Obsession, Sequel to Obsessed // The Sandlot

0.11

After school we decided to walk to Vincent's drug store to pick up a new ball and some bazooka bubble gum.

Ever since this morning me and Benny haven't spoke about anything relationship wise. We did both admit our feelings to each other but we just left it at that. I'm still nervous but when I think about it out of all the people that left my life or hurt it in some way he is the only one who has always been there for me.

"Me and Bobby will share for bat" Benny announced and they nodded.

"I'm up first Rodriguez" I said and he laughed.

"Who said that?" He asked and I laughed quickly grabbing the bat.

"Me" I said. He tried to grab the bat from me but I held it out as far from him as he could and before any of us knew it we were in the same position as we were in the diner.

We stopped and paused just like before. His eyes flicked to my lips and I couldn't breath.

"Screw it" I said and shoved his lips on to mine. I slowly lowered the bat and kissed back.

"Golly" we heard the boys say dropping there gloves. Benny grabbed my wrists tightly then broke the kiss.

"No running away this time" he said keeping his forehead pressed against mine.

"What the hell?" Bertram blurted out and we looked at him.

"Yeah yeah when did it become Opposite Day" Yeah Yeah asked and I rolled my eyes.

"Leave it alone guys" I mumbled but they wouldn't stop.

"Dude when did you like her?"

"I thought you guys always got annoyed by eachother"

"Your only supposed to be best friends"

"What about Jessica?"

That's last one hurt me. What about Jessica she is dead and has been for a while now they shouldn't be mad for Benny moving on.

"Whatever guys" I snapped and ran off. I ran back home and to my room and just laid down on my bed. I decided this wasn't the way to go so I got up. I ran into the kitchen stealing flowers out of a vase and running to the town graveyard. I looked everywhere until I found a Jessica Summers. I plopped down on the ground in front of her grave. I set the flowers right on top. 'Jessica Summers loving daughter' it read with the date she was born and the date she died.

"You know of all places I would go I somehow ended up here. I never got to know you we went to school together but never had classes and when you got to know Benny him and I weren't talking but we have been best friends since we were little. I would be lying if I didn't say we were drifting apart before. The summer before he hung out with you I didn't play at the sandlot with him all summer and of course I missed out because that was when Smalls came then after that he was dating you and we weren't talking so I missed another summer. I shouldn't even be here because it's been four weeks since you have been gone and I'm already in your boyfriends arms. Such a nice person I am but I just wanted to thank you for taking care of him. The blockhead means more to me than anyone, he is and has been the only person that was always there for me and he needed someone like you not like me I may seem strong but I'm just a scared lost little girl" after my rant I just stared at the grave hoping she could just say one thing from the heavens and guide me but I never knew the girl and I knew it wouldn't happen.

"Bobby?" I heard a voice question behind me. I turned and my mouth fell open.
