Chapter 21

Decorating the Nursery

Please keep reviewing. After the next chapter we go forward 4 months. Just to let you know now. I can't wait. When I skip a while it makes me think of it as being a brand new start. Enjoy : )

Sam's POV

I was so excited this morning when I woke up. Today Freddie and I were going to be picking out the colours for the girls' nursery. I wanted to be prepared. I know me prepared? Who would have thought. I wanted to make their room really pink and girly.

Freddie's POV

I was excited this morning when I woke up. Today Sam and I were going to be picking out the colours of the girls' nursery. I wanted their room to be like a lilac purple colour.

Sam's POV

We arrived at the paint shop and walked straight over to the pinks and purples. I saw the perfect shade of pink that I wanted to paint their room.

"That shade of pink is perfect. It will look so cute in their nursery."

"I thought we agreed on doing their room purple."

"No you agreed on that Benson."

I hadn't called him that in a while.

"Well what are we going to do?"

"Yeah I don't want this to turn into a big fight."

"Me either. We could paint one half of the room purple and the other pink if you want."

"Yeah that sounds good."

I lifted down two tins of pink paint and Freddie lifted down two tins of lilac paint. We carried them to the checkout and paid for them.

When we arrived home I through on some old clothes and so did Freddie. Then we began painting the room. I painted my half pink and Freddie painted his purple.

After about two hours Freddie and I were sitting in the middle of the floor covered from head to toe in paint. We had a paint fight. It was really fun. He moved over towards be and put his arms around me before he kissed my forehead.

There was a knock on the door. I got up and answered it.

"Hey Carls. Come in."

Carly came in.

"What's up?" I asked her.

"Nothing I was just walking past and thought I'd drop by. Why are you covered in paint?"

"Oh Freddie and I were painting the nursery and then we had a paint fight."

"Oh."

"FREDDIE CARLY'S HERE," I shouted into him.

Freddie came out and took a seat on the couch and so did Carly.

"Do you want a drink? Anyone."

"Yeah can I have a glass of water please?" Carly asked.

"I'll get you it," Freddie said.

He got up from the couch and walked over towards the kitchen.

"Sam you want anything?" he asked me.

"Can I have a glass of pure orange please?"

"Sure."

I sat down on the couch beside Carly.

"So what colours did you do the nursery?" Carly asked.

"Pink and purple. We sort of had a fight about the colours in the shop."

"Aw why?"

"Because I wanted pink and Freddie wanted purple but we sorted it all out."

"Good."

Freddie brought us over our drinks before sitting down again.

"So what were you girls talking about?"

"The nursery." Carly answered.

"Yeah I know. I can't believe it's only six months away," Freddie said.

"I know. The last three months have flown by."

"So how's things going with you and Griffin?" Freddie asked Carly.

"Good. Really good actually."

"We're really happy for you Carls."

"Thanks. Can I see the nursery?"

"Yeah."

Freddie and I showed Carly the nursery.

"Aw this place is the coolest, cutest place ever and look at the view."

The view was pretty cool. It was a view of the whole of Seattle. Freddie's and my room had the same view.

"I know," I said.

Carly walked over to the clothes drawer. I had been shopping for bits and bobs instead of rushing around at the last minute. There were some really tiny pink socks. Carly picked them up.

"Oh my God they are so cute. Look at them. They're so tiny. I can't believe someone's feet can fit in that."

"Freddie picked them out," I said as I looked over to Freddie and smiled.

"Well they're adorable."

Carly hung out at the apartment for the rest of the afternoon. We talked about the old times when Freddie and I used to consistently fight.

"Those were the days!" I told Carly and Freddie.

"Yeah I know. I miss it. I can't believe you never told me about yours and Freddie's kiss in the fire escape!" Carly told me.

"I can't believe you knew. Why didn't you say anything? And how?"

"I knew that you didn't want anyone to know and I thought it would be best to never say anything. Even though it was really hard. I mean you two were so cute together back then. It was so obvious you just had a crush on Freddie and I overheard you two on the fire escape. You really did care about Freddie."

"Yeah I guess I did."

"Hey do you know the way we were going to do an iCarly special and we never got round to it. Now's the perfect time."

"Yeah. We should do it now."

We walked over to Carly's apartment and up to the iCarly studio. It hadn't changed it was exactly the same as what it was when I left. Freddie sorted out the technical stuff while I looked around the studio. I missed it so much.

Freddie picked up his camera.

"In 5, 4, 3, 2," as he pointed to us after two to indicate we were live.

"I'm Carly!"

"And I'm Sam!"

"And this is an iCarly special!" we said together.

"We haven't done iCarly in seven years and thought we would do this special." Carly said.

"So over the last seven years it has been amazing. I moved back to Seattle two years ago, opened my own business, I'm engaged to Freddie and I'm pregnant with twins!"

"My life is amazing too. I'm a teacher, going out with my old boyfriend Griffin and having a blast." Carly said.

"We decided today that we would do this because we've missed it."

"And today Sam and I were talking about the old days including iCarly!"

"We've missed you guys and want to thank you all so much for watching this."

"So this has been the iCarly special!"

"Bye," we said together.

"And we're clear," Freddie said as he put down the camera.
