Over the next few weeks, Spinelli spent a lot of time with TJ and talking to PA on the phone. Both of them promised to help her through everything and were on call whenever Spinelli broke down or had another nightmare. By the time Spinelli's sixteenth birthday rolled around, it had been about a month and a half since the attack. However, something was about to happen that would alter Spinelli's life and cause her to break down once again.
Spinelli's birthday had started out fine; her mother cooked her pancakes for breakfast, and given her some of her gifts, including the car Spinelli had her eye on at the used car lot and made her a special Italian dinner. TJ had come over that night, and the two of them spent a quiet evening watching movies, eating and discussing Spinelli's Sweet Sixteen party, which was the next day.
"So who's coming tomorrow?" TJ asked, taking a bite of the cake Spinelli's mom made.
"Um, the Diggers, Guru Kid, Upside Down Girl, Hustler Kid, Library Kid, my family and some others. I can't really remember the rest right now," Spinelli said tiredly. She leaned on TJ, closing her eyes as she listened to his heart beating. She felt so safe with him, even though it was difficult for her to get too close to men physically. Talking to them was fine, but she panicked if they touched her or approached her without warning. She was lucky to have such good friends that understood her fears and respected her wishes. Spinelli felt TJ nervously put his arms around her, almost as if he were afraid she was going to break down again.
"Teej, it's ok, I trust you, I know you aren't going to hurt me." Spinelli looked up and smiled at her friend.
"I know you trust me, I just don't want to make you feel uncomfortable." TJ said seriously. "The last thing I want is for you to get hurt, and I will try and do anything in my power to protect you, which is why I gave you that phone for your birthday, so you can always be in contact with me. I am just a direct connect away."
Spinelli fingered the Nextel TJ had given her earlier that day. With the help of their parents, he saved up enough money so that they could each have one and so they were able to contact each other at any time by the mere touch of a button. (A/N: it is actually three buttons, but you get my point) Spinelli was so happy that TJ cared enough about her to do something like that and that he wanted to be there for her as much as possible. She smiled at him again and turned on the TV. "Hey, Back to the Future marathon!" she cried. "You feel like watching?"
"Sure, you're the birthday girl." TJ said as they both settled back to watch. They were just getting to the part where George punches Biff at the dance when they heard the doorbell ring.
"Ugh, who the hell could that be? Nobody is supposed to come until tomorrow!" Spinelli sighed, leaning into the couch.
"Maybe it's the Birthday Fairy," TJ teased as he saw Spinelli's beautiful smile appear.
"Birthday fairy?" she asked. "You mean the Fab Five decided to come visit me on my birthday and make over my best friend? What a gift!" Spinelli laughed as TJ pretended to hold her in a headlock.
"There is nothing wrong with how I look!" TJ yelled, pretending to act hurt, but was laughing too hard. At that moment, they looked up and noticed Flo Spinelli shaking her head at them.
"Fine, you two, don't get up. I'll get the door." She smiled at the two as she walked over to the front door. "Those two are so cute," she thought, her maternal instinct telling her that those two would one day be married. She opened the door and revealed two state troopers.
"Um, can I help you?" she asked, wondering why the police were bothering them at this hour of the day.
"Is this the Spinelli residence?" One of the cops, who's head was covered with thick black hair asked.
"Um, yes, is there a problem, sir?" Flo asked, confused as to what the cops wanted and why.
The other cop, a sort muscular Latino man, stuck out his hand. "My name is Travis Murillo, and this is my partner, Mike Hannity. We are here to see a young lady by the name of Ashley Spinelli, regarding the case she has against a Mr. Robert Johnson. We were also told that her friend Theodore J. Detweiler could be found here."
"Um, yes, they are both here, we are celebrating Ashley's birthday, what is so important that you had to come now?" Flo asked, annoyed that the cops were about to ruin her daughter's birthday with more torture about that terrible night.
"Well, Mrs. Spinelli, we need to take Miss Spinelli and Mr. Detweiler downtown for some questioning. We have received some new and important evidence in this case and need to speak to the both of them right away." Officer Murillo looked grim as he spoke. "This evidence can have a great impact on the pending case against Mr. Johnson."
A/N: What will happen now? What did they find? How will it affect TJ and Spinelli? Find out next time in this story. Please r/r, but if you can't say something nice, don't say it at all! Happy reading, and please remember to think of a title for this miniseries. Details are in chapter six! Thank you! I know this was a lot of fluff, but I felt as if the mood needed to be lightened a little bit.
Spoilers:
The evidence causes two people to be put on trial.
The evidence causes Spinelli to break down once again.
PA will help Spinelli during a breakdown, and will play an important role during the trial.
TJ is in hot water for something he did to protect Spinelli.
Vince and the Ashleys spread more rumors.
