I was on my way to Andrew's field when I ran into Benny.

"Oh. Hey Aly. Why aren't you at the sandlot?" He asked.

"Um, no reason." I said.

"Well, wanna walk with me?" He asked.

"Love to. Can't. Gotta go." I said walking away. I can't tell him where I'm going considering the fact that he despises Phillips.

"Okay! Wanna hang later?" He called out.

"Sure! I'll meet you at The Sandlot after you guys are done!" I called back.

Then I walked to the field. I saw the guys playing baseball.

"Hey guys!" I said.

"Hey Lans." Phillips said.

I walked up to them. "What are you guys doing?" I asked.

"What does it look like?" Gabe asked.

"It looks like your ballet dancing." I said sarcastically.

"Well, Then let's show ya that we play ball." Andrew said.

I chuckled at sat in the dugout.

After their practice everyone went home. Except for Andrew.

"Wanna hang?" He asked me after he got to the dugout.

"Sure. Where do ya wanna go?" I asked.

"Well, I still owe ya that pop so..." He trailed off.

"I'm down, but you have to carry me." I said smiling.

"Fine hop on Lans." He said. I stood in the bench and jumped on his back.

I knew I had to hang with Benny but they don't stop for another two hours.

Andrew eventually got tired of me being on his back and I had to walk again.

We passed the drug store, and walked into Big Al's Diner. (I just make that up on the spot.)

We sat down in a booth. A waitress came over and we ordered.

Once the food came Andrew and I started talking about random stuff.

He is actually really sweet and funny. But I like Benny. Even though those feelings will never be returned. I looked at the clock on the wall.

It was 3:40. Meaning I had twenty minutes to get to Benny.

"I'm having a really good time Andrew, but I gotta go." I said standing up.

"Wait. Why?" He asked standing up too.

"Um, I've gotta meet someone in about fifteen minutes." I said glancing at the clock.

"Oh. Okay. Hang tomorrow?" He asked.

"Yeah, sure. Later." I said hugging him, he hugged back.

Then I walked out the door and ran to the sandlot.

Once I got there I saw Benny waiting in the dugout.

"Benny!" I yelled.

"Aly!" He yelled. I ran up to him and hugged him. 

"What do ya wanna do?" I asked.

"Um... We could go see a movie." He suggested.

"Okay." I said. We walked to the theatre.

   ⚾

I screamed and buried my head into Benny's shoulder. Benny chuckled.

"It's not that scary Lans." He said.

"Yea it is." I said.

Then a demon popped out of a woman's mouth. I buried my head in the crook of his neck. Again.

Finally the movie had ended and I could finally remove my head from from Bennys neck.

We walked out of the theatre.

"That was fun. Even though you spent most of the movie buried into the crook of my neck." He said chuckling.

"Yeah, whatever. It was fun, but next time we are not watching a horror movie." I stated.

"Oh, okay." He sighed putting his arm around me.

"Thank you." I said. We walked until we were at my house.

"I'll see ya tomorrow McLennan." He said.

"You too Rodriguez." I said. We started at each other for a minute, but he broke it.

I walked inside swooning over that moment.

"I HATE YOU!" I heard my ma yell. I rolled my eyes. Mom and dad were going at it again.

"YOU SUCK! I SHOULD HAVE MARRIED SHANNON WEAVER!" Dad yells.

I sighed and walked up to my room. But first I needed an explanation. I knocked on Yeah Yeah's door.

"Who is it?" He asked.

"Alana." I answered.

"Come in." He said. I opened the door to see him laying in bed staring at the ceiling.

"What are they fighting about this time?" I asked.

"Ugh. Apparently Dad cheated on her with some broad he found." Alan said.

"Ugh. Why won't mom just divorce him already. I'm trying to get to sleep." I said.

"I know. I needs my beauty rest." Yeah Yeah said. I laughed.

"Well I'm going to bed. Night Yeah Yeah." I said.

"Night La La." He said.

I tried to sleep, but I couldn't. I kept thinking about Benny. God, he was cute. What was this boy doing to me?

I decided I was definitely going to The Sandlot. No matter what Yeah Yeah wanted me to do.

After Mom and Dads yelling stopped I was finally able to fall asleep.
