Chapter 8:

Freddie wakes up to something quite startling. He is currently spooning Sam Puckett. He is unsure of so much, what time is it, where are they, does she know she's doing this, and so many other things are racing through his head. But all these thoughts are silenced when she shifts in her sleep and moves even closer into him. He immediately notices two things. One is that he will no doubt be murdered when she wakes up. Two, is that her butt is pressing right on his… 'middle.' The second he notices this his blood flow heads south, this of course increases the sincerity of the first thing he noticed. He hated to even think the word but he can't help it. He had a… a… a boner, and it was pressing into Sam. He immediately cursed his hormones to hell and tried to think of a way out. He lifted his head to look around the room but only saw two eyes looking right at him.

"What's up?" Fred says.

"Shhh." Freddie shushes him urgently.

"What?" Fred whispers.

"I'm spooning Sam." Freddie whispers back, panic in his voice. Fred just looks at him for a few seconds.

"I don't see the problem here." Fred whispers again.

"It's a problem because I have a 'B' word." Freddie says, trying to avoid the word as much as possible.

"You really shouldn't call her that."

"Not that 'B' word, a boner and Sam's butt is pressing into it."

"I doubt she'll notice it through two pairs of jeans." Fred says calmly. And lays his head back down next to Carly. The two of them somehow moved to the horizontal position during their nap.

"Um, Fred?" Freddie whispers again with worry still in his voice.

"What?" comes the muffled whisper from where he buried his face into the couch.

"Sam and I both had Gym first period." Freddie says to him.

"So?"

"So, we're both wearing gym shorts." Fred shoots up, slightly disturbing Carly.

"Go back to sleep." Fred commands.

"What?"

"Go back to sleep. If she wakes up and you're awake and you have a… boner she will kill you. If you're asleep, you can defend that it was a dream you were having." Freddie nods and lies his head back down. Fred does the same and the two drift off to sleep. However the two didn't notice that Sam was awake. When she stirred earlier she was first coming out of her dreams, she was about to talk when she felt the poke. She stayed silent and waited to see if Freddie was awake and sure enough he started to ask Fred for help. She waited for the two boys to go back to sleep before she slowly got up from the chair. The 'poke' from Freddie had already gone away, but she waited to be sure. She gets up from the chair and creeps over to Carly who is lying next to Fred. She covers Carly's mouth and gently shakes her shoulder. Her eyes flutter open and look right at Sam. Sam puts a finger to her lips, signaling her to be quiet, then points up stairs. She takes her hand off her friends mouth walks up the stairs not even checking to see if Carly is following. She reaches the studio, and opens the door. They walk in and Carly immediately asks questions.

"Sam, why did you bring me up here?" she asks when the door is closed.

"You and Fred have slept next to each other already right?" Sam answers her question with one of her own.

"Well, yeah a few times, why?" Carly inquires.

"Have you two ever… ya'know, done it?" Sam asks unsure of how Carly would respond.

"Done what?" Carly asks blankly.

"You know… IT." Sam says and makes an odd gesture with her hand. Carly looks on confused then it comes to her.

"Oh, no we haven't." Carly says, almost shocked that Sam would even ask. "Why are you asking me about this stuff?" she asks.

"Well, when I woke up a little bit Freddie had a…" she couldn't bring herself to say the vulgar word. "Had an erection." Carly's mouth hung open her eyes went wide in shock.

"Really?" She asks completely shocked.

"Yeah and he was awake and he knew he had it and I was awake and knew he had it, but he doesn't know I know… what do I do?"

"Umm…. You just don't mention it, he's not gonna bring it up, if you just ignore it he will ignore it and this whole thing will be behind you two."

"Right, thanks Carly." Sam says and turns to leave.

"Wait, why were you sleeping with Freddie?" Carly asks.

"Because I…" she was at a loss for words, so many lies she could use, but decides to tell her the truth. "Because I want to have a relationship with him." she says meekly.

"Oh, Sam that's so cute."

"No it's not and you'll shut your mouth." Sam says quickly. "But now, I have a question, how can you still be with Fred after he tried to keep me to himself?" Carly thought about how to tell Sam.

"Because he never really did mean to keep you, it was part of a very elaborate plan that would have worked if Freddie didn't screw it up."

"Plan to do what?" Sam asks.

"To get you two kids over your pride and hook you crazy kids up." Carly says cheerfully.

"Why go through all this trouble?" Sam asks.

"Because Freddie really likes you and this was the best way he could see. You two have a lot to talk about, don't let this chance go." Sam nods and walks out of the door. Carly follows and the two head downstairs. When they reach the living room everyone was sobered up and awake. Sam looks at her phone and sees it's 6 pm. Well, that's what they get for sleeping at odd hours of the day. Sam walks right over to Freddie who was sitting on the chair, fully awake and talking with Fred.

"Hi Sam." Freddie says when she gets right next to him. She reaches down and grabs his collar and yanks him to his feet and glares menacingly at him.

"You are a nerd, your hair is stupid, you have a chest and arms that I can't stand, and you wear awful shirts." She says never talking her anger filled eyes off of him. Freddie never felt fear like this before, he is sweating and his knees are shaking. Sam's face is less than an inch from his own and she slams her lips onto his, there is so much force in her kiss that Freddie stumbles back a bit. She comes up for air and Freddie's eyes are still closed recovering from their kiss. "I love you, Freddie." Sam says and rests her head on his chest. His arms wrap around her and he whispers to her.

"I love you too, Sam." They stand there and hold each other. Spencer walks into the room and looks at all of them. Freddie and Sam holding each other and Carly who'd moved to sit with Fred and was staring at him longingly, while he was caught up watching Sam and Freddie and admiring his handy work.

"Ahem." Spencer says loudly and everyone turns to face him. "Will you all join me at the table, I have some things to discuss with you all." And he walks over to sit at the table and they all join him, Spencer at one end, Sam and Carly on either side of him, Freddie next to Sam, and Fred next to Carly. "Sam and Freddie, I have noticed a certain amount of hugging and kissing and would like to say that it's about damn time." Spencer says calmly and the pair of teens smile. "As for you two." Spencer turns to look at Carly and Fred. Fred and Carly hold their breath and under the table, hands. "I may have overreacted. If you make Carly happy, I have no right to stand between you two." Both of them grow huge smiles on their faces and turn and kiss deeply. "Will you be doing a lot of that?" Spencer asks.

"Afraid so." Fred says quickly pulling away from Carly then going right back. Spencer gets up from the table and walks into his room for his coat. Freddie and Sam had resumed their make out. Spencer comes back out with a coat and keys.

"I've got some errands to run, I'll be back in a few hours, try not to inhale each other." And he walks out the door locking it behind him. Carly pulls away, and looks at Fred.

"What is it?" Fred asks.

"Just thinking about something Sam said earlier."

"What?" Fred asks and Carly leans in to whisper her thought into his ear. Fred's face turns a few shades redder and he hopes no one sees it. "But I don't have a…" he trails off and Carly runs into Spencer's room and comes out with an object in her hand and presses it into his. He looks down at the object and back at her. "What about these two?" he asks and nods toward the teens making out.

"They'll never notice they're a little too busy." Carly says.

"Are you sure you want to?" Fred asks a little unsure. She leans in and places a small kiss on his lips she grabs both his hands and pulls him up. Still caught in this tiny kiss she places his hands on her waist and wraps her arms around his neck. She slowly pulls him toward the stairs and when they reach them, she breaks off the kiss.

"I'm very sure."

"Have you done this before?" Fred asks, worried about the answer.

"No, but I really want to… with you." She says and pulls him up the stairs. Freddie and Sam continue to kiss for about ten more minutes before they come back down to reality. Having thoroughly explored each others mouths they decide to take a break and maybe talk with their friends. However, they can't seem to find them.

"Where could they have gone?" Freddie asks when a noise gives him his answer a thump from upstairs.

"Wanna go see what they're doing?" Sam asks. Freddie shrugs and they walk upstairs together. When they see the first sock on the stairs, they don't much notice, when they see the shoe; they pause but think nothing of it. It isn't until they see a shirt lying outside of Carly's bedroom door that they begin to think. Slowly Sam opens the door and in the room lying under the covers is a shirtless Fred, and even more shocking, a topless Carly.

"What happened here?" Freddie asks when they walk in, the two in the bed jump slightly because they didn't notice the two. Fred looks around the room at the clothes strewn all over the floor and then at Carly, then himself.

"Freddie," Fred says to him, "If you really have to ask, you are pretty stupid."

"You guys can't tell Spencer." Carly begs.

"Fine." They say in unison.

"Great, now please leave." Carly asks and the two close the door. After a few minutes the two re-emerge mostly dressed, except Fred is shirtless and Carly is missing a sock and a shoe.

"So," Sam says uncomfortably, "How was it?"
