#Second Chance: Sam and Cat (puckentine) (sequel to secret admirer)

Chapter 20

Robbie awoke to the sound of a door handle jangling. He looked at the door and heard it creak. Out of fear, he hid himself in the closet. He peeked from the closet door but couldn't see who it was.

He saw the figure go into Cat's room, internally arguing with himself to either stay hidden or protect the love of his life. He heard a scream and ran inside her room, but froze when he saw what was happening.

It was Sam, smiling and swinging Cat around happily. Cat clung to the blonde and laughed, overjoyed to see her again. "You miss me?" She asked after putting her down. "Of course I did! I didn't know what happened to you," answered Cat, punching the larger girl's arm.

Sam smirked and looked over to see Robbie standing in the doorway. "Who invited this loser?" She snidely asked, standing up and walking over to him, making the boy shake in fear. "C-Cat invited me. She was crying and I wanted to make sure she was okay," he babbled.

Sam looked over at Cat. "It's true, he kept me company while you were gone. But only for the day," she said. "Well I'm here now. So you don't need to see him around here anymore." Sam glared at him, picking him up by the back of his shirt and pants, then violently throwing him outside of the apartment.

"Sam! You didn't have to do that," Cat frowned and it made Sam feel a little bad. "Oh well, he can walk it off. So, want to hear about where I was?" She asked, walking back to their room and sitting on her old bed. Cat nodded excitedly and bounced on her bed.

"Well Freddie begged me to go with him to Italy to shoot an iCarly reunion show with him and Carly. At first I didn't want to, but I ended up doing it. So we got a hotel and went to see Carls. She just finished school so we did our show the next day." Sam explained.

"But you were gone for 5 months! I called you and texted you over and over again!" Cat said angrily. Sam put a hand on her shoulder and calmed her down. "I'm getting to that. So the last time I texted you was after I did the show. I went sight seeing and got arrested for something stupid. They took my phone and I couldn't get any calls until a few months later when Carly's dad bailed me out. He thought I'd learn a lesson if I had to stay in there. The only lesson I learned is that you can't put a prime minister in an arm bar without the cops making a big deal out of it."

Cat just sat and listened, staying up and asking more questions about Sam's trip abroad. Her eyes widening with every answer. Before long, the two were sound asleep on Sam's bed; her arms wrapped around Cat's little frame. It was the best night sleep either of them had in a while.
