Ok! No authors note last time…sorry bout that! I still really would love your reviews!

"Alright then Carlos, you need to fill this out." Danielle said, handing Carlos a questionnaire.

"Uh, is there a math section and if so can I have Logan help?" He asked anxiously, and Danielle swiftly hit him on top of his head.

"AND you have to give her something nice, make her laugh, and compliment her on something other then her eyes, her face, anything about her body or outfit or her sense of humor."

"Uh…" Carlos was slowly losing his confidence.

"AND you have to pass every one of our tests." Rosie finished. Carlos looked scared and ran off muttering something about the mall. "I think my work here is done." Rosie said gracefully, heading out to the pool. Leaving Kendall and Danielle. Alone. Together.

"Is this really fair? Or necessary?" Kendall asked and Danielle just gave him a look.

"It is SO necessary."

"Look, Carlos is a really nice guy; he's not like a player or anything-"

"PSSH! You're a guy! You wouldn't know a player if he was living in your house! You'd just think he was awesome." She spat and Kendall quickly backed away from her. She crossed her arms and stared at the ground. "Boys are just stupid, narcissistic jerk offs that don't really care about girls. The just want to see how many of them they can get with." Kendall was silent. I mean really, how do you respond to that?

"I'm not like that." He said stopping her. She glared.

"You say that now. But anyway, Mel's had some crappy boyfriends and I'm not going to let some idiot hurt her!" Kendall nodded understanding a bit more now. He also understood something about Danielle he hadn't realized till now.

"You really mother the girls you know that?" He told her.

"I do NOT!" She screeched at him. Rosie passed her eating an ice cream cone. "Rosie, the dairy isn't good for your voice."

"But-"

"And you haven't had lunch yet." Rosie grumbled and threw it out. Kendall looked at Danielle with his eyebrows raised.

"Ok, so maybe I do a little! But it's only because I love them." She said defensively, and Kendall raised his funny looking eyebrows higher. "Like sisters you weirdo." She rolled her eyes and Kendall just laughed; he knew what she had meant but he just wanted to mess with her.

"Whatever just take it easy on Carlos. He really likes her."

"Yeah sure." Kendall silently prayed for Carlos.

"Ok, James you need to help me." Carlos told his friend that he had dragged to the mall with him. "What do you get a girl?"

"A picture of yourself." Carlos sighed. James had had more girlfriends then any of them, but he was starting to second guess bringing him along.

"DUDE!"

"Sorry, sorry! Um flowers! Girls like flowers!" James told him. Carlos ran into a floral shop (Knocking over some vases) and returned with a bouquet of roses.

"Are roses ok? Or are they too formal? Should I have gotten pink? Melissa likes pink!" James put his hand over Carlos's mouth.

"All girls like red roses. You have got to stop freaking out."

"I know, I know, but I really like Melissa and I really, really want to go out with her, and I can't unless Danielle and Rosie like me!"

"Hey, you listen to me and you'll being going out with her in no time." But James wasn't so sure. He had been doubting his awesomeness ever since Darcy had ruined his record of always getting the girl. Jo didn't count because he was sick and she was a bitch (A/N yeah…yeah). But he still wondered why she didn't like him

"Why doesn't Darcy like me?" He asked Carlos. Carlos shrugged in disinterest before he looked down at his shirt and frowned.

"Do I need something new to wear?" James took one look at his outfit and his metro sexual side took over as he dragged Carlos into Abercrombie

"I asked Darcy out, well I got Katie too do it for me, and then Darcy was just all 'I'm going to jump into the pool' and then when I asked Danielle she was all 'She'd date a boy with a brain'! So basically, I need to appear smart." James babbled as Carlos bought a new outfit. Complete with a stunning man necklace.

"Good luck with that." Carlos said.

"Hey, I helped you!" Carlos sighed. James had a point.

"Why don't you go to Logan for help? Seriously, you come to me for smarts?" Carlos grabbed his new outfit and ran out of the store looking for the next thing on his list.

"Let's see what lover boy can do." Rosie said as she and Danielle sat down. Carlos took a deep breath and hid the flowers behind his back. He walked up to Melissa who was talking with Camille and tapped her on the shoulder.

"Hi Melissa."

"Hi Carlos!"

"I'm really excited our date tomorrow so I decided to get you something." He revealed the bouquet.

"Oh, Carlos that's-ACHOO!" Melissa began to sneeze violently. Carlos looked really confused.

"Are you ok-?" Melissa batted away the flowers.

"I'm ACHOO! Allergic-Achoo! Achoo! To Roses!" She said covering her nose and running away. Carlos threw out the flowers and sat sadly on a pool chair.

"Strike one." Danielle said happily. Rosie high-fived her, and Kendall and Logan groaned from where they were watching the scene.

"This is not going well." Kendall said.

"Ya think?" Logan deadpanned. Logan and Kendall looked at each other worriedly. How the heck were they going to make this work?

"Maybe you should talk to Danielle." Logan suggested. Kendall looked at him like he sprouted a second head.

"Or I could just jump in to a den of hungry lions, take a dip in a pool filled with sharks, or maybe I should have picnic with some-"

"Ok, ok! I'll go talk to them!" Logan said rolling his eyes. "Drama queen." He muttered. He walked up to the girls and tapped Rosie on the shoulder. She did a perfect shampoo commercial head turn as she spun around to face him.

"Yes?" She asked sweetly.

"Uh…" Logan had forgotten what he was going to say. Wow she was hot….

"Something you want to say?" She asked. Logan put his finger in the air-then ran like hell.

"Boys are weird." Rosie told Danielle. Danielle nodded in agreement.

"Ok, smart. Smart. How do I appear smart?" James asked himself. For once his reflection didn't answer, Katie did.

"Ten bucks and I can make you seem smart." She told him. He raised an eyebrow. Was she trying to trick him again?

"Fifteen bucks." He said. Katie face palmed- this was going to be so much more work then fifteen dollars.

"Alright, read this, and wear these." Katie tossed him a giant College Physics book and a pair of glasses.

"Glasses? Seriously?" James raised a perfectly shaped eyebrow at her.

"Do what I tell you! Now Darcy's going to be in the lobby, so go down there and impress her!" She spun him around and pushed him out the door.

"So cramping my style." He muttered as he walked out. He spotted Darcy, in the lobby like Katie had said. How did she know that? Weird.

"Um, how are you this afternoon, Darcy?" He said, trying to sound sophisticated. She looked at him strangely.

"Um fine…l-look about that uh, er, uh…da-date."

"Ah yes the…" He flipped open the book. "Rendezvous occasion. I am…most exuberant for it."

"…What?" James freaked out and pointed behind her.

"CROCODILE!" She turned then looked back. Where did he go?

Ah here we are a brand new chapter! Will Melissa and Carlos ever go out? Will Darcy and James have an actual conversation together? Will I ever update? PROBABLY!
