i got a bunch of reviews and i'm way happy. i hope this is a good enough update for you guys, don't forget to review again.
Sam pov.
I don't like that look on her face.
"About...." I try. She sighs deeply.
"I don't like Tasha." she says crossing her arms over her chest. I sigh.
"Look Carly, I'm tired, homeless, and hungry. Can we talk about your dislike for my girlfriend later?" I ask. I notice her cringe. "It makes you uncomfortable don't it?" I ask. She sighs. I shake my head and move to the kitchen.
"Of course it doesn't Sam. I just....don't like the word 'my girlfriend' and 'Tasha' in the same sentence." she says. I rummage through the fridge. Where's the damn ham?
"Well get used to it." I say. I feel her come up behind me.
"Bottom shelf." she says. I look down and....eureka! And we have ham!
"Score!" I exclaim.
"I can try I just....." she trails off. I look up at her.
"You just what?" I ask. She stares at me for a few minutes so I blink.
"I-"
"Hey Sam! Carly told me about your new girlfriend, congrats kiddo." Spencer says bouncing into the kitchen. Can you say bad timing? Really bad. I glance to Carly really quick and notice she's looking away and I guess I wont get any answers tonight.
"Thanks...hey, can I crash here for a while? Our apartment burned down." I ask. Spencer looks concerned.
"Of course. Are you...are you alright?" he asks. I nod.
"My mom and me are fine. Just nowhere to live." I say.
"You have a home here. Always." Spencer says. I can't help but smile.
"Thanks." I say seriously.
"Anytime. You're gonna have to crash with Carly until I can get all my stuff moved out and sleep out here." he says motioning to the living room. Shit.
"Oh that's fine, we always share the bed, it'll be no different." Carly says with a shrug. I just swallow hard. No different for her maybe!
Freddie pov.
I'm looking at Sam and she looks horrible.
"Are you ok?" I ask. She just growls at me.
"Hey pookie!" we hear and she growls at Tasha. Who's looking pretty hot today. Tasha smiles. "Aww, I missed you too." she says kissing Sam quickly on the lips.
"Fuckin' dykes." some guys says in disgust.
"Go away fucktard." Sam warns. The guy and his friends get closer.
"Whatcha gonna do freak?" he asks. Must be a ninth grader. I step in between him and the girls.
"Back off." I say. He scoffs.
"Oh, is wimpy here gonna scream me to death?" he asks in a baby voice. I feel anger welling up.
"Hey! Only I can make fun of him." Sam says standing beside me. Exactly!
"Shut up, dyke, we're not talkin to you." he says.
"Don't talk to her like that." I say getting even angrier.
"Shut up fag." another says. I step up to the main one and he pushes me away.
"The hell?! He just tried to kiss me!" he says. I scoff. "Stupid queers." he says looking at Sam and Tasha and I hit him. As hard as I can and he goes down. His friends charge at me and I can tell Sam is fighting right beside me. Finally a whistle sounds:
"Break it up!" Ms. Briggs says and a security guard are standing there.
"Mr. Benson, I'm shocked. You," she says glaring at Sam, "I'd expect this from." Sam just sighs leaning back.
"These guys were giving us trouble." she says with a tired sigh.
"Tell it to principal Franklin." ms. Briggs says. We nod and make our way to the principals office.
"Thanks nerd-boy." Sam says. I nod.
"Anytime evil lady." I reply. I finally notice Tasha.
"Were you hit?" Sam and I ask at the same time. She shakes her head.
"I'm fine. Are you guys ok?" she asks. We both nod about to walk into the office until a shriek stops us.
"Oh my god! Are you alright?!" Carly asks rushing towards me and Sam.
"We're fine." we answer at the same time.
"What happened? Samantha, what did you get Freddie into?" principal Franklin asks.
"I sta-" she starts.
"Some guys were saying homophobic stuff about Sam and her girlfriend." I jump in so she wont take blame. "Sam's my best friend so I couldn't just stand there while he harassed them." I add. Sam looks at me surprised. "Sam didn't start this, she defended herself and I defended them." he looks shocked.
"Homophobia?" he asks looking confused. "Sam, are you a lesbian?" he asks. She nods swallowing hard.
"Y-yeah." she says. His face softens.
"Well, you two were in a fight so you'll have to serve detention but these boys, we'll just have a talk with their parents." he says putting a hand on Sam's shoulder. "But first, I need to talk to you Sam." he says. She nods and offers us a small reassuring smile. When they turn to walk inside we all follow but they stop.
"Guys, it's ok. I'll catch up." she says. We nod and go outside the office and sit outside the door. Cus we're not moving until she's out.
Sam pov.
Ted wants to talk to me about who knows what.
"Sam, I'm sorry that happened to you." he starts sitting in his seat.
"Its fine. It happens sometimes." I say.
"It's not fine." he says. "Nobody should have to be treated any-" I cut him off.
"Ted, I get that your just worried but there's nothing to worry about." I say. He stares at me.
"Samantha I've known you all your life, I've lived in the building across the street since you were three." he starts. I nod cuttin him off though.
"I know. And you care..." I trail off.
"Where are you staying? I saw your building burn down yesterday...." he trails off.
"With Carly." I answer. He nods.
"Alright. But if you have absolutely any more problems come see me." he says. I nod.
"Thanks." I say standing. I get to the door and turn back to him. "You've been the closest thing I've had since Mark walked out and I just want you to know I mean it. You're the closest thing to a..... you're a good guy." I say. He just smiles.
"I feel the same way Samantha."
"Bye Ted." I say walking out with a new sense of confidence. I was a little scared how he'd react cus despite what people think, his opinion matters a lot to me. But I should've known he'd be cool. I notice Carly, Freddie and Tasha sitting on the floor. I reach my hand out and both Tasha and reach for it so I reach out the other one. They glare at each other but they grab my arm and pull me away.
"Aww, pookie, I'm gonna buy you a ham sub for lunch and a strawberry smoothie." Tasha says hugging me close.
"Well we're getting extra ham on the pizza tonight when Spencer orders." Carly says.
"Oh yeah, we'll Sam and I are having a day dedicated to all her favorite foods!" Tasha says hotly.
"Well we're going to have a full week!" Carly responds pulling me towards her.
"She's MY girlfriend!" Tasha yells pulling me back to her.
"MY best friend!" and they break into total argument.
"Do I not exist?" I hear Freddie asks. I can't even reply to that.
