Right In Front Of You✔️

5. I have wanted to this for a long time

"He's a good guy Kevin!" I scream at my brother. 

It's been two weeks since my little awkward scene with Matt. In that time I have concluded that I do in fact have a thing for Matt. We've been spending a lot of time together. Much to Kevin's dislike. 

"Oh yeah and how do you know that?" He screams back. "Because I've spent more time with him than you have!" I scream back. 

"Twins, twins, what's going on?" my father's deep voice interrupts us. "Kevin is keeping me from making friends," I inform my father. 

"Please, like you want to be friends with the guy. Don't tell me that you don't like him," Kevin argues. I open my mouth to say something, but dad interrupts us. 

"Stop it! Both of you!" He screams making us both shut up. "Kevin I get it. You want to protect your little sister, but--" he starts, but also he gets interrupted. 

"But she needs to experience these things," mom interrupts him. Dad turns around with a big smile on his face.

"It's true Kev," dad agrees with mom. "When this happened with your aunt Aaliyah, I got mad as well. I didn't want my little sister dating, because she could get hurt. Then your mom told me the exact same thing she just told me. You can't protect Kailee forever, even though we want to. We can't. One day Kailee is going to get hurt and all we can do is being there for her when it happens," dad stands in front of Kevin giving his speech. 

"And maybe we can kill the one who hurt her together," he winks at Kev. 

"Shawn!" mom scolds my father. "You can't tell our son that," she exclaims as she hits him in the chest and not even that soft.

The next day in school is like every other. I go to all my classes, get stared at by the kids that still don't believe that the big Shawn Mendes is my father and I hang out with my friends. 

The difference is that Kev and I get stared at more today. After midnight today dad brought out a new single and it immediately became a hit. How he does it? I don't know, but I can say I'm proud.

Although today was mostly drama free, the staring was even worse than normal. To top it off, Matt has been asking about it a lot. He can't help but notice how much people stare at us. He has been asking a lot about it, but every time I find a way to play it off. 

Currently, I'm walking out of school with Matthew beside me. Out of nowhere he grabs my hand and pulls me away from the crowd. To the back of the school. Behind the school, he pins me to the wall and before I can say anything, he presses his lips against mine. 

The kiss takes me by surprise at first, but soon I kiss back. Butterflies erupt everywhere in my tummy while my knees go weak. It's good that Matthew has pinned me against the wall or else I would lay on the ground right now. 

After a while, we both pull away. Disappointment falls over me. I immediately miss his lips on mine. Matthew caresses my cheek as he stares in my eyes.

"Kailee, I like you. A lot. I've liked you ever since I saw you for the first time," Matt confesses to me. "I have wanted to this for a long time," he adds whispering. It's all he needs to say to make him crash my lips on his again. 

Unfortunately, he pulls away faster this time. "Kailee, would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" he asks. I replay his question in my head over and over before I nod my head eagerly. Relief washes over Matthew's face as he pecks my lips. 

My phone interrupts our little moment. I look at my phone to see my brother calling. "Kevin?" I say as I answer the call. 

"Where the hell are you?" Kevin sneers on the other side of the phone. "I'm working on my song for music class," I answer lying, but then a feeling of shock falls over me. We do actually still have to work on the song.
