Oh hey! Sorry for the late update :)

Chapter 4:

Breaking the Walls Down

It feels like heaven just fell from the earth when Sam informed him that she's leaving. Why? He didn't know.

"Why are you leaving? Give me one good reason why, Sam." Freddie demanded. He lose her once just because of a stupid comment that they just heard. He is determined to get her, and to be with her again.

Sam was really uncomfortable. She is not used seeing Freddie domineering her. "What is this, an exam? Listen Fredork, it's not my decision to leave, okay? "She reasoned out.

"Sam, just answer me or else…" Uh-oh. Sam knew that pissing Freddie off was not a good idea. But tell him? God that would be so embarrassing. She is not used to tell her problems to other people, especially Freddie. He was the last person that she could think of before she does that.

"So? You gonna tell me or what?" Freddie crossed his arms to his chest waiting for her answer.

"Calm your ass, nub. Uhhhh, how do I start this? Last night, after Carly was gone off to the airport, my mom called me for dinner and said that there was going to be a surprise. Melanie was also there. So when I-"Sam stopped telling Freddie the events of last night because she was on the verge of crying.

Freddie knew that she needed someone to lean on to, and so he did. He leaded them to the couch in which he found on an abandoned apartment. He made Sam sit and followed her action; he encircled his arms on Sam's shoulders, soothing her.

"Sam?" Freddie called Sam's attention. "What happened?"

"I-I thought that mom has a new boyfriend, but it was not just one of her boyfriends."

God! This thrill is killing him! "Then what, Sam?" He was patient enough and he urged Sam to tell him what happened next.

"I just met my dad! Oh God, that's what, happened. And he… he wants us to move out with him." By the time Sam finished saying the last word, she can't take it anymore. She burst out into tears. It was not really a major situation to cry on, but it was too much. She felt Freddie hugging her and whispering comforting words to her. They stayed in that position, Freddie hugging Sam, for like an eternity. Sam didn't realize it until she fell asleep. She was awakened from her slumber by the gentle shaking of her shoulders.

"Sam? Sweets, you gotta wake up. Come on Sammy."

"Huh? What?" Sam mumbled, still half-asleep.

"You fell asleep, Sam." Freddie chuckled, and helped Sam sit up.

Sam saw that the sky was getting dark, and felt that her hair was disheveled. She fixed her hair and asked Freddie the time. "It's already6:30, Sweets." Freddie replied.

She suddenly recalled what happened earlier after they kissed. Her cheeks, no scratch that, her whole face turned beet red when she remembered that she broke all the walls that she built up against Freddie and cried her heart out in front of him as he comforted her. Damn, she was such a sissy.

"Uhhhh, Freddie?" Sam started out. "About earlier, I'm sorry I cried in front of you. I know I should have- "

"Don't mention it, Sam. You were pretty brave telling me everything." Freddie smiled. "So, will you go with him?"

"With who?" Sam asked, confused.

"With your dad. Will you go with him to God knows where?" he asked while gesturing something his hands.

"It's L.A., Fredward. I… I don't know yet, okay? I can't trust him that fat. I just need to… think about it." When Sam saw that Freddie was trying to look at her eyes, she averted her gaze from his face and gazed to the floor instead.

"Sam? Do you still love me?" Oh here we go again… Sam grunted.

"What? Turning the tables now, Freddork?" Sam tried to lighten up the atmosphere by playfully nudging him. She doesn't really like drama and stuff. She grew with it, that's why she doesn't like crying especially in front of another person. Besides, she doesn't want her reputation of being a badass ruined. Hey, even though it's not a good reputation, but she worked hard for it!

"Hey! I told you my answer, I should know yours too!" Freddie whined, getting up and towering her, to intimidate her.

Sam shook her head, "No can do, you can't intimidate me! No one can intimidate Momma!" Sam exclaimed, even though Freddie towering her in the couch maker her blush. This was their position before something happened to them.

Freddie raised a brow, "Really? Then why are you blushing?"

"Believe it or not, but I have natural, rosy cheeks," Sam boasted. Okay, that was not very Sammish of you Sam. Did you forget how to Sam! She scolded herself.

Instead of replying a smart remark, Freddie tackled and tickled her in every part of her that's sensitive. She squirmed under his touch, and struggled to stop him from tickling her.

"Freddie! Ahhh! Stop it! Stop tickling-Ahhh! STOP IT!" Sam squealed. She was very not Sam today. What is happening to her?

Freddie finally stopped tickling her and went to sit by the window she earlier occupied. "I really miss us, Sammy." He said with the hint of sadness, while gazing at the stars in the sky.

Sam sighed and followed him and sat at the opposite edge of the window. "Do you still love me, Sam?" Freddie asked again.

"I-I can't answer that now, Freddie. I'm too distracted right now." She lied. Oh, how she wish she can say that she loves him too. Sam saw Freddie's shoulders slump, and she bet it's because of what she said. "But I didn't say I don't love you, nub. Calm your ass."

"Then you'll stay here in Seattle? You're almost eighteen, Sam. I'm sure they'll let you stay here." Freddie said, hoping that she'll make up her mind about leaving. He swear, he will do everything to make Sam stay. He can't afford to lose another best friend and his girl. He'd go crazy if Sam will leave him. He knew that Sam still loves him, but it seems like she's so distant. What happened to her?

"I'll… I'll think about it." Sam assured him. Well, that's a relief, Freddie thought. At least she considered it.

"Hey, I need to go home, now. Melanie wants to talk to me," Sam shrugged. Though she and Melanie were twins, they are far different from each other.

"Okay, I'll go with you," Freddie got up next to her.

"To my house?" Sam's brows furrowed.

"No, silly! To the Groovie Smoothie. I saw your motorcycle there," Freddie winked. "Besides, I'm not ready to face Melanie. Damn! Your twin is worse than you!" Freddie exclaimed hands up in the air. Sam chuckled. Freddie really can't handle Pucketts. Well, except you, a small voice in Sam's head told her.

They walked to the Groovie Smoothie, hands interlocked with each other. They were silent the whole time, but contented with both of them just by the other's side. When they reached the Groovie Smoothie, Sam knew things are going to get awkward, so she hurriedly scanned where she parked her bike and mount it hurriedly and looked at Freddie who was going to her direction.

"Well, I have to go now." Sam said. She really hates being in an awkward situation. Ughhh.

"Oh, okay. One more thing," Freddie walked more closer to her and kissed her full on the lips. Sam responded quickly, biting Freddie's lower lip. By the time Sam pulled off from their kiss, she already got her lips swollen red.

"Bye, Sweets." Freddie got her helmet and put it on her head. "For safety," smiled.

"Bye, nub." Sam smirked then brought the motorcycle to life.


"Sam, thank God! What took you so long?" Melanie gasped when she saw her sister going in her room.

"I hung out with Freddie," Sam nonchalantly said while taking her shoes off and threw them to God knows where, maybe Narnia.

Melanie's eyes lit and scoot near Sam, "Well, tell me! What happened?" Melanie smiled at Sam, wiggling her eyebrows.

Sam playfully slapped her twin's arm, "It's none of your business. Since when did you become so pervy?"

Melanie ignored Sam and continued to bug her, "Sam! Tell me!"

"Nothing that you're concerned of," Sam snorted.

"Fine! But I knew that two of you kissed!"

Sam's eyes widened, "How did you know? Did you send someone to look over us? Did you stalk me?"

"No! That's creepy, Sam. Why would I do that? Anyway, I was just bluffing, but it looked like it worked," Melanie grinned.

"Okay, Mel. You got me, but what do you really want to talk about?"

"Do you want to move at L.A.?" Melanie asked, fiddling with the hem of her shirt.

"Uhhh, not really. I just want to stay here and go to an arts school." Sam looked at her sister, "Why? Do you want to move?"

Melanie was quiet for a moment before she answered, "I don't know. I guess whatever will do, but I can understand why you don't want to leave Seattle."

"And why is that?"

"Well, because you have Freddie," Mel winked at her twin. "You still love him, right?" Even though Melanie was on a boarding school, they never lose in touch with each other. They always fight but Mel was the only person Sam could turn on to if she has some problems. Talking Carly with it seems too risky.

"Sorta. That's why I don't feel like leaving Seattle." Sam smiled at the thought.

I think I didn't put any 'spice' in this chapter...

Well, I'll try at the next ;)
