Carly walked into the studio of their webshow. She gathered some of the materials they were going to use for tonight's show. As Carly was putting the things on the table, Freddy entered the room.
"Hey," he said.
"What's up?"
"I've got to tell you something. It's about…us."
Carly looked at Freddy oddly.
"us?"
He nodded. His cheeks flushed. He directed her over to somewhere private.
"This is kinda hard to tell you. I've liked you so long… I just," he paused, unsure of what to say.
"Spit it out," Carly instinctively replied. Freddy sighed. Then just about he was about to say something, Carly intervened.
"Look Freddy. You're a cool guy but I-"
"It's not about you and I. It's… me and Sam," he finished. She looked up.
"You and… Sam?" She said, trying to calculate the impossible couple.
"Ooooh, you hate me….," He said.
"Freddy! I don't hate you. You're my best friend. Because you and Sam are a couple, you think that I would like any less?" She asked.
"You don't hate me?" Freddy asked.
"No, of course not. Hug?"
"Sure."
Freddy and Carly leaned forward inviting each other into a hug.
"So, you guys are dating I take it?" Carly asked.
"Yup."
"Have you kissed Sam yet?" Freddy looked away awkwardly.
"Maybe…," he replied. Carly made a face that described her interest.
"Well have you or not?" She asked.
"Yeah…," he said coolly.
"Awesome," she said. Freddy smiled. She looked at him.
"Why do you care so much, Carly?" He asked.
"I don't!" She snapped. Freddy switched facial expressions.
"You don't?" he asked, taken aback.
"No! I do. It's just that I thought that you were throwing out the idea that I may have been… jealous of you and Sam," she quickly recovered.
"You are jealous aren't you?" He asked with a devious smile that had appeared on his face.
"Freddy Benson, I cannot talk to you!" She snapped as she stormed out of the room. Freddy followed taking a sharp right out to the fire escape. Sam raised her eyebrows.
"Wha'd she say?" She asked. Freddy sighed.
"She's actually jealous of us," Freddy replied; which must have been the wrong response as it had set Sam off.
"What did you say?! Was she upset?"
"No! All I said was that we were together and she kept questioning me so I asked her why she cared so much and then she got all defensive. Now she's jealous." Sam shook her head.
"You mean… she's gonna want a boyfriend?" Sam asked.
"Yup. She's gonna want me. And with you liking me and Carly trying to hook up with me… well, you know what that means."
"Yeah, a fight."
"No Sam. A catfight."
