"So are we.. you should go with us... I'm sure Shelby won't mind... right mom." Trent looked over to his mother.
"Of course she won't... it will be great to get to know some of Shelby's friends." She smiled
"Well great... I'll go grab my stuff." Wade smiled and walked off.
"What was that about?" Jason asked
"You can tell by the way he looks at her he like her... so... he might be able to keep Dean and Shelby apart." Trent said
Audrey shook her head "That's not a good idea."
"Moms right.. Shelby will flip if she think your trying to inter fear in her personal life." Jason said
"Oh... come on it's our job a big brothers to protect her from the likes of Dean Ambrose." Trent said
"Shelby isn't going to see it that way." Trey spoke up.
Trent sighed and shook his head.
Shelby had finished getting showed and changed and walked up to her family "Hey guys." Shelby smiled "We ready to leave?"
"Not just yet... we are waiting on someone?" Trent said
Shelby raised a brow. "Who?"
"Me." Wade smiled putting his arm around her shoulder.
Shelby smiled up at Wade
"We invited him... he was heading to get something to eat.. so we figured so were we so why not get to know each other better." Trent said
Shelby smiled "Well that's a great idea."

-Restaurant-
Wade, Shelby, Trent, Trey, Jason, and Audrey all sat down at a table Wade sat next to Shelby. They ordered their drinks and started talking.
Everyone was talking and sharing stories about Shelby. Shelby shook her head as her mother was telling a story about Shelby when she was in middle school. Shelby's attention went to the door when she saw Dean enter the restaurant her eyes widened when she saw Summer behind him. Everyone noticed and looked over towards the door and saw this. Wade smiled to himself.
Dean scanned the room and noticed Shelby he smiled and then saw Barrett next to her and his smile quickly faded he shook his head and followed the waiter to the table.
Shelby shook her head and tried to put it out of her mind and continued on listening to her mother and smiled when anyone looked at her Shelby wasn't one to show her emotion in front of her family she didn't want her family knowing that she didn't like the fact Dean was there with Summer in fact she wanted to rip Summer hair out of her head.
Summer and Dean ordered their drinks they were talking when Summer noticed Dean kept looking towards the table. Summer sighed a shook her head "Why don't you just go over there." Summer rolled her eyes.
"What are you talking about." Dean raised a brow.
"You can't keep your eyes off her." Summer said
"Oh whatever Summer... I have no interest in her." Dean said lying through his teeth.
Summer knew he was lying she choose to ignore it and decided to choose her battles.
"So... how about we change the subject." Summer said leaning as she traced down his chest with her finger.
"Change it to what?" Dean raised a brow.
"So if your not with her.. does that mean your single?" Summer smirked
Shelby looked over at the scene and shook her head. "Excuse me." Shelby stood up and stormed off to the restroom.
Dean noticed this and shook his head.
"I'll be back." Dean stood up and walked after her.
Wade noticed this and gritted his teeth shaking his head.
Dean grabbed Shelby's arm right before she could enter the ladies restroom. Dean swung her around to face him. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Shelby shook her head and attempted to yank her arm away from him.
"Obviously something is wrong.." Dean said holding on to her arms.
"No... there isn't... go back to Summer... I'm sure she's missing your company." Shelby rolled her eyes.
"So that's what this is about?" Dean shook his head. "It shouldn't matter to you who I'm having diner with we aren't together... besides you look pretty cozy with Barrett." Dean shook his head
"Your right... we aren't together... so how cozy I am with Wade shouldn't matter.. so just go back to Summer..." Shelby said looking to the ground
Dean shook his head "It shouldn't matter to me... but it does Shelby... it does because I still love you okay."
Shelby looked up "You still love me?... after all this time?" Shelby looked at him
"Yes... and I know.. I know you still love me... even if you won't admit it." Dean said
Shelby looked at him he was right she couldn't lie to herself anymore.
"Just say it Shelz.. you know you want to." Dean said
"I do... I still love you." Shelby said and let out a sigh of relief there it was out she didn't have to keep it in any more.
Dean smiled and dropped her hands and placed his hands on either side of her face and pulled her close to him and kissed her. Shelby's arms went around his shoulders. Dean dropped on of his hands from her face and wrapped his around her waist to pull her closer to him.
"Shelby."
Both dropped their hands and stepped back from each other when they heard her mothers voice.
"Mom." Shelby said straighten out her clothing
"What is going on?" Audrey put her hands on her hips.
"Nothing mom... let's go.." Shelby said pushing her mother away from Dean. Shelby turned to Dean for a second and mouthed We Will Talk Later . Then she walked away with her mother.
Dean sighed and shook his head he thought he made some kid of head way with her now he wasn't so sure but at least he knew for sure now she still loved him.
