~Jade~

I didn't get any sleep last night. The events of yesterday kept replaying. The fact that Sam saw and heard all of that scared me. What if she told someone?

Another thing that i don't understand why I protect them. They treat me like shit, but im the one making sure no one knows that. Why?

When Sam and I had that encounter on the street i thought she was a stuck up bitch, but after everything she did for me yesterday it's almost as if she truly cares.

Back when i went to Hollywood Arts no one knew about what my dad and Kate did to me, not even Beck, and Beck knows everything about me.

I lay here in my bed staring at my ceiling knowing that when my dad wakes up, he won't remember anything that happened last night. Kate's manipulating him every single day and he lets her.

I wanted to go back. I didn't like it here. I missed my friends. I don't know if I'll make it here, everyone knows each other and everyone is all polite and he girls are all girly. All the girls except Sam. Well i can't really say all the girls though because i only met two. Carly was nice to me. She could be my friend right?

I jumped out bed and walked to my bathroom. When i looked in the mirror i couldn't believe what i saw. My eyeliner and mascara had leaked down to my neck and it dried. I looked as if i had been crying for hours because i was slapped multiple times by my dad and step mom. But no one can know that, so i grabbed my washcloth.

I quickly scrubbed.

~Sam~

Not only did my mom claim that I almost gave her a heat attack but she also grounded me. Gosh i kind of liked it better when she didn't give a crap about me but now she did and her punishments were so unnecessary.

I really couldn't stop thinking about Jade. Was it normal for me being a girl to think of Jade, who is also a girl and want to know this badly? I have no idea but after last night i feel like we grew closer. She sort of reminded me of myself, you know not a care in the world, and not like everyone else who are all so perfect.

I've been so caught up with Jade that I forgot all about how mad I was at Carly. I glanced at my phone. 46 missed calls from her. Weird i don't even remember ignoring them. I know that i shouldn't be thinking this but i really miss her. I miss doing iCarly with her. No! Stop it Sam! Knock it off! She hurt you you and if you forgive her so easily she wont learn and then she'll do it over and over and over and over again. Maybe that's why i wanted to be friends with Jade so badly? To fill the void. But was that bad? Was i only using her? She's tough though, it wouldn't bother her. Would it?

But Jade had a soft side, and something told me that not much people have seen it.

...

My clock said 5:42 am but i knew it was like 3:00 or something. Wow i had been asleep till 1:00, and then i just spoke to myself for an hour. Jeez,I really need new friends. My stomach grumbled and i crave ham.

...

My mom was sitting at the breakfast bar when i got to the kitchen. She was staring at me as if I'd broken her favorite piece of jewelry.

"Mom?" I asked. What had happened? She looked so hurt.

" Sam its 3:00." She said while staring at me intensely.

"Whats so great about 3:00?" I said.

"It's not about what's so great about 3:00." My mom said.

Then what the hell are you talking about!

"It's about what was so great about the time it was two hours ago!" She yelled.

OH god! Then i remembered. I promised my mom I'd be there when she and Evan renewed their vows.

"Ohmigod! Mom, im so sorry. I lost track of time!" I convinced.

She put her hand up.

"Fuck you! You hate me! You hate that I'm happy! You hate that I'm not with your dad!" She yelled.

I haven't seen this side of my mom in a really time time. I was scared.

"You hate Evan! You hate me being happy!" She sobbed.

I didn't know what to say. What could i say though. She was right.

"Why couldn't you have been there?" She asked innocently.

I stared.

"Well, no matter what you do or say i love Evan and were married now." She started.

She looked at me with eyes of fear, but then she looked down...and... rubbed her stomach.

"I'm Pregnant" She said.

AND SLOWLY MY WORLD CAME CRASHING DOWN.

We talked about this. I wouldn't be an ass to Evan as long as she never got pregnant by him. What if he left her? She would go back to her ways,and I'd have to raise my brother or sister.

My tears were pouring now. I ran out of the apartment to come face to face with those same familiar blue eyes.

"We have to stop meeting like this" Jade said to me.

"Yeah, we do" I sniffled.

"Whats wrong?" She asked.

"Family Drama" I replied.

"Want to tell me about it? She asked.

"It's a long story" I said as a rested my head against the wall.

"Mine is too" She said.

I stared at her.

More Staring.

More Staring.

...

...

...

"Well I've got time! Come on!" Jade said as she pulled towards the elevator.

Maybe when T Bo said that something really soon would replace the pain, he was right. Because every time I'm with Jade I forget all my troubles.

A/N- Okay so again sorry for the lateness. Just so you know, this story is centered around Sam and Jade. I know that Sam and Freddie are dating in this story and all that but all my stories are about Sam and Freddie and im tired of all the Sap. Like I said in all my Seddie stories "I'm going on a Seddie HIATUS". :D So im 98% sure that this story will be about Sam and Jade and their growing friendship.

Thanks for the alert adds and reviews. Keep it up!
