Sam waited anxiously in the waiting room of the hospital. Her head was hurting and she was starting to feel dizzy. Carly, Spencer, and Freddie were all there.
"It'll be okay, Sam." said Carly. "You'll be asleep the whole time."
"Yeah, but I'll never be able to eat meat again!" she complained.
"But you'll be nicer!" Freddie reminded her.
"Why, because I'm not nice already?" she said.
"No, I meant-" Freddie started, but a nurse interrupted.
"Puckett, Samantha!" she called, and Sam followed. "Right this way."
Sam got up and followed the nurse. Carly, Spencer, and Freddie stayed in the waiting room.
"I hope she'll be alright." Carly said anxiously.
"She'll be fine." said Spencer. Freddie didn't say anything at all. He just sat there. He was having flashbacks….
Sam had just thrown an apple at his face. "Sam!" he said.
"You should've asked for a muffin." said Carly.
….
"You know, when a girl's constantly ripping on a guy it just means she has a crush on him." Freddie said.
"Yeah, but I wasn't ripping on a guy, I was ripping on you."
…
"Wanna kiss me?" Freddie asked.
"Kiss you? I'd rather…..not at this time, but I appreciate your generous offer."
…
"Is that a new shirt? I don't like it."
"I don't have to take that!"
"Yeah you do."
…
"Unbelievable!"
"I know, can you believe this?"
I said, unbelievable!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you said you were doofy and annoying!"
…
"Sorry, I lost my cool for a second there."
"You can't lose what you never had!"
"FREDDIE!!!!! Wake up!" said Carly. Freddie opened his eyes.
"You fell asleep!" said Spencer.
"Obviously." said Carly. "We need to go to the gift shop here to get Sam some flowers or something."
"Okay."
He got up out of the chair he had fallen asleep on and walked to the gift shop. There was a whole section of flowers. Carly picked out some pink and red flowers. "How about these?" she asks.
"Those are pretty." said Freddie, not wanting to hurt her feelings. "But I think Sam would like these better."
He picked up a bouquet of blue and orange flowers. "Blue is Sam's favorite color."
"Really? How did you know? Never mind, these are perfect. Good choice Freddie!" she exclaimed. They paid for the flowers and went back to the waiting room. Spencer was building a tower out of Doritos from the vending machine.
"Hey Spence." Carly said, and Spencer jumped, nearly knocking his sculpture down.
"Oh, hey Carly." He looked at Freddie, holding the flowers. "She'll like those."
"Freddie picked them out." said Carly. Freddie looked at the ground so Carly and Spencer couldn't see him start to blush. Carly, luckily for Freddie, dropped the subject.
"Do I even wanna know?' she said, staring at the tower.
"Most likely no." he said.
2 hours and 18 bags of Doritos later…
"Spencer Shay," said the nurse, "You can come see Sam now."
Freddie jumped out of his seat. Carly and Spencer got up more slowly, stretching. They followed the nurse to the room where Sam was. The nurse stopped in front of the door.
"Remember, Miss Samantha just had a major operation, so be very quiet. Don't make her laugh too hard." she reminded them.
"We won't." they all agreed, then the nurse opened the door. Sam was lying down in a white bed. She smiled weakly. Freddie was the first to her bedside.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"I'm really tired, but other than that, I've never felt better."
"Great." Freddie said, and grinned. He was relieved to know that Sam was okay, since she would never have been here if it wasn't for him. He handed her the flowers.
"For me?" He nodded. "Thanks, Freddie, blue and orange are my favorite colors."
"They're from all of us." said Carly, who just got there.
"Thanks, guys," she said. "I love them." She smiled right at Freddie, who felt a warm, fuzzy feeling rush over him.
"I'm going to have to stay here over night." she said. "You guys can visit in the morning.
"Okay." they all said. After they talked for a while, the nurse came in and told them to leave. The whole ride home, Freddie couldn't stop thinking about Sam. I guess this means I'm over Carly, he thought.
