4- Sweet Sixteen
I jumped of the bed when I woke up. It was Saturday, my birthday and he was supposed to arrive this morning so I just ran off to his room but it was empty. His language was there, but where is he?
"Looking for someone?" God how much I love that voice and miss it as much. I turned around and threw my arms around his neck; he threw his arms around my waist and spinet me around then put me down.
"Gosh Sam I missed you so much."
"I missed you too sis." He kissed my forehead and we went in his room. I sat on the bed while he just stood there staring at me.
"Aren't you going to ask about your present?"
"You came, that's my present."
"Too bad… I thought it would make the perfect gift. Now I have to take it all the way back to the music instruments shop."
"Music instruments shop!!... You didn't?" I said shocked when I realized what he must have gotten
"Oh yes I did." He said handing me a brand new folk, reddish black and great looking guitar. My eyes widened he totally knew what I exactly want and he made me totally speechless.
"You don't like it… OMG… you totally love it." That was my brother I don't need words to explain anything to him. He always knows what I want and how I feel but too bad he never sticks around long enough.
After recovering from my shock I put the guitar on the bed and jumped to him and gave him another hug.
"By the way before I forget a guy called and he wants you to call him back. I don't know his name but he said something like "when the sleepy beauty wakes up please make sure she calls me. I don't know when to pick her up." And then he said "I'm really glad you made it Sam." Does he sound familiar?"
"That would be Mark… he is a good friend of mine."
"He sounded more like a good future boyfriend of yours." He said and my mouth dropped to the floor in pure shock "The way you said his name… the way he talks about you. And the way your names sound together… Mary & Mark… sound good."
"I'm so busted… I like the guy… a lot. He is cute, totally gorgeous and handsome. He is polite and a gentleman, the kind of guys who open doors for me and stuff like that…"
"Let me guess hazel eyes and brown hair." My eyes widened at the so exact guess "Your favorite, just like the novels and the prince from every love story… so is it only that you like him or do you love him?"
"I'm not really sure… I think I love him but I can't dare to believe that it's true… maybe he doesn't feel the same… I don't want to put my hopes up and I'm not really sure that its love not a stupid first crush… but I do think it's more than a crush… I don't know I'm confused."
"You don't have to worry about that sis; no one can see my charming little sister and not fall for her… I would have if I wasn't your brother."
"Yeah right." I said sarcastically. He sat down on the bed next to me and put his arm around my shoulders.
"Aren't you going to try that guitar or what? I missed your voice and your music… come on play something." He said
"Do you have anything specific in mind?"
"Anything you wrote."
"Sure… this is my latest…" I took the guitar and started playing and singing:
