{request!}
y/n was lying on the couch when she first met him.
when the loud knock erupted through the house,
y/n sat up and realized nobody else was home but her.
she trailed to the door and opened it,
only to be left stunned.
the boy was taller than her in height,
making him intimidating,
but his smile was sweet and soft.
"hey, is uh, smalls home?"
"smalls? like, scotty?"
"oh, yeah. scotty."
"he's not."
"oh, okay. well, when he is, tell him benny said to meet him at the sandlot."
"alright, benny. you got it."
the boy flashed her another smile that sent her heart stuttering.
"thank you."
y/n waved goodbye then closed the door,
leaving her with her racing heart.
"hey, squirt,"
y/n teased as she ruffled her hands through scotty's hair.
"what?"
he flattened his hair with a look of ire.
"your friend, benny, stopped by bout an hour ago. said to meet him at the lot."
"sandlot."
"right. sandlot."
scotty rushed past her to find his glove,
and was soon out of the house and on his way to the sandlot.
when he arrived,
benny stopped himself mid-pitch to greet him.
"hey, smalls."
"hey, benny."
"so, uh, your sister? you didn't tell me she was-"
"oh god, benny, no! you can't like her!"
"relax!"
benny chuckled and laid a hand to scotty's shoulder.
"i don't like her. she's just...cute."
"ah man, this conversation is making me nauseous."
scotty groaned and shook his head in disbelief.
his only friend was making a move on his older sister.
a genuine recipe for disaster.
"you wouldn't like her. she's-she's a brat."
"yeah?"
benny grinned and shook his head with a laugh.
"alright. come on, smalls. let's play some ball."
benny kept his thoughts full of the girl while he played.
he remembered the sweet smell of her perfume,
the adoring smile against her lips,
her flawless skin.
though because of the distraction that was y/n,
he played worse than ever before.
all the boys groaned and yelled at him,
but all he could hear was the melodic voice of y/n.
as the game drew to an end,
benny remained the only one in the lot for the night.
he was stuck between letting his mind play out scenarios involving y/n,
or practicing the game he loved.
between the debating,
he grew oblivious the girl practically floating into the sandlot.
"hey, benny?"
he turned to meet her gentle features and let the wave of ease fall over him.
"hey, y/n."
"is scotty here? he hasn't come home yet."
benny looked around then turned back to her with the shake of his head,
"no, he left earlier."
y/n nodded her head then began to wring her fingers as though she were nervous.
benny smiled at the sight.
"do you want my help finding him?"
"hm? oh, no. don't worry. he's old enough to find his way home."
the silence enveloped them,
leaving benny to stare and admire the girl before him.
the moonlight beamed off of her skin,
and heightened all her best features.
her eyes were deep pools of warmth,
and a sight benny loved.
"do you play?"
benny asked,
breaking the silence and holding his bat out for her.
she laughed and shrugged.
"no, not really."
"come here. i'll show you."
y/n carefully walked to where he stood and took the bat in her hands.
benny positioned himself behind her to guide her hands,
and tried to fight the nerves that ran rampant inside of him.
"alright. put your left hand here."
he shifted her left hand with his and noticed the softness to her skin.
he sank his teeth into his bottom lip in hopes of distracting himself.
"and your right hand...here."
"okay, okay. i've got it."
"now, put your feet like this."
y/n allowed him to show her the correct positioning,
and felt the heat corrupt her body.
she was blushing furiously with a giddy smile.
"now when you swing..."
he brought their connected hands back and showed y/n just how easy it is to swing,
though it was only a desperate attempt to keep himself planted in her embrace.
y/n then turned to look up at him,
meeting him with a wide smile to mirror his.
and before she could process the thoughts in her mind,
she leaned forward and let her lips connect with his.
benny was surprised at first and felt the bat slip from their hands.
y/n backed up and felt her heart thundering deep inside of her chest.
benny looked at his feet then back up to her,
and fell all over again.
her hair laid perfectly framed around her face,
her nervous stance making his heart swell.
he stepped closer and pulled on her waist,
mumbling a quick "come here"
then connected her lips again.
their kiss was full of ardor,
and fervor pulsed through his veins the longer her perfumed scent remained ingrained into his lungs.
her lips were sweetened with flavored chapstick,
and benny found himself feigning for it.
when she pulled back,
the cold air pricked his skin in replacement of her warmth.
their breathing was heavy,
and their hearts were racing wildly with each second.
benny tucked a streak of her hair behind her ear,
then allowed his fingers to trail down her cheek affectionately.
"we should go out sometime."
y/n nodded in agreement with a sheepish smile.
"yeah, we should."
***
scotty felt his insides turning at the sight.
six months of watching his best friend and his sister continuously love on one another with each chance they got.
it was disgusting,
and scotty didn't think he'd ever get used to it.
"come on, man! get used to it! it's been six months!"
ham chuckled at scotty's grimace towards the two who were wrapped in each other's arms.
"it's....unnatural!"
"..yeah. they are pretty gross."
y/n laid a quick kiss to benny's lips then parted ways with him,
leaving him to return to the group.
"ready to play, loverboy?"
benny rolled his eyes,
but not without a grin,
then nodded.
"yeah. let's go."
"what are you doing here?"
scotty asked,
noticing his sister leaning against the fence.
"waiting for benny."
"why?"
"we have plans."
"to do what?"
"to hang out."
"does mom know?"
y/n shook her head and gave the boy a small nudge.
"you're nosey. yes, she knows. now, will you get over this grudge you have?"
scotty walked past her without an answer.
"he's still upset?"
benny asked once he met with y/n,
wrapping an arm around her to hold her tight.
"mhm. he'll get over it soon though."
"yeah, he will."
benny planted a reassuring kiss to the girls temple before asking,
"can we stay in tonight? i've got shin splints from hell."
y/n laughed airily with a nod.
"yeah, we can. i'll help you ice 'em."
"you're the best."
the two reached benny's home,
where they entered full of giggles and smiles.
"i'm gonna shower. you can wait in here."
benny stood to find his way to the restroom,
leaving y/n to lay against his bed.
and as she sat back,
relaxing into his mattress,
the smile against her lips seemed rather permanent.
these six months with benny had been the best months of her life.
he kept her happy,
and there was no greater feeling than being in his arms.
she allowed these thoughts to carry her throughout her waiting,
but was soon interrupted by the soft peck to her forehead.
she turned to meet benny who laid next to her.
"you okay? you look like you're in a daze."
y/n nodded then ran her fingers through his wet hair.
"i'm fine, love. i'm...happy."
the words of confirmation sent benny full of elation.
but before he could reply,
y/n wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close.
their kiss,
usually soft and pure,
was now full of the lust benny didn't know he harbored.
his hands ran down her body,
where he memorized every line, dimple, and beauty mark to her body,
and was full of admiration.
there wasn't a single flaw on y/n's body.
her breathing hitched as his lips connected to her collarbone,
and the sound made his heart skip several beats.
benny looked up at her with ardent eyes,
realizing hers, too, were lit with passion.
her lips brushed his ear before she whispered,
"i'm ready."
he hovered over her and ran a gentle hand down her cheek like he had done so many times before,
then nodded,
"you're sure?"
"mhm. i'm ready."
***
y/n leaned her head to benny's shoulder and yawned,
the weight in her eyelids growing increasingly heavy with each second.
benny kissed the top of her head before speaking,
"you okay?"
"mhm. i'm just really tired."
"take a nap."
y/n shook her head and stood to walk benny out.
"i'm fine. i'm just walking you to the sandlot."
"hey,"
he began and held her shoulders to face him.
"stay here and rest. i'll wake you up when i get back."
"i'm fine, benny."
he tilted his head to get a better look at her.
"you're sure you're okay? you've been acting off since....that night."
y/n rubbed her sleepy eyes then forced them to open again.
she hadn't noticed a shift in her behavior.
"i'm-i'm sorry. i didn't realize."
she pulled him in for a hug,
and allowed her head to rest to his chest.
she inhaled the scent of his cologne,
where it gathered into the depths of her lungs.
"i love you,"
he whispered and kissed the top of her head,
and let the tips of his fingers run down her back.
she then looked up at him to peck his lips.
"i love you, too."
benny headed off to the sandlot and left y/n in her room to rest,
but a sudden thought inside of her mind made it impossible.
the shift in her behavior after that night?
impossible....
y/n felt nauseous at the thought of it.
she rushed to the store,
grabbed what she needed,
and hurried back home before anyone else.
and as she sat in the bathroom,
waiting for the test to finish,
she felt a thick layer of sweat lay itself upon her.
she couldn't find the air to breathe.
it was as though she knew already,
and the test was merely precautionary.
"no, no. you can't be. you can't be...pregnant."
the word was taboo leaving her lips.
fifteen years young with a child?
she was on the edge of tears at the thought.
with shaky hands,
she picked the test up to see it and there confirmed her greatest fears.
"positive."
her life would never be the same now.
scotty entered y/n's room and sat on the edge of her bed,
exhaling loudly.
"fine...i accept it. you and benny."
y/n laid still in the bed,
frozen by her recent discovery.
"y/n?"
"hm?"
"did you hear? i-i accept it."
"okay."
"what's wrong? you're acting weird. benny says he hasn't seen you in over a week."
"i know."
"well...why?"
y/n shoved him away,
forcing him onto the floor of her bedroom.
beneath her bed was a glint that caught his eye.
when he looked a little harder,
he realized just what it was.
with a sharp gasp,
he shot up straight.
"you're pregnant?!"
"shut the hell up!"
y/n warned through clenched teeth,
pulling on scotty's arm.
"scotty, you cannot tell mom right now. promise me."
"but-"
"promise!"
he ripped his arm free of her grasp then stormed out of the house,
forcing y/n to follow close.
she fought through the nausea and the pounding headache to find out just where scotty was going,
and hoped she could talk him into being on her side.
but she didn't expect him to end up at the sandlot,
where benny remained and practiced his throws.
benny stopped once he noticed the two small siblings rushing in,
and felt a wave of relief wash over him at the sight of y/n.
"hey, y/n, where-"
but before he could get his words out,
scotty stomped on his foot and made him wince.
"what the hell, smalls?!"
"you got my sister pregnant?!"
y/n felt her heart sink to the lowest point of her stomach.
"oh, my god. you idiot!"
y/n cried out and yanked scotty back.
benny forgot all about the throbbing pain in his foot once the realization solidified inside of him.
"you're...you're pregnant?"
y/n avoided his eye,
but her cheeks were stained with tears.
"y/n...please talk to me."
she faced him with a nod.
"yeah...i am."
her voice was stripped of its usual animation.
benny's heart raced inside of his chest at the thought of it.
he wrapped y/n closely,
despite her frigidness,
and allowed her to mollify into his touch.
she cried softly,
but soon held him close.
"i'm sorry, benny. i don't know what happened."
"i don't either, y/n."
"so what?! you're gonna break up with her now?!"
benny's attention shot towards scotty,
and he quickly shook his head.
"what? no! y/n, look at me."
he lifted her head up with his index finger beneath her chin.
he cupped her cheek and allowed his thumb to wipe away her tears.
"we're young...and-and it's going to be difficult. but, i'm here through it all. o-okay? i love you, and this'll be the happiest damn baby."
y/n let a faint smile come across her lips.
"yeah?"
"yeah, y/n! we're going to make this work."
"..okay."
benny kissed her for reassurance,
and allowed his lips to say the words he couldn't verbalize.
then, soon, y/n turned to face scotty and giggled,
"looks like you're gonna be an uncle, squirt."
