Why do I always end up with you?

Chapter 13: Pit-Stop

Disclaimer: I do not own iCarly. I do not own any brands or countries mentioned. And... I just thought that I'm not gonna write these 'Disclaimer' bits anymore. You get the gist of them. ;)

Freddie's POV: Mall Entrance

I walk over to her and at first I thought she was Sam and wondered how the chizz she got in here so fast, but, as she was wearing different clothes, she couldn't be her. And that's when I realised it might be Melanie. And yes, I do know she actually exists now. I know she's not Sam anymore. And I really like Melanie. Not in a 'like' way if you know what I mean, despite her kissing me all those years ago. But she's really nice and she is the complete opposite of Sam, and Sam had to explain to me that she was real by her standing in the same room as her because if she didn't, I still wouldn't believe them.

"Er... Melanie?"

"Oh my gosh, Freddie! Why are you here?"

"Well, I live here now, with Sam. What about you?"

"Oh, I'm here with my girls, shopping. Are you shopping too?"

"Oh, I came to get something for Sam. I feel like she knows what it is but, I'm still not telling her."

"Oh, what is it? Can I know or...?"

"Well, will you tell her?"

"No. I don't even have her number anymore. She changed it and didn't tell me her new one. So unless I actually see her, I can't."

"Ok, well, I probably should tell you everything that's happened because you are kinda of a big deal in it. Basically, me and Sam got back together and moved here, and right now, Sam's pregnant with my kid. And I wanna be a part of everything and I love her, so I'm getting an engagement ring for her. And you're a big deal because you'll be an Aunt and you'll be my sister-in-law."

"Woah! Really? That's great for you guys! I'm so happy for you both!!"

"Thanks. But I gotta get going. Sam told me to hurry up so I kinda have to. But I'll see ya around!"

"Alright, see ya!"

"Bye!"

I wave to Melanie and walk off. I'm surprised she's even here in LA. Last time I heard, she was living in England. Oh well, at least she'll be here for the wedding.... if Sam says yes.

After a while of walking to the Jewellers Store, I find it and walk in. All of the jewellery here is so expensive! But I do need something like that for my Sam. She's special so I need to get her something special.

And as I was walking around the rings, a certain one catches my eye. It's a simple ring but it's beautiful. Some simple things can be more beautiful than big ones. It has a small, clear crystal surrounded by five or six even smaller ones. It's gorgeous. And it's a good price too! It's $2,000. Perfect!

I go to the kiosk and ask the jeweller to have a better look at it (and hold it). He says I can and goes to the case and gets it out. And then he walks back to me and hands it to me. It's even better out of the case! This is definitely the one for Sam.

"It's... beautiful! I'll take it!"

"Good. Who's the lucky girl then?"

"Oh, Sam Puckett. You probably know her as 'Sam from iCarly' if you watch it."

"Oh, yeah. Wait? Are you two back together?"

"Yeah. We are."

"Oh, that's amazing! And don't worry I'm a Seddie shipper. And, between you and me,..... I hate Creddie. I mean I don't hate you or Carly but I just don't ship you two one bit!"

"Oh, that's good. Because me and Carly will never work out!"

"Well, then. Oh... that would be 2,000$ please."

"Ok, here."

I hand him my credit card and he gives me the bag with the box. And I'm gonna put the ring bag into different one and some of Sam's favourite snacks to cover it up. And I'm thinking I'm gonna propose in a couple of days so she doesn't suspect it's because of that talk we had before. I mean it is, but you know.

He hands me my credit card back and I say thanks and leave. I've spent too long here. Sam would a either be angry or worried. I would rather her be angry...

Sam's POV: Rental Truck outside the Mall

It's been 27 minutes. And he told me he wouldn't take long. But he did. What is he doing? Well... I have an idea what he's getting but that wouldn't take long at all if he knew where the store was.

Wait! No. I'm overreacting. I shouldn't care how long he takes as long as he gets back ok. I guess I'm just having mood swings. I mean, it's not like I've not had them before. Because I have. Many. Because of the baby. Well, ba-bies because twins run in my family. I'm actually not that excited if I have two because it's twice the work, but of course I will love it still. Not like my mom because she didn't know she was having twins and, as Mel was first, she hates me. Because I was second, I'm just a nuisance to her.

I look down at my stomach, put my hands on it and smile. I can't wait to have this or these. I mean it'll have my appetite, Freddie's intelligence and both of our looks. It's look the perfect baby.

Oh here's walking to the truck, and by the looks of it, he has a bag full of snacks. Why did he go for snacks? We have plenty at home and I'm not that hungry. He opens the door and hops in.

"Hey, Gorgeous! Sorry I took so long."

"Hey, it's alright. What d'ya get?"

"Oh, I just got you some snacks. And I took so long because I saw Mel there. She must have come back from England."

"Really? What was she saying?"

"Oh, just that she was shopping there with her 'girls' and she asked why I was here."

"Well, what did you say?"

"I said I was getting snacks for us and I told her all the news about us."

"Oh. So she knows about the baby and that we're back together?"

"Yep! And she said that she wants your new number. She said when you got your new one, you didn't give her it."

"Oh, ok."

He puts the keys in the ignition and turns them to start it.

"So... what were you really doing there? Because I know you just didn't go in for snacks because we have some at home and we passed like 4 gas stations where they have all this."

"You'll see..."

"Why? Is it something I can't know about? Because you know that I don't like not knowing things."

"I know, Princess. You will know, but not yet. Ok?"

"Mmm-kay"

"Thank you, gorgeous!"

"Yeah, whatever Fredbabe!"

"I love it when you call me that!"

He leans to me into a kiss and it gets more and more.... ya know. And we end up in the back seat...
