Awesome reviews! It means a lot to me. Sorry the update was kind of slow, school has been crazy lately. I am always writing papers wishing I could be working on my story. Who wants to right about the history of mining, when I could write about iCarly? Anyway here's the next chapter!
Avery POV
This plan was getting more complicated by the day. We were probably in over our head, but it's not like we could go back now.
"Avery, what's going on? I want to be part of you secret club too."Juliet whined.
"Juliet, it is not a club. Avery, Luke, and Spencer are all hiding something from us, and we have a right to know what is going on." Jo said. Jo had found the tent in Luke's suitcase this morning when she was looking for money.
"Our plan is ruined!"Luke said throwing his hands up in the air. He was probably right, but we should at least try and make them keep our secret. We would probably either have to pay, trick, or bribe my sisters into keeping our secret.
"Juliet, Jo sit down and listen to us for a minute before you blow our entire plan. This is important chiz, and we need your help too." I said. They were going to have to feel important if we wanted the girls to keep our secret.
"Alright, what the heck is your 'plan'."Jo said sitting on the floor of the tent. All six of the kids had shared a huge tent last night. It was about ten thirty, and Brad's kids were already asleep. Today had been fun they had all gone fishing, but it really hadn't helped the Seddie plan at all.
"You guys know Freddie and mom dated right."I said. This could be hard to explain to the younger girls, but they were smart.
"Yeah, everyone who watches iCarly knows that."Jo said. Kids were still obsessed with iCarly reruns even ten years after iCarly officially ended.
"When Sam and Freddie broke up, they were left with broken hearts. Their hearts are still broken, and we think they need to fix everything."Luke said.
"Oh, I see you guys are all meddling in their relationship."Jo said.
"Yep, and you should help us."I replied.
"You guys want Freddie to marry Sam?"Juliet shrieked.
"Juliet, quiet down! We don't want everyone to hear us. To answer your question, we don't want them to get married. They just need to talk things out, so they can move on with their lives."I said.
"I think they should get married. Freddie is nice, and he gave me gum."Juliet said smiling. In a perfect world they would get married, but after ten years they were practically strangers.
"That is not going to happen, Juliet."Jo said.
"Yes it is!"Juliet said.
"No way."
"Uh huh, they are perfect for each other."
"Not going to happen, Juliet."
"Guys that is mom's decision, so it doesn't matter anyway. Are you guys going to help us with the plan or not?"I said.
"Yes, Seddie for the win!" Juliet screamed. I hope no one can hear us because that could be a little hard to explain.
"I don't think this is a good idea, but I love being sneaky. Tell me you plan."Jo said. She is really sneaky, which could be helpful in the future.
"Phase one had already begun, we are trying to get them to spend time together alone."Luke said.
"Which is why you took the tent, and Spencer even helped you put them together."Jo said.
"Yep, we need them to be together as much as possible. Juliet and Jo you can help with that part; go somewhere with them and then ditch them." Luke said.
"Sounds good." Jo said. I knew she was just thinking of devious ways to get ditch them, and for once she was actually being helpful.
"Phase two is going to be more complicated."I said. I really am not sure how we are going to pull it off. Jo might have some ideas.
"We need to find out everything about their relationship. How they got together, how long it lasted, why they broke up. Everything."Luke said.
"Meddling, snooping this is going to be awesome!" Jo said.
"You have any ideas on how we can get this information?" I said.
"We could ask?"Juliet said.
"No, that is worst possible thing to do. Juliet you will not say anything to anyone, or I will take away you candy stash."Jo said. Juliet would never give up her candy. "The only way is to snoop, trick, and research. I'll get to work on that right away."
"What's phase three?"Juliet asked.
"Oh phase three is simple; we use the information to our advantage." I said. Jo, Juliet, Luke, Spencer, and I were all on team Seddie now. Awesome.
Sam POV
I had to keep reminding myself that there were only three days left in this camping trip. Then we would all go home, and everything would be less complicated. I could go home to my familiar apartment, and normal chaotic life. The apartment I lived in with the kids was comfortable or messy all the time. It was full of sports equipment, old papers, art supplies, and everyday junk. I miss how normal everything was before Freddie came.
I kept ending up alone with him, and it was so awkward. We had to share a tent, and we always ended up together wherever we went. Seriously it was so irritating; I never knew what to say when I was around him. Why me?
"Morning Sam!' Carly said. She was in love, and I was super happy for her. But in the morning I was not in the mood for her constant peppy personality.
"Carls, I need coffee before I can be sociable."I said grumpily.
"Morning guys." Freddie said climbing out of our tent. The last two nights we had said almost nothing to each other; we had just climbed into the tent and slept. Being that close together was so awkward!
"Hey everyone, I've got some bad news…!" Spencer shouted.
"Well, what is it?"Freddie asked. Bad news? I just want some coffee and to go home.
"Oh, yeah the forecast calls for thunderstorms today, so we might have to spend some time in our tents. I brought a bunch of cards, board games, and other things to do in case we have to 'camp out' for a while." Spencer said smiling at his stupid joke.
Thunderstorms? Really, how unlucky can I get? More time alone with Freddie exactly what I want. Almost as much as I want to give up my meat forever.
"Of course weather men are hardly ever right, so it might be sunny today!" Spencer said optimistically. If I have any luck left in me, it will be sunny today.
"Are you guys excited for the iCarly reunion show?" Jason said. He and Carly had been smiling at each other all morning; they were acting like newlyweds already.
"Shoosh yeah!" Gibby said.
"The entire country gets to meet my honey!"Carly said. Ughh, they act like that all the time!
"Awww…" Freddie said. Yeah he should try and deal with it all the time.
"Carly, could you please stop being so annoyingly sappy? I just woke up." I said. Was I a little jealous of her perfect relationship? Maybe. In high school I had always had the perfect relationship, and now the tables were turned.
"I agree with Sam. Jason and Carly make me nauseas." Spencer said looking at the lovebirds in disgust.
"You just don't want your little sister to grow up."Freddie said.
"True, it makes me want to cry, and I am man enough to admit at her wedding I probably will."Spencer replied.
"Awww… Spencer you are the best big brother ever, even if you do cry way too much." Carly said smiling at her goofy big brother.
"What! What do you mean I cry too much?"
"Let's see, you cried when I had my first heartbreak, high school graduation, the final iCarly, when I went off to college, when you found out I was engaged, and…"Carly said. I thought it was incredibly sweet how much Spencer cared about his sister. My mom had never been like that; I try every day to show the girls how much I care about them. I don't ever want them to feel like they weren't wanted.
"Alright, Carly I do cry a lot, but it is only because I love you and want you to be happy." Spencer said.
"Don't worry Spencer I will make sure Carly is happy for the rest of her life." Jason said grinning.
"And now we're back to nausea." I said.
Freddie frowned at me, and shook his head. He of all people should know I don't beat around the bush; if there is something I want to say I'll say it. Unless it has to do with my feelings, then I usually just keep it inside. When I think about it that sounds pretty messed up; maybe I should work on being more open with people.
"What are you guys plans for the future?" Freddie asked. The nub was just asking that to annoy me! Now we would have to sit here and listen to them talk about their newlywed plans. Uggh.
"My fashion career is really taking off, so Jason is going to spend some time expanding his restoration business." Carly said. Jason restored old cars, and he was the best in business. He worked his magic on my mustang, and it looks and sounds like a different car.
"You guys want kids?" Freddie asked. Spencer face turned red; he still pictured Carly as a fifteen year old girl.
"Yeah, we have thought about that a little." Carly said. "We love kids, but I don't think we can handle more than two." Oh, they were still freaking out about that.
"Guys, really that was like a year ago! Let it go! You guys would be great parents." I said.
"It wasn't a great confidence booster Sam! Plus I think with two kids it is easier to give them attention." Jason said. Freddie looked helplessly back and forth; he was always out of the loop. He never knew what we were talking about, but that is what happens when you're gone for ten years.
"What?" Freddie said. I guess I will fill him in this time.
"About a year ago, Jason and Carly took care of my kids while I was on a business trip. I didn't go exactly as planned."I said.
"Exactly as planned? It went bad! Really bad!"Carly shouted.
"What could have possibly happened?"Freddie asked.
"Remember these kids live with Sam."Jason said. Freddie's eyes widened when he realized what that could mean. Should I be insulted or flattered?
"I honestly don't know how you handle those kids Sam. They are so super sweet, but deep down they are so devious." Jason said shaking his head.
"Everything was fine until Avery spent a day over at her friend's house. There was fighting, explosions, pranks, and screaming. I am not cut out for craziness all the time." Carly said. I felt bad about that, but at lease Carly and Jason learned how kids can be.
"You weren't that bad; just work on you discipline and everything will be fine." I said. It made me feel kind of proud that I was better with kids than Carly.
"We'll see."Jason said.
I heard thunder rip through the sky, and felt a tiny drop of rain on my wrist. This wasn't the kind of movie rain where it just suddenly starts raining; the clouds slowly darkened and the rain started coming down faster. We all scrambled to our tents. It was only noon; I would have to spend hours alone in a tent with Fredward. Yay.
Yes I finished! Now all I need is some reviews.
