"Sam, can I talk to you?" I ask her.
"Yeah, sure, talk" she replies with still glaring at those girls. Valerie moves away and I grab Sam's hand. I run with her upstairs and into my bedroom.
"What the chizz?! You almost broke my arm" she yells at me.
"Listen, Sam, I know you like Freddie, you need to do something about it before it's too late." I say trying to convince her.
"Calm down will you, it's not gonna be too late" she says sighing.
"What are you talking about?" I'm so confused right now.
Her eyes widen and she mutters something like 'nothing'.
"Sam come on tell me what you me- OMG, WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? YOU'RE ALREADY DATING HIM" I yell. My brain caught up!
"Shush!" Sam says while trying to cover my mouth.
"Sorry" I say guiltily.
Sam just kept glaring at me until I spoke again.
"Why didn't you guys tell me?" I ask upset.
"Because we knew you would act this way, we just weren't ready for everyone to know yet." She exclaims.
"Well, just tell everyone now at the party" I suggest.
"It's not that simple, Carly, as long as we have known each other we have hated one another. Do you know what people would say when they found out?" she says and I can tell she is scared.
"I know Sam, but maybe people wouldn't really care about it that much, you never know unless you try" I say trying to comfort her.
"yeah" she mutters and I can tell she is thinking of something.
"What's on your mind?" I ask gently.
"I'm just thinking, like Freddie's kind to everyone, he's everyone's friend, everyone likes him, what if people found out about us and they stop talking to him like normal. I don't want to be held responsible for ruining his social life." She says dimly.
"Oh Sam, that would never happen, Freddie cares about you a lot more than he cares about anything" I say.
"I know, he does, but others don't care, they always think of me as one of the guys and not a girl who can fall in love" her eyes widen as she realizes what she said.
"You love him, omg I didn't know that" I say, gushing. She stares wide eyed at me and then she turns around and runs downstairs. I chase after her and I can see her glaring gat those girls again. I could see her thinking deeply, which is an accomplishment for Sam. Her lips tighten into a thin line and she exhales deeply. She stands up abruptly and I can see some of the people around us look and her questionably. She marches over to where the girls were flirting with Freddie and grabs him by the collar. She pulls him into a kiss and I smile because Sam isn't one to show emotions easily. I can hear people around us cheering and I smile even wider because it looks like nobody really cares that they are different. I guess it's true, opposites do attract.
"What was that for?" I hear Freddie say quietly.
"Well, people needed to know that anything's possible" she says back while smiling.
Sam grabs Freddie's hand and pulls him towards the door and I smile.
True love is weird!
