The heart never forgets

Chapter 10: Meet Samantha

▪️Matt▪️

I still can't believe Kelsey's really mine.

I went on my SNS and changed my relationship status. It seems gay, but hey. Gotta let everyone know that Kelsey's MINE. Just mine.

My phone beeped in an instant. A message from Kelsey.

Kelsey Fullerton: Didn't expect a relationship request from you so soon.

Me: Why? Do you prefer we'll have it discreet?

Kelsey Fullerton: No, you fool! I just never pegged you as a clingy boyfriend. But, I like it. ;)

Me: Glad to know. :) By the way. I need to know your locker's lock code.

Kelsey Fullerton: Clingy and then... Nosy, huh? O.o

Me: C'mon. ;)

Kelsey Fullerton: I didn't know you can be this much of a girlfriend type of boyfriend, Matthew. Lol.

Me: Please, princess, just give it to me. You'll find out why, soon. ;)

Kelsey Fullerton: pft! Fine, Matthew....

The next day, I got home from school with a couple of packs of skittles.

"Mattieeee! Look at the stars that I got from school today!" Sammy (my 6-year-old sister) hurriedly ran to me and showed me her right hand with very-good-stamp-marks.

Her eyes widened when she saw what I got in my hand. "Wow! Are these for me?" Sammy smiled sweetly as she grabbed the packets from me.

"Actually, Sammy..." I was about to tell her that those are for Kelsey. But, I broke off mid-sentence and just stared at her happy face.

"You know, It's been ages since the last time you gave me treats. Let alone, anything." She said, eyeing me suspiciously.

I started to explain to Sammy, "Well, first off. I'm sorry, I just got busy lately. But I promise to take you to the ice cream shop next week. Second, those are supposedly for Kelsey..." Sammy pouted a bit, so I quickly continued explaining to her. "But, you can have those, I'll just buy again tomorrow for her. Then some more for you."

Sammy's pout changed into susupicious look again. "Well..." She started walking around me slowly while mock-scratching her chin with the other hand, and on her waist is the other. "Kelsey, huh? Who is she?"

I'm trying not to laugh at how Sammy looks like right now. She's acting like a detective or whatever, wearing a tutu. The cutest and the funniest thing ever.

"Well, little miss detective, Kelsey just happens to be your handsome brother's girlfriend." I told her with a smug.

Her eyes went wide as her mouth. "What? I thought you're gonna marry Ashley?!"

I choked at my own laughter. "What? Who gave you that idea? I'm too young for marriage, and Ashley is just one of my bestfriends."

Now we sat and Sammy continued interrogating me while starting at the purple pack. "Ashley told me that you'll get married one day. I don't really like the idea, but I got used to her being around."

"That makes the two of us. I don't like that idea either. Just one thing I'm sure of, it's Kelsey that I really like. And I know I forgot to tell you before, so now I'm formally anouncing to you that I have a girlfriend named Kelsey." I smiled at her as I shuffled her hair to mess it up.

Sammy laughs while trying get my hands off her hair. "Matt! Stop! You're messung up my hair." She composed her breathing and went back on chatting with me. "Okay, so when do I get to meet this Kelsey? And Matt, am I still gonna be your princess even if you have Kelsey now?"

Ugh. Such an adorable kid. "Maybe next week? I'm not sure yet. I'm gonna ask her first. And of course, Samantha. You'll always be your brother's princess." I told her while I'm slightly fixing back her hair.

She held out ger fist with just her pinky finger sticking out. "You pinky swear?"

"Yes, I swear." I answered her with a smile.

"No! Do it like this. A promise is not official, unless you pinky swear."

And so I did...
