Hey guys, I recently started reading some Wayside fanfics and I thought I should write my own story since there are so few.
ToddxMaurecia.
Hope you enjoy my story.
"Another day at Wayside. Well, at least its Friday." Todd, a 11-year-old orange-haired boy thought to himself as he stepped off the bus. Todd glanced around as he started walking towards the school. "And Maurecia didn't cover the school in hearts again, nice!"
Todd had now somewhat gotten use to the wackiness of Wayside. He had been there for six months now.
As Todd started his daily climb to his classroom on the 30th floor, he saw a purple-haired girl with glasses and a chubby dark-skinned boy with glasses talking as they ascended the next staircase. "Hey Dana, Myron, wait up!" Todd said as he jogged to catch up with the two. The pair looked back and waved as Todd caught up to them. "Man, I am never going to get use to these stairs." Todd said, breathing heavily.
As they finally got to the 30th floor, Todd was suddenly sent flying across the hallway into some lockers. "Hey Maurecia." Todd said dryly before even getting up. As Todd slowly stood up while he rubbed his shoulder, his eyes locked on to a blue-haired girl with a pink helmet and skates who was staring at him with a love-struck gaze. "Oh Todd. You know me so well. So, are you ready to be my boyfriend yet?" Todd sighed and rolled his eyes as he walked back to his three friends. "No Maurecia. Like I've said probably thousands of times by now. No." Maurecia just kept smiling. "Don't worry Todd, I'll break you down eventually." Maurecia said seductively. Todd looked at his swollen shoulder. "The only thing you're gonna break down are the bones in my shoulder."
The four entered the class and started talking with their classmates. The bell rang shortly after and the tall, pink-haired teacher Mrs. Jewels entered the classroom. "Dana, are all the students and monkeys accounted for?" Dana quickly scanned the room for the 10th time. "Yes Ma'am." "Ok good. Class, before we start our usual instructions, I have an announcement. All the students at Wayside are going to be living inside the school for all of next week!"
The whole class cheered, except Todd, whose eyes widened at the terrifying news. "Oh god no. A whole week at Wayside with… Maurecia?!" Todd thought fearfully as he glanced over at Maurecia. Of course, Maurecia was already staring at him with her usual love-struck gaze and batted her eyes at him as she made a heart out of her hands. Todd groaned and put his head on his desk. "I can already hear my bones being grinded into dust by Maurecia." Todd thought. "What kind of idiot would plan this?"
The speakers to the school suddenly turned on as the class continued to celebrate. "Of course." Todd thought angrily.
"Hello all of you whatchamacallits, this is your Principal, Mr. Kidswatter. As your teachers should have told you by now, there will be a week-long sleepover at the school starting next Monday. There will be normal class until school would normally end. After that, you will be allowed to do whatever you want until the next day as long as you stay on school property. This event will hopefully get you closer to your classmates and to your school." Mr. Kidswatter then snorted loudly into the mic. "Oh, man Louis, it is gonna suck to have your job with the mess these thingamajigs are gonna make of the school every day. What? This thing is still on? Well tur-" The class stared blankly for a few seconds and then immediately went back to cheering.
"Oh god, this is the perfect chance to get closer to Todd! I am going to get as close to Todd as humanly possible!" Maurecia thought as she continued to look at Todd who still had his head on his desk. "I can see it now! Todd and I, alone on the roof late at night! And then Todd will…" Maurecia squealed loudly as her imagination ran wild.
"Oh god, I have to be with Maurecia for a full uninterrupted week? I don't think I can even be sent home early." Todd thought as he slammed his head into his desk over and over.
"Oh, Todd." Maurecia said affectionately as she skated over to her love while ignoring his obvious distress. Todd slowly lifted his bruised head up and realized that Maurecia was now sitting in his lap. "Ah!" Todd yelled as he quickly got out of his chair. Maurecia had a huge, seductive grin across her face. "Hi Todd. Since I can't bring Fluffy with me to school for a full week, it's just gonna be the two of us! Aren't you excited my love? It's gonna be a brief look at our future when we're married!" Maurecia said as she put her hands on her face, blushing and giggling as she thought about marrying Todd. "Ugh, yea… great." Todd replied dryly. Todd was quickly sent flying into the bookshelf next to his chair by a swift punch from Maurecia.
Mrs. Jewels suddenly appeared in front of Todd who was still getting up. "Todd, must you interrupt the class?" Todd rubbed his shoulder as he looked around the room and saw everyone was still talking about the announcement. "But everyone else is talking…" Todd said defensively. "That's no excuse Todd, I'm sorry but you are going to have to go home on the kindergarten bus." Todd grunted as he got up and left the classroom. "Until Monday my love!" Maurecia dreamily said as she blew a kiss at Todd. Todd's eyes widened as he narrowly ducked below the deadly kiss. As soon as the kiss touched the wall behind him, it exploded, causing a huge hole to appear in the side of the class. "Man, she is falling more in love with me every day." Todd thought as he stepped through the hole in the wall. "If this was earlier in the year, that hole would have only been half as big."
Todd continued to think as he descended the stairs of the 30-story school. "I really need to do something about Maurecia, she isn't letting up on the punching…" Todd looked at his shoulder and moaned, "And, they are even more painful than before! Maybe I should do some push-ups or something."
"Or, maybe… I should give her a chance?" Todd flinched as he finally got to the bottom of the school and onto the kindergarten bus. "What was that? Why would I have romantic feelings for Maurecia!" Todd yelled as the bus driver closed the doors. The kindergartners and the bus driver were all looking at Todd now. Todd realized this and started to turn red. "Oh, uh did I say that last part out loud? Heh, sorry." Todd sunk into his seat embarrassed. Almost immediately, the kindergartners started chanting love songs about Todd and Maurecia. Todd sunk further and further into his seat as the bus drove off.
As soon as the bus got to his house, Todd ran off as fast as he could, not being able to take another second of the kindergartners' terrible singing.
Once Todd got inside his house, he threw his backpack on the ground and went into the kitchen. Todd noticed a note on the refrigerator door. "Dear Todd, I know you probably got sent home early again, so I made you a PB&J. -Love Mom." Todd opened the fridge and took out the sandwich. Todd finished the sandwich quickly and then went up to his room and played some video games.
After a couple hours, Todd turned off his Xbox and laid down on the edge of his bed, thinking about that random thought that popped into his head earlier. "Maybe, I should give Maurecia a chance." Todd thought out loud, "I mean, she can be nice and we already spend a lot of time together anyway. She helped me sell my various inventions after Kidswatter took advantage of me and she helped me free that Octopus. Not to mention she saved my life on my first day of school at Wayside from that computer." Todd rolled on his side and winced as he put weight on his shoulder, immediately sitting up. "Oh yea, but then there's the endless barrages of punches that have been going on since the first day I came to Wayside, six freakin months ago! But maybe, just maybe, if I agree to be her boyfriend, I could get her to stop punching me?" Todd got up from his bed and started pacing back and forth. "But what if she just starts punching me more, and even harder, as she falls more in love?" Todd gulped and looked at his heavily bruised shoulder again. "But that's already happening anyway. The size of that hole in the classroom wall from her kiss is proof. Things need to change or my shoulder is gonna fall off."
As Maurecia jumped onto her bed after a long day at Wayside, she stuck her hand under her pillow and pulled out a large, badly beaten photo album that contained all her pictures of Todd. As she flipped through her binder, with love in her eyes, she sighed. "Oh Todd, I'll keep punching and punching you until you are mine." Maurecia said affectionately as she started to punch all the pictures in her book.
After pummeling the photo album, Maurecia slid the book back under her pillow and took off her helmet and skates.
"But what if punching doesn't work on Todd?" Maurecia flinched at the random thought that just entered her head.
"But Todd is the only boy who has been able to withstand my punches for so long! Other boys were never so nice to me after I started pummeling them!" Maurecia thought, angry that this new voice in her head would dare say such a thing.
"I know, I know. Clearly Todd is special. Like you said, he has been able to withstand all your punches these past months. I'm not saying give up on him girl!" Maurecia relaxed a little bit as she heard the last part. "I'm just saying you need to take the next step! Remember, insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. And girl, you crazy if you think Todd is an exception." Maurecia raised her eyebrow, surprised that this new voice is really coming from her own head. She was also a little excited because the voice sounded logical, like Todd. "Ok, what should I do?" Maurecia asked the new voice in her head. "Well, I have some thoughts on that." The new voice said confidently.
Todd woke up at 6:00 early Monday morning, groaning that the weekend was over and that he was finally going to have to confront Maurecia.
Todd nervously got off the bus and looked up at Wayside. Todd had his usual clothes and backpack on along with a suitcase in his right hand filled with clothes, body wash, etc. Todd darted his eyes around, anxiously looking for the blue-haired skater girl. Even though Todd did not see her, he was already starting to get a little red in the face just thinking about her.
Todd entered Wayside and continued to look around nervously. There were kids everywhere with similar suitcases, all excited for the week.
As Todd continued to walk around, he saw Dana sitting on a bench reading the Wayside Rule Book. "Hey Dana." Todd said as he walked up to her. Dana looked up from her book and smiled, "Hi Todd. I was just memorizing all the new rules for after class hours. You ready for the best week ever?" "Yea." Todd replied, looking around nervously. "What's wrong Todd? You look a little red." Dana said, looking closely at Todd's face. "Uh," Todd squeaked as he cleared his throat, "Have you seen Maurecia?" Todd said softly as his face continued to grow even more red. "Maurecia? No, why?" "Oh, I… uh… just wanted to be prepared for her punches!" Todd said, laughing weakly. Todd started to sweat a little bit as Dana silently stared at him. "Well, I'll see ya in class Dana." Dana squinted her eyes as Todd awkwardly shuffled away.
Todd turned the corner and saw the blue-haired girl angrily trying to shove her suitcase into her locker and blushed slightly. Todd couldn't help but think that, for some reason, Maurecia looked cuter than usual today. "Oh god, am I really going to do this?" Todd anxiously thought as he stared at her.
Maurecia, after successfully forcing her suitcase into her locker, kissed her fist and punched one of her pictures of Todd. "Yep, this has got to stop and there is only thing I can do. I have to speak her language." Todd thought to himself as he looked at his fist and clenched it. Todd started jog and Maurecia and was gaining speed as he approached her.
Less than ten yards away now, Todd winded up his fist. Maurecia heard footsteps coming quickly from her side and glanced in Todd's direction.
As Maurecia turned her body to see who was running at her, Todd jumped in the air and launched his fist at Maurecia's shoulder.
Todd's eyes widened in fear as he realized that Maurecia turned her body too quickly. But it was too late, Todd could not stop himself and the punch was let out in full force.
A split second after the punch connected and Todd landed on the floor, his face contorted in fear. He had just superman punched Maurecia square in the face.
