Random idea popped into my head so, tell me what you think!

I don't own iCarly. I promise.

"Sam!" She heard him call her name over and over and quickened her pace hoping to get away. His shouts got louder as he got closer to her. She felt him grab her arm stopping her from going any further.

"Sam listen to me, please." He begged. He held her by the wrist. She tried to pull away from him but, his hold was too strong.

"Let go of me now." She said through clenched teeth trying to uncurl his finger from her arm with her free hand but, failing miserably.

"Sam stop it. Just listen." He said trying to reason with her.

"No! I don't want to listen to you I don't want to listen to anything anyone has to say." She shouted at him still thrashing her arms struggling in his grasp. He's hand was still wrapped firmly around her arm stopping her from running. Any other time she would've easily been able to pull herself out of Freddie's grasp. She'd always been stronger than him but, today she was weaker.

"Please Sam. Running away isn't going to help, trust me." He said. He was dangerously close to her now. She could feel his hot breath on her cold skin.

"I…I don't care. Just leave me alone Freddie." She could feel the tears running down her face mixing with the rain. She pushed him with her free hand desperately trying to get away.

"Fine," Freddie said letting go of her. "I've let go now, go on Sam where are you going to go?" He challenged.

She furiously wiped the escaping tears away staring straight a Freddie.

"Go on tell me Sam where are you going to go?" He asked again pressing her for an answer. "You don't have anywhere else to go Sam so, just come with me." He held his hand out apprehensively waiting to see if she'd take it.

"Please?" He added his hand still outstretched towards the blond.

"No I…I'm not going their. I'm not. Y…you haven't seen it. You don't know what it's like." He voice was croaky. Freddie could barely hear her from the rain that was falling hard.

He slowly walked closer to her.

"Sam we're all there with you, I promise." He said hoping to convince her.

"Will you come?" He asked her.

He watched her as she seemed to be contemplating over the choices she had. She frowned and Freddie guessed she must have realised she really didn't have any other choices.

"Promise you won't take me back there." She said quietly.

"I…" He didn't know what to say to her. How could he not take her back there? It was where she needed to be right now. There were so many things that needed to be sorted out and all of them things needed Sam to be there. All of them things involved Sam more than anything.

"Promise me or I…I won't come."

Freddie sighed. He didn't want to lie to her but, he had to.

"I…I promise."

Carly was trying to focus all her attention on what the social worker was telling her right now but, she couldn't help letting worrying about Sam and whether Freddie had found her.

"She has 3 options she could go live with another member of family. Am I right in saying she has a father?" The social worker asked.

Spencer looked to Carly. He was sure Carly would know.

"Err…Yeah but, she doesn't even know who her father is." Carly said "He left when Sam was born."

"Well the only options that are left are foster care and…"

"No wait, Sam can stay with us right?" Carly asked the social worker. She wasn't about to let her best friend be put into foster care when she could have a perfectly stable home with herself and Spencer.

"Well yeah I think so." Spencer said looking towards the social worker for an answer. Sam was like a little sister to him. She was just as important to him as Carly was.

"Mr Shay I don't think that would work. You're already a guardian for Carly here we can't let you be Samantha's guardian too unless you want to adopt her, but the chances of that happening are poor seen as though you're already a guardian for an under 21 year old." The social worker said looking down at Spencer and Carly through her thin rimmed specs.

"B…but then where's Sam going to stay?" Carly asked looking back and forth from Spencer to the Social Worker demanding an answer.

"Well it seems like she only has the one choice left if she chooses she doesn't want to go into foster care."

"And…" Carly prompted.

"Marriage." The social worker stated simply.

"What!" Carly and Spencer shouted simultaneously.

"She's of a legal age to be married and if she gets married before this Thursday she won't need to be put into foster care."

"That's…that's ridiculous theirs no way she's going to agree to that. And who is she supposed to find to marry in the space of 2 days?"

"That's for Samantha to choose, but here's my number." She said handing it to Spencer. "When she'd made a choice I need to be contacted as soon as possible. The choice needs to be made within two days and for those two days she's welcome to stay with you."

Spencer nodded whilst Carly stood stunned.

"Thank you." He said

"Maybe she has a friend or something that would be willing to help a friend in need." The social worker said before leaving.

Yeah Carly thought maybe she did have a friend that was willing to help a friend in need. She thought over it for a moment until a certain Freddie Benson seemed to come to mind.

It was worth a shot wasn't it?

Think I should carry it on?
