I Don't own iCarly, cause if I did, Freddie would SOOOOO be over Carly completely and dating Sam by now, nothing against Shay, but she and Freddie just don't mix. Sam's the right girl for the kid, too bad he doesn't seem to get that, and neither does she.

Well, this is my first shot at a Seddie fic, and I'm hoping you all enjoy it, I've decided to set things up in a different way because I see a whole heckuvalot of Sam running off to try to change herself for Freddie in these Fics, but not as many Freddie journeys of self discovery, and I think he needs it more then she does. So here's my two cents, please enjoy, and the first full Chapter will be up tomorrow!

Fredward Allan Benson, the full name of Freddie "The biggest nub I ever met" Benson, and the young man who she, Samantha Joy Puckett missed more then anything in the world right now. Freddie had been her stress reliever, confidant, companion, punching bag, and so much more over the years since their friendship had began. Now he was gone, it wasn't as though it had been with out warning, and it wasn't as if he was her boy friend or anything, but then why did she feel so hurt? Why did Sam "Tough Girl" Puckett feel like she had a hole in her heart that just wouldn't fill up without Fredwierdo around? Alas, right now she didn't have time to think about it, she Carly and Gibby had to get to work on tonight's episode of iCarly, with Freddie giving back up tech support over the internet. So banishing the frown from her face, it was time to get to work.

On the other side of the world at the exact same time:

Freddie had just finished unpacking his things in his new dorm room at the Santa Victoria Academia, an elite private school in Barcelona Spain that had some of the most impressive testing results and post graduation college acceptance records in the world. The school had more graduates attending Ivy League class colleges then any other high school in the world. The greatest part was that while Freddie had impressive enough grades to be accepted for a partial scholarship, his extra curricular activities in fencing had actually won him a full ride to the school, where he would be studying with some of the greatest Fencing instructors in all the world.

One of his instructors in fact was not just a Master of Fencing, but also a 10th Dan practitioner of Kenjutsu, the combination of the Japanese sword fighting art Kendo, and Jiujutsu, one of the oldest Oriental grappling martial arts. This combination of training was one of the things that had piqued his interest most, seeing as how he had been coming to a realization regarding one Sam Puckett in recent months. Freddie had decided he was going to need a bit more then a Fencing repertoire if he were to come forward with his feelings to Sam.

As he saw it now, she would probably rip his head off if he told her that she had been creeping her way in to his dreams late at night, in some of which not leaving until he woke in the morning. Ever since she'd helped him see the light about he and Carly's relationship a few months back during last school year, right after the "Taco Truck" incident, Sam had been starting to take Carly's place in all of his late night fantasies, and his day time ones at that. It may have even started before that, possibly as far back as their first kiss all that time ago, but he couldn't be certain. So now here Freddie was, ready to being the two years of his life as a student at the Santa Victoria Academia, and gain the emotional and physical strength he would need to win the heart of the woman he loved when he returned home.

All he could really do was hope, hope and believe…

Back in Seattle, in the iCarly studios, as Gibby follows Freddie's instructions via web-cam broadcast from S.V.A. (Santa Victoria Academia).

"And we're live in 5, 4, 3, 2... Go." Gibby gave Carly and Sam the signal as the two girls jumped forward at the camera slung over the semi-chubby young man's shoulder.

"I'm Santa Victoria," Carly said, before hopping back and taking a short bow.

"And I'm Academia en Barcelona," Sam said, before repeating Carly's own action with a bit more of a Shakespearean flair to the whole thing, as she pressed the 'applause' button on her blue remote.

The automated laughter and clapping of the faux crowd ceased over the speakers before Carly and Sam both stepped forward with a smile on their faces. "Actually guys, we're pretty sure you all know who we are, but since Freddie just arrived in Spain today to begin his studies at Santa Victoria Academia, Sam and I have decided to put on a special 'We'll Miss You Freddie' episode," and with that Carly signaled Gibby to the roll the footage reel they'd made of Freddie doing his Tech Producer thing over the years, but before he could enter the command on the laptop next to him, Sam grabbed on to the camera shocking both of the other two.

"One thing first, I don't know where this is coming from, so take it for what it's worth Fredducini, I'm sorry, I mean 'Freddie.' But for real man, Momma's gonna miss you Nub, take care of yourself over there, and you had better come home for Christmas! Oh, and I still hate you!" Sam said, before awkwardly letting go of Gibby and the camera, and signaling for him to continue with the wave of an upturned hand. In response to the questioning looks shot her way by both Gibby and Carly, Sam just looked to the side, whistling to herself under her breath rocking back and forth on her heels. When Carly finally raised an eyebrow at her wild maned blond best friend, Sam just shrugged.

"What, so I pick on the kid daily, and kinda beat him up almost every day as well. That doesn't mean I don't want him to come back in one piece, if he didn't that would leave me with just Gibson over there to beat on and then call my friend later, and that wouldn't be any fun." Sam retorted to Carly's unspoken comments, stopping them from ever being spoken.

Back in Barcelona:

Freddie let loose a hearty laugh as he leaned back in to his desk chair, maybe it wouldn't be so hard to tell Sam how he felt, because as he watched her little display before they started the Freddie blooper reel, he saw one thing in her eyes, and that was the same thing he'd seen in his own every time he looked in to a mirror for the past month since being accepted to the school. He had to fight his mom tooth and nail, and break two of his best friend's hearts, while one hid it much better then the other did until her little outburst tonight, but he had gotten the space he was going to need to grow in to the man he wanted to be when he told Sam how he felt. Every day he'd looked in the mirror this last month and only seen sadness, but not anymore.

He knew that Sam's eyes were sad as well, her threats and "I hate you" weren't as forceful, and her step seemed a little less bouncy, that was what he saw when he watched her on iCarly a few moments ago. That gave him hope that she felt at least similar feelings for him as he had for her, he missed her. He realized that wasn't so bad of him to admit, because regardless of the "I Hate You" comments, and the threatening texts and E-Mails she'd sent him all Month it was obvious that she missed him just as much as he did her.

Hope you liked it, please R and R and tell me what you think.
