A/N: Okay so here's the next chap of iJe T'aime.
To I'm Random, I'm sorry if the previous chapter was a let down for you. I'm really sorry you feel that way but that's the way I planned it to keep it fresh.
Anyway, beginning in normal POV but changes to Sam's POV midway. Enjoy.
Suspicion
They were driving back to Paris with Philip. It was already pretty late and Sam was sort of falling asleep. She had decided to sit in the back seat with Freddie this time. Freddie assumed it was because the back seat allowed her to lie down since her legs were across his laps.
Freddie watched as Sam's eyes closed and then jerked open, repeatedly, trying to stay awake. He smile and looked out the window, watching the scenery pass. He too slowly began to slip into dreamland. He rubbed his eyes and turned to a now snoring Sam, He smiled and he rubbed her shin.
He could see Philip through the rear view mirror taking glances at them. He smirked to himself, knowing that he won this round but still found it a little suspicious. Freddie laid his head back, trying to think of a way to completely win Sam over. He thought and slowly drifted off to sleep.
"Hey guys wake up." Philip called from the driver's seat. "You're back at you're hotel." Freddie opened his eyes and the light of the street lamps burned his eyes. He squinted to allow his eyes to adjust as Sam removed her legs from his lap. Philip got of the Car and opened Sam's door allowing a sleepy Sam to stumble out. I followed suit by stumbling out myself, almost tripping while I did so.
"You guys can make it back to you're room alone right?" Philip asked. Sam merely nodded. "Well, then see you tomorrow." He said and got in his car before driving off.
Sam and Freddie trudged into the lobby and proceeded to the elevator. If people didn't know, they would have mistaken them for a drunken couple. They entered the elevator and pressed the fifth level button. Freddie glanced at his watch, noticing it was already 10.05. The elevator door opened and they made their way to their room.
Freddie opened the door and walked in, proceeding to the bathroom straight away. Sam went to the couch and sat down. In the bathroom, Freddie took a handful of cold water and splashed his face with it, instantly waking him up. He wiped off his face with a dry towel and exited the bathroom.
He glanced out the bedroom door and saw Sam sitting on the couch with the television on. He turned back into the room and picked up his laptop and turned it on.
Once it booted up he brought up IM and clicked on Carly's name before setting up a video call with her.
"Hey Carly." Freddie said when Carly's picture appeared on screen.
"What took you so long? You're…" Carly glanced at her clocked. "Fifteen minutes late."
"I know. We just got back so I couldn't come online any sooner."
"Wow you guys were out late. Care to explain?" Carly asked with a smirk across her face.
"Ugh, I'd rather not." Freddie said.
"It's okay, I'll get it out of you soon." Carly said. "So how's operation GHASTLY going?" Freddie cocked an eyebrow.
"What's operation GHASTLY?" he inquired.
"You know, operation 'Get Ham Adoring Sam To Like You'." Carly said.
"Only someone like you could come up with that." Freddie said and rolled his eyes. "But it seems I have encountered an obstacle."
"Really? What?"
"Well you see, we met this guy here and I think Sam likes him." Freddie said.
"Oh, so are you jealous?" Carly asked.
"Oh course I'm jealous, I'm not afraid to admit it. How can I not be jealous when a handsome Brench guy is taking away the girl of my dreams?" Freddie whisper shouted.
"Wait what is Brench?" Carly asked.
"Oh it's a mixture of French and British. Or you could argue it's Fritish but that doesn't sound too nice."
"Okay hold on, is the guy British or French?"
"A little of both. He is French but he has been living in Britain. I mean how can I compete with that. He has that British accent and the romantic personality of a French. He's like a lady vacuum, sucking in every girl around."
"Oh I know what you mean." Carly smiled and picture Philip in her mind.
"You can stop drooling now Carly." Carly rolled her eyes. "And the worst part is that Sam doesn't even see that I'm jealous."
"It's okay Freddie. It's okay." Freddie sighed. Little did he know that Sam was at the door, listening to the entire conversation. She had wanted to get something from her bag when she heard Freddie talking so she decided to eavesdrop.
She couldn't believe what she heard. Not the Freddie jealous part, she could tell Freddie was jealous, but the part where he thought she didn't know.
"Am I really that mean that I have to torture Freddie like that? I mean I like Philip and all but not like the way I think I feel about Freddie. Oh man, now I'm feeling guilty again." Sam thought.
Sam's POV
The next day was a simple one. We were going shopping around the city with Philip. The guilt from the previous night was still killing me, so I decided to pay more attention to Freddie today.
We walked down the street past shops of all sorts. I could see that Freddie hardly spoke whenever Philip was around. I never thought that the jealousy was that bad. I felt bad for ignoring him the previous day so I went up to him and held his hand.
At first he was shocked by my action but then he smiled. We stopped outside a large shopping mall.
"Wow this place is huge." I said. Freddie simply nodded beside me. "Well what are we waiting for." I said.
"Umm, you guys go ahead first, I've got to umm…do something." Philip said.
"Okay." I replied turning to the entrance.
"Wait!" I turned back to Philip and he tossed something at me. I catched it in my hands and looked at the cell phone sitting in my palm. "For me to contact you guys so I can find you. It is a big mall."
"Oh okay, but how will you call us if you give us your phone?" I asked. He waved a second phone in his hand and I understood straight away.
"Well let's go." I said to Freddie before pulling him behind me into the mall. Time flew in there. Philip had taken around 45 minute to do whatever he was doing and met up with us. We spent almost the whole day shopping.
Before I knew it, it was already 5.30 in the evening. We were heading back to the hotel. The car was filled with gifts and souvenirs for everyone back home. We stopped outside the hotel and went up to the room and Philip followed this time to help carry the stuff. I could see that Freddie was at least happier that yesterday and that helped remove some of the guilt.
"Wow you guys sure can shop." Philip said as he placed the stuff around the room.
"Yeah, well we promised people back home a few gifts." I said.
"I would say that this qualifies as more than a few." Freddie said pointing at the numerous bags of stuff. We all laughed a little before Philip started talking.
"Well, I better get going." Philip said.
"Okay then. Bye." I said as he exited the door.
I turned to Freddie who now looked slightly uneasy. "Um what's wrong. Are you okay?"
"Oh umm, yeah just a little stomach ache. Oh and I'm kind of hungry, would you mind going to get me some muffin from the bakery down the street?" Freddie asked. I normally wouldn't do it but since I owed him that much I agreed.
"Aren't you coming?" I asked.
"Umm, no I really need to use the bathroom." He said clutching his stomach. Something about it didn't seem right. "Umm maybe you could catch up with Philip and he can go with you."
"Oh…okay." I was getting really suspicious now. Why would Freddie WANT me to go with Philip? I walked out of the room and managed to catch Philip at the lobby.
"Hey Philip." I shouted. He turned to me and raised an eyebrow.
"Umm what are you doing here?"
"Oh Freddie wanted some muffins from the bakery down the street. You like to come with me?" I asked.
"Wait he asked you to go buy stuff? And why didn't he follow you?" he asked.
"He said he has a stomach ache or something."
"Oh I see." I turned his head away from me and I could see a small smirk on his face. "Well then let's go."
We walked down the street. I was really getting suspicious of both Freddie and Philip. After I got the muffins, we were on our way back to the hotel. However Philip took me a long way so we ended up 10 minutes longer than when we went there. We stood outside the hotel.
"So are you coming up? We have muffins." I said holding up the box in my hands.
"I would love to but I umm…need to umm…go…go see my mum. Yeah see my mum." He said. He was acting really nervous or something.
"Okay." I said dragging the word. "Well see you soon." He nodded and I walked into the lobby and proceeded to the room.
I knocked on the door, hoping Freddie would open the door for me but there was no answer. I took out my card key and unlocked the door. To my surprise the room was dark, except for a strange looking light coming from around the corner. A partition wall was blocking my view so I couldn't see what the source of the light was.
I walked further into the room. "Freddie?" I called but there was no answer. I turned the corner and finally saw what was in front of me. My mouth hung agape.
A/N: Oh another evil cliffhanger. So what do you think she saw? And Philip, he's acting pretty suspicious. Do you think he's a bad or good guy. Please tell me your answers in the review. I would really like to know. So please review.
