~a few days later~

I wake up and look at the time. 8am. Shit. I'm late. I rush out of bed and put on whatever clothes were closest. I leave my house and run to the sandlot. They are all sitting in the dugout drinking coke. I'm sweating like crazy. It's so hot.

"Why aren't you guys playing?" I ask.

"We are waiting for squints and yeah-yeah." Ham says before taking a sip of his drink.

"What are they doing?"

"Getting a ball" says kenny.

I'm about to say something but I can hear two boys complaining behind me. I turn around to see yeah-yeah dragging squints across the sandlot.

"Where you guys been?We've been waiting here forever already." Complains benny.

"Aw. Squints was pervin' a dish." Says yeah-yeah, handing Benny the ball.

"Shut up. I wasn't." Answers squints.

"Yeah,yeah,you were" yeah-yeah says pointing at squints.

"You're tounge was hanging out of your head, and you was swoonin' "

"Oh Wendy Peffercorn my darling lover girl" yeah-yeah says re-enacting squints.

Everyone laughs.

"I said shut up. I've got a lot of things on my mind." Squints says sitting down.

Ham turns to Benny.

"This pop isn't working benny.
Im baking like a toasted cheeser! It's so hot here!"

"It's 150 degrees out there. You can't play baseball." Squints says.

"You have to call it for the day"

"You gotta listen to him Benny" Bertram says.

"Vote then" benny insists.

"Anyone who wants to be a cant-hack-it panty waste who wears there mamas bra, raise your hand."

Everyone raises their hand apart from Benny.

"Cmon Benny, it's too hot to play baseball today." I say to him.

"Fine,fine,fine! Be like that" Says Benny.

"So what are we gonna do"

All the boys look at each other.

"Scam pool honeys!" They all say in unison.
