Sam: A Day after telling Val

No One POV:

The day that Freddie broke up with Val. Sam and Freddie spent the evening together cuddled up on his couch watching movies. Eventually Sam had to go home. She needed more clothes to have at Carly's.

Sam's POV:

It's Monday and I just I woke up for school. I throw my hair in a ponytail, and I put on a pair of jeans and a penny tee that says "Butter Nonsense". I bought the shirt because it reminds me of my butter sock.  I put on some lipgloss and grab my backpack.

I grab a couple packages of fatcakes and wait for the bus. Yesterday was a rare night that I chose to spend at my own house. I figured I would need more clothes to have at Carly's because I would be spending more time with Fredlips. 

I finally get to school and walk in eating another package of fatcakes. I had to throw the first one at a crazy hobo on the bus because he wouldn't stop yelling in my ear.

I get to my locker and grab my books. Valerie walks up and tells me she wants to show me something.

"I have this cool video, you have to watch it" she says.

"what is it off?" I ask inquisitively.

She laughs and says "Of Freddie being adorable of course and telling me how much he loves me," she continues "we recorded it at the Groovie Smoothie yesterday."

She pulls out her pearpad finds the video and presses play. Freddie appears on the screen in the Groovie Smoothie and he is saying "Valerie I love you. I am so glad you asked me out. Please don't ever leave me." The screen fades to black.

I had seen and heard all I need to. I ran off tears streaming down my face. I am furious with Freddie and the fact that he ever told me he loved me when he was clearly lying. Was it a joke to him? Was I just a joke to him? I love him and I thought he loves me, but I am clearly mistaken. 

I hide in my favorite spot outside the school. There are about 6 fields out back and in the third or fourth field down there is a playground. The playground has a little enclosed area that looks like a helicopter on the sides and the front panel is completely see through. I like to look out the see through panel and watch the cars drive by. I sit up there and cry thinking about how Freddie humiliated me.

Freddie's POV:

I get to school and I see Valerie standing in front of my locker. I walk over to her and she says flirtatiously, "Freddie! I got rid of Sam so now we can be together, like how it's meant to be." 

"Val I didn't ask you to do that. I love Sam. I broke up with you don't you remember that." I protest.

"I told you I would get you back." She says a little too eager.

"I know and I know I shouldn't have gone out with you and told you I loved you when I didn't. I just wanted something fun to get Sam off my mind" I continue furiously, "But now I know Sam shares my feelings and that I am not insane for wanting to be with her. We work. We are opposites, but we work. Even though there is bickering we care about each other and we always have." 

"You broke her heart Freddie" She says. I listen only getting angrier as she continues to speak "She just ran out of here balling because of you. All you have left is me."

She pauses and then continues "Don't you want to be with the girl who truly loves you and doesn't randomly break down crying for no reason?"

"No!" I plead, "No!"

I run off. I have to find Sam. 

I check the vending machine, she isn't there. I check the teachers lounge, nope. I check the cafeteria, nada. I go outside to think and I start pacing the fields. I get to the fourth field when I hear sobbing. I walk around to find the origin of the sobbing. It sounds like it is coming from the playground. 

I walk up the wobbly stairs, across the rope bridge, and climb the rock wall up to the highest point on the playground. I find Sam in the plastic helicopter sobbing uncontrollably.

"Leave!" She screams at the sight of me.

"Sam..." I plead.
