Dean took Renee's helpful words under consideration. Now that he knows that AJ does in fact have a crush on him, he can start thinking of ideas to wow AJ and make her admit she likes him.

But the question was, how? How do you get a girl to share her feelings with you? There was one person Dean knew that could help him with this.

"John! John! John!" Dean yelled! running into the guys locker rooms. "I need your help."

John Cena looked at Dean and shook his head, while putting on his football gear, "You will get my help once you learn how to be on time for practice."

"This is an emergency! If you know a girl likes you and she acts like she doesn't, what do you do?"

John chuckled at his naive teammate, "Ambrose, that's an easy one. All you have to do is make her food."

Dean smacked his face, "I knew I shouldn't have put this much faith in you."

"Trust me it works. That's how I got Nikki to go out with me. Like, what would you do if a chick made you your favorite food and then asked you out?"

"I'd say yes in a heart beat."

"Bingo. Glad I can help." John patted Dean on the back.

"Thanks man! I owe you big time!" Dean yelled, running out of the locker room.

"Wait, aren't you gonna stay for practice? Aaaand he's gone."

-Food Science-

AJ was sitting at one of the tables in the kitchen listening to her food science teacher, Mr.Ryback, give instructions.

"Alright class, everybody get into groups of 5." he instructed. "Today we are going to be baking peanut butter cookies."

AJ raised her hand, "Mr.Ryback. I am extremely allergic to peanuts and whenever I come in contact with them I get a rash and my throat starts to swell."

"Goodness, I sertainly don't want that happening to you. You can go to the library until class is over okay?"

"Sounds good." AJ grabbed her backpack and was about to leave until Renee stuck her foot out, tripping her. AJ glared at her. Stay calm AJ. You don't need to get suspended. "Acting like a bitter wench isn't going to make Dean like you again." she smiled widely then skipped away.

-After School-

Dean was in the library reading a bunch of cook books trying to get an idea on what he should bake for AJ.
He groaned, when he saw how complexed all the receipts were.

"Hey Dean." Renee greated, placing her bags on the table. "Why are you reading cook books?"

Dean shut the book and placed it on the stack of other cook books he went through, "I'm going to bake AJ something."

He never baked anything for me. "I thought you didn't know how to bake. None the less, work an oven."

"I don't, but Imma try."

"Why don't you just get your personal chef to make it for you?"

"Can't." He flipped through more pages in another book, "My mom fired her." Dean slammed the book shut. "I don't even know what AJ's favorite food is."

Renee grinned evily, recalling what AJ had said in their food class. "AJ loves anything with peanuts in it. So you should make her peanut butter cookies or something like that."

"Damn, I can't bake peanut butter cookies. I'm allergic to peanuts. Just the smell of it makes me nauseous."

Crap, the smell is pretty strong and AJ would know. C'mon Renee think. "How about I bake them for you and you can give it to AJ?"

"You'd do that for me?"

She smiled, "Of course. What are friends for?" She gritted her teeth a little bit on the word friends.

AJ was waiting at the front of the school for Matt to pick her up. To be honest, not having her brothers around felt like an extra weight lifted from her shoulders. She felt...free in a way.

Matt pulled up and AJ got in the truck, "How was school?" He asked.

"Boring. Everybody at this school is annoying and Dean's ex-girlfriend has it out of me."

"I can't help you with that one cuz I don't hit girls. But you can."

"I'm not going to fight her. I have a reputation to hold. How was Uncle Hunter's boot camp?"

"Terrible. He made us clean the garage, mowe the front and back yard, and for some reason mop the roof."

"He's aware it's 100°, right?"

"He doesn't care. When we were done Zacky and Jimmy jumped in the pool then he told them to clean it."

"Remind me to not get in trouble."

"Was that Ambrose guy bothering you today?"

"Nah, surprisingly. But he will soon. I know it."

Matt shook his head, "One more week and the boys and I will be back."

Damn, it was kinda nice being on my own for this short while. "Hurray."
