The very same night I was upstairs in my room, was I crying? No way, I wouldn't cry over a stupid sexist pig, even if I was falling for him "Violet?" Mom asked slowly opening the door, it was only me, mom, and David, Dad had died when I was little, can't remember how though, mom doesn't like to talk about him much "Hey mom" I said sighing, she sat on the bed "Your brothers worried about you" she said, ever since earlier on I hadn't spoken to David or any of the Sandlot gang, not even Hayleigh, I ashamed about what happened, and I couldn't face her "I know moma, but I can't speak to him right now" I replied resting my chin on my knees, she sighed
"I know baby but you have to, he's your brother, look I don't know what went on in that Sandlot today but it's hurtin him too darlin, you need to speak to him about it" she said before leaving, I thought for a moment before deciding to relax myself, I climbed out of my window and onto the roof, I usually did it when I needed to think, or just relax with my thoughts "Violet" I heard whispering and I looked down to see non other than Singleton "Stay away from me" I whispered/snapped, he shook his head "No, I wanna talk to you" he said, I shook my head and got back in through the window before leaning out "Well I don't wanna talk to you" I said with anger,
he sighed "Please Violet" he begged, his blue eyes were just innocently staring up at me and it killed me to see him like that "Fine, but make it quick" I said climbing down the drain pipe of the house, I jumped down when it was low enough and faced him "Talk" I said shrugging "Not here" he said nodding his head down the road, I groaned and followed him. We arrived at the tree house, it was a place I found with him a while ago, it didn't have a roof but I suppose it was the point, so you could just watch the stars "Now talk" I demanded as we both sat down
"Look I'm sorry, sometimes I get caught up in the game" he said apologeticly, I glared "Caught up in the game? Singleton you hit my friend, who's a girl, do you realize how low that is?" I asked angrily, he nodded "I'm sorry Violet, I had to win" he said, I rolled my eyes and scoffed "You know, that was always your problem, and I dealt with it, but I can't anymore" I said standing up, he held onto my legs like a little kid and I nearly stumbled off the edge "Don't go Violet, let me explain more" he said rubbing his head against my thigh's, it actually felt nice
"Fine, but lemme sit down at least" I said rolling my eyes, he nodded and let go of my legs so that I could sit "Look, I'm so sorry about what I did to her, I didn't think it through, and I'm really sorry about it" he said looking me in the eyes, I sighed "It's not that easy, I haven't even spoken to David since the game, I shouldn't even be seeing you let alone up here talkin to you" I said thinking about all the trouble I could get into, he brushed a piece of hair behind my ear "Then why did you come with me Violet?" he asked leaning in, I pulled back and shook my head "I can't tell you, you know the answer" I said quietly, he quickly wrapped his arms around my waist and I was forced to look at him
"I want you to say it Violet, I know it, but it doesn't mean anything unless you see it" he said firmly, I shook my head again "No, because when you hit Hayleigh it tore me apart, I am not throwing myself out to you any-more" I snapped, he looked slightly annoyed "Come on Violet, just say it, I don't want anything else" he said, his voice sounded so desperate "Okay you want it, here it goes, I love you, god knows why, but I do, I'm in love with some selfish, sexist, asshole pig"
I exclaimed, he was staring at me with a surprised look on his face "You actually said it" he said, I looked away and mentally beat up myself "Oh my god" I groaned falling back onto the hard wood "Don't be sorry Violet, I love you too, even though I never used to show it, you put up with everything I did, even flirting with other chick's" he said leaning over me, I chuckled and he leaned in closer "Don't" I whispered, he paused but finally filled the space, the kiss was sweet but it quickly turned more desperate "I have to get home" I said pulling away breathlessly, he nodded and walked me home.
We finally arrived and I faced him "So are we dating again or what?" he asked, glancing at the house, I shrugged "Singleton I don't mean to kiss and run, but I don't know if I wanna be with you" I admitted, he looked like he was just shot "What? But you love me" he said on confusion, I nodded "I do, but even though you said it, you need to prove it" I said walking up the path "How do I do that?"
he asked, I turned around and shrugged "Despite what David says, your a big boy, you'll figure it out" I said, I walked back through the door quietly and snuck up to my room before they could notice.
