Harley's POV
I get showered around ten in the morning, Scott is already gone, left a couple hours ago. I put on dark blue skinny jeans, white tee shirt, converse and sunglasses cause holy hell its hot, I'm already sweating and I haven't even gone outside yet. I cuff my tee shirt sleeves, grab my roll of bubble gum and I say "mom, I'm going out" as I take five dollars from money jar on the counter and I get on my Harley and I go to this place that these boys play baseball at. I take a piece of bubble gum when I pull up to this diamond and I hear yelling and I blow a bubble and this group of kids come up to me once I enter the diamond. Some of these kids are just gawking at me which I find kind of funny, one of them takes his glasses off, cleans them on his shirt and puts them on just to look at me again. Benny says "hey" and I say "hey" biting my lip and he says "how's it going?" I say "now it's good" checking him out and he says "oh yeah, thats Timmy and Tommy, Weeks, DeNunez, Yeah-Yeah, Squints, Ham and Smalls, oh wait, you know him." I smirk saying "I don't think I do" scratching my arm with his and my moms names and many other tattoos from my elbow all the way up my right arm. I'm not getting any more tattoos, I have half of a sleeve and half my chest done, I don't need anymore. Scott says "my name is on your arm" and I roll my eyes saying "so?" Yeah-yeah says "yeah, yeah, you know each other?" I say "no" sarcastically and this group of guys come in on their bikes all dressed up in full on baseball uniforms, very clean cut. Benny mumbles "not again" and they walk over to them and I mumble "that's the guy from earlier! Son of a bitch" and Ham and the guy from earlier are yelling childish insults at each other which are the funniest things ever. Then I hear Ham say "you play like a girl!" The guy from the parking lot looks like he's about to cry and I mumble "I wanna finish him off, I need some entertainment." I go up to them and they drop their bikes and the main guy that was talking to me earlier says "hey, you coming to our game tomorrow? Cheer me on, babe?" Benny looks like he's going to rip him apart and this guy says "problem here? Oh, I have an idea, how about this? Winner gets a date with him" pointing at me and Ham says "you're on" and I glare at him then I look at this guy saying "I don't date people that are so insecure about something so trivial and I don't date preps" spitting in front of him and they leave. I say "I'm not going on a date with that" gesturing in the general direction that team left in then I say "you guys better be fucking good or I'm playing for myself." Yeah-yeah says "yeah, yeah, you sure? We had to teach this kid to play" and I say "yeah cause y'all stole him before I got the chance" rolling my eyes. I blow a bubble saying "I'm a different person, you don't know me" chuckling and DeNunez says "let me throw you a couple then" and I say "alright, lets go" and everyone goes to their positions. I say "who's running for me? I'm not running" and we chuckle and Benny says "I'll run for you, love" quietly and I bite my lip and I feel the red coming to my cheeks and I snap out of it saying "let's go, homeboy" hitting the bat on the plate and Ham says "is your fly undone?" I say "no, I'll hit you with this fucking bat thinking its that fucking prep" hitting the ball behind that fence and Benny jokingly says "were out of a ball now, you paying?" I hand him a dollar jokingly saying "strip for me, sexy" and I hand the bat to Ham saying "maybe tell the person standing here that you did it with their mom or something or their sister or whatever. Get in their head if that's your plan" and he nods and they all run off to the convenience store to get a ball but Benny stays with me. I say "I'm not going on a date with that fucking twelve year old" and Benny says "you aren't going to cause we're going to win." I say "how do you know?" He says "their pitcher sucks" and we chuckle and we lean against the fencing behind home plate and I say "most of them do yet they are chosen to be pitcher" and he nods. He says "we don't play for anyone so we have a good pitcher" and we chuckle and I say "I see how that works" chuckling. I move my hair out of my face and I say "what do you guys do around here anyways?" He says "play baseball mainly" and I turn to him, my side against the fence saying "it's life for you isn't it?" He nods saying "there's nothing else really to do around here, have you found anything around here to do?" I say "I mean, if you're willing to leave this field I think there is" chuckling and he says "I'm not willing" and we chuckle quietly. I say "these guys are slow" and he says "they're probably arguing about something or they saw Wendy Peffercorn" rolling his eyes and I say "oooo, Wendy" rolling my eyes and we laugh. I say "if she's stopping all of them she must be something else" looking over at him and he says "she's not my thing but she's everyone else's thing, so, yeah, I guess she's something else." I chuckle saying "you're too cool for her aren't you?" He says "you could say that" sarcastically and stretching with his arms above his head to show his strong v line and we chuckle and he says "no, Squints thinks he's going to marry her" and I say "you never know" us chuckling. He says "oh yeah cause Squints has game" sarcastically and we chuckle and I say "again, you never know" chuckling and I say "maybe he has game and just doesn't use it on you." He says "I'd hope not" us laughing then the boys all come running back and they're all gawking like they were before but not over me this time.
