Chapter 36: iBubble Gum
Author's Note: This is the 100th page in the Microsoft Word document that I'm doing this story in. Just had to mention it. :p
Sam's POV:
I was at school, thinking about the camping trip we'd just gotten back from. It was fun, but it was short. Spencer promised he'd take us all again, but this time to a better place.
I got books out of my locker and shut it, and Carly was at her locker right near mine. "Hey Carls," I said.
"Hey Sam," Carly said, smiling. "Want some bubble gum?"
"Yes, please," I begged. Gum is an amazing thing to have in our school… no one knows why.
Carly looked through her small pocket book and handed me a piece of bubble gum, which I stuffed into my mouth.
"It's a new flavor," Carly said. "What do you think?"
I shrugged. "Tastes like Freddie."
Carly laughed. "You would know what Freddie tastes like."
Before I could respond, I saw Freddie walking over. "Heard my name, whatcha talking about?" he asked.
"Gum," I said with a shrug.
"Sam says it tastes like you," Carly chuckled.
I saw a smirk form on Freddie's face. "Oh yeah?" he asked, walking closer.
"I don't know, I was kidding!" I exclaimed. I then closed my eyes and tried to identify the familiar taste. I opened them and looked at Freddie. "Yeah, I think it tastes like you."
"You sure?" Freddie asked, still smirking.
"I don't know, why?" I asked grumpily, being in a bad mood because it was a school morning.
"Let's prove it," Freddie said, making me narrow my eyebrows. I didn't know what he was talking about. He continued, "You know, just to make sure it tastes like me."
I still didn't know what he meant, but I didn't have to. The next thing I knew, he was leaning down for a kiss that I gladly accepted, wrapping my arms around his neck to bring him closer.
It was pretty short, but it was intense. After pulling away, I said, "Heck, you taste better than the gum."
