Benny had been hanging out with Lydia a lot lately. I feel like he's slipping away from me. I can't let that happen.

I saw then come to the Sandlot together. I went up to Benny and wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. Lydia glared.

I can't say she was mean or anything. She's really pretty, and nice. Which is what scares me. I don't wanna lose him.

I pulled back and smiled at him. He held my hand and we went to play. I and to end early.

"I gotta go. Got history homework." I soar then kissed Benny and left.

After homework I went to the diner to get a burger. I saw Meredith and Phillips on a date. 

I sat the farthest away I could. Then I took my order. I was in the corner. It was corner that kind of hid you from everyone else.

Then I saw Benny and Lydia walk in. I was livid. They sat close enough for me to hear.

"So why'd you bring me here Lydia?" He asked her.

"To ask you if you wanna go out with me." She said grabbing his hand. I clenched my jaw. I decided to hear his answer before I tackled her.

"Look, I you're very pretty Lydia and I do like you. But-" he started.

"But what?" She asked. Then I fell of the chair. I'm such a klutz.

"Alana?" Benny said.

"Heyyyyy." I said awkwardly.

"We're you listening to our conversation?" Lydia asked.

"Well...." I said.

"I can't believe you! Do you not trust me?" Benny asked. I raised my eyebrow.

"Listen here bub. I was here first! So don't go acting like I followed you here!" I exclaimed. Everyone was staring.

"Alana, keep your voice down." Lydia said.

"You're right. So lets leave so I can yell again." I said through gritted teeth.

We left the building and I continued to yell.

"Why Lydia?" I asked.

"Because I like him! I'm sorry Alana, but when I want something I go for it!" She said. I rolled my eyes.

"Alana why we're you even there anyway?" Benny asked.

"To blow the place up! Why the hell so you think?" I asked.

"Okay. I admit that was a stupid question. I like you Alana and I like you Lydia." He said.

"What about us Benny?" I asked.

"I want to be with you Alana. But I also like her. I don't what to do!" He said.

I sat down on a bench.

"Well, it looks like we've got ourselves a stupid love triangle." Lydia said.

"Like a midsummer night's dream!" I exclaimed.

"What?" They both asked.

"Okay, so it's Shakespeare. The thing is Hermia and Lysander love each other, but her father is demanding she marry Demetrius. Helena loves Demetrius, but Demetrius doesn't love her. So before Hermia and Demetrius get married her and Lysander go to a forest hoping to elope. Helena trying to get his love back tells him about the plans so they go to find Lysander in attempt to kill him. Some person goes to that forest and calls upon Puck the fairy. He is told to get a love flower and by rubbing it on people's eyelids they fall in love with the first people they see. That person see's Demetrius rejecting Helena and tells Puck to go spell Demetrius. But he mixes up Demetrius and puts the potion on Lysander. Because he has never seen either of them. Then Lysander falls in love with Helena. Demetrius gets mad so they fight, but anyway. My point is they both like the same girl." I explained.

"That was super long. Next time just say triangle." Lydia said.

"Whatever." I said. Then sat down next to Benny.

Benny POV

Alana's babbling was cute. I like that she knows a lot of stuff. Her and Lydia were two different people. I like them both. This is gonna be hard.

I have no idea what to do. Lydia went home. I walked with Alana. She looked kind of mad.

"You look Pissed." I said.

"I am." She said.

"Why?" I asked. I knew the answer I just wanted to hear her.

"How can you like her? You've known her for two weeks." She said.

"We have a lot in common." I said.

"Benny we have known each other for eleven years! You just told me you liked three months ago." She said. She was right.

"I got to know her. And I like her. But I like you too." I said grabbing her hands.

"I have waited six years to hear you say that. Benny I really, really like you. I thought you liked me as much as I like you. Then she comes in and suddenly that changes? I don't understand it." She said. I could see her eyes watering. It killed me that I was the cause of that.

But the truth was I didn't understand it either. All I know is that I like them both. I could see the tears streaming down her faced. I wiped them away with thumb.

"Alana the truth is, I don't understand it either." I said.

"Well, you better figure out which way you like us soon." She laughed wiping her tears.

"I'll try. But this is sort of a big decision. Hermia." I smiled.

"I know it is. Lysander." She smiled.

"Bye." I said then kissed her cheek.

Alana POV

"Ya know? Hermia and Lysnader end up together in the end." I called as he was walking.

"Do they? I kinda wanna read this." He said.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah. Read it with me tomorrow?" He asked.

"I'll bring the book." I said then left and went to my house.
