Or would 2nd base be considered the first base stopping the runner on 3rd as the 2nd base that he is awarded.
If anyone could help explaining this in a clearer way it would be appreciated. Thanks!

From a very Little League point of view.
The runner between 1st and 2nd is awarded two bases from the time of the throw. The two bases are 2nd and 3rd. Since the ball is dead, the runner remains on 3rd (not 1/2 way down the line) until the ball is in play. (Since this is LL, assuming 12U, the runner stays on 3rd until a pitch or attempted play.)
