Okay, so in this story Sam gets all OCC. But that's a part of the story so I hope you guys don't like get mad at it.

Unexpected

Saturday

Sam was pacing, dragging her black and white plaid duffel bag and a large luggage bag along with her. Her mom was already waiting in their car.

"Sam what time did you tell them to come? We need to go." Her mom said from the drivers' seat.

"I told them to come at this very moment." Sam said as she went on pacing and yawning at the same time. It was still 7:30 in the morning and she was sleepy. Suddenly she saw Spencer's Volvo pull up beside their driveway. She let out a breath of relief. "Finally!" She said as Carly and Freddie approached her, each carrying their own luggage bags, but was a little smaller than hers.

"Sorry we took so long. Mrs. Benson was a little anxious for Freddie to leave." Carly rolled her eyes and placed her luggage in the car as Sam opened the back.

Freddie just grunted and placed his stuff in after Carly's, Sam's stuff followed. They all got in the car with Carly, Sam in the Middle, and Freddie on the other side.

"How long is the drive?" Carly asked.

"17 hours and 30 minutes. But that's if we don't sleep pr take breaks. So we'll be on the road until like 6 tonight and then we'll leave tomorrow at around 6 and then we'll arrive at around 3 or 4pm there." Sam yawned largely. "trust me, it's a very boring drive. We'll be just driving through interstate 5 for like 90% of the time." Sam yawned once more and rested her head on Freddie's shoulder. Carly lightly grinned when Freddie didn't even bother to shake her off.

"That's almost 2 days drive!" Freddie exclaimed, shocked.

"No duh." Sam rolled her eyes sleepily. She wasn't used to waking up at 6.

"Where's Melanie's school anyways?" Carly asked.

"Beverly Hills. She goes to Potere Apice Boarding School." Sam yawned, her eyes drooping a little.

"Ah." Carly said, yawning too.

"You kids go to sleep. I'll wake you up for lunch." Sam's mom said from the front.

Sam nodded lightly as she finally stopped resisting her eyes as they shut close. She was really tired. Carly mumbles an 'okay' before she turned towards the window and slowly fell asleep too. Freddie meanwhile took some time falling asleep. He just looked through the window and watched the scenery pass by. After about 15 minutes of this his early morning seemed to catch up with him as he too fell asleep.

It was around noon when they stopped at some fast food restaurant. Sam's mom woke them up and they all stepped out of the car and stretched.

"Okay, so you guys have around 30 minutes to go around and stretch before we have to go back to the car." Sam's mom said as they filed out of the fast food restaurant.

The trio all walked around for a while, then decided to go to the store by the gasoline station.

They bought some water, chips, and bubble gum, and candy, for the rest of the trip. Once they got back on the car and started their trip they were bored.

Carly pulled out her pearphone and decided to play with her apps. Sam took out a sketch pad and a pencil and started to sketch on her lap. Freddie just sat there, watching Sam finish out her drawing.

"Whatcha staring at dork?" Sam asked, not looking up.

"Nothing." Freddie muttered as he turned to look out the window.

Sam meanwhile, was appraising her work. She has sketched out a boy and a girl with their back against each other, facing separate ways. She sighed and then signed her name and the date on the corner, then flipped to the next page.

"Wanna play dots?" Sam asked Freddie.

"Yeah sure." Freddie mumbled as he turned back to Sam.

It was around 6 now and the sun was about to sink. Sam and Freddie were way past playing dots and were already at their 3rd page of playing hangman. Carly fell into a nap a while ago.

Sam's mom saw the motel they usually stay in during their trips and parked on a parking space.

They all took their entire luggage up to the front counter. The trio sat on the sofa's there while Sam's mom was checking in.

"It's so weird why we're so tired when we're just sitting on a car." Carly muttered as she stretched.

"I know right." Sam said as she placed her feet up the coffee table.

"Okay, so I have two rooms. Both rooms have two beds. So I'm guessing I'm pairing up with Sam?" Sam's mom said as she approached the trio.

What? No! It must be Sam and Freddie alone! Carly thought frantically. "Uh… no! I… need an adult with me in the room. Because I… uh… have… girl… issues." Carly said frantically.

"Ohh… okay then. Carly you will be in the same room as me and Sam and Freddie you will be on the other room." Sam's mom nodded knowingly.

"Girl issues?" Sam hissed at Carly as they dragged their luggage to the elevators. Carly just grinned at her nervously.

Sam just sighed heavily as they made their way up to their floor.

"Okay, so we'll be leaving tomorrow at 6. So I you two should be awake by 5 okay? And I am expecting you two to be at their dining area by 5:45." Sam's mom said as she opened the door to hers and Carly's room.

"Okay." I mumbled as I opened the door to Freddie and my room, which is only next door to theirs.

"Okay…" Freddie said as he placed his stuff on the bed farthest from the door.

"I am going to brush my teeth and go to bed." Sam said as she grabbed her bag of toiletries and then headed straight to the bathroom without another word.

"Okay then…" Freddie muttered as he extracted his pajamas from his luggage bag and waited at the foot of his bed.

Soon Sam opened up the bathroom door and walked towards her bed. She was wearing a midnight blue tank top and light pink short shorts. Freddie's eyes weren't slow to notice this. He eyed Sam's outfit as she jumped to her bed, the movement causing her tank top to ride a little higher up, revealing about an inch of her stomach.

"I…uhm…" Freddie cleared his throat. "I'm going to use the bathroom now." He said as he grabbed his toiletries and his pajamas and made his way to the bathroom, only receiving a grunt as a reply from Sam.

Sam pulled up the sheets and tucked herself in. She willed herself to sleep but somehow not managed to be able to because of the bright lights. She would've switched them off but she was already too tired to get up. The bathroom door opened and Sam opened her eyes just a little bit and she saw Freddie just wearing his pajama bottoms, completely shirtless. Sam's eyes widened momentarily when she eyes his toned stomach and muscled chest and arms. True he wasn't exactly bulky but he was built enough.

Sam licked her lips and watched as Freddie made his way to the light switch.

"What? No nightlight?" Sam chuckled as he was about to turn the lights off.

"Ha ha Sam." Freddie said as he switched of the lights and made his way to his bed.

"Get some sleep dork, we're going to be up really early tomorrow." Sam said as she turned so that she was facing him. He had his head facing her and but the light coming from the windows she could tell that he was grinning.

"Yeah. Night Puckett." He said as he faced to the ceiling.

"Night Benson." Sam muttered as she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

It felt as if she has only been asleep for 10 seconds when her phone started to beep loudly. Sam cursed lightly as she grabbed her phone and looked at the time. 4:45. She groaned and sat up. Freddie was still deep asleep. She chuckled as she took a few minutes of just looking at him, all shirtless, sleeping.

She smiled to herself as she grabbed her outfit for today and headed for the shower. It was 5:08 according to her phone when she stepped out, fully dressed. Freddie was still asleep. She grinned as something came to her mind. She took her still dripping wet hair and squeezed all of the water out just about Freddie's face.

"Aaah!" He shouted as he sat up, wiping his face.

Sam chuckled. "Time to wake up dork. It's 5:10."

Freddie groaned as he walked to his suitcase and grabbed his stuff and headed for the bathroom. Sam rolled her eyes and started to work.

When Freddie stepped out it was already around 5:30 and Sam was only halfway done. He was too tired to notice that Sam was wearing an outfit that she usually would totally refuse to wear.

Sam finished up at around 5:40 and they decided to head off for the dining area already. They took their bags with them so that they didn't have to return back to their room. They double checked that they didn't leave anything behind and started to make their way to the elevator. Once they arrived at the dining area they saw that Carly and Sam's mom still weren't there so they just picked a table and went to get their food. At around 5:50 Carly and Sam's mom finally arrived. They all had a quick breakfast and soon they were checking out. 6:00 sharp they were already putting their bags in the car. The sun was already rising so Sam took her sunglasses and placed it over her eyes.

"Cute outfit by the way." Carly said as they got in Sam's mom's car. Carly was at the far end, followed by Freddie in the middle and Sam on the other end.

"Thanks." Sam muttered as she played with the hem of her black mini skirt. She was wearing that, a white long sleeved polo shirt, a black vest, and black wedges. Her hair was on its usual half up style and she was wearing a black and white checkered hat. She was also wearing large dark sunglasses and under that she has mascara and eyeliner and some eye shadow on.

Freddie just looked at Sam oddly. He wasn't used to seeing her dress like that, but he would be lying if he said that she didn't look nice in it.

They drove on, the trio, as usual, fell asleep during the morning and was woken up by Sam's mom for lunch. Soon they only had about 3 and a half hours before they arrived at Melanie's school.

They just entered Beverly Hills and Carly and Freddie's eyes were wide, taking in the scenery. Sam wasn't really that awed because she has been here a couple of times already. True, Beverly Hills was the place to be, the place to live in, and the place where you want to be. It was beautiful, nice, and really the place for the rich and beautiful.

"Here we are. Have a nice time visiting you all." Sam's mom said as they approached the school parking lot.

Carly and Freddie's eyes grew wide. Potere Apice Boarding School was true enough awe inspiring. It was composed of large buildings, mainly the cafeteria, dorms, gym, classrooms, auditoriums, theatres, etc. and there was a large field, with lots of trees and stone tables around it for hanging out, a football field, which is also the track and soccer field and a whole lot more. You could also see that the student parking lot was filled with beautiful and expensive cars, all of them shiny and speedy and… well plain expensive.

Sam, Carly and Freddie took all of their stuff out from the back of the car.

"Wow, Sam this school is amazing." Carly muttered. There were some students by the parking lot who were looking at the trio.

"Yeah." Sam muttered as she looked up, as if looking for someone. Finally she locked eyes with who she was looking for. Standing up the steps of the main entrance was a girl who looked so much like Sam that you would think that you were seeing double. She had a huge smile on her lips as she eyed the trio.

There she was, the one and only, Melanie Puckett.

Yeaahh... there's chapter two. So we already got to see a somewhat... change in Sam. Wonder why? Oh Well. We'll see in the future chapters!

PS: forgive me for the school name. haha. i couldnt think of anything so i picked random Italian words. Potere meaning power and Apice meaning peak, or summit. SO it like gives the school a sense of power. haha. oh well. i dont even know if it makes sense. I'm not really taking Italian... so i'm clueless. again, forgive me.
