I sat in the stands as Benny goes up to bat "come on Benny". My leg was shaking. The pitcher throws the ball HARD. Benny hits it and gets a home run. I quickly sat up and started cheering, along with a bunch of other people. Benny's teammates throw him in the air and chanted his name. The boys left the field and started giving each other high-fives. I walked over and stopped to see Donna (random girl, who has a BIG ass crush on him) jumps into Benny's arms. "You did amazing! You ready for prom now?" Benny looks over and sees me, I faked a smile and mouthed "good job". I started walking away until I felt arms wrap around from behind "what happened to that hug you promised me if I won...hmmm-?" I hear Benny whisper in my ear. I smiled, turned around and hugged him "good job, Jet" my body went calm from being in his arms. He tucks my hair behind my ear "you ok?" I nodded "oh- yeah, i'm alright. I gotta go, meet you at prom?" He nodded "y-yeah, I'll be there". (Skip to prom) I get dropped off, I see some of my friends taking pictures "Y/n!! Come here!!" My friend Jada yelled. I walked over and Jada wrapped her arm over my shoulder and got a pic of us together and individually:

(You, except the dress is ankle length)

Damn you look good!!" I smiled "thank you, you too!"

Damn you look good!!" I smiled "thank you, you too!". We went inside and the first thing I see is, Donna, and her all over Benny. Yes, I got jealous over this, even though Benny is nothing more than my bestfriend- bestfriend....that word broke me. I see the "Sandlot" group come up to us "hey, you guys look pretty..." I smiled "thanks smalls". I look over and see Benny, staring at me. He walks over "hey girls, you guys look good" "thanks". Lily, one of my other friends, comes up to me and whispers "Benny won't stop staring-". I turn around and my eyes met with his, he smiles softly and winks at me. I sat down at the table I was assigned to and I knew none of the people I was with or never talked to them. I was looking through my phone until someone grabbed it "hey, excuse-" I lifted my head and see Benny. "We're at prom, get off your phone" he teased. He puts my phone into his tuxedo pocket and sits next to me "you're mean" I mouthed, he gave me a smile in response. He looks at me "you ok?" I nodded "y-yeah, I just get anxious around people I dont know..." "I'm right here tho-" I smirked "before you showed up..". He goes to talk but, stops to hear the principal start talking. He brushed his hand against mine and grabbed my finger with his, making me smile. When we were about 6 or 7, we would go to his house and watch movies. At the time we- well, mostly I thought were "scary". He would do this, asking me if I wanted his hand, seeing that I probably looked like I was gonna cry. I slowly started shaking and took Benny's hand, he lightly squeezed my hand "there just people, they could be zombies" he whispered. I lightly hit his leg with his hand "very funny, seven year old Benny..." I said smiling as I rolled my eyes. The principal got off the dance floor, causing students to immediately sit up and go to the floor. Benny sat up and raised his hand, standing me up "wanna dance?" I nodded. Benny grabs my phone out of his pocket and looks at it. I hear my phone buzzing "who is calling me?" "Nate" Nate? Why the hell was my ex calling me? Benny looks at me and smirks "Benny....don-" he answers the phone, letting go of my hand. (Pov: Benny on the phone with Nate)

Benny: Hey Nate!

Nate: Ben? Why the hell do you have Y/n's phone?

Benny: Because she trust me with it, Why you calling her?

Nate: Give her the phone

I see Benny looking at something, I look over and see Nate. Benny hangs up the phone "he's stalking you..." Benny said through his teeth. Nate comes over "Benny, where is-" he stops and sees me. "Damn, you look good" Nate whistled. Cat calling me? Really? Benny grabs my hand again "nice seeing you Nate" he waves goodbye and went to the floor. He wraps his arms around me and I put my hands on his cheeks "thank you for that.." "no problem, I'm always here for you". I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into a hug. He hugs me back "the next song is "genie in a bottle" by Christina Aguilera!" Someone yelled. "Oh no..." Benny said with a smile, knowing that this was my song. "What-? Scared to see my moves?" I smirked "nah-". Me and a bunch of other people went to the middle and started dancing as soon as the song started playing. I feel someone wrap their arms around me from behind "it's just me, Nate was getting closer to you and...I didnt like it" I hear Benny growl in my ear. I smiled and kept dancing, my hips moving cause Benny's arms and hands to move too. Benny's arms around me...made me feel so protected and really happy, even though he wasn't my man. He chuckles "you're cute". He grabs my hand and spins me around, making me face him. My heart started racing as his eyes were gazing into mine. He puts a hand on my cheek "you're beautiful". I felt like I was gonna faint- my bestfriend, more like the guy I had a crush on for years told me I was beautiful...what-!? "T-thank you". Our faces were so close, lips almost touching. "I love you so much be-" i slapped my hand over my mouth. God damnit Y/n! I immediately turned to leave "Y/n-" Benny turned me back and, next thing I knew- I felt his lips on mine. I froze up, was this really happening? I'm I really kissing him? I feel his lips go into a smirk, he pulls my body closer and I put my hands on the sides of his neck "I love you too Y/n".
