Ch.11 No Inhibitions, Make No Conditions

Rating: PG

Fifteen minutes later, Terri arrived at the Dot. Last she heard, Spinner was working here so it only seemed logical that he'd be here.

As she walked into the restaurant, she saw the back of Spinner's head. For the first time in her life, she left all inhibitions behind her.

Anger guiding her every move, she walked up to Spinner and smacked him square in the head.

"What the-?!" He turned around, pissed off. "Terri?" He looked at her confused.

"Hon!" Paige smiled, not realizing she was in a rage. "How are you-?"

"Shut up!" Terri snapped her off. Then she turned to Spinner. "I cannot believe you!" She gave a hollow, icy laugh. "I mean, I knew what a total and complete jerk you were, but who knew you could drive a person to suicide?!"

"Ter, what are you talking about?" He looked at her in confusion as he rubbed the back of his head.

"Rick, award ceremony, paint… any of this ring a bell?" Spinner could almost see flames in her eyes.

"Oh yeah…" He smiled, proud of his handy work. "You know about that?"

"What does that have to do with suicide?" Hazel spoke up.

"Because of this insensitive, pig-headed, ass," she poked Spinner in the stomach over and over as she spoke, "Rick brought a gun to school. Then, he tried to kill himself. Had someone not intervened, he'd be dead!" By now, Terri was screaming.

"Okay. Terri, you cannot blame me for anything that psycho did." Spinner stupidly attempted to defend himself.

She laughed in disbelief. Then she became serious again. "If you seriously believe that, then you are more screwed up than Rick ever was." She looked him right in the face, her nostrils flaring. "FYI Spin," her syllables became stressed, "Rick's not the only reason I left Degrassi." Terri thrust her hand out in front of her, causing the unprepared Spin to fall backwards. As Terri walked away, she looked back and smiled. "You know, for once, I actually understand Rick."

Author's note: Okay, that was so not Terri, but I liked her! I was so tried of Ter never having a backbone. That's why I love fanfiction!
