AN = Hey! Here's a new chapter for you all. It's a future fic because I've been looking through my file of unpublished oneshots and the majority of them are now futures - I hope that's okay with you guys. I haven't been writing Seddie in a while, but I'm not going to end this fanfiction story just yet; I'm going to publish the forty-something oneshots I have already completed and prepared then continue to write some more. It feels like only a day ago that I started this story. Thank you for all the support throughout the year and four months that I've been writing - it means so much to me, everyone. Thank you for all the reviews, PMs, favourites, follows, role-plays, requests and inspirations. So on with the story... x
Warning: This chapter may contain a few bad words. (I can't actually remember and when I proof-read this chapter, I only found one or two words which I wouldn't exactly count as bad words but I felt the need just to warn you guys.)
Disclaimer: I don't own iCarly.
Dreamland
"Man, that movie was absolute rubbish," Sam and Freddie's fifteen-year-old daughter, Mia, said as her and her two best friends exited the movie theatre. "Why did we go see that again?"
"Because we thought it was a good idea to take your mind off your sister being in the hospital," Elena sighed.
Blake glared at her. "Dude, you just reminded her."
"Oh, chiz!" Elena cursed, leaning back against a wall. "Sorry, Mia."
"No, um, it's okay," Mia mumbled. "It's just weird, you know. I shared a room with Jennette and all; it's weird not being woken up by sappy love songs playing."
"That sounds like your sister," Blake chuckled.
"Trust me, that's definitely my sister," Mia smiled. "When I visited her the other day, she was fantasizing about her future husband and kids. She told me she was going to have ten kids and a rich director husband. She's gonna have her name in lights and everyone will say she's the best actress of all time. I guess she's just living in dreamland for the moment."
"You never know, though," Elena said as they all continued to walk back to their houses. "That might actually be true."
"Only if she gets better," Mia sighed. "She doesn't seem like herself. Yes, she's still as cheery and peppy as she can be right now but it seems like life has been sucked out of her. Her hair is falling out and she wears a head scarf thing so she doesn't have to look at her head."
"She will get better," Blake reassured her. "Don't worry, okay?"
Mia shrugged. "I don't wanna be negative about the situation, but really? It's been two years, Blake! Two stinking years! If she was gonna get better, she would've already!"
Blake was silent.
"Sorry," Mia said, putting her arm around his shoulders. "I shouldn't have shouted. I'm just annoyed and upset and worried and anxious; all those things rolled into one."
"It takes lifetimes sometimes for people to get better," Elena told her. "It's not happen overnight. She will get better, Mia. Do you really think your parents will let her die?"
"No, I guess not," Mia muttered. "Come on, let's get home. I actually have some sort of appetite today."
...
"Wait, so let me get this straight," Blake said to Mia as he watched her stuff her face with ham. "This is the first time you've eaten in four days?!"
Mia shrugged. "So what? I just wasn't in the mood for food, is that not allowed or something?"
"No," Blake said quickly. "But, um, you have to eat-"
"So I can sit here and eat in luxury while my sister is being given watery stew?" Mia snapped. "That's not how it works, Blake! I've been to a hospital and had to stay overnight with a risk of never being able to walk again; that's not as bad as Jenny having a risk of never being able to see her home again!"
Freddie walked in the room. "Hey, do you two wanna come and visit Jennette with me? Kallie and Liam are already there with Sam."
"Sure," Mia said, getting to her feet and glaring over at Blake.
"What were you two talking about?" Freddie asked as the three left the house.
"Nothing," Mia mumbled. "Nothing at all."
...
Mia and Blake entered the hospital room, followed by Freddie. Kallie was sat on the sofa with Liam and Sam was sat on the chair beside Jennette's bed.
Sam put a finger to her lips. "We need to be quiet, okay?" she whispered. "Jenny needs her rest."
Mia nodded and sat down beside Liam. "I wanted to come check she's okay."
"She's just hurting at the moment," Sam sighed, leaning up to give her husband a quick kiss. "How are you guys? Did you and Mia enjoy the movie, Blake?"
"It wasn't very good," Blake told her.
"Dude," Mia said bluntly. "The movie was crap."
"I guess that's one way of saying it."
"Did Elena like it?" Sam asked.
"None of us did," Mia shrugged. "Waste of a Saturday, really."
"Well, come on," Liam said, joining the conversation. "Of course it was gonna be rubbish. It was called 'The First Kiss', did you really expect it to be good? Now I'm glad I didn't go with you."
"I'd never be seen with you in public anyway," Mia scoffed. "I only invited you because Elena has a tiny crush on you."
"What?"
"Nothing," Mia said quickly.
Freddie turned to Sam. "Wasn't the movie you saw with Carly years ago called that?"
Sam thought for a moment then raised her eyebrows. "Huh, yeah, it was. But it probably wasn't the same one...come on, it's been years. Plus, when me and Carls saw it, it was opening night for it."
"Was it the one about a girl April?" Mia asked. "And then she loses her dog and then ends up getting kissed by accident when she slips over into the mud?"
"Yep, same movie," Sam chuckled. "Man, I really thought they were gonna stop showing that after I complained about it."
"You complained about a movie?" Kallie frowned.
"Uh huh," Sam nodded.
"Don't blame you, mum," Mia laughed. "It has a stupid name and it's a stupid excuse for a movie."
"So I take it you haven't had your first kiss yet?" Liam smirked, turning to his sister.
"Watch it!" Mia spat. "Or I'll make it impossible for you to have children!"
Freddie rolled his eyes. "Mia, what have I told you about threatening your brother?"
"Dad, he totally deserved that, though," Kallie pointed out. "He shouldn't tease Mia about not having her first kiss yet."
"Who was your first kiss, mum?" Liam asked. "And how old were you?"
Sam chuckled, elbowing Freddie in the ribs when he began to laugh. "Your dad was my first kiss when we were fourteen."
"Okay, I have two things to say. One, eww! And two, if I hear the word 'kiss' once more, I swear there's gonna be trouble!" Mia hissed, heading out the room.
"What's up with her?" Liam frowned, looking at his friend.
"I don't know," Blake said honestly, getting to his feet. "But I'll go find out."
After spending around ten minutes looking for Mia, Blake finally found her sat in the car. She had taken the car keys from her dad's pocket when they entered Jennette's room.
Blake opened the car door, making Mia look up at him. "Hey, care if I join you?"
Mia shrugged. "It's a free country, nub."
There had to have been something up because Mia hadn't called Blake a nub for two years now... not that either of them were counting or anything.
"What's up?" Blake asked after a long silence.
"My sister is laying in a hospital bed and you're asking me what's up?" Mia glared at him darkly.
"Look, Mia," Blake said heavily. "I know this isn't about Jenny; there's something else bothering you."
"So what if there is?" Mia began to play with a loose string from her shirt, her gaze dropping to the floor. "You can't do anything to change it."
"Oh, so it's something that needs to be changed?" Blake sighed again. "Mia, please just tell me what's wrong."
"Fine," Mia yelled, not caring about the odd looks passers-by were giving her. "You wanna know what's wrong!? I'll tell you what! During the whole movie, Elena was bragging about how she had her first kiss when she was twelve and what happened and all that crap. While you were sitting there, saying how you had your first kiss with Georgia Henderson, the most popular girl in the sixth grade. Yes, fine, I tried to pretend it didn't bother me, but it honestly does! Liam had his first kiss, so did Kallie, and I bet Jennette is gonna have hers before me! It's so unfair! No boy has ever liked me enough to kiss me! Geez, no boy have ever actually asked me out before they asked out Elena! I'm sick of being a consolation prize!"
"Whoa." Blake was caught completely off-guard by that comment. "So you think you're just a consolation prize, huh? Well you're wrong. There is a boy who likes you more than Elena."
Mia scoffed. "Yeah, course there is..."
"It's me, okay!?" Blake admitted. "I've always liked you more! I've always wanted to kiss you, Mia!"
"But-But-" Mia's expression softened. "You-You said you kissed Georgia-"
"I lied," Blake said simply. "I didn't want to tell the truth because I thought you'd tease me for it."
"Dude, why would I do that? I'd be a hypocrite if I did that," Mia said softly, moving closer to Blake. "So if we both haven't had our first kiss, maybe the logical thing to do is-"
"-kiss each other?" Blake finished, raising an eyebrow.
Mia nodded. "Uh, I-I mean if you want to."
"Sure, um, yeah," Blake said, clearing his throat. "If you're sure. I wouldn't want to-"
"Oh, just kiss me, you dang nub!" Mia interrupted, bringing his face down to hers and closing the gap between their lips.
...
"Man, where are those two?" Sam asked, helping Jennette sit up so she could eat her dinner. "They went ages ago."
"I'll go look," Kallie said, standing up and heading for the door.
Just then, as Kallie reached out for the door handle, it opened anyway and Mia and Blake walked in.
"Oh, I was just about to come look for you two," Kallie told them.
Blake shrugged. "Mia just needed a minute, right, Mia?"
"Right," Mia nodded, giving Blake a small smile. Everyone went back to their own conversations. Mia pulled Blake closer to her. "And hey, we never mention that again, okay?"
"Okay," Blake agreed. "But you know you tasted like ham, right?"
Mia rolled her eyes. "You're such a nub."
AN = You can definitely tell that Mia is Sam's daughter. What's your favourite part? What do you like best? Is it good or bad? I have so many questions, lol. I'm now on Wattpad by the way - I'd love it if you could check out my stories on there too please. I'm JessicaRoseHarvey and the same on Instagram. Also, can I recommend a few books? There are three fictions I'd like to recommend: 'The Colour Of Meatballs' by Invader Johnny, 'Open When' by Arietta24 and 'iGo Home' by Seddie4thewin. And there are two books I'd like to recommend: 'The Bad Boy's Rules' by Eliah Greenwood, 'The Bad Boy's Broken Rules' by Eliah Greenwood and 'Textrovert' by Lindsey Summers. So yeah. I felt the need to mention those quickly since those bad boys books affect me mentally - but it's a good thing. Thank you for reading! Reviews to me are like Sam and her ham Oh, some things never change... x
