Ch. 4
Hormones Get in the Way of Third Base
Benny's POV
"I'll see you at the Sandlot in fifteen minutes." I had said to all the guys, they had nodded, "Sure Benny," and went to their houses until it was only me and Rachel left.
"You still worried about Phillips?" she asked as we stopped in front of her house, she looked concerned.
"Nah, he's a munchkin, he falls like a rock." I repeated what she said before, smiling at her.
She smiled back at me, "See you in about ten minutes Benny." She said, then walked up to her house where her older brother opened the door, "Hey Benny!" he called, then I heard him say, "So how's your boyfriend?" to Rachel.
"Shut up." Rachel replied, walking into the house, her ponytail bouncing behind her.
"Hey Chris." I said, then I walked next door to my own house, the only person there was my little sister, Angela.
"Hey Benny." She said, looking up from the TV and her bowl of Froot Loops with no milk, "Where's Rachel?"
"At her house… where she lives." I said incredulously, looking at her suspiciously, "Why?"
"No reason." Angela replied. Girls were weird, even when they are ten. I shrugged and clambered up the stairs, then I changed into something more comfortable for baseball, put on a hat, grabbed my bat and my mitt, then clambered back down the stairs to see Rachel in my living room.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. She looked at me and raised an eyebrow also.
"That's a nice way to greet a person, what ever happened to, 'Hello, welcome to my humble home' and junk like that." She replied sarcastically.
I grinned, "Where's your mitt?" I asked, "And your hat? And why are you in a skirt." My grin faded.
"I can't play today Benny, I have dance." Rachel said, frowning, "That's okay isn't it?" she asked.
"But Dance is so…. Girly." I concluded, looking disappointed, "Can you show up after Dance?"
Rachel nodded, "If it's not to late." She said standing up, "I'll see you later Benny. Good luck," and she was gone. I watched her go with a frown on my face, "I didn't know she did dance."
"She doesn't." Angela said, standing up and turning off the TV, "She just said that."
"Why would she lie?" I asked, sitting down at the counter in the breakfast nook, looking at Angela.
"To hide something, Duh!" Angela said, then she left the kitchen and started up the stairs to her room, muttering something that sounded like, "Boys are so thick."
A/N: Sorry it's short… I'm tired… xD
