~ * Carly * ~

I sit in the bathtub and sigh deeply. It's Sunday and Sam and Freddie are doing something together. Brad's gonna come over in an hour and then I have to make a move on him. I'm actually so nervous. I've never felt this way about flirting with someone before. It's always been so easy for me, but with Brad it's just different. I'm really scared he doesn't like me back. Oh gosh that'd just be horrible.

I rinse the shampoo out of my hair and shave my legs, then relax in the tub for a few more minutes before stepping out. I dry myself quickly and wrap my towel around me before walking out of the bathroom. I walk to my room. Oh god what am I gonna wear? Brad needs to like me. Okay something girly but still casual… I stand in front of my closet and grab some clothes out before changing my mind and throwing them on the floor behind me.

After about 10 minutes my whole room is filled with clothes and I finally find a dress I like. I put the dress on quickly and sit in front of the big computer screen that is also a mirror Spencer made for me. I press the button in front of it and blow dry my hair before curling it loosely.

I put some body butter on my legs and arms and then start doing my makeup. I decided to put on a little bit more as usual, but not too much, cause it still has to look natural. I put on some lip-gloss and pucker my lips. I look in the mirror and smile. Okay, almost ready.

I grab my bright pink nail polish and paint my nails. I look at them in content when I finish and smile. Okay all done.

I look in the mirror one last time and do a few poses. I quickly take a picture and send it to Sam with the text 'Brad will be here any minute. Approval?' She probably won't reply though since she's all focused on Freddie and doesn't check her phone.

Surprisingly I get a text back from Sam after about 7 minutes. 'Looking good Carls! You're gorgeous. Brad will immediately fall in love with you! ;) good luck!' I chuckle and then smile.

Brad should really be here any minute now, gosh I feel so nervous!

I hear the doorbell. Oh my god that's him! Spencer went on a date with some girl he met at an art gallery so it'll really be Brad and me, just the two of us. I run downstairs and take a deep breath. I fix my hair and then open the door. I smile at Brad. ''Hey, come in!''

He smiles back at me and walks in. ''Spencer not home?''

I shake my head. ''No he's on a date.''

''Again?'' Brad chuckles.

I chuckle back and nod. ''Yup.''

Brad looks at me. ''Wow you're all dolled up, looking great Carls.'' He smiles.

Oh my god he said I look great! Eep!

I smile at him. ''Oh, yeah…just y'know playing around with the makeup and hair products. You know girls.'' I chuckle at him.

He chuckles back at me. ''Well you look really great.'' He smiles.

That absolutely makes me melt inside and I smile widely at him, blushing slightly. ''Thank you.''

''You're welcome.'' He smiles back.

''So what do you wanna do? You wanna go do some iCarly stuff, go to the Groovie Smoothie?'' I smile.

''Ehm I actually thought maybe we could go see a movie.'' Brad smiles back at me.

''Oh yeah sure!'' I say.

Oh god I'm gonna watch a movie, just alone with Brad, eep!

''Okay let's go.'' He says and he grabs my jacket, putting it on me.

I smile at him. ''Thanks!''

He opens the door for me and leads me out. Oh my gosh he's actually treating me like his girlfriend! Okay think straight Carls, think about your plan.

We walk to the cinema and arrive there after a few minutes. Brad buys us some popcorn and we get to our seats. We sit down. I look at Brad. ''So what movie are we watching? It isn't something with action and horror right? I'm not Sam!'' I chuckle.

He chuckles back. ''I know you're not, just wait.'' He winks at me.

Okay why won't he tell me what movie we're seeing…weird… Oh who cares, I'm alone with Brad, that's all that matters.

''So do you enjoy being back here?'' I ask brad while the trailers start playing.

''Brad nods.'' I love it. I missed you guys a lot. He smiles.

I smile back at him. ''We missed you too!''

I look at the screen when the movie starts and then see the title. My eyes widen. Safe heaven!? That's supposed to be like the most romantic movie ever! And so not Brad…why would he take me to this?

I look at him and bite my lip. ''Ehm Brad, are we in the right movie? This just…doesn't really seem like a movie for you…''

Brad nods. ''You're right, it isn't. But I thought you'd like it…'' He smiles.

Awww Brad's taking me to a movie that's totally nothing like him just because he thinks I like it, that's so sweet!

I smile back at him. ''Aww, that's so sweet!''

He smiles at me and we watch the movie. I twirl a string of my hair around my finger while watching the movie, old trick I know. Okay I can't do this…I need to tell Brad how I feel. He can't just walk out on me or burst out laughing since we're in a movie, so it can't be that bad. Okay, here we go…

After a really romantic scene in the movie I turn to Brad and take a deep breath it is like he turned to me at the same moment and did the exact same thing.

''I need to tell you something…'' Brad and I both say at the same moment.

I smile at him. ''You go first.''

''No you go first.'' He smiles back.

''No you go first.''

''Okay I'll go first!'' Brad chuckles and then he looks at me seriously.

''I…I took you here because…I…I like you…'' Brad looks down shyly.

I look at him in shock and smile widely. ''You do?''

''Yeah…I think you're so amazing Carly…I have a huge crush on you and I really really like you…I understand if you don't feel the same way though…'' He looks down again.

Oh my goodness! Brad likes me! He really likes me! Eeeeeep!

I shake my head and smile widely at him. ''I…I just wanted to tell you the same thing. I really like you…a lot.'' I blush.

He smiles widely at me. ''Really?''

I smile back at him and nod, still blushing a little. ''Yeah.''

Brad bites his lip and he leans in, a moment later our lips are pressed against each other and we kiss. Oh. My. God! This is the best day ever! Brad is so amazing and likes me! He really likes me! And he's kissing me!

I pull back after a while and smile widely at Brad, I look around and realize the movie has ended and everyone has left the room already. I chuckle at Brad and he chuckles back at me. We stand up and walk out of the room. Brad looks at me and he hesitantly grabs my hand. I smile widely at him and we start walking back to the Bushwell, holding hands.

We walk back into my apartment and sit down on the couch together. Brad looks at me shyly. Awww that's so cute!

I smile at him. ''You don't have to be so shy. I have to admit, I tried to flirt with you for a few days already, but I was just too scared you wouldn't like me.''

He smiles at me. ''Well I do, I really really like you Carly.''

I bite my lip and smile widely. ''I really really like you too.''

I kiss Brad softly and he kisses me back. We pull back after a while.

''So Sam encouraged me to make a move on you.'' I say.

''So Freddie encouraged me to make a move on you.'' Brad says at the exact same time.

We chuckle.

''Well there's the coupling couple.'' I say, chuckling.

''Uh huh!'' Brad says and he chuckles too.

I can't believe Sam and Freddie worked together to couple me and Brad up. I smirk to myself. I love those two.

''So…'' Brad says and he looks into my eyes. He bites his lip. ''Will you be my girlfriend Carly?...''

I smile widely at him and nod. ''yes! Yes yes yes!''

He smiles back widely at me and we kiss again.

~ * Sam * ~

I sit at the dinner table with Freddie and his mom. We just finished dinner. Freddie and I had an amazing day together, first we went to the park again and went for a walk and then we just watched movies on the couch and cuddled. Gosh I really love that boy more than anything, he's so perfect!

I wonder how everything went with Carly and Brad. When Freddie came back from the gym yesterday he was fully convinced that Brad was gonna make a move on Carly, and I made sure that Carly did the same with Brad so it should be all good. Those two are so cute, trying to hide their feelings for each other. Makes me think of two other people. I smirk widely to myself.

Hiding our feelings for each other was absolutely no option for Freddie and me anymore though, I never thought we would be but we are one of those lovey-dovey couples that just can't take their eyes and lips from each other and annoy the hell out of people. I smirk widely to myself again. I wouldn't wanna have it any other way. We love each other and the whole world is allowed to know that.

I look over at Freddie. ''Hey babe you wanna go and check how Carly and Brad are doing?'' I smirk.

''Ehm I don't know about that…maybe they're in the middle of the flirting actions.'' He winks at me.

''Orrrr they're in the middle of a make out session. And I'm pretty sure it's that. Wanna bet?''

He smirks at me. ''Oh it's on Puckett.''

''What do we bet for? 20 dollar?'' I smirk.

''Fine by me babe!'' He smirks back and we shake hands.

Although Freddie and I are together now, we still always have to compete against each other. It's just our thing, and I love it.

Freddie and me stand up from the table and walk out of the door. I pick the lock on Carly's door and Freddie rolls his eyes.

We both peek inside and I smirk widely when I see Carly and Brad kissing on the couch. I close the door again and nudge Freddie in the chest playfully. ''You owe me 20 dollars nub!'' I smirk widely.

Freddie sighs and rolls his eyes. ''yeah yeah okay…''

''Don't forget, momma always wins!'' I smirk and I do a little victory dance.

Freddie shakes his head and chuckles at me, walking back inside. I chuckle back at him and walk back inside after him, closing the door behind us.

I walk over to him and grab him by his collar , looking in his eyes and smirking. He looks at me slightly scared and I smirk wider. ''Now give momma some sugar!''

Freddie rolls his eyes and presses his lips against mine, kissing me forcefully. I let go of his collar and wrap my arms around his neck, smirking against his lips.
