A/N: This story is here because of 5dRaWkCab. This person messaged me to tell me that I needed to work more on this story, so this chapter is for 5dRaWkCab. If you liked it review, If you didn't you should most definitely review and tell me why! Thanks!

Lindsay backed her dad's truck out of the garage while Freddie looked through her Pear Pod, finding some music that interested him. She had picked Freddie up just after his mom got home from and had spent most the day together.

"Don't you have any cuddle fish?" He asked not realizing what he had just said,

Lindsay slowed the truck and turned to look at Freddie.

"Look, it's cool seeing you, but I have just three rules. Don't touch my radio, no puking in the car, and no food or drinks. And since Cuddlefish makes me want to throw up everything I've ever eaten, we don't listen to them. No whiny little girl music. I've got some Reckless Kelly my aunt sent me."

Freddie shrugged his shoulders and spun the wheel until he came to the band she had asked for. He didn't really like cuddlefish all that much, but he never really got a vote when they were on, so it had grown on him.

They drove down the black top road, headed towards the middle of town where Freddie had a Webshow to shoot, talking about the paintball game they had planned to play after the show was done and cars, something Freddie had stayed up most of the night looking up, to his mothers dismay.

At Carly's apartment, things weren't going so smooth. Sam was sitting in a kitchen chair she had pulled into the living room where she could see the door and the elevator. At the breakfast bar Spencer and Carly were drinking a peppy cola. Spencer was a little confused.

"I don't get it. Why is Sam sitting there again?"

"She's waiting for Freddie to get here."

"And why is Sam waiting for Freddie to get here?"

"So she can beat him up for dumping Smoothies on her last night."

"Oh, okay" Spencer decided not to push the issue. He knew how it would happen. He'd walk in the door, sam would threaten him, they'd run around the sofa a few times until Carly made them stop. He told Carly she should head off the confrontation.

"Sam, you should lay off Freddie. If he has found someone who makes him happy, we should support him"

Sam shrugged her shoulders and walked over to where both Shays stood.

"Yeah, I guess what ever gets the little creeper to stop stalking you."

"Sam-" Carly was going to try to explain her friend that Freddie wasn't a creeper, but her phone buzzed with a text from Freddie saying they were here.

Carly was surprised, usually Freddie just walked in, but sent a text back telling him to come in, and waited for the door to open and him to come waltzing in.

But when the door opened it wasn't Freddie who came in first. It was Lindsay. Carly had to stop and look. She was wearing a weight hoodie and a pair of Camoflouge pants, her hair in a low ponytail. She looked very tomboyish, but her earrings, clean skin, and perfect manicured fingernails clashed, making it hard for the two girls to judge her. Carly thought she saw her shoot a dirty look her way, but it went away so fast she wasn't sure. Freddie followed like a lost puppy dog, also wearing a pair of camoflouge pants, and a olive green shirt. At the sight of the two, Sam jumped up, fire in her eyes. She was held back by Carly, who whispered calming words to her

"I'll give you a ham smoothie if you're nice."

Sam's disposition was changed instantly. Bribes worked well, something she wished more people knew.

That bribe made the night go smoothly. Carly and Sam were willing to let the new girl help Freddie behind the camera. As long as she stays there, Sam added.

It ended well for most of them. Although Gibby realized he was going to have to ride the bus home in the last segment.

"..and that's why you should never let two young webhosts work on your scooter." Sam yelled into the camera.

"I'm Sam!"

"I'm Carly"

"And I'm screwed!" Gibby said looking at his scooter.

Freddie signaled Lindsay, who ended the live feed to the internet and allowed playback of the weeks video.

"And we're clear!"

Lindsay had hung her hoodie up and was leaning on the cart, her shirt showing plenty of cleavage had not gone unnoticed by either guy.

Freddie congratulated his friends on a show well done and went to help Gibby roll his scooter to the elevator and out to the lobby.

The moment the elevator door closed, Carly's eyes shot to Lindsay. She had come out from behind the computer stand and moved quickly towards Carly until Sam stepped in front of her.

"Get out of my way Sam."

Sam didn't move. Instead she took a step closer to Lindsay, who sized up sam and shot both girls a disgusted look.

"Whatever. I'm just going to say it once. Stay away from Freddie."

She turned around to get her sweater, but was stopped by Carly's voice.

"Why should we stay away from him? He's our friend."

Lindsay's head turned, followed by her body. Her eyes full of anger that hadn't existed a few seconds ago.

"Your friend?" She asked angrily."Your friend? If that's how you treat your friends, I'd hate to be your enemy. Just leave him alone."

Carly was completely bewildered.

"What do you mean? Okay maybe Sam isn't always nice to Freddie, but if he needed it, she'd stick up for him, or be there or whatever he needed!"

"Oh come on, You know what I mean. You two play with his emotions. You think it's ok for you to lead him on so he won't leave ICarly."

Carly walked in front of sam.

"I'm not leading him on. He's asked me out, and I say no. He's just a friend to me! Besides, if Freddie really wanted to leave iCarly he can."

"Who do you think your fooling? I've asked around about you two. You act like a tease around him." The pitch of her voice went up as she started to mock Carly "Oh Freddie would you like to taste my lip balm? Oh would you like to dance since my date was too annoying to stand?"

Sam stepped up.

"Don't talk to my friend that way. It's not like that, you don't know how it is."

"Oh I don't know? You're the worst! Freddie stops telling HER" Lindsay pointed at Carly "that he likes her, and you think it's okay to kiss him so he won't move on to someone else? That it's ok to go on dates with him dressed as though you had a twin sister, and kiss him again? Both of you are leading him on so he won't leave iCarly. Because you know without him, your show would look terrible, and you'd be stuck with your dumb, lets get people to sit on things and guess what they are segments you two do. It's all his electronic stuff that makes your show so great. I've asked around. When Freddie did a different show, it was ten times better than your show without him. You know the truth. And you'll do anything to keep him. I know he he promised you he'd never quit, and he won't. That's how awesome Freddie is. So I'm going to make him see the light, until then I will be here every time to watch you two. When I'm not here, you two had better keep you hands off him."

Lindsay grabbed her keys and headed towards the door.

"Oh, and don't worry about that poor kid. I'll fix his scooter. Because I don't take advantage of people. Not that you two would care."

Lindsay walked out quickly as both girls stood there, shocked at what had just happened.
