To make you like me
"Hey Kami what's the matter?" Martin said to Kami as he opened her door. She was digging through her stuff and pulling out make-up, dresses, Skirts, and blouses from the junk box.
"Benny doesn't like girls who plays on baseball teams he only likes girly girls so I'm gonna put moms old makeup and dresses to good use." She wiping away tears angrily.
"Kami you don't have to change yourself for a guy! So he doesn't like you find some guy that does."
"No he lead me on so guess what he just lost a valuable member of his little baseball team. Now go so I can change and go to bed. Good night Martin." She said pushing him out the door.
"It's not even time to sleep yet." He said stopping.
"It doesn't matter! Bye!" She said closing the door.
"Girls!" He said walking away.
"I heard that Martin!" She yelled. Then he heard a knock at the door.
"Hey Benny."
"Hi Martin. Umm Kami left this at the sandlot can you give it back to her for me." He said giving him the bracelet.
"Sure. Bye Benny." He said before closing the door.
Next morning
"Morning Martin." Kami said walking out of her room and into the kitchen. She grabbed an apple and sat on the floor next to him.
"Morning. Hey Benny came over yesterday and asked me to give you this." He said handing her the bracelet.
"I better go tell him thanks then." She getting up and running to her room.
"Oh boy." He said rolling his eyes.
"I heard that too." She yelled down the hall.
"Lets see what mom left me." She said thinking. She chose a blue dress that went to her knees, She put on red lipstick and blush. She started down the hallway, but turned back to look at herself in the mirror in the bathroom.
"Perfect!" She squealed.
"Be home by four Kamillia!" Martin yelled as she ran to the door.
"I will be Martin." She said running out the door. By the time she got to the sandlot the guys were there practicing.
"Whoa who's that?" Squints said wiping his glasses again.
"I think that's…" Smalls said being cut off by Benny.
"Kami!" Benny said in disbelief.
"Hey guys. I just came to tell Benny thank you for returning my bracelet. It was real nice." She said kissing him on the cheek.
"Your welcome." He said in complete awe.
"Anyway, I'm gonna go to the theater if anyone wants to come with." She said looking at them.
"Sure." They all said in unison.
"Do you guys practice that?" She asked half laughing.
"No." They in unison again.
"Lets just go!" Ham said putting the glove down.
"But we have to practice just in case Phillips comes!"
"Come on Benny. Just for today." Smalls complained.
"Fine!" He said setting down the bat.
"Yeah!" They all shouted.
After the movies
"Thanks for letting them all come Benny."
"They deserved it. They been working their butts of in the sun!" He said with a laugh.
"Well so have you so you deserved it to!" She said with a giggled.
"Do you want to come to the fair with me tomorrow?" Benny asked looking her straight in the eye.
"Like a date?" She asked hopefully.
"Of course not! They guys will be coming too!" He said laughing.
"Oh, um okay." She said looking away.
"We'll all meet her at the sandlot."
"All right. Bye." She said turning around so he couldn't see her crying.
