"Yeah!" benny cheered clapping his hands as he made his way to home plate. i laughed at how cute he looked when he would have that big smile on his face.
i have had a crush on benny for what feels like forever now. i'm pretty sure most people knew. but the thing that sucked was that i wasn't sure if he liked me back or not. he would give me mixed signals at times.
"good job benny" i smirked at him and he returned a smile back. he opened his mouth to speak but it soon got disrupted by the sound of multiple bikes.
"not again" Squints rolled his eyes. we all headed to where the bikes stopped. and sure enough, it was phillips.
"what do you want?" ham asked phillips. "i want this pretty lady here. why won't you leave them and come with me instead? my jersey would look really nice on you anyways" he offered with a wink and a smirk.
"umm.." i was speechless.
"do you want us to beat your ass again?" ham yelled getting even more mad.
"you can't talk to her like that!" benny yelled before phillips was even able to start a sentence.
"why not? you don't have any control over her." phillips scoffed as he continues talking, "your not her mom, or her dad. jeez benny your not even dating the girl!" he laughed. his teammates also laughed along with him
"who said i wasn't?" i turned to benny and saw him with the biggest smirk on his face.
i tuned back to phillips who's face dropped when he said that.
benny walked over to me and i soon felt hands over my cheeks.
he had pulled me in for a kiss. infront of phillips. of course i kissed back, why wouldn't i? it was a nice kiss and it lasted 6 seconds. "we should do that again" benny whispered in my ear.
phillips then had an angry look all over his face. "whatever. see you next time dweebs" phillips' rolled his eyes and rode away.
I was shocked about him kissing me. just the thought about it made me smile and blush.
"ooo benny and Y/nnnn" they swooned as they for back into position. i was feeling a little to happy about the fact that he kissed me and said i was his "girlfriend".
i decided to go get a small drink of water at the dugout and then go back to the field. benny was at the home plate when i was walking to the dugout. he grabbed my arm and i was in front of him.
he looked into my eyes and i felt like i got lost in his.
"i really like you Y/n. i've been thinking that maybe you wanted to... you know, be my girlfriend?" he asked with a smile on his face and his rose tinted cheeks.
"of course!" i smiled at him. my cheeks probably red as a tomato. i was lost in thought again until he pulled me in for a kiss that lasted longer that 6 seconds.
"get a room, weirdos!" we heard ham yell. causing everyone including me and benny to let out a laugh.
