All you ~ benny rodriguez ~ the sandlot

5. Lover boy and Lover girl

Me and scotty arrive at the sandlot with all of our stuff in our hands. we were the last ones.

"sorry guys are mom made us get out jackets and then do my chores" scotty says out of breath from climbing up the ladder. Bertram mocks scotty and i give him a glance and he looks away in embarrassment.

I lay down my sleeping bag next to whom i thought was scotty's sleeping bag but ends up being Benny's.

"your that eager to sleep next to me Valerie?" he says in a sarcastic tone

"shut up" thankfully it was dark out and he couldn't see me blushing.

"okay quiet you guys" squints said but everyone was still talking.

"sh! sh! quiet! are you trying to wake it up, it just went to bed"

"what just went to bed" i say cluelessly

"sh! sh!"

"the beast!"

"oh yeah" me and scotty both say

"SHHH!"

I start to get sleepy as squints tells the story, and a little cold.

"are you cold?" benny says whispering

"what's it to you?... I mean a little bit" benny hands me his jacket that says his last name on the back.

I smile and lay down as I start to fall asleep a bit.
I woke up to them making scotty stick his head out of the window to see the beast. and then i fell right back to sleep

I woke up in the morning to an empty treehouse, everyone was gone but benny and i. i rolled over to see benny with his arm over my waist. i made a quick movement which woke benny up and he notice his arm on my waist and quickly took it off.

"s-sorry"

"um it's fine, but where are the boys"

i panic less about where they are and more about that they probably saw us like that.
we both got up quickly and went down the ladder to see them in the dugout drinking some cold pops.

"there is lover boy and his lover girl" ham says

"yeah, yeah were you guys kissing in there?" yeah-yeah says making a kissy face.

squints turns around and puts his hands on his back pretending he is making out with someone.

"oh Benny!" Bertram says in a high pitched squeaky voice. all the boys laugh for a good 3 minutes

"shut up!" me and benny say at the same time.

i go and grab a cold pop from the cooler and sit down forgetting that im still wearing Benny's jacket.

"i'm baking like a toasted cheese out here benny" ham says

"we cant play ball out here benny!" Timmy says
"we can't play!" tommy says

"fine, vote then, anybody who wants to be.. a 'can't hack it' panty waist... who wears there mamas bra raise your hand" benny says hoping no one raises there hand.

everyone raises there hand including me, it is way to hot to be playing out here.

"well what are we gonna do then"

yeah-yeah looks around and gives an awkward laugh

"SCAM POOL HONEYS!"
