The next day, after Spinelli had gone home, Gretchen decided to call Vince and let him know about the new experiement. As she dialed, her hands shook, because she was embarassed about talking about stuff like this to her crush.
"Hey," Vince said, he obviously seemed to be waiting for a phone call because he picked up the phone immediately after the phone rang once.
"Hey Vince, it's Gretchen, whats up?"
"Oh nothing. Just woundering where TJ went. I havent seen him for a while, and I thought he would have called me by now," Vince replied then added," So why did you call?"
Gretchen frowned, disapointed that Vince really didnt want to talk to her. "Um, TJ and Spinelli, yeah"
"Oh, well. Theres nothing wrong with TJ if thats what your thinking," Vince replied a little too quickly, then noticed he almost gave it away.
"Please I already know and so does Spinelli, she told me she noticed it,"
"SPINELLI KNOWS?" Vince yelled into the phone," But shes not suppossed to know. TJ is going to die when he finds out"
"Yeah, she noticed in gym class, but if you keep your mouth shut, TJ will never know"
"Okay, fine. But what are we going to do about this? TJ obviously likes Spinelli and I know she liked him. We need a plan!"
"Likes--present tense--and i was thinking another experiemnt"
"Okay if TJ cant hold himself in for a couple mins alone with Spinelli, what makes you think he will be able to do another experiement without letting himself out," Vince pointed out, obviously not convinced this would work.
"Well i was thinking we all meet at Fort Tender and kinda push them together or something"
"I dont think the fort would be a good place to be. I mean if that does happen, there will be no way he can go home without anybody outside thinking he wet himself. Anymore ideas of where to go?"
"Um, my house?"
"That would be better. Plus, the both of them can;t expect anything since of course, your his cousin and hes over at your house all the time."
"Exactly, so when should we do this thing?"
"How about Friday? Right after school?"
"OK, we just invite them over, just like that?"
"Well, we might wanna invite other the rest of the guys, since they might notice something is going on. Does Spinelli already know about this?"
"Yeah, the experiement was partially her idea" then Gretchen continued, " Do we tell Mikey and Gus?"
"No. Gus would never understand. And Mikey will probably catch on after we get there"
"That's true, so what exactly should we do to push them together?"
"TJ will never make a move, Spinelli is the brave one. Let her work the magic." Vince said in a sly voice.
"If i didnt know better, i would think you like Spinelli too," Gretchen said, with a hint of jealousy.
"What the heck! Why are you accusing me of liking my best friend's girl?" Vince sounded surprised Gretchen would bring that up.
"Well you said work her magic, so you must feel something!" Gretchen yelled, shocked by her jealous behavior.
"To work on TJ! God Gretchen. Don't take everything seriously. Well i have someone on the other line and I think its Teej, so bye" Vince shouted back and then clicked to the other line.
"OK, why did i just do that?" Gretchen thought as she listened to the dial tone
"Hello?" Vince said as he clicked to the other line
"Hey, Man. Vince you will never guess what I just did!," TJ said, sounding horribly sad.
"Got in trouble for the comment about Randals mom?"
"No i was over at Spinelli's house!"
"Oh, gosh, so what happened?" Vince asked.
"Well we were sitting in her bedroom and," TJ began but Vince interupted.
"You didn't do what I think you did, did you?" Vince asked TJ.
"Um, well what do you mean by that?" TJ asked nervously
"As in, you...her..alone?" Vince said, wondering if this was true or not and then added,"So you did?"
"Did what? Be more specific!" TJ yelled, wondering what Vince was getting at.
"You and her. In her room. Alone. With nobody there. You both like each other. DO I HAVE TO SPELL THIS OUT?"
"We didnt have---wait she likes me?" TJ asked interuppting his rant.
"Duh, Did you really think she didn't?"
"She never said anything, so i assumed we were just friends"
"Well, why else would she always talk to you? And anyways. What happened in her bedroom? i want full details,"
"Well, we were talking and watching TV and just laying on her bed," TJ began
"and...." Vince said getting impatient
**********************FLASHBACK********************
Spinelli and TJ were sitting on her bed, watching MTV. At the moment the music countdown was on. "So... " Spinelli began," Why did you come over?" While D12's new song My Band blasted through the background (a/n: I love this song! )
"Cant a guy visit his best friend?" TJ asked with a smile, touching her arm slightly.
"Well, yeah. But i thought you said you were sick in gym the other day, so i was thinking you would be sick right now also," Spinelli replied, trying to make it soudn like she hadn't noticed anything.
"I'm better now and wanted to make up for being kinda rude the other day,"
"Well.... thanks then," Spinelli replied, scooting closer to TJ and knowing he was still a little embarassed over what had happened the other day.
"anything for you," he said with a smile and sitting up
"So.. Are you hungry?"
"Um, yeah"
"Wanna go downstairs and get something to eat then?" She asked, grabbing him by the hand and pulled him off her bed.
TJ follwed her, praying nothing embarassing would happen. As Spinelli talked to him as they were making their way down the stairs, TJ was so into Spinelli he wasn't watching where he was going and tripped down the stairs, bringing Spinellli down with him and when they landed, they were in the same possition as they were in Gym class. The only good thing for TJ right now was that they had only tripped 3 stais from the bottom.
"whoa, you ok?" Spinelli asked
TJ rolled over to look at Spinelli and then noticing their possition turned bright red with embarassment," Oh. Ummmm. Sorry," TJ stuttered.
"It's ok," Spinelli squeaked, wondering if she should make a move. Spinelli was about to lean in, but as soon as TJ saw what she was about to do, he jumped up and said, " Race you to the kitchen!" Spinelli got up and followed him, disapointed that he didnt want to kiss her.
"So what do you want to eat, Teej?" The disapointment showing strongly in her voice, making TJ feel worse than he already did.
"Um, whatever is fine" TJ answered, kicking himself for not kissing her.
"Well im going to get a bannana, you can get whatever you want."
TJ grabbed an apple and turned to spinelli, ready to apologize when he noticed what she was eating. TJ could feel himself turning red, and sweating, while thinking about Spinelli and what she was eating.
'Is she trying to blow me up?' He thought to himself.
TJ tried to ignore the thought, but his mind kept wandering back to it and what the banana could have symbolized. "Are you okay Teej?" Spinelli asked. And then realized what he must be thinking. 'Oh my god' She thougt to herself ' He wouldnt want to do that... would he? i mean he wont even kiss me!'
Spinelli put her banana down and sat next to him, putting her arms around him and hugging him close to her.
"Teej? Are you okay?" TJ felt her breath on his neck making his, um, current situation even more uncomfortable and embarassing. "Come on, Teej. You know you can tell me anything," Spinelli whsipered in his ear. TJ tried to back away without offending her, but ended up falling off his chair and onto the floor. "Could yu get anymore clumsy?"
"Um, um, i got to got spin, i need to feed my dog!"
"But you dont have a dog?"
"We are um, taking care of my Uncle Cedric's dog! see ya!" TJ got up and ran out, trying to hide his problem, which was impossible, since he was wearing track pants.
*********END FLASHBACK*************
"Dude, you really know how to end a perfect moment dont you?" Vinced Exclaimed
"Well I didnt want her seeing my problem and its her own fault for eating a banana!" TJ argued
"Its your own fault for being perverted!"
"Well, we were coming so close to making out right on her stairs, what was i supposed to think?"
"Why didnt you make out with her?"
"because i didnt want to scare her! she thinks we're just friends!"
"Why would she be making a move if you were just friends? I mean she leaned in to kiss you man, and yu ran away!"
"I guess i panicked!" TJ said "And she was hugging me and it was awesome and what do i do?"
"I think you should make a move on her this Friday night when we all go over to Gretchens house" and anyways Vince added," "You come up with the lamest excuse in the history of the world! Dude do something already before she hooks up with someone else! I think Bob likes her too. He was looking at her before"
"Gretchen's? Why are we going there?"
"Just to hang out,"
"Dude i am not hitting on her in front of everyone! I can barely deal with my problem when we are alone! how do you deal?"
"I deal by not worrying so much, get a hold of yourself, man. I mean, its spinelli we are talking about. Not a girl you have never known"
"So stay calm and make a move? what kind of move? flowers? just kiss her? what?"
"Just KISS her,"
"OK, i will... but lets hope the mouse stays in the house so to speak"
