A/N: Hi all! Soory for not updating yesterday, by the time I got back from
kickboxing and filming, I was too tired to do much of anything else. But as
you can see, I survived my acting debut---although it was royally
embarrassing walking around campus in a pregnancy suit and playing Barbie's
pregnant best friend who has no idea who the daddy of the baby is (I did
not write this, I did this as a favor to a friend) So yeah, reviews----some
notes for you guys and gals----
LockDown---Interesting poem and analysis, but yes, Menlo needs to grow up! Have fun with your acting thing—hope you keep reading!
Depressed Sweden Lover: I love revenge too---and Menlo needs to grow up—keep reading
LilVickiRyan: Nope, its not Spinelli, lol! Wait til you see what Menlo does—Stay tuned!
Damson rhee: I never liked him either—he seems odd---hope you keep reading to find out what happens!
Clintronic Waldrop: Thank you! Hmm, Menlo has a plan---wonder what it is---- stay tuned!!

That afternoon, Hustler Kid and Vince sat on the couch watching MTV and eating popcorn. Or more specifically Vince was watching MTV and eating, Hustler Kid was reading the newspaper, trying to tune out the latest Britney Spears song. He was just about to reach for the remote control and turn down the volume when the phone rang.
"Vince, dude, get that for me?" Hustler kid asked, fiddling with the remote.
"You're closer, you get it!" Vince shot back, not moving from his position on the couch. At that moment, TJ walked in rolling his eyes at his lazy roommates and the ringing phone.
"It's ok, no one get up, I'll get it!" he said walking over to the phone and picking it up.
"Hello,' he said. "Yeah this is TJ. Oh my gosh, its you," he said in amazement.
"Is it Spinelli?" Vince asked, but TJ shushed him.
"Is that Spinellii?" Hustler Kid tried, but was also shushed by his friend.
"You want to meet up?" TJ asked into the phone, smiling at his friends, who nodded in approval.
"Chucka-chucka-chucka-choo-choo!" Vince and Hustler Kid chanted, imitating a train sound as TJ continued to make his plans. (I have no idea why I found this scene so hilarious in the movie)
"So it was her?' Hustler Kid asked after TJ finally hung up the phone.
"It was her," TJ confirmed as Hustler Kid and Vince tackled him and began dancing around the apartment.

Thursday afternoon finally rolled around and TJ waited in the café for Spinelli, thrilled that he was finally getting a second chance in love. He noticed a woman approaching his table and smile at him. He tried to find a way to tell her that he was waiting for someone, but she seemed eager to talk to him. TJ just hoped she would be gone before Spinelli came. After all, he didn't want Spinelli to think he was a player. However, the woman grabbed his arm and looked into his eyes, giving him a look that kind of scared him.
"Are you TJ?" she asked. She was young, with long light brown hair, blue eyes, and definitely not Spinelli.
"Um, yes, but I'm supposed to be meeting someone," TJ tried to tell he, but she had already sat down and took his hands, chanting something that he couldn't understand.
"Ummmmm, you are looking for something, I got a feeling from that poster," she told him, grabbing his face and trying to get a vibe from him. "You are on a search for someone special, and I think it is me! We have a cosmic connection!" she announced triumphantly.
"Well, actually, I don't even know you, and I am on a search for an Italian woman who I believe goes by the name Ashley Spin---"TJ began but he was once again cut off by Psycho Miss Cleo Wannabe.
"My powers tell me you are a Sagittarius," she whispered dramatically. "And you want to find a way to break free from your reputation."
"Um, first of all, I am a Gemini, and second of all, I hate to be rude, but I am supposed to be meeting this girl I met on the train that is definitely not you. Now if you will excuse me, I need to meet the girl I spoke with on the phone." He tried to get up to leave, but she stopped him.
"I called you," Psycho Miss Cleo Wannabe confessed. "I know I'm not Train Girl, but I think that we have a connection people don't find every day." She smiled at the waiter as he put down the food they had ordered. "But we can discuss that after we—ewww, ewww, ewww!" she yelled, pushing the plate away, causing it to land on TJ's shirt.
"Look, um, I don't know what is going on, but I take it you are unhappy with your meal? Do you want me to----"
"NO!" Psycho Miss Cleo Wannabe yelled. "You put them up to this! You told them to put pork in my food, I thought we had something, TJ I thought we had a cosmic connection! But no, you are just like the rest of them! Goodbye!" With that, the girl got up and stormed out of the café, leaving TJ wondering what the heck he had gotten himself into trying to find Spinelli. He got up and paid for the food and headed back to the apartment, where Hustler Kid Was waiting.
"That was fast, I take it it didn't go well?" he asked, noting the food stains on TJ's shirt.
"Could not have been worse. It wasn't even Spinelli, this girl had light brown hair and definitely was not Spinelli. She was this psychotic hippie fortune teller who kept going on and on about a cosmic connection. I don't know, dude, maybe this is a sign, a sign Spinelli and I aren't meant to be together, and that us meeting was just a once in a lifetime opportunity I blew. Man if I weren't so chicken, then I would be with her now. Man, I'm an idiot!" TJ said, leaning back onto the couch.
"No you aren't." Hustler Kid told him. "OK so one psycho bitch contacted you. It isn't the end of the world, I am sure wherever Spinelli is, she is feeling the same way you are and will call you. If I were her, I would be flattered that you went through the trouble to find me and call you as soon as possible."
"I hope you're right," TJ said burying his face in his hands and wondering what exactly he got himself into by putting his heart on the line for the entire town and state to see.

A/N: that's just the beginning of TJ's misadventures! Wait til you see what else happens to him! this chapter was funny to write, and the scene in the movie was even funnier (although I changed it a bit to fit the story better)I hope you r/r and enjoy the story! (and remember my rule, lol!)
