Mrs. Benson stood up quickly and glared at Sam, she was unaffected by the glare.. "Samantha Puckett... why are you here?" Mrs. Benson asked, "Mom.. you know it's soulmates day today right? And you know when you find your soulmate.. you have to be with each other for one day and overnight to see your compatibility? Well... Sam's my soulmate and she's staying here" Freddie explained, Mrs. Benson gasped, "H-How can my Freddie be soulmates with a gutter girl!?" She exclaimed, "Mom.. we're almost 16! You had a boyfriend when you were 15!" Freddie called her out, Mrs. Benson sighed "Fine, she can stay here, but no kissing, swearing, and no sexual movements from both of you. Samantha, do your parents know you're staying here" she asked Sam.. Sam didn't reply and slightly was looking down, Freddie whispered to his mom.. "Mom.. Sam, doesn't have a father" he informed her, "O-oh, well.. Sam, how about your mother" Mrs. Benson asked.

Sam sighed, "No she doesn't know I'm here. I mean either way, if I tell her.. she wouldn't care" she answered, Mrs. Benson furrowed her brows in confusion, "What do you mean? Every mother cares for their children. Why don't you call her?" She insisted, Sam took her phone out and dialed her mom. The phone was ringing, Pam Puckett answered, Sam put her on speaker.

"What?" Pam asked straightforward in the call sounding like she was annoyed, "I just wanted to tell you I'm staying at Freddie's apartment tonight" Sam informed her mom, Pam groans from the other side of the call, "You wasted my time telling me that? Like I'd care where you are. See this is why Melanie is the favorite child, she goes to a fancy boarding school, she's polite, she can marry a rich guy easily. Why can't you be like her?" She complained, Sam sighed then walks out for a bit still in the call with her mother, Mrs. Benson and Freddie still heard the conversation from the inside. "Melanie's more popular, she has more money than you at the moment and-" Pam gets cut off by Sam, "Because all the money dad gave you for child support went only for Mel! And the rest you spent on drugs, alcohol, bikinis, and pack of cigarettes! You put Melanie in a fancy boarding school was because she had more of dad's traits so you figured you'd put her there so she could make the money and you can take advantage of her! Honestly the only person who truly loved Me and my sister is dad!" She yelled and groaned "You little bitch! You are never allowed to talk about your father, he was nothing but a cocky skank that I only used to get money, then when we were drunk we accidentally made both of you.. you and your sister are nothing but accidents, horrible, horrible accidents! You aren't even good enough to have my traits! Including Melanie! " Pam yelled back, cussing Sam off.. Sam was just taking deep breaths to control her anger and her tears, she did successfully.. "You know what? I don't care when or what time you're going home, I'd rather not have you go home at all this week or even month." Pam added "*sigh* Nice talking with you too mom.." Sam uttered sarcastically while in the call, she then hung up.

Sam walks inside the Benson's apartment with still a casual facial expression like nothing happened, "Well she said I can stay overnight.." she informed them, Mrs. Benson sighed then nods. Yes, Marissa did feel pity on her but she also still stood ground so that Sam doesn't get very close to her son. "I'll help you get some of your clothes from Carly's apartment" Freddie insisted, "Freddie, she can do that herself. The Shay's apartment is just across the hall" Mrs. Benson stopped him. Sam went to Carly's apartment to get some of her clothes. "I'll go set up the sofa bed" Freddie implied then walked to the couch to pull out some cushions to make it into a bed. "Freddie.." Mrs. Benson looked at him with her brows slightly furrowed, "Yeah mom?" Freddie asked, "Have you ever thought of Samantha Puckett being your *gag* girlfriend?" Mrs. Benson asked her son and slightly gagged, Freddie froze and looked back at her, "I- I don't know... we're soulmates but we both agreed to just stay as friends.. Carly told us to stay overnight with each other, just to see our compatibility tomorrow" he answered, Freddie continued to put a blanket on the pullout couch. Sam walked back in with her red backpack that has some of her clothes in it for overnight, "Samantha, you'll sleep here. I suppose you wouldn't have a problem with that" Mrs. Benson gave her a small glare, "Yeah, no problem.. oh and uh, call me Sam..." Sam replied awkwardly then set her bag down on the pullout couch, "What's wrong with Samantha?" Mrs. Benson asked, "It's too personal.. I don't really want to get into it" Sam uttered then Mrs. Benson nods and heads to the kitchen, Freddie was just in the bathroom since he had a really heavy milkshake that he and Sam bought a milkshake at Nighties Cafe that had really good milkshakes. 

It was still 3:00pm so Sam decided to check out the Hollywood Arts website to see if some of her L.A friends are up to something stupid again... of course there was.. It was non other than Robbie and his small page, Robarazzi. He gives some interesting news in Hollywood Arts, his main topic today was about soulmates since it's Valentine's Day, which is also Soulmates Day. Sam had her earphones in listening to Robbie, "Today, I'm going to interview one of my friends if they've got their soulmates already. First up, Andre Harris! Hey Andre, have you found your soulmate yet?" he asked, "Yeah.. I-I have" Andre answered slightly nervous, Sam's eyebrows raised a bit, "Who is it?" Robbie asked, Andre made a weird expression of discomfort, "Oh my God i-is that a Rex copycat?" he pointed to a random place, Robbie snapped to the direction and Andre ran. Sam chuckled a bit seeing Robbie's face of disappointment, "Welp.. that's all for today, my other friends just ran from the questions too. Bye to my Robarazzi fans. Oh and Sam.. Sam Puckett, if you're watching this, we saw the "Best Player" Movie, it was great.. keep it up!" Robbie waved to the camera. Sam was shocked to hear him add that, she started to type a comment saying, "Thx Rob!" she smiled then closed her laptop.

Sam grabbed a fat cake from her bag and started to eat it while she was on her phone, she was looking the movie analytics and ratings, some were good and some were bad but she didn't really mind the bad ones. Mrs. Benson was shocked to see Sam so silent and slightly calm but she still looked quite intimidating, she walked over to her and sighed.. "Sam... I have a question.." Mrs. Benson said, Sam looked at her which means to tell her to continue her question, "Since you and Freddie are.. *pause and shivers* soulmates. Have you ever thought of him being your.. b-boyfriend?" Mrs. Benson asked...
