(: and Sam and Freddie are a little out of character here. I think. Yeah.
Oh, and so sorry about the lack of update recently!
I am stressed; too much homework. Please forgive me.
Anyway, glad most of you are reviewing. I'll try to update soon—I haven't even started on the next chapter! But, tomorrow I will.

Freddie's P.O.V.
We walked through a whole section of real Christmas trees, ranging from 20-90 dollars. Carly was having a difficult time picking one out. Once she saw one she liked, she looked around again and find something else better than the last tree. Sam and I just groaned, knowing it'll take hours to find the perfect little Christmas tree for Carly— no wait, not little. Huge.
"Freddie!" Carly exclaimed, tugging on the sleeve of my plaid shirt. "This tree of that? Or that? Or that? Or—"
"I get it Carly." I rolled my eyes. "Prices?"
"All the same." She answered, observing all the trees. "Where's Sam? I need to ask her. Sam!" She shouted, once she caught sight of her sitting on a chair, just outside of the Christmas tree garden thing.
"Huh?" Sam answered, looking tired. "Buy that one." She pointed to one tree. "I like that one better."
"This one?" The salesperson asked, making sure. I jumped, I forgot that dude was there. Carly nodded, following the salesperson guy to the cashier to buy it and put it on top of my car.
I walked over to Sam, (who had her head hanging down) sitting down on the chair next to her. "Puckett."
She raised her head to look at me. "Benson." She closed her eyes. "Gosh, I'm so tired!"
"I can tell. So, what do you want for Christmas?" I asked her. "Any ideas or anything?"
She opened one eye, looking at me. "Uh." She opened her other eye and said, "I don't know."
Carly called us over to help her get the tree on top of the car. I walked over, Sam following me, and together we carried the tree on top of the car, and I tied it up. I climbed into the driver's seat, Sam in the passenger's, and Carly in the back. I wonder why Carly insisted on sitting in the back? I drove us all back to Bushwell plaza where Spencer and I carried the tree into the living room. Sam called me weak, even though I could carry that heavy tree.
"Set it riiiiiiiight here." Spencer said, carrying the tree and placing it next to the countertop. "Perfect." He smiled up at the tree. "Freddo, go grab the decorations in the basement, here are the keys."
I nodded, grabbed the keys, and went down into the basement. I unlocked the gate thing, and pulled out all the decorations, carrying it back to the living room. "Here you go, Spence."
"Thanks." He smiled a goofy smile and was about to ruffle my hair, but thought better and stopped himself. "Nice quiff. Sam, Carlaaaay! Help us with the decorations!"
Sam and Carly bounded down the stairs. "Sorry, we were picking out ideas for tomorrow's iCarly." Carly said.
Sam grabbed a box of ornaments and started putting them up on the tree. I joined in, grabbing some red ornaments and hanging them on the tree. "Dude, we need candy canes for this."
"If we buy some you promise not to eat them?" I asked her, giving her a smirk.
She let out a grunt, saying, "No."
I laughed. "It's fine, we can buy a box for you. Hey Carly, Sam and I are gonna go to the market to buy some candy canes to put up all over your apartment."
She gave me a suspicious look. She's been doing that lately. "Okay, you need money to buy some? I mean, you are wasting your own money for our decorations. I feel a little guilty."
"Nah, it's fine. Come on, Sam." I called Sam over, and we went to the market, quickly buying 4 boxes of 25 candy canes in each box. We walked out, and Sam grabbed the plastic bag from me.
"You promised me one box!" She reminded me. I couldn't help but smile. If I keep smiling, she'll notice something fishy going around. I can't let her know about my crush on her.
We both went back to Bushwell into Carly's apartment, and started decorating the tree again.
The ornaments were all the same colors. Blue… Green… Red… Gold… Silver. But it still looked good. Spencer and I put that fuzzy thingy around the Christmas tree, and attaching some lights to it. It looked beautiful. Sam put the candy canes on the tree, trying desperately not to eat them. "And it's done." I announced.
Carly turned the Christmas lights on, and the actual lights off. "It looks so beautiful. Look, Sam." Carly told Sam.
The blonde-headed demon looked so surprised. I guess she didn't think it would turn out this good. She smiled. "It looks pretty."
"It does, doesn't it?" I grabbed a candy cane from Sam's little candy cane box, and went to the light switch to turn the lights back on.
"So now what?" Sam asked Carly, sitting down on the couch, and counting her candy canes. "Hey. Someone stole a candy cane." I grew wide-eyed, I thought she wouldn't notice. She looked around, and found me sucking on a candy cane. "Nub!" She went up to me, grabbed me by the lapels, and tried to lift me off the ground, but failed miserably. I smirked, I've been working out. She let go of my lapels. "Next time, you'll pay." And there it is. She gave up—Sam Puckett gave up? What has this world come to?
I smirked, and sat next to her. "I've been working out." I commented, putting my hands behind the back of my head. She rolled her eyes, and talked to Spencer about what food they were gonna eat for Christmas.
"Oh, Carls, I forgot to tell you." Sam turned to Carly. "Can I stay over for December week? My mom's out in Vegas…"
"Yeah, of course" Carly replied.
"Good." Sam said, and went back to telling Spencer what to eat for Christmas.
I just sat there thinking of what to get Sam, while Spencer and Sam argued about food, and Carly talked to her friend on the phone. I could get her some shoes… but she doesn't really like shoes. Ugh, tomboy girls are so hard to buy presents for! I can give her a better laptop… Or offer her a lifetime supply of ham and bacon… or burn her a cd of iCarly webisodes. Choices, choices… I need someone's help.
But who should I ask?
Okay! A little OOC && short, you think?
I'm gonna make a little outline of what to write. Lol, I mostly just wing my stories (; (-bad idea.)
