Chapter 3: iNew Nickname

She'll pick a fight for no good reason

She knows I'll never leave

I love her half to death

But she's killing me

"Wow, Freddie! That's so cool!" A blond girl who called herself Carrie Schneider (A/N: Love ya, Dan! :D) said. She squeezed Freddie's muscular arm. "I can't believe you're the host of Tech Time With Freddie. I love that show!"

"No you don't!" A girl who looked exactly like Carrie said. "You hate that show! You called Freddie a dork."

"It was geek, Mary." Carrie said. "Just shut up! I'm trying to talk with Freddie."

"You're just jealous!" Mary yelled, pushing Freddie away. "He's been staring at me all night! You only signed up for this cuz I did!"

"Why would I be jealous of you?" Carrie shouted over the loud music. Tonight was the first group date with Freddie…and it wasn't going well. All the girls were fighting for Freddie's attention. "I'm not crazy!"

"Carrie, you can't fool anyone." Mary smiled at Freddie. "Wanna go somewhere more private?"

"Do you two…know each other?" Freddie asked nervously, suddenly enjoying the crowded mansion.

Carrie and Mary nodded. "We're twins." They looked the same…and acted the same. Horrible.

"Well, I'm gonna get a drink." Freddie ran off before they could follow him. He ignored them yelling "Come back! Come back!"

Freddie sat down on a lounge chair by the pool. "Oh." He said, annoyed he wasn't alone.

Sam rolled her eyes. "Oh yourself. Shouldn't you be inside, Mr. Reality?"

"Shouldn't you…"

"Touche." She sighed and kicked off her heels that matched the red dress. "I'm don't wanna beg you to dance with me."

"Um…thanks. I think." Freddie frowned. He never understood this girl! All the others wanted him. Why didn't she?

"You're not welcome."

"Did you say something?"

Sam shook her head. It was too dark to see her blush. "No." she whispered.

"You mumble alot." Sam stared at him like she was gonna murder him. "You mumbled when you met me."

"I've never mumbled!" Sam yelled. She wasn't shy! She just didn't want to talk to him!

Freddie grinned. "Whatever you say…Mumble."

"Don't call me that."

"Why? I like it. I bet no one has ever called you that before."

"God, are you five?" Sam's fringe fell over her eyes again. "I don't want a nickname!" Stupid Fringe. Stupid Family.

"What did you say, Mumble?" Freddie laughed. Sam punched his shoulder. Hard. "Are you just an angry girl?" He rubbed his shoulder.

"No. I just freaking hate it here!"

"Why d-"

"Freddie!" Madison ran up to them. "Come dance with me." She frowned at Sam. "I'm more fun."

"Um…sure." Freddie stood up. He offered his hand to Sam, but she shook her head. And he couldn't make her come. "We'll talk later."

"Oh thank God! I was really worried." Sam rolled her eyes as Madison dragged Freddie away.

"See you later, Mumble."

Confession Camera:

"We have chemistry!" Madison said. "He danced with me the most. I hope the other girls aren't upset when Freddie picks me."

"Mumble! He called me Mumble!" Sam felt like breaking the camera. "Mumble!"

"Good morning, Mumble." Freddie said when he saw me at breakfast.

"Stop calling me that!" I screamed. Everyone stared at me. I stared at the floor as I picked up a box of frosted flakes. God, staring was rude! Shouldn't they be drooling over Freddie?

"Can't do that, Mumble. So how is everyone?"

"Great!" Madison said before anyone could answer. "Me and Sam are becoming great friends." She put her arm around my shoulders and squeezed tight, making me uncomfortable.

"Good. Mumble was all alone last night." Freddie whispered. He couldn't stop grinning at me.

"I wasn't alone!" I told him. "I was just bored and…I have friends!"

"If you say so, Mumble." I watched Freddie pour milk into his cereal bowl.

"Don't call me that!" I stomped my foot angrily.

Freddie just laughed. "Want me to call you Thumper?"

"Want your breakfast on your head?" I hissed.

"Sorry, what did you say, Mumble?"
