AJ comes back from rehab a new person, Rochelle gets to see the changes in him.

9/4/01

"AJ, I missed you so much." As Rochelle ran and gave me a huge hug. "I know. I missed you too. Do you love me as a friend or more?" I asked her. "Of chorse, I love you more than a friend. I like to see that smile of yours glow." Rochelle told me.

"You guys could light a whole city, just by smileing" Rochelle told me. "But I don't want a realationship right now, Rochelle, we should wait." I told her, she cried. Then I saw Howie look like a huge piece of empathy and ephiphany. Damn he got the same expression David Borenaz had on TV in rehab when he saved Cordielia from those eye making baby monsters in the TV show, "Angel".

Gotta love Joss Whedon. But still, I wasn't ready and I was crying. I was wondering what she had just told Kevin, Howie, and our manager to make them look at me like that and make "824" be all scared of everyone all of a sudden, even me.
