Melissa brushed her teeth angrily. As she spat the toothpaste out she

saw blood mixed in. Melissa washed her mouth out and let out a scream.

She was so mad at Will and Tia. They were supposed to be her best friends

and they were planning a road trip without her but worst of all they

were going to see her enemy, Jessica Wakefield.

Melissa stared at her reflection. She saw a girl about 5'5, long brown

hair, ice blue eyes, pale skin, and a grim smile and then she could

almost see Jessica standing next to her. Her 5'6 frame, her slim figure,

her long blonde hair, her warm green-blue eyes, her tan skin and

friendly smile. Jessica had always been perfect. She had held her head up high

through high school and beat Melissa at her own game. Now it was time

for revenge. Try and shake up Jessica's perfect little world. Melissa

grinned her wicked smile. "Watch out Jessica Wakefield her I come," she

thought.

Megan walked into her lawyer, Jake Mitchell's office.

"Oh hi Megan" Mandi, the secretary called. Mandi and Megan were good

friends.

"Hey Mandi. Is Jake here yet?" Megan asked.

"Yeah he's in his office but I'm just doing to know what's up with the

pregnant Megan Wilkins!" Mandi exclaimed. Megan rubbed her stomach

affectionately.

"Well not for long" she said sadly. "What? What happened?" Mandi

exclaimed.

"I'm not going to be Megan Wilkins much longer. Todd and I are getting

a divorce. He cheated on me with his sleazy secretary Melissa" she

said.

"What. What an ass!" Mandi said furiously. "Well Jake's ready so go in"

Mandi said seemed distracted.

Will sat in his room looking at a picture of Jessica from high school.

She was gorgeous and Will knew he was in love with her still. He had to

find her and tell her how he felt. There was a knock.

"Uh just a minute" Will said hiding the picture under his pillow. The

door opened and there was Melissa. She was smiling.

"Will I want to go on that road trip with you and Tia" she said. The

smile was innocent but her eyes gave something away. Melissa was scheming.

"You want to go to New York to see Jessica Wakefield?" Will asked

surprised. Melissa had always despised Jessica.

"No of course not" Melissa said seeming flustered "i uh just wanted to

go see the city you know?"

"If you say so Melissa."

"You don't believe me?" Melissa asked in disbelief.

"I find it hard to believe you would leave Matt for like 3 weeks to sit

in a car for 10 hours a day, sleep in crummy motels, and then see

Jessica Wakefield" Will said. Melissa shot him an annoyed look. Behind that

sweet face he could practically see steam coming out of her ears.

"For the last time. I want to go to New York to see the city not that

slut!" Melissa yelled. Will was taken back.

"Fine" he snapped. "Just don't whine. Bring money, and pack quickly

we're leaving 2 days" Melissa smiled at Will. As she turned around, Will

couldn't help feeling that this was one bad of an idea.

"Hey Megan what are you doing here?" Jake asked.

"Hey Jake err Mr. Mitchell. I've got some matters to discuss" Megan

said.

"Please Megan it's Jake" he said laughing. Megan blushed. Jake and

Megan and known each other from college so there was no reason to call him

Mr. Mitchell. She called him Jake behind his back.

"Well it's got to do with me and Todd," she admitted. Megan was oddly

embarrassed. She just wanted to file for a divorce but to others her life

had seemed perfect and now she was going to be a single mother.

"Hey what happened to the perfect couple?" Jake asked.

"Please that's what we're not. I want a divorce," Megan said boldly.

Jake eyed Megan's stomach.

"What happened?" he asked his voice full of concern.

"He cheated on me," Megan said simply. Jake's eyes opened wide but he

didn't say anything. For a few seconds it was completely silent and then

he spoke

"Well are you sure you don't want to wait? By the time the divorce is

finalized your baby will probably be a month or two old. If you waited

until after the baby was born"

"No" Megan said cutting him off. "I don't want to be with Todd anymore.

I'm staying with my brother right now. You should have his number"

"Well I'll start to get the papers ready. Is there anything I can do?"

Jake asked.

"No not really" Megan said

"Megan do you want to go out with me" Jake blurted out.
