A/N: Seems like I'm getting a little ahead of myself but time for the next chapter! Enjoy!

Supportive Friends

I took a while to get out of bed… Damn… I was having a nice dream that I was eating ham on top of a royal throne. Maybe I'm just out of line on that one. Better get my butt up so Tori and I can have lunch.

It was only 10:30 when I awoke from my slumber but it seemed like an eternity. I still have a few days to prepare everything for school so that didn't bother me. I did end up getting all the things I want. I do have orientation to go to before I start my first actual day in class. It's weird having orientation first then class starts like a few days later. After I finally got ready I went out to the living to see Tori had plopped onto my couch and was waiting for me to come out.

"Alright Vega," I said, "When did you get here and why didn't you wake me?"

"About 10 minutes," she said, "I did but you said Mamma was going to kick my butt."

"Did I?"

"You said that you were going to use a tube sock with butter in it. So I decided to let you sleep."

I wanted to be mad but at the same time I guess she had a point. I don't usually like to be awoken up by other people unless it's from Carly. She usually just puts ham or bacon in front of me and I will just jolt up.

"Where to sista," I said trying to change the subject.

"Fried Chicken," she said knowing one of my weaknesses.

Without me saying a word, we both headed out to get fried chicken. Took a little bit to find parking as it usually does with me; we were finally able to order and just sit down and eat. After a bit of me destroying my fried chicken, Tori decided to look at me.

"So about yesterday," she said, "You okay?"

Damn it…I didn't expect to have to think about that so quickly. I just realize that was the whole reason why we came out for food. I better come up with something and quick.

I bite on another piece first before putting it down and saying, "I just have some issues right now that are for me to even talk about."

"Is it about Freddie?"

Chick went right to the point. How in the world could she see…

I wasn't going to fight it, "How did you know?"

"I had a hunch. That and I kind of contacted an old friend of yours."

"Carly?"

"Yeah… she does know you a little more than I do. I figure she would be the best person to ask in this situation."

Oh Shay… well I guess I have to thank her somehow later.

"Yeah… things really didn't end well with me and the nub."

"All I can say is hope things work out between you two."

"Maybe somewhere down the line."

We both finished our food and left. Did some more sightseeing and headed back to the apartment. I walk back into my and just plopped onto my bed again. I just never thought that I would be acting like this.

Someone knocks on my door. I decide to get up and slowly walk to the door. I open the door and was greeted by a weird salesman.

"Hi, I'm here to offer a deal of a lifetime…"

I stopped him; all I said was, "Go Suck a Truck." I slammed the door in his face two seconds later.

I went back to my room and decided to look at my Pearbook. I ended up watching some of the old iCarly. I had some good laughs but at the same time I had some bad memories. All of which were mostly me teasing him.

My pearbook said "Accept video chat from Carly."

I clicked yes, "Hey Shay," after wiping my tears.

"Hey Sam," she said as she is sitting at her desk, "feeling a little better."

"How did you? Tori told you huh?"

"How else would she know your number?"

"Good point. Thanks Shay. I guess I just needed someone to listen to me ramble for a while."

"That's good. I'm surprise you and I didn't get a chance to talk prior to you leaving."

"I know… it's just hard when it's also the person you care about too, Carly."

"I'm not worried about that. I've known that you still have feelings for him."

"But – I thought…"

"Why else would I still push him back?"

"You did it for me."

"Of course… I'm not gonna let my best friend not be happy."

"Thanks Shay…" Huge sigh of relief, at least she knows that I still am after him¸ "Have you talked to him since I left."

"Once, but that was because he wanted to talk to me about the letter."

"Oh…, what did he say to that?"

"Besides trying to play it off, he said he wished he had the chance to tell me in person."

"Well he has my number… he has to make the first move now."

"He does and I told him that. On a side note Sam, Spencer and I want your address so we can send you some shiz."

"Momma loves shiz… I'll text you my address once we finish."

"No worries… I'm assuming you are getting acclimated to the surroundings."

"Took a day and a half… but I think Momma is gonna be fine."

"That's good to hear…well I better not keep you. Night Sam; please try not to be hard on yourself about it."

"Night Cupcake; Momma makes no promises but I'll do what I can."

After the chat, I quickly texted my address and just went back to my bed. Carly, why do you have to be awesome? We'll at least there is some hope, but I don't want it to be some false hope where I am getting my hopes up to soon. I checked my email one last time and saw that there was a syllabus for me to look over. I guess I better be prepared on day 1. Looks like I'm going to class right after my orientation.

I printed the chiz out and had another quick glanced at it before calling it a night.

Freddie you nub, why did you have to be such a chicken and just not talk to me in person? I know that you probably just ask Carly to make up a lie so you can send me something. I better just not think about it. Next time I see you, atomic wedgie before I do anything.

*Freddie's apartment*

*Shudders* "Why do I have a feeling I'm going to get a wedgie somewhere down the line," the boy said as he climbs back to his bed.

A/N: Yes I had to add that last part in there… I hope you enjoy two chapters essentially in one day. Read and Review! No flames!
