*Carly enters her apartment and puts her keys on the table and recieves a phone call* What?! She shouts.
Freddie: Well somebody is in a good mood today.
Carly: Ah *she rubs her forehead* I'm sorry, Freddie. I'm just under a lot of stress right now and... you know.
Freddie: What's wrong?
Carly: It's not important, you don't want to hear it.
Freddie: Okay then..?
Carly: But, seriously. What do you want?
Freddie: Umm... Do you mind coming over...? Just for a short while.
Carly: I don't know. Depends.
Freddie: I just need to talk to you for a second.
Carly: Gee, I'm not sure. That's a pretty long talk.
Freddie : *blank expression* hah... your so funny !!
Carly: *chuckles* I'll be there in a minute.
Carly ends the phone call and walks across the hallway from her apartment to Freddie's.
< in Freddie's apartment. >
Carly knocks on the door "Freddie open up!"
Freddie answers the door and Carly walks in and turns to Freddie. "Okay, talk."
He closes the door and turns to face Carly.
"Listen, the reason why I had you come over here is because I'm about to tell you something that will make you crazy mad. So, I just want to be there with you to make sure you don't break anything... like the last time when you smashed Spencer's vase..."
Carly nods." Seems legit "
" Sam isn't coming to help us with the wedding. "
" WAIT, WHAT?! "
" She said she has other plans which probably includes something to do with fried chicken and sitting on her lazy ass "
" And after weeks and weeks of us bothering with it, she just decides she isn't gonna go?! "
" You gotta love her " Freddie says with sarcasm. Carly shakes her head in disappointment.
" Carly...? "
" What? "
" Your not going to go berserk, are you?.. "
" No, I should be going now though. " Carly walks out of the apartment and walks across the hall to her's. Freddie leans against the doorway watching Carly go to her apartment and he says to himself " she's a strong woman. " Carly opens her apartment door.
"WHO PUT THIS HERE?!"
She kicks the plant pot out of her way, walks into her apartment and slams the door closed. Freddie quickly goes into his apartment and shuts the door.

< Fast forward to the next day at an outdoor wedding set >
Sam's mother with Carly and Freddie behind her
" Alright, so I want you to change the table cloths, fix the arrangement of those flowers, place every chair in 12 straight rows of 9..."
Carly gives Freddie an annoyed look. Freddie gives her a "Tell me about it look" in return. Sam's mother turns around and hands Carly a clipboard.
" Oh, I also want you to call my hair stylist and my makeup artist and everyone listed right here " she points to all the names and phone numbers on the clipboard. Carly flicks through all the pages.
"Are you serious?? All of this.?"
" Do you guys want to get paid, or not?? " Carly and Freddie both sigh. "Yes" they say in unison.
"Well then."
"What happened to Sam?" Freddie asks.
"Oh, she just had to do something she will be back in-"
Sam walks over to them.
"Hi mom. I got you the cake you wanted" she rolls her eyes and points at the two men carrying a cake.
"Thank you"
"Sam, I thought you couldn't come..?"
"Well guess who made me cancel my Saturday plans to be able to come" as she signals to her mother with her eyes. Freddie looks at Sam's mother.
" Oh. "
"Okay, Frederick, Carly get to work." She says as she walks away. Freddie mutters under his breath "Never call me that, I hate that name."
"Remember, she doesn't know you much." Carly replies to the mutter she heard.
"Still" he responds.
"Sam?!"
"Huh?" she says while eating some ribs that was left for them.
"You said you wasn't coming and got me all pissed for literally nothing !! "
" I'm sorry but blame my mother not me ! "
" I know " Carly says as she puts an arm around Sam's shoulder. "You're here now and that's all that matters."
"Yeah, yeah. I can't believe my mom actually found a guy to marry for the 11th time. What a lovely society we live in. " Freddie smirks.
"Come on you lot, we need to get this place done."

< Fast forward 3 hours later >
Carly is tying a ribbon to one side of the wedding arch.
"How are you doing over there?" she asks. Freddie is tying a ribbon to the other side of the arch. "I can't do this. My hands keep getting sweaty and it keeps slipping" he says. Carly murmers under her breath.
" That's what she said "
" What? " says Freddie.
" Nothing. "
" Oh " he responds as he chuckles.
" I think we are done. " Carly says as she steps back, standing infront of the arch and backs up a little more for a better view of it. Freddie stands next to her as he also gazes at the arch.
" Wow. We did good. "
" Yep. Yes we did." responds Carly.
" I'm impressed. "
" Do you ever think that one day it may be us standing under that arch ? " asks Carly.
" Why'd you ask ? "
Carly shrugs.
" Curiosity. I just sometimes feel like I won't find " him " and... i just don't believe in myself. "
" Oh, come on ! " Freddie says as he squeezes Carly's cheeks.
" Look at that little face !! " he says in a baby voice. Carly slaps him on the shoulder.
" Stop it ! " she laughs.
" Oh, that reminds me... I've got something I want you to have. "
" Ooo, what is it? "
Freddie pulls out a necklace from his pocket and hands it to Carly. She looks at the necklace in her hand and then looks back at Freddie.
" W-What's this for ? "
" It's for you, for surviving 10 years of being my best friend. "
Freddie grins. She looks at the necklace.
" Freddie... "
" I know the cupcake doesn't really represent our friendship or anything but it just reminded me of you.."
Carly looks at Jay.
" I love it. "
She puts on the necklace and hugs Freddie.
" I'm glad you do."
He breaks the hug and smiles at her.
