A/N: Erin and I have been planning to co-write something for a while, but it took a bit of time to coordinate it, so here it is!

September

Carly shuts her locker door to see her two best friends looking down at their phones. They look up at her and speak simultaneously,

"You texted?"

They look at each other and glare, before turning back to Carly. She rolls her eyes and then squeals with a sudden change of mood,

"I have a job for you two!"

Freddie raises his eyebrow and turns to Sam, they make eye contact for a moment, having a silent conversation debating whether or not they really want to know. After giving up they both sigh,

"What?"

They glare at each other again and turn back to her, except now, their best friend is happy as a clam,

"Blake Victor is having a Valentine's Day party! I need a date!"

The two groan,

"It's still September!

Their peppy friend smiles,

"Perfect! Ok, so every now and then I'll give you a picture of a guy, and a list of what he likes, and you set us up, ok? And then we just have to keep on with this routine until I find the perfect date! "

Freddie groans again,

"Do we have to?"

Sam rolls her eyes in annoyance,

"Carly's never going to love you, nub."

Freddie growls at her,

"It's not like that-"

But Carly cuts him off,

"Please guys?"

Sam sighs,

"Why Blake Victor? He's always looking at me like a piece of meat-"

The gang hears a bang followed by a whimper, Freddie had punched the side of the lockers, he curses and Sam continues awkwardly,

"Ok… Anyways, he's an asshole, and Jonah's best friend! Carls, he lives on snob's avenue!"

Carly glares at her,

"He lives on Elizabeth Parkway, and he's hot, and rich! Come on! There'll be lot's of cool stuff there!"

Sam shakes Carly,

"You're crazy kiddo, and you'll be bringing a date to the party!"

Carly rolls her eyes with a 'duh' expression,

"All the better to make him jealous!"

Suddenly, Blake and his little 'posse' consisting of Jonah and Reuben, strut by like they own the world,

"Wassup Shay, nerd and m'lady?"

Carly bats her eyelashes and flips her hair flirtatiously,

"Hey Blake."

Sam scoffs and Freddie huffs,

"I'm not a nerd!"

"Yes you are, but I'm not his lady."

Jonah coughs on her,

"Hi Sam."

"Ew!"

She hurriedly walks away and hides behind Freddie, not caring about the position she's in. Blake lightly hits Jonah,

"Hey, cool down,"

He turns to them,

"You're not a nerd, and you're not my lady… yet."

Jonah rolls his eyes and turns back to the gang,

"You coming to the party?"

Reuben smiles,

"It's beach balling swirl all over the chizzle, the purple panda will be sneezing at midnight!"

Carly smiles dreamily,

"Yeah, we're all coming."

Blake smirks,

"Cool. Make sure you wear something tight, Sam."

He winks at her and walks away. Sam sighs, and comes out from behind Freddie,

"Ugh, let's just go."

She tugs on Freddie's sleeve, and drags him outside the school. Carly follows behind shortly, skipping along with enthusiasm like she just became Queen of Cupcake Land.

Sam and Freddie are sitting on the Shay's couch arguing about what ice cream flavor is the best.

"Chocolate!"

"Vanilla!"

"Chocolate!"

It's been like that for the past twenty minutes. They didn't even notice their friend printing out pictures of boys at their school, or Gibby walking through the door. But they do notice the smell of smoke. The two look over to the counter to see Carly and Gibby running from the burning printer, Freddie runs to get a fire extinguisher and puts out the fire. Sam coughs,

"Carls, you really are your brother's sister."

Gibby looks at her in bewilderment,

"Carly has a brother?"

Sam raises her eyebrow,

"Yeah, it's Spencer."

Carly giggles,

"Anyways, I have the first guy portfolio!"

She waves the piece of paper and Sam and Freddie glance at each other wide-eyed,

"Run!"

Carly chases them around the apartment until finally, she corners them in a closet, shuts them in and slips the piece of paper under the door. Sam groans and turns to Freddie in the dark space, he flashes his eyebrows at her and smirks. She slaps him in the face,

"I deserved that."

"You think, nub?"

She sits on the floor of the coat closet and studies the paper, with Freddie looking over her shoulder. She takes a deep breath,

"We have to do this. For Carly."

So, that was the first chapter, review and tell us what you think! A review is a good way to tell us you care. (Even if you don't care, feedback is always nice.)
