A/N I've decided to make a few more chapters. I don't know how long the stories gonna be but I'm hoping at least 10 chapters. :) And check my profile. I updated it a little.
I would also like to say a short note: I LOVE the reviews I've gotten. They're so sweet. I can't believe this many people would review my story when it's the first one I've made and it's still in progress. You guys ROCK! :D
DISCLAIMER: I don't own iCarly, obviously. I'm not Dan! (I hate writing disclaimers) -_-
PLEASE READ FOLLOWING CONTENT: Okay. You probably wanna kill me write now for writing a huge author's note and not getting to the chapter, but... as I'm writing this, I have 48 reviews. To make my next chapter, I want 55. Pushy? Yes, very. But I love reviews.
iSwim Chapter 7
"Ummm..." I felt a little awkward after kissing a dork. But why shouldn't I be? I mean, we hate each other...or at least I think we do... I think Freddie felt a little awkward too. It was a little obvious, but honestly, it didn't matter. With being awkward, it was pretty obvious we both liked it. I could just tell. This is a little strange for me to say, but I-I-I might have developed more feelings for Freddie because of this. It was strange for me to say I had any feelings for him at all - besides hatred, of course - but this...this was just weird.
Despite what I was thinking, it wasn't really a kiss. I dunno if Freddork thought of it as one, but he just kinda saved me from drowning. It was CPR. But I doubt the "kiss of life" or whatever the hell you call it lasts 17 seconds and you feel the way I did when it happened.
"Sam?" Damn. I almost forgot he was still there.
We both got up and went closer to the chairs instead of staying on the floor.
"Yep?" I said, almost as if I was oblivious to what happened (which I obviously wasn't).
"You okay?"
"Well, I'm talking, aren't I?" I replied jokingly.
"Yeah. You're okay." He said a little sarcasticly. Then he had a more serious look on his face. "I never knew you couldn't swim."
I hated how he brought it up. "I can't swim. Is it really that big of a deal?"
"I was just saying. Why didn't you tell us?"
"I told Carly. I just didn't tell you."
"Why not?"
"I don't know. I just didn't. And you wouldn't have known if those losers weren't there..." I mumbled the last part a little, but he still heard it.
"What losers? Tell me the whole thing. What happened?" I forgot he was with those sluts and didn't know anything.
"Okay. Here's the story. I came here and I told Carly I couldn't swim so she told me to just get changed and sit on the chairs. She gave me this bikini - which surprisingly fits me even though it looked like a 1st grader could wear it - gave me sunglasses, magazines, and then I went to the chairs and she went to Mike, you know the lifeguard who's a senior in our school. (A/N For some reason, in the last chapter, I called him Kevin...he's still Mike) And then after a while these three guys, who were really ugly, came up to me and told me to go swimming. I said no and they tried like kissing me and stuff and they called me 'hottie' and 'babe' and it was really disgusting."
Freddifer cut me off before I could finish. "Where are those jerks? And why'd they go up to you?"
I was a little surprised because it almost seemed as if Freddie was gonna defend me, I guess - something he would never do before. It was like he wanted to go up to them and fight them, which, strangely, I find kinda adorable, no matter how dorky he was.
Then I started looking around to see if I could find them. "I don't know..." I finally saw them practically running out of the building. "There they are."
Freddie looked as if he was gonna run after them. For some reason, I took his arm and stopped him. I would've loved to see that dork try and run after guys almost twice the size as him, but I just wanted him to stay by me because, well, no one else would be there if I needed help. Normally, I would be fine by myself. I mean, I've been by myself most of the time - now that I think about it - but now that I know that I would be gone if it wasn't for Freddie, I need him to stay by me.
Instead of obeying me like he usually would and like he should, he ran after them. Like I said, I can't be alone so I had to run right after him.
"Freddie! Why are you running after them?"
Freddie didn't stop. He took my arm and kept running.
We caught up with the jerks, but I guess Freddie had already thought of a plan. Horse, Gangster, and Ugly were standing infront of a building. I think they were smoking, which was pretty pathetic because they kept blowing the smoke infront of each other's faces. Fredward pulled me to the side of the building so they won't be able to see us.
"Keep your voice down." He whispered.
"What the hell, Freddie? Why'd you run after them?" I whispered loudly, but low enough so no one else would hear us.
He look me straight in the eye and said, "Trust me."
Somehow, before we left, he must've thought ahead and brought his shirt and brought Carly's cover-up that was laying beside me. He put on his shirt and gave me the cover-up. I slipped it on.
He ran to them and he punched Horse in the nose, kicked Ugly in the ...place, and elbowed Gangster in the stomach. They all fell to the floor. He is still a nerd, but he did hit them pretty hard. I have to say, it was pretty hot. I never saw this side of him before. He bent down and whispered something in their ear. I didn't hear it, but the whole scene looked awesome. He walked over to me, took my hand, and attemted to just walked away, but I stopped him and made him face me.
I felt as if he was just gonna leave this whole thing behind and just go back, but how could you? I couldn't help but say something about it.
"Woah, Fredward. I never thought you could take down those guys. What came over you?"
He kinda stood there for a moment, like he was just taking in what just happened. "I-I don't know. I guess I just got mad at them for flirting with you..."
"It was actually kinda cool...for a nerd, of course." I laughed. He smiled and chuckled a little. We walked back to the pool.
"Hey, I didn't finish my story."
"Oh, yeah. So how'd you fall in the pool?"
"Well, I pushed them away and I fell in. And...I kinda noticed that you were talking to those girls. What was that all about?"
"I honestly have no idea. They just came up to me like I was some movie star or something. I didn't even wanna talk to them. I tried going away, but they just pulled me back."
"Really? It looked like you were enjoying yourself over there..."
"Whatever. Why don't we just get our stuff and just go back to Carly's apartment."
I nodded, but something just crossed my mind. "Wait. What are we supposed to tell Carly? We can't tell her what just happened."
"But, remember, we promised no more secrets. We have to tell her."
"But how do you think she'll react? What if she reacts like the first time we kissed."
"The first time we kissed was just to get it over with, and we didn't enjoy it, right? I mean, when Carly asked us Spencer came in and we never answered her... Did we like it?"
"...I dunno, did you?"
"I dunno...Well, we did or we didn't."
"Maybe we could talk about that later. Are we telling Carly about all this or not?"
"I say we should. If Carly finds out later without us telling her, she'll be really upset."
"Fine. We'll tell her."
We made it back to the pool. I grabbed all my stuff, texted Carly saying we're coming, and started heading out.
A/N How was that? Good? Bad? Review! Remember: I want 55. :)
ROCK ON MIGHTY SEDDIE WARRIORS! MWAHAHAHAHA! :D
