Song- Soulmate by Natasha Bedingfield
Disclaimer- *Sniff* *Sniff* only in my dreams would I own ICarly…
Thursday went by way too fast. Mrs. Tyler gave Carly and Benson extra credit for having their work two weeks early, and Carly gave me a big juicy ham for helping her. I was getting nervous about my performance but at the same time excited. We're at lunch talking about choir.
"Sam, please tell me you finished your song." Carly took a small bite of her salad. I swear that girl eats like a bird.
"Ya, ya, ya, I'll just fish something up next period." I lied. Fredwad gave me a look and I shot back a glare.
"I swear Sam if you fail this year and can't graduate with your class next year…" I roll my eyes. Geesh, she such a mom.
"Carly don't sweat on it." I took a huge bite of my chicken. She signs but drops the subject. I really hope I'm not turning into a nub that gets their homework done in one day. Because really I still feel shocked I got it done.
After lunch everything went into fast forward. No joke. When it feels like five minutes it was actually an hour. Soon enough it was ninth period and I slowly make my way to choir. Everyone's there whispering and giggling. I sit down next to Carls and nervously tap my finger against the blue plastic chair.
"Okay student calm down, we are gonna start off with class with Sam performing her song." She smiles. Of course I can't have time to breath. I roll my eyes and go in the back room and grab my guitar that I secretly put in before school started. Carly gives me a confused look and so does Benson.
"Sam, you play guitar?" a familiar voice asks. Who was that? I look around and see… Gibby? He joined choir? Haha, oh my peaches, I hope he sings a song from the little mermaid since that's his cousin.
"Shut it Gibson" I spat at him. I took a deep breath and look over at Mrs. Tyler who nodded at me.
"I already gave the music sheets to Shaun, our piano player." I look over and see Shaun on the piano and gave me a slight wave. I nodded and took a quick breath.
"Ah, I wrote this song, and wrote the chords. It's called Soulmate." I roll my eyes. Some people snicker around the room and giggle. I will be taking care of them after class… I start to play my guitar and everyone that was giggling soon goes quiet.
I then start to sing.
Incompatible, it don't matter though
'Cause someone's bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do, you're not easy to find
Carly's jaw drops and Fredward who is rate in front of me, eyes go really wide.
Is it possible Mr. Lovable is already in my life?
Right in front of me or maybe you're in disguise
Ya, I'm going to ignore the fact Benson is in front of me
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
I look around the room and everyone is in shock. Geeze am I that bad? Or do I really look like a person who can't sing but can?
Here we are again, circles never end
How do I find the perfect fit?
I close my eyes at the next line
There's enough for everyone
But I'm still waiting in line
That line still slightly hurts. Slightly.
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
If there's a soulmate for everyone
I look at Carly and Frednub at the next line for some reason, and Carly's face looks like she's gonna… cry?
Most relationships seem so transitory
They're all good but not the permanent one
I really let my voice go at the next verse
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Oh, somebody tell me why I'm on my own
If there's a soulmate for everyone
I cannot believe how loose I am performing
Who doesn't long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I'm on my own
I slow down on the song
If there's a soulmate for everyone
I practically say the next line and strum my last chord on guitar
If there's a soulmate for everyone
When I got done it was quiet. I look over at Mrs. Tyler who snapped out of it and started to clap,
"Brava! Brava!" Brava? Who says 'brava' these days? I look back at the students and everyone starts to clap and cheer. The only people that aren't is Carly who is sitting in shock with her jaw open, Fredwad who looks like a deer caught in the head lights of a car, and Gibby who is trying to lick his elbow.
"Ah… okayyy." Was all I could say, and I put my guitar away and come back and sit next to Carly. She is staring at me like a hawk which I'm ignoring her eyes gaze. Benson is also starring in disbelief.
"Why don't you take a picture it last longer," I snap at them. Frednub quickly looks away but Carly still is staring. Ugh this is annoying. I pull out a fatcake out of my backpack and eat it still ignoring Carly.
"That was terrific Samantha!" Mrs. Tyler praises.
"Its Sam." I grumble but smile a little.
"That was amazing, I really look forward for your future performs." She smiles. Future performs? She is off her chiz if she thinks' I'm doing this again. Mrs., Tyler went on about how to become a good performer then Derek and Tony performed a cheesy song called Love Story, I have to admit though, Tony is really good, and Derek is really hot and amazing on guitar. After class I was the first person out the door and someone tugged on my arm.
"What do you wa-" I look behind me and see Derek. My stomach does a flip.
"I just wanted to say you were really good today." He flashes me a smile.
"O-oh thanks. You were too." I gave him a side smile. He runs his fingers through his hair sooo wonderfully. Ew. I'm being all Carly and being sappy. Gross.
"I'll talk to you later?" He asks looking at my eyes. Dang, his green eyes are like a forest of wonders.
"Y-y-ya sounds, cool." I give him a smile. He walks away and I feel so great right now.
"OH MY GOD! WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU COULD SING LIKE THAT? OR PLAY GUITAR!" I hear a screech. And there goes the great feeling. I look behind to see Carly racing over tugging Frednub along.
I shrug, "I dunno… hey let's go get a smoothie." I start to walk. She grabs me by the arm and I groan.
"Sam! You were amazing! I almost had tears in my eyes! It was so strong and beautiful." She signs.
"Ugh, don't be such a girl." I roll my eyes.
"How did you learn to play guitar?" She asks.
"Well, I got so bored at my house I just picked up Melony's guitar and taught myself. End of story, now let's go get food!" I skip off. I know she won't drop this but at least she'll quite for today. We got to the groovy smoothie and Carls went to go get our smoothies, so it was just Fredape and I.
"You were really good." Fredwad says nervously.
I smirk, "Tell me something I don't know." He gives me a look but then smiles.
"So are you going out with that Drew guy?" He asks not looking at me.
"Derek? No, why would you think that?"
"Oh, cause I saw him talk to you, and ah, assumed you two were." He glances at me. What is he my dad? Not like my dad would want to know, but geeze he doesn't need to be all up in my grill.
"Why do you care?" I raise my eyebrows. He looks up and puts his hands up.
"Whoa, I don't I jus-" Carly slammed down out smoothies happily and sat between Benson and I.
"What did I miss?" She asks. I grab my smoothie and take a drink of it.
"Nothing." I say. Fredluppe grabs his and nods.
"Absolutely nothing."
A/N- So I have this idea in my head… and I'll give you a clue 'Lucky'. I'm thinking of putting it in, or set it up in the next chapter or two. I'll give ya a hint what it is. It's a seddie moment(:
So anyways, I hope you like the song!
I try not to make Sam seem sappy or mushy, OOC kinda thing. Cause I hate when people do that, so tell me if I am or not. It's kinda hard but I'm determined to keep it Sam Puckett.
