-"Brooke, we need to talk" He stated, making me more confused.

-"Talk about what? What happend?" I questioned, getting closer to him.

-"oh, nothing you need to worry about, it's just... did you by any chance see Dean today?" He asked, making me instantly think about our little meet before, in 'catch the flag'.

-"Yeah, I saw him earlier today, why?" I asked back, and that rock serious face was still glued to his face. He held his hand and scratched the back of his neck. Was he nervous about something? "what's wrong?"

-"It's nothing serious, yet. He's just been caught in the security cameras stealing something from Federico's office" Wow, that was unexpected.

-"What?!"

-"Well he didn't steal, he just logged into his computer and we don't know what he managed to do yet"

-"Oh" I was very confused right now. I was gonna say something else but he cut me off.

-"Anyways, thanks" He said, walking away from me.

Uh, that was a bit weird. I mean, why would Dean do that? because he's a dick. He doesn't stop joking around. His jokes never make me laugh, they just dissapoint me.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Wisteria, Conifers and Hardwoods were now in a boating competition. We were all getting ready to start. I got on the boat and sat next to Emily, when she gave me a thick indigo lifejacket. I put it on and picked up a row.

Some minutes after preparing for the competition to start, I heard a strong air horn alarming me that we had to start rowing.

I pushed and pulled as hard as I could. I saw the hardwood boat getting closer to ours, until it was just some meters away. Dean was in my side, looking at me, and trying harder to push and pull the row. I looked at him as I frowned, trying harder. He kept stealing glances at me, he kept frowning too.

As the competitive dumbass I am, I stood up for support and started rowing faster, making our boat get in first place one again. I looked back at Dean and noticed he stood up too, looking at me with a mix of anger, tiredness, and unpatience. I kept rowing faster and faster, stronger. I had to win him. I mean- the team.

-"Tired yet?" I heard him shout from the other side. I quickly looked at him and noticed he was smirking. I rolled my eyes and looked back to the water, making me put even more strength. Dean splashed on me a lot of thick heavy water, making me stop for a moment. But I quickly stood up and looked at him.

-"You wish" I answered, sitting back down again and trying harder, still looking at him defiantly. He looked back at the front and

I looked back at Emily and noticed she was smirking at me.

-"What?" I think I sound pretty rude there.

-"nothing, just the looks he gives you... I don't know, you both seem hella competitive."

I giggled for a bit before looking back at Dean, who had sat back down again and continued rowing. Still stealing some glances at me.

-"COME ON GUYS! WE CAN WIN HARDWOOD!" I heard someone in our boat say, and afterwards, I heard a lot of 'yeah!'s' coming down.

-"WE PASS THIS FORESTY-ZONE AND THEN WE ARE FINISHED!" I heard someone from the other boat shout to their team.

I looked back at Dean and I started rowing faster, until we finally got out of the foresty-zone and I saw a monitor with a flag some meters away. I rowed with all my full strengh until we finally made it to the finish line, winning hardwood.

I sighed in relief as I sat back from my seat in the boat, panting. My arms were weak right about now and I could imagine my muscle soreness for tomorrow. I got out from my boat, standing in the deck, watching the people from the other boats leave. I couldn't help my eyes wonder around hardwood boat. Everyone had already left, including Dean.

---------------------------------------------------------

Half an hour later we were all sat down in a picnic table, outside the cafeteria. Jonah, Ben, Emily, Abby and Scarlett were sat down in the same table as me. They all started talking about random stuff so I decided to enter the cafeteria and pick up some food. I got in the line as I grabbed a tray, a fork, a knife and some napkins.

I checked out the food there and it actually looked chewable today. There was pasta and some spanish omelette. I took some portions of omelette and I was about to pick up the utensil to get some pasta when I noticed someone already ahead of me.

-"Excuse me, I was going to get the pasta" I defended. The guy turned around and I immediately noticed it was Dean. He was looking at me as if my words bored him.

-"I don't care" He rudely stated. Okay Brooke, time to get your jelousy skills in action, to see if he reacts.

-"hey um, before you go, have you seen Lucas?" I said, trying my best to look worried. I noticed he clenched his jaw very hard by the saying of his brother's name. I don't know why, but it felt good to piss him off. I feel more... wanted. In a way.

-"yeah, he's sat at your table" He answered, looking over the window at our table, annoyed. He then left me there standing in the middle of the cafeteria. I turned back to get the pasta, and a smile creeped in my lips by his jelousy.

I feel a little embarrased that Lucas had sat at my table and I just acted dumb as if I didn't know. Well, I didn't so, I'm not that dumb.

I got back to the table and noticed they were all laughing about something. I got closer and sat down, smiling.

-"What are you guys laughing about?" I was still trying to smile as best as possible. But I was confused, so, can you blame me?

-"Look" Jonah said, showing me a poster of a... meme?

"Year 73, I still hold on to my condoms. But not for much longer. I need to fuck you, Brooke

Jaredation"

Wait, is that the note I found in the woods? The first morning I left for my morning run. But, the person who created this poster, changed the words, to make it look even weirder. Why would they put my name there? God, I feel so embarrased right now. Why would someone do something like that? And how did they find the note? I left it in the bathroom, under the sink.

Wait a second...

-------------------------------------------------------
*Flashback from Deans P.O.V*

-"What is going on?" I heard a delicate voice coming from outside of the bathroom, Liv was back. Great.

I have to hurry up before she comes here. I look through all the drawrers and cabinets, looking for something. SOMETHING. For now I can't find anything that would put Liv in her embarrasment. Wait a second. I look under the sink and noticed a little note under it. I read it and immediately thought, 'why would she have this under her sink?" Uh okay, weird.

I take the note and hurry out of the bathroom, picking up the box. I then put the note in my back pocket. I look up and noticed Liv staring at me. Oh no, I hope she didn't notice what was in my hand.

Why am I doing this you ask? You'll see when the time's right.
