"Saaaaaaaaaaaaaam! Freddieeeeeeeeeee!" Carly Shay ran down the halls of Ridgeway High, ignoring the shouts of teachers to stop running. She finally got to the lockers owned by Samantha Puckett and Freddie Benson.
"Hey Carls," Sam greeted her best friend. "What up?"
"Guys, you'll never believe what just happened!"
"What happened?" They asked anxiously.
"I was walking to the Groovy Smoothie last night to pick up a Strawberry Splat for Spencer, when some random lady gave me three tickets for a year long school at sea!"
"Woah that's amazing!"
"I know! Are ya'll in?"
"Yeah we are!" Sam and Freddie exclaimed.
This was the best news ever! They were all going to spend a year on the sea, traveling the world and seeing new places, meeting new people, and having the time of their lives! This was the ultimate experience.
(Two weeks later)
Carly, Sam, and Freddie were at the docks where their boat, the S.S Cosgrove was about to leave. They were still outside saying goodbye to Spencer, Mrs. Benson, and Ms. Puckett.
Ms. Benson was crying her eyes out as Freddie told her that he was going to be okay and that they could still email each other as often as possible. Freddie knew his mama was going to miss him but he had to grow up and leave sometime so why not now? After all, they were seniors in high school, they were going to be leaving soon anyway.
Ms. Puckett was tearing up too. Sam didn't think that her mother was going to cry. After all, Ms. Puckett had never really been the best parent. She was always off at the bar or with a guy or something. Never really had time for Sam. But here she was crying her eyes out and Sam actually felt bad for her mom. She really was going to miss her mama after all.
Spencer on the other hand was completely cool. He had been the one to convince Ms. Benson to let Freddie go. Without Spencer, they would have been minus a Freddie on this trip.
So, at last it was time to get on board. They climbed up the ramp and on to the ship. Outside, they saw their relatives waving their finally goodbyes. Carly could have swore than she saw a tear on Spencer's face, even though he promised not to cry.
They turned and went on the ship.
As it pulled out of the harbor, they all were thinking different thoughts. Sam was thinking about what was for dinner on the ship, Carly was thinking about the people she was going to meet on the trip, and Freddie was thinking about what new tech stuff he was going to see on the trip. But no matter what they were thinking, they knew that they were in for a big adventure.
The S.S Cosgrove had set sail...
