Hey everyone. I know I don't update this story as often as I'd hope but I just discovered that I suck at writing multi chaptered stories. I think that one shots and two shots are more of my thing. But I will still continue this story cause surprisingly, there are a number of people who actually like this story. That makes me a very happy girl lol. Ok this is more of a filler chapter I guess. I hope you like it regardless. :)
BTW, I know some of you don't really like the David/Sam scenes and I understand cause I love love LOVE Seddie. But please just be patient. Good things come to those who wait for it ;)

CH 5: You're Invited
It was a Sunday afternoon. Carly was on a date with Griffin (no surprise there) and Freddie decided to spend some time with his mom since they don't really see much of each other anymore. My mom wasn't home and I didn't expect her to come back anytime soon so I invited David over for a movie night. We were on the couch and I had my head against his shoulder while his arm was around my waist.
We were watching some bootleg version of 2012. Both of us were broke and we didn't feel like watching old movies. This movie was actually pretty funny. No way would I believe that the world was going to end on December 12, 2012. It was a good adventure movie with lots of suspenseful moments but I've seen people freak out about the world ending and quite frankly it was getting annoying.
I felt David take his arm away from me and he sat up away from me.
"Uh what's wrong?" I asked him.
He looked at me curiously. "Have you invited your friends to the party? It's in a couple of days you know." Oh shoot. I totally forgot about the damn party. I wasn't too thrilled about going, knowing that Jonah will be there. "I forgot.. sorry" was all I could say to him.
"Well you have to tell them soon. You know I really want you to go." he said as he gave me a pathetic puppy dog look. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay I'll ask them tomorrow. Hopefully Carly can take a few hours from her boyfriend and actually hang out with us." I said
"That's my girl" he said and planted a kiss on my cheek. We resumed our cuddle position and continued watching the movie.
So I kind of put off asking Carly and Freddie about the party. I don't know why but I had a bad feeling about that party. Like something bad was going to happen. I shook it off because David really wanted me to go.
It was Thursday and the party is on Friday. I HAVE to invite them now.
I was on my way to Freddie's house from the super market. I decided to buy a couple of beef jerky packs. I felt a little guilty eating all of Freddie's ham, even if he DID say it was no big deal. I felt a vibration in my pants (A/N wow that sounded so wrong. Excuse my corrupted mind). I took my phone out and it was a text from Freddie.
Hey you comin'?
Crap! I checked the time and I was thirty minutes late. I quickly sent him a text back
Yeah I stopped 4 food. I'll b there soon
I pressed send and I ran to Bushwell as fast as my legs could take me. I just wanted to get this invitation over and done with.
Five minutes later (I'm a fast runner) I made it to Freddie's apartment. I knocked on his door and he quickly opened it.
"Hey Fredward." I said, still standing outside his apartment. "Can we go to Carly's? I need to talk to both of you."
"Uh..ok?" he said. He knocked on Carly's door and we waited. She opened the door and gave us a surprised look.
"Oh hey guys? I thought you were studying." she asked us as we walked into her loft and sat on the couch.
"Ok guys... look" I started, "There is a party tomorrow and David wants me to go but I told him I would go only if you two went."
"How come you don't wanna go without us?" asked Carly
"Well, Jonah's friend is hosting it and David was invited. I don't want to let him down. Can you two please come? Jonah will be there and I want you two to keep me in check. I might punch his teeth out of his mouth."
Freddie started chuckling. "Of course I'll come. What about you Carls?"
"Um.. can Griffin come?" she asked in a shy tone. She knew we weren't too find of her boyfriend.
I started to groan. I dodn't want that freak going but if it meant that Carly would come then it would be cool, I guess, "Uh sure, you can bring him to the party."
"Ok good. Well guys, you can stay here if you want. Me and Griffin are going out." she said while giving us a concerned look.
"Surprise surprise, Shay. I think we are gonna go study at Freddork's house instead. Let's go Freddo." I grabbed his hand and pulled him to his apartment leaving Carly very confused. Within a second we stepped into his house and I threw myself on the couch.
"What was that about?" he asked me.
"Ugh Carly is irritating me. We barely hang out anymore. She is always with Griffin. After iCarly rehearsals, she just leaves to hang out with him. On the weekends, she is with him too. What kind of friend is that?" I said as I rubbed my tmeples with my index fingers. I was so frustrated.
"I know what you mean but she really likes him. Shouldn't you give her a break?"
"Well yeah I know she likes him but they are practically attatched at the hip. I'm with David but you don't see me ditching you and Carly at any chance possible. Unlike her, I am considerate of my best friends." I blurted out. Freddie quickly looked at me with his eyes wide in shock.
"What?" I asked him.
"You called me your BEST friend. You really think of me as a best friend?" he asked me in a very sincere voice.
Truth be told, I liked him a hell of a lot more than Carly right now. "Yeah. Why are you so surprised?"
"Well I never thought you would actually consider me a friend." he said with his head down.
"Freddie, you ARE my best friend. You are the one helping me get my grades up. You are the one that welcomed me to your house everyday for tutoring. I'm not gonna ditch you just cause I have a boyfriend now." I told him. I gave me a small smile which faded quickly. I don't know what that meant but I shook my head and tried not to dwell on it.
"Wow Sam, I can't believe this. I don't know what to say. I'm so touched you actually think so high of me." I smiled at him.
We stayed silent for a couple of seconds before he asked me something. "So besides the fact that Jonash might be at the party, why did you want me to go?"
I sighed. "Well, me and David barely started going out and I have a weird feeling that something bad might be there and I know you're smart Freddo. If anything happens, I trust you to be there."
I've always been one to protect myself but for soem reason this weird feeling my stomach kept telling me that not even I could protect myself from what might happen. Carly was going to be there with Griffin and I trust David but not enough to count on him to protect me.
"Sam, you have nothing to worry about. Nothing will happen to you and if anything does, I'll be there." he smiled at me and stood up, his arms wide open.
"Really?" I asked, and I wrapped my arms around him. "Thanks Freddie" I smiled.
"Hey what are friends are for?"
We pulled away and began to work on our homework. Something told me that the party might not be so bad. Knowing Freddie would be there, I knew things wouldn't get so out of control. I've never felt so safe with anyone before...
Well there you go. What do YOU think that last line means? Could Sam possibly start feeling something for Freddie? Hmmmm who knows ;)
Sorry if Sam seemed a bit out of character here. Believe me, there IS a reason why she feels so insecure about this party.
Sorry again for the short chapter. The next one is the party and there will be a lot of drama.
I'll try to update by either Wednesday night or Thursday
Also, I updated my profile with some sites you can use to contact me if you have any specific questions about the story. I'm not always on FF dot net so if you have any concerns, add me on any of the links on my page. Goodnight.
