The Sandlot Girl. (B.R)

Part 10-

-=Charlie's POV=-

As soon as we arrive to the pool, I spot Wendy Peffercorn. Squints is drooling, actually drooling, and Benny is just gawking at her. Okay, that makes me scowl. I shake my head, place my towel down on a sunbed, and shout up at Wendy.

"Hey, Wendy! I see you're on lifeguard duty again?" I yell up at her. You see, Wendy's Mom is real good friends with my own. I know her pretty well, because when her Mom and mine would meet up, we'd play together. She's the only girl I actually like and often talk to.

She looks down at me and smiles. "Oh, Charlie! Hi! And yes, I'm on lifeguard duty again. Absolutely sucks. But at least I'm getting a tan!" She laughs a laugh that's makes Squints sigh, then she turns back round to keep an eye on the people in the pool.

I feel a tap on my shoulder, so I swivel round to see who did  it. I find a Squints, who looks like he's very angry yet very  happy at the same time.

"What?" I ask, wondering what was wrong with him. "Did I do something?"

"You know Wendy-freaking-Peffercorn?!" he whisper shouts.

"Um. Yes?"

"INTRODUCE ME TO HER!" He screams, grabbing the attention of half the people at the pool, including Wendy. All of us turn red, and I slap my self in the  face.

"Squints, you idiot." I whisper. "You guys just get in the pool before we get kicked out."

I still wasn't changed, but my bathing suit was under my clothes. In my opinion, it revealed a bit too much...cleavage. But my Mom insisted that I wear  it, because I "Look like Marilyn Monroe!", her words, not mine. I gladly accepted the compliment, except that I have black hair and green eyes instead of blonde hair and brown eyes like the star herself.

I began taking my baseball jersey off, which left me wearing a white tank-top and a pair of light blue shorts. I pulled my shorts off, folding them, and putting them in my bag along with my baseball jersey. I was wearing a pair of high-waist black bikini bottoms. Next, I took off my tank, leaving me in my swimsuit and all its glory.

I looked up at Wendy, to find her signalling me with her eyes to look behind me. So I did, and I found all 8 boys staring at me, jaws wide open. The only one that wasn't gawking was Benny, who instead was smirking. Like I usually do, I was going to smirk back, but it felt so weird for Benny to be smirking like he found me...attractive or something. I've known him pretty much my entire life, so I'd seen him have his first girlfriend and all that stuff at school. Back then I thought nothing of it, but if he was to have a girlfriend now I'd probably be...upset? No, jealous. Why am I thinking about this now?

Instead of smirking, I smile at Benny and walk over to the deep end of the pool. Diving in, I swim over to the boys, whose mouths were now shut.

"H-Hey." Benny stutters.

"Hi." I smile, then grabbing hold of Yeah-Yeah's head and dunking him under the water for no reason. I wanted something to do. "You're it!" I shout at him.

"What the heck!" he screams when coming back up from under the water, proceeding to chase after me, but I'm too fast of a swimmer for him to get me.

-=30 minutes later=-

Soon enough, I got pretty bored. The boys were all just dunking eachother under the water and hitting on pretty girls that were tanning on the side of the pool. Especially Ham. So, I got out and decided to tan for a bit, too. Not that I really needed it.  Its really hot. I might go get an ice-cream. Or a fruit smoothie. Mmm. Yeah, I'm gonna go get a fruit smo-

"SQUINTS!"

I quickly look over at the pool, forgetting about my luxurious fruit smoothie, to the guys swimming (I guess you could call it that) to the ladder. Climbing out of the pool, they all ran, Benny leading them, to the diving boards. I looked up at Wendy, to find she wasn't there, but was inside the pool, swimming towards a child who had sank to the bottom of the deep end. Oh my!

I sprinted over to Benny, who had the guys behind him.

"What's happening?!" I squealed.

"Squints jumped into the deep end, and he can't freaking swim!" Benny shouted, worriedly. Why would Squints jump into the deep end, knowing full well he can't swi-

Oh.

My gosh.

I remember, around 3 summers ago, one secret I promised Squints I'd never tell anybody. And I hadn't, because I didn't think he'd actually do it.

Squints had told me that one day, he'd go to the pool, jump into the deep end and catch Wendy's attention so she'd think he's drowning, so then she would jump in. After she would jump in, she would bring him up onto the side of the pool. Then, she would perform mouth to mouth, which Squints said was "Practically making out." This, Squints 'Mastermind Plan' all because of his ginormous crush on Wendy Peffercorn. 

And now its actually happening. 

 And if Wendy doesn't already kill him, then I will.
