Hey webbers! DorkLover here! That'll just be my nickname 'cuz I can't figure out how to shorten my username, WhyDoIStillLoveThisDork?. If you have ideas, pm me. Anyways, this story just came to me when I thought about how I had messed up with my crush. The name inspired by Knots in my Yo-Yo String by Jerry Spinelli. Awsums! So anyway, I'll stop rambling so you can read.
Disclaimer: I thought I owned iCarly, but when I tried to take Jennette home, she called the police..........so..............yeah.......................
Knots in my Shoe String
"Don't forget to tie your shoes!" Mom frantically yelled as I was leaving for yet another iCarly episode. Sure enough, my left shoe was untied. I knelt down to tie it, but found a knot in the string. As I untangled the mess, I recalled the knot I'd gotten myself into.
Okay, don't freak out! I like Sam. No. I love Sam. Her green eyes are like shining emeralds. Her blonde hair cascades down to her waist like a waterfall. The smirk always placed on her lips when she's insulting me is my favorite thing about her. So why didn't I just tell her? 'Cuz I'm stupid, that's why! I never really think these things through. It's just...well...........she's...........she's Sam, for Pete's sake! If I told her how I really felt, I would face an eternity of her stupid, yet adorable, insults.
When did I start to like her? You might think after the kiss, but you're wrong. When 'Melanie' came to town, I asked her on a date, knowing she was Sam. Surprisingly, she agreed to the date. During this date with mythical Melanie, she kissed me. It brought back strong memories of the vulnerable scene on the fire escape. While the date was going on, that kiss wasn't such a big deal. However, later on, it was.
It started to click after I had headed back to my apartment, victoriously proving Sam wrong of Melanie. My thoughts were set deep on the kiss. Not exactly like on the fire escape, but pretty close. That was when my brain malfunctioned. 'You love Sam,' it would say. For about an hour and a half, I banged my head on a table, finally ridding my brain of Sam.
Add another knot for the time I lost control of my actions.
Carly and Sam were watching Girly Cow while I was updating iCarly's latest poll. I looked over at Sam. Her laugh was what did it. The sweet sound of her laugh drove me towards her. I grabbed her shoulders, pressed her against the wall, and, just when I was about to kiss her, I regained control of my body.
"What was..............?"
But I didn't hear the rest. I was already hiding under my covers in my bed.
And nobody could forget 'The Slip Up'.
It was a regular day at school. I was talking to Carly about the latest experiment we were working on in A/V club. Sam strolled up to us.
"Hey Carly. Dork."
Mindlessly, I blurted out, "Hey cutie......."
"What?!"
I hid in the bathroom for the rest of the period.
I wasn't exactly happy with myself.
I decided I would tell Sam right then and there. I marched over to Carly's house and opened my mouth, but nothing came out.
"Whatever you're going to say, no one cares!"
And with that, Sam walked straight out the door.
"You were gonna tell her," Carly more said than asked.
"Yep."
So, how'd ya like it? Hopefully, it was good. Wrote this late at night with a headache, so I think I did pretty well. The blurting part was from iBlurt. Check it out. It's awsum! Anyways, R&R. Please no flames!
