FIRE ESCAPE TALES.

I've never thought that a simple place could have so much meaning. Every time I'm there, i know that moment is gonna mean something in the future. Let me explain. I don't believe in fairy tales. They are stupid and cheesy. My life wasn't nothing like a fairy tale. It was more like a Fire escape Tale.

Hi. I'm Sam and this is my Fire escape Story.

The first time I remember well. It was 2 years ago. It was the night of my first kiss. With Freddie. Don't ask me why but I wanted to kiss him. I guess my relationship with him was kind of confusing at that time. Frenemies if you want a name. Anyways… I will never forget my first kiss. With Freddie Benson, in the fire escape.

The second time wasn't happy. It was the day my Dad died. I wasn't in touch with him but, well, he was my father and I was sad.

I went to Carly's after the funeral. Freddie came too. We were still fighting but it was more like a game that a real fight. That day we didn't fight. He even held my hand during the service. I went to the fire escape in a second when no one was watching me. I needed to think.

Freddie came after a few minutes. He didn't say anything. He just sat next to me.

The third time. I really hated that time.

It was the night I realized I liked Freddie. It was the night of the Girl's Choice Dance. When I saw the dancing, Carly and Freddie. It was Carly the one who came. I didn't wanted to talk to her. I hated her that night.

"It meant nothing" she said. I didn't believe her. I saw that look on her eyes I know her. She's my best friend. And I was right; I'm a fucking genius. They started to date a few month after that stupid dance. It last a few week…

That leads me to the fourth moment.

The night He told me:

"I broke up with her. You were right. I was being bacon"

"You are far away from being bacon Fredward. It's an insult to bacon." I was serious and he smiled.

"I'll take that as a compliment". I blushed a little but luckily he didn't notice. We spent like half an hour looking at Seattle lights and I went home.

We kept having moments like that last one during the last two years of high school. Just the two of us, in the fire escape, enjoying each other company.

Carly never said a thing. I think she knew we needed those moments.

I've never had the courage to tell him how I feel. I dated a few idiots and so did Freddie, this last year. Carly's been dating Gibby. They are cute together.

Prom's Tonight. I'm all dressed up. Guess where? Yeah. I have no date. Freddie's going with I don't know whom. I don't wanna know. I wanna cry. Luckily I'll die and I will not have to go to Prom alone.

Carly goes to college tomorrow, with Gibby. We made our last iCarly this week. I cried a lot in the solitude of my bedroom. I wanted them to believe that I do not care. I wanted Carly to believe it's the same for me if she goes or stays. And what I wanted most was Freddie believe that I do not care about him.

I'm not a hypocrite. I just don't wanna suffer and make them suffer. I don't deserve their sadness.

It's almost 7. Man, I don't wanna go. I told Carly I was going on my own. I'm sorry but I really wasn't able to stand a limo with Carly and Gibby all in love and Freddie and what ever… No Thanks.

My phone's ringing.

"Hey Carls. I made a stop. I'll be there in a few. Freddork? I don't know where the hell is he. Bye."

Where the fuck can he be? Maybe behind a tree with… ugh! My stomach hurts just to the think of that. I should be Her. I deserve it. I never told him how I feel.

My phone's ringing again.

"Carls! Wassup?"

She's starting to annoy me.

"I'll be there kid. I'm just waiting… what?"

"Camille showed up alone… SAM! FREDDIE'S NOT HERE!"

I'm frozen.

"Tell Carly I'll be fine… I'm in a safe zone."

Freddie is standing in the hallway next to the fire escape window.

"Is he there?"

Carly was still shouting through the phone.

"OH GOD! HE'S THERE! GIBB! HONEY! I TOLD YOU! YOU OWE ME A DINNER!"

Finally I can recover from my petrified state and hang up the phone. I look at him. He's looking at me. Smiling. He talks to me. I'm amazed.

"Don't you have a Prom to go to?"

I smile.

"Yes. But my date's a little bit late."

"He must be hell of an idiot"

I can't talk. My eyes are full of tears.

"Sam… I'm a stupid blind jerk."

I'm crying.

"Why aren't you at Prom?"

"'Cause I'm not with the girl I love".

He's close. I can feel his breath. My eyes are closed.

We kiss again in this magic place.

Prom wasn't that bad after all. I spend it with the man I love in the place I love.

OUR FIRE ESCAPE.
