Before the Wedding

by Strawberrykin

This is a short fanfic set right before Cory and Topanga's wedding. Each chapter reflects the point-of-view of a different character. *Now finished!*

1. Topanga's Thoughts

This is my first Boy Meets World fanfiction. This chapter is a reflection of Topanga's thoughts right before her wedding. The other chapters focus on the thoughts of other characters during the same time period.

Topanga's Thoughts

This is it. This is IT! I'm getting married today.

Ohmigosh! I'm getting married today! Am I ready to get married?

Breathe, Topanga, breathe! That's it…in and out… nice, calming breaths. Ahh, that's better. Oxygen to the brain always helps clear the mind.

I wonder how Cory is doing. Maybe I'll just pop over into his dressing room and make sure he's okay. No, I can't do that! It's bad luck for him to see the bride before the wedding.

And I'm the bride! Cory and I are getting married! I am going to be Mrs. Cory Matthews. Hmm, maybe I'd rather be Mrs. Topanga Matthews. Or Ms. Topanga Lawrence-Matthews.

I can decide that later. WHERE are Angela and Rachel? My hair can't fix itself! At least I'm dressed and my makeup is on. I love this dress. I'm going to save it forever, unless someday one of my daughters wants to wear it for her wedding.

Wedding! It's half an hour until MY wedding. Where are my friends? Where?

I can't believe Shawn isn't coming. Cory is devastated. He and Shawn are so close, almost like brothers. Or maybe closer than brothers. Speaking of brothers, I don't know HOW Eric pulled this wedding off. It's so…un-Eric-like. I hope nothing goes wrong--I don't want anything to spoil my wedding day.

I am ready to get married, I know it. Cory and I are meant to be together. Even after everything we've gone through in the past year. Especially after everything we've gone through. It all just strengthened our love.

They're here! It's about time! No, wait--happy thoughts, wedding day, happy thoughts. Oh, they look beautiful! And at least they're finally here, fixing my hair. There, that's much better! Perfect.

It's just like I always dreamed. Surrounded by friends, wearing a beautiful gown, getting ready to marry the love of my life. Yes, all ready to go. Dress, check. Hair, check. Makeup, check. Veil, check.

It's time to go now? Already? Well, I'm ready. I've never been more ready for anything in my life. Yes. Here we go.
