Chapter 49 (Role Play: Honeymoon Phase)
Three days passed by, so far things were running smoothly. Anytime Jonah called, it was actually Freddie calling Sam. The first night, he called right when Sam was talking to Carly and asked her to go watch a movie with him. Currently, Freddie was sitting in his French class while holding his cell phone out. Jonah had his eyebrow raised and watched as Freddie texted Sam.
"You got to be kidding, well, I guess they do have that freedom for now," Jonah thought while leaning back and giving a deep sigh. He would have been texting Valerie, but she told him not to do that. Sam was normally like Valerie in the sense that she'd rather study than text, but in this case, it was her first opportunity to actually manage to do stuff with Freddie openly while she pretended to date Jonah. "Hey Freddie, you should complain to Carly about the whole texting thing!" Freddie looked over and laughed slightly, that wasn't a bad idea.
"Yeah, I'll keep that in mind," Freddie stated. "Sam just sent me a text saying that she needs to get started on her work, and I better as well." He closed his phone and put it in his pocket. "She and Valerie are the masterminds behind this whole role play, aren't they?" Jonah laughed and gave a quick nod. Sam and Valerie were the ones scripting everything, the boys wouldn't have thought of half the things if it wasn't for them. "Well, what can we do without our girls?"
"Not much, man. Not much." Freddie chuckled and looked at the paper on his desk. He continued to work on homework until the bell rang. From there, he grabbed his backpack and took his quiz from the desk. "Hey dude, I'll catch you later. By the way, what do you think I should send in that one text that the girls want me to send…making her seem obsessed with her boyfriend?" Jonah blinked and slowly shook his head, Freddie shrugged and crossed his arms in thought.
"How about just something about how cute her head is." Jonah shrugged and Freddie left the room to find Carly at her locker.
"Hey Freddie, how did French class go?" Carly asked while smiling at him.
"Terrible!" Freddie exclaimed while holding his test paper up. "I got a B plus on a test!" Carly gasped and smiled.
"That's not part of the Freddie Benson master plan!" Freddie rolled his eyes and frowned. While he did want to make an A, he didn't really worry too much about the grade. Carly was an oddball, she didn't really know what he planned.
"Well I couldn't concentrate because Jonah was sitting right next to me text messaging Sam the whole time! Did you know they've spent like every second together for the past three days?" So he was boasting, he and Sam hadn't spent every second together, but it was a good exaggeration to use.
"I know, they're like a total couple now!"
"It's disgusting!" Carly rolled her eyes and smiled as Sam stepped next to them. Her phone beeped and Sam checked it.
"Hey, I've got a text from Jonah," Sam said as she read the words. "The back of your head is totally cute." That had to be the oddest phrase she had ever heard. "I'm sure he didn't think of that one on his own…" Sam smiled and looked up, not seeing Jonah stepping behind her. "Aw, he thinks the back of my head is cute!" Jonah took a deep breath and spoke, feeling weird about doing this with his best friend's girl. Not only that, his best friend was right there.
"I'm not just thinking about it, I'm looking at it," Jonah said in a quick voice. Sam turned around and gave him a quick hug.
"Aw, I missed you!" Remembering the three second rule, Jonah and Sam quickly ended the hug. Sam looked over at Carly and Freddie, then looked over at Jonah. "Hey, want to go get some lunch?" They would leave together, then split.
"Sure, as long as you don't sniff the fruit salad!" Sam laughed and Carly smiled awkwardly. Freddie suppressed a chuckle and crossed his arms. He knew what they were talking about, he was the one that told Jonah about it. He and Sam had gone to the smoothie shop and some dude tried to sniff the fruit salad. When he did, someone hit the guy and his face fell into the salad. It caused a chain reaction of chaos in the shop.
"What about sniffing the fruit salad?" Carly asked while raising her eyebrow.
"Last night, we saw this one dude," Sam started while laughing. Jonah chuckled and glanced to the side. "You had to be there."
"Come on, let's go," Jonah said. He wanted to see Valerie as soon as possible, and no doubt Sam wanted to get her moment alone with Freddie. Sam nodded and the two left Carly and Freddie. Freddie stepped forward and mimicked the two.
"You had to be there!" Freddie said while scoffing slightly.
"Oh come on, be happy for Sam," Carly said as she stepped forward. "She hasn't had a boyfriend since fifth grade when Frankie Murkin rudely dumped her." Freddie raised his eyebrow and looked to Carly. He remembered that memory well.
"She broke his leg."
"Yeah, and then he rudely dumped her!" Freddie rolled his eyes and shook his head, it really didn't matter all that much. He was her boyfriend, and that was why Sam didn't have a boyfriend in so long, she already did have one.
"Yeah, well she has one now." Carly nodded in agreement and started walking off. "I'm going to go this way, so see you at rehearsal tonight."
"Later, Freddie." Freddie gave a salute and quickly rushed off, he was going to meet Sam in the school gymnasium and help her to draw a good picture of her with Jonah.
-NEW SCENE-
Later at rehearsal, Sam and Freddie decided on annoying Carly into not liking Jonah all that much. It was a plan they made with Jonah and Valerie. They had already discussed some ideas that iCarly was getting and the wedgie bounce seemed nice. Jonah wanted to ride on the wedgie bounce, but probably wouldn't get to do it.
He did suggest it to Sam and Freddie, so they started thinking of how and why Jonah could get onto the wedgie bounce. They still didn't have a big idea, though.
"Okay, so let's go over ideas for iCarly," Freddie said while walking toward Carly and Sam. Sam was in a beanbag chair and sending text messages to Freddie's cell phone. He luckily had it turned off, otherwise it would be beeping every time he received a text. He did feel a vibration in his pocket whenever a text came, and that was constant. "Sam, where is the list of iCarly ideas?" A vibration was felt and Freddie exhaled slowly and closed his eyes. "Sam!"
"Oh, here," Sam replied as she reached back and pulled out a paper. It was the drawing that she and Freddie drew. She handed Freddie the paper and he took one look at it, frowning as he turned it around.
"This is a drawing of you and Jonah in a big heart surrounded by smaller hearts." Carly sighed and Sam looked up at Freddie.
"Okay, give me that." She took the paper and handed him the correct sheet that held the iCarly ideas. Freddie placed it on the clipboard and Carly stood in front of him.
"We were talking about the fan that blows stuff, or the wedgie bounce."
"I don't know, the wedgie bounce scares me," Carly said while shuddering. She wasn't overly fond of the idea of being bounced up and down by the underwear. "Who thought of that idea, anyway?"
"Jonah, he wanted a thrill." Carly turned toward Sam and smiled.
"Sam, what do you think?" The constant vibrations in Freddie's pocket continued, he knew he should have turned it completely off. "Sam!" She still didn't respond to Carly, but then, she didn't really want to respond to her that much. Truth be told, the vibrations in his pocket were getting a little annoying. Carly turned toward Freddie and gave him a look of annoyance. "Okay, this is getting annoying."
"Yeah, how are we going to rehearse if she won't quit texting Jonah!" Sam smirked, knowing full well that she was getting under Freddie's skin. It was fun to tease him every now and then.
"Like this!" Carly knelt next to Sam and smiled. "Hello, I'm Carly, and I'm Sam…this is a new bit that we like to call…" Carly narrowed her eyes and looked at Sam. "Obsessively texting your boyfriend!" Sam stopped texting for a minute and looked at Carly with a smile.
"Oh hey, Carly! Your hair looks pretty."
"You're kidding…" Carly placed one hand over her eyes and shook her head with annoyance. Freddie and Sam merely looked at each other and smiled. Carly stood up and looked over at Freddie. "There's no way rehearsals are getting done today…let's go downstairs and talk to Spencer."
"Fine…" Carly left the room first and Freddie snickered. "Hey Sam, I think it'll be okay to let go of the rehearsals just this once, don't you?" Sam looked up and raised her eyebrow, wondering what Freddie meant. "How about you and I go over to the smoothie shop and grab a smoothie later?"
"Yeah that sounds fun," Sam said while smiling at her lover.
"Okay, give it a few minutes and make it look like Jonah. I'll see you in a bit." Freddie winked at her and stepped out of the room, he quickly joined Carly and walked down the stairs to see Spencer working on his clay project. "Hey, is that a hamster wearing a space helmet…" Freddie started to reach for the hamster but Spencer quickly screamed at him.
"Don't touch it!" Spencer exclaimed. After some talking and explaining of the clay project, Sam started hurrying down the stairs.
"Hey, where are you going?" Carly asked while looking at her in distress.
"Jonah's at the smoothie shop and wants me to meet him there," Sam replied while opening the door and rushing out.
"But!" Carly sighed and turned around to look at Spencer. "Sam has a new boyfriend and he's all she can think about!"
"Ah, the honeymoon phase," Spencer said while walking to the counter. Freddie had to hear this, he raised his eyebrow and chuckled while taking a step forward with Carly.
"What are you talking about?"
"Well when someone's in a new relationship, it's like they're blind to everything else but that other person. Like when I started dating that girl, Jennifer, I had a bad case of poison ivy for two whole weeks and I didn't even know."
"Well, how did you find out?" Freddie asked while crossing his arms.
"It spread…to places…"
"Where?" Spencer waved his finger in the air and Freddie stepped closer, letting him whisper the answer in his ear. Freddie groaned and looked to the side. "Ouch…" He stepped to the side and looked toward the door, it was Sam time. "Well guys, on that note, I need to go pick up a few things for Mom."
"So you have to leave too?" Carly asked as she narrowed her eyes. "Fine, I guess we'll deal with you later."
"Yep, so I'll catch you on the flip side." He smoothly walked out of the apartment and closed the door, snickering as he walked down the hall. "Time to go meet Sam at the smoothie shop!"
-NEW SCENE-
The next day, Freddie was meeting with Sam, Jonah, and Valerie just moments before rehearsal. "So, you think you have to blow off rehearsals at least once?" Freddie asked while raising his eyebrows. Sam gave a curt nod and Jonah leaned against the wall. "Okay, well then…we should put something on your voicemail and state the reason why you're missing the rehearsals." Sam pulled out her cell phone and looked at it.
"Sure, I can do that," Sam said with a shrug. She moved her finger to the voicemail button and looked over to Jonah. "Jonah, come over here…think like Freddie, or just think of Valerie." Jonah nodded and stepped over to the phone. Sam pressed the button and started the recording. "Hey, you've reached Sam." Sam looked over at Freddie and smiled. "I'm with the most awesome guy ever!" Jonah looked over at Valerie and smiled softly.
"And I'm with the cutest girl ever," Jonah added in a quick voice. Valerie quickly mouthed the word water park, hoping they'd catch on. Sam nodded and smiled as she spoke into the phone.
"We're going to be at the water park all afternoon!"
"So don't bug us!"
"And don't sniff the fruit salad." Freddie stifled a laugh as Sam hung up the phone and smiled at him. "Okay, so what do you want me to do instead of rehearsals?" Freddie tapped his chin and smirked when he thought of an idea.
"Wait for me at the main park down the street."
"Okay…"
"I'll show up and surprise you."
"Oh by the way, ask Carly to find a way to make me jealous because of the whole dating Jonah thing." Freddie narrowed his eyes and raised his eyebrow while crossing his arms.
"I am not asking her out." Sam winced and quickly shook her head, that's not quite what she meant.
"She won't accept because you have to be pushy. She's my friend, I'm sure if you say 'date to get back at her' then she's definitely not going to go for it."
"It's going to make me sick, but okay. Now you know I have to do something perfect with you." Sam smiled at him and lightly tapped his cheek.
"Yeah, but you know you're just role playing right now. I can't wait to see what you have in mind for me."
-NEW SCENE-
Sam had a blanket on the grass in the park while waiting for Freddie to show up. It was a perfect view of the lake, so that's why she chose the spot. Freddie would meet her after the iCarly rehearsals, so that gave her some time to relax. She sighed and lay back on the blanket, closing her eyes and exhaling slowly. After lying there for a few minutes, she felt something lying next to her, she knew it was Freddie. She could feel him lightly placing a rose to her lips and slowly start moving it down her body.
"Freddie." She laughed and opened her eyes to greet Freddie. "Hey, how was rehearsals?"
"Sickening," Freddie said as he kissed her temples. "I had to get out of there as fast as I could. However, I think we should probably not blow off any more rehearsals."
"Yeah, I agree. I really don't like doing that to Carly, I mean she cares so much about the rehearsals."
"Yeah, well she told me just recently that she would rather you not date someone so that you could stop blowing off the rehearsals."
"Well, I've been dating you and I haven't blown any off."
"True." Sam wrapped her arms around Freddie's neck as he positioned himself above her. "I just couldn't wait to come and see you, and now I feel like all is right with the world."
"I'm glad to have that effect on you." Sam lifted her head and kissed Freddie's lips. She then leaned back down and sighed with contentment.
"Sam, how are we going to end the role play?"
"Jonah should role play as a cheater." Freddie raised his eyebrow and Sam closed her eyes in thought. "As I've been role playing as a girl who is obsessed with my boyfriend, the only way for my type of person to break up with the guy is for him to try and cheat on me. We've been setting it up so that Carly knows him well…so maybe he should go after her."
"Yeah, and we know already that she doesn't like him, so nothing will happen. Plus, if he does that, then that means you can get mad at him and put him on the wedgie bounce like he wants to do."
"Yeah, so he'll get to have some fun with that. Plus, he doesn't like Carly, so he gets to freak her out! We'll just have to talk to Jonah and Valerie about this plan."
"True…and now, for you." Freddie smirked and kissed Sam's lips. She moved her hands up behind his back and he did the same with her. They broke lips and Freddie lifted his hand and brushed Sam's hair. "I just got an idea."
"What?" Freddie looked over at a hill and Sam glanced over to see what he was looking at. "Oh no, you wouldn't!" Freddie grabbed the blanket and grinned. "Freddie!" She laughed as he pulled it over them and started rolling up in the blanket. "Don't do it…" He then kissed her lips and started rolling toward the hill, once on it, they started rolling down the hill. Sam laughed and kept herself close to Freddie, he knew she was having fun. They reached the bottom of the hill and rolled out of the blanket, letting it fall on top of them. "You are crazy."
"I have a wonderful girlfriend who makes me crazy." Sam giggled and blushed as Freddie gently caressed her face. "I can't begin to tell you just how much I love you. The reasons are too great, I have more reasons to love you than there are stars in the sky at night."
"There are normally millions…" Sam gave one soft chuckle and Freddie softly kissed her forehead.
"You outshine them all." Sam's blush deepened and she continued to gaze up into his eyes.
"You really know how to make a girl feel good."
"I try my best." Sam smiled and kissed Freddie once more. He breathed in and then exhaled softly. "We should probably get out of this position, because it is far too tempting to continue on. If I continue, then I am afraid I will not be able to stop."
"Yeah…" Freddie rolled off and lay beside Sam, taking her hand in his while gazing up at the clouds. He squeezed her hand and she smiled. "This is nice…I love looking at the clouds."
"Same here, they're really beautiful and calming to look at." Sam nodded in agreement and continued to gaze upwards with Freddie.
