I do not own iCarly.

Sam's POV

I was furious. But more than mad I was sad. How could Fredifer do that? I mean, yeah we broke up, but did he hate me now after that? I was confused, I couldn't think straight as I was walking down the street to my house, where just my drunken mother would wait for me. I heard my phone vibrating. It was probably Carly, who has to me worried as hell right now. Maybe I should call her back when I get home. I saw that the lights were turned off, so I guessed my mum was on a date or something like that again. Well at least some good news. I would now have the apartment all for myself. I unlocked the door and stepped in, turning the light on. I looked around and was unpleasantly surprised to see all cleaned up. It's not like I was against tidy rooms, Carly and Spencer's apartment was always clean, but if my home was clean it could only mean one thing.

"Sam! I'm so glad to see you!" I heard a replica of my voice saying. Oh God, Melanie was home, like I wouldn't have enough trouble with Frednub, but now her. I love my sister, don't get me wrong, but you know how Melanie is.

"It's nice to see you too, Mel," I said, forcing out smile. She approached me and embraced me. Even though I hate hugs, there was something soothing and comforting in the way Melanie was hugging me. After we broke the hug an awkward silence filled the room.

"So you had dinner yet? I have made chicken if you want some. I thought about visiting Carly and Spencer, because I figured you would be probably there, but I was very tired after the long way to Seattle so I just cleaned up and relaxed a little bit."

"Actually chicken sounds pretty good, Melanie. I haven't eaten at Carly's because-" I stopped in the middle of my sentence. Crap, now she will question my why I have left right after the show.

"Because?" she repeated. But she basically ordered me to continue with my sentence. I hate how she gets bossy sometimes. I hate the fact that she's older than me. It's just by eight minutes, but still, she's the older sibling and therefore can command me around. Geez.

"Because Fredork is an idiot," I said silently, but as perfect as Melanie is, she heard it clearly. She gave me a confused look and started to question me even more. I sighed, but started to tell her everything I was going through since my and Freddie's break-up. After she listened to me, all she did was hugging me tightly and stroking my back.

"Melanie, I'm all right. I just have to sort these things out. I promised everything will be fine at the end," I said, trying to believe the words, which came out of my mouth. But since I and Mel shared nine months in mum's belly there was no way in hell I could fool her, so she knew I had my doubts if everything would be fine.

"You know what? I will run to the store quickly and get you some of your favourite ham," said Melanie, standing up and taking her red coat. I would never say it out loud, but Melanie is really a great big sister to me, when she's around and not miles away at her boarding school.

After she left, I grabbed my phone to call Carly to tell her that I'm all right and that I made it safely home. But she actually didn't have to worry, I'm Sam Puckett. She should be worried about the people who cross path with my and not the other way around. I was the danger that people should be afraid of. I'm not really such a monster, but I like the fact that I'm different that I'm not just one of millions and millions girly girls in the universe. I looked at my phone to see that I had 6 missed calls and 6 new messages. Wow, was she really this worried? I looked at the missed calls and messages.

5 missed calls – Carly Shay

1 missed call – Fredork Benson

4 messages – Carly Shay

2 messages – Fredork Benson

I was surprised to see Freddie so many times there. Did he worry? Was this all just a misunderstanding? I don't know. I think everyone noticed that it has been really weird between me and Freddie these past weeks and that we definitively have unresolved issues. I decided to look through the messages, before I would call Carls.

Carly Shay, 6.23 PM

Sam? What the hell happened? Call me.

Carly Shay, 6.26 PM

Puckett, this isn't funny. I'm worried, please call me. :(

Carly Shay, 6.31 PM

Please call me, Sam.

Carly Shay, 6.39 PM

:( :( :( Sam, I really am worried about you, please answer me!

I sighed. I hate to cause Carly such trouble. I have to make it up for her sometime. Maybe I should take her to Build-A-Bra to fix this. It made me sad to see Carly sad, but at the same time I was thanking the Gods for blessing me with such a wonderful friend. Then I decided to look at Fredpuss' messages.

Fredork Benson – 6.30 PM

Sam, I can explain what happened. Please call me back.

Fredork Benson – 6.50 PM

Sam... Really it wasn't on purpose. I wouldn't never intentionally hurt you.

Freddie wasn't the kind of person to do this. He is kind and sweet just like every other nerd or geek walking across to world. Maybe I should give him a chance to explain everything. But I wasn't ready to see him. It's unbelievable that I would act like a weak person. That was out of character for me. I needed time, I needed to recover. So the best thing to do is to avoid Benson for awhile, it's best for both of us I would say. I dialled Carly's number and waited for her to pick up.

"Sam! Thank God! I was scared, because you haven't picked up any of my calls."

"I'm really sorry, Carls. I didn't mean to worry you," I said, actually feeling guilty.

"Freddie told me what happened to the sculpture. You really need to talk to him," said Carly, obviously wanting me and Fredork to be friends again.

"Yeah about that, I think I will distance myself from Freddie for awhile. I know he wouldn't do that on purpose, but I just need some time. I will talk to him when I'm ready."

"Um okay, whatever you wish for, but what about iCarly? Will you be able to sort this out by next week's show?"

"I doubt that. Can't you just do the next show without me? I think Spencer would be willing to help you. Please Carly, just this one time," I said, ready to beg if it was necessary. But luckily she agreed with me. I sighed in relief. After I hung up Melanie came back with my ham.

...

I have successfully avoided Benson for almost two weeks. It wasn't anything easy, but I pulled it off. It was Thursday and I had to talk to him before the next show. But always when I was unsure about something I reminded myself that I'm Sam Puckett and that if I can beat up a grown man with a sock filled with butter, I could also talk to that nub. Then I felt someone tapping my shoulder. It was Daniel.

"Oh hey, Danny, I haven't seen you in awhile," I said, glad to see a familiar face again.

"I have been busy these past days, you know," he replied with a smile.

"Me too. I have had also a pretty tough week," I said, finally talking to someone, who wouldn't bring up the topic of the nerd. But Danny seemed somehow nervous. Was he all right? Wasn't he feeling well?

"Umm... Well, I was thinking if, well... Would you please consider to be my partner for the Geography project?"

"Yeah sure, but you're new here, so you might not know. But I'm kinda famous for never doing anything for a project," I said, knowing myself too well.

"I know, but I heard also that you are an artist. So I could do the map thing and you could actually draw it. I really have no talent with drawing or painting," admitted Daniel to me. I smiled. This was something I could live with. And because Danny has become really quickly a friend to me, I agreed. I have never become such good friends with someone in such a short time. Speaking of which, I decided to call Carly if she would want to hang out, of course without Frednub.

"Here's Carly," she said happily in the phone.

"Hey Carlotta. Are you free right now?"

"Yeah, wanna hang out?" she asked. She always knew what was on my mind. She seriously is my best friend in the whole world.

"At Groovy Smoothie in ten? But wait... is Freddie with ya?"

"No he isn't, his mum picked him up a few minutes ago."

"Cool."

...

It was a nice afternoon I spent with Carls. The smoothie was delicious as always. I had a strawberry one, it was so refreshing. T-Bo didn't stop to offer us food and just all in all I was able to say that I was actually happy for those short hours.

"Let's go up to the studio to prepare for the next week's webcast," said Carly, handing me a bottle of Peppy Cola, which I gladly accepted. We walked upstairs and wrote some ideas down on a piece of paper to later show Freddie.

Freddie.

I miss him, kind of. I haven't seen nor spoken to him in almost two weeks. Yeah, I needed some time-out from him, but that didn't mean I was happy not to see him. I had to talk to him. I will, after the show this Saturday. I will be ready by then. Hopefully. And yeah, Gibby's party is in two days also. Geez, I forgot all about that. We continued with coming up with ideas, when I felt my eyelids getting heavy and closing.

I growled. I guess I fell asleep. I looked down my body to see a blue blanket on me. Carly is always taking care of me. It's nice of her that she let me sleep and didn't wake me up. I stood up and stretched my body since it got a little bit stiff. I decided to walk down and see if there's something to eat in the fridge. I felt like using the stairs for a change so I made my way to the door. But unfortunately I met those chocolate brown eyes.

It was Frednub.

"Ugh, hi Sam," he stammered, trying to look calm and collected. He failed miserably.

"Hey," was all I replied. I wasn't ready to face him. I had to get out of there. I passed right by him and made my way downstairs, when he grabbed my wrist, stopping me. I turned around to look at him, but he didn't make eye contact with me.

"Let go of my arm," I said coldly, even if I didn't intend to.

"We need to talk, Sam. I can't let you go," he said, his grip getting stronger. I tried to pull away, but no use. I started to kind of fight with him to break free. We fell to the ground and we fought for dominance. I pinned him to the ground, but he overpowered me and pushed me to the ground, pinning my wrists above my head. We stared at each other our noses touching and our lips just inches apart. His lips looked so... welcoming, I wanted to press my own against them, but I couldn't, I wasn't allowed to do that.

"When did you get stronger than me, Benson?" I said, clearly annoyed. I mean, I was always stronger than that nub and suddenly I'm not? Mama doesn't like that at all!

"I got stronger than you while we were dating. I let you always overpower me, because I didn't want to hurt little Samantha's ego." I blinked a few times. Seriously? He... let me win?

"If you promise not to run away again, I'll let you go and talk to you normally instead of like this," he offered. I nodded, because this position was really uncomfortable and I could tell for him also.

"Fine, Freddison, you win," I said, waiting for him to let me sit up. He immediately let go of my wrists and sat down beside me. We sat there in silence for a few seconds, before he started to speak again.

"It was all just a huge accident. One of Spencer's costumers came over to pick up that giant monkey and while he and a few other guys moved it, the sculpture fell. I panicked, of course, but iCarly was about to start so I couldn't tell you neither Carly about it."

He could be lying. It isn't so difficult. I mean, I've lied to Frednub so many times that I don't even remember anymore. But no, Freddie wasn't lying. He was too nice to lie to anyone even if that someone is me. He's honest like Carly and that is, I mean was the reason I loved him.

"I guess, if you buy me smoothies and ham for the next week then I can forgive you," I said with a grin. What? Mama wants something for all these trouble Fredork has caused.

"Why am I not surprised? So we're fine now?"

"Yeah, you nub," I said, feeling way better now. We both smiled at each other and then Fredifer did something very unexpected. He came close to me and embraced me with his strong arms. It was a warm feeling my body was filled with. After several minutes we pulled away and blushed. Yeah, that was awkward.

"Maybe we should go down to meet Carly," I suggested, trying to escape this embarrassing situation. He nodded and we made our way downstairs.
