Ch 9
iSaw Them
Freddie and Melanie were in the park together enjoying each other's company and not having a care in the world except for each other. That is, until Melanie saw Sam and Carly in the park also. They were at a good distance where they wouldn't be noticed but not at a good enough distance where they wouldn't be seen. Carly and Sam seemed to be having an intense conversation about something important, but Melanie could neither hear them or read lips. They halted a conversation for half a second and Sam looked sadly at her and Freddie but Sam also couldn't tell that Melanie was watching Sam and Carly as well. The look on Sam's face seemed to be one of hurt and of longing but Carly didn't seem to notice it. Sam turned back to Carly and they resumed the conversation. The talk didn't stay long after that, Carly put her head down in defeat and Sam started to follow her but then turned back around and gave Melanie and Freddie that same sad look she had earlier. It stayed for about a second and then she once again started to follow Carly. Melanie didn't bother telling Freddie about what she saw but she did become bothered about the looks that Sam had on her face. She and Freddie continued their stroll but Melanie was now clearly bothered by what she had just seen.
"Penny for your thought," Freddie said smiling, "Are you alright?"
"Yeah Freddie," she lied, "I'm fine. I was just zoned out, that's all."
"You know you can talk to me about anything, right?" Freddie asked, concerned.
"I know Freddie," she replied while hugging him, "I know."
Melanie wanted to tell him, she badly wanted to tell him, but she didn't know how he would take it. Freddie could be as caring as his mother at times; he was just way less psychotic than his mother was.
After their walk in the park, Freddie walked Melanie home. Tomorrow was their two month anniversary and she knew that Freddie wanted to make special and she loved him for that. But what happened at the park drew her away from what was going to happen tomorrow. She was intimidated by what she thought she saw. She had to talk to Sam.
When they got to her house they kissed each other good bye and Melanie went inside her house. Melanie went to her and Sam's room. The room was very Samish but their mom was poor so that didn't help either. She was about to sit on her bed to wait for Sam when Sam just suddenly came in their room.
"Sup, sis," Sam said as she plopped on her bed.
"Hey, Sam," Melanie returned, "I need to talk to you."
"Do you need someone to disappear?" Sam asked hopefully.
"No."
"Then you're wasting my time," Sam snapped.
"Sam this is important."
"This had better be good, Melanie," Sam growled.
"Sam, do you like Freddie?"
Sam just burst out laughing.
"You-" Sam tried to say through her laughs, "You think-You think I like Freddork, the king of nubs?"
Sam was laughing so much she rolled off her own bed and onto the floor.
"Sam, I saw you and Carly at the park earlier today."
Sam instantly stopped laughing and looked at Melanie with wide eyes. Melanie sure had Sam's attention now.
"You what?" Sam asked.
"I saw you and Carly at the park having a discussion about something and I saw you look at Freddie and me twice. So I will ask my same question again and I want to know what you two were doing."
"Carly was spying on you and Freddie. I was there to get her to quit." Sam admitted.
"Carly was stalking us?" Melanie asked.
"Well she was stalking Freddie in particular." Sam replied.
"Okay, now answer my second question."
"Which was?" Sam asked
"Do you like Freddie?"
"No," Sam simply said.
"Sam, I saw those looks you gave us." Melanie said.
Sam's eyes widened even more than they did before. She was caught, but she wasn't about to give in to Melanie.
"No," Sam repeated, "I do not like the king of dorks."
"Okay Sam," Melanie said, "Do you want to go to Carly's?"
"Okay," Sam replied, "let's go."
Melanie then knew what she had to do. She was going to hate herself for the rest of her life, but she had to do this for Sam's sake.
What is Melanie about to do? Well I know, and if you have been catching on to the story you know what's about to happen too. Anyway, whatever you do DON'T bring a monkey to a toilet bowl. For some unknown reason the monkey will speak Spanish. I will put up the next chapter asap. Review?
