iWill Always Love You

Chapter 11: iAm near the end

Late April found Freddie and Carly in Principal Franklin's office. They were once again meeting with Ms. Franklin who was their landlord for their house. Carly had been going out with Johnny for a month now. They were now the most talked about couple in Ridgeway Middle School. Freddie and Bea had been really close. Carly had met her at least three times in the past month. When Freddie got to know Bea a little more, he found out that she was Johnny's ex. And she was the pier for the same reason that Freddie was there. Freddie and Bea had become the best of friends. They always hung out together whenever they could. But Freddie would always find time for Carly in his life. He couldn't simply just cut her out of his life because she was dating Johnny. It was also figured out that Johnny was going to be starring in Malibu High, and Bea was going to Stanford both in the California area. They were going to see each other a lot since they were all moving to the Los Angeles Area. Freddie walked into Principal Franklin's office to find Carly sitting there waiting.

"Are we early?" Freddie asked laughing.

"I would think so. They said be here at about three in the afternoon and it's..." Carly checked the clock on her Pear Phone "Three sixteen."

"I am telling you Jackie that you can't put a banana in a locker for three days and still expect it to be edible." Principal Franklin said. "Oh Carly, Freddie. Sorry for the delay. This is Ms. Franklin your landlord for the period that you will be living in the loft."

"Pleae call me Jackie." Ms. Franklin said extending her hand to the two teens.

"Nice to meet you Jackie. My name is Freddie, and this is Carly. It;s so nice to fnally meet you in person."Freddie said politely.

"Yes. Principal Franklin told us all about you." Carly said.

"He's told me all about you two as well. Huge fan of iCarly by the way." Jackie said.

"Thank you." Freddie said.

"By the way...is it true that your going to be ending iCarly in the next two months?" Jackie asked.

"Sadly...yes. We thought we would focus a little more on our school careers." Freddie said.

"I understand completely. It would be very hard to juggle the never ending college work and still manage to produce a webshow." Jackie said.

"Now why don't we all have a seat?" Principal Franklin said. "We have a lot to cover here."

So for the next two hours, that is exactly what they did. They talked about everything in their contract, and how they didn't have to worry about the expenses of paying the actual loft. Principal Franklin enjoyed those kids so much that he had paid for everything, But they did need to pay for all of the work they did on the house in the future. Freddie and Carly both signed the contract and shook hands with Jackie. As the meeting concluded, Freddie and Carly were walking to the shopping mall. They had loads of time. So, they thought that they would go out for dinner at In and Out burger.

"So you and Bea are getting close." Carly said as she took a bite of ehr fries.

"Yeah. We're great friends." Fredie said.

"Freddie...you want to be more than friends with her don't you?" Carly asked.

"Now that I think about it... I think I might." Freddie said.

"Oh...looks like you won't be spending as much time with me as before huh?" Carly giggled.

"Carls, I'll always have time to spend with you. Your my best friend for the love of god." Freddie laughed.

"I know. I know. It's just that with Sam in Cali, your all I got friend wise Freddie." Carly said.

"Hey...you'll never lose me as a friend. No matter how many guys you date. And no matter how many girls I date, I think we're still going to be best friends." Freddie smiled.

"Thanks Freddie. You always know how to make me feel better." Carly smiled.

"Anytime." Freddie said as he hugged her.

The next month of April flew by like a bird out of it's nest when it's ready. May followed in the same fashion. Now they were in the final week of school. They couldn't believe it. Freddie and Bea were now official, Carly and Johnny were still going strong, and Kimmie had once again freaked out about telling Gibby how she felt for him. That Friday, the senior students ran out of the school. The final exam written, and everything was finally done for them. Of course, Freddie and Carly had killed the tests both graduating on the honours list once again. As they walked home in the rain, they noticed that everything was definately going to change for them.

"Freddie can you believe it? Tomorrow we will finally be done with High School." Carly sighed as her and Freddie finished writing their speeches in the iCarly Studio.

"I know. It's so hard to believe." Freddie sighed.

"And next week, we're out on our own in Los Angeles." Carly said.

"Yeah. My mom's really happy for me." Freddie said. "I just wish I had my dad though."

"I'm sorry Freddie. I wish I had my dad too. But hey, we still got Paolo right?" Carly laughed.

"Yeah. He's such a great guy. He's like the father I never had." Freddie said.

"I know what you mean...he was so nice to me too. He's nice to anyone." Carly said.

"And now...we have to say goodbye to that man." Freddie said.

"Hey...we should get Paolo something nice before we leave." Carly suggested.

"Definately on with you on that." Freddie said.

That Friday night, soon turned into the Monday. That Monday that they were finally going to graduate. As Carly finally packed the final box in her room she shut her door.

"Just think...the next time I'm in this room I'm going to be a graduate." Carly laughed as she ran downstairs to get her hair and makeup done.
