Since then Ben and Mal have been going to Jay's and Carlos's tourney games.
Today is Thursday and they have a game after school.
Mal's POV
Me and Evie are sitting in the stands waiting for the game to start.
Other kids were also here.

Ben had a few things he had to do before the game

Ben had a few things he had to do before the game.
But he is coming for sure.
Then the game started.
Me and Evie waved hi to Jay and Carlos.
Ben's POV
One more errand I have run before I go to the game.
I had to give some important papers to my dad.
When I got to his office, I knocked.
"Come in"
I opened the door, he was sitting at his desk.
"Yes son" he said

"Hey dad" as I smiled
"Just came here to drop off some papers" I added
I handed him them.
"Ah thanks" he said grabbing them

"Yeah no problem"
Then I headed towards the door.
"Ben" my dad said
I turned back round.
"Yes"

"I want to apologize for the way I've been acting, towards you and towards Mal"

"No it's okay dad, I get it, you are over protective" as I chuckled

"Yeah" as he smiled

"Thank you aways. But I think it's also right that you apologize to Mal in person"

"I think I will"
I smiled.
"Well I will catch you later, I have to go to a game"

"Alright, bye son"

"Bye" as I walked out
Then I headed to the game.
When I got there, thank goodness the game was still going.
I spotted Mal.
They were at the very top, so I made my way up.
"Sorry, excuse me" as I climbed passed the other students
Then I made it.
"Hey baby" as I kissed her lips

"Hey"

"Hi Evie"

"Hello Ben"

"Did I make it on time?" I asked Mal

"It started like 15 minutes ago"

"Great. I am looking forward for this game"

"How did the errands go?" she asked

"They went well"

"That's good"
Then we watched the game.
1 hour later...
It's halftime, I was getting pretty hungry.
"Hey, I'm going to get something from the snack shack. Did you want anything?"

"Nacho's"

"Okay. Hey Evie, did you want anything to eat?"

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, it's on me" I said

"Can I get hot dog"

"Of course"
Then I looked at Mal.
"I will be right back"
Then I gave her a quick kiss.
"Okay" she said
I got up and climbed down the stands and went to the shack.
I waited in line.
I was on my phone.
"Benny Boo!"
Immediately I knew who it was.
So I turned around.
"Hey"
She was in her cheer outfit.
"You never came to my room"
