Sam's POV
I see Freddie at school by his locker on Monday. I wondered what he and that nasty Jenny did. She was a total slut, yet very flexible which means she would probably be a joy in many different ways. This upset me. I was flexible and I would be a joy as well. I was pretty too, and this new look should attract Freddie. I had my hair curly, of course, under a black knit hat. I had on really short shorts and an off-the-shoulder sweatshirt that had Betty Boop on it. I also had my sneaker heels on. This was the closest to me I've dressed in almost a week.
Every girl in the world's watched 'Mean Girl's' right? Well Katie made her own set of rules. On Monday's you can add your own spunk. On Wednesdays we wear dresses and skirts, pants aren't allowed which, to me, is totally stupid. On Fridays we wear pink, of course, it irks me. Pink is my least favorite color, it's so girly and weak. Anyway I spotted Freddie and I ran over to him.
"Hey Fredd-" I was about to call him Freddie I needed a nickname quick. I will never tell him why I always need a nickname for him, he doesn't need to know everything. "Fredichuni"
"Hey Sam, how'd your date with Nate go?" he asked out of the blue, was he jealous? Probably not.
"Ok, he showed me to his place when we were done with the movie" I answered.
"Oh" he said
"How'd yours go?" I asked after a few awkward moments.
"Fine, she kissed me on the cheek after I dropped her off, her house is HUGE! So is her room" that last part struck something in me, they went to her room, where there would be a bed. That's it, I just had to be spontaneous and ask it.
"Did you have sex?" I asked and was surprised to hear Freddie ask the same thing at the same time.
"Did you?" he asked
"Did you?" I asked
"Just answer the question" he said impatiently
"No you answer first!"
"Why should I?"
"Because I asked first!"
"Actually we asked at the same time"
"Well I could still beat you into the dust"
"Could you?" What was this? He knew I could kill him if I wanted to.
"Yes I can!"
"Ever think I may be letting you beat me?" I stare at him, that's all I can do.
"Hey guys" Carly said.
"What?" I say to him ignoring Carly.
"I'm fairly sure you heard me, Puckett" I knew he couldn't beat and I was gonna prove it to him, but there were teachers everywhere. I know! I'll challenge him to an arm wrestle. Then at Carly's I will slap him silly and make him remember whose boss.
"Fine arm wrestle before class"
"Oh god what's this about" Carly said
"Fine, but let's make this interesting" he said and I was intrigued.
"Loser gives winner a foot massage and answer's question and if the winner doesn't like the answer, loser pays winner 30 bucks." He said and I liked it. I put my name in front of him and he shakes it.
"What's the question?" Carly asked, we look at each other and ignore her.
"ARM WRESTLE!" I screamed and Freddie and Carly followed. The student body of ridgeway was surprisingly and weirdly interested in the arm wrestles between me and Freddie. Everyone followed into our next class and we set up the chairs. Gibby, Wendy, Katie and her two followers, Lauren and Kenzy were there. Jenny and Nathan were there as well. Freddie did his flexing and stretching and I have to admit, I loved it when we have arm wrestles just for that. We put our elbows on the table and clenched hands. A stream of memories begin and I remember last time we did this it led to… kissing. He smiled at me obviously thinking the same thing, I smile back.
"You ready?" Carly asks clenching our fists
"Yup" I say.
"You ready?" Carly asks again.
"Yeah!" Freddie says.
"GO!" she screams and let's go of us. I don't try hard and that's when I realized the nub was beating me. The room went silent and I saw cameras come out. I tried harder and his hand went closer to his side but he put more strength in it and pulled my hand close to the table. I used all my strength now but it didn't do anything, at all. He won. The room went crazy with cheers and pats on the back but I just sat there stunned. Was he actually stronger than me? After all these years did the working out finally pay off?
"Ok Puckett, yes or no? And I'll be waiting for that foot rub" he said to me. Shit! I'm about to give him 30 bucks! I take out my money and hand it to him.
"No" I said.
"Keep the money, I like the answer" he said and I blushed to myself. Now I have to figure out what they did in Jenny's big room with the bed.
