Ch 8

iHave a Bad Day

Carly and Sam returned to Carly's apartment after their little discussion at the park. Neither of them said anything the entire trip, but they did see everything the other was going through. Carly was extremely upset and was silently crying the entire way back while Sam just had an expressionless look on her face. It was rather clear that Sam was thinking about something. But Carly just was only thinking about how Melanie had Freddie and she didn't. She hated Melanie at the moment, but Carly knew she couldn't blame or hate Melanie for her own mistakes. Carly should have asked Freddie out longer ago. What did Melanie have that she didn't? Well obviously she had Freddie. But Carly would not dare say that to herself as it would be a slap to the face. So what could it be? Then she looked at Sam out of the corner of her eye. Was it possible that Freddie was in love with Sam?

No, she thought to herself, they hate each other. They live to put each other down. The only reason he chose Melanie is because he wasn't able to date me. Melanie is as close to me as he is going to get without dating me. And besides, Melanie was in love with him to begin with so why wouldn't he take the chance.

Carly became positive that he and Melanie were only dating because he had to settle for second best in his book. But why did he have to choose a girl that looks exactly like Sam? Not that there was anything wrong with Sam, but Carly just couldn't take it. It was just too creepy. Carly felt like she was in the Twilight Zone and she could hear its weird theme music playing in her head. They entered the apartment to find Spencer bouncing with joy.

"It's here! I have been waiting forever for this!"

"What did you get?" Carly asked.

"I got one-wait two? I got two?"

"Two what?" Sam asked.

"Two Galaxy Wars light sabers!" Spencer shouted in joy, "Man Freddie is going to love this."

At hearing Freddie's name Carly started crying and then started running upstairs to her room.

"What's wrong with Carly?" Spencer asked worriedly.

"She's a little upset," Sam replied.

"Why is she upset?"

Then Carly came down stairs and said, "Because Freddie doesn't have a Galaxy Wars light saber!" then proceeded back to her room.

As Carly was up in her room saying to herself that Freddie thought of her as perfection and Melanie was as close to perfection as he was going to get without dating Carly while also telling herself that there was no way that Freddie could date Sam because she is not at all perfect, Sam and Spencer were still down stairs in an awkward silence.

"I better go see Carly," he said to Sam, "Don't eat the ribs in the fridge."

If Spencer would have saw the mistake he just made he would not have said that. But he didn't, she found them, and she ate them in five minutes flat. Of course Sam would have just raided the Shay's fridge anyway, even if she didn't know ribs were in there. Then she ate more of their food, and after that she went home, and yet another average day in the life of Sam Puckett.

Spencer went up stairs to Carly's room to find Carly on her bed crying. He sat on her bed and started rubbing her head.

"I'm sorry you're upset that Freddie doesn't have any Galaxy Wars light sabers." Spencer said.

"It's not the light sabers Spencer!" she cried. "I'm in love with Freddie."

"Well why don't you tell him that?" Spencer asked.

"Because he is dating Melanie Puckett," she said, chocking in her own words.

"When did you start liking him?" Spencer asked.

"I liked ever since his accident," she replied, "but I thought it was just because he saved my life. But now I know I like him. Why is it that as soon as I like him he falls in love with someone else?"

"Come here, kiddo," as Spencer started to hug her, "Why don't I bring you some ice cream. Maybe that will take your mind off things."

He went back down stairs to bring her some ice cream. He got some strawberry ice cream and brought it to her than left her alone to think. He went back down stairs to get some ice cream himself but as soon as he was about to eat it, the ice cream burst into flames.

"How?" he cried, as he watched the melting ice cream burn.

Hey guys. Thanks again for your comments, they really mean a lot. Poor Spencer, right? Personally I feel bad about his ice cream. Anyway, please review.
