I don't own iCarly what-so-ever.

18.) Cherries: Freddie's POV

"Carly!" I heard right as I entered the Shay apartment. I jumped slightly at the sudden yell that came from the kitchen. I knew that voice though. Sam.

"What!" I heard Carly yell from upstairs. I rolled my eyes and smiled.

"You're out of Cool Whip and chocolate syrup!" Sam screamed back. Whip cream? Chocolate syrup? What the-

I walked over to the kitchen, going unnoticed by Sam. I peaked to see that she had food ingredients covering the table. A big bowl was in front of her as she began putting stuff in it.

"What am I supposed to do about it!" Carly yelled then.

"I don't know! Go get some!" Sam screamed loudly.

"Oh fine!" Carly said her voice getting closer as she descended the stairs. I came out from hiding and into full view. Sam looked up at me immediately.

"Oh hey, I didn't see you come in." Sam said, not really paying attention to me, but rather whatever was in front of her.

"Thanks?" I answered sarcastically. "So what are you making?"

Sam grabbed a bowl of peanuts and looked at me, smiling widely.

"I'm making the ultimate sundae!" she exclaimed, putting some peanuts on top of the five scoops of vanilla ice cream that was already placed in the big bowl.

"Uh…"

"I got bored, okay?!" She retorted playfully. I smiled and leaned over, placing my elbows on the counter, looking at her partially made sundae. She had vanilla ice cream, peanuts, sprinkles, cookies, caramel, marshmallows and so on. I saw some melted ice cream begin to run down the side of her bowl. I quickly scraped my finger along the side, picking it up on my finger and sticking the ice cream in my mouth.

"Sounds interesting enough." I commented. I heard Carly come down the stairs and into the kitchen. She brushed her hair as she passed me.

"Hey Freddie." she said quickly as she grabbed her purse off the kitchen table, as well as her coat. "Well I guess I'll be back. I'm going to go get Sam some whip cream and chocolate syrup. I know Spencer needs some art supplies too. So I'll be back in 15. Don't do anything to drastic you two."

"Adios." I said as Sam said "Whatever."

I reached over and picked up a stray marshmallow and popped it in my mouth. I made a face, realizing they were stale and hard.

"Don't just stand there boy. Either help me make my sundae or make your own." Sam said looking at me after a moment of silence. I rolled my eyes and walked around the kitchen island, past Sam. I went to the cupboard and fished out a small blue bowl to make a smaller sundae. I walked back, reaching around Sam for the tub of vanilla ice cream.

I began making it then. I put two scoops into a bowl. Covered it in caramel, peanuts, chocolate chips, sprinkles and crushed Oreos. I avoided the old marshmallows however. Then I noticed a small bowl of cherries. I picked one swiftly from the bowl and dropped it on top of my sundae. I smiled in accomplishment. Then I walked over to the drawer to get a spoon.

I fished a silver spoon out of the drawer and walked back to my ice cream. I was about to dig in when I noticed my cherry was gone. I stared at the missing spot then up at Sam, who was chewing on something. I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Sam…you ate my cherry."

"Hmm." was all she said. She was too focused on her own sundae. I groaned and plucked another cherry off the top of the pile that sat in the small bowl. I put it back on the sundae. I then remembered that Carly had just bought some knew kind of punch and had some in the fridge. I strolled over to the fridge, took one out and walked back to the island.

Once again I looked down to see a cherryless sundae. I raised an eyebrow at Sam as she pulled the cherry stem out of her mouth. She smiled up at me innocently when she caught me staring at her.

"Sam…" I protested and put another red cherry on top and then grabbed another one just for the sake of eating it.

"There, my sundae is almost done! Now, Carly just needs to come back with the whip cream and chocolate and it's a done deal." She said grinning hungrily down at the ice cream creation. "And of course, you need the cherry on top."

She grabbed a cherry and popped one on top of the mountain of ice cream. I smiled and rolled my eyes. She grabbed another and ate it.

"You know they say that if you can tie a cherry stem in a knot, you're a good kisser." I said eyeing her. She rolled her eyes.

"Is that so, Fredlumps?" she said looking at me. There was a glint in her eye as she smiled slyly. "Shall we test it?"

"We shall." I agreed. Sam grabbed another cherry and popped it in her mouth. She chewed the cherry and took the stem out. Then she put the stem back in her mouth and got to work. I watched with an eyebrow raised as she moved her tongue around in her mouth for about a minute.

"Hah!" she said and pulled out the stem, which was indeed in a knot. She grinned and looked knowingly at me. I shook my head slightly and scoffed. "So I must be a good kisser."

"I already know that." I said giving her a flirty look. She raised an eyebrow at me.

"Can it, lover boy." she snapped jokingly. Then she handed over a cherry to me. I grabbed it, eyeing it. I pulled the cherry off the stem with my mouth and ate the cherry first. Then I placed the stem in my mouth and tried to move the stem into a mouth with my tongue.

Sam watched me for a few minutes as I tried to maneuver my tongue to put the stem into a stupid knot. After three minutes I gave up and took the unknotted stem out of my mouth.

"I can't do it." I said almost disappointed. I stared at the stem, narrowing my eyes. I threw it aside, pulling a fake pout face and crossing my arms over my chest.

"Aw." Sam cooed, sarcastically. She walked over to me and put her arms around me. I unwound my arms and put them around her. She smirked up at me. I still pouted but it didn't last long. She leaned up and kissed me. I smiled then. She pulled away then. "Hmm…I think it's a myth."

"Why is that?" I played along, smiling.

"Your kissing seems fine to me."

"Well yay." I said smiling. She leaned in for another kiss when the door flew open.

"I'm back!" Carly said coming in with two grocery bags. We pulled apart immediately and looked as she walked into the kitchen, setting down the two paper bags full of food items. "Sam I got your whip cream and chocolate syrup stuff." She pulled out two containers and put them on the table. "Oh cherries." Carly said picking up a cherry and eating. "You know they say that you're a really good kisser if you can tie a knot with the stem of a cherry?"

"So I've heard." I mumbled. Sam smiled sympathetically at me. I looked over to see Carly making a funny face as she struggled to tie a knot in her mouth.

"Well, I'm not really in the mood for sundaes anymore." Sam said giving me a hinting look. I raised an eyebrow.

"But you have a whole sundae here and I just bought you chocolate and-" Carly started, but Sam was already pulling and pushing me out of the door of her apartment quickly.

"Sorry Carly." Sam called over her shoulder. "Let's go Freddork. We're going to go 'hangout' at your place…" I looked at her and grinned.

"To go practice you cherry stem tying skills?" I whispered.

"Exactly."


R&R! Thanks you guys for reviewing my stuff!

Totally saw iWon't cancel the show... Well, it's just not the same without Sam. Although Spencer was pretty funny in this episode, as well as Gibby.

Has anyone seen the commercial for the Beyong Belief special on Nick? It's going to be showing the iBelieve in Bigfoot episode...looks interesting enough!
