Kishigo: Helloooo~ Okaay, so I know I said this was going to be a One-Shot but I got some really encouraging reviews and I decided I might as well continue it- Not as a multi-chapter story, because if you check my other stories, I said I was going to try more One-Shots instead of Multi. They might be following a storyline, but it's still going to the considered One-Shots. At least until someone gives me another idea *hint* :P this is going to be in Carly's perspective :3
She snuggled into the bed, deepening her warmth; everything was comfortable, perfect even, at least for now.
The day's events scrolled through her head like an endless story book, the pages flipping from scene to scene.
First was the day's web-show. They had done the best they had done so far.
"And if you come with us over here, we can show you how to morph with warts!" Sam said enthusiastically
"First, we do Sam's choice which is warts morphed with… Ham?" Carly raised an eyebrow at her best friend, who only shrugged
"Mama loves her meat!" Carly laughed and signalled Freddie to start the morph, the result was completed in a matter of seconds.
"It looks like Freddwerp!" Sam joked, only to be returned with an annoyed glare from their tech producer.
"Or should I say, Fredwart." She smiled and winked at the camera, increasing Freddie's annoyance.
Carly just shook her head and giggled, waving a conclusion for the web show.
"And that's all the time we have for this web show!" Sam pointed at the camera seriously
"Drink your milk."
"Hug your dog."
"Hug your neighbour's dog."
"Hug a hobo."
"And have a good night."
The waved together and shouted in unison
"Bye!"
"And we're clear!" He clapped "I'm just going to hook up these AV wires then I can boost our color spectrum!" Freddie cheered as he shut the camera off, Sam just chuckled to herself
"You nerdy little nub…" Carly laughed, amused as always with her friends insults
Freddie just smiled to himself, throwing some root beers to his friends.
"Cheers, to iCarly!" The girls joined in, mimicking
"To iCarly!"
They drank their sodas in peace.
Carly smiled at the memory, it was as vivid in her mind as the color spectrum or whatever it was that Freddie was talking about.
There was one more memory that lingered in her head like a fly.
One in particular
The lock-in
She particularly remembered the ending speech
Sam insisted on Freddie leaving after his and Brad's invention, a Pear-Pod app, indicated that she was in love. As in in love with Brad.
Well, he was half right. He stood directly in front of Sam.
And he spoke.
"Look I know it's scary for you to put your feelings out there." Sam's stance softened and she looked him in the eyes, recognizing his caring gaze.
"Cause you never know if the person you like is going to like you back. Everyone feels that way. But you never know, what might happen if you-"He was cut off by the most unexpected event he or anyone for that matter could imagine.
Sam kissed him.
The duration was approximately ten seconds… But the results of her simple actions would change both their lives
Forever.
When she released him, Sam awkwardly stepped back, she waited for Freddie's response
"I…" Freddie started, shocked. Sam just stood in her place on the cold concrete. She stiffened herself and tightened her shoulders. Sam casually stated
"Sorry." Freddie, still shocked, replied
"It'sok."
Little to their realization, Carly was a main witness to the whole event.
Carly snuggled deeper into her purple duvet, what was she going to do? Her best friends kissed… Again. She understood privacy, but when were they planning to tell her? What was she going to tell them?
She rolled over, the full moon shone through her room, illuminating the gummy bear lamp that seemingly floated through the room at this time of night.
She couldn't take it, she had to talk to Sam.
Now.
She hurried over to the apartment meant for people who didn't have much money.
'Perfect for Sam's mom…' Carly rolled her eyes, they had made the whole thing a joke after a while.
But tonight,
It was no time for jokes.
The brisk November air chilled Carly's nerves, even bundled in her brown suede jacket, the snowy air still weaved its way into her skin.
When she got there, she heard noise
But it wasn't noise you wanted to hear
It was Sam, and her mom.
They were fighting.
You could hear Sam trying to defend herself, barrelling through different paths to avoid random objects.
Objects?
Carly became scared, what were they doing?
As soon as she heard Sam scream an ear piercing screech, the racket suddenly stopped.
Oh no!
Carly frantically rummaged through her purse and grabbed her cellphone.
Dial
"Hello? 9-1-1 here, how what is your situation?" A woman on the other line picked and questioned. Carly answered quickly, so swift that she wasn't sure the other person on the line would understand her incoherent response.
"H-Hello? I am Carly Shay, I am near the affordable houses or whatever you call them, I just came over to my friend's house- She's in trouble! I-I don't know what going on… Come quickly!"
"Ma'am, we'll be right over, stay calm."
Carly started hyperventilating, she has never been in a situation like this before,
At least not without Sam
Sam always helped Carly when she needed help.
Always.
And now, Sam needed help
And Carly could do nothing
She felt so useless
So betrayed to herself
And to Sam…
The paramedics and police officers arrived shortly and flooded the scene
Poor Sam, she couldn't even look straight.
Wait… She couldn't even look at all… She was unconscious!
"Sam!" Carly cried for her Best friend.
She decided to stay hidden from all the people who were swarming the home, they would make Carly leave
And that was the last thing she wanted to happen.
To Carly's greatest surprise, no one even noticed that she was absent.
She was glad.
All she wanted now, was for Sam to be ok.
Added to Carly's interest, Freddie arrived, in the state of being just as heartbroken as Carly was.
Carly was devastated, but she decided she had to stay strong.
She and Freddie shared the same thought
They had to stay strong
For Sam.
Freddie never knew Carly was there, but Carly was glad she was.
She needed to know what was happening.
After Freddie was informed of what had happened, he rushed beside the make-shift bed Sam was lied upon.
Freddie stayed beside Sam
All night.
Freddie really did care
He cared for her, and though he didn't know
She cared for him.
Freddie thought back upon previous events, the old Sam.
This wasn't Sam anymore.
What if she never was the same?
What would happen then?
Freddie made a silent vow then and there,
That he would stay by Sam,
No matter what.
Carly felt a tear slide gently down her cheek as well.
How could someone do this to her? How could someone do this to Sam?
She shook her head,
no one human.
Freddie silently sobbed, shaking his head in despair.
Then, he leaned down, gently, lightly, carefully
Kissed her back.
Carly smiled, he did it.
But maybe he was too late.
Just as his droopy eyes scaled her beaten appearance once more, Freddie leaned closer
He whispered something
"I love you…"
Carly cried in happiness and sadness
Happiness for that the love was revealed
The sad part was, that the girl receiving the truth, might never be awake to hear it.
Just as Carly turned, and Freddie gave up his hopes
The nightmare revealed one more thing
A light in darkness
A crevice in hope.
A girl
Her eyes gently fluttered open.
At first, no one noticed her, but sure enough.
Freddie did.
She weakly smiled, Carly, who was second to notice, was jumping up and down with herself, overjoyed with her friends release from the side that would let her for good.
And Freddie had retrieved her.
Love is delicate, sharp and pointy, soft and fragile.
If you break it, you do it at your own expense
But that day, the broken pieces that has shattered long ago
Were replaced
"Hey Fredwad."
Okay, it's not as good as I was expecting, but I felt it was necessary. If Carly is a little OOC, don't blame me, there are some characters I am good at and others I am not :) Please review, and give me some ideas! PLEASE! :D
Also, I give a special thanks to all those who subscribed, and reviewed, especially:
