Summery: A song fic based on Blake Shelton's Austin. Sam leaves town for Texas leaving a slight broken hearted Freddie behind.
Disclaimer: As much as I would love to own iCarly alas I don't.
Notes: This and the ones that well most likely fallow are inspired by laying around reading Seddie fics while listening to country music. Hey in fact if any one else wants to do a few let me know so I can read them.
She left without leavin' a number
Said, she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Austin
'Cause she talked about it all the time
"I've had enough of this crap I'm leaving," Sam snaps glaring at the brown haired boy in front of her. They'd gotten back together and broken up three times since they'd first admitted they liked each other and she was getting tied. She loved him he loved her why was this so hard. It didn't help that their lives where hectic with his mother and hers mother. At least Sam's didn't really care about who she was dating or keept trying to find ways to break them up. This time Crazy would win since she'd taken paying for his college off the table bringing them to this fight one she'd caused.
"What do you mean your leaving?" he asks then his gravy brown eyes looking at her blue hurt and sad. She didn't want to really but she had to.
"I'm leaving town," Sam stands up she can't stay to see the hurt in his eyes. "I can't tell you where I'm not sure maybe Texas I have some family there and they owe me one." Before she can break or he can do any thing Sam leaves and run.
It was almost a year If you're callin' 'bout the car I sold it If it's anybody else, wait for the tone
Before she called him up
Three rings and an answering machine
Is what she got
If this is Tuesday night I'm bowling
If you've got somethin' to sell
You're wastin' your time, I'm not buyin'
You know what to do
And P S if this is Austin
I still love you
It had been a year since she left. A whole year but things where going great for her. She'd been going to community college while working in her Uncle's garage which she was very good at. But she still every now and then thought of Freddie and what he could be up to. She missed him even after she'd dated a few guys and even a girl once when she was board but they just weren't what she wanted.
She still talked to Carly being her BFF just about every day either though phone calls or text but she'd learn not to mention him after the first few times and she's shut down. It still hurt she didn't want to know what he was doing of if he moved on.
But now she was standing there staring at her phone and his number still programed into it. She could just call pretend to be a wrong number hear is voice or just talk to him. Her fingers where moving before she could and the phone was ringing three rings and it went to his voice mail. "Hey you've reached Freddie if you calling about the Pear Pad I sold it, if it's Tuesday night I'm at the movies, no I won't buy your used computer Brad." A pause, "if this is Sam I still love you."
The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
Her phone slips form her grasp hitting the floor ending the call. She just stares at him her heart aching. He still loved her no that couldn't be right why would he still love her after a year. It couldn't but true or real her mind making it up. What kind of man would hold on that long after the way she'd left him? What kind of love that must be to she wanted that kind of love needed it after what she'd seen with her own father then her mother's other relationships. She picked up her phone deciding she'd wait and try calling again.
She waited three days If it's Friday night I'm at the ballgame But I'll call you back when I get home
And then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say
But she heard three rings and then
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone, all weekend long
On Sunday afternoon
And P S if this is Austin
I still love you
She managed to wait three days before she called again holding her breath as she hears the phone ring. Three rings then the voice mail picks up. "Hey this is Freddie, if its Friday I'm at a game. First thing Saturday I'm studying and I'll be unavailable all weekend long. I'll call you back as soon as I can on Sunday after noon." A pause, "PS if this is Sam I still love you."
Well, this time she left her number If you're callin' 'bout my heart, it's still yours And by the way, boy
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evenin'
And this is what he heard
I should've listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long
To know where I belong
This is no machine you're talkin' to
Can't you tell, this is Austin
And I still love you
I still love you
This time she managed to hold on to her phone still a little in disbelief but some how she managed to leave her number before hanging up. She was smiling finding it hard not to be happy and to believe what she heard. He still loved her, the crazy violent girl that had made him miserable though most of his childhood and teen life. Who'd ran off on him afraid she was going to ruin his life. He loved her and she still loved him. She couldn't wait until Sunday.
Sunday night she sat staring at her phone waiting. Would he call? He said if she left her number he'd call. Her phone rang and she recognized the number and her stomach bottomed out and she got nervous but picked up on the third ring trying to sound like her voice mail. "If you're calling about my heart, it's still your. I shouldn't have listened to it and not let it get bullied, then it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where I belong. And by the way Freddie this isn't my voice mail you're talking to. Can't you tell, this is Sam and I still love you?"
