The Recess gang was walking down the street together. They were talking about their plans on what to do now that they were out of school for the weekend. Spinelli was about to say something, but her phone went off and she was given a text. She looked slightly annoyed once she saw who it was from and what it had to say.
"You okay, Spinelli?" Gretchen asked.
"Fine..." Spinelli scoffed. "It's just that Twister kid, he wants to meet me in the library for something."
"Twister in the library?" Vince nearly scoffed.
"I have to agree, he's not exactly the bookish type." Gretchen added.
"I know, right?" Spinelli rolled her eyes.
"What else does it say?" TJ asked.
"Just to meet him in the library after school..." Spinelli shrugged.
"You're not gonna go, are you?" Gus asked.
"Perhaps Twister is feeling tormented because he is hiding his true feelings for Spinelli and wants to admit it so he won't feel tortured any longer, it's like a fairy tale or a work of Shakespeare." Mikey spoke like one of his infamous poems.
The others glanced at him.
"Hey, it could happen..." Mikey shrugged.
"We should go with you." TJ offered.
"Nah, I got this, Teej," Spinelli insisted. "I'll go see him and just get it over with... It better be important or else I'm gonna pulverize him."
"So, you're gonna see this guy?" Gus asked. "He's not gonna hurt you, is he?"
"Are you forgetting who you're talkin' to?" Spinelli narrowed her eyes back at him. She then walked further away from her friends and took the local bus to drop her off at the library. "I'll be there, see you in about twenty minutes." she said, texting Twister back before going to sit down.
"I wonder what that Twister boy wants with Spinelli." Gretchen spoke up.
"Ah, probably needs help with his homework or somethin'," Vince shrugged. "Come on, guys, let's shoot some hoops!"
TJ didn't like the idea of Spinelli being alone with Twister. It made him feel angry for some reason, but he didn't say anything. It was clear that something was wrong with him though.
