Serene Girl mentioned the story "Torn Between Girls" (by Citysinger13).

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6687377/1/Torn_Between_Girls

For those of you who aren't familiar with it, this story depicts a new girl named Liz arriving in town, and finding herself (in very short order) the object of romantic interest from Freddie, polite indifference from Carly, and open, unremitting hostility from Sam.

The story switches back and forth between the POV of each of the four main characters, as Freddie forms a relationship with Liz, and both Carly and Sam begin feeling jealous. The author does a wonderful job of portraying all four characters in a very positive, sympathetic light as their feelings for each other come out, and Freddie realizes that he has to make a choice between three different girls, each of whom has (in her own way) laid a claim to his heart.

In a clever twist, the author actually wrote four different endings (one for Freddie choosing each of the three girls, and a fourth ending in which he chooses to just be friends with all of them instead), and ran a poll on her profile page asking her readers to choose which ending they wanted to happen.

The ending that won became the "official" ending, and the other three were posted as "alternate" endings, in the order in which they did in the poll.

I thought that "Torn Between Girls" was a very well-written story, and it didn't get nearly as much attention (or reviews) as it deserved. The author has since posted a sequel, "You're The One For Me," which I also think is very good.

Citysinger13 has stated that the story is coming to an end now, much sooner than I would have liked ... but there's always hope that she'll write more stories for the Freddie/Liz/Carly/Sam storyline.

I'm hoping that what would help is if she were to get more reviews and encouragement for both of her stories ... so if anybody here is interested at all, Serene Girl and I would both very much appreciate it if you could take a look at Citysinger13's stories and review them.

As my sister mentioned, Carly and Freddie became a couple in one of the alternate endings, not the official one, so you can't really consider this a Creddie story ... but the stories do offer some very touching Carly/Freddie moments, and for those who are interested, some great Sam/Freddie moments as well.

I have to admit that my sister and I have something of a vested interest in this ... After the conclusion of "Torn Between Girls," my sister and I exchanged a few messages with the author, in which we offered her some suggestions for what could happen in a sequel, and she has actually put some of our ideas to use in "You're The One For Me."

So we're really hoping that you'll help out, because there is yet a lot of potential for more stories from this very talented writer.
