It was now time to practice the first scene, without the script.
"Girls! Wait up!" Freddie's character called.
"Mitch!" Sam said, her acting skills coming into place. Sam and Freddie hesitated, before Sam decided that if they didn't do it now, Carly would get suspicious and start asking questions again. She leaned forward and hugged Freddie. Freddie was surprised that Sam had actually made the first move, but then again, he was glad she did. He wouldn't have been able to make the first move. Too much of a wimp.
The script didn't exactly say how long the hug was supposed to last; it had just stated that they were to share a friendly hug.
Sam could smell Freddie's cologne, and she was surprised he even wore it. She thought he was just stupid nerd. Freddie could smell Sam's strawberry scented hair. Her hair was in his face, so smelling it had been an involuntary action.
Sam pulled away, looked into Freddie's eyes for a second, before going back to her happy character. "I haven't seen you in so long!" She said. She hung her head slightly, attempting to cover her face with her hair. She could feel her cheeks heating up – she was blushing!
"It's only been a month." Freddie recited. He laughed. "But I missed you too!"
"Hey Mitch!" Carly and Kayce's character said together.
"Hey girls!" Mitch says. Freddie was looking to a side, trying to hide his face away from Sam. He hadn't blushed last time he hugged Sam, so why was he now?
"STOP!" The director called. "Sam, Freddie, are you okay with hugging?"
"Yeah… we're fine with it…" Sam said.
"It just seemed like an awkward move. Would you be able to make it a bit less stiff for the filming?"

"Yes." Sam said. "We'll try to do that for filming." She looked down, blushing again.

Carly couldn't have helped but notice the blushing that took place between Freddie and Sam. The first day of work was over, and they had just about perfected the whole of the first scene. The boys were now back in their room until they were allowed to go down for dinner, and Sam was attempting to sleep – before Carly started interrogating her, that was. "So, Sam, I see you and Freddie have finally hugged…"
"Yeah… It was what we had to do."
"I saw you blushing." Carly confessed.
Sam looked down. "I didn't blush. Why would I blush?"
"When you hugged."
"It was hot in there. Didn't you notice the high temperature?"
"No. The fans were on Sam. Admit it, you were blushing!"
"Na-a."
"Freddie was blushing too."
"He was probably just embarrassed that he had to hug me."
"You were embarrassed?"
"I never said that!"
"Just admit it, Sam!"
"Okay. Maybe it felt… different than what I expected it too."
"Like a good different?"
"NO!" Yes. "A terrible different! A horrible different! A gut-wrenching different!" Sam exclaimed.
"Oh, really?" Carly asked sarcastically.
"Really." Sam said, attempting to be deadly serious, and hoping Carly bought it.

"So, what's up with you and Sam-o, Fred-o?" Spencer asked.
"What do you mean?" Spencer asked, generally confused. "Everything's the same as usual."
"Oh, so you mean you usually blush when you hug her?" Spencer teased.
"No. I didn't blush... it was just because… I was wearing a long sleeved top!"
"Freddie, you have a t-shirt on. Its short sleeved. You were blushing."
"Well, they put too much blusher on my cheeks."
"Freddy-o. They didn't even put makeup on you. It was just a rehearsal. Stop making excuses."
"I don't know why I was blushing…" Freddie admitted.
"Because you love her?"
"NO! Spencer, how could you even think that?"
"I just thought… you two would be cute together, you know."
"Sam and I will never be together. We each other!"
"Sam seemed pretty jealous of Kayce."
"Why would Sam be jealous of Kayce?"
"She has to kiss you."
"And?"
"Sam LOVES you!"
"Sam does not love me!"
"Whatever you want to believe, Freddie."
"I believe the truth." Freddie said, before going across to see the girls.

"Mmmmm, this bacon is amazing!" Sam said, lost in meat heaven. It was now 6 O'clock, and the food had just been served. It was all free for them – it came as a package deal for staying at the hotel – which they didn't even pay for! So really, all food was free for the iCarly's!
"That's probably why you took the whole platter!" Freddie exclaimed, but Sam was too lost in her world to hear him.
"Sam sure does love her food." Spencer said. "And she also loves FRIED CHICKEN."
"Er…. Fried chicken is a food, Spencer." Carly corrected.
"I know that, but I mean a different type of FRIED CHICKEN."
"What are you on about?"
"It doesn't matter. Freddie will probably know, anyway. He knows that Sam loves FRIED CHICKEN."
"I sure do!" Sam said.
Spencer burst out in giggles.

A/N - Sorry I havn't been updating much, or been having long chapters. I've had a really long , hard week with family chiz, but I hope it doesn't affect my writing too much. Thanks for understanding!
