Benny's Pov.
It was midday. My lover and I were at the sandlot. We didn't have all of our team there today, so, we just sat there and talked. Kenny, and Bertrum, and Yeah-yeah, and Squints where the ones with us today.
I was talking to Kenny, as he is my best friend, other than my lover.
I was telling him about how Scott's birthday is in less than a week. And how I was excited. I explained the basic plan of the day of his birthday. I'd spoil him when he wakes up, make him breakfast, we come here, we play baseball until 5:00pm then all of us go back to our house for the party. Which my parents will be setting up while we're gone, then we celebrate his birthday. And the basic birthday happens. Then everyone leaves, then me and my lover get busy.
"Sounds fun to me," Kenny said with a laugh.
"Yeah, I just really hope he's ready." I said as I looked over at him. He was talking to Bertrum, like always. He was one of his best friends, besides me.

Scotty's Pov.
I was talking to Bertrum about last night. About how Benny felt.
"He had a breakdown last night. He was crying, and wouldn't talk to me, until I made him lay down with me." I said in a soft voice.
"Did you ever find out what was wrong?" Bertrum asked
"Yeah.." I paused for a moment.
"Benny doesn't always feel.. the brightest.. sometimes he feels like he doesn't have a purpose. And that he's not good at anything but playing baseball..
But last night, Benny felt like he wasn't good enough for me.." I said, with a sadden voice.
"Why do you think he'd feel like that?" He asked.
"Well, because there are things that I do to him, that he doesn't do to me. And that got him thinking, and he got overwhelmed by it. He felt like he's not able to give me everything I want and more. But I reassured him that I didn't care if he did those things or not. I did them because love him. And I told him that there are things that he does to me, that I don't do to him. And that I loved him either way.."
"You're a good partner Smalls. You'll do anything for him to be happy. And I know he'll do anything for you to be the happiest you'll ever be." Bertrum said as he patted my back.
"Thanks, it means a lot to me that you except Benny and I. And aren't like my parents."

We continued to talk about random things for a while.

Benny's Pov.
Kenny was talking to me about something that happened at his house a week ago, and all I could think about was Scott's birthday. Five more days. Five more days then he's completely mine.
"Benny?" Kenny asked as he snapped me out of my thoughts.
"Are you listening?" He asked.
"Sorry, I was just thinking.." I said as I looked at him.
"About his birthday?" He asked.
"Yeah, it's just that.. it's in five days!"
"It's ok to be nervous about it, and to think about it. I mean.. I'd be excited if I got to get it on for the first time." Kenny said with a laugh.
"You're lucky Benny," he finally said.
"Nah, I just found someone who loves me, and who I love." I said as I looked over at my lover.
We talked for a little longer before everyone had to go.
"Mi amor" I said, as we were the only ones at the sandlot.
"Yes Benny?" He said as he finished waving bye to Bertrum.
He came over to me. I grabbed his waist a pulled him closer.
"Five more days," I said with a smirk.
It took him a second to understand what I said.
"Oh, yeah. It'll come before you know it." He said as he look up at me.
I laughed and kissed him.
"Wanna go to our spot in the woods?" My lover asked.
"Sure, we haven't been there in a while."
We began to walk to our spot. With his hand in mine.
When we were walking, I saw Lindsey in the distance.
I stopped walking.
"Uh oh." I said.
"What, what's wrong?" He asked as he turned to me.
"Do you see that girl up there?" I said as I pointed my finger at Lindsey.
"Yeah, what about her?"
"She really likes me. And she found out I'm gay. No, we're gay. And she's not happy about it. She's liked me since 1st grade. And I was never into her. And she doesn't leave me alone every time I see her." I said as I looked at my lover.
"Oh.." he said softly
"So do you wanna go home or?" He asked.
"I still wanna go to our spot. But I don't want her to see me." I said.
We continued to walk to our spot. But we stayed to the side and not in the open. When we got to the fence, Scotty went first, and right before I stepped through the whole, there it was.
"Oh My Gosh! Benny!" I heard Lindsey yell as she got closer to me. My lover turned around, wide eyed.
"Duck down," I whispered. He did, so she wouldn't see him.
I turned around to see Lindsey six feet from me.
"What do you want Lindsey." I said as I crossed my arms and held the bridge of my nose in annoyance.
"Benny, you know I love to see you!" She said with a smirk.
I groaned in annoyance.
"Lindsey. What will it take for you to leave me alone?" I asked with a stern look.
"Dating me." She said as she crossed her arms.
I shook my head no.
"Come on Benny! We'd be perfect for each other! You're the hottest boy in school, and I'm the prettiest! We'd be perfect!" She complained.
"Lindsey. I'm taken. And I'm not into girls. I'm not even into other guys. I only have eyes for my boyfriend!" I yelled in annoyance that she wouldn't let it go.
"You're clearly just confused."
"No I'm not. I only have eyes for the love of my life." I said sternly.
"And that is?" She asked with a smirk. How retarded is she!? Does she really think it's her!?
"Scotty Smalls." I said as I looked her dead in the eyes. Not happy what so ever.
"What's so great about him anyways!?" She complained.
"Everything!"
"Literally everything! He is perfect for me! More than you or anyone could be! He loves me for me, not because I'm popular.
I'm sorry Lindsey. But you gotta take a hint, except the fact that I don't like you! In my eyes you don't even look good. Not once in my entire life, that I've known you, have I ever said it thought 'oh damn, she looks good today.' No I haven't, because you're ugly to me. I don't like the popular kids. I love Scott, I only have eyes for him. And no one else. Except the fact." I explained. God, I hated her so much.
