Just to let you know this chapter is violent and has a few times when there is cussing. Just to let you all know.

Benny's POV...
After Catherine left to get some fresh air I went and sat by Smalls. It felt weird to be by my best friend because of his sister. I trying to decide if I needed to check on Cat while Squints was telling a story when a high pitched scream, wails so loud we all fall back.
I get up and all of us run out of Timmy and Tommy's treehouse because we all know who screamed. 'Catherine.'
I was the first one followed by Yeah-Yeah , Bertram, Squints, Kenny, Ham, Smalls, and then, Timmy and Tommy Timmons.
I leap I'ver the railing when there are five stairs left and look to see where she is. I spot her.
Catherine's POV...
Phillips kisses me again so I can't scream. Hot tears flood out my eyes and trial down my cheeks. He stops for a few moments and then, starts again.
"Please stop." I cry as he continues to kiss me.
"Come on, princess." He says, sitting up on top of me. I know try to push him off of me but he won't budge. He keeps this up until someone calls his name.
" Phillips, you heard the girl. Stop now!" Another guy says.
I recognize the voice. "Benny." I cry out.
Phillips gets off of me and I run to the nearest person I can somewhat see. I find out I am hugging Timmy Timmons, who decides to push me into Bertram, who hugs me and sits me down on the treehouse steps.
I begin to ball into his shoulder like a child and he strokes my head.
Phillips tries to move closer to me but Benny blocks him, causing Phillips to chuckle.
"Okay, Rodrigues. Try to protect this." Phillips punches Benny in the lower region and Benny winces a little.
The guys look away and Bertram just holds me tighter. "Catherine, It will be okay. Benny will be fine." He says while stroking my head.
Yah-Yah comes over too and hugs me as well. He kisses my cheek which was not expected and hugs me as well. I didn't care at that moment, I just wanted Benny to be safe. I hear a bike speed off and a dark figure come out of the shadows.
I get up and possibly do the most stupidest thing ever, I run towards the figure. I soon see Benny and I hug him.
Benny's POV...
After Bertram took Catherine away from the fight, The stupid rich Jerk punched me in the mouth and I could feel blood gushing from my lip.
Philips then, tries to sock me again but I punch him in the nose and I'm pretty sure it's broken.
He then, decides to punch me in the "area" one last time and I fall.
He kicks me in the stomach and I grab my stomach. I'm a bloody mess and so is he. Phillips huffs, gets on his bike and goes home.
I stand up on shaky legs and limp my way to the treehouse. I soon see, Bertram and the guys sitting on the stairs, comforting Catherine. She looks up and I can see what that bassturd did to her.
My heart starts to hurt. Her right eye is swollen and will probably be black and blue tomorrow morning. We all walk up the stairs but I wait for Catherine.
She reaches for the railing but misses and about falls down but, I catch her. "Thanks." She says, smiling at me.
"No problem." I say, helping her back on her feet. I look at her and she looks like she is about to cry.
I clear my throat and help Catherine up. She starts to walk as I step onto a step. I loose my balance and fall down on the step. "Crap."
"Let me help you." Catherine says, and takes my hand. Shocks of electricity shot through my spine as she does this.
She tries to get me to climb the stairs but I stop her. "Do you mind if I ask you two questions?"
"Uh, sure but only two." She says, turning around. She is gorgeous.
"Okay, um, 1:Can I kiss you? and 2:Do you mind if I kiss you?" I ask,sheepishly.
She stops fiddling with her hands and looks at me. "Uh, to answer question two only if you catch me."
She sprints up to the treehouse and I run after her. She trips on the stairs and I catch her by her waist.
"Are you ok.." She stops me from saying anymore by crashing her lips to mine.
I felt like I was slowly floating through the clouds and flying through the air. Then, she releases and I quickly drift back to Earth. I bend down to kiss her again and Bertram comes running out of the treehouse door.
"Hey, guys. Once your done with your make out session here.We have a proposal to make to Catherine." Bertram says, closing the treehouse door.
She looks at the door and I try to kiss her again but end up seeing her get up. "What are you doing?"
She looks at me smiling. "Well, no offense to your kissing session you were trying to have, whether or not we were interrupted I wasn't going to let it get out of hand hence I wasn't going to let you kiss me."
I frown. "Cat, Don't you like me?" Now she bends down and hugs me. "Baby, I do like you but right now I think of you all as my brothers."
My heart just decided to stop and let me die now than, later. 'She just thinks of us as her brothers?'
I guess a tear rolls down my cheek because now Catherine is upset. "Benny?" She questions, looking at me like it hurt her to see me cry.
"Huh?" I ask, wiping my eyes.
"Did you hear me?" No response. She sighs and says, "I said I like you and your a nice guy and I think maybe, we could work out something."
I smile and pick her up and spin her around. She giggles once, I sit her down on her feet. Smalls opens the door and he clears his throat, telling his sister they have a deal for her.
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
"I absolutely will not do it, guys. Why do you want me to do it?" I say, so confused.
Once she moved into the Valley all these boys swarmed her, it was never like this in Fernfeild.
"We all like you." Bertram cries.
"Yah-Yah. You are the cutest girl we have ever met who likes baseball too."
Yah-Yah says.
"Come on Catherine." Tommy says.
"Yah, come on." Repeat repeated.
I look at my silent brother. "I suppose you came up with this idea, Scotty."
He sheepishly nods yes.
"Darn you Scotty." I yell.
"Come on sweetie. Won't you please do it." Ham says.
I groan. I look between all the sandlot boys. I regret saying this as soon as I say it. I look at all the boys and say, "Well, then I guess I'm your Sandlot Girl."
I receive more whoops and hollers and other boy stuff. I already regret saying yes.
"Alright now let's go to sleep." I say.
"First, who are you spending your week with?" Squints asks, winking at me. I try to hide my gag because if Squints wasn't going to be my first trial boyfriend.
Scotty pipes up. "How about you start with Timmy?"
I look at him and he smiles at me. I smile back. "There are a lot of other guys though and..." Timmy tries to say buy Tommy steps on his foot. "Okay, fine.I'll do it."
