Freddie Benson, here. A lot of people know me from iCarly. And others well know me from my band, yeah, me, the dork, is in a band. I'm the lead singer, in a band called ForwardCan'tBeStopped. We've only performed in some cafes and small venues. Your probably wondering who I'm in the band with. Let me list them shall we? Chad Henning, the lead guitarist, Matthew Vincent the drummer, Monte Fitzroy the bassist, and Aiden Vang the keyboardist, those are the members of the band. We all met when we were about 5, but Chad and I were friends when we were in diapers. I didn't always live at Bushwell Plaza, you know. I lived in a nice neighborhood, where I met them, but then Chad moved to Minnesota, Monte went to France, Matt and Aiden moved from the neighborhood, and so did I. Couple of months ago, Chad moved back to Seattle, now he lives in the Bushwell Plaza, with his mom and older brother. Monte had come back as well, Matt and Aiden followed. Now, we go to Ridgeway together. Of course, Carly and Sam don't know! What? Did you expect them to know? If I did do you imagine the pure laughter they'll have, thinking I have another talent other than technical stuff. Yeah, they're that narrow minded. They don't take me seriously, so why would they take me seriously in this? I sighed, as I walked those two steps to Carly's apartment.
"Hola, ladies" I say, as walk in, my random Spanish coming out.
"Hey Freddie, where you been?" Carly asked.
"My mom is just trying to have me spend some more quality time together." I shrugged, lying I was hanging out with Monte, writing a new song.
"Ugh. Disgusting." Sam said, looking down at her cup she was holding.
"What?" I said, trying to see what was wrong.
"You." Sam smirked. I rolled my eyes, and went upstairs to work on my cameras and equipment. Sam, why Sam? Why does it have to be you? I sighed as I entered the iCarly studio. I picked up the camera I use for the web show. I recited the lyrics in my head that I just wrote with Monte. He composes, so he wrote the notes. He also helps with the lyrics. I started to hum, to my favorite song. 'Viola Lion' By Isles & Glaciers. Sam, oh my Sam, those beautiful crystal blue eyes, blonde curls, that body that would bring any man to his knees. Shocker number 2: I'm in love with Sam Puckett. Why? I don't know why, one night I feel asleep loving Carly, the next morning I woke up loving Sam. Weird, right? I don't know, life as a aspiring rock singer teenager is hard. I mean, with the song writing, band meetings, gigs, trying get a record deal, not to mention to keep it a secret from Carly and Sam. I mean, you have no idea how many comments I deleted of people begging for my band to perform on iCarly. The guys are asking too, they know about me keeping it secret but still its a big shot for us to perform on the web show. I sighed, and went on the iCarly website, updating it, changing the layout, etc., etc. Moving on, I went to my bands Splashface, then went on to our Spacebook. That's where the fans of both iCarly, and ForwardCan'tBeStoped reside.
"Hey Freddie," Carly entered. How do I know its Carly, first of all she called me Freddie.
"Hey." I smiled, putting down my camera and facing her. "What's up?"
"Are you...like...seeing someone?" Carly asked, playing with hair by twirling her finger in it.
"Uh...No. Why?" I asked, furrowing my eyebrows.
"Because...We, Sam and I, kinda saw you with a girl...At the mall..." Carly mumbled. Mall? Girl, me, mall...Oh! Skilar, my cousin.
"Oh, that was Skilar, my cousin. We were just hanging out." I laughed.
"Are you sure? You seem to be ignoring us or something..." Carly sighed.
"No, what made you think that?" I asked.
"Because you seem to...I don't know...not here anymore..." Carly looked at me, with pleading brown eyes for me to tell her what's up
"Sorry, I guess. I just...I had an old friend that just came back from Minnesota...And I decided to hang out with him...I didn't know you felt like that." I lied. And the lie continues. I frowned, the lie does continue because even the smallest lie can be stretched to the end of time.
"Oh, then why didn't we get to meet him?" Carly asked.
"Uhh, I don't know, he gets nervous..." I lied, I was hanging out with Chad, he is from Minnesota, he's just not shy...he always gets the girl.
"Oh...I'm sorry, is he still in town?" She asked.
"Uh...Yeah..." Why didn't I lie?
"Really? Can we meet him?" Her eyes went wide with happiness.
"I'm not so sure because Sam isn't..." "Oh come on, he can't be another you for Sam." Carly interrupted. I sighed, she had point, Chad is better looking than me, because of his emo style hair.
"I'll call him, he'll be here after rehearsal." I told her, I think my two different lives might be coming together as one.
"Do I look good?" Carly asked me, I turned around I saw her wearing a skirt that came a little past her mid-thigh, a black tanktop, a white jacket, and black boots.
"Why so fancy?" I asked, my feet up on their coffee table. She blushed, played with her zipper on her jacket.
"Uh...Just because...I felt like it." That's when the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Carly popped up from her spot on the couch and skipped to the door, and opened it.
"Hey, is Freddie here?" I heard Chad say, he has a really deep voice.
"Hey, I'm Carly." She smiled.
"Yeah, I know. Can I come in?" He asked.
"Sure!" She exclaimed.
"Hey Chad!" I stood up from the couch and hurried to the door. Aiden.
"Hey Aiden!" Chad said.
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"Gonna hang out with Freddie and his friends." Chad smiled.
"Shut the fuck up, dude" I say, when I see him. He laughs.
"Hey, can I come too? Pwease?" Aiden asks me.
"Ugh. Fine." Aiden, he's the keyboardist of the band, and he has long hair that's usually spiked but its not right now, so it reaches down to his shoulders.
"Who's that?" Carly asked.
"Aiden, another friend of mine." I replied.
"Wow, here I thought we were your only friends..." Sam laughed. I glared at her, when they stepped into the apartment. "Wait!" Oh dear god, who is that now?
"Hey Sky." Aiden said, when he looked.
"Hey its that girl!" Sam said, "You know, the one who doesn't throw up when she looks at Freddie."
"What about you?" I asked.
"I've gotten used to it, I'm immune!" Sam said. By that time, Carly had closed the door, Chad, Aiden, and Skilar were all in Carly's apartment.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked.
"You invited me, so I'm Ry-Ry beating free." Chad replied.
"I know that you idiot, I referring to tweedledee and teedledum over there!" I yelled.
"Us?" They say in unison. I stare at them. "Uhh...Well...You see...I just heard Chad, I got curious..." Aiden replied. I sighed, and looked over to Skilar.
"You don't need to know my business." Skilar answered, and of course. I looked over to Chad. He was staring at Skilar, with eyes of need. Allow me to explain, Chad and Skilar have loads of sexual tension. They both like each other, and every time they get close to dating, Chad gets scared or something, and ends up getting a girlfriend, and Skilar brushes it off but we all know it hurts inside. Then the cycle of Skilar and Chad starts all over again.
"Okaaayy...Who are all these people?" Carly asked.
(A/N: POV switch! (Carly))
"Okaaayy... Who are all these people?" I asked Freddie. He laughed nervously.
"I'm Chad." I heard the guy with a emo style hair, that covered his eyes sexily. His voice really deep, relaxing, and he seems very well toned.
"I'm Aiden." The other guy said. He had long hair, that came to his shoulders, and had bleach blonde tips. This guy was weird, he had guyliner, and eye shadow. What kind of guy where black eyeshadow? Anyway, his voice wasn't as deep as Chad's but he wasn't bad looking.
"I'm Skilar." The girl said. She had black makeup around her eyes. Her hair in layers, her lowest layer reaching down to her chest. She had piercings on her lip and eyebrow. A ring on her thumb, index, and middle finger. The rings were all colored silver. Her fingernails painted black, with a red tips.
"Cool. Nice to meet all of you, I'm Carly. This is my best friend Sam!" I said, excitedly.
"Are you gay?" Sam, Freddie groaned, and all of them had a face of confusion.
"Who?" Asked Skilar.
"You." Sam pointed to Aiden.
"No, Why? Is it the make-up?" He laughed.
"Yeah. I know that only gay's hang around Freddie." Sam said, shrugging eating up a piece of bacon.
"Wow. She's a keeper, Ry-Ry." Chad joked.
"Shut the fuck up, you ass." Freddie said. Wow, I never heard Freddie insult someone other than Sam. Isn't this so much fun!
"Who's Ry-Ry?" Sam asked.
"Freddie's nickname. It's better than Freddie." Skilar answered.
"Cool. Can we call you Ry-Ry?" I asked, excitedly.
"No!" Freddie said quickly, and loudly.
"Aw, Why not?" Sam asked.
"It's more like an inside thing..." Freddie said, quietly, rubbing his neck with his hand.
"Oh... Okay." I frowned. I felt like there was this Freddie we didn't know. Like, he had another life we didn't know. It was like a new, cooler Freddie hanging out with super hot guys.
"So, how long are you staying here in Seattle?" I asked Chad, sitting next to him in the couch.
"I moved here. I live on the seventh floor." He answered.
"Oh, I thought you were visiting." I laughed. He seemed so nice, so cool, and so hot! I think I might have a crush on him. I turned to look at Sam, and I smiled. She smiled back, and raised her thumb, in a thumbs up. "So, tell us about you guys."
"Uhh... Like what?" Aiden asked.
"Stuff you would say about yourself, like talents, where you lived, how you met Freddie..." I said, explaining the meaning of my question.
"Well, I lived in Seattle for all my life, just moved down the hall, met Freddie in our old neighborhood, and I play the piano." Aiden said, "Good enough answer?"
"Yup. Exactly!" I smiled. He smiled too, showing a row of perfect white straight teeth. "What about you guys?"
"Well, my parents are divorced my mom lives here in Seattle, seventh floor. My dad live in Crookston, Minnesota, I lived with him since I was 10, I play guitar, paino, and the harmonica." Chad said.
"Cool." Sam said, she thinks guys are super cool if they play guitar.
"Skilar? What about you?" I asked.
"Well... I just moved in with Ry-Ry and his mom, I lived in L.A. most of my life, I was actually born in Europe, stayed 'till I was 7 moved, and I play drums and guitar. I also compose songs." She replied.
"Wow. You were born in Europe? What country?" I asked, amazed.
"Spain." She replied.
"Cool." I said.
"So, how's our Freddie treating you guys?" Chad laughed.
"What do you mean?" Sam asked, finishing up her last piece of bacon. "He's dork. He treats us all dorky like." Chad laughed.
"You are badass!" Chad laughed at Freddie.
"And your an idiot." Freddie punched him in the arm. Chad's face contorted in pain, and grabbed his arm in hopes to make it better.
"What's with you guys? I swear I haven't met a pair of homosexuals like you." Skilar said, with a serious tone in her voice.
"Very funny." Freddie smiled, Skilar smiled back. Chad just stuck his tongue out at her, and she did the same to him.
"Guys! Check out my socks!" Spencer came in showing a pair of light-up socks he loved. "Aren't they awesome! Look at the little bear, isn't he cuuute? Oooh, and the bigger bear! Oh my god, who are they?" Spencer rambled 'till he came to notice three complete strangers in the living room.
"Their Freddie's friends." Sam said, the three waved at him.
"Chad, Aiden, and Skilar." I said, and they waved again in unison.
"Coolio, I'm Spencer, Carly's older bro." Spencer smiled.
"I'm Chad, the best friend." Chad said.
"Yeah, with benfits..." Aiden said. Freddie and Chad glared at him.
"You are soo dead when you get home." Chad said. Aiden threw head back and laughed.
"Dude, my home, Freddie's home, Monte's house, and Matt's house are your different homes. Your never at your own." Aiden said.
"I can't stand my mom's boyfriend! He's all, 'I can't replace your father, but I can be a great friend,' or 'Hey C, do you want to play some ball?' or 'C, your a great son!' talk about bullshit."
"Your like Cinderella, with the wicked stepfather, waiting for your prince to find you at the magical ball." Skilar laughed. Chad glared.
"Your bitterness isn't helping the fact that you haven't had a boyfriend in years." Chad maintained his glare.
"Love and relationships are overrated." Skilar said.
"Is that why you haven't had a boyfriend since kinder?" Chad asked. This was Skilar's turn to glare, which she did, tenfold than Chad's glare.
"Well, you guys are a handful." Spencer laughed, nervously. "I'll be up in the studio working on my sculpture..." He said as he walked towards the stairs slowly.
"Sculpture?" Chad asked.
"Spencer's an artist." Freddie said.
"Like Matt except that he does real objects, and stuff." Aiden said.
"Yeah, and stuff." Freddie said.
"Coolio." Aiden said.
I smiled, I felt like I was closer to Freddie. I just met someone again, and I feel good about it too. I can't wait to see how this turns out.
Well that's my first iCarly fan fiction. Tell me what you think, and do you think that I should continue it? Don't hate me, please.
