*** VOTE, SHARE AND COMMENT****

After leading him back to the apartment, and after Freddie had collected himself, the two sat together on the couch. They had the place to themselves, as Cat purposely made plans that night with Robbie so Sam could be alone with Freddie. Sam had fetched him a glass of water when they got in, she had to give the nub something to calm down.

"Glad to see you're functioning properly again Fredbag."

"Sorry…" He said it again! Clenching his eyes shut with regret.

"So have you forgotten every other word in existence?..."

"No no! I'm good now, sorry…I mean!...just…ahhh!"

"Do you need another glass of water?"

"No!..."

Freddie let out a deep breathe…"Phew…okay, I'm good."

"Glad to hear it."

She was getting a kick out of pester him, typical Sam.

"So, you kissed me, and pretty much froze after that…anything you want to say to me? Ya know, now that you're not nubing it up."

Freddie looked at her, suddenly he became more serious.

"…Well, I wanted say something before I kissed you, but my mind just wasn't working."

"Yeah I noticed." Sam said chuckling.

"Sorry…gah I said it again!"

Sam rolled her eyes, smiling.

"So?…"

"So what?"

"What were you gonna say before you kissed me?!"

"Oh! I uh…"

"Are you gonna start stuttering again?"

Sam was relentless towards how nervous he was being.

"No. I was gonna tell you that…"

"That what?"

"..."

"..."

"That Sam…I still love you."

Sam's eyes lit up. He finally managed to conjure a complete sentence…and it couldn't have been a better one. She cracked a slight smile, and had no witty retorts to mess with him this time.

"…"

"…"

"You really mean that?..."

"I do."

"…"

"…"

Although she was smiling, there was a hint of doubt on her face and Freddie noticed.

"Sam? You alright there?"

"Oh yeah! Yeah…it's just…"

"Just what?"

Now suddenly, Sam was becoming nervous again, something was bothering her.

"What about Carly?"

"What about her?..."

Sam looked down at her lap.

"You guys kissed before she left for Italy..."

Freddie's eyes opened wide. Totally caught off guard by this, he started stumbling over his words again...

"How...how do…"

His heart sank as her puppy dog eyes stared back at him. Eyes that looked hurt, betrayed. He could almost see slight tears forming, but Sam was too tough to just break down.
