Freddie POV
"Till all my sleeves are stained red, from all the truth I said." I sang, as I sat at the piano. I wrote the notes and lyrics down on the paper.
"Freddiebear! Stop playing your piano and get over here! I made tofu casserole!" My mom yelled. Not tofu casserole again! Yuck! Sam would probably puke at the thought of tofu. I chuckled to myself as I closed my song-writing notebook.
"What's so funny?" My mother asked, setting the white and green goop-filled pan on the table.
"Nothing, just a little thought." I said, as I hesitantly sat down at the table, awaiting the not-so-delicious-but-probably-still-healthy slop that my mom made tonight. My mom's phone suddenly buzzed. I slightly overheard her conversation. Hey, I'm not eavesdropping! Just overhearing!
"Hello?"
"...I was just about to have dinner with my son."
"...I suppose."
"...You're welcome, see you in a few minutes."
She hung up the phone.
"Honey, something came up at work, they need an overnight shift, will you be okay here until I come back?" My mom asked. God must've answered my prayers! Who knows what would've happened to my stomach if I had choke down my mothers 'casserole'.
"I'll be fine, hey I have an idea! How 'bout you bring your casserole to eat tonight!" I recommended.
"Don't you want any?" She asked, oh crud, I had to think of an excuse!
"Uh, I'm sure you need it more than I do!" I said, please let her buy it!
"Oh fine! Oh I better go! I love you, see you tomorrow morning!" My mom said, and gave me a kiss on my forehead, leaving a bright red lipstick mark, grabbed the casserole, and left.
"Finally peace and quiet." I mumbled as she left, while wiping the red lipstick from my forehead and heading to my second home, the Shay residence. I opened the door to see Carly painting her toe and fingernails, Sam eating a bucket of fried chicken while watching Girly Cow, and Spencer holding some cheese in one hand and a paintbrush in the other. Yep, typical day.
"Hey." I said while entering the apartment and plopping on the couch in between Sam and Carly.
"Hey Freddie."
"S'up Fredwich."
I sighed and got up to the computer to check on iCarly. I logged in and checked our last website ratings, wow, lowest it's ever been in a long time.
"Hey guys have you checked out the ratings for the last iCarly?" I asked concerned.
"No, why?" Carly asked, walking over to the computer monitor.
"Our last iCarly only got 156,073 views; it's the lowest it's been in a while."
I sighed.
"Well go search it and see why!" Carly commanded, obviously a little annoyed.
"Ok ok, geez." I mumbled, I searched "Why iCarly is getting less popular" into the search bar. A single result came up; "eTunes". I clicked it and it showed a brightly colored graffiti patterned website. Its layout was like iCarly's.
There were videos, blogs, songs, and pictures. It's even a live show like
iCarly! It is on at... Thursday at 8:00 pm through 9:00 pm! That's when iCarly is on!
"This is total chiz!" I almost yelled, pounding my fist on the countertop.
"Calm down Poundy! What's wrong?" Carly asked.
"Some new, jank, online webshow 'eTunes' is running out iCarly!" I said angrily.
"What?" Carly asked as she suddenly freaked out. Throwing the small bottle of bright pink nail polish aside and rushing over to the screen.
"See!" I said pointing to the screen.
"Click on one of the videos." Carly instructed. I did as she told and clicked
the first video I saw.
"This is another installment of Musical Madness!" A familiar red-head yelled
goofily as her apparent co-host pressed a button on a... red remote! Oh my god they're ripping of Sam's blue remote!
"This is horrible! Not only are we losing our show! But were losing it to Missy and Valerie!" Carly yelled. Missy and Valerie! I knew those girls looked familiar! How could they rip off iCarly! They are horrible people.
"Now, as always, on Musical Madness, we will randomly select one of Me, Val, or Jonah to sing a self-composed song and play it on an instrument, this week-" I stopped the video.
"Jonah! Sam's cheating ex! This couldn't get worse." Carly said, tugging at her hair.
"They're gonna steal all of our viewers!" I pouted.
"Wait, no they're not." Carly said, with that I-have-an-idea look on her face.
"How?" I asked.
"We can do what they are doing! One of us or all of us can sing on iCarly, and we can have a musical guest! It'll really reel in the viewers!" Carly exclaimed excitedly.
"Uh. I'm not sure." I said nervously, I can't let the girls know I write songs! Who knows what kind of insults Sam will throw my way!
"What do you think Sam?" Carly asked, ignoring my hints of Denial. There was
silence.
"Sam?" Still silence.
"Sam will ya stop making out with your fried chicken and listen to us?" I
finally chimed in. Sam jumped and looked at me and Carly with a chicken breading covered face.
"What?" Sam yelled.
"To make a very long story short, our enemies made a webshow that's draining our viewers." I said. Sam just stared and dropped her chicken, wow she really must be concerned.
"Chiz! How will we get our viewers back?" Sam asked, jumping up from the couch and heading over to the computer.
"He need to incorporate music into our webshow, ya know, one of us sings, we
have a musical guest. That kinda stuff." Carly explained.
"Well, pretty much the only one with any possible musical talent is Carly." Sam said, gesturing to Carly.
"Hey! I might have musical talent too!" I yelled defensively.
"Yeah sure!" Sam said sarcastically.
"Wanna bet?" I ask, getting up and facing her.
"Don't bet." Carly begged. Me and Sam ignored her.
"Ok! If I win, which I will, you have to buy me a two week supply of meat!" Sam said.
"And if I win, you can't insult me for two weeks." I challenged.
"Ok, the bet is, whoever sings the best, wins, and we do it live on iCarly!" Sam said.
"Guys, this isn't the best idea." Carly said, but me and Sam already shook on
it.
