A/N: Here we are with another chapter-I got the idea for this one while
Christmas shopping today,---don't ask-since it has nothing to do with the
events of this chapter, but somehow I got
Inspired by watching nasty people pushing others in line. OK, now that we all know how crazy I am.here is a note for my adoring readers:
Goofy Monkey Child; Great minds think alike! We have the same title for the fan fic, but most likely different ideas. Can't wait to read yours-and I'm glad you like mine. As for the Spinelli attempted rape thing, I honestly had no idea people wrote fics like that, except in one, which I read after I wrote this---in the end and in the sequels she will get her break, s to speak-I promise.
LilVickiRyan: My biggest reviewer yet!! Woohoo. I plan on using one of your ideas, so if you want to give me info, you can be in my sequel. Yes, the accident was just a dream, btw. Matt is Matthew Lawrence, Joey and Andy's brother. I'm thrilled you like my story! Yours is awesome too!
Everyone else who reviewed-thank you-you rock!!!
BTW-the Lawrence brother reference was in honor of the fact that Andy Lawrence played the voice of TJ from season 2 on.
Anyway, now that I bugged you all with a long A/N, here is another chapter of One Last Chance.
Spinelli woke up the next morning, surprised TJ was there with her. She struggled to rememeber how he got there, and then remembered her dream. She shuttered, glad that TJ was alive and an important part of her life. As she moved, she saw TJ waking up as well.
"Morning, Spin.wait how did I get here? We didn't, you know, did we?" He asked, hoping that he hadn't unintentionally pushed her into something she wasn't ready for.
"No, no, no," Spinelli blushed, surprised he would even think that. He was a guy, after all, but still.."You came over because I had a bad dream and then a breakdown, remember? We must have fallen asleep."
"Oh right, now I remember." He got up and looked at her for a second. Even in pajamas and messed up hair, she still looked beautiful. He thought about the previous night, when she broke down. It was rare that he saw her cry. But something else was bothering him. Was it her imagination, or did she say she loved him last night? "Nah," he thought, I must have been dreaming.
Spinelli looked at him and laughed. "This reminds me of our campouts when we were little. Remember how we used to scare Gretchen with the story of how the Chainsaw murderer was after her?" She smiled at the memory, even though her mind was on the night before, wondering if TJ had actually said he loved her, or if it was another dream. "Probably a dream," she thought. "No need to bring it up now and mess things up."
"And then the next morning your mom would make us those awesome pancakes, and we'd eat outside, pretending to be tough survivors of the world?" TJ grinned. "Like any real survivor would find pancakes in the woods." At that, the two began laughing hysterically.
After about five minutes, the two calmed down and stared at each other. There was a tense moment of silence, and it took all of TJ's willpower not to kiss her at that moment. "Don't scare her," he thought.
Spinelli looked at the clock. "Wow 10:30, you want to go to the 2:00 show, or do you want to just watch bad eighties movies?"
TJ thought for a moment. "As much as he loved being with her in public, he thought that some alone time might be good for the two of them. "Why don't I pick you up and we can decide from there?"
"Um, how about I meet you? I need to, um, do something before hand." Spinelli stuttered. After the whole I love you thing, she needed to talk to PA desperately.
"Well, what do you need? We can go on the way," TJ offered.
"Ehhh, um, I need to go get, um," Spinelli looked around desperately, looking for a believable excuse. She spotted a Tampax coupon on the table and said "Girl stuff. I need some girl stuff," She lied, hoping he'd believe her and she would be home free.
" Spin, we've shopped for that stuff together before. It doesn't bother me. After all, I do live with my mom and sister."
"Teej, last time you went shopping with me for that stuff, you tripped over a box, knocked over a condom display and broke a whole shelf of KY jelly, which I slipped in. I had to go home and explain to my parents why I was covered in it, and had condoms stuck to me."
(A/N-sorry if that was offensive to anyone, but I got the idea from a friend who works at a pharmacy) "They didn't exactly believe me when I told her what happened. They thought I was working as a sexy wrestler or something." Spinelli laughed at the thought, hoping that story would make him agree to her plan.
"Oh, man that was too funny. And remember running into Prickly on the way home? Both of us covered in that stuff, oh my gosh, you just had to pull me down with you, didn't you?"
"Well yeah, I wasn't walking home alone like that."
TJ smiled. "Only you, Spin. Anyway, I will let you go shop, and you can stop by my house around one. That ok?"
"Sounds fine. See you at one!" She walked him to the door and as soon as he was out of the driveway, she ran to the phone and dialed PA's number. After several rings, she answered.
"PA, its Spin. I think TJ said he loved me last night, but I was in a sleep mode, so it might have been a dream. Do I bring it up, should I let it go? What do I do?" Spinelli babbled, hoping PA had some answers.
"Well, did you say anything back?"
"Yeah, when he was sleeping, I whispered that I loved him, but I know he didn't hear it. So now I'm more confused than ever."
"Well, see if he says anything, and if not, try to find a way to tell him, before you both leave for college and its too late."
" Yeah, I mean, we're both going to NYU, but still, he might meet someone."
"Just remember, you never know when it will be too late. Make sure you tell him soon hun. Now I need to meet Milo for wedding plans. You're visiting next week for a dress fitting right?" Their special sisterhood was the reason Spinelli was a bridesmaid at the wedding. TJ was an usher, since he remained close with both PA and Milo throughout the years.
"Yes, TJ is visiting Milo for a tux fitting too." The girls said their goodbyes and hung up.
After getting off the phone, Spinelli showered, dressed, and put on makeup, making sure she looked her best for TJ. She knew she had to tell him, but if she only had the courage. She grabbed her bag and cell phone, took her keys from the hook and ran out the door. She figured she would meet TJ early so they could talk.
But Spinelli never made it past her doorstep. As she walked out the door, a gunshot was heard from the distance, the bullet landing directly into Spinelli's stomach. She collapsed on the stairs, unaware of the frantic 911 phone call, the ambulance surrounding her, taking her to the hospital, the cops looking for evidence, or the TV crews surrounding her house, reporting that the town had never seen such a horrific event in over 50 years. The last thing on her mind as the bullet penetrated her skin was that she might now never have a chance to tell TJ she loved him.
A/N: I know some stuff was a bit odd, but the whole pharmacy incident was something a friend told me about, combined with a scene from Old School. Anyway, how is TJ going to react when he finds out Spinelli is in danger? Is it too late for this couple to come together? Most important, who shot Spinelli? (I feel like this is Dallas or AMC, with that line lol) Anyone who can guess who did it can review and the first one to guess correctly will be in the sequel. R/R, but remember the golden rule-if you can't say something nice, don't say it at all.
