#5-Guitar:

"Why am I doing this again?"

It was a typical Wednesday afternoon at Carly's place. Carly had to stay after school for something which left Sam and Freddie with nothing to do. Sam wanted to throw fat cakes at hobos but of course Freddie refused and decided just to watch t.v at Carly's house.

After two hours of random cartoons and other weird shows, Sam gave up and pulled out Carly's gaming system: A Game Sphere. Freddie stared at her curiously as she went to the closet and pulled out a drum set and guitar.

"Sam, please! Why am I doing this?" Freddie repeated, as Sam adjusted the strapping on the guitar.

"Just relax, will yeah?" Sam replied bitterly, moving the strap until she was pleased with the position. She went to Freddie who was now standing and placed the strapped around his shoulder. She guided his hands with her own as she showed him how to control the guitar. Her hands were warm.

"There," Sam said. Freddie stared at himself and then at Sam.

"Okay? Why-"

"We're playing Band Hero and that's final! No backing out on this Benson," Sam said, grinning. Freddie gulped. He never played Band Hero before and didn't want to embarrass himself, especially in front of Sam.

Sam chose the song 'When You Were Young', by The Killers (A/N: My favorite band!). Her difficulty was expert. Freddie panicked.

"Um..."

"What?"

"Well, I-I'm not v-v-very good at this," Freddie stammered. Sam sighed.

"Fine! Just choose easy," Sam said. Freddie did so and the song started.

The first note was green; Freddie missed.

"Oh great," Sam muttered under he breath. The song kept going. Sam was hitting each note with her drums while Freddie was struggling. He kept forgetting to hit the note when stringing the guitar. He was soon kicked off stage.

"Argh! Look what you did!" Sam yelled, hitting his head with her drum sticks.

"I'm sorry! I just feel...uncomfortable playing the guitar this way," Freddie said, rubbing his head.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, I want to play the guitar like this," Freddie said, removing the strap and flipping the guitar the opposite way. Sam tilted her, staring at the new position.

"So you'll flip the notes to a lefty mode?" Sam asked.

"No, just play it this way," Freddie said, shrugging. Sam rolled her eyes.

"Fine, but I blame you if it's worse this time," Sam warned. Freddie sighed as Sam restarted the song.

"Wait! I want to play the song on hard," Freddie said, smirking at Sam.

"No!"

"Yes! Now let me go back to the menu and change the difficulty," Freddie argued. Sam glared at him and then at the screen. She knew that they were going to get kicked off stage so what was there to lose.

"Fine," Sam mumbled. Freddie smiled and changed the difficulty. Sam knew that playing the game was a bad idea so why did she? Just for entertainment? Either way, she was having no fun with her dork enemy.

The song started. Sam waited for Freddie to miss that first note and for everything to collapse. He didn't. He hit it perfectly, even using the whammy. The two played their instruments. Freddie was excellent, hitting every note. Sam was impressed and messed up a few times, staring at his screen. He got star power during his solo. His fingers ran across the buttons on the guitar easily, hitting each note.

When the song ended, Freddie checked each other's scores. Freddie had gotten a 100 percent while Sam got a 96 percent. He beat her, even at her own game. He grinned at her as she stared in shock and anger at the screen.

"Well, that was fun," Freddie said simply. Sam glared at him but that didn't scare Freddie, he was too happy.

"You've played this game before, haven't you?" Sam asked, her voice bitter.

"Nah. Beginners luck," Freddie said, shrugging. Sam turned off the game and threw Freddie's guitar out the window.

"You just love doing that to me, don't ya? You always act like a preppy getting a popular date whenever you win. Well guess what, I always win! Even when you win, I always will be a winner and you won't! You're not supposed to win. You're a worthless nub who will never get the girl and will never accomplish anything in life because I'll always be ahead of you. You're pathetic, just like you're father!" Freddie looked hurt. No, he was devastated at the words that Sam spat out at him.

Sam was beat red in anger, staring straight in his eyes, trying to find the true nub he was; cold and mean. But no, there was none of that. Only a heart that gave so much for others. It was a heart that was never used for her circumstances. Yet that heart she always wanted to be seen from anyone to her. But now she realized she broke that heart.

Sam backed away, and ran out of the apartment. Freddie sat on couch and rubbed his forehead in agony. Her words hurt him.

Carly entered her home, tossing her bag on her couch and went to her closet to put her jacket away.

"Freddie, where's my guitar?"


Number 5 DONE! Sorry for the mix up with Pirates and Guitar. I thought Pirates were #4 but oh well. Not a happy ending but Sam and Freddie are slowly liking each other. Freddie being hurt by her words and Sam being guilty.
