The radio blasts at a volume of such height that he almost wants to plug his ears. Almost. Her voice, though-as she sings her heart out-is almost louder than the stereo. He smiles, because he loves to see her happy. Her smile sparkles in the Seattle sunlight, as the rays flitter through her blonde curls. He wants to lean over and kiss her, but for whatever reason he can't come to enough courage. Instead, he lets the same old game play once again.

"Turn it down, Puckett!"

"In your dreams, Benson!"

and so we play, play, play all the same old games

and we wait, wait, wait for the end to change

and we take, take, take it for granted that we'll be the same

"I'm so hungry!" Her loud, obnoxious whine fills the room again and Freddie watches Carly roll her eyes.

"Sam! You just ate!"

"But I'm still hungry!"

"Well you ate the last of our ham."

"I know." She whined. "But I want more."

"I have to go get ready for my date, Sam. I don't have time to run to get you something."

"Ugh. Fine."

"You'll be fine." Carly ruffled Sam's hair before she rushed up to her bedroom.

"He better be hot!" Sam yelled.

"He is!" Carly yelled back.

Sam and Freddie sat in silence. Freddie sat at the counter computer, flipping through videos sent in to . Sam lounged on the couch, her eyes fluttering shut, before she'd snap them back open. Several yawns ripped at her mouth, and Freddie found that he couldn't tear his eyes off of her. He couldn't' help but study the way her long spider-esque eyelashes hit against her eyelids, or the way her teeth chewed lightly on her bottom lip. Her light pink lips screamed to be kissed, sucked and tugged on. Her fair skin called him out and with the greatest of effort he ripped his eyes away from her.

"I'm so bored." She whined once more.

"Still hungry?"

"Are you really asking me that, nub?"

"Of course not." Freddie smiled. "And you're bored?"

"I did just say that." Sam rolled her eyes.

"Then let's go get something to eat."

"Cause I really wanna go out to dinner with you."

"It's free food." Freddie supplied, and Sam shrugged.

"Sure, whatever." And though she sounded anything but enthusiastic, she stood up from the couch. Freddie couldn't help the smile that lit up his face. "Alright, there?" She gave him a quizzical look and he turned away.

"Yeah." Freddie shook his head.

"Well let's go! I'm starving." Freddie smiled again. She was just so Sam. And-shhh, don't tell a soul-he just loved that about her.

It's confusing the way things always seem to just keep going. Time ticks slowly, but then suddenly it just seems to pick speeding up in front of their closed eyelids, until suddenly bright eyes fly open and the world is just so different. He has no idea how it happened, or when it happened, but she's just so pretty and he just wishes she was his. The way she jumped around the studio during iCarly, gracing the internet with her crazy personality and bouncy blonde curls. There's a sparkle in her aqua blue eyes that he just didn't notice before. He can't place what it is, but everything is just different. And as his life is turned completely upside down, he only sighs because nothing makes sense anymore.
