Sorry for the delay on this story. I've been busy and have had major writer's block. Hopefully you'll like this :)
i don't own iCarly.
Sam flew back the next day to Seattle after hugging Carly good bye for the 5th time. They promised to keep in touch and meet up some time soon.
Carly sat in her dorm room once again alone. She picked up the pictures of her and Sam that they took today at the airport in a picture booth and put them on her wall. If she was going to be missing her sister, at least she could see her on the wall. Spring break would be over in a few days and then she would once again be consumed by massive homework assignments and still finishing the internship with Bryan. She told Bryan, well more like Sam did, that she was better off without personal things getting in the way of work. Carly didn't know if he agreed or not; she only knew what Sam had told her.
Carly seriously started thinking about going back to Seattle just for a few days. She knew it wouldn't be easy going back but it might be worth a shot. First she'd need to tell Spencer that she was coming. He never did really good with surprises, especially one like this.
"Hello?" Spencer answered the phone. "Who is this?"
"Spencer it's me."
"Who's me?"
"Spencer!"
"Carly! Oh wow kiddo! How's life?" Spencer sounded very shocked, which made Carly smile just a little bit. She did like surprising people. Carly kept talking to Spencer about what had happened the past few days. She told him that she missed him a lot and that her need to go back was getting greater by the day.
"Carly, you need to come home. Switch schools. Do something. I know I'm just your brother-"
"Spencer…"
"No let me finish. I do need you here. Call me crazy, but I do."
"Well, how about I come there for a little bit, check things out and then decide?" She hesitated, not sure if she wanted to switch schools or not. This was kind of like when she had the opportunity to switch schools in high school. Carly giggled a little thinking of how her friends sabotaged her interview though.
"When should I expect you, kiddo?"
"Soon. Very soon." They said goodbye and hung up. Carly felt relieved after talking to him and started packing up her things.
Meanwhile, Sam was just finishing unpacking her things in Seattle. She had brought Freddie something and needed to give it to the nub. So she left a note for her mom, who was always at some guy's house, and went to Freddie's place. She pounded on the door and almost smashed Freddie in the face when he opened it.
"Sam? What's going on? You didn't reply to all my calls," he crossed his arms, obviously annoyed at her.
"Yeah about that…I was busy. So anyway, I got you this." She pulled out a t-shirt from behind her and handed it to him.
"You actually bought this?"
"Well no, my boyfriend did, but it's the thought that counts right?"
"Yeah sure."
"Look Freddork, I have something I need to ask you. It's serious," Sam sobered up and looked at him. "Do you love Carly?"
"Of course. I've never stopped."
"Even since 6th grade? That's like 7 years now!" She sat down outside his door, leaning against the wall.
"Yes I'm aware of that. I can't stop loving her, and I've tried to Sam. But I just can't stop."
Sam didn't say anything for a while and Freddie didn't try to get any information out of her. It's not often she was this serious in the first place.
"I saw her."
