A/N: Chapter 3. ENJOY!
Freddie's POV (Sunday, 7:50PM)
'Carly? Why are you crying?' I pulled her into my house.
'It's Sam… I should have made her stay… this is my fault…' she wailed.
I made her sit on the couch. 'You couldn't stop her. We didn't know what was going on.'
'But I knew!' She cried. 'I knew!'
Carly's POV (Sunday, 7:52PM)
Oh crap. Now I've done it. Sam's going to kill me.
'You knew what was wrong? And you didn't even tell me?' He sat up and stared at me.
'Well, I did ask you if you noticed something was wrong with Sam.' I bit my lip.
'So, why did she leave so suddenly?'
I couldn't take it anymore. 'Freddie, you moron, she's in love with you!'
'Wh-what?' He gaped at me.
Flashback
Sam and Carly sat on beanbags and waited for Freddie to arrive. Carly started to flick through a teen magazine, while Sam fished out a piece of paper and started to doodle on it.
After a while, Carly noticed what Sam was doing and quick as a flash, whipped it out of Sam's hands. Startled, Sam tried to snatch it out of Carly's hands.
'Give it back!' Carly stuck her tongue out and looked at the piece of paper. And was so shocked she nearly fainted.
It was a drawing of Freddie with his head on his hand and smirking, with dozens of little flying hearts surrounding him.
'S-Sam? Why did you draw this?' Carly asked, leaning back, a hand pressed against her forehead.
'It's… nothing. I'm drawing it for… art… class.' Sam stammered, blushing a rosy red.
'Our assignment was to draw a-Wait a minute. You like Freddie, don't you?'
'Is there any fried chicken?' Sam asked loudly, walking over to the door.
'SAM! Answer the question.'
'Alright, I like him! I know you like him too but I can't help it, can I?' Sam banged her fist against the door
'Sam-'
'Shut up! You have everything you want. Perfect Carly and her perfect life. What she wants, she gets. Me? All my life I had to fight for everything. You really think I love hurting people? I don't! I hurt them to protect myself!' Sam whipped around and faced Carly. 'Fine! Keep your Freddie to yourself! I don't care anymore. I'm going!' Sam marched back, snatched her backpack and stalked to the door.
'Sam, your drawing-'
'Keep it. Tack it to your walls or something.' Sam looked back, her eyes full of bitterness. 'You could always stick it to your mirror. Then you could make out with him every single morning.' She laughed bitterly. 'Bye.'
'Sam-'
The door slammed, and Sam was gone.
End of flashback
Freddie's POV (Sunday, 8:00PM)
OH.
MY.
GOD!
Sam likes me!
She actually likes me! I felt like I was flying.
'Um… Freddie?' Suddenly I heard Carly's voice, and I fell back to the ground. Ouch.
'Yeah?' I said, irritated. Trust Carly to ruin this perfect moment.
'Freddie…' Carly hesitated. 'Actually, I like you too, so…'
'What? Carly, I thought you liked Gibby!' I gaped at her.
'Umm… actually, no. I was trying to make you jealous.'
'So, all those years I've wasted just to get your affections-'
'Yeah, I was playing 'hard to get'. So…' she looked at me, eyes full of eagerness.
'I'm sorry, Carly, but I like you only as a sister. I love Sam now.' I stared at her, willing for her to understand. I used to like Carly, but after I met Sam, I knew she was meant for me.
'Okay.' she abruptly stood up. 'I'd better go.' She stalked to the door.
'Carly!' But she was gone.
Carly's POV (Sunday, 8:15 PM)
I stalked out. All those years, I had truly loved him. Just because I fooled around, I lost him. I ran into my room and locked the door, barely holding back the tears.
I tacked the drawing to the door. Suddenly, I had the perfect idea.
I would bring them together. Then, I would break them apart, and Freddie would be mine.
A/N: There, I fulfilled my promise! No cliffhangers! ^-^ Anyway, just so you know, I'm going to a camp from 9/8 to 14/8 because I joined the musical in my school so I won't be updating in that week. I promise I'll write the story in camp, then post it here one to two days later. During that period of time, reviews would be appreciated! XD
