This is after the iCarly episode iSpeed Date when Carly and Freddie are dancing at the "Groovy Smoothie". I decided to write about what, I think, was going thought their heads at the time.

Carly's POV
After Carly kicked the weird kid out…
"And then there were two" Freddie said to me. It made my heart seem to skip a beat.
"Yep. Just us. Thank god. Wasn't a very fun dance was it? " I asked him.
"Nope" he answered as he focused on putting the lid on his cup.
Then he stood up and shuffled his feet nervously. I knew that look but still I asked him "What?"
"Don't you think we both deserve one nice dance tonight with a person we don't want to kill?" he asked me in a shy voice.
"Absolutely" I automatically responded while getting out of my seat. "Hey T-boe, turn up the music?" he asked the man behind the counter who nodded in response and picked up the remote to turn it up.
Freddie walked back to me and I put my arms around his neck and he put his hands on the small of my back. I never noticed, before that moment, how beautiful his eyes were. I kept wondering what might be going through his head as we rocked back and forth. He adjusted his hands so he could hold me closer. Now that we were close enough I rested my head on his shoulder. This is really nice… maybe I should have asked him to the dance… I told myself. Then I started worrying about what every girl who gets to dance with a guy as nice a Freddie: is my hair still nice? OHMYGOD! What if my breath smells? Will he kiss me? Should I try and kiss him? Would he kiss back? Stop worrying it's just you and Freddie. I took a deep breath to settle myself. It worked and soon we were just together, dancing. My mind kept racing but this time quieter. This is nice…. I realized I was holding my breath and let it out.
I could've sworn I heard the door open but when I looked up the door was closed and it was just us… and T-boe. This would surely be a night I would remember.
Freddie's POV
After Carly kicked the weird kid out
"And then there were two" I said. Anything to get her to laugh.
She giggled then said "Yep. Just us. Thank God. Wasn't a very fun dance was it?"
"Nope" I said in reply. The butterflies in my stomach getting worse by the second. To calm myself down, I busied myself with the lid on my cup.
Then I stood up and shuffled around nervously. "Don't you think we both deserve a dance with a person we don't want to kill?" my voice came out barely over a whisper.
"Absolutely" she responded practically before the words were out of my mouth. My courage all gathered up and I asked T-boe to turn up the music.
She smiled as she put her arms around my neck and I placed my hands on the small of her back. This beautiful girl that I have loved since we were little kids was dancing with me! Then she rested her head on my shoulder. I wondered what Carly could be thinking as we rocked back and forth on this spot. Weird thoughts came into my head: Are my hands sweaty? Can she feel it? Should I try and kiss her? What happens after this? Wait its just a dance Freddie, calm down. What if she thinks it's more... Then I calmed down and it was just us, together. I hoped she wasn't just leading me on. When she lifted her head to look at the door, I was afraid she'd pull away but she did'nt and soon relaxed into me. As I walked her into her apartment that night. She took a step closer to me and gave me a small peck on the cheek. Then I pulled her in closer and we had kissed. It was better than in all my dreams...
