My favorite stories that I co-wrote

a. That is one of my favorite stories that I co-wrote with John.

Can't this sentence mean two things?

1. That is one of my favorite stories. I co-wrote it with John. (Maybe it was the only story that I co-wrote with John)
2. I co-wrote some of my favorite stories with John. That is one of them.

Many thanks.
