Title: Jealousy and Changes

Summary: Maurecia has always loved her tomboy lifestyle but when a pretty,sly girl comes to Wayside and is attracted to Todd, Mauecia starts thinking that Todd may like her if she was more girly.

Disclaimer: I do not own Wayside, although I wish they would bring the newer episodes to the U.S

Maurecia sat at her desk drawing hearts with the letter T and M in it when she heard Miss Jewels call attention to the class. It was then she noticed a girl she had never seen before stand just in front of their teacher, hands clasped together in front of her. He wore a long white skirt with sandals complete with a light pink cami and she had dark brown hair curled just past her shoulders and had stunning green eyes.

"Class, this is our new student Summer Williams," she announced.

The new girl had definitely got all the attention of the class, at least all the boys. Maurecia noticed with narrowed eyes that Summer was staring directly at the love of life, Todd.

"Where would you like to sit Summer?", Miss Jewels asked kindly.

It was then that Summer started walking towards the back of the room right in front of Todd. As she sat down, Summer seemed to smile seductively at Todd, at least to Maurecia she was and what made it worst was that Todd seemed to redden at the look, which looked very noticeable on the redhead.

'What's with this new girl and Todd? He couldn't possibly fall for that china doll!', Maurecia thought to herself. She knew Todd didn't need some delicate girl but she though back to what he said on the camping trip.

"Your just too rough"

Maurecia slid down into her seat as her usual love-filled thoughts of Todd turned to self-doubtful and depressive ones.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

As Maurecia skated down the hall she saw Todd at the water-fountain, she smiled as she drifted to him in a daze. As she creapt up behind him she aimed a punch to his unprotected shoulder.

"OW!", he cried as he clutched his shoulder in pain.

"Hi Todd...", she said in a dreamy tone.

"Oh hey Maurecia," he greeted.

"Oh Todd, who is this?", said Summer who had come out from behind Todd.

"This is Maurecia, Maurecia, you remember Summer from our class", he introduced the two.

Maurecia just nodded her head stiffly but realized how rude she was being. This girl never did anything to her and she hadn't exactly hown any real interest in Todd yet. Maurecia reached toshake the girls hand.

"I'll see you guys in a bit, I'm going to find a seat in the cafeteria," Todd said as he walked away from the two girls.

After Todd was out of sight Summer had harshly slapped Maurecia's hand away. Maurecia pulled back offended.

"What's your problem??", she yelled indigently.

"Your the problem" the girl said in a deathly cold and quiet voice.

Maurecia just widened her eyes when the girl wore a smirk on her face.

"I've seen the way you look and speak to Todd, you likehim don't you?", Summer asked slyly. Maurecia just rolled her eyes.

"Well yeah, that's old news! Most of the school knows that!"

"But why would Todd like a girl like you!!", summer said proudly.

"Huh??"

"I mean just look at you, what kind of decent girl wears roller bldes and a helmet to school. I mean if the helmet had flowers or something it would be sorta understandable but it has flames on it! I mean, come on!!"

"I like my rollerblades! I've had them forever!", Maurecia said offended.

"And just look at your personality..", Summer had started.

"What of it??"

"I mean what girl actually hurts the guy she likes most!", Summer stated.

"What better way to say '"I love you!"' then a good hit!" Maurecia said.

"Just face it girl, your nothing but a tomboy with skates, you couldn't possibly offer Todd anything,", Summer stated with satisfaction.

"And you could?", challenged Maurecia skeptically.

"Oh course I could! I mean just look at me! I have long luscious hair, stunning eyes, and a much more beautiful clothes than YOU! Just face the facts, you dont stand a chance!!", she stated proud and maliciously.

With that said, Summer skipped off singing Todd's name while Maurecia stood shell-shocked, boiling with rage and humiluation. But was left with a single thought that brought self-doubt and dread.

'What if she's right?'
