The Sandlot (Yeah Yeah x Reader)

Camp Out

It was night time now, Scotty and I both just arrived at the treehouse. "Hey, guys, sorry we're late. Our mom made us put on our jackets, and then she made us do the dishes" Scotty said lamely. Are you kidding me Scotty?! All of the boys started laughing. Kenny mocked us "Awe, your poor little mommy made you guys do the big, bad dishes" I turned to him and hit him playfully "atleast I know how to do something" I said with a smile.
I turned back around to Scotty "hey, you want a s'more?" Ham asks him. "Some more what?" Scotty asks. I scoff and give Ham an amused look. "No, no, you want a s'more?" He asks again.

"I haven't had anything yet, so how can I have some more of nothing?" Scotty states clueless. Ham leans in to him "You're killing me, Smalls." He exclaimed. I walked away to find a good place to put my sleeping bag while Ham explains to Scotty what a s'more is. I stand next to the window peeking out "it's my sleeping bag!" Timmy says, "no it's my sleeping bag!" Tommy argues. Yeah-Yeah stands in between them while they are tugging on a sleeping bag. "Yeah-yeah, it is Tommy's. It has a yellow stain on it" he says while giggling, then he turns to me. "Hey Y/n, put your sleeping bag down Squints is ready soon." He tells me while taking my sleeping bag and placing it down next to his and Squints. "You know, I'm perfectly capable of setting my own sleeping bag up you idiot," I argue playfully. He smiles and sits in his sleeping bag, so do I.
Squints is sitting at the front of the room "Okay, quiet you guys" he whispers, but there is still a lot of chattering. "Quiet! Are you trying to wake it up?" Then everyone turns to him "It just went to bed!" he finished. Scotty called from the background "what just went to bed?" He said a bit too loudly. Everyone turned to him "Shh! The beast." They say. "Oh, yeah!" He said. They all turned to him for the last time "Shh!"

"Now quiet." Squints ordered. I snuggled up into my sleeping bag more so I would be more comfortable. Yeah Yeah smiled at me "You all snuggled up princess?" He asks jokingly. I roll my eyes at him and turn my attention to Squints who had a bright light flashed into his face for dramatic effect.
"The legend of The Beast goes back a longgg time... before any of us could even pick up a baseball." This is gonna get deep. I think to myself.
"Back to a place called Mertle's Acres. It all started about, hmm, 20 years ago. When thieves kept stealing junk from Mertle's Acres junkyard. So Mr. Mertle, the guy that used to own the place, got him this new pup from the dog pound. He fed him whole sides of beef... and turned the pup loose in the junkyard. And the pup was grateful. And so, in a few weeks, the pup grew into The Beast.  And he grew big, and he grew mean so that he could protect the junkyard with only one thing on his mind, to kill everyone that broke in. And he did, and he liked it! A lot. The Beast was the most perfect junkyard dog that ever lived. A true killing machine." I felt Yeah Yeah tense up next to me as Squints continued "But after a while, the cops started getting phone calls from people, reporting all the missing thieves, the ones The Beast had killed. It added up to about 120- 173 guys. It's true. But they never found a single body, not one. Some people say they all got away, but we all know what really happened. The Beast ate them. He ate them bone and all. The Beast was too good at his guard dog job, so the police said he had to be retired. My grandpa, Squidman Palledorous, was police chief back then. And he ordered Mr. Mertle to turn his backyard into a fortress and chain up The Beast and put him under the house where he could never get out to eat children and stuff. And that's where he's been for 20 years. And that's where he'll be for the rest of his life, because when Mr. Mertle asked the cops how long he had to keep the beast chained up like a slave, they said until... FOR-EV-ER. And so, The Beast sits there under that lean-to, dreaming of the time when he can break the chain and get out, dreaming of the time he can chase and kill again." Squints finished, chucking his flashlight on the table.

Bertram turned to me and then to Scotty "See guys? That's why you can't go over there. Nobody ever has. Nobody ever will." Ham shook his head "One kid did, but nobody ever seen him again." Kenny frowned "That ain't true." Ham turned his attention to Kenny "Yeah, it is... he got eaten." I was getting a little bit scared, I say a little because I don't know whether what they're saying is true or not. "Nuh-uh. No. None of that's true." Scotty said disbelieving. "You guys are just making this up to scare me and Y/n!" All of the boys turned there gaze to me while I was trying to crack my neck "What?" I said annoyed. Then they all looked away quickly. Squints jumped down from his little bench "Oh, yeah?" He said walking closer and pointing to the window "Stick your head out that window and look down." Scotty threw his hands up in defeat and got up to look through the window. He peeked his head over for a few seconds before he screamed. I jolted in surprise. "He's down there!" Scotty whispered. "You bet he is." Squints said. Ham had a bat in his hand now like a weapon "Whatever goes over that fence..." he breathes heavily "stays there."
"It becomes the property of The Beast... forever." Squints adds. I shuffle in my sleeping bag and laugh "Haha, yeah, Squints, FOR-EV-ER" I say, mocking his catchphrase. "Shut up." He said tiredly. Since I was the one closest to the lamp I had to turn it off. I switched it off and went back to my sleeping bag while all of the boys settled in. I was facing Squints but then he started snoring, I groaned and turned over to come face to face with Yeah Yeah. I could see that he was asleep, the truth is, he looked really peaceful and... cute.

Oh no, I think I have feelings for Alan 'Yeah Yeah' McClennan.
