Benny's P.O.V
        She smiled after Smalls attempted to say hi. Vivian. Vivian. Vivian.
         What a beautiful name. A beautiful name for a beautiful girl.
        I didn't realize I was staring until Yeah-Yeah elbowed me in the ribs.
       "Yeah-Yeah, so now that you know the guys we should get going" he said to her quickly and walked down her porch steps.
         She followed the sleeve of her jersey gently brushing me. I examined the back of her for a second, damn she liked the Dogers too. Could she get more perfect. The longer I stared, the longer I didn't realize that everyone was at the front gate waiting for me to leave the porch.
            When I finally snapped out of it  I ran down the stairs, God I'm so dumb.
            "You alright there Benny, we didn't want to intrude on you spacing out, " laughed Kenny. I glared until I heard it.
           The smallest giggle that I've ever heard. You can tell she was trying to hide it too. I looked over at her, instantly dropping my glare. She simply smiled and turned to walk down the street. Yeah-Yeah by her side.
           The majority of the walk was silent. None of us really knowing what to say. I tried to focus on what was going on aroumd us as we walked but somehow I just kept finding myself looking forward at Green Eyes, .. I mean Vivian.. No.. I'm sticking with Green Eyes, again.
           But soon the silence broke as Yeah-Yeah began to hive Green Eyes her own tour of the town as we walked.
          "Yeah-Yeah And you see that tree right there..Yeah that's the tree that Bertram ran into after a cat started chasing him. Man he had a cut on his forehead and he started cry-" Yeah-Yeah said but was cut off by Bertram running up and shoving his shoulder forward.
          "That's enough of that story, Yeah-Yeah" he said before walking back to stand BY Kenny.
       "Fine, fine. I'll stop. Okay next stop Vi. You see that alley right there. Yeah-Yeah that one right there between Vincent's and the apartments" he pointed out.
         I turned my head to look, oh no.
     "That alley right there is where Benny here had his first ever kiss with Sally Slobber-mouth. Yeah-Yeah that girl can fill up a whole pool with the amount of slobber she has, "Yeah-Yeah said and I cringed. God Dammit Yeah-Yeah.
          That story wasn't even true. I made it up because I wanted the boys to think I had my first kiss already. And at the time I thought kisses were supposed to be wet and drippy. Man, poor Sally, the boys began to constantly tease her after I explained the fake story. They thought that she had slobbered all over me. Eventually I got them to stop the teasing.
           "Gross," she said with a slight laugh and looked back at me. God I was gonna kill Yeah-Yeah.
         She turned back and Yeah-Yeah looked back at me with a smug smirk. I flipped him off.
        For the next ten minutes of the walk to get to the community pool I was plotting how I was gonna get back at Yeah-Yeah.
      God I probably look like some gross idiot to green eyes.
     
        We finally made it to the pool, where Green Eyes was forced to separate from us and go through the girls changing room to get to the pool.
         I watched as she sauntered into the room, waiting for the door to close behind her, before I finally turned and walked into the guys changing room behind the guys.
          I hated this place most of the time. It was filled with old wrinkly men and naked little kids running around stealing clothes as you tried to change out of them.
          The boys and I quickly found a spot away from all of the other people and changed in seconds. Leaving our clothes in one huge pile.
           I then quickly raced after the boys when they ran out the door to the pool. However rather then jumping in my eyes scanned the area for Green Eyes. God where could she be.
