iLove You Too
Disclaimer: iwish!
Summary: After the iOMG kiss so pretty big spoiler if you haven't watched. The song is Terrified by Katharine McPhee feat. Zachary Levi. This is the first version of two.
Version 1: Terrified Sam shifted her body into defensive mode instinctually. Arms folded, legs set apart, sarcastic barbs at the ready. She couldn't quite figure out why she had done that. Well, she knew why she had kissed him. Freddie was her friend; he was nice, funny, sincere, smart, and admittedly hot. Sam was in love with Freddie. But why did she do it here, now.
You, by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You're the thing that's right
Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side
Freddie didn't move an inch. He was dumbfounded, surprised, confused. Sam kissed him. The Pearpod was right; Sam was in love…with him. He could taste her on his lips still, guacamole. What was he supposed to do now, what should he say? I mean, he couldn't just keep standing here staring at her.
You set it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
"Look, that, I," Sam floundered. Expressing her feelings was really not something she did, ever. When had she turned into the stereotypical teenage girl without even noticing? This wasn't supposed to be her life. Sam liked boys; she wasn't supposed to like a boy, not really, not seriously. She most definitely couldn't put her heart on the line, anymore than she already had.
And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only life
"Let's just forget that happened, Freddork. I tripped or something, ok," Sam suggested, stepping forward to move past Freddie.
And this could be good
It's already better than that
And nothing's worse
Than knowing you're holding back
"No, Sam. I'm not okay with that," Freddie announced, putting a hand out to stop her from walking away. He was still staring at her but now he knew what to do. He loved her too. She was funny, independent, loyal, out spoken, smart despite all of her attempts to discredit that fact, beautiful, and admittedly a great kisser. He had liked her for a while now, a-little-over-a-year while. I mean that's part of the reason he had freaked out so much when he discovered her mood, he thought she was in love with Brad. Freddie was jealous.
I could be all that you need
If you let me try
He stepped back in front of her slowly, moving closer. Freddie reached his hand out and gently, reverently tucked her hair behind her ear before leaning in and kissing her. They did it right this time, his arms winding around her back to hold her even closer and her hands on the back of his neck, in his hair.

When they finally stumbled back out of the heated kiss, Sam asked, "What about Carly?"
She hated the way it sounded, genuinely hated it. As if she was some insecure, dramatic teenage girl that hinged all of her happiness on a boy. Sam Puckett is not that.
And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time
In my only
"What about her?" Freddie replied, confused again.
Sam just wished she could shut up. "I thought, I mean, don't you love Carly?" It just kept getting worse and worse.
Freddie was perfect though, confident, articulate, and in-control. The role reversal was welcome. "Sam, I'm in love with you, God help me. I haven't liked Carly that way for a long time now."
I only said it 'cause I mean it
I only mean 'cause it's true
So don't you doubt what I've been dreaming
'Cause it fills me up and holds me close whenever I'm without you
Sam nodded, looking at the ground for a moment so he doesn't see the small, ridiculous, so-not-Sam-Puckett smile. Then she stepped back into his space and asked in her usual tone, "So, what now?"
"We could always kiss, again," Freddie suggested with a cheeky grin.

"Good plan," Sam agreed before pulling back just as their lips are about to touch, "You know this doesn't mean I'm going to stop mocking you or hitting you or stealing your stuff or pranking you?"
"You'll still be Sam. I know that," Freddie said.
And I'm in love
And I'm terrified
For the first time and the last time

Inside, hiding at the window, Carly finally walked away, still stunned. It was obviously a personal moment; she just wanted to make sure they worked it out.
"Sam and Freddie. Freddie and Sam," Carly whispered to herself. She liked the way it sounded.
To Anyone Who Cares: iOMG was good! I just wish it were longer. I was totally rooting for Seddie. They remind me of Dan and Blair on Gossip Girl, both shows even cliffhangered us the same way. Anyway I just couldn't help but write something. I hope you like it! Please review. I'm going to write an alternate version to this. Another happy ending but I just had another idea for it so…
