Connie examined my face. "You seem happier than usual. What's up?"

I smiled shyly. "Nothing..."

She gasped. "Oh, my god. You got railed."

I chuckled. "How did you know?"

"I could just tell. You have that glow in your face."

"Oh, geez..." I whispered with a slight snicker.

"So," She scooted closer to me with a smile. "Who was it? Was it Luis?"

I shook my head. "Nope, Benny."

Her smile faded. "Benny?"

I nodded. "Yeah."

She scoffed lightly. "You're kidding."

I shook my head slowly. "No, I'm not."

"Amelia!" She scolded. "Why?!"

I gasped lightly. "What do you mean "Why"?"

"Why would you do it with Benny?!"

"Because I wanted to?"

She smacked her forehead. "You do realize he's in college, right?"

I nodded. "Of course. We're only two years apart."

"Still!" She shrieked. "He's in fucking college!"

I groaned. "I don't care. I can do whatever I want with whoever I want."

"Okay, well, what if he got you pregnant? Huh?" She sighed.

I rolled my eyes. "We weren't that stupid."

"Still," She huffed. "I don't think he's the one for you."

"Geez, Connie!" I shouted angrily. "Why can't you just let me do something without lecturing me about it?!"

She stuttered for words. "I-I'm not lecturing you-"

"Yes, you are!" I stood up. "Just let me do my own thing!"

A groan escaped my mouth as I stomped away from her. I swear she's like my mom.

I walked onto the sandlot and my eyes darted to the treehouse. I saw Luis just sitting there, staring off into the distance. I quickly ran over to him and hopped up on the roof next to him.

"Hey." I chirped.

He looked at me with a blank expression on his face. "Hey..."

"What are you doing?"

He shrugged while looking back at the sky. "Just thinking."

I looked in the direction he was looking. "About what?"

He sighed. "Izzy."

"Oh..." I mumbled.

"She's getting really sick." I could hear the tears in his throat.

I swallowed harshly. "She'll be okay."

"I hope so. She gets to come home for a few days tomorrow."

"That's good." I nodded.

"Yeah, I guess. She doesn't understand what's happening." He ran a hand through his hair.
