After the movie...
Catherine's Point of Veiw....
Camden and I went to see 'The Great Escape'. It was alright to be with Camden and his friends but I think I am ready to forgive Ham and go back to my normal life maybe with Camden in it.
We walked for the longest time just in silence.
We get to my street and a breeze picks up. I shiver and then, remember that I still have his letter jacket.
"Camden?" I ask.
"Yah?" He says turning towards me.
"Do you want to come in?" I ask, quietly.
"Uhm, sure."
"Okay." I unlock my front door and go inside.
I slip off my flats and take off his jacket, putting it on the coat rack.
"Catherine?" I hear a guy ask.
I tell Camden to help himself to whatever and go to my room.
I open the door and see Scotty sitting on my bed. "What up little bro?" I ask, smiling.
"Well me, Yah-Yah, and Squints need help." I see Yah-Yah and Squints sitting on my bed.
"Okay just give me a second." I hold up a finger and go to send Camden home.
〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰
"But Cat... I want to stay!" Camden whines.
"I know but you have to go." I say, trying to be nice about it.
"Catherine!" Camden bats his eyelashes at me. "But I love you." He smirks.
I roll my eyes. "Yah, Yah. Out!" I shout pointing to the door.
He mumbles something and turns to the door then, stops.
"Can I please have a hug before I leave?" He asks.
I ponder then, open my arms. "Okay, I guess."
He beams and hugs me very tightly. "I love you." He mumbles.
The hug now feels awkward. "Yah-Yah. Bye, Cam."
"Bye, Cat."
With that I wait until he is away, and shut the door and lock it.
Now I have to go talk to the guys.
I go to my room and now see all the Sandlot boys.
"Bertram?" I ask, seeing Benny hugging
A boy with short brown hair and glasses sits there with his hands on his head.
Bertram looks at me and looks so sad. I go over to him and crouch next to him. "Are you..."
Before I can finish he hugs me tightly but I don't mind. Bertram sobs into my shirt and I hug him back. The others join the hug. Soon, we all are in a crying mess.
After a while Bertram stops and looks at me. "Wi...will you for..forgi.. ve us ...and... I, please...Cat...the...ine?" He chokes out.
I look up at him and wipe the tears off of his face. "Oh, sweetie. I already have."
