Argh - two more Seddie writers deleted their accounts from fanfiction.net - Pock and Ashlee Seddie. I was looking for Ashlee Seddie's hilarious story "Hidden" just to pass a couple of minutes at work while I waited for a script to run.

For those who never read it, the story is set in season 4 after Sam started dressing less like a tomboy. It begins with Freddie getting upset with Sam going to a party with Carly and getting drunk.

Monday, at school, Sam comes in wearing a flashy scarf. As the week progresses, her scarves get more and more feminine. Freddie is puzzled, but Carly passes it off as a "phase". Sam just said that she is trying to be fashionable, which Freddie feels is ludicrous. He starts to imagine that Sam is embarrassed by a hickey she got at the party and starts to get obsessed with getting the scarf off of her.

On Friday, a few hours before iCarly is about to air, Freddie finally catches Sam unawares in the living room and is able to get the scarf off of her in spite of very stiff resistance. He sees that she's been embarrassed all right - the scarves were covering a tattoo heart that encloses the name, "Freddie." Freddie gives it a kiss, then winks at her, and then goes up to the iCarly studio. As Sam breathes a sigh of relief, she then hears Carly come into the living room and exclaims, "Is that a tattoo?"

It was about 1000 words to that punch line, but the story was very taut and really held my attention. That line was a perfect way resolve the final tension.
