In the Forest
By Freddie's watch it was now 3.29a.m. Sam's shivering had stopped and her headache was gone she was now resting on Freddie. Freddie on the other hand wasn't doing so great. His head was starting to feel tight, like someone was squeezing it. And the little he could see with no light was starting to spin dangerously.
Stop it! Sam needs me...he told himself
Sam had noticed that Freddie was pinching his nose, eyes closed and taking very deep breaths.
"Are you ok...Freddie...Look at me...Freddie!" Shaking his head to try and clear it he look at her eventually.
"Yea Sam I'm fine...really...a small headache...don't worry" She gave him a look before nodding and lying back down. Freddie could feel the pressure in his head getting worse, but he would just have to cope with it for now.
An hour and a half later Freddie was still nursing his headache. Sam was now asleep and Freddie was watching her breathing, inhaler in hand, incase another attack came. He knew it would be light soon so they wouldn't need to be here very long more. It was only when Sam fell onto his stomach he realised it was sore. Feeling around he winced when he reached the left side.
Must have hurt it in the fall. He thought looking up. Not knowing it was there was good because now he had noticed it, he couldn't find away to sit without hurting it. Eventually he lay down, Sam's head on his shoulder, and took deep breaths.
The whole night he had avoided the issue of whether Sam loved him or not. He had never thought about Sam that way before.
I mean she's Sam...The girl who beats me up...The blonde headed daemon who made my life miserable...
He then realised she didn't. Since starting iCarly nearly 3years ago he had never been happier. He had friends, he was going out more and he wasn't stuck in with his mother telling her he had homework when really he was in his room, crying because his life sucked. He had burned the journals he kept in those days knowing if anyone saw them they would think he was weird. And every time Carly had turned him down was just another reminder of bad his life was.
And then suddenly he had friends, or well Carly at first, but he and Sam's love-hate relationship was fun. He realised he actually enjoyed it when they fought because that was their thing. They never really hated each other. He now considered her one of his best friends. He had his first kiss with her aswell.
Looking down at Sam something changed. He was finally looking at her. She wasn't Sam the bully; she was Sam the teenage girl who needed friends just as much as he did. Freddie knew Sam's life was no picnic when she met Carly. Leaning over he kissed the top of her head. He looked down and noticed her lips had formed a small smile. As soon as she woke he would tell her how he felt.
Me and Sam Puckett, now there's a couple I never thought I would see. He laughed to himself, immediately regretting it. His stomach was now in pain and he couldn't help but wince as it shot through his abdomen. Sarah was jostled from her sleep.
"Huh? Freddie what's going on..." But Freddie wasn't listening or couldn't hear her. When he laughed the pain got ten times worse and now it wasn't going away. He panted for air as the pain worsened. Through half closed eyes Freddie could see Sam talking but he couldn't hear her. He felt like he was dying but he had to tell her how he felt.
Using ass his energy left, and it wasn't much, he reached his hand up to her face, placing it on her cheek as another wave of pain struck and he was again gasping for air.
Sam held his hand to her cheek. Ignoring the pain in her ankle sat up next to Freddie stoking his hair saying over and over "It's ok, it's ok. I'm here Freddie...I'm here." turning her head to kiss his hand. Freddie look like he was about to pass out. The sun was just coming up to her right but it was still fairly dark.
Freddie managed to hold Sam's face and was only able to "Love...yo..." before Sam was on him. For the minute they're lips were together he totally forgot his pain. He had never felt so good in all his life and unlike their first kiss which was sweet this was different. If he really was dying then he want Sam to know how he felt. But before he knew it, darkness was setting in and he could feel himself getting weaker until there was nothing.
