Here's another story for one of the most amazing couples ever, Seddie! It's like 3 chapters or something long... so yeah.
This is in Sam's POV. :)
iStood By You
Chapter 1
I'm kind of... depressed. Most of the school hates me, Carly is mad at me, Ms. Briggs had caught me while I was trying to hide a monkey inside her car, and spending time with Freddie was awkward after the talk we'd had at Groovy Smoothies.
Maybe we should start at the beginning.
It all started when I met Reuben, Gibby's little annoying crazy-talking friend. I'm sure you heard of the triple date I went with Carly, Freddie, Reuben, Shannon, and Gibby. Well Reuben had a 'little' crush on me, and I wasn't exactly happy about that. I mean, who could understand the kid?
So when we all went to the Cheesecake Warehouse, we all ran away after Gibby started dancing with his shirt off. Total awkwardness. Especially when that weird girl started dancing with him.
Then the next day I got an email from Reuben. I expected it to be full of words that were meant to insult me, but I was wrong. Instead, he'd written a long email explaining Reubenese! He'd translated like 15 different sayings into plain English. Like that would help me.
The day after that at school he asked me out.
"Hey Sam!" He had yelled across the hallway. I had looked around, making sure that no one had heard that crazy kid and marched up to him, slamming him against the lockers.
"What do you want?!" I hissed.
"You wanna go ride pigs across the desert?" He asked.
I had looked at him like he was speaking German, except he was really speaking Reubenese. I knew he was trying to ask me out on another date, but I had hoped that pretending to not understand him might work. Unfortunately, it didn't.
He skipped away, yes, skipped, with a big grin on his face. He'd obviously interpreted my blank stare as 'yes.'
So when we went to the Cheesecake Warehouse, alone (Carls and Fredward wouldn't go with me), I set him straight.
"Reuben... I don't know how to tell you this but..."
"You love me?!" Reuben yelled.
I yanked him down into his chair again. People were staring. "No! I don't like you okay? I never liked you! You embarrass me, you talk weirdly, and not once could I understand what you were saying!"
Reuben stared at me for a second, then burst into tears. "I never thought I'd say this... but... I hate you Samantha Meredith Puckett!" Then he fled from the restaurant and left me sitting there wondering how he knew my middle name.
When I got back to school on Monday, everyone was glaring at me. And I meant everyone. The teachers seemed to be looking at me evilly too. So when I got to my locker, I asked Carly what was up.
"What's up?" Carly asked me sarcastically. "You tell me!"
"What do you mean? What are you talking about?" I asked, confused.
"I can't believe that you would say something like that about me!" She slammed her locker closed and quickly walked away. Freddie came by afterward. It was better than nothing, so I asked,
"What's going on?"
"Uh... I don't know if it's a good idea to--" Freddie stuttered.
I grabbed him by the collar and faced him. "Tell me what's going on!"
"Before you got to school, Reuben told everyone something bad about them and then he told everyone that you said it."
"What?" I yelled. Some teachers passing by glared at me and I smiled sweetly at them. Then I looked at Freddie again. "Are you serious?"
"Yep. I guessing the 'date' didn't go well?"
"Wait, hold on a sec," I said, "Aren't you mad at me too?"
"Not really. I get insulted enough." Freddie said, shrugging. It was like it was no big deal to him. The bell rang so I had to go to class, but I couldn't help wondering why Freddie wasn't acting like a psycho maniac like everyone else.
"Carly!" I yelled, banging on the Shay's door. I was trying to get into their house but Carly had blocked the door with some giant thing so even if I picked the lock I couldn't get in. 'Let me in!"
A door behind me opened and Freddie stepped out, his face smeared with some kind of lotion. "What's going on?"
"What's going on with your face? Did your mom rub baby lotion all over it?" I taunted.
Freddie looked down, embarrassed. "Actually, yeah she did. Why are you banging on the door?"
"'Cause Carly won't let me in, that's why!" I said, returning to banging on the door.
"Wouldn't Spencer let you in?" Freddie asked.
"Normally, but Spencer went to Canada to buy more of that ham-bacon thing!" I answered.
"Why don't you just pick the lock?"
"I did! And it won't open because Carly put some kind of huge thing in front of it so I wouldn't be able to go in!"
Freddie stared at me, which somehow made me feel uncomfortable. Which was weird because usually I would just spit in his face or something and tell him to quit staring at me.
He kept staring at me, like he was examining my face. "Why are you staring at me?" I asked.
Freddie blinked and looked at the door. "Uh... I don't know."
"Well help me open this door!" I commanded. We both pounded on the door and yelled, "Carly! Open this door!"
A very angry Carly appeared on the other side of the door that had opened. "What?"
"Uh... well it's Friday and--"
"What's all over Freddie's face?" She asked. Then she looked at me and said, "Did you put a facial mask over his face?!"
"No!" I replied, offended that she would think that. "I would never do such a thing!" They both stared at me. "Fine, I would but I didn't do that to him. Not this time."
"My mom put baby lotion all over me." Freddie explained.
"Well then why are you both here?" Carly asked.
"It's Friday and it's time for iCarly." I said, hoping she would magically stop being mad at me and let me into her apartment. Didn't happen.
"Well Freddie can come in and do it with me." She said, pulling Freddie through the doorway. "You, though, have to go."
"Why? It's iCarly!" I said, trying to go in through the doorway. "We do it together!"
"I don't think the world wants to see a person like you who insulted everyone in the school on iCarly." She replied.
Then she shut the door in my face and left me standing there.
Soo... what'd you think of the first chapter? Was it okay? Review!
