Chapter 5

Disclaimer: I don't own iCarly.

Narrator's P.O.V.

Sam walked out of school before Freddie could go up to her and talk to her, which was what Freddie was actually going to do.

"Sam! Sam?" Freddie was rummaging through the crowds of people. He pushed a girl out of his way, who glared at him. "Sorry!" He apologized. He ran out of school.

Sam was walking back to her house, past the restaurant she used to always go to, and where Freddie would always take her after school. BF Wangs. Good stuff. She smiled at the thought, and continued walking down the sidewalk, her mind wandering around with thoughts. And, suddenly, she was pushed to the ground. "Hey! Who the hell did that?" She shouted, turning around on the ground.

A man dressed in all black was staring straight at her. His green eyes filled with evil thoughts, his hair sticking out. His lips, curved at one side. Just staring at her. He smiled evilly, and reached down, grabbed her bag, and her wallet, taking out all her money. He threw her bag back at her, and sprinted away.

"Hey! Hey you! Don't run away! YOU DON'T KNOW WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH! I will hunt you down!" Sam shouted at the man who just turned the corner. She sighed, picking up her bag. I hate my life.

She walked down the sidewalk, thinking of ways to get back at the dude who just mugged her. Murdering is just going to get me more in trouble, and get fined… so that's a no. I have no money. She sighed. She took out her phone and began typing something up in her notes. This, right now, I can't tell you what she is writing because, it's top secret. Let's just say that she was writing about how horrible her life is. When she finished, she stuck her phone back into her pocket, and continued walking back to her place.

She mindlessly crossed the street, unaware of the speeding car that was heading towards her. The car came colliding with her small figure, and ran the red light. Hit and run, as you would call it.

Sam felt a sharp pain shoot through her, and she collapsed on the ground, holding onto her side where it hurt the most. She was pretty sure that she could feel something sharp poking at her fingers, and she assumed that her ribs were poking out, but she didn't bother looking at it. It'll hurt more. Her head came crashing down to the cement, and everyone gathered around her.

"SAM!" Freddie had yelled when the car had hit her. He saw her collapse on the ground, so he had run as fast as he could, through the people that were gathered around her. He knelt beside her. "Did anyone call 911 yet? ANYONE!" He shouted at the random people around her. Many nodded, and continued looking at the poor girl moaning in pain. "Sam. Are you okay?" Freddie held one of her hands, and placed it in his lap.

"Freddie…" was all she could muster while she was drowning in pain. She tried saying something again, but her mind grew blank, and she became unconscious.

Freddie watched as the paramedics came, and lifted Sam off the ground and put her on the gurney, and rolling her into the ambulance. "Please, let me come. I'm her best friend." Freddie pleaded with the paramedics dude when he refused to take him. He finally gave up, knowing the kid wouldn't stop asking. They drove as fast as they can to the hospital, and Freddie was worried all throughout the whole ride. She's gonna be okay. She's gonna be okay. She's gonna live. She's strong, she's gonna survive. Freddie held her hand the whole ride, praying that she'll be okay.

They arrived at the hospital, and Sam was immediately rushed to the Emergency Room. "Out of the way! Out of the way!" Doctors demanded.

Freddie was running along with the hospital bed, still having his hand in her hand. A tear escaped his eye, and he didn't even bother wiping it away. "Excuse me, boy, but you have to leave." The doctor told Freddie when they were in the emergency room.

"No! No! I can't leave her alone!" Freddie shouted at the doctor. The nurses came in and struggled to pull him out of the emergency room.

"She's losing blood! She's losing blood really fast! Get the blood transfusion!" Freddie heard the doctor tell the others.

"Sir, sir, you need to calm down. It's going to be all right." One of the nurses reassured him.

"And how do you know that? Huh?" Freddie's eyebrows furrowed together, and he put his face in his hands, trying to keep calm.

Sam was laying down the hospital bed, completely out of it. Doctors were performing several procedures on her. They carefully placed her ribs back in place, and sewing the skin right back up. They cleaned her wounds, and put bandages on necessary areas. She was given a blood transfusion because she had lost around 2 liters of blood and had gone into shock.

Freddie was completely worried, so he stayed in the hospital with Sam until she got better and woke up from her coma. Freddie heard a mumble next to him, so he looked up and saw Sam slowly opening her eyes, and for the first time in 5 days, Freddie saw those crystal blue eyes again. "Good morning beautiful." Freddie said.

Sam slowly looked to her side and her brows knitted together. "Freddie… what… happened? Why am I here?... Why are you here? All I remember was…" Sam's eyes grew wide when she felt pain on her left side. "Ow, the hell?"

"Sam, don't move. You're still hurt." Freddie told her, grabbing her hand.

Sam yanked her hand away. If Carly saw that they're holding hands, she's gonna murder Sam, even if Sam's not afraid, she's afraid of looking weak. "I'm fine, Frednub. I can take care of myself." Sam growled.

"Look, Sam, I know why you're upset." Freddie sighed, reaching for her soft hand again, and this time, clutching it tight so she wouldn't yank it away.

Sam looked away and huffed, "Whatever."

"No, not whatever, Sam. Look at me. We need to talk about this, now that we're alone, and there's nothing to distract us." Freddie told Sam, urging her to look back into his brown eyes. When she didn't cooperate with him, he took his other hand and put it under her chin, and gently rotated her head so she would look at him. But instead of looking at his eyes, she was looking at her hand that was touching Freddie's. "Sam, please, just look at me."

Sam gave in, and let her eyes travel up to meet his eyes. "Sam, I'm sorry, alright? I'm sorry I didn't know anything." Sam didn't respond, she just started looking around everywhere but him. "I didn't know what happened, so I just assumed that I could just go hang out with Carly and bring her to you so we could all hang out. I didn't know the true story behind all of this. Please forgive me. I need your forgiveness, and without it, I feel like shit."

"But you are…" She joked, with her straight face on.

He chuckled, and smiled. "I guess I am. So, am I forgiven?"

"Depends. How much are you longing for my forgiveness?"

"Everything. I'd die if you didn't forgive me. Please Sam, forgive me, I want to be your friend again."

Sam sighed, seeing that he was honest, and wasn't just lying so he could tell his popular group to spread rumors about her. He was honest. "Forgiven. Now stop acting like a girl." She smirked.

Freddie just smiled back, happy they were on good terms again. "So um, you have 4 more days until you can get out of here."

"Ugh, I wanna get out of here now." She complained, hanging her head back, but yelped when it hurt when she did that.

"Ms. Puckett, you are awake." Dr. Jones, the female doctor said when she came in. "How are you feeling, dear?" She sat on a chair next to the bed.

"Everything hurts like hell." Sam admitted.

"Okay, well, I'll have to give you the prescription for the medicine you will be taking daily every day and night… or should I give this to you?" She handed a piece of paper to Freddie, which he took.

"Thanks, doc." Freddie smiled.

"You are one nice friend." Dr. Jones commented, and she turned to Sam. "Now Sam, are you hungry? Do you want anything to eat?"

"Actually, I am pretty hungry."

"Okay, we'll get you some food in a second. Anything else you need?"

"Make the pain stop."

Dr. Jones chuckled."Alright, let me give you some medication for the meantime."

Sam smiled. "Thank you." Mrs. Jones left, and it was her and Freddie again.

"Sooo… I have a pen." Freddie told Sam.

"…And?" Sam asked, curious as of why he was bringing it up.

"Can I… sign your whole cast?" Freddie asked, pointing to her right arm.

Sam shrugged. "Go for it. It's not like anyone in school is gonna wanna come near me and sign it anyway. I'm practically invisible."

"No you're not. You weren't invisible then, why start becoming invisible now?" Freddie interrogated her, while signing her cast.

"That's because I had Carly that caught peoples' attention. And, since she left, I'm left alone." Sam sighed.

"Oh… Hey, by the way, the person that did the hit and run on you got caught. DUI." Freddie said, keeping himself occupied by signing her cast.

"That's good to hear. I hope that the dude that mugged me got caught too."

Freddie's head snapped up. "You gotmugged too? Jeez, Sam, I'm sorry about that shitty day."

"Nah, don't worry about it."

A nurse came in with a tray of food, and some medication. Sam thanked her, and began devouring her food. She took her medication, and almost instantly the pain went away. Freddie was soon done signing her cast, and she read it:

Dear Sam… Samantha.
I don't know, your full name sounds very feminine. Okay, scratch that. You'll probably break my arm, then you'll have to sign my whole cast. I don't know what to say…
Okay, first, I'm really sorry, I had no clue what happened. I swear, I didn't know. And now you just forgave me, so thanks. I wanted my friendship with you to be restored, and I did just that right now.
Well that was stupid. I wrote this letter with big writing and now I don't have any more room to write. Well, I guess I'll have to stop here.
Thanks for your forgiveness, Sam. It really means a lot.
Love,
Freddie Benson.

"Love Freddie Benson." Sam reread. "Love? Are you sure? Love is a strong word. "

"Yeah, a strong word I can handle." Freddie smiled.

And from that day on, Freddie Benson and Sam Puckett had restored their friendship again.
