A/N The test is done and I got an A on it. I have so much less hanging over my head this weekend so hopefully I'll get some one shots done as well as make progress on this story. This story is my number one priority and I plan to keep my promise of uploading one chapter a week until this story is finished. If I have time I'll do one shots but this comes first. I have to admit, this chapter is sort of a filler chapter. Nothing major happens but it is needed to keep the plot continuous. Things should get interesting in the chapters after this. On with the story.
Sam's POV
I woke up at ten in the morning the next day. It was Saturday. Normally I would hang out with Carly and Freddie on Saturdays but ever since they started dating it hasn't been as fun. I've tagged along when they were doing things but I always felt like a third wheel. Still I had nothing better to do so I walked the ten blocks to Bushwell Plaza and walked into Carly's apartment like I always do. Surprisingly I didn't find Carly and Freddie making out. Freddie was nowhere to be seen and Carly was putting books in her backpack.
"Where's your boyfriend and why are you getting ready for school on a Saturday?"
"He's not my boyfriend anymore and I have to go to Wendy's to work on my AP Physics project."
"Wait, you guys broke up? Why?"
"We got home from our date last night and we—"
"Hola chicas."
Freddie walked in the door.
"Hi Freddie. I can't stay. I have to get to Wendy's. Oh, and Sam, Freddie has something for you."
Carly left and it was just me and Freddie.
"So I heard you and Carly broke up."
"Yeah, we did" he told me without any emotion and without saying why.
I wanted to know why, but I decided not to ask. I was just glad they broke up. I was scared that if I asked why he might question it and go back to Carly. That's not something I wanted to happen. Time to change the subject.
"So Carly said you have something for me?"
"Yep."
He pulled out two movie tickets. They were to Ted.
"Oh my god I've always wanted to see Ted! But wait. Why are you taking me?"
"I just figured we could do something together since Carly is working on a school project." He said innocently.
We went to the movie and bought large popcorn and a giant soda. Me and Freddie laughed throughout the entire movie much to the chagrin of the other movie goers. When the credits started to roll we left the theatre and went to Jimmy Johns. Freddie bought me a massive sandwich with bacon and ham and all kinds of meaty goodness. We talked about a ton of things and joked about how mad the people at the movie were.
"Remember when that chick shushed us and I threw a handful of popcorn at her?"
"Yeah, and then she left. She reminded me of Ms. Briggs. What was she doing at a comedy anyway?"
"I don't know but she certainly didn't have a sense of humor."
Me and Freddie finished our meal. I was about to leave when Freddie grabbed my arm.
"Wait Sam. There's one more thing I have to for us to do."
He pulled out tickets to Six Flags.
"You go to Six Flags? Doesn't Crazy worry that you'll fall off a roller coaster or something?"
"She doesn't know."
"Nice. Let's go."
The first ride me and Freddie went on was the Twister. Me and Freddie got into the cart and the guy pulled the bar down. The ride started up and we started getting higher and higher. When I saw we were higher than the roof on the building I started to get scared. I'm scared of heights. I froze up.
"Sam, are you okay?" Freddie asked as we got higher and higher.
"I'm just kind of scared of heights" I admitted.
"It's okay. Just close your eyes and enjoy the speed of the coaster."
I did what he suggested and I felt safer. The car got to the top and then started speeding downward. We zipped back and forth for what seemed like the longest time. Finally it came to an end. After that Freddie made sure to take me on the rides that didn't go too high. We spent the rest of the day at the amusement park. When the park closed Freddie walked me home.
"So did you have fun?"
"Yeah, I did. How about you?"
"I had fun. Who knew the great Sam Puckett was scared of heights?"
"Shut up." I playfully hit him.
We got to my house and stood on my door step.
"So I guess I'll see you tomorrow?"
"Yeah."
We just stood there for a while not really knowing what to say.
"Well, bye Sam." Freddie said and he left.
I walked into an empty house. I thought about the wish I made last night. I kind of went on a date with Freddie. We didn't call it that but that's sort of what it was. He was so sweet to me too. He did break up with Carly before we I got to Carly apartment this morning. That's the first thing he would have to do to date me. Did I get my wish? I didn't really believe in wishing upon a star and I'm still not sure I do. I got some of my wish but I don't think me and Freddie are dating. It's not like we did anything a couple would do today. Still, today was still a pretty good day and my relationship with Freddie is certainly better for it. I just don't know. I am excited for what the future will bring. If this whole wishing upon a star really is true maybe it takes more than a day. Today was a good start to what I want with Freddie but we're not there yet. I'm still really excited about what the future will bring.
A/N That's the chapter. Like I said, it's kind of filler. Nothing too exciting but I had to get this out of the way. I'm hoping next chapter will have something more exiting for Sam and Freddie. There's also a reason I didn't reveal why Carly and Freddie broke up. It will come up later in the story but revealing it now would ruin the story.
