A/N: Hello everyone. Welcome to my second Recess story. These are a collection of one-shots I made symbolizing over the years the love that TJ and Spinelli have for each other. The chapters are named after songs that I know and listen to (see if you can guess them!) and I really hope you all enjoy what I've written. Thanks guys and rock on!

Chapter 1. Thunderstruck

Friday, April 17th 2004: 4th Grade...

"Yuck! Puke city!"

"Quick! Someone get me some mouth wash!"

A wave of relief went through every kid who was watching this heart-stopping experiment. It wasn't true, none of it had been true. Butch was a liar. Kindergarteners and sixth graders alike all breathed a heavy sigh of ease. The crowd began to disperse and everyone went back to their regular activities.

TJ and Spinelli however, had butterflies going through their stomachs. What the other one was thinking, they did not know but they both knew one thing: they had liked it. But they couldn't let everyone else know that, the idea was unthinkable. They would be shunned by everyone they knew and tortured forever, so acting upon instinct they did the only practical thing a kid could do. Pull a fake, and be disgusted.

(Because you've been...Thunderstruck!)

As everyone cleared away the rest of the group stayed together to laugh away the misunderstanding.

"One thing's clear here" said TJ in a serious tone. "There's no way we're ever gonna want to kiss you girls."

"Yeah! And we aren't gonna want to kiss you guys neither" shot back Spinelli jabbing her finger at TJ and the boys, who all seemed taken aback. But not a second later they were all laughing together at the hilariousness of the situation.

In the back of her mind however, Spinelli felt confused. This was so wrong, she couldn't have feelings for TJ. He was her best friend! It couldn't be! She dismissed it with all the might she could muster and tried to forget. But it would never leave her, never again.

TJ was a little less in tune with his emotions. But he knew as soon as he had pressed his lips to Spinelli's something had changed within him forever. But TJ Detweiler was too young to know what any of this meant, so he buried it deep within his soul. But like his best friend, it would not leave him, only get stronger as the inevitable years were to pass by.

The bell rang.

"C'mon guys" said Vince. "Let's get back before Ms. Grotke gives us all tardies."

And that was the end of that…..for now.

The end of the first chapter with more coming. Remember to read and review!~Punkrocka23
