Chapter 2.
There was a knock at the door and after Carly telling me to go and answer it and why she couldn't, I answered it. When I did, there stood a familiar dark-haired boy I knew all too well.
"Freddie?" I asked letting my bottle drop to the floor and putting my hands over my mouth.
"Yeah, it's me" He replied, he gave me a lopsided smile. He had changed so much. His hair was volumized, but the front was swept across his forehead. His eyes we're the same, chocolate brown that made me want to melt. His glistening, lopsided smile that made my knees weak.
"It's been too long!" I smiled at him, and then hugged him.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about loosing touch with you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't regret it"
"It's okay. Your here now, that's all that matters" I smiled and he smiled a little.
"Yeah, I guess"
"So what brings you back to Seattle?" I asked.
"Why don't we wait for Carly and we'll catch up?" He asked me, then it occurred that maybe I should let him in.
"Okay" I stepped aside to let him in, "Come on in"
We sat down on the couch and Carly came down the stairs, "Sam, who was at the door?"
"Take a look for yourself" I slightly turned so I was facing Carly.
He turned around aswell, "Freddie?" She screamed.
"Hey Carly" She ran down the remainder of the stairs to hug him.
Carly sits on the arm chair, so that she can see the both of us.
I turned slightly so that I could see them both, "Come on then. What goes on?"
"Well, You should know that I have a son" Wow. Wasn't expecting that.
I motioned for him to carry on, "He's only three, his name is Ryan"
"So you have a girlfriend" He shook his head, "Wife?"
"Kinda" I gave him a confused look.
"Well, a few days ago, Rose and I we're planning a night out, going for dinner. She had dropped Ryan off at her mother's earlier, and I had gotten off work early. I came home to find she was cheating on me" He sighed, "I told her that I wanted courtesy of Ryan, and she wasn't a fit mother. She gave up without a fight, and I moved back in with my mother." I rubbed his arm for comfort.
"No one should have to go through that" I said.
He sighed, "What about you two then?"
"Both single and lonely" Sam smiled, "My last boyfriend, Jake, he was my boyfriend of 3 years, he died 6 months ago"
Freddie opened his eyes wide, "Seriously?"
I nodded, "He lost control of his car. Died instantly." Tears sprung to my eyes.
"I'm sorry" He said and put his hand over mine, I shook my head and took a deep breath.
"I'm fine. I just don't like remembering it sometimes" I smile.
He smiled back at me, then turned back to Carly, "What about you Carly?"
"Still looking, haven't had a steady boyfriend in years"
"It's true. Carly goes on like 10 dates a week and every one of them turns out to be bad!"
We laughed. After another couple of hours of catching up, Freddie looked at his clock.
"I better be getting back, I'll bring Ryan around tomorrow to meet you's" He smiled.
Me and Carly nodded. We all shared one last hug, and he left.
"Wow. So much has happened with him since he left." I said.
"I know, What a bitch his wife was!"
"Yep, sooner he files for that divorce the better!"
The next morning, Freddie came over with Ryan.
"Morning, girls" Freddie smiled shutting the door. He sat next to me with Ryan on his lap.
"Ryan, this is your Aunt Sam, and Aunt Carly" He said pointed to both of us, I smiled remembering when we we're in high school, he always said that if he had a kid, that we would always be known as, 'Aunt Sam and Aunt Carly' and we said that he would be known as, 'Uncle Freddie'.
Ryan gave us a shy smile, "Hello"
"Carly leant forward in her chair, "Now, your daddy told me you like to cook cakes?"
Ryan nodded, "How would you like to help me cook some cakes?"
Ryan nodded eagerly. Carly took his hand and they went into the kitchen, since I was still in my pajamas's, I decided I should go get changed.
"I'm just gonna get changed" I said to Freddie, and he nodded.
I ran up the stairs to my bedroom, and picked out Celebrity babe fruity t-shirt, and dark, ripped, low-rise skinny jeans. Over the t-shirt I put on a belleflower cardigan and slipped on my favorite Gabriella Rocha winter hit boots. I slipped on three different colored clover bracelets. I chose a pink, purple and red one.
It only took me 10 minutes, so Freddie won't be too bored.
I went downstairs and sat beside him, "Took you long enough" He smiled.
"I'm a girl, what'd you expect?" I laughed.
A while later, Carly and Ryan we're still baking cakes. Me and Freddie we're sat on the couch watching TV. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
I gave Freddie a confused look, "All these visitors! I don't usually get this many in a year!" I smile.
I walked over and opened the door, a woman in her early twenties, with long red hair, and blue eyes was stood there.
She smiled at me, "Is Freddie here?"
"Uh, yes, why?"
"How silly of me. Not introducing myself. I'm Freddie's wife, Rose" She held her hand out, I hesitantly shook it.
"Freddie! Your wife is here"
He groaned, "God sake Rose! What do you want?"
"I came to see my husband and son, silly!" She said.
While he was talking to her, I couldn't help but realize how slutty she was dressed. I know I've just met her, and I don't know her but come on. Her clothes said enough about her personality. She was wearing an extremely short pink dress, with the biggest black bow I have seen across one shoulder. Her shoes we're white and silver, which must of been like six inches high. She had on a short, quarter length, black cardigan. A sliver handbag was draped over her left shoulder. I noticed on her left hand, fourth finger, she had on her engagement ring, and I ain't gonna lie, it was beautiful! It was silver with the biggest diamond ever in the middle. She had on two other rings, her marriage ring which was a silver band, that love was engraved into. On her right hand she had a gold ring that spread across two fingers and had L O V E in black. She had in the biggest silver hooped earrings ever, and a necklace that worded, sexy; yeah right. Her hair was down in waves, and reached her waist. She had in a silver Zara headband that finished off her look.
She slapped Freddie across the face, so that he fell to the floor. I ran over, "Whoa! What's going on?"
"He called me a slut, and so I slapped him across the face!"
"I can see why," I mumbled.
Freddie stifled a laugh, "what did you say?"
"I said I can see why"
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"I mean, that you should really put some clothes on. You could of came in your birthday suit and no one would notice the difference. I also mean that Freddie was right in calling you a slut, who wouldn't?" She raised her hand to slap me, but I grabbed her wrist, "That isn't a good idea. It's okay that your dressed like a slut. It's okay you wanted to see your son, it's okay you came here to get what you want. But, you cheated on my best friend, and that ain't okay with me." I said twisting her wrist making sure it hurt. "Now, If you'd like to keep this pretty little face of yours, I suggest you get walking away right now. But not before you apologize to Freddie!"
She gave me a death glare, and said, "I'm sorry Freddie"
I gave her a sarcastic smile, "NOW GET OUT OF HERE!" I screeched at her.
I slammed the door shut.
"Thanks for that, Sam" He smiled and hugged me.
"Anytime, Freddo!" I replied.
"How about I get my mom to look after Ryan, and You, Carly and I, go out for something to eat, my treat?"
"Why not?" I grin at him.
A while later, Carly and I, we're getting ready.
"I can't choose what to wear!" I screeched.
"Gosh, Sam! Here!" She laughed throwing a dress in my direction.
I noticed Carly was already ready. She had on an Orange volume fit and flare dress. Her shoes consisted of, some silver glitter heels. Her bag was an Ivory, patent leather, cube, quilted flap bag. For jewelry she had in some silver, heart, stud, earrings. She had a vintage gold coco coins necklace on and a rose pink, Zelda ring. She had curled her hair with the curling iron, which was something she didn't do often.
When I had put my clothes on, I was wearing a draped, stretch, silk-satin, blue dress. My shoes we're diamante, trim, platform court shoes. I was taking my chiffon, black, bow clutch bag. I put in my crystal, rhinestone, hooped earrings and put flower ring on. I attached a black diamante, flower necklace to me, and I also loosely curled my hair.
We heard a knock on the door, and gathered it was Freddie to take is out.
We walked downstairs to find Freddie at the door, "You girls ready?" We nodded.
He decided to take us to 'Tulio Ristorante' after we talked and ate, we had a few drinks and basically had a laugh. I turned around and noticed a familiar, bulky, dark headed guy. He looked so familiar, but I just couldn't put my finger on who it was. But then again, I could only see the back of him. I tapped Freddie and showed him who I was looking at, to see if he knew who it was.
Freddie's face instantly lightened up at the sight of him, "Gibby Gibson?"
The guy turned around and his eyes lit up, "Freddie Benson? How's it going man?"
"I've had better times" Freddie sighed, "What are you doing here? I thought you moved away."
The guy, Gibby, smiled, "I did, but then I got transferred here. I work with Pear. I'm just having some drinks; I had nothing better to do"
"Why didn't you bring your girlfriend down or something?"
Gibby laughed, "That would have been a problem. I don't have one, so I'm here all alone."
"Uh, hate to ruin your little moment but mind introducing?" I interrupted.
Freddie gave me a confused look, "Why would I introduce you?"
"Hate to break it to ya, but you seem to have this little moment going on and we shouldn't be left in the dark!"
"Are you serious?"
"Uh duh!"
"You don't recognize the guy you gave constant wedgies too throughout high school?"
"Gibby?" Freddie laughed, and I got up giving Gibby a hug.
"Hey Gibby! Wow, you've changed so much!" I smiled.
"So have you!"
I sat back down, "Why don't you join us?"
"I don't want to intrude or anything."
"You wouldn't be, I'd like some male company." Freddie offered.
Gibby grinned, "Okay, I'll join." He got up and sat down opposite Freddie and next to Carly.
We ended up having one of the best nights of my life. But soon it was getting really late, so Brad told us he'd come by in the morning and we could do something again, and he'd meet Freddie's son.
