Day 14 is hereeee! Thanks to ohsolizgillies from twitter for this idea, but I'm not sure how they wanted it to be interpreted so I put it as a bad thing as there was so many ways it could have been presented. Anyway, hope you enjoy this guys! :D

Day 14 of 100 Days Of Seddie Challenge: Broken
The door of Carly's apartment slammed shut as Freddie angrily walked away. We had gotten into an argument, just like we always do, but then I started to say some stupid things about his dad and he always gets really overprotective about that so then he started to say things about my dad so then I shouted at him. We ended up tearing each other's throats out with words and he stormed out. I had never felt so broken. I didn't understand why but I felt so guilty and sorry for what I had said and I realised how much those words would have hurt me if I was him.
His face was fuming and I knew that I had to go after him and I really wanted to, but my feet wouldn't shuffle forwards. I was staring at the door and Carly was sitting on the couch, probably talking to me and telling me to snap out of it but I didn't want to listen. My thoughts were only on Freddie and the way he had looked before he'd left; broken, torn, angry, distressed. I never meant to hurt him, not like that. My feelings were all over the place and I felt so confused. Did I like, did I just care for him like a brother, did I...did I love him? Maybe.
"Hello, Sam?" Carly said, it sounded like she was in a tunnel, it felt so distant and far away from my thoughts.
I started to walk about the room and I could hear Carly still calling after me. I knew that Freddie wouldn't have gone home; he had a hiding place that only I knew about – the fire escape.
I walked to the level 8 fire escape and knocked on the window and I could see him sitting there staring up at the sky in a deck chair. He didn't look angry anymore but he looked upset.
I knocked and opened the window again so he could hear me. His head quickly turned around and he saw me, he made a simply hand gesture to tell me to come in. I opened the window and sat on the window sill, just like I had the last time I had come here.
"Freddie," I sighed. "You have no idea how bad I feel about what I said to you. I didn't mean any of it and I know that your dad is a touchy subject for you and I truly am sorry, I swear to you, I did not mean to hurt you like that." I closed my eyes so I couldn't see his reaction.
"Sam," his voice was closer than before. I opened my eyes to see him sitting on the window ledge facing me. "Don't say sorry, I was the one who kept you going, I just kept fighting back and I didn't want us to argue." He looked me in the eye and my heart melted.
"No, it's my fault. I started the argument over something stupid and you deserved to fight back," I said, getting lost in his chocolate brown eyes.
"Don't blame yourself bad. How about we call it quits and that it's both our faults, okay?"
"Okay." There was silence between us.
"Wow, sure brings back memories up here..." he said breaking the silence.
"Yeah," I sighed.
He seemed to have moved closer to me and instinctively I moved closer, too. I don't think he noticed me moving closer and I don't think that he realised he had shuffled closer to me. I didn't mind, I liked the proximity we were at but I wanted him to be closer.
"It was in this exact place," he said.
"Yeah..." We had moved even more closely and I felt us both lean in simultaneously. Sooner or later our lips touched and it was like our first kiss all over again, just years later and we weren't kids anymore. The fireworks that exploded when we had her first kiss were intensified and I enjoyed it better.
I was broken until he made me better, just by that one special kiss that we both shared.
