A/N: Hey Guys! WHO SAW iDSAF? Omg it was perfect! I don't care what anyone said, I loved every time Sam called Freddie baby! SO CUTE!
seddiexx: I just started in January!
Jesrod82: It will be a surprise once Freddie finds out… however is not a surprise for Freddie! My Freddie is a little too insecure, he also is a kind hearted guy, so he thinks he has to make it up for Sam, because of the years she liked him and he didn't realized. He thinks he needs to do spectacular things for her, and this way she'll feel secure and loved. He knows that she is insecure, so he's trying (on his way) to make her realize how much he loves her. Is it a little too much? Maybe. She hates it and loves it, mostly because that's not the Freddie that she fell in love with, but it also makes her feel special. Brad is concern, because Freddie is his friend, and being a outside person allows him to see things that Sam, Freddie and even Carly are not able to. And yes, oh my god it was cute! I love when she called him baby and I loved their fights! It was sooo cute, I mean, he brushed her hair! OMG!
Cheruth: I get your point, he is her friend too, however his bond with Freddie is stronger, so he automatically worries about him more than her. Just like Sam would do if she thought Brad was cheating on Carly, she wouldn't go straight to him because he would just deny and she would be mad at him. And about Pam… well she just doesn't want Sam to go through what she did. She's her mother after all. About Sam cheating… well you'll find out soon enough, but I like the theory that she wouldn't cheat, that she is loyal. But you have to wait to see!
Wwtggd: thanks for the suggestion! And I agree with you, the boy is hot! About cheating or not… well you'll have to wait and see!
ConverseLove64: thank you! Reviews like your makes me giggle! Anyway, it would be good to have a guy like Freddie Benson out there for every girl in the world, but do you think that's really who he is or who he's trying to be?
Clarksonfan: don't worry, whatever happens, just remember, this is a Seddie fic, and they'll end up together!
Maliumpkin: he is amazing isn't he? But like I said to ConverseLove64, do you think that's really who he is or who he's trying to be?
Drumline: Poor Brad, he's just trying to be a good friend!
Sam's POV
I was watching the reruns of Girly Cow, but I was bored out of my mind. It's been three days since my first anniversary with Freddie, and things between us couldn't be better. I gazed my new charm and thought about my geek boyfriend. He is so charming and awesome… must he be so awesome? Carly plopped down next to me, holding a bowl of popcorn. I was so lost in my thoughts I didn't realize when Carly took the remote off my lap, but I wasn't paying attention anyway. She changed channels until she found out that Gossip Girl was on. Also a rerun. I honestly don't know what she likes about this stupid show. Other than Penn Badgley and Chace Crawford, the rest pretty much sucks.
"Oh my gosh! This is the episode where Dair kiss! Yay" she squeaked and I took the opportunity to steal the popcorn.
I must admit that Dan Humphrey is a hot nerd. And I love hot nerds. Blair used to be awesome, she used to be a bad ass motherfucker! Now she is just stupid. Serena is a disgrace to the blonde race, she disgusts me. And don't even get me started with Chuck. He is the type of guy I would love to kill. The whole show is bullshit, a big pile of dog shit! But Carlotta loves it. Chace Crawford is good in the eyes, but he's not my type. I dig brunettes with big and brown eyes, and smart as hell. Yeah, yeah…
"Oh my gosh they are so perfect for each other!" she smiled "they kinda remind me of you and Freddie"
"How so?" I shoved a handful of popcorn inside my mouth.
"Well, they started out as enemies. The only thing connecting them was Serena. Dan was in love with Serena, and Blair hated him. He hated her back. They fought and bickered. Somehow, they became friends, although they wouldn't admit it. They care for each other but wouldn't caught dead admitting it. And now this… the kiss" she pointed at the screen "doesn't it remind you of anyone?"
"Yeah, sure some of it. But there is a big difference. I'm not a sucker for swines like Chuck Bass, and I have a lot of self respect, I wouldn't do half of the things she does"
"Yeah, you're right. You're awesome Sam, but what I mean is the relationship, doesn't necessarily means that you have some similarity with the characters"
"Because I don't. Well… Freddie is a nerd like Dan, and he is sweet, smart and caring. And although Freddie is way hotter, they're both attractive dorks. And Freddie is smarter when it comes to technology and Dan is a better writer, but other than that they have a pretty similar personality" I stated.
"Yeah, Dan and Freddie are souls brothers!" she giggled "And they're perfect for each other, you know, Dan and Blair"
"Yeah, whatever Shay, they are fictional characters from a TV show, don't get too excited over something that doesn't exist" oh I miss Freddie.
"That's right… they are. Freddie also has some similarities with Cody" she giggled.
"Cody? As in Cody Martin? As in Zack and Cody?" I asked, mouth full of popcorn "what does that mean? That I'm Bailey?"
"Yup and nope" she stuck her hand in the popcorn bowl "he is Cody, that's for sure, but in this case, you're Zack" she laughed.
"HAHA Shay!"
"I mean it! He is smart and sweet like Cody. A good looking nerd, with great heart and lots of patience. You're lazy, abrasive, mean, and lack in the patience department, like Zack" she said, taking a sip of her gross especial lemonade "you bicker, but in the end you love each other, and somehow you always involve him in your schemes" she shrugged.
"Yeah, but they're both boys, and siblings, TWINS for Christ's sakes!"
"You got my point" she changed channels again, stopping on Disney, and guess what was on? Yup, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody. "They're so cute"
"Yeah"
"Cody is hotter though" we said in unison, and laughed.
Hanging out with Carly like the good old days was fun. She complained that we didn't have much time for each other, so we agreed on taking at least a day of the week to dedicate to our friendship. Girls' Day. The boys also liked the idea, and that's how Boys' Day was born. Freddie is out there somewhere with Brad, maybe doing something nerdy like go to the pear store and drool at the new computers and stuff. I love having a whole day to hang out with Carly, but I miss Freddie. I miss him every second we're apart, cheesy right? Well, it's true. Maybe I'm turning into a sappy just like him… shit!
Speaking of Freddie, he and Brad just walked in, laughing and talking about something. He saw me and smiled, I smiled back. Brad gave me a weird look and walked straight into Carly's open arms. He's been acting weird around me lately, I don't know what his deal is, but I'll find out soon enough. Freddie took my hands making me stand up.
"Hey Blondie" he kissed my nose "missed me?"
"No" yes "why would I?"
"Because you can't make out with Carly" he leaned closer, enough to kiss me, but he didn't. He just brushed his lips against mine very briefly.
"True" I tried to catch his bottom lip between my teeth but he pulled away "what the hell?"
"Say you miss me" typical Freddie.
"Nope. Just shut up and kiss me" I tried again, but he pulled away again.
"Say it" he demanded.
"NO!"
"SAY IT!"
"NO!"
"SAY IT!"
By now we were fighting, pressed against each other, his arms wrapped around my waist, my arms wrapped around his neck.
"If you want this…" he pointed at his lips "you've got to give me something in exchange"
"UGH! You're so frustrating!" I smacked his shoulder.
"Say it!"
"NO"
"You guys!" Carly hollered "you're a pretty weird couple, you look like you're about to kiss, but when someone comes closer, you're fighting, but in reality you're just arguing" she chuckled, but Brad remained serious, giving me that look. What the fudge is wrong with him? "I bet that's all UST"
"What?" we said.
"Unresolved sexual tension. The moment you two bang each other this will all go away" she grimaced "ew"
"I couldn't agree more Carly, so we should solve this right now Sam. Let's go to my room and end this UST between us baby" he started to walk out the door dragging me with him.
"Fredperv!" I giggled "stop!"
"Oh come on! I'll settle it good" he smirked.
"Ew Freddie" Carly said, gagging a bit.
"That's between mom and dad here kid, stay out of this" he said, with an exaggerated deep voice "let's get going then" he began to drag me out again.
"No, wait" I laughed "stop that crazy nerd!" I jerked my hand out of his grasp.
"Oh well… I tried" he shrugged.
"What you guys did all day?" Carly asked, sitting on Brad's lap, but he seemed out of it, like he was in deep thought.
"We went to the gym" Freddie said, sitting in front of the computer "I had to teach Brad a few things"
"He sure needs it, right Braddork?" I scoffed, trying to make him laugh or something, but he just glared at me.
"Sam" Carly said "he doesn't need to be extra beefy like Freddie, I like him just the way he is" she kissed him.
"Thanks babe. At least you tell the truth, unlike some people" he said looking straight to me. What the fuck?
"O…kay" Carly seemed as confuse as me.
"Chillax scrawny boy, I'm just trolling with you!"
Alright, this is getting weirder by the second. What's his deal with me? I couldn't ask, because now Carly was eating his face, so I just stood up and walked towards Freddie. He was fixing something in the iCarly website, I wrapped my arms around his waist and rested my chin over his shoulder.
"Watcha doing nerd?" I asked, kissing his neck.
"Just making some adjustments" he said, typing something.
I guess we stayed like that for at least ten minutes, until he frowned and put his hand on his forehead.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"Oh nothing" he resumed his work.
I looked over Barly, who were engaged into a full blow make out session. Oh well. Freddie kept typing, then stopped again, rubbing his temper. Something is definitely not right.
"Freddie, what's up?" I turned him around.
"Just a little headache" his eyes were a little red.
"Freddie, you've been having a freaking headache for a week now. Go see a doctor" I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"I hate doctors and you know that" he protested.
"I don't care dork, go see one!" I smacked the side of his head.
"Ouch Sam!" he put his hand where I smacked.
"Shit! Sorry, I'm sorry baby" I kissed his temper, and he froze "what?"
"You called me baby" he said with a huge grin "you called me baby"
"Don't get used to!" shit, I need to change the subject "I mean it Fredidiot, go see a doctor"
"I don't need a doctor okay?" he wrapped his arms around my waist "I need you. Me and you. Alone. Together" he kissed my neck "I need a little love" by the way he said love I knew he meant blowjob.
Since he got his first blowjob he can't shut up about it. In fact, every time we're alone now, he tries to push my head down. He's such a boy!
"And you'll get a little love AS SOON AS YOU GO SEE A DOCTOR!" I hollered.
"Sam! My head" he complained.
"Don't like it? Go see a doctor!" I put my hands on my hips.
"Fine. I'll go tomorrow" he sighed "now can I get a little love?" he pouted.
"No. Only after the doctor's appointment" he pouted again "but we can go make out now" I grabbed his hand and dragged him to the studio.
"Yeah, that's good too" he relied "not as good, but good"
"Shut up"
Carly's POV
Something was really bugging me, something that has been happening for three whole days. Right after Seddie's first anniversary, Brad is been acting all weird around Sam. At first, I didn't think it was a big deal, but now something tells me there is more to it than I know. I asked him a couple of times if there was something wrong but he always changes the subject, or says he has to go home. Now that Sam and Freddie left, I'm going to trap him, he's not going to leave before I found out what's going on.
I broke the kiss to look at him. As if he knew what I was going to say, he stretched and yawned. He always does that before telling me he has to go home. I was faster, ran off his lap and locked the door, putting the key inside my bra.
"Carly" he protested "it's late I have to go home"
"No way Bradley! You've been acting all weird with Sam, tell me what's wrong! What was that whole telling the truth thing earlier?"
"Look…" he sighed, giving up, he knows I get what I want when I want "okay, but this conversation stays between us alright?"
"Alright" I sat next to him on the couch.
"That night after their first anniversary, I dropped you at Wendy's and came back to Freddie's. I wanted to just hang out and talk about stuff. So I was around the corner from his apartment when I heard Sam talking on the phone. She was talking to Pete"
"What? Why?"
"I don't know, that's what I couldn't figure out. So I started to eavesdrop" I glared at him "I know, not cool, but I don't regret it. Anyway, she was talking about some secret between them. She told him it would their dirty little secret. She also said she wouldn't tell you or Freddie, and that he was oblivious to this kind of thing. Anyway, I asked Freddie about Sam's relationships with her exs and he told me she had zero contact with them, which I found weird since she was talking with Pete on the phone about some secret. Anyway, I figured she didn't tell Freddie about the phone call, that's why I'm pissed"
"Brad, this all very weird, but Sam loves Freddie, she wouldn't do anything bad, she wouldn't…" I trailed off "cheat on him or something"
"I don't know Carly. That was a pretty weird talk to me. I just… I don't want him to get hurt you know, he is my friend and I worry about him" he sighed.
"That's very sweet honey, but I know Sam and I know she wouldn't do anything, but if it make you feel better I'll talk to her" I rubbed his back.
"Okay" he leaned forward and gave me a chaste kiss "I'm going home. Tell me what you find out"
"I will" he stood up, but I grabbed his wrist "I think it's very sweet of you to worry about him"
"He's my best friend, and I know he would do the same for me" he smiled.
"I'm sure he would" I kissed him again, this time deeply "so? Should I be jealous of this whole bromance of yours?" I asked with a smirk.
"Jeez I don't know… Freddie is quite handsome" he scoffed.
"Oh my! How should I call you guys? Frad? Breddie? Beddie?"
"I'm sure you can pick one, I like all of them though" he laughed and kissed me again "I wouldn't exchange you for anyone, doesn't matter how big his biceps are" he said seriously.
"You promise?" I pouted.
"Sure, I promise" we chuckled "night honey"
"Night sweetheart"
I closed the door and went to my bedroom. This whole Sam/Pete thing is weird. But I know she wouldn't cheat on Freddie, she's been in love with him for years, she wouldn't waste what they have. She loves him… there is nothing to worry about, but maybe a little talk will do some good. I'll talk to her tomorrow. Yeah, I'll do that. I opened my drawer and checked my red calendar, oh that's weird, today is the deadline… I've been late for a while now… I'm sure is nothing though, maybe it's just the stress of the web show. Yeah that's all.
Sam's POV
I was sitting at Frankie's waiting. Carly called me twenty minutes ago and I had to lie. I told her I was still asleep and that I would come by later. I called Freddie to check if he went to the doctor and he told me he was already there. I don't want to worry very much, because he has always been healthy and I'm sure it's nothing. But deep down inside, I worry anyway, I couldn't bear if something was wrong with him. I'm sure is nothing.
I ordered a burger and waited. He's running late. He asks me to be here early and he is running late. Nice! Did you get my sarcasm there? I finished my fries and he finally decided to join me.
"So? You're ten minutes late dude! What the fudge?" I snapped.
"Sorry Sam I had to get rid of my parents" he said looking around "no one knows you're here right?" he asked nervously.
"No, you're good" I took a sip of my peppy cola.
"You didn't tell anyone right? Does anyone suspect anything?"
"No, chillax" I called the waitress "buy me a burger" I told him.
"Fine. You're sure that no one is suspicious? I don't want your beefy boyfriend beating the crap out of me" he laughed nervously.
"He won't, he has no reason to, but if he was suspicious he would be bitching about it already, so trust me he doesn't have a clue" the waitress finally came to our table.
"What can I get you?" she asked eyeing him.
"Two burgers, more fries and another peppy cola" I told her.
"I don't want anything Sam"
"It's not for you" I looked at her again "got it?"
"Sure" she smiled at him "I'll be right back"
"Can you believe it?" I asked him.
"That doesn't matter. So I can relax right? Freddie is not suspicious so I don't have to fear finding him in a random corner wanting to beat me?"
"Dude! What did I tell you? He doesn't know, and even if he did he has no reason to beat you! Now relax. How's things?"
"A mess" he sighed "I'm a mess"
"Yeah I can imagine" the waitress brought me my food "thank you"
"No problem" she smiled at him and left.
"What a bitch" I growled.
"Never mind" he took one of my fries and I slapped his hand "hey I'm paying I should get some!"
"It's mine, get your own. Anyway, you said you wanted to talk. Talk"
"Alright" he breathed.
"Come on Pete! Just talk to me" I squeezed his hand.
"You see the thing is…"
After my conversation with Pete I took off and left him to pay the bill. I didn't tell Freddie or Carly because I knew what it would sound like and because he begged me. Giving the situation, I wasn't on position to tell anyone, it didn't have the right. I walked into Carly's apartment to find her standing, hands on her hips, glaring at me.
"Where have you been?"
"Sleeping!" I plopped down on the couch.
"Liar!" she snapped.
"What is the matter with you?"
"You're lying, why are you lying?"
"I'm not"
"I called your house and your mom said you got a phone call and left early in the morning" she accused.
"Well…"
"No Sam! No well. No lies! Tell me the truth" she hollered. I can't do that. Fast Sam… think of a lie "I know about Pete"
"What?" how the hell did she found out? Oh my god this is a disaster.
"Brad heard you on the phone with him, after your anniversary Sam! The same night!" oh so that's why Brad is so weird with me.
"Carly…" I stood up, tried to touch her but she slapped my hand away.
"No Sam! I can't believe you! I thought you loved him!" whoa? What?
"Carly! I do love him! That's not what it looks like" I hollered "God I can't believe you! I would never do that to Freddie, I love him more than anything"
"Then what Sam? What is the secret you have with your ex boyfriend? What can it be?" she hollered.
"The secret…" I sighed "is not mine. I'm keeping a secret for him"
"What is it?" she gripped my shoulders "tell me"
"Do you remember that prank in the beginning of the semester?"
"Yeah"
"That one with the fire alarm and that a kid got hurt?"
"Yeah… they thought it was you"
"But it wasn't because I was in the study hall with Fredward, just eyesexing him while he studied?"
"Uh huh" she nodded.
"Well I found out it was Pete" her eyes went wide "anyway, he begged me to don't tell anyone, he wants to get into Princeton or something"
"Oh my god Sam! That boy got hurt! He could've died, you have to tell Franklin!"
"No! Carly I made I promise and I only told you because I trust you're not going to tell anyone! You can't, alright, it was an accident"
"But Sam…" I cut her off.
"No! Stop being miss goody two shoes for once okay! The kid is alright, he had a broken arm. I'm not going to ruin Pete's whole future. Besides, his grandma is sick, this will kill her!" I yelled.
"Oh. Okay, I'll keep the secret, but you have to stay away from him" she warned me "I'm not kidding Sam, if I find out that you're talking to him again, I'll tell everyone, got it?"
"Alright, but don't tell anyone about this"
"I have to tell Brad something, he is suspicious, that's why he is acting this way around you. He thinks you're cheating on Freddie"
"He is very protective of Freddie" I laughed "but you can't tell him"
"What should I say then? He is not going to stop until he finds out what's going on"
"Tell him I was talking to Pete because…" think of a lie… think, think "because I found out he was in love with Wendy, and he wanted me to help him get it her, but she has a boyfriend, and we can tell anyone because her boyfriend might kick his ass"
"That can work" she sighed and sit at the couch "I'll tell him that"
We just sat there quietly for a couple of minutes. I'm the best liar in the world. I can't afford having Brad on my back or telling shit to Freddie. Also can afford having Carly tell anything to anyone. I guess she believed me.
"Sam?" I looked at her "are you sure he's not using this to get close to you?"
"Carly, this is Pete not Jonah. And no, believe me, Pete doesn't want me" I laughed "but I'll keep a distance, I promise"
"Alright" she hugged me "I'm sorry I thought you would be cheating on Freddie. I know how much you love him, I just snapped"
"Okay" we broke apart.
"Brad is worried because Freddie is madly in love with you, we don't want him getting hurt. Or you"
"It's okay" I smiled sympathetically.
"Hey Car-" Brad trailed off when he saw me.
"Honey, we need to talk" Carly told him.
"I'm outta here" I didn't say goodbye; I just went across the hall and knocked at Freddie's door.
Freddie's POV
I'm mad. I'm mad. I'm mad. This is awful, now I'll look even more like a nerd. Shit! Why bad things happen to me? I sat on my bed and took a pill for my headache. Stupid headache. I hate it. I shouldn't gone to the doctor, now that I have I'm trapped, and my mother will bitch about it forever. I looked at my exams, and threw them across the room. Fuck! I threw myself at my bed.
"Fuck!" I hollered.
"Hello to you too" Sam said, knocking on my door.
"Hey" I growled.
"What's the matter? What did the doctor said?" she sat down next to me.
"I did a bunch of exams and then…" she looked horrified and very worried "don't worry I just… it's just…"
"What?" she started to freak out "what do you have?"
"Ineedglasses" I whispered.
"You what? What Freddie?" she hollered "is that a disease? Is that bad?"
"No Sam…" she obviously didn't understand what I said "I need glasses"
"What?" her mouth was hanging open.
"Apparently my vision is not all that good, so I'm having some trouble reading. That's why I'm having headaches, dizziness and my eyes are a little red" I was waiting for her to insult me nineteen different ways, but instead she smiled.
"Glasses? You're going to wear glasses? All the time?" her smile went wider.
"Yeah…" I was waiting to hear a laugh and a stupid comment "and no, I'm going to be wearing it just to read" she smiled and jumped on me "Sam!"
"I think…" she straddled me "that you…" she kissed my neck "will look…" she nibbled my earlobe "very hot…" she grinded her hips against mine "with glasses"
"Oh…" I shifted so I was on top of her "is that a fact?"
"Uh huh" she sighed "very much" I kissed the soft skin of her neck.
"I thought you would make fun of me" I commented, licking her collarbone inside her shirt.
"I…" she panted "like…" I sucked her earlobe "hot guys…" I bit her jaw "with glasses. You'll look even more like Clark Kent" she started to move her hips against mine.
"Oh… Sam" she wrapped her legs around me, and I kissed her, ravishing her mouth.
I broke the kiss to suck on her cleavage. Jesus she is so amazing! I want to have her, I need to have her. It became a physical need like breathing; an urge that's so strong is consuming me. I lifted her shirt and started to lick her navel. She panted and gripped my hair, so hard it hurt. I lowered my mouth to the hem of her jeans, and she released my hair to grip my thick bedspread.
"Freddie… oh god… just… open it!" she said begging me to undo her zipper.
"Alright" I unbuttoned her jeans and gripped her zipper with my teeth and undid that as well.
"Oh lord…" Sam writhed underneath me.
I kissed her lower stomach and slide her jeans just a little bit, enough to suck over her pelvic bone. She moaned louder, and I let my tongue lick the place I sucked seconds before. It was light red, so I sucked harder, trying to leave a mark. My mark. She gripped the collar of my shirt and brought me to her, ravishing my mouth the second I laid on top of her. My hand went inside her shirt to grope her boob.
"Holy shit!" Gun Smoke hollered from the door "my eyes hurt!"
"Dude!" I sat on the bed, putting Sam right behind me, covering her with my body.
"Boy, you don't do these things when your mother is in home" he said, eyes covered.
"We weren't doing anything and I didn't know mom was at home" I said in my defense. Sam smacked my head "what was that for?"
"For not knowing your mom was at home!" she smacked me again.
"We just got here. Are you decent?" he asked, eyes still closed.
"Yeah, we're decent" I told him.
"Boy! Cover that" he pointed at the erection inside my jeans.
"Oh…" Sam handed me the pillow laughing "not funny Sam"
"Yeah, not funny. Get your shit together before your mom gets out of the bathroom" then he left.
"Oh Benson…" she lay on my bed and cracked up "oh my gosh!"
"Not funny" I looked down at my pants, I wasn't hard anymore "let's go to Carly's"
I walked into Carly's apartment, with Sam laughing behind me. She wouldn't shut up about it. I thought she was going to crack in front of my mother, who we bumped into before exiting the apartment, but her laughter died and she kept her cool. Pleasing my mother never was Sam's priority, but lately she's been acting… civil around her, like she wants to leave a good impression or something. It pleases me if you wanna know.
"What's so funny?" Spencer asked me, since Sam was laughing so hard it seemed impossible for her to answer.
"Gun Smoke caught Fredward and me on our… intimate moment" Sam said, apparently I was wrong "and let's just say that our boy here was… a little too happy"
"Sam!"
"Oh my god! Did Gun Smoke saw it" Spencer asked, leaving his half eaten cupcake in the coffee table.
"Indeed!" Sam snatched Spencer's cupcake and ate it in one quick motion "did I mention that he was happy, cause he really was happy!"
"Dude!" Spencer grimaced.
"Sam!" I grabbed her by the waist and stepped in front of her "let's just not talk about it!"
"Sure, fine by me" Spencer's phone rang "Hey darling" I bet is Maya.
Maya is Spencer's new girlfriend. He met her in the grossure store, and turned out she lived the building in front of the Bushwell. I would say he is head over heels, but this is Spencer, he is just like Carly when it comes to love. He loves someone today, and someone else tomorrow. I don't know what's up with the Shays siblings, but he sure is giddy about this girl. She is awesome, pretty, redhead, funny and nice. Maybe she's a keeper… just like my girl. I looked over Sam, who was eating all of Spencer's cupcakes while he was lost on the bliss of talking to Maya. I guess I must've been lost in my thoughts , because next thing I know Spencer is running around the place and Sam is gripping my shoulders, shaking me.
"Did you hear this?" she asked me, a big smile on her face "did you hear this?"
"What?"
"Maya has a big house on the beach, we're going there for the 4th of July! She invited us! All of us" Spencer said, jumping behind Sam.
"Great but I don't think my mom will let me go, we never spent 4th of July apart" I shrugged.
"What? No! This is our first 4th of July as a couple; she'll have to let her go" Sam whined.
"Sam… we can talk to her, but I'm not sure if she'll let me go"
"NO! Then let's runaway, she doesn't have to know where we're going" her eyes lit up.
"I can't do that either" I sighed, Sam glared at me and ran upstairs "Sam!"
"Dude that was bad" Spencer said from behind me.
"But… Spencer… it's not like I don't want to go, it's more like I can't!"
"Just talk to your mom, tell her how important this is, if she refuses to understand, then stand up for yourself, you're a pretty grown up boy Freddie, it' time to cut the umbilical cord" this coming from Spencer? Jeez…
"You're right. I'll talk to her, this is way too important to just pass away. I'll talk to her right now" I left Spencer there, two thumbs up and prepared myself to battle.
Sam's POV
"This sucks! Why can he be a man and stand up to his mother? Why does he have to be mister two goody shoes all that time? Doesn't he see how important this is for me? For us?" I looked over to Carly, who was sitting on the floor, next to her bed. She seemed out of it, and a little concerned "Carly? Are you listening to anything I'm saying?"
"Huh?"
"I'm talking to you! What's your problem?" I sat down next to her.
"I'm late Sam" she said, not looking at me.
"Late for what?" I asked dumbly "Oh… you mean…"
"Yeah"
"I'm sure it will be here soon. I know it is not very nice, you get cranky and moody, but I'm sure it will be here soon" I smiled, giving her a sympathetic look.
"Yeah I'm sure. I'm sorry I didn't hear you"
"It's okay. I've been talking for twenty minutes and you're weren't listening, but it's alright" I put my arm around her.
"Sorry"
Freddie got into Carly's room running, his face was flushed, his cheeks were bright red and he was a little out of breath. Carly and I stood up and ran towards him.
"What happened?" I said, gripping his shoulders. He was breathless but he was smiling.
"I can go… with you… to… beach… mom… talked… I'm… going"
"What?" Carly asked.
"He says he can go with us" I just realized that myself, so I hugged him tight, arms wrapped around his neck "he can go!"
"Can't breathe… can't… Sam!" he said weakly "let go!"
"Sorry" I unwrapped my arms, and rested my hands on his shoulder "sorry, I'm just so happy" I kissed all of his face "this is going to be great AlFreddo"
"I know babe" he put his hands on my waist "let's pack. We'll leave tomorrow morning. I'm already packed so let me take you home and help you out"
"Let's go!" I sneaked a glance over Carly who was chewing on her lip, preoccupied. I need to talk to her tomorrow.
Carly's POV
Was hard convincing Spencer to let Brad come with us. Freddie did most of the work of begging him, because I'm too busy thinking about my own problems. Sam's been sneaking worried glances at me whenever she can, but I'm way too lost into my own head to care. I need to know for sure if there is something wrong, and I'm scared as hell, to be honest, I never been so terrified before n my life. Brad was sleeping next to me, his head on my shoulder. I looked over him. My sweet, sweet boyfriend, I brushed his bangs off his face and shifted a little bit. I'm sure going to lose him after he find out the truth, and if I'm really in trouble like I think I am, I'll lose him for sure. It's so unfair that after I find a great guy, I lose him because of something that happened before we got together.
Sam loved over her shoulder and caught me staring at Brad. I smiled at her like it was nothing, and she turned her head and her attention to Freddie, who was driving. Spencer agreed on letting us go in separated cars, after Freddie and Brad told him there was no way we all could ride in the same car. While Spencer, Maya, Gibby and Tasha went on his car, Sam, Brad Freddie and I went on another. Mrs. Benson seemed heartbroken when we left. She never spent a 4th of July away from her baby son, but Gun Smoke convinced her to go to Tacoma for the holyday to meet his mothers, which made her even scarier.
"Holy cow" Freddie said, parking in front of Maya's beach house. It was bigger than Wendy's "this is a huge house"
"I didn't know she was rich" Sam said.
"Oh she isn't, but she fell on a supermarket and broke her leg. So, she sue them and got some good money and bough the house" Freddie said. Sam and I looked over him, confused "what? Spencer told me"
"That's one smart girl. Let's get out of the car. Carly wake up prince charming there" Sam said opening the door.
"If he is prince charming than who am I?" Freddie asked, also exiting the car.
"You're the superman of the dorks" she smiled "like a Clark Kent of the nerds"
"Oh, I like that. At least I'm bad ass, not a puss who wears boots"
"I heard that!" Brad said, waking up "and you wear underwear over your clothes!" Brad mocked.
"Like every other super hero" Freddie replied.
"Please, don't tell me that wear underwear over your clothe is less stupid than wearing boots!" Brad said, getting out of the car.
"Yeah, I tell you!"
"Aright dorks! Calm your tits" Sam wrapped her arm around Freddie's waist "first of all, there is nothing wrong with wearing underwear over your clothe when you're a superhero and not a real person" Freddie smirked at Brad "secondly, there is nothing wrong with boots" Brad smirked at Freddie "what's wrong here is you both"
"What?" they said.
"That's right. You both are dorks, and your fight is stupid, now let's get into the house" she let go of Freddie "AlFreddo, get the bags out of the trunk"
"Why do I have to do it alone?" he whined.
"You don't, Bradloser here will help you. But I'm pretty sure you can do with alone with those guns" Sam smiled, squeezing Freddie's biceps.
"You know it" he kissed her.
"Okay Seddie break it off" Spencer said, walking towards us, holding Maya's hand "get the luggage and meet us inside, we're going to choose rooms, so be quick"
Freddie opened the trunk and Brad went to help him. He wasn't all convinced about the lie I told him, aka the lie Sam told me to tell him. He's very protective of Freddie, and Freddie is of him. I guess is because Freddie never had a best guy friend, and Brad always moved so much he didn't have any time to make real friends. I watched the boys laughing while talking our things out of the trunk. Soon this peace is going to be over. One way or another, Brad will find out what's happening and after that I'm not sure what's going to happen with us.
"Hey kid. Are you okay?" Sam asked, her arm over my shoulders.
"Yeah" I lied.
"No you're not, you can't lie to me. Let's talk upstairs"
Sam knocked Gibby to the ground and got herself the second best room in the house. She shoved me inside and told me to talk. I'm not sure of what to say, other than the truth, but the truth is scaring the hell out of me.
"I'm late Sam"
"I know that… oh my god Carly!" she sat on the bed "don't tell me you and Brad…"
"No. I haven't done anything with Brad…" I'm so ashamed.
"Then… you cheated on him?" she asked angrily "Carly!"
"No! I would never do that! It was before" it was time to come clean.
"Tell me everything"
"Okay. About a month ago, I was going to the Groovy Smoothies to meet you and Freddie. I got to the door, but I saw you guys, so cute together and I didn't want to spoil things for you. I confess that I started to feel like the third wheel, of course that changed. On my way home I met Griffin and we started to talk all the way to the Bushwell. The next day he called me and we talked for hours. I found out he had a girlfriend, he told me he was having a hard time with her, because he wanted to break up but every time he did, she would cry and tell him that if he left her she would kill herself. We started to hook up" she looked at me like she couldn't believe it "and he promised me that he would find a way to break up with her, but he needed a proof that I loved him so…" I trailed off, by the look on Sam's face I didn't need to say anything else "but then I found out she wasn't a maniac like he said and that he wasn't planning on break up with her. She actually is a nice chick…" my eyes started to tear up, regretting what I did "when I confronted him, he told me that all he wanted from me was… you know. That broke me, but I didn't tell anyone because I was so ashamed. Then Brad came along and I really like him… but now, I don't know what will happen…" by now I was already crying.
"Carly… I really thought you were smarter than that"
"Me too…" I sobbed "I don't know what to do Sam…"
"Come here kid" I buried my face on her shoulder "I still can't believe you let yourself be fooled like that"
"I was lonely and desperate to have what you and Freddie have. I wanted everlasting love and all this things that you say you don't need, but you have with Freddie, and I don't. I want that too… I guess I was looking in the wrong place"
"So now you think…" she trailed off.
"Yeah, but I don't have the guts to go buy a test" I wiped my tears.
"Okay, I have enough guts for both of us, so wait for me here, and I'll go the closest store and buy you one, okay?" she rubbed my arm.
"You're the best friend ever" I sobbed, throwing my arms around her neck.
"Yeah, I know. Now, let me go" I released her "I'll be right back okay? I'll tell everyone you're taking a shower alright? So they won't bug you"
"Okay"
After Sam left, I laid on my bed in a fetal position. Ironic huh? I'm so scared. I'm scared out of my mind, I have no idea what I will do if I'm pregnant… I don't even want to think about it, but I know for sure I'll lose Brad. It's all that I don't want.
Sam's POV
I told everyone Carly was taking a shower and that she had a case of PMS that only could be solved with sweet popcorn and jelly beans. Of course no one had it on the house so I just told them I would buy it. Freddie wanted to come with me, but I told him he needed to put my bags in the room. Of course he protested, so I grabbed the key and walked away ignoring him. The driving lessons Freddie gave me earlier in January paid off. I didn't have a license but I know how to drive and that's enough for me. I was a little nervous, because if Carly is really pregnant it means Armageddon is about to happen. Nobody could ever imagine Carly Shay being pregnant before me in high school, they usually bet I'll be getting pregnant before graduation, which I don't plan to. Of course one day I wanna have blond haired brown eyed babies, but that's in a far away future.
I walked into the pharmacy and looked around. There was no one but the old lady in the counter, she smiled at me and I smiled back. This is the most embarrassing moment of my life, but Carly needs me and I won't chicken out.
"How can I help you young lady?" the nice lady asked me.
"I need… a… I need a…" I was so nervous I couldn't help but stutter.
"You need a…?"
"A pregnancy test" I whispered.
"Oh" I saw her expression change "I see…" she turned around and grabbed a pink box "this one is the best"
"Thanks, I'll take it" I said grabbing Freddie's wallet that I stole before coming here.
She gave me a stern look but handed me the test when I gave her the money. Great! Now some old lady that I don't even know is eye judging me, kudos to Sam, who just has to help everyone! I came back to the house as fast as I could and ran to Carly's room. In the hallway I bumped into Spencer, and the plastic bag I was holding fell on the floor. Oh shit!
"Sam? What's…" he bent down to pick the box off the floor.
"NO! Spencer!" I tried to retrieve the little box, but he was way taller.
"What's that?" he asked sharply "what does that mean Samantha?" the full name… shit… I'm in trouble, but I can't tell him is Carly's I can't! "Is this yours?"
"It's mine" I lied, but at the same moment those words escaped my mouth I regretted.
"Sam..." Spencer ran his hands thru his hair "Oh my god!"
"Spencer, stop okay? I need you to shut up about it. You can't tell anyone"
"But Freddie..."
"Especially Freddie" this could get me some serious problems with Freddie "you have to promise!"
"Sam, how could you be so reckless" he hollered "how could he be so reckless?"
"Keep it down okay?" I took a deep breath "listen you can't tell him"
"Did you take the test already?"
"No. So shut up" I walked into Carly's room not looking back.
"You got it?" she asked, jumping off the bed.
"Yeah, but Spencer saw it"
"WHAT?" she freaked out.
"Calm down I told him it was mine" I sat on the edge of the bed.
"Oh my god Sam!" Carly started to walk around the place "this is bad, this is really bad!"
"Shay stop! He is not going to tell anyone, now take the test alright?" I handed her the pink box.
"Oh my god Sam, I'm so scared" she said, sitting next to me.
"Everything is going to be alright Carly. No matter what the result is I'll be here for you. Always" I rubbed her arm.
"I confess that I didn't expect to be pregnant in high school" she mused "and I always thought that if one of us would be pregnant that would be you. No offense"
"None taken, I was thinking that myself. I guess I would be if I wasn't with a gentleman like Freddie" I shrugged.
"Yeah... I'm going to pee on the stick" she shook the box and stood up "will you wait with me?"
"Always. Now go. Go, go, go" I shoved her towards the bathroom.
I'm scared shitless, I never thought Carly of all girls that I know would be getting pregnant in high school. She is so good, so... perfect. I always thought I would be the knocked up one, but seems like I was wrong. What am I doing? I don't even know if she is! But either way, this is bad. I'm not sure what's going to happen if she is really knocked up. What will Spencer do? Mr. Shay? Grandpa Shay? Griffin...? Brad...? Poor Brad, this will ruin him. I hope Spencer keep his mouth shut.
