Ding.
Carly turned away from the screen to see the elevator door rise off the floor and Sam step on to the studio floor.
"Hey," Carly said, turning off the screen. "What's up?"
That's when she noticed the plastic bag full of eggs.
"What are the eggs for?" Carly asked, taking a few steps away.
"Freddie," Sam said with a mischievous smile. "I haven't insulted him in a whole semester and this will make up for all that time."
"No," Carly said sternly. "This is Freddie's first day back on Seattle soil and he's not going to spend it covered in raw eggs."
"Don't you mean Seattle mud? It never stops raining here." Sam sat down in the yellow beanbag chair.
Carly giggled. She turned the screen back on.
"Whatcha watching?" Sam asked.
"Girly Cow," Carly replied, sitting on the pink beanbag chair.
"Yay." She switched her sitting position so her head rested on the floor. "It's really cool when you watch it upside down."
Carly smiled.
Then, the doorbell rang.
"Ooh, that must be Freddie!" Carly got off her beanbag chair.
"Egg time!" Sam got up with her plastic bag of eggs.
"I said no!" Carly took her bag of eggs.
"Hey!" Sam yelled. Carly took the plastic bag and threw it out the studio window.
"I need those eggs!" Sam grabbed a fishing pole.
"Carly!" Spencer yelled from the first floor. "Freddie's here!"
"Coming!" she shouted back. "Sam, let's go."
"Not until I get my eggs back!" She dropped the line out the window to the street.
Carly shook her head and headed down the stairs to the living room. Sitting at the counter was a taller, very tan Freddie.
"Freddie, hi!" Carly went to the counter and gave him a hug.
"Hey, Carly," he said, returning the hug. He pulled back and looked at her. "I think you shrunk a little, Carls." He put his hand on top of her head.
"Ha ha," she said, smiling. "Want some iced tea?"
"Sure, but soon I have to go home and unpack," Freddie said.
"'Kay." Carly went to the bottom of the stairs. "Sam, you want iced tea?" she shouted up the stairs.
"YEAH!" Sam shouted back.
"What's she doing upstairs?" Freddie sat back down at the counter.
"Fishing for her eggs," Carly said, going to the fridge.
Freddie gave Carly a confused look. "Eggs?"
"She wanted to throw them at you, but I threw them out the window first. She's trying to get them back with a fishing pole."
"Thanks," Freddie said, laughing.
"How was Sea the World?" Carly asked, getting a pitcher out of the fridge.
"Incredible!" Freddie said, sitting back down at the counter. "We went everywhere. I even walked on hot coals in India."
"No way!" Carly turned away from the cupboard.
"Yes, way. It was awesome."
"Where'd you get so tan?" Carly asked, pouring the iced tea.
"Greece," he replied, taking the glass from Carly. "Man, it gets hot over there."
Carly laughed.
Sam thump, thump, thumped down the stairs. "I didn't get the eggs, so be happy Fredward that you're not getting raw egg dumped on you." She saw the tea on the kitchen table. "Ooh, tea."
"Oh, and this will make Sam happy. When we were in Rome, we went to a restaurant that served the biggest meatballs ever. I got a picture." Freddie took out his camera.
"Let me see!" Sam snatched away the camera. "OMG, that's a huge meatball. I'll dream about you forever."
"Okay, let me take that before you make out with it," Freddie said taking back his camera.
For the first time in six months, Sam looked at Freddie. He was taller and tanner than she had ever seen him. The tan of his skin made his teeth stands out even whiter. His brown eyes made her heart melt into a big red puddle.
NO. No, no, no, no. What just happened?
"Okay, well, I have to go unpack before my mom does it for me," Freddie said, getting up.
"Why is that bad?" Carly asked, taking Freddie's empty glass.
"Because she keeps trying to put it in that little pink dresser in my room that I keep trying to throw out."
Carly imagined the pink dresser. "Ew."
"Yeah."
"Come back, though, cause Sam and I have new ideas for iCarly. We want to start up with a bang. Our fans were pretty bummed when we had to stop production for a semester," Carly said, putting the glass in the dishwasher.
"Yeah. I missed doing iCarly."
"Us, too."
"Okay, gotta unpack. Later," he said, as he walked out the door.
"Bye," Carly said. She turned to Sam as the door shut behind her. "Can you believe all the stuff he's done? Everywhere he's been? Greece, India, walking on hot coals? It's awesome!"
Sam was standing still on the spot, her mouth open, staring at the door.
"Sam?" Carly stood right in front of her. "Sam?" She waved a hand in front of her face.
"Um... Carly?" Sam's voice was a little weak.
"What?"
"I'm uh..." Sam couldn't make the words come out.
"Sam, are you okay?"
"No. I'm confused and scared and guilty and another emotion I can't say."
"Um." This was new. Sam was speechless. Carly had never seen Sam speechless.
"Sam, tell me. What's going on?"
"Okay, but you can't tell anyone."
"Do I need to ankle swear?"
"Not now." Sam took a deep breath. She didn't want to admit this out loud, but Carly would probably have the best advice.
"Is it just me, or did Freddie come back from Sea the World a total hottie?"
In a normal episode, this is where you would cue the theme song.
