Chapter 21

iAm here for you

~ * Sam * ~

I look at Freddie slightly shocked. I can't believe this…Freddie's dad passed away? I thought he left his mom… He never talked to me and Carly about this.

''o-oh…I really didn't know baby…I'm so sorry…''

Freddie bites his lip. ''It's okay…''

''w-what happened to him?''

''I'd rather not talk about it baby…''

I stroke Freddie's cheek softly. ''You can trust me baby…''

''I know. I just don't like to talk about it…''

I realize I probably shouldn't force Freddie into telling me things. I didn't want him to know about my past either at first…maybe he'll tell me later.

''Okay. But just know that you can always talk to me about it. About everything.''

''I know. Thanks babe.''

''You're welcome. You were and are here for me so I'm here for you!''

He smiles at me. ''I love you.''

''I love you too babe.'' I wrap my arms around Freddie neck and hug him. I lean up and kiss his cheek.

He smiles at me. I smile back at him and shiver a little. It's pretty cold up here.

''Are you cold baby?''

I nod and Freddie puts his jacket around me.

I smile at him. ''Thanks.'' Oh my god he's shirtless now. My hot boyfriend is standing outside on the fire escape shirtless. I bite my lip. ''Aren't you cold now?''

''Nahh I'm good.'' He smile at me.

''Okay good cause you look very hot like that.'' I smirk. Okay very lame joke but it had to be said, he looks extremely hot.

He smirks back at me. ''Thank you.''

''Just telling you what's on my mind.'' I chuckle.

He chuckles back at me. ''Hey babe, did you feel any better after talking to my mom?''

I nod. ''Yeah… she really made me feel better, she said that if I ever need to know that someone cares about me she'll be here in full protective mom mode!'' I smile.

''Aww. Glad she made you feel better sweetie.''

''Your mom's really sweet and amazing y'know…she really loves and cares about you more than anything or anyone…you're lucky to have a mom like her.

Freddie nods. ''I know.''

I smile at him. ''I'm really glad we get along and understand each other now. She's so sweet for letting me stay with you.''

''I'm really glad about it too baby. Yeah I'm thankful for it.''

''It's because of you though…you stood up for me when she was hating on me. That was so sweet of you…thank you.''

''You're welcome baby. I'll never let anyone talk about you that way! I'll always defend you.''

I smile and rest my head on Freddie's chest.

He smiles and kisses the top of my head, stroking my hair softly.

I close my eyes. This moment is perfect. I look down and smile widely at my bracelet. Seddie… yeah, that will be forever. We'll be forever. There's no way I'm ever letting Freddie go again.

''Freddie…''

''Yeah?''

''You promise you'll never let me go?... Even if I like…ask for it…Cause I never wanna let you go again…'' I blush slightly as I look up at Freddie.

He smiles at me and kisses my lips. ''I promise baby. Cause I never wanna let you go again either.''

I smile back at him.

''let's get back inside babe…it's almost 4:30a.m.''

I nod and take Freddie's hand, walking off the fire escape with him. I yell as I suddenly slip away and fall down, I grab the edge of the fire escape, holding onto it tightly.

''SAM!'' Freddie yells.

'Freddie! Help me!''

Oh my god I can feel my hands slipping away. ''Ahhhh!''

Freddie grabs my arms just in time before my hands slip away.

''Babe DON'T let go!''

''Do you think I'm stupid!? Of course I'm not gonna let go!''

I hold onto Freddie's hand tightly.

Freddie pulls me back on the fire escape. Oh my god he is incredibly strong!

I wrap my arms tightly around him, sighing in relief. ''Oh my god, baby you saved my life! Thank you!''

He pants and hugs me back tightly. ''Holy fuck babe you scared me to dead!'' He wraps his arms even tighter around me and kisses the side of my head.

''Alright let's get back inside now.''

I nod and Freddie leads me back inside the building, not letting go of me. Gosh he's so protective! It's actually the sweetest thing ever!

We walk back inside Freddie's apartment. Did that just really happen!? Oh my goodness, Freddie saved my life! He seriously saved my life!

I hug Freddie tightly and kiss him deeply before looking into his eyes. ''Baby you saved my life! Thank you so so so much!''

He kisses me back deeply and then smiles at me, looking back into my eyes. ''Don't thank me, you don't think I would've let you go right!? Gosh do you feel my heart?''

Freddie places my hand on his chest. Wow! Oh my goodness it feels like his heart is pounding out of his chest!

''Oh my goodness! Baby you need to calm down before your heart explodes.'' I chuckle.

He chuckles back. ''I'll be fine . Let's go to sleep baby.''

I nod and walk to the bedroom with Freddie. To be honest, my own heart was pounding like crazy too. God that was scary…but Freddie was there for me once again…how the heck will I ever thank him for everything he's done for me?

Freddie and I get in the bed, I cuddle into him and he wraps his arms around me. We both smile and Freddie kisses my cheek. ''Good night baby, I love you.''

''I love you too. Night babe.'' Wow, what a day!

I smile and quickly fall asleep.

~ * Freddie * ~

I wake up slowly in the morning and look at the clock. 12p.m. Okay I guess it wasn't morning anymore. I look next to me and smile widely at the sight of Sam sleeping. Aww she looks so cute. And so beautiful. I bet no one would ever say that about their girlfriend but I think that Sam looks the most beautiful when she's all natural. In the morning, without any makeup, messy hair from sleeping. She's just always so gorgeous.

I kiss her cheek softly and get out of the bed quietly, trying not to wake her up. I walk into the bathroom and take off my pajama bottoms and boxers. I step into the shower and shower quickly before getting out and drying myself. I get dressed and quickly do my hair before walking out of the bathroom again.

I smile as I see Sam's still asleep and walk into the living room. My mom probably left for her work already. I walk to the kitchen to make breakfast for me and Sam but then see that somebody already made a complete breakfast. There's a note with it. 'I made you guys breakfast, sorry, I still got the mom habits ;) I'm off to work. Have fun today. – mom/Marissa.' I smirk and then smile. Aww that's so sweet of my mom.

I put the breakfast on a tray and walk back to the bedroom, seeing that Sam is slowly waking up. ''Good morning gorgeous.'' I smile and sit down on the bed next to her, kissing her cheek.

She smiles up at me. ''Morning.''

''It's actually afternoon already but hey, who cares.'' I chuckle.

She chuckles back at me.

''Look what I got here.'' I show her the breakfast.

''Aww thanks baby.''

''Don't thank me, my mom made it.'' I smirk.

''Oh.'' She chuckles. ''Well thanks to your mom then. It's so sweet that she made us breakfast.''

''I know.'' I smile.

She smiles back at me and kisses me, I kiss her back lovingly. Yeah, I could get used to this.

Sam groans. ''Urhhh we have to get back to school tomorrow…''

I sigh ''I know…But it'll be fine, we'll be together and with Carly and Gibby.''

She nods. ''Yeah that's true. We can make people jealous.'' She smirks.

''With what?''

She rolls her eyes. ''With our relationship, nub!''

I blush slightly. ''Oh. Yeah we certainly can.'' I smirk back.

Sam and I eat our breakfast and finish it after a few minutes.

''So, wanna go to the mall and buy you some new clothes and stuff?'' I smile.

''Uhh huh.'' Sam nods and smiles back at me.

''Okay well I'll let you get dressed then. You can take a shower if you want.'' I smile and kiss the top of Sam's head before walking out of the bedroom into the living room.

A few minutes later Sam walks out of the bedroom and I smile at her. ''Ready?''

She nods. ''yup, let's go.''

I take her hand and walk outside my apartment with her. I smile widely as Sam intertwines our fingers and walk to my car with her. I'm actually very proud of my car, I bought it myself last year when I got my driver's license and it hasn't been broken or damaged ever since.

I open the door for Sam and she smiles and gets in. I walk around and get into the driver's seat. I start the engine and start driving to the mall with Sam.

''hey babe, I really don't want you to spend a lot of money on me okay? You've already done enough for me and I could never pay you back!'' Sam says.

''Baby you don't have to pay me back! I will buy anything you want for you. I don't care about the money.''

''No way Freddie! Hello, I already stay in your apartment, I should pay you and your mom for it y'know…''

''Sam are you crazy!? You're my girlfriend, you don't have to pay to stay in my apartment with me!''

Sam sighs. ''Fine. But please don't spend too much money on me okay? I don't like feeling guilty.''

I smirk. Aww Sam's feeling guilty. She's never felt guilty before. That's cute.

I roll my eyes at her and smirk. ''Fine.''

She rolls her eyes back at me and mumbles. ''Nub.''

I chuckle at her. ''I missed that.''

She frowns at me and then chuckles back.

We arrive at the mall and I get out of the car, walking around and opening the car door for Sam. She gets out and I lock the car before grabbing her hand again. We walk into the mall. I smirk to myself. I'm sure shopping with Sam is way more fun as shopping with my mom.

I suddenly think about something.

''Hey babe are your injuries healing well?''

She nods. ''Yeah! The burns on my back are starting to fade and the stitches on my face fell out a few days ago. Thanks to you baby!'' she smiles.

I smile back at her. ''Good! And what about your stomach and your throat?''

''They still hurt pretty bad sometimes but they're starting to get better.'' She smiles.

I smile back at her and kiss the side of her head. ''I'm glad about that babe.''

''So to what shop do you wanna go?'' I ask Sam.

''Ehm…'' she looks around. ''That one!'' She points to a clothes store and drags me towards it.

I chuckle and walk with her. This should be a fun day.
