A/N: Hey, here is a story for Sam and Cat. The idea popped into my mind and I wanted to use it before anyone else did. I'm sorry this chapter is short (It's kind of like an intro) and I might be slow at updating since I have quite a busy few weeks coming up, and I am also working on iSurvive The Year which is my main priority.
After five years of Sam and Cat owning a baby-sitting business, not much had changed. Cat's 'Nona' was still a resident at Elderly Acres, Sam and Cat still had the great dynamic relationship. Cat was still in education. Robbie has stayed on at Hollywood Arts extended education, so, so did Cat. The two were not in a relationship yet, but even Sam could tell it was very close to that. Sam had learned that Carly had a long-time boyfriend, Carlo, that she was 'deeply in love' with. Sam was not in touch with Carly anymore, and she regretted it greatly. It was not Sam's fault, or Carly's fault, it was both if theirs. They had at first e-mailed, texted and called every day, but that slowly died down until Sam didn't receive a call for 6 months, and that's when she knew they were no longer friends. She had tried to text, but with no reply. Sam also missed Freddie, but didn't keep in touch. She had the impression that Freddie hated her after the break-up and didn't want to make it more awkward. Sam was still at 'online school' but didn't really bother on getting an education because she had decided to commit her life to babysitting. She had met no boys since she moved in with Cat. She was kind of missing the attention, but didn't complain. She had enough to cope with, including the children when babysitting and Cat being Cat.
Cat Valentine poked Sam Puckett's stomach, who was asleep. "Hi!" She giggled. Unexpectedly, Sam pulled her to the floor and tackled her. Cat was squashed under Sam's weight, with her arms held above her head. This was the first step of morning routine for the girls.
"How many times have I told you not to do that?" Sam asked sleepily. She was still annoyed about being woke up at 7 O'Clock every morning, yet there was no use telling Sam off because it happened every morning.
"Well, you've been living here 5 years… so…" Cat tried to calculate the amount of days in her head. "Lots of times."
"You really need to stop." Sam said, as she did every morning. Sam had grown so fond of Cat due to the fact that it reminded her of the relationship she used to have with her friends. Carly and she used to banter even though they loved each other like sisters, and Carly would care for Sam like a mother. Freddie and she used to argue, but it always turned out right. Just like Sam and Cat.
"Okay. I won't do it tomorrow." Cat said with a smile.
"You say that every day." Sam smirked, used to Sam by now.
"What day is it?" Cat asked.
"Sunday."
"Oh, I need to go to church with Robbie." Cat smiled. "What should I wear?"
"Pink." Sam replied. She knew Cat didn't like it if she suggested any other colour.
"That's a great idea!" Cat smiled gratefully.
"Go get changed, kid."
"Okay."
Sam spent the morning checking out her and Cat's bank account, which the babysitting money went it. She watched re-runs of That's a Drag (Yes, even five years later) and then just lounged around until Cat was due back. Once Cat was back from church, she and Sam went for a free meal at inside-out burger. "What do you want to do now?" Sam asked. Their weekends were usually free since most parents were off work and wanted to spend time with their child. This was really the only time that Sam and Cat got to relax.
"I want to decorate the outside of our house pink." Cat thought.
"No."
"Fine. Maybe we should get makeovers?"
"No."
"Oh, I know! Let's have a sleepover!"
"Sam, we live in the same house."
"Why don't we go bowling?"
"Okay." Sam agreed. "It's right across the street."
Sam led the way as Cat followed behind, commenting on how pretty the flowers were. "WAIT! Sam!"
"Yeah?"
"There's no crossing guard!"
"So?"
"How do we cross safely?"
"We look both ways and then cross."
"Will you help me cross the road?"
"Okay." Sam walked onto the road and placed both hands by her side and raised them up. Cat smiled and happily crossed the road. Confused and angry drivers beeped and roared their engines. Sam threatened them with her fist and then ran across the road to catch up with Cat.
Sam and Cat's business was at its peak, with fun, loving children at their doorstep most days, all with different personalities. Something was about to change, though. Sam's daily life would be shook by a new child to babysit, and as she found out more about the child, people from the past will return, and secrets will be found.
