned it around into an anger that hadn't been around for nearly years.

"I have to go."
"Sam, you just got back from prison," Carly tried to reason.

"I said, I have to go. Spencer give me a ride."
"Sorry I'm kind of working on a sculpt-" Spencer also tried to reason but it was too late.

"I SAID SPENCER, GIVE ME A RIDE HOME," Sam loudly stated until Spencer got the gist of what was going on. Before being able to say anything rather than sitting there in shock like he did, Freddie never got to say what was truly on his mind. That she was more beautiful than she used to be. Spencer had grabbed his keys and both him and Sam were sitting in the car as she started to break down into tears.

"I'm sorry Sam… I know, it's hard, but-"
"How long have they been together," she interrupted with her hands in her face. At times like this she wished that she never had to be so violent and show this person that wasn't completely her.

"Well you should understand that-"

"How long?" Sam cut Spencer off again.

"For three years… they're… engaged." Sam should have known… when he stopped writing to her, that he had found someone else, someone better than her, her best friend. After all he was in love with Carly for years, why not? But, she was in love with him, for even more.

"Just take me home, it's not that far of a distance."
