Chapter 23 (Moving Day)
Freddie opened his eyes and groaned, his head was resting on something soft, it felt like a pair of legs. He focused his vision and saw himself staring into the sad eyes of his one and only love. He was still outside, so he probably wasn't out for very long. Sam looked like she was crying, or at least she had tears rolling down her face.
"Wow, I must have hit heaven," Freddie said with a subtle smirk. "I think I have, because I see a very beautiful angel. She has golden hair and blue eyes to match the oceans and the seas. Only, why is it that the beautiful oceans seem to be leaking, dripping the blue from her eyes?" Sam chuckled lightly and bent down, holding Freddie close to her. "Ah, Sam, what are you doing out here in this weather? Isn't it at all chilly for you?" Sam rolled her eyes and shook her head, she really didn't care about the weather at such a time.
"Freddie, I came to see if you had returned home and I saw you lying here on the grass," Sam replied as she ran her hand through her hair. "I'm not sure what happened, but please, if you fell asleep in the grass, don't do that." Freddie laughed and slowly stood up. He rubbed his head and winced in slight pain, apparently he hit his head pretty hard when he hit the ground. Sam placed her hands on her legs and gave a tired sigh. "So, do you want to tell me what happened? I think Carly went home some time ago. You've also been out for a while."
"That old man cold-cocked me." Freddie rubbed his neck and groaned. "He knocked me out…but anyway, I figured out why the bastard is taking Carly away. Apparently he wants to take her away from me, as I pose a threat to her. I think he also wants to train her to not like me. Truthfully, I wouldn't mind if she didn't like me, I just don't want her to dislike you..." Sam smiled and shook her head.
"Don't be concerned, you and I both know it would take a lot for her not to like me or you."
"Yeah, well he's also searching for my future girlfriend, and I believe he thinks it is a girl named Angel." Sam laughed lightly and slowly stood up, she was just glad that Freddie was okay. "He'll never find out, nobody can find out our secret."
"Of course not." Sam smiled and wrapped her arms around Freddie's neck, he smirked and placed his hands on her back, pulling her close to him.
"Ah, the warmth of your body…" Freddie took Sam's arm and pulled it around, he then took hold of her hand and lightly kissed her fingertips. "I love you, I adore you, there is nothing about you that isn't loveable." Sam blushed as Freddie placed his fingers under her chin and tilted her head. He then kissed her neck and held her closer, she had to wonder what was getting him to act this way, but she loved it.
"Ooh, you're insane. You're such a good kisser, I love it!" Freddie smirked as he held her and began kissing her more. He moved his head toward her earlobe and kissed it, making a very soft sucking sound. Freddie smirked and decided to try another kiss technique on her. He brought his lips very close to hers and licked her lips very slowly, he then brought his lips back slightly and blew on them, sending a cooling sensation through Sam's body. Goosebumps formed as a result. "Freddie, are you trying to seduce me? Did that bump on the head injure you at all?"
"If I wanted to seduce you, I would try this kiss." Freddie smirked and Sam raised her eyebrow as he embraced her lips with his. He then, ever so gently, nibbled onto Sam's neck, sending an almost erotic sensation through her body. When he released, Sam gave a soft moan, she still wanted to know what got him acting this way. "Next, we have what is wonderfully called the 'teaser kiss.'"
"Freddie Benson, if you start teasing me…" Freddie smirked and gently kissed her forehead. Then he gave a sweet and soft kiss on her lips, took her arm and started kissing it until reaching her hand. The sensation of his lips on her skin caused goosebumps to form, she placed her hand on her chest and sighed. He then kissed from her hand and back up her arm, then he trailed his lips to her neck and face. Finally, he started to give very light kisses to her lips, teasing her into wanting a passionate kiss. "Oh come on, those kisses can't be it…I know you have something more…" Freddie smirked and pulled her tight against his body, causing her to yelp in surprise. He then gave her a very passionate kiss. She wrapped her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.
They then separated their lips and looked into each other's eyes. Her eyes were questioning and wondering, and his were soft, gentle, and seductive at the same time. Freddie exhaled and Sam closed her eyes as she felt his warm breath beat against her face. He smiled softly and kissed Sam's forehead. "I woke up in great pain, I saw your face and the pain went away. It looked like you were in pain, though, so I decided that I would kiss you and make that pain go away."
"Freddie, I wasn't in pain." Sam couldn't help but smile at him, she still loved what he had just done. Of course, she accepted it because he was her lover. "You sure did surprise me, though. Those were some of the best kisses I've had. It seems like your kisses get better every time we kiss." Freddie chuckled lightly and tilted his head, still gazing into her beautiful eyes. "I wonder about that, how is it possible that you seem to love me more each time?"
"Because not a day goes by that I don't love you more than yesterday and less than tomorrow. I think about you every day, and every day I want to love you. Plus, I've had great practice. I experiment on you, and if the kiss works, I'll use it again and make it better than the last."
"I see." Sam smiled lightly and gently kissed Freddie's chin. "Well then…we should probably go check up on Carly." Freddie nodded in agreement and the two made their way toward the apartment.
-NEW SCENE-
The trio were sitting around in the iCarly studio, trying to calm Carly down as she paced the floor.
"I don't want to leave!" Carly said in a quick voice. Sam was messing around with Freddie's electronic equipment and Freddie was sitting in another section of the room, cleaning his camera. Carly continued to pace the floor and Sam merely shook her head. She didn't want Carly to leave either, even though her staying meant she could pretty much kiss Freddie whenever she wanted to. However, she still cared about Carly as her best friend, and was trying to think of possible ways to calm her down.
"Carly, would you just relax?" Sam asked while pressing a few buttons on the keyboard.
"I will relax once my granddad thinks Spencer is a responsible adult!"
"Yeah, good luck with that." Sam sighed and slowly shook her head. "If only that were the reason."
"Hey! Would you keep your hands off my equipment?" Freddie asked as he looked over to Sam.
"I could, but I don't think I will." Sam smirked and began playing around with his equipment. Carly blinked and slowly shook her head as Freddie started to walk around her and head toward Sam. What he wanted to do was go ahead and somehow flirt with her. Over time, Freddie and Sam learned how to flirt with each other, and not give away their secret.
The elevator door opened and Spencer stepped out, he was wearing a very bad looking suit. Everyone gathered around him and gave a pitiful sigh, it was his attempt at showing Tyrone that he was a mature and responsible adult. "Why didn't he just go out and buy a new suit?" Freddie shook his head and shrugged his shoulders. He then looked at Sam and she looked at him, both began to flirt with their eyes. It was like a hidden code that only they had. Soon, the doorbell rang and everyone started walking toward the door. "Smells like your granddad."
"You smell like garbage," Sam said while smirking. Freddie turned around and smirked, staring into her eyes.
"Your butt's shaped like ham." Freddie held his smirk and Sam raised her eyebrow and took a step forward. She was thinking of all the things she was going to do to him, and he knew he was in for some making out later. That's what the look in her eyes told him. Carly sighed and stepped in.
"Hey, no fighting," Carly stated. Sam and Freddie both sighed and left the loft, heading downstairs. Carly knew her friends didn't want to see Tyrone, but she didn't know why. Of course, she too didn't really want them around while he was. "Quick, out the back way!"
"Okay!" Freddie and Sam quickly ran out the back door, Sam ran back in and grabbed a plate of fruit before heading out. They continued to run before stopping toward the end of the hall. Freddie looked over at Sam and smirked, she returned the smirk.
"Okay, now about that ham butt comment." Sam placed the tray of food on the ground and narrowed her eyes.
"Yes, beautiful? Actually, I think it works well for you." Freddie chuckled nervously and Sam's smirk grew devious.
"I am going to pin you to that wall-"
"I don't think you can." Freddie smirked and Sam raised her eyebrow. "After all, I'm the one with a more muscular physique since I've been working out often."
"No difference, watch me!" Sam charged toward Freddie, but he quickly took her wrists and quickly, but gently pressed her against the wall. She gasped and he smirked while gazing into her eyes.
"What did I tell you?"
"Damn!"
"I win, I pinned down the ever tough and beautiful Sam Puckett." She heaved a breath and started to pant.
"So, what are you going to do now?"
"Kiss you." Freddie kissed her lips as she pressed her palms against the wall, she moaned lightly and soon wrapped her arms around his neck. As the kiss deepened, she lifted her leg and wrapped it around his waist. He moved his lips back and kissed her neck, causing her to press the top of her head against the wall and squeal.
"F-Freddie, our best friend may be moving and we're making out in the hallway. Shouldn't we be mourning or something?"
"I'm thinking of a plan."
"You're kissing me, how is that thinking of a plan?" Sam panted and Freddie gave her a gentle nip on the neck, it was more in an area hidden by her shirt. "Ah! I think you just gave me a hickey…"
"They won't see it." Sam smirked and felt Freddie start to kiss her shoulder. Soon he stopped and gazed into Sam's eyes. "You know, as much as I'd love to continue, we should probably stop here…"
"Yeah, good idea." Sam's chest heaved as she took deep breaths, she could feel her heart racing at a million beats per second. "We don't…we don't want to go too far."
"Of course not, and I love you too much to do that to you." Sam smiled and lowered her leg as Freddie released her. He took her hand in his and continued to gaze lovingly at her. "What would I do if I let Gramps Shay to win? He'd take you away from me, I don't think I could bear such a thing."
"What are we going to do? We can't let him take Carly away."
"Of course we can't, he might train her to hate us…or hate me. I will never give him your name."
"Why?"
"Because I don't want him to do a thing to you. It's bad enough they know me, but if they knew you, just think of the danger you'd be in."
"I love how concerned you are about me, but I don't think you need to worry too much."
"Yes, yes I do. You're my whole world, to lose you would be to lose the world. I need you with me. I love you because I need you. As corny as the line sounds, you complete me and make me who I am. Without you, I would be nothing. I wouldn't dare risk my entire world."
"Freddie." Sam wrapped her arms around his neck and placed her chin on his shoulder as tears started to form in her eyes. "I love you."
-NEW SCENE-
Freddie and Sam stood next to Carly's locker and helping her to move her stuff into a box. It was an emotional time for her, as well as the others, but no one was going to show any tears. Nobody had thought of a really good plan yet, so as for now, Carly was still on her way to Yakima. "I can't believe you're really moving," Sam said in a sad voice.
"Well believe it, because it's happening," Carly replied. She seemed frustrated and angry with the turn of events. Not only that, she didn't really want to leave Freddie and Sam, plus she still had her crush on him. Freddie sighed as Carly put the items in the box, he really didn't like Tyrone. He couldn't stand the man, there was nothing good about him, and definitely nothing about him could be trusted. "Spencer should never have even brought out that stupid fan of hammers."
"You know something," Freddie said while narrowing his eyes. "I ought to tell your grandfather a thing or two." Sam rolled her eyes and glanced at Freddie.
"If only you knew a thing or two." She agreed with him, she wanted to yell and shout at Tyrone for attempting to ruin their lives. It seemed pretty much set that he was ruining everyone's life and making a living hell out of everything. "I'm guessing we can't do the show anymore…"
"Well if I'm in Yakima, it's going to be pretty hard," Carly replied. Sam sighed and rubbed her chin, trying to think of something, anything that could pop up in her mind. Then it did.
"Hey, what if you did something really bad and Spencer got upset?" Freddie smirked and nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, cause then Spencer would freak out and yell at me right in front of Granddad!"
"We're going to enjoy this…"
-NEW SCENE-
Sam was at the mall when she got a phone call from Freddie, he was frantic and wondering where she was, since he hadn't told her where she was at. He thought she was in the apartment, and now everyone was in the lobby but her. "Sam! Where are you? The Shay's apartment caught on fire, we're all in the lobby, I hope you're not still in the apartment building."
"No, I'm leaving the mall now," Sam said as she quickly started to run out the mall doors and down the streets. "Is everyone okay?"
"Yeah, nobody's seriously hurt, but Lewbert is kind of freaking out."
"Well that seems a bit obvious, he needs some serious help. Though, I am glad to know that he's not the guy that killed my father."
"Yeah…oh, damn, I have to hang up now. By the way, the plan didn't go so well."
"Fire in the Shay apartment, I don't think it would have worked out well at all." Freddie made a mock laughing sound as he hung up. Sam quickly made her way into the doors. Freddie was right, the lobby was crowded with people. Emily looked over at her and smiled, thankful to see Sam was okay. First, Sam stopped by Carly to see how she was. "So, the plan didn't work…"
"No," Carly said while letting out a sigh. "I told my granddad they were fake…Spencer thought I looked good, so I'm moving to Yakima, and then the chicken burst into flames."
"Ugh." Emily was watching with a sad look, next to her was Tyrone. She had to keep from punching him in the face and he made sure not to start nitpicking at her culture and lifestyle. Sam then walked over toward Freddie, hoping that he was okay. Emily walked over with her and held up a bottle of hand lotion, pretending it was tick lotion.
"So this was your fault," Emily said in a quick voice. "Because of you I had to stop in the middle of Freddie's tick bath!" Sam smiled at Emily's demeanor, she loved how well the woman was at acting.
"Mom, I don't have ticks!" Freddie protested. Emily's eyes widened and she gave a quick and concerned look toward her son.
"They hide in your leg hair!"
"I don't have leg hair." He did have leg hair, and it was growing fast, but he just decided to keep the play going.
"This worries me deeply!" Sam smirked and looked at Freddie, knowing Lewbert was right behind them, so they kept up the act.
"Anti tick lotion?" Sam asked while turning her smirk into a grin. Freddie rolled his eyes and groaned as he looked to Sam.
"It's precautionary!"
"I bet it is." Lewbert rolled his eyes and groaned as he glanced up.
"Hey, I don't care if you two make out or flat out do it on the lobby, but would you not yell?" Lewbert asked. Freddie smirked and crossed his arms over his chest.
"That would entertain to loud noises as well," Freddie said while tilting his head. "Yet, we're trying to abstain. By the way, how is your brother doing? Have you talked to him since he got put in jail?"
"No, and I'm not making any plans to talk to him. I hate him with a passion."
"That's fine by us."
After everything was clear, everyone went to their rooms. Sam and Freddie followed Carly into her apartment, they felt sick to their stomachs. They wanted to tell off Tyrone, but they couldn't. Instead, they remained silent and sat on the stools while Carly remained in front of them. Freddie figured that Carly would have to move on, and he knew Sam was incredibly sad about this. He would be having to help build up her spirits after Carly was gone. The good thing was at least they still had each other.
Freddie hopped off the stool and gave Carly the first hug. "Be strong, Freddie," Freddie said in a quiet voice. He wasn't pretending to like her, he was saying that because he knew he would have to be strong whenever Sam cried over the fact that her best friend had gone away. He moved back and it was Sam's turn to say goodbye.
"So, who will I blame when I put lobsters in Mrs. Briggs's car?" Sam asked.
"Would you at least try to stay out of trouble while I'm gone?" Carly asked. Freddie smirked and knew the answer to that was no.
"No." Sam smirked and Carly let out a sigh as Sam gave her a final hug. Once released, she stepped behind Freddie and smirked.
"Uh-oh, she's planning something," Freddie thought. Tyrone walked up to Carly and frowned, he looked like he was getting ready to give up on taking Carly. Of course, he didn't feel to proud, he just got through talking to Emily and needed to think about whether or not she was serious. Sam then pushed Freddie forward. "No!" Freddie shouted and his arms wrapped around Carly's leg, he groaned and felt like passing out on the spot.
"Freddie, let go of my leg," Carly stated.
"I got him," Sam responded as she wrapped her arms around Freddie and pulled him back. Freddie glared at her and she smirked. "What are you going to do about it?"
"We'll see." Freddie shrugged and crossed his arms. "Sorry, I lost my cool for a second."
"Can't lose what you never had." Sam was eager to egg him on, hoping to get a rise out of him. Whenever he "disciplined" her, it usually meant something from a small grouping of kisses to a full make out session, depending on their mood. The group then left Spencer and made their way into the elevator. Once down and out, they saw Lewbert. Lewbert screamed about there being more people and ran off, Freddie couldn't help but laugh at the sight, despite how sad everyone was.
Freddie lifted his eyes and glared at Tyrone, he was waiting for the right time to freak him out in any way possible. Maybe at least give the man paralysis in a way believable to it not being his fault. Soon, Spencer could be heard shouting across the room, everyone stopped and looked as he handed Tyrone an inhaler for Carly. After some talk, Tyrone decided to let Carly stay, Freddie took this moment to attack. He lunged onto Tyrone's leg and started tightening his grip.
"Freddie!" Sam thought while her eyes grew rapid.
"Will someone remove this young man from my trousers!" Tyrone exclaimed. Spencer sighed and pulled Freddie up. Tyrone smirked and quickly slipped a sheet of paper to Freddie without anyone noticing. Freddie raised his eyebrow and read it. It said that Freddie won this time, but he would be back, and that he was lucky Emily pretty much blackmailed him into having Carly stay. Though it wasn't blackmail, she merely convinced him through fair trade not to take Carly away.
"So my mom did something," Freddie thought as he shifted his eyes upward. "She'll probably never tell what it is, either." Either way, Tyrone Shay was out of his hair for a while, and Sam was still safe.
I hope you liked that chapter, but don't think this is the last we're going to see of Tyrone. I'd like to thank everyone for their kind reviews, I just get worried because I know that this story, since it follows the series, is going to be long. I'm thinking of ending the follow during the second season, but I'm not sure yet.
