******************************************************************************

A girl with shoulder length blond hair, green eyes, and a tee shirt and baggy jeans on walked into the classroom. She stood by the teacher while she introduced her.

"Class, this is Lyndsay Coleman. Why don't you tell the class a little about yourself," the teacher said in his monotone voice.

"Name's Lyndsay. I'm bad news so if ya know what's good for ya and stay away from me then no one gets hurt. Get the picture? Good," Lyndsay said in a dangerous voice. The teacher told her to go find an empty seat. The only empty seat was next to Spinelli. Spinelli felt chills go down her back and watched Lyndsay out of the corner of her eye the reest of the class. When the bell rang Spinelli quickly walked outside.

"So you're still scared of me huh?" came a voice from behind Spinelli that made her jump.

"Scared? Me? I don't know what the heck you're talking about Lyndsay," Spinelli said facing Lyndsay.

"Oh I think you do," Lyndsay replied smirking.

"Whatever. Leave me alone. No one is to ever know about what happened when we were three, got it?" Spinelli asked in a threatening voice.

"Sure whatever you say," Lyndsay replied. Just then TJ walked outside.

"Hey girls. What's up?" he asked.

"Oh. I was just leaving. See you later Spinnie," Lyndsay said walking away with an evil grin on her face.

"What was that about?" TJ asked. He knew she would originally have beat up anyone that called her Spinnie... or anything but Spinelli for that matter.

"N-nothing," Spinelli replied.

"Spin, last time you said it was nothing we ended up in court. Come on. Remember you said from now on you would tell me your problems," TJ said.

"This isn't a problem. I gotta go Teej. See you tomorrow," Spinelli replied walking away quickly. TJ walked home wondering what Spinelli could be keeping from him this time.

~*~TJ'S HOUSE~*~

TJ was laying on his bed thinking of Spinelli. The way her hair fell down her back. The way her eyes sparkled all the time. Her beautiful smile he would do anything to see. And everything else about her. Then he remembered that she was obviously going through something she felt she had to keep a secret.

"Well whatever it is I'm going to find out," TJ said under his breath. He stood up and called Vince.

"Hello?"

"Hey Vince. It's me TJ."

"Hey Teej. What do you need?"

"It's Spinelli. I think she's keeping something from me again. I really wanna know what it is so I can help her, but she won't tell me."

"Typical. All girls do this. They say they'll trust you then they keep secrets. Typical. I'm telling you, she's probably realizing how much she feels for you and she can't bring herself to tell you for fear you won't feel the same."

"Vince I think you're wrong. Very wrong. I don't think it's that. I'm worried. She didn't act like this until Lyndsay came. I need your help."

"All right, all right. I'll talk to Lyndsay tomorrow and try to find out what it is. I'm not promising anything though."

"Thanks Vince. I gotta go. See you at school tomorrow," TJ said hanging up.

'That didn't help much,' TJ thought.

~*~NEXT DAY~*~

"Ok Spinelli. Something's wrong and I want to know what it is right now. I'm going to find out and you're going to tell me," TJ said to his mirror. He had been practicing little lines like that for hours. He wanted to find out so he had to have the perfect line. One that isn't too harsh, but will make her talk.

'That won't work,' he thought. TJ looked at his watch and noticed if he didn't leave now he'd be late for school. He decided he'd just have to think of something on the way.

~*~AT SCHOOL~*~

TJ was standing by his locker waiting for Spinelli.

"How will I ask her?" TJ said out loud to himself.

"Ask me what?" Spinelli asked coming up behind him making him jump and turn to face her.

"Oh... hi Spinelli," TJ said.

"Out with it, Detweiler," Spinelli said.

"I know something's up. I really wanna know what it is so maybe I can't help you through it. Please tell me Spin. I wanna help," TJ replied.

"Ok. I guess I can tell you," Spinelli said. She took a deep breath before continuing. "Lyndsay is my cousin. She lived in Florida so I never mentioned her. Have you ever wondered how I got my bad attitude? Well when we were three Lyndsay would always beat me up until I couldn't take it anymore. When she moved away that year I decided it was time I stood up for myself. I didn't need anyone beating and bossing me around. Now she's back. She thinks I'm still scared of her. I didn't think I was, but I don't know now," Spinelli explained.

"Oh. I'm sorry Spinelli," TJ said. Just then Lyndsay walked up.

"Hey Spinnie. Hey TJ," she said looking at each of them.

"The name's Spinelli. Not Spinnie. What do you want?" Spinelli asked.

"I wanted to talk to TJ for a moment," Lyndsay replied.

"Ok," TJ said walking away with Lyndsay. "What?"

"Why did you ask Vince to talk to me about Sinelli?" Lyndsay asked in a low voice.

"Because she was obviously keeping something from me and it started about the time you showed up so I wanted to know what was going on," TJ replied.

"Yeah well from now on just worry about yourself and stay outta mine and Spin's business. Got it? Good. Cuz if you don't then your life will be a living hell and I mean it," Lyndsay said walking away.

"What did she want?" Spinelli asked when TJ got back from his talk with Lyndsay.

"Just telling me to stay out of her business and stuff like that," TJ replied.

"Oh. Well I gotta get to class. See you at lunch," Spinelli said walking to class. Just as TJ was getting ready to go to class a voice from behind him made him stop.

"I know something about your precious Spinelli that you may want to know," said the voice. It wasn't what the voice said that made TJ stop and listen, it was who the voice belonged to that made him stop. He turned around and came face to face with...
