Chapter Six: I'm a little bit depressed

AN: Thanks to Tommy's my 21 for reviewing and for the good suggestion to my story. I Hope you like the next chapter, which I put very hard work into as I did with all the other chapters before.

Disclaimer: I don't own ICarly, all credit goes to Dan Schneider.

The next day Carly woke up and slowly opened her eyes, she almost jumped up from the bed as she Mrs Benson sitting in a chair near her sons bed, Carly panicked a little because Freddie's mom probably had now a bad impression of her, but instead of yelling at her for what happened to her beloved son, she smiled to Carly's surprise and said:

"Relax Carly, I'm not here to lecture you in front of my son. I know that you love him and that it probably wasn't you're fault that he got hit by car. You two make such a wonderful couple and I knew that you would get one day together." Carly was surprised by what Freddie's mom said to her, so she didn't really knew how to reply to that. Before she could think of something to reply to Freddie's mom, Freddie's eyes slowly fluttered open and he weakly smiled in Carly's direction and finally then said with a weak voice, that resulted from the long sedation he had been in because of the big amount of blood that he had lost:

"Hey Mom, hi Carly I'm really sorry that I scared you so much." Before Freddie could say anything further, his mom got up from her chair and said:

"Shh, don't talk too much Fredward. I talked with your doctor yesterday and he said that you need to rest a lot the next days, because your body is still very weak because of the horrible accident." Freddie then just nodded, and decided to listen to his mother this one time after even Carly had said that he should do that. After staying a couple of hours with Freddie, Carly finally went home to get the homework for the next of school from Sam. Later she reached Sam's apartment, which wasn't very far away from hers and Freddie's and knocked on the door. After waiting for a little bit, Sam finally opened the door for Carly and said:

"Hi Carly, how is Freddie?" Carly was a little bit surprised by this question from Sam, because she was used to the fact, that Sam insulted Freddie all the time but she finally let that thought go and said:

"He is good but far away from being hundred percent fit, his doctor couldn't say how long it would take for him to recover from the accident." Carly replied to Sam's question and sighed to herself, this whole situation depressed her a little, and so she didn't knew if she wanted to go to school tomorrow without Freddie and doing the I Carly rehearsal today also without him present, because it just wouldn't be the same. Sam knew that Carly was really upset about it, and she wished so much that she could do anything to make her best friend feel better but unfortunately she hadn't any good idea at the moment. Sam then gave her best friend all the homework that needed to be done for tomorrow and after Carly had thanked Sam, she left to get back to her apartment to prepare everything for tonight's ICarly episode. She was the only one, that allowed to "play" with Freddie's technical stuff, when he was present and when he was not present with her and Sam. After everything was finally set for the next ICarly, she went to her room and started to work on the homework for school. While doing her homework she could hardly concentrate on it, because she had to think all time about Freddie's condition and the horrible accident kept replaying in head all the time and was giving her a very bad headache. Finally she decided to take a short break from homework, and got herself a glass with something to drink from downstairs and an aspirin tablet. She then swallowed the tiny tablet, with a big sip of her glass of water and then continued to do her homework. Later she was finally done with her school work, right at that moment she came down the stairs it knocked on the door. Spencer was busy with building a new sculpture, out off old card boxes he found at the junkyard and as he saw his little baby sister coming down the stairs he asked her:

"Hey how's Freddo?" Carly then first opened the door for Sam, with who she would be rehearsing for the next ICarly today and then only said to her brother before going upstairs to the ICarly studio: "He's fine, thanks for asking Spence." Then she went upstairs with Sam and tried her best to concentrate on the rehearsal for ICarly with Sam.

Sam's POV

Me and Carly finally got to our little TV Studio, where we did ICarly but today it was very different. It was the first time that Freddie would miss an rehearsal for the show and the actual next ICarly episode. The first thing me and Carly rehearsed for the show, was the meatball war which was a lot of fun for me. Carly had put on that fake smile all the time, with which she couldn't fool me, I knew that Carly was so much worried about Freddie's condition even if she wouldn't admit to me or to her older brother.

Carly's POV

I knew that I couldn't fool anyone with that fake smile on my face not even Sam, who was my friend since childhood and I remember our first meeting in kindergarten like it had been just a year ago.

Flashback

A younger version of Carly sits alone on a bench in kindergarten eating her tuna sandwich. Young Carly gets interrupted at eating as Young Sam comes over to her and asks: "Can I have your tuna sandwich?"

"No you can't get your own one!" Little Carly says angry to Little Sam, but as she wants to continue to eat her sandwich, she gets pushed from the bench by little Sam and she grabs the sandwich from little Carly's right hand. Little Carly quickly gets up from the ground, takes back her sandwich from Little Sam and pushes her from the bench. After Little Sam gets up from the ground, she gives up the sandwich to Little Carly and says: "You're alright"

End of Flashback

I smile a little at this memory and finally we finish the ICarly rehearsal after rehearsing the last thing for the next show. After we leave the ICarly studio, Sam asks me: "So can stay overnight at your apartment?"

I nonchalantly answer her: "Yeah sure you can." Then we both go downstairs, where Spencer is still busy with creating a new weird sculpture out off old card boxes, we both sat down on the couch and then I switched on the TV to watch Girly Cow with Sam. Spencer then grabs his coat and as he heads for the door he says to me and Sam:

"I'm going to meet with my buddy socko now, he has some cool new socks for me but I need to pick them up personally so I'm probably going to be back at the late evening have fun guys." Spencer then left the apartment and I was now alone at home with Sam for the next hours.

Meanwhile in the General Hospital in Seattle, Freddie doctor Peter Andrews checked up on his health condition. He shortly greeted Freddie's mom, before focusing totally on Freddie again:

"How are you feeling today Freddie?" Patiently he then waited for his patients response, because he knew that Freddie was probably feeling still very weak and was now far away at the moment of a full recovery from the horrible accident. Freddie then finally answered: "Still very weak Doctor Andrews." Freddie's mom then asked the Doctor:

"When will my son fully recover from the accident ?"

"It will probably take a week maybe less if we get lucky." Andrews answered the question from Freddie's mom. They continued to talk for a couple of more minutes and then Doctor Andrews finally left Freddie and his mother alone again.

AN: Please review and I hope you have enjoyed reading this Chapter.
