Meet Aaron

"Dude, you'll never guess what we just heard!" called Jon. I turned around.

"Now you're gossiping like a girl?" I asked, tossing him the football I was holding. Down the hall in the high school building, I rolled my eyes as I watched the new kid genius, Chloe, slam her locker shut and walk down to Glee Club.

Glee Club.

"Chloe Hudson likes you."

I turned around.

"What?"

"Yeah, dude, she's totally into you."

"Congrats, man," my friend Robert, also in Glee, said. "She's not too bad looking."

"But she's so . . ." I ran off.

"Oh, come on, man, you'd be a cute couple, and she's Finn's sister! And she's tight with Puck."

"So? She's still a nerd," Jon put in, "Tough luck." And he walked away.

"The way to find out if she's really into you is this: sing something that girls like. Also, talk to her and see if she blushes."

"Okay then . . ."
