Chapter 3
Misunderstanding the Situation.
Freddie's POV
When I got home last night I literally felt that I had really screwed up at any chance of me and Sam being together. One lapse in concentration and over thinking a situation and next thing you know, you admitting to your crush who currently has a boyfriend that you have a crush on her. My best chances to hopefully smooth over this situation with Sam was to buy her some really nice ham and apologize profusely till she accepted that I just got caught up in the moment. I mean sure she wanted to tell me something after I told her but I didn't want to be a relationship wrecker and have her tell me something in the heat of the moment.
I was surprised when I opened up my phone and saw all the missed calls I had from Sam and saw her text message to me. I decided to reply to her text messages as I could logically think those through, cause who knows what could come out of my mouth when I heard her voice. From the sense of urgency I felt from Sam's messages, I decided to hear her out and see what she wanted to say. When I read over the texts I tried not to get my hopes up about what she wanted to say, but every time I did I would remember Jarred and really didn't want to ruin that relationship.
When time for school came I was really nervous, not only from the impending meeting with Sam but also with the newly acquired fans of Closed Circuits. To say I've never experienced this type of status before is a MAJOR understatement. When I walked into the school it felt as if everyone was watching me. I felt my phone vibrate and saw that it was a message from Brad.
From Brad
To Freddie
HEY BENSON! Come to the cafeteria once you reach the school! We're like celebrities now I'm not even kidding. I've been proposed to like 2 times today.
I quickly ran to the canteen to see what Brad was on about. When I pushed open the cafeteria doors, it was chaos! The guys were all standing on top of a lunch table while girls were screaming out everyone's name. It wasn't until Brad pointed out that I had come in that they all turned around and started to scream my name. I was quickly ushered to the table where all the others were and was blind sided by how many people there were that were here for us. I had to ask Shane what all this was about.
"Shane! What's going on?" screaming to someone who was next to you in a school cafeteria was a strange feeling.
"Well someone put us up on Splashface and now we are like celebrities!" Shane then turned back to the crowd and started posing for pictures.
All the girls and even some guys were cheering our names and singing the song we sang the day before. There were even some signs with our names and pictures and even some with our names inside love hearts. It looked like someone had set this up and now I was curious as to who and why.
I looked around and saw girls from every grade chanting and cheering our names, and it was a little overwhelming to be honest but it also felt good. While all this attention from all these girls was good, their was really only one girl who I craved attention from but she was also someone else's at this current point in time. I let that sink in and now this small fame meant little to me but now it wasn't only about me, it was also about all the other members of Closed Circuits and I wouldn't let them down. After about a minute of waving and posing for pictures as a group someone had passed up a microphone for us to talk into.
We all looked at each other as everyone started to silence each other as they saw one of us was going to speak. We knew whoever spoke now would be seen as the leader of our little boy band so it was sort of a crucial moment in our bands history. Brad nudged me forward and the others were also nodding their heads at me to go forward. I shakily brought the microphone to my mouth to speak as the crowd went silent.
"Hey guys I'm Freddie, this is Brad, Shane and Gib and we are Closed Circuits!" I stopped their as the fans were now starting to cheer and chant our names. "Okay guys calm down now, we would like to thank you guys for receiving us so positively. We are only new so we don't have a web site, twitter or facebook you can follow us on but if you want we could so what do you guys think?" Everyone was nodding their heads and screaming yes and chanting when's our next appearance or show "Well we will get to working on them soon, but in the meantime if you want to see more of us you won't have to wait long as we will be appearing on iCarly this Friday!"
After five more minutes we had to be escorted out of the cafeteria by the teachers and we were more than happy to as it was getting a little out of control. We hadn't even seen Carly, Sam or Jarred today either. When first period came we all waited till the fans had gone to class before we headed our different directions.
Luckily I didn't have any classes with Sam until after lunch so it gave me some time to mentally prepare for thing that she could say to me and my responses to them. All the scenarios either ended up with me in hospital or me with a broken heart. In the class before lunch I was with Brad who lapping up all the attention from all our new admirers. He noticed that I wasn't in a very cheerful mood.
"Hey Freddie, are you alright man? I thought that you would be the one to enjoy most of this attention from all these girls. What's on your mind?" I saw that he was concerned with my behaviour, as it was my idea to form the boy band to get the attention of girls.
"Nothing...its just that last night I told Sam how I felt about her..." I looked towards the ground as I waited for Brad's reaction, he knew that I liked her but he had told me to wait till she was single again.
"Well...what did she say?"
"Well... I sort of...didn't wait for her response..."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN!"
"I told her then walked off what's the big deal?"
"You drop a bombshell on the girl then you go and then you LEAVE! How would you feel if she dropped that on you then left without waiting for what you had to say HUH!" Brad was getting angry at me now and I started to think about how wrong I was.
"Well I never thought about it that way Brad, but you have to understand that I really hadn't meant to tell her when she was with Jarred and I felt bad after it came out of my mouth. I really don't want to ruin our friendship and now I may have well as done that and lost my chance with her" Brad seemed to process all this information and I could tell that he was processing all of the information.
"Well what's going to happen next? I mean are you guys going to talk about it?"
"Yeah well we are during lunch and hopefully we can sort out this whole mess."
"Well good luck with it Freddie and whatever the outcome i'll be here for you man for whatever you need unless you decide that you like guys. I mean I love you but I don't LOVE you that way" Brad started to laugh and also got me to laugh as well now I knew why this guy was my best friend, but now I had to get read to speak to Sam as their was only like 10 minutes till class end.
Sam's POV
Theirs only ten minutes till I get to see Freddie and hopefully tell him how I feel but their was one thing holding me back and that was Jarred. I didn't know how I was going to break it to him, I mean he was a great guy but he wasn't Freddie. I decided I better break it off with Jarred before I went and talked to Freddie. I texted Jarred to meet me before lunch outside the cafeteria cause we needed to talk.
When the dreaded bell rang for the end of class, I felt that I was going to take a big step in my life today. It wasn't only due to the fact that I was going to admit that I had feelings for the nub, but also if this ends badly it would also ruin our friendship. As I was making my way to the cafeteria I saw Jarred, but he wasn't alone. He was talking to someone and they looked like they were mid argument, it wasn't until I got closer that I realized that he was talking to the one and only Missy. Now let me clarify why Missy is back at Ridgeway, once she came back from her school at sea trip she came back here cause her other school expelled her.
They looked as if they were arguing about something so I snuck closer to hear what they were saying.
"When are you going to tell her that you don't really like her, I hate feeling like some mistress Jarred" This was news to me, was Jarred cheating on me? I felt as if I should be angrier about this I mean he is or was my boyfriend, but in reality I wasn't.
"Sam's a good girl Missy I don't want to break her heart, so I have to let her down slowly okay babe?"
"NO JARRED! I hate being the girl on the side you'll have to choose between me and Sam I don't like sharing my boy okay?" She looked pretty angry right now, so I decided to break up with him now seeing as we both didn't like each other that way.
"Hey Jarred, you don't have to choose between me and Missy, you seem like you really like her so choose her I only came to break up with you cause I like someone else" He looked a bit shocked, but it wasn't for long till he seemed like something clicked in his head.
"It's Freddie, isn't it?"
"Yeah it is, look I'm really sorry Jarred but I really like him and you really like Missy so this is the best for both of us right?" I sent him a small smile which he returned it and gave me a hug.
"Thanks Sam, go get him"
And with that I turned around and left him and Missy to start their relationship and I left to find Freddie and hopefully make the first move in our relationship, hopefully.
I walked into cafeteria and looked for Freddie, at first I couldn't see him but I noticed a large group of girls surrounding the table where we all normally sit at. I walked over to it and pushed my way through the crowd and girls were hanging off my man. This got me angry so I pushed them off him and dragged him with me to somewhere quieter where we could talk.
Once we were outside away from prying eyes I sat down and Freddie followed me. I saw that he was nervous that I was going to reject him or something along the lines, well wasn't he in for a shock. We sort of stared at each other until he finally et out a breath and started to speak.
"Look Sam, I know how this is going to go or how it should go. I've seen enough movies on these sorts of situations, where the girls best guy friend admits he likes her only for her to reject him and tell him that she loves him but only as a friend. But then again you are Sam Puckett and you handle these sorts of situations differently so which ever way you choose, just please don't touch the face its so hard to conceal a black eye" He ended his speech with his chuckle which made me smile at the cute nub!
"Well Freddie I guess your brain has got quite the imagination cause all I came out here to say was I like you too you dumb nub" Once the words left my mouth I felt a sense of relief and he was surprised.
"Wait..you like me back? What about Jarred you guys have been going out a couple of weeks now and you guys seemed so happy. He's not going to kick my ass is he?" I laughed at this and just looked him in the eyes.
"No Freddie he isn't, so did you want to ask me something?"
"Like what?" Was this nub really that dumb?
"I don't know like a date or to be your girlfriend? Geez for a nerd you are pretty dumb."
"Well Sam...would you like to go out with me this afternoon to grab some smoothies, my treat of course" I smiled at him and nodded.
"I'd loved too, so why don't you come over here and give mamma some sugar?" I winked at him, he must of got the hint cause he started to lean closer to me... then the bell for the end of lunch rang and disrupted our moment!
"Aww mannnn you have got to be kidding me, I get a chance to kiss the girl I've liked for a long time now and the bell rings just my luck" Freddie looked pretty cute angry so I grabbed his face and gave one long kiss on the lips. He quickly responded and wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer to him. Our lips were moving in synchronisation like we have been doing this for years! Who knew this nerd had it in him.
The kiss lasted for abou 3 minutes till the need for air caused me to pull back and regain my breath.
"Wow nub...now we're both going to be late for class!" He got up and offered me his hand up. Once I put my hand in his he pulled me up and intertwined our fingers. We walked back towards the school in a pleasant silence just enjoying each others company.
"Hey Sam, now your going to have to compete with all those fans as well although you are my girlfriend so I guess that sort of gives you an advantage over them right?" He winked at me and it made me giggle.
"Let them try and take mammas man away from her, the butter sock will be brought out to rearrange some faces!"
"Come on Sam you know I was only kidding I only like you and only you"
As Freddie walked me to class I started to think about how good today was, but I totally forgot how we are going to tell the school. But at the moment I didn't want to worry about that as I had my nub of a boyfriend and we are going on a date this AFTERNOON!
