Chapter 5𒊹︎The Pool

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Where are you going?" Yeah-yeah asked.

"Home to change...why?" I shrugged.

"Take Benny with you. He probably wants to see." Squints wiggled his eyebrows.

"Aw, that sucks for you because I was going to put in a good word for you to Wendy, but I guess not!" I shrugged, beginning to turn around.

"WAIT! I WILL STOP." I wheezed at his sudden response.

"Woah, you're down astronomically!" I laughed walking to Wendy's house.

I remembered that Wendy was a life-guard so this would be even more awkward than it had to be.

(Squints every time he hears about Wendy^)

I was barely leaving the sandlot when I heard music blasting behind me. I instantly knew the song cause it was one of my favorites.

"Too Short..." I mumbled. I turned to see a light red impala with silver rims stop next to me.

"Need a ride?" The man in the car asked. I looked inside of the car.

"OSCAR?!" I yelped.

I immediately jumped in the passenger seat and hugged him as tightly as I could. He hugged my back with one hand and turned down the volume with the other.

"Why are you all the way over here?"

"I could be asking you the same thing."

"You tell me. I asked you first."

"Fine. I came to meet a friend over here."

"Me too!"

"Why are you at a baseball field?"

"I was playing with some new friends I made."

"Are they boys?" He sat up.

"Maybe, why does it concern you?"

Spooky just scoffed and began getting the car back on the road but before we could, the sandlot boys were walking by.

"Hi guys!" I stuck my head out the window.

"Hey Sofie!" Benny waved, trying to act as casual as possible.

"This is my brother, Oscar!" I smiled moving out of the way.

All of the boys stiffened and got scared. I swear, this happens everytime!

"Uhm...h-hi." Benny waved his hand but it was very shaky.

"Hello Oscar-"

"Just call me Spooky." He cut him off.

Benny nervously laughed and took his hand back.

"You don't have to be scared of me. I won't hurt you unless I have to." Oscar smirked and sped off leaving the gas from the engine in the boys faces.

Benny was so terrified of Spooky, it was pretty cute.

"Can you drop me off and Wendy's house?"

"Yeah sure." Spooky has driven me to Wendy's house before.

The car ride was just me mumbling the lyrics to the song with Spooky.

(I am actually still so shocked that I've memorized this song since I was like 4 HAHAHA)
