A/N: Hey hey hey! I know what are you thinking. "This girl doesn't have a life!" Well, until the school year begins, it's pretty much true. Just be grateful that I'm updating and shut up! This chapter is kinda... I don't know, the only thing I knew that was going to be there were snowmen. Voilà, here you go. Anyways, special thanks to my beta samandfreddie38 alias Kai. I don't like this chapter, but whenever I say that, everyone retorts. Well then... enjoy!
Disclaimer: Nick gave me iCarly, but I said I don't like the episode iSell Penny Tees, they snapped, "Beggars can't look." and took my iCarly back. Damn, it was just a constructive criticism!
Kai is here! Oh my cute puppy, Kai is here! That's awesome. Did you ever meet her? She's one of the nicest girls ever. Well, she can kick a butt if necessary. That's the only reason why Sam likes her. As she told me before, I'm the only 'daffodil' she can stand. Nice to know.
Kai came to spend her Christmas holiday here. She's staying with Benson's. I know what you are thinking – Freddie and a hot nice girl who's not Sam? I thought that too, but let me explain-
"Carlaaaay!"
"What now, Spencer?"
"I need your help!"
"Of course you do." You'll have to wait, I tell you another time. I know, I wanna tell you desperately, too! Not now. Spencer is trapped in a wrapping paper with snowmen. Snowmen scare the chiz outta him! Someone is scared of spiders, someone of snakes, another one of clowns and Spencer hates snowmen. I have to admit they're pretty creepy. Those evil grins plastered on their pale faces, deep dark eyes staring at you... Brr. Just the thought of them makes me shudder.
"Carlaaaaaaaaaay! Hurry up!"
"Done!" I say as I tear up the last pieces of the wrapping paper. Spencer is such a nub. Did I just say 'nub'? Seems like I did.
"I think I'm gonna go to the market to buy fruits. Or vegetables, whatever.."
"You just wanna see Socko's sister Chiquita who sells it."
"You know me too well." He grabs his jacket and slams the door shut. Now it's the right time to tell you how we met Kai.

"Great show, girls," Freddie said as he took care of his tech stuff. Before I could say 'Sam-loves-Freddie', she said, "We know, nub. I think I'm gonna go to pee now or else..." She stormed out of the studio. There was one of those uncomfortable silences. It wasn't because we didn't have anything to say. There was one thing I wanted to talk about. Awkward thing.
"Freddie? Can I ask you a question? But be honest with me," I bit my lower lip.
"Of course."
"DoyoulikeSam?" I chattered as fast as I could.
"Carly," he gave me the sweetest smile, "of course I like her, she's my friend." Don't be a moron! I narrowed my eyes. I don't know why I asked, I knew the response already. However, I wanted to hear it. I wanted hear Freddie Benson say, 'I love Sam.'
"You know what I mean. Do you like like her?" His smile faded. He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply.
"Look, Carls, I-"
"Spit it out! No excuses, this is serious, Benson!" You wouldn't expect that coming from me, would you? Yeah? Oh, really? I'm not that bad!
"I think I might-"
"Heeeeeeey!" A short dark-haired skinny girl appeared out of no where. Great. She was really beautiful. Her chocolate deep eyes framed with black long eyelashes were warm and sparkly. She wore black skinny jeans, loose white tank top with some pattern, red unziped short-sleeved hoodie and converse. Nice. Not my style, but nice. It looked like something Sam would wear. The moment Freddie saw her, his eyes lit up. He ran toward her and gave her a bear hug. They stood there, arms wrapped around each other, talking excitedly.
"Kai! You look awesome-" Freddie stopped, "as always!" She doesn't look awesome! Okay, I gotta admit she kinda does.
"Oh my gosh, Freddie! I missed you so much!" That talk sounded almost like if they were... you know... couple!
"Holy cheese! People! Freddie Benson is hugging a hot girl! Apocalypse is coming!" Sam yelled overdramatically as she returned to the studio.
"Haha, funny," Freddie replied with an eye roll (seriously, sometimes I have a feeling that his eyes will pop out of socket), but let go of the hug. "Girls, this is Kai, my-"
"We don't care!" Sam retorted annoyed. "The only thing that goes through my mind now is that she's weird enough to touch you." Freddie gave her a look and smirked. You could see how amused he was. I started to laugh. Really, how ironic was Sam's remark? She's the one who "touches" his tongue! Did she just call herself a weirdo? Uh-huh.
"What'cha laughing at, Carlotta?" Sam eyed me threateningly.
"You wouldn't understand anyway." I stopped laughing, but a smile was still spreading across my face. "And don't call me Carlotta, you know I hate this nickname."
"Kay, Carlotta."

"-and then he put a cheese on it!" Kai finished telling her story and we all burst out laughing. Except for Sam.
"Buy me another shake, dweeb," she commanded.
"I bought you three already!"
"Another. Shake." Aww, they are so cute!
"No."
"C'mon Freddie, buy her a shake! I don't wanna see you beaten up again," Kai pleaded. "Please, for me?" Hey, that's my line! I'm trying to hate that girl, but it's too hard. She's a total sweetheart.
"Okay," he gave in. He stood up and yelled, "Hey, T-Bo, Blueberry Blitz!" Before T-Bo could say something, Freddie added, "No food on stick!"
"You guys are really nice couple," I said through my clenched teeth. I hated to admit it, but it was true. Didn't Freddie say he doesn't have a girlfriend? Kai wouldn't like to know that he's often making out with the blonde demon over here.
"Yeah, we- WHAT?" Freddie cried in surprise. Kai looked at me like if I was an idiot and smiled.
"Calm down, Benson. We don't care. That's probably the best girl you'll ever get," Sam snapped. How I love when she's jealous. This was serious business, though.
"But- we- I-" Freddie stuttered.
"I'm not his girlfriend, I'm his cousin, dummies," Kai said with an eye roll.
"I'm not a dummy! Why people keep saying that?" I shouted. "Wait. Cousin?" Eye roll. Similarity. Closeness. I really am a dummy. Sam's lips formed a smile.
"I knew that the nub here can't have a girlfriend like you," she said contentedly.
"Yeah, he can do much better," Kai smiled and winked. "Seems like a certain blondie is already falling for him." After that, she stood up and left. That was a good decision, Sam would probably cause her serious injuries. And we don't want to call hospital again. Sam punched Freddie in a stomach. Okay, maybe we'll have to anyway.
"Ow! Sam! What was that for?" Freddie cried in pain.
"I couldn't hit your dumb cousin, so I hit you."
"How does that make sense?"
"Don't you have the same DNA or something?"

Sam and Freddie are playing the videogame I bought for them last week. I hope it'll release their anger and they'll keep just making out. It's not so horrible, I got used to it. What would you rather see? Stains of blood on your couch or an insanely cute almost-couple making out somewhere in your apartment? Okay, I have to admit I wouldn't mind the stains of blood, but I'd have to clean them! The door swings open as a short brunette enters the room.
"Kai!" I run towards my friend and hug her. She chuckles.
"Hey Carls." I stop hugging her and she looks at Sam and Freddie. They're still lost in their game. "Nice that they noticed me." I wink at her and give her a bright smile.
"Yeah, but aren't they the cutest couple?" Sam and Freddie immediately stop playing and they're giving me a death glares now.
"Kai!" Sam and Freddie shout simultaneously. They come to give her a hug. Freddie's hug maybe lasts a little too long. I don't blame him, it's his cousin and they have a great relationship.
"Enjoy it, Benson. That's your only opportunity to touch a girl," Sam says with a grin. Oh, irony. Freddie grabs Sam's hand. Aww!
"Now I touched a girl again. Oh sorry, I forgot that you're NOT a girl!" Freddie snaps.
"Oh, so I'm a boy. And you're kinda pansy then."
"Take it back."
"Make me." And there they are, kissing in front of me and Kai. Sam grabbing Freddie's shoulders, Freddie Sam's waist. Oh boy.
"Hello, I'm still here!" Kai places one hand on her hip.
"This is not gonna work. We should get outta here NOW when they still have their clothes on."
