Chapter 23

SAM POV

How did we get here? I thought to myself as I sat down on the plane going back to Seattle. Freddie sat down on the aisle seat leaving the middle seat open and I just looked out the window. How did I go from a tough, single, guitar playing chick, to a one armed surfer, and girlfriend to Freddie? It's crazy. I looked out the window and sighed as the rest of the people boarded the plane.

"Are you okay?" Freddie asked me putting his carryon bag above in the top compartment.

"It's just crazy how much all of us have been through." I said turning to look out the window again. Freddie sat down and looked out too. "You know, when we first landed in Hawaii I had no worries, no fans, I was completely careless, I had two arms…" I said turning to look at Freddie.

"But…" Freddie cut me off trying to get me to stop talking bad about myself.

"But I'm leaving with fans, happiness, fears, a boyfriend…" I said smiling at him. He smiled back at me and I continued, "The only thing I lost and will never get back is my arm."

"I know but Sam.."

"I wasn't finished. Yeah so I lost my arm, it doesn't matter because I've gained so much more." I smiled and looked down.

"Wow." Was all Freddie said.

"What?" I asked looking up at him.

"Could you be any more incredible?" I smiled and he kissed me on the forehead.

"Please, save your PDA for when you're alone." Gibby said sitting down in the seat between us. I leaned forward and smiled at Freddie who gave me a wink and we settled back into our seat for the long plane ride home.

We arrived back in Seattle at about noon to find it raining. It always rains in Seattle. The plane landed and we quickly got off the plane and walked to the baggage claim. There were a few people taking pictures of us but they were not as obnoxious as the ones in Hawaii. They kept their distance and they kept their mouths shut. We got our bags and walked out to our car waiting to take us back to Bushwell Plaza, my new home. When we got to Bushwell I jumped out of the car, so happy to be home. I ran into the lobby leaving the rest of the gang to get my bags.

"You're tracking water into my lobby! You're going to mop that up!" Lewbert shrieked at me as I ran in. I took a rubber band out of my pocket to shoot him but I realized I couldn't hold the rubber band and pull back to shoot because I only had one hand. Lewbert looked at me for second before saying,

"What? No rubber bands? No meat balls? No butter sock?" Lewbert said in a more serious tone.

"Not today Lewb. Not today." I said while sighing and taking the elevator up to the Shay's apartment, well my apartment. I took the key out of the plant in the hallway and let myself in. I walked in and looked around. Everything looked exactly the same. The same bike hanging in the kitchen, the same wooden couch in the middle of the room, the same colorful monkeys hanging on the windows, the same Pear Computer on the counter, the same bottlebot sculpture Spencer made a few years ago, everything looked the same, except for one thing, me. I walked further into the apartment and walked up the stairs into the iCarly studio and smiled. I hadn't been in that room for over a month. I slowly walked further into the studio and saw my remote was sitting on Freddie's tech cart. I picked it up and hit the applause button. I smiled but made it stop. I heard the door click behind me and saw Carly standing in the door way.

"I've defiantly missed this room the most." Carly said walking in towards me.

"Tell me about it." I smiled. I looked at my remote and smiled before hitting the "Random Dancing" button. She smiled and we both broke out into random dancing. We heard loud footsteps and then Spencer yelling,

"You guys! You guys!" I turned off random dancing and turned around expecting Spencer to run through the door but instead he just ran into the closed door and fell down. Carly ran over and opened it to him moaning on the ground.

"Oh my god, Spencer are you okay?" Carly said looking down at him.

"Forget that…" Spencer said grunting while standing up. "You have to come see this!" He said turning and running back down stairs.

Carly turned her head and looked at me and I just shrugged my shoulders. Spencer came running up again, "COME ON!" He shouted and ran back down the steps. This time both Carly and I ran down the steps but we could see what he was talking about before we reached the bottom.

"Oh my God." I said in shock.

"Is that…" Carly started to say

"Yeah it is." Gibby said. Carly and I looked at each other before saying again,

"Oh my God."

OHHH CLIFFY! I know, you all hate me for many reasons. Let me list the reasons you all may hate me.

I ended this chapter with a cliffy (:

I haven't updated in about 50 years, I know. I'm sorry

This is a short chapter. I know, but I wanted to end it like this.

They're back in Seattle, without Alice, Felicity, or anyone else they met.

I'm gonna stop there. But I know you all hate me. I'm SORRY! I really am. Please forgive me. I just am having a really bad time right now because I have writer's block. URGH! I also am really stressed with school but that is no excuse I know.

But one thing I hate is that Sam and Freddie are no longer together on iCarly. Thanks Dan. Thanks a lot. All I'm saying is they better get back together or I'm going to be forming a very angry mob with a lot of butter socks. (:

Here are the questions for this chapter: Did they just leave all their friends in Hawaii? Are they ever going back? What do you think about Sam living with the Shay's? What do you think they are all so shocked about?
