Chapter 6:

Sam's POV:

The next morning, Cat and I were going to the mall to find Cat's prom dress. Nona was coming over to watch Lilly.

I get up, get dressed and get Lilly up, fed, and changed. Nona comes over and Cat and I leave.

We get to the mall, and Cat drags me to over 10 different stores. She finds a lot of dresses that she loves and can't decide on any.

So, instead of picking from the ones that she loves already, she takes me to more stores and falls in love with even more dresses.

Finally, after I begin to think that Cat will NEVER find her dress, she finds one.

She gets a light pink spaghetti strapped dress covered with silver gems on the top part of it with hot pink and light pink fuzzy ruffles going down it vertically on the bottom part of it. (Link in my bio)

I personally HATED the dress, but it was cute on Cat and it was definitely something that she would wear. Plus I really wanted to get out of here and get home to Lilly. I had already called Nona 4 times to check on Lilly, and Cat was getting so annoyed with my over-protectiveness.

We had been gone for over 6 hours though and it was already after 2. I dropped Cat off at Tori's because they were trying on their dresses together. I drove the rest of the way home and went to the apartment where I found Lilly, Nona, and Dice.

"There's my little princess! I missed you baby!", I say taking Lilly from Nona and kissing her head.

Lilly giggles happily.

"Thanks so much for watching her.", I say to Nona.

"Oh anytime Sam. She's a great baby.", Nona replies.

"Thanks, I think so too.", I say smiling at Lilly.

"So did Cat find a dress?", Dice asks.

"Yeah, after taking me to like 15 different stores she finally found one.", I reply.

"Sounds like Cat.", Dice says.

"Yup.", I answer.

"So any way I just stopped by to say hey & now I'm going to take Goomer to the gym to practice."

"Kay have fun.", I reply taking Lilly back to her nursery for a nap.

I head back out to the kitchen where Nona still was.

"Oh I forgot.", I sigh.

"Forgot what?", Nona asks.

"Oh it's just that ever since Lilly was born my bras have been getting too small and I was gonna stop by Build-a-Bra since I was already at the mall with Cat, but she was taking forever to find a dress and I was worried about getting back to Lilly and I forgot.", I say.

"Well you can go now.", Nona says.

"Yeah but I have to stay here with Lilly, and I don't wanna have to wake her up from her nap to take her with me.", I reply.

"You can leave her with me.", Nona states.

"Really?", I ask.

"Sure. I have nothing to do this afternoon. I don't mind.", Nona says.

"Thanks Nona. You're a lifesaver. Plus I think I'll pick Cat up from Tori's on the way home.", I say.

"No problem Sam. Have fun.", Nona says as I get my keys and leave the apartment out the back door.


Nona's POV:

Just as Sam leaves out the back door, there's a knock on the front door.

I go to answer it, thinking it's Dice and that he had forgotten something from when he had come over earlier.

I find that it's not Dice, but a boy

about Sam and Cat's age looking for Cat.

"Good Afternoon Ma'am. I'm looking for a . . . . Cat Valentine?", he asks reading Cat's name off of a piece of paper.

"Yes, Cat's not here right now. She's at her friend, Tori's house. I'm her grandmother, Nona. Is there something you needed?", I ask him.

"I'm Freddie Benson. Nice to meet you Nona. I met Cat yesterday at the UCLA new student tours. She was telling me about a vacant apartment that was up for rent here?", he responds.

"Yes. Nice to meet you as well Freddie. You're so polite.", I say smiling at him.

"Thanks.", he says.

"Actually you should talk to the owner of this building, Mr. Bosnic. He's the one who can rent the apartment out to you. But you're welcome to stay here until Cat gets back. She shouldn't be too long.". I say to him.

"Thanks I think maybe I will.", he replies.

"Oh you can come in. I was just making some lunch if you want some.", I say to him as he comes into the apartment.

"No thanks, I already ate. Nice place by the way."

"Thanks, but it's my granddaughter and her roommates' place. I used to live here alone with Cat, but then her roommate came and I moved over to Elderly Acres. They changed the whole place around since I left.", I reply.

"Cool. So how long have you lived at Elderly Acres?", Freddie asks me.

"Oh, about a year now. Yes, a year since earlier this month.", I answer.

I make myself lunch and continue to talk to Freddie. I tell him about how Sam and Cat's babysitting business and how they are both attending UCLA next year.

Then Cat gets home.

"Hey Nona! I'm hoooome!", Cat yells.

"Hey Cat!", I say walking over to her and hugging her.

"Where's Sam?", I ask.

"Sam?", Freddie questions with a confused look on his face.

He looks like he's seen a ghost.

"Yeah my roommate.", Cat answers him.

"She's parking the car.", Cat responds.

"Hey!", she says to Freddie, just now realizing his presence.

"I'm sorry I forgot your name.", Cat says.

"It's Freddie.", Freddie chuckles.

"Hey Freddie!", Cat cheers.

"Hey Cat.", he says back less enthusiastically.


Sam's POV:

I park the car and walk inside to where our apartment is, bringing in my bag from Build-a-Bra with me.

I can't wait to get to see Lilly. I grab my keys and unlock the door to our apartment and head inside.

I drop the Build-a-Bra bag at the sight before me. My mouth drops open and I lift up my sunglasses to see if the sight before me is in fact true.

I see Freddie, talking with Nona and Cat.

"Sam?", Freddie asks.

"What are you doing here, Benson?", I coldly ask.

"What are YOU doing here Sam?", Freddie asks me.

"I just happen to live here Benson!", I shout.

"Who even invited you here?", I ask.

"Cat did.", he replies.

I give Cat a deadly stare.

If Freddie finds out about Lilly, he might try to take her from me and then I would KILL Cat.

"Well I think it's time for me to leave now.", Nona says.

"Why don't I drive you?", Cat asks.

"Let's go.", Nona says rushing out the back door of the apartment with Cat.

"Why did you leave Sam?", Freddie asks.

"It's none of your business Freddie.", I state.

"It's ALL of my business Sam. Why did you just up and leave Seattle? With no reason, no note, no call, no goodbye Freddie, you just left. Sam you could've been dead for all I knew. Do you have ANY idea how long and hard I searched for you Sam?!", Freddie shouts.

I bite my lip.

"I looked for months! I tried tracking you but you disconnected your number. Probably to keep me from tracking you huh? I thought I would never see you or hear from you again! Why did you leave me Sam?!", Freddie yells.

"I can't tell you.", I whisper trying not to cry.

"Why can't you tell me?", Freddie asks lowering his tone to my volume while inching slowly towards me.

"Because I can't! I WANTED to leave okay! I didn't wanna be there anymore!", I yell at him.

Just then Lilly starts crying.

'Oh no.', I think to myself.

"Who's that?", Freddie asks.

"I thought Nona said you weren't babysitting today."

"Oh that baby?", I say playing dumb.

"That's Cat's friend Tori's baby. We've been watching her because Tori doesn't want her.", I say lying to Freddie.

I didn't know what else to say so I just said that she was Tori's, hoping that Freddie wouldn't put 2 and 2 together and figure out she was ours.

"Okay then.", he said.

I quietly sigh.

"Look Freddie can you just leave? I'm sorry but I don't think I'm ready to see you yet.," I say.

"Alright. Be that way Sam. Cat knows where to find me if you change your mind.", he says leaving the apartment.

A few tears fall from my eyes as he leaves.

I really do wanna tell him everything, but I don't wanna make him mad or upset or hate me.

I also don't wanna even think about the possibility that he could want to take Lilly away from me.

I rush to Lilly's room, hugging my crying baby tightly in my arms as I begin to cry myself.
