The Sandlot

Part 1: Moving

Jessica's POV- New York Airport Sunday

I was sitting down reading a book. My sister Chanel was to busy saying her goodbyes to the Cheetah Girls. My mom was saying goodbye to Gabriella's mom. I was the only little sister in the Cheetah Family. I smiled because I was glad to be leaving. I lived in one place for far to long and I wanted to see the rest of the world. I was writing a song for the Cheetah Girls. I titled it I'm the One. I smiled because it was when they were fighting. I heard our plane was boarding. I got up and left. I boarded the plane and found my seat. I saw my sister take a seat next to me. I pulled my laptop out halfway through the flight. We went to school starting tomorrow. We had 3 weeks before summer. I placed in my headphones and slept the rest of the way. I never got along with Chanel. Every since she meet and started the Cheetah Girls she became so obsessed with the Cheetah Girls. She missed all my baseball games. My mom would never miss a game. Non of the Cheetah Parents missed a game. My sister and I were close until she chose her way and I chose my way. We landed and made our way to a taxi to get to the house. I was glad to get out. Mom,"Sweetie's the moving truck won't be here until tonight. Why don't you two go get use the neighborhood?" Chanel,"Mommy why move us here? My girls aren't here." I,"I'm going to play ball." I grabbed my ball, bat, and glove. I rushed out of my house to see a guy walk out of a house across the street from my house. I smiled. I dropped my bat and grabbed my ball and started to throw the ball up and caught it. The boy walked to another boy and they looked at me. I,"What?" The turned around and left. I decided to ride my penny board. I rode it around the neighborhood. Mom,"Come inside!" I walked in and placed my penny board down and started to unpack the moving van. I saw the boys come back. They headed into their houses. One guy ran up to me because I was about to trip over my skateboard with my box of collectable baseball items. He was about my age. I,"Thanks." The guy that caught me helped me up. Guy,"No Problem. I'm Alan but my friends call me Yeah-Yeah." I,"I'm Jessica but my friends call me Jess or Jessie." I heard a call. I,"Your friends probably want you." Yeah-Yeah,"It's just my friend Benny. BENNY COME HERE! SAME WITH YOU SMALLS!" Two boys ran up. I saw the oldest grab the box I had in my arms. Guy,"Your into baseball?" I,"Yeah. I was on a baseball team back in New York." Chanel,"JESSICA HURRY UP! I WANT TO BE ON MY BED AND CALL THE GIRLS SINCE IT'S ALMOST 1 THERE!" I,"COME GET YOUR STUFF YOURSELF CHANEL I'M NOT YOUR SLAVE!" Chanel,"Whatever loser!" I,"Whatever to you to!" Yeah-Yeah,"Sister?" I,"Yeah. You two are?" Yeah-Yeah,"That's Smalls and Benny." Benny,"Hi." Smalls helped me grab my little things. Benny grabbed my baseball equipment. Yeah-Yeah grabbed my box of pictures while I grabbed my trophies. I,"Chanel your stuff is by the trash!" Chanel ran in her high heels to the moving van. I ran to my room with the boys. Benny,"Why did you something like that?" I,"She always does that to about my baseball equipment." Smalls,"What school you going to?" I,"I think the only one in this neighborhood." Yeah-Yeah,"We go there. Well we'll let you unpack. See you tomorrow on the bus." They walked down the stairs and out the house. I smiled. I think Benny is cute.

Benny's POV- Neighborhood

I walked out of Jessica's house. I smiled. She was beautiful. Smalls,"I think Benny is finally falling for something other than baseball." Yeah-Yeah,"Yeah-Yeah. He's smiling." I,"Shut up you two." I ran to my house to get to bed so I can see her tomorrow morning. Next Morning... I woke up to my alarm. I looked out my window and saw Jessica just waking up. She went to her phone and played music. I saw her dancing around and picking out her clothes. She played a song and grabbed her hair brush and sung into it. I took my phone and video recorded her. She was ready to go and she grabbed her backpack while her sister was on her phone. Jessica looked at me and waved for me to come down. I ran downstairs and walked out the door dressed like I normally do. Jessica smiled at me. I smiled back and held out my hand for her baseball equipment. She gladly handed over her equipment. I smiled and walked to the bus. Smalls brought 3 sets of toast for us. He handed one to Yeah-Yeah, one to Jessica who got it snatched out of her hand by Chanel and me. I gave mine to Jessica who took a slice and left a slice to me. We meet up with the Timmions siblings as there mom handed us bottled Orange Juice. Jessica's sister took hers. I asked for two and handed one to Jessica. Chanel walked to Wendy and started a conversation. Yeah-Yeah and Ham we're in a deep conversation about Babe Ruth. I was talking to Jessica about her life. Jessica,"My dad left when I was 3. Chanel was 5. That was 10 years ago. I miss him. He said before he left to follow my heart and take care of myself. I have and I always will." I smiled at Jessica as the bus came. Bertram, Nunez and Squints lived in a different neighborhood. The Timmions siblings, Yeah-Yeah, Smalls, Ham, and myself live in the same location. Jessica walked onto the bus after Chanel and before me. Yeah-Yeah,"Yo Jess and Benny over here!" We smiled and walked to the boys. Smalls sat next to Yeah-Yeah while I sat with Jessica. Wendy and Chanel were laughing at Jessica sitting with 9 boys. Jessica,"Chanel shut up nobody wants to hear your comments!" Jessica was annoyed.

Jessica's POV- Bus

I was iterated with Chanel. I felt a hand on mine. I saw Benny smile down at me. I,"Thanks." Benny,"No Problem." We arrived at school. I got off the bus to feel another hand on my other one. I saw Yeah-Yeah smile at me. I,"Thanks." Yeah-Yeah,"No Problem." Bertram,"A girl finally made Yeah-Yeah stop saying Yeah-Yeah in front of his sentence?" Yeah-Yeah,"Yeah-Yeah Shut Up Bertram!" I smiled and giggled. I was scared to go to class. I saw Chanel grab her schedule. Chanel,"Stay away from me. We are not sister's and I'm not sitting with you at lunch!" I realized this was like my old school. Ham,"We're here for you." I smiled. I walked to my locker. I put my equipment into my locker. A guy,"Yo Rodriguez who's the chick?" Benny,"No one to your importance Phillips." Yeah-Yeah," Yeah-Yeah just leave her alone Phillips!" Phillips,"She looks stunning I can't leave her alone with her looking like that." Yeah-Yeah and Benny,"Touch her and your dead Phillips!" Smalls dragged me to my first period. Benny and Yeah-Yeah sat in their seats with DeNunez and Bertram. The only seat that was open was right next to Phillips. Benny looked pissed. Teacher,"Hi Mrs.Gonzalez where did you move from?" I,"New York City." Teacher,"I'm Mrs. Singer if you need anything let me know." I nodded my head. Mrs. Singer,"I guess your only option is to sit next to Andrew Phillips." I looked at the boys. Benny didn't look to happy. I told myself that I would calm him down later. I had a free period next period. I hope Benny does to. I took my seat. I felt stares into my back. It was Benny and Yeah-Yeah. I,"I'm fine." Yeah-Yeah looked at Bertram and focused on a baseball magazine. Benny didn't look convinced. Finally the bell rang. I felt a presence beside me. I smiled as Benny took my hand and my backpack. Benny,"Let's go stop by your locker. I don't have a free period but I want you to sit by my class." I smiled and kissed his cheek. We walked to my locker. Benny walked with Yeah-Yeah and DeNunez to class while Smalls said he would walk me to Benny's classroom after I get my stuff. I heard a push and shove of someone. I turned to see Smalls on the ground. I saw Phillips in front of me. I was pushed into my locker. I was in pain. I saw Tommy, Timmy, Bertram and Ham come around the corner. I looked at them. I,"GET BENNY AND YEAH-YEAH!" I was pushed harder into the locker. I saw all 4 boys run off. I guess they went to get the boys.

Yeah-Yeah's POV- His Classroom

I was in class sitting waiting for our teacher to walk in. I had class with Squints and Smalls. I was wondering where Smalls was. I saw Tommy and Timmy run in. They had class with Ham. Tommy," Jessica." Timmy," Phillips." Tommy," Jessica's locker." Timmy,"Smalls on the floor." I jumped up and ran out of the classroom with Squints, Tommy, and Timmy behind me.

Benny's POV- His Classroom

I was in class with DeNunez and Bertram. I was wondering where Bertram was. I saw him come running in. I also saw Ham. He had class with the Timmion siblings. Ham,"Jessica and Phillips." Bertram,"Jessica's locker and Smalls on the floor." I took off with DeNunez, Bertram and Ham behind me. I ran into Yeah-Yeah. We took off spiriting through the halls to Jessica's locker. I saw Phillips. Phillips,"Where's Rodriguez?" Jessica,"I really don't know." I hopped she saw me. I guess she didn't. Yeah-Yeah,"Go save your girl Benny." I saw something I hoped I never see happen to Jessica. I saw Phillips slap Jessica in the face and push her against the locker. It couldn't take it. I walked over and grabbed Phillips and pushed him into the locker. I,"Well settle this on my turf and that means a fight." I wasn't to happy but I walked to lunch while the boys ran to Jessica and Smalls. Jessica ran after me. Jessica,"BENJI!" I,"What!" Jessica was about to say something when I saw her pass out. I ran to her and cried.
