Author's Note: Hello people of the world! (Wow, it's been a long time since the last time I said that here XD)
Anyway, here it is! A new chapter! =D (Finally XD)
lol, I don't have much to say, so let's go on with what's important, shaw we? =)
Disclaimer: Bob has been a little bit depressed lately after he got kicked out of that cool dance club in Hawaii, because apparently chinchillas aren't allowed to dance the Macarena with only a skirt on, so he hasn't been much helpful lately... Oh, well, I guess I'll just have to wait until he gets better to put him back to work and get Dan to hand over iCarly to me =P (And for the slow ones: I don't own iCarly! XD)
Enjoy ;)
Chapter 15: Panicking
Freddie's POV
I left Carly's apartment and walked across the hall hurriedly. After unlocking the front door, I walked inside my own apartment and closed the door silently behind me. And like always, my mother was already there, waiting for me.
"My little Freddie-baby, where were you? I was worried, you said you'd be home by ten! And it's already two past ten! I was already going to call the police to go after you! And you didn't even call me to say that you were going to stay at Carly's for a little bit longer!"
"Mom, I'm only two minutes late!" I tried to make her drop it, but she wouldn't.
"But these two minutes seemed like two years for me!"
"Mom, I'm fine alright?" I said and walked out of the room irritated, leaving my mother staring blankly at the point I had just been standing at. I walked inside my room and closed the door shut right behind me, and then dropped myself on my bed.
I seriously wasn't in the mood for talking, all I wanted was to be alone for some time and think, try to understand what had gone on tonight.
Both girls had been acting pretty weirdly lately, I couldn't deny that. And today, I'm absolutely sure that Carly was hiding something from me. Well, firstly because Carly is the worst liar in the whole world, so it wasn't difficult for me to see that she was lying, and also, she seemed pretty nervous, so all that was leading me into thinking one thing: she's hiding something from me.
But I had no idea what it was…
Carly's POV
I went to bed early that night, and I stuffed Sam's notebook inside one of my drawers. I didn't open it up, meaning that I didn't read anything that there's inside it. Even though I'm almost dying to do that, I really wouldn't feel comfortable about it, because I don't think people should look at other people's personal stuff, even if it's my best friend's, who shouldn't be hiding anything from me…
I stopped thinking about that, because if I went on, I knew I'd probably open that drawer right now and read the notebook, and then, after closing my eyes and waiting some minutes, I finally fell asleep.
Sam's POV
When I woke up the next morning, the first thing I did was get ready for school as fast as I could and head to Carly's. I knew I'd not be able to wait until after class to get the notebook back, and I couldn't ditch today's classes because four of my teachers said that if I ditched their classes one more time they'd fail me, so… Well, you got the idea.
Carly's POV
Spencer was making breakfast happily when I walked down the stairs to the living room the next day after taking a shower. He was singing a song for the bacon happily as he fried it. And yes, you heard me right, he was singing a song for the bacon, not about the bacon. Anyway...
I was stuffing some things inside by school bag, including Sam's notebook. I had decided to hand it back to her at school, and say that I just found it lying on the iCarly studio floor, which wasn't really a lie…
But, well, things didn't go exactly as I planned, mainly because I'm not really the smartest person in the subject of thinking fast. I mean, when I try to do that, I always end up doing something stupid, and that's exactly what happened.
Well, first of all, I want to defend myself. When I get nervous, I usually do dumb things, okay? It's normal for everyone to do dumb stuff when they're nervous… especially when their best friend walks inside your house without even knocking and you're holding the notebook that possibly contains something that they want to keep from you, and you act completely without thinking.
So that's basically what happened… Sam walked in when I was holding her notebook, and the first thing I could think of when I realized she was looking down at her phone and was listening to music and not paying attention to me at first was… well… throwing it somewhere behind me, but I didn't dare to look at where it had landed.
Okay, I know that wasn't the best idea of something to do in that situation but… well, look at the bright side, Sam didn't realize what I had just done. She looked up from her phone two seconds after I heard the notebook landing somewhere, and I tried to stay calm and put off a normal face…
"Hey Carls" She said, putting her cell phone away into her pocket.
"Oh, hey Sam… what are you doing here? I mean… you didn't say you were coming here early for breakfast"
"I just felt like staying away from my mom today, she has a 'friend' over and I don't really want to stay there anymore" She said, adding the air quotes when she said the word 'friend'.
"Okay then, Spencer is making breakfast right now and I think-" I started, but in that moment Spencer's phone started ringing and the song Joke is On You by Nikki Watkins filled in the air. He ran towards the living room and grabbed his phone from the coffee table, where it had been since I walked down here, and then answered the call, but not before almost dropping the phone. It seemed like he had been expecting someone to call him, and I wondered who it was…
"Hey Socko!" He said enthusiastically, and after a short pause, he resumed talking. "No way! You're down in the lobby with it right now? I'm going down in the elevator! I'll be there in twenty seconds!" He said, and hung up hurriedly.
He ran to the elevator and started pressing the elevator button several times.
"Spencer, what's going on?" Sam asked curiously, staring at him amused.
"Socko is down in the lobby with something that I've been dreaming about having for a long time! I've waited for this moment since I was four years old!" He answered, and as he did, he was jumping in the same place, waiting for the elevator to arrive.
"But what is it?" I asked, kind of afraid of what it could be. Something that Spencer had been dreaming with since he was four years old? Yeah, that sounded a bit dangerous. But Spencer didn't reply it right away, because suddenly the elevator arrived, and he jumped inside it immediately and then started pressing one of the buttons several times, just like he had done before.
"I can't talk now! See ya later Carly! Sam!" He said, and the elevator doors closed shut.
"I wonder what that could be…" Sam said and threw herself on the couch. "So, is breakfast coming or not?" She asked lazily, looking up at me, and I chuckled at her.
"Spencer was cooking it, but now he's down at the lobby…" I started, but then Sam stood up from the couch slowly.
"Well, while you finish breakfast, I'll go upstairs to your room to grab a jacket for me because I'm freezing here" Sam said, and made her way up the stairs, which left me standing alone in the center of the living room.
I wondered if I should go after her, because, well, after all, I kind of knew what she was going to do upstairs, and it had nothing to do with grabbing a jacket in my room. Or at least that was what I thought so anyway. I decided to just go up the stairs after her silently, just to check if she was really going to my room, and if she didn't, I'd know that she really wasn't going upstairs to grab a jacket.
I walked up the stairs silently but quickly, and when I reached the second floor, I saw that Sam wasn't in my room. Then, I decided to go up to the iCarly studio.
Freddie's POV
"Hey Carls" I called as I walked inside the Shay's apartment. I got ready for school earlier today because of my mother. She was still a bit angry at me 'because of the way I treated her yesterday', and because of that, I wanted to leave the apartment as soon as possible today, so I decided to go across the hall to Carly's apartment, but there was no one in sight when I walked inside.
I figured she was still upstairs and would be down here soon, because Carly sure wouldn't like to be late for school, so I decided to wait for her. I started walking towards the kitchen because I smelled bacon coming from there and so I could check if they had already eaten breakfast or not, when something caught my eye.
On the fruit bowl, right next to the computer, there was a… notebook? What could a notebook possibly be doing there? I walked towards it and grabbed the notebook, only to find out that it was Sam's. I could tell that because it was written 'Property of Sam Puckett, read it and die' on the front cover.
