Saving His Life

Sam's POV
Things were no different than normal the day that I saved his life.
Well...besides the fact that Carly, Freddie, and I were standing on a highway, Carly dressed up in a bunny suit, asking random people if she could brush their teeth for a dollar.
No, my best friend hadn't gone crazy. She was dared by an iCarly fan. It was embarrassing to watch, but kind of funny at the same time. I laughed out loud for the millionth time that day when her newest victim ran off the moment she walked up to him.
"Sa-am! It's not funny!" She whined.
"It so is!" I said in between giggles. "See, even the dork's laughing." I pointed at Freddie who was trying very hard to hide his smile.
"I'm not laughing." He said, forcing his face straight.
Oh, please." I said rolling my eyes. " Carly looked totally pathetic. You were laughing."
"Guys!" Carly interrupted what would have grown into another huge, pointless fight.
"Don't fight. I'm ready to go home. This has been a complete waste of time."She said, taking a seat on the cobble stone pavement.
"Oh, not yet! We haven't even made any money! I thought maybe if we made enough we could go out for tacos?" I said hopefully. I have been craving tacos for the past few days. Man what I would give for one!
Carly put her chin in her hands. "No way. I'm not asking anyone else if I can brush their teeth for a dollar. It was a stupid dare. Plus I'm sweaty, itchy, and I smell like your Uncle Dave."
"Oh, come on, can't you at least try and make one buck?" Freddie asked sitting next to her. "You don't want to disappoint the viewers."
"No but I also don't want to loose my dignity."
I smirked at her outfit. "Too late for that, babe."
She rolled her eyes at me.
Suddenly I noticed a man walking in our direction. He looked like the laid back type. He wore a red Hawaiian shirt and white shorts. His clothes also had holes and them and it didn't seem as if he had showered in days. He looked around forty.
"Hey, go ask him." I told her. "He looks like the type to agree don't you think?"
"Sam, I already told you I don't wanna-"
"Come on!" I said pushing her. "I'll guarantee he'll say yes." I pushed her in his direction where she grudgingly approached the man.
Freddie and I could see her speaking to him not far away. I didn't like the way he eyed her. I think Freddie noticed it too. But neither of us thought he meant any harm. I mean, a girl in a bunny suit? She looked ridiculous.
But to a forty year-old man...not so much.
Next thing we know we hear a scream as he grabs Carly by the waist and tries to force her into the tree ahead. Oh, my gosh! Not good!
Freddie and I both sprinted to her side. I kneed the guy in the grits so that he screamed like a baby, grabbing himself in that...area. Freddie grabbed a very shaken Carly from the man and hugged her close. I began to use all of my awesome Sam moves on the guy who at first tried to fight me off, then deciding that it was no use, ran off like a little girl.
"You want some of this, big boy?" I shouted in my obnoxious ' I won' voice, spreading my arms wide. "Wanna come back here and get your butt kicked?"
"Sam, that's enough." Freddie scolded. "I can't believe that just happened. What were you thinking, Sam? You almost got Carly hurt."
"Dude, don't blame me for this!" I said, insulted. "How was I supposed to know that guy was an old, perverted nut case?"
"Stop fighting!" Carly yelled, moving out of Freddie's arms, glaring at us both. "You're always fighting and I'm sick of it! It's not Sam's fault! Let's just be glad that nothing happened and go home!"
"But Sam's always-"
"No, Freddie is-"
"STOP!"
We both shut up.
"I just hope that one day you guys learn to love each other. I don't care what has to happen to make you realize that theirs more to your relationship than shouting and insults. I swear, you guys are going to have to understand that you're friends and friends aren't always at each others throats! Now I'm going to call Spencer so he can take us home!"
She stalked off far away from us where she took out her cell and started to call Spencer.
"See what you did?" I rounded on Freddie.
"Me? You're the one who's always starting stuff like this! I've always tried, since the day we met to be friends with you but you never liked me!"
"Well maybe if you weren't a nub, I would like you." I smirked.
"See, you did it again!" He looked really angry now."You know what? I don't know why I still try to get along with you!" He backed up into the road as he yelled at me.
"You never treat me how you treat Carly. You act like I don't matter, like I'm nothing but your punching bag! You never give me any respect. You don't even call me by my real name! I'm done trying to be friends with someone as ungrateful and hateful as y-"
"FREDDIE, LOOK OUT!" I shouted.
There was a taco truck speeding his way, coming at him so quickly, if I blinked, I was sure he would be hit.
It seemed as if time had slowed down. Freddie hadn't even turned to see where I was pointing yet. He looked confused first, then slowly his head turned and he gaped at the truck coming towards him.
Why the heck was he still standing there? Why wouldn't he move?
I was so frightened. If he didn't move right now, he didn't have a chance.
I ran into him from behind, using all of my weight to shove him out of the way. I saw him land a few feet away on the pavement. He looked up at me, now standing in his place, with a frightened look. He was safe.
That's all I knew before I blacked out.
A/N: Tell me what you think! I'll have up the next chapter as soon as possible.
