Hi Seddie Fans! Please don't be made about the long time since an update. I don't really know why I haven't updated in so long. I keep opening the file and thinking I should write more but then close it and carry on with something else. I have no excuse so 'm expecting this story to no longer have people read it but I might as well update since I have written this.

I hope you enjoy!


Chapter 5: Am I going soft?

Sam's Pov

I have never been this happy in my life. Don't tell Freddie that he will get a big head. But it's true, The Sam Puckett has gone soft. But only in private, I do have a reputation to protect here. We have been secretly dating now for over a month. For our one month anniversary Freddie set up his apartment like he did for our 'first' date. There were candles everywhere, roses, and he had rented my favourite movie that wasn't a horror movie, he said that they might bring down the tone. But to be completely honest we didn't really watch any of it, if you know what I mean. So things are going great. Well, I use great in terms of me and Freddie, but everything surrounding it isn't.

So not only do I have Carly constantly wanting to set me up on dates, which we had words about and she has calmed down to an extent but she has her slips. I also have to deal with people questioning why I look happier than usual, why I am being nicer to Freddie, and why I am not around Carly's as much anymore. I don't understand the Freddie one because I always thought I was being just as mean to him as I was before but apparently I'm lovely to him now, I should probably ask him to amp up the dork when we are with other people so I want to hit him more. Also I need to start controlling the happiness, because anyone that knows me knows I spend most my time with a resting bitch face except when I am eating but now I smile. Like what is wrong with me. Oh who am I kidding I am becoming soft in private and in public. Like take last week it was the day after our month anniversary and of course I was happy but I'm not very good at hiding it apparently.


Last Week:

I walked into school the morning after our monthiversary, ah man I sound like Carly, and anyway I walked into school like I normally would but apparently something was different. I looked around and people were staring at me and quietly whispering, now this doesn't normally bother me but it was kind of off putting. My suspicions we confirmed when the big sack of potatoes came up to me. "Sam, why do you look so happy. You're actually smiling…wait have you done something to my locker? Oh nooo," He didn't even let me reply he ran off screaming thinking I had done something to mess with him, which I probably will now, he has basically said for me to. Oh I'm getting side tracked, I was walking to my locker, and I started thinking about last night, it was so romantic it was just like our first 'date'. I finally reached my locker "Hey Carls"

"Hey Sam" She said before looking up from her text book, "Sam is that you, your smiling. Wait did you have fried chicken for breakfast again because I have told you that isn't a good meal to start your day off with."

"What No, and I'm not smiling, why would I be. See no smile." I said as I focused on frowning.

"You're doing it again. If it wasn't chicken, what made you so happy? Not that it's a bad thing, it's nice to see you smile." Wait I'm doing it again, I'm not even noticing myself smiling, what it wrong with me?

If I think about it I know what is making me happy but it's not like I can just come out and say that, come on Puckett you're a class A liar think of an excuse. "Oh last night my mom actually came home sober and not with an idiot so we were able to watch Surgery fails together it was really nice, that must have had more of an effect on me than I thought". Honestly my mom is getting better she doesn't bring in sleazes as much and that did happen just at the weekend not yesterday.

"Oh wow, that's awesome. It makes sense that that would make you happy because of your rocky relationship."

"Yeah,"

"Morning Girls." Freddie just arrived, I have to make sure I don't smile more; that would definitely give our cover away. "Hey Freddie, have you noticed Sam looking happier lately?"

"Oh has she, no I haven't noticed? I wonder why she looks so happy, something wonderful and amazing must have happened in her life." He gave me a cocky grin, how can someone be so frustrating and sexy at the same time. Ugh don't think about that you will start smiling again. I glared at him but when Carly looked down I poked my tongue out at him, I may be in love with the boy but I'm still me. "Well I might be happier but it's none of your business, you can just enjoy me not hitting you as much today because I'm apparently in a good mood."

"Really, I get to have a break when Sam is happy, what can I do to make this a regular occurrence?"

"You…Make me Happy? Ha. Unless you are bent over in excruciating pain you will never be the cause of my happiness." I wink at him just to let him know I don't mean it. "Ok that's enough you two. Anyway I'm going to run I'm meeting Cameron at his locker don't kill each other while I'm gone. See you in class Freddie." Carly said while packing up her stuff and walking off in the other direction.

I looked around to see if anyone was watching us, the coast seemed to be clear, and so I inched forward to my boyfriend. "So Miss Puckett what is the real reason for this over happiness? " He gave me a sly smirk, "Oh I don't know just some guy cooking for me."

"Oh really and who is this mysterious chef?"

"Oh I don't think you know them." Somehow through our teasing we had gotten even closer together and were practically on top of each other. I looked down and saw how close we were "Um should we go somewhere more private?"

"Good idea meet you at the usual place? We have about 15 minutes till class starts."

I nodded and turned around to walk the other way, full well knowing Freddie was watching me leave. I finally got to the abandoned classroom we were meeting at. No one ever really came back here now, I used to always come here to skip lessons but now I have some company when I come here. One of the best things about this room you can get to it from four different locations of the school so Freddie and I are never spotted coming here together. "Hey" I turn around to see that Freddie had just walked in, "Hey yourself." He walked over to me and the next thing I know is we are in the middle of a heated make out session. "Dam I have been wanting to that since I saw you this morning." Freddie said after we broke the kiss. I gave him a huge grin, "dittio".

After at least 10 more minutes of kissing we broke apart knowing we needed to start thinking about going back to school. "So why was Carly going on about you being happy this morning? I didn't think that was a big deal." We were currently sat in the corner with my head on his chest and his arm around me.

"Well I think it has to do with the fact I always have a constant resting bitch face on rather than a smile. And lately cos of some nub I can't stop smiling and being happy."

"Aww I make the unbreakable Sam Puckett Happy. That is a great achievement."

With a straight face I turned to Freddie "I wasn't talking about you nub." Fear flashed across Freddie's face, while a smirk came across mine. "What..wha..wait.. You horrible horrible person. You know how gullible I am. Why?" I just leaned over to him chuckling and kissed him. "Cos it's fun"

After a few more minutes we had to leave lessons were about to start and if we didn't leave now we would be late, and Mr Punctual here can't have that. "So Study hall?"

"See you there." He gave me another quick kiss and left the room. The rest of the day Carly kept giving me weird looks. She obviously didn't buy my mother being nice to me causing me to be so happy. I don't know I thought that was a good excuse. It was nearly the end of the day and Carly was getting on my last nerve. "Carly will you stop staring at me!"

"What I wasn't staring at you.." I gave her a long cold stare, "Ok I was but I just don't understand. I know you said it was your mom but when she has been nice to you before it has never caused this reaction."

"So maybe I just believe it more this time."

"Right… I still don't believe you. I will find out I always do." That sent a chill down my spine. One thing that Carly is very good at is never letting things go until she gets her way. So that freaked me out. I would have to talk to Freddie about this and find out ways to make me less happy; and especially when he is around.


So now not only do I have to deal with hiding my relationship I have to deal with hiding my happiness. It's not a really good situation, it's times like these that I feel like we should just come out with it and tell people we are together, but then I freak out thinking about people's opinions and judgements and decide keeping it quiet is best. I just hope it will get better.


I hope you enjoyed that update I will try and update sooner next time

So Bye for now x
