Plot: Lauren stops by for a little visit and things get ugly.

"Cory, are you alright?" Lauren asked running towards him leaving Topanga still on the ground. She grunted, exasperated.

Cory was hunched over puking his guts out, while Lauren patted his back.

"I'm fine." He said shakily.

"Aw you poor thing." Topanga scowled at her.

"So what are you doing in New York?" Cory asked wiping his lip.

"Well I actually just moved here I got a job at John Quincy Adams middle school. Have you heard of it?" Cory's stomach began to churn again.

"I- I- I'm a teacher there." He stuttered.

"Oh my gosh! Me too!"

"Well I guess I'll see you Monday."

"Yep, oh Cory I haven't seen you in over 14 years. The last time I saw you was when you and Topanga came up there… Are you two still married?"

"Turn around." Topanga said coldly. Lauren swiftly turned to see a flaming Topanga standing behind her.

"Oh, so I'm guessing you two are still married then."

"Yeah and we should get going since Cory's sick." Topanga grabbed Cory's hand and nearly dragged him out the park.

The two didn't talk the whole way home, partly because of Cory being nauseous for some unknown reason and because of Topanga's anger boiling inside.

Riley, Shawn, and Auggie were in the living room playing the family game when Cory and Topanga walked in.

"How was your date?" Shawn asked.

Cory began to turn green and he darted out the room. "So I'm guessing not well?" Shawn chuckled a bit.

"Well it was going fine until that ski bunny showed up…"

"Lauren? What the hell is she doing in New York?" Shawn asked.

"Beats me, she said she has a new job at John Quincy Adams, I don't think that's just some coincidence."

"Your right that's weird, do you think she's here for Cory?"

"That's what scares me, when he saw her he threw up. It makes me think he's hiding something from me…"

"Cory wouldn't hide anything from you."

Topanga glared at him and sighed. She thought maybe she was just overreacting, boy was she wrong.

Monday came and Cory was so nervous he could pass out. He hadn't asked Lauren what kind of teacher she was but he had an awful feeling she was a history one. He was worried that he's going to end up doing something he'd regret while being around her. Cory loved Topanga so much and wouldn't want to hurt her for anything in the world, but he did it once and you never know if he'd do it again.

"Good morning." Cory said nervously.

"Morning honey, did you sleep well?" Topanga asked.

"Yeah." He lied. He'd been tossing and turning all night thinking about today.

"Are you feeling better dad?" Riley asked stuffing her face with a pop-tart.

He simply nodded his head. Ever since he saw Lauren he'd been throwing up but at random times. Maybe he was just nervous about seeing his old flame return.

Maya eventually joined them for breakfast before heading out the apartment with Auggie and Riley.

"Have a good day, honey." Topanga smiled and pecked his cheek before grabbing her coat and briefcase. Cory needed a little more than just a peck to get him through the day.

He ran to Topanga and wrapped his arms around her. Cory kissed her passionately and slowly. Her bag fell right out of her hands as they continued to kiss in the middle of their living room.

When they broke for air Topanga was speechless. "Whoa."

"I love you Topanga, I will love you until the day I die no matter what I love you." Cory hugged her and grabbed his things before rushing out the door. The kiss, hug, and the "I love you" made Topanga very suspicious of him.

"Hi Cory." Lauren said. He jumped and his heart was racing as he turned around to see her standing behind him.

"O-O-Oh hey." Cory stuttered.

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you." She said innocently.

"Well I should get to my classroom." Cory said trying to rush off.

"Hey, we have some time." She pulled on his arm which made him feel uneasy inside.

"So how's life been for ya?"

"Well ya know it has been like a life."

"Hmm, very interesting now I know everything." Cory laughed a little at her joke.

"Well I've been married for almost 16 years, I have three children, and I work here."

"Oh, sounds like the perfect life." Lauren sighed.

"Yep."

"What about you, ever find that special someone?"

Lauren smiled. "I was actually engaged and I ran out on our wedding, I couldn't marry him it didn't feel right. I felt like he wasn't the one." She put emphasis on the one.

Cory laughed nervously. "That's why I came here, for a fresh start."

"Well hopefully you'll find the one here in the big city."

"I think he's closer than he thinks." She winked and walked away flipping her long brown hair. Cory felt his stomach in knots and he felt dizzy.

"Dad, who was that?" Riley asked curiously.

"Oh, um, just a new teacher."

"She seemed like she knew you."

"Nope, I've never seen her in my life!" and with that Cory rushed off to the classroom.

"Well that was weird." Riley said to herself.

Cory wasn't able to focus all class due to his constant thoughts about Lauren and how nauseated he felt. He had no idea what had come over him in the last few days. Luckily he was able to keep it down.

"Is your dad alright?" Maya asked as they walked to math.

"I don't know, he seemed to be really nervous when I asked him who this woman he was talking to was."

"Hmm, seems like he has a secret." Maya smirked.

"Oh no, please don't tell me you have a plan on finding out what it is."

"And what if I do have a plan…"

"I'm gonna have to help you with this, aren't I?"

"Yep!" Riley groaned as Maya took her arm and told her the master plan.

The end of the day had come. Riley and Maya were hiding in the girl's bathroom waiting for all the students to leave.

"How do we even know this girl is going to go and talk to my dad?" Riley whined.

"Because the way you were described her she sounded awfully familiar."

Riley did notice the women seemed familiar but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Maya cracked the door open a tad to see if she was coming and sure enough she was.

"Come on, let's go!" Maya grabbed Riley's arm and the two made their way towards Cory's classroom.

"Hiya." Lauren said lightly knocking on the already opened door.

"Hey."

"So whatcha doin?"

"Just organizing some papers." Lauren closed the door behind her.

"I need to talk to you." Cory felt that feeling in his stomach again.

"Ok."

"Cory, when I was going to get married you wanna know why I ran out?"

"Not really." Cory said trying to get out of the room.

"I was thinking of you. Cory I've been thinking of you ever since you put your head into my jacket. I know you enjoyed that." Lauren smirked.

"Yeah well I'm married and I've enjoyed better if you know what I mean."

"Hmm, she's good?"

"Yeah she is. We have three kids."

Lauren chuckled. "Well I could've given you better than good."

Cory stared at her in disbelief. "Look Lauren I'm sure you're great and all but I love Topanga no matter what."

"Tell me you've thought about me, what life would've been like if you would've stayed with me."

"I don't do that."

"I know you're lying."

"I dunno maybe sometimes…"

"I knew it!" Lauren cornered him and he felt his body stiffen.

"Admit it, you have this average life, an average house, an average job, average kids, you even have an average love life."

"That's not true."

"Of course it is, admit you want me." Cory's throat had a huge lump inside of it.

"Just let me go you know I'm married."

Lauren grabbed his chin and gazed into his eyes. "Just get lost into my eyes alright."

Cory was paralyzed. Lauren leaned into him and he felt trapped and hopeless. It's like his heart wanted to escape but his body didn't want to cooperate with him.

That's when it happened, her lips pressed against his. The kiss lasted a good 5 seconds. Tears formed in Cory's eyes as he saw Riley and Maya standing in the doorway of the classroom.

The only other time Cory had pushed someone was when he pushed his college teacher when he tried to make a move on Topanga. Now was officially the second time he pushed someone on purpose.

He pushed Lauren so hard he was surprised she didn't go through the floor.

"DON'T EVER QUESTION HOW I FEEL ABOUT MY WIFE AGAIN! I LOVE HER WITH ALL OF MY HEART AND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE HER NO MATTER WHAT!" Lauren seemed petrified.

"But you kissed me."

"No! You kissed me, you held me down to I couldn't escape."

"I know you felt something."

"You're right I did feel something. I felt like I was kissing a fish! When I kiss Topanga fireworks blow up inside of me, even the tiniest peck will set them off. I love her so much more now since you kissed me." Lauren stared at him with disgust.

Cory shot out the room trying to hurry home before Riley and Maya got there.

"Topanga!" Cory screamed.

"What's wrong?" Topanga asked in a soothing tone. Cory hurried over to her knocked her onto the couch he kissed her and kissed her some more until he felt his lips might fall off.

"Cory, are you alright?" Topanga panted.

"Lauren kissed me." he said flatly. Topanga's screamed and threw him off of her. He expected that.

"SHE WHAT, YOU WHAT, HOW THE HELL DID YOU ALOW THAT TO HAPPEN?!"

"Topanga it's made me realize that I love you even more!"

"CORY DO YOU EVEN REALIZE HOW MAD I AM AT YOU RIGHT NOW I JUST WANNA RIP YOUR HEAD OFF AND-" she was interrupted by a door slam.

"Mom, stop! Dad's innocent!" Riley said.

"Riley, this isn't your place to just butt in."

"But it is my place; Maya and I saw the whole thing and heard everything. Dad stood up for you the whole time! She corned him and kissed him but he pushed her!"

Topanga looked at Cory, her angry expression disappearing. "Mrs. Matthews don't be mad at him."

"Is this true?"

"Every word." He whispered taking her hand. Topanga smiled and leaned up to kiss him gently. The fireworks slowly starting to go off.

Riley and Maya make a face and run out the room leaving the two alone. "I love you." Cory said rubbing his nose against her forehead.

"I love you too." Topanga said wrapping her arms around him.

"Oww!" he yelped pulling her off of him.

"What's wrong?"

"Oww, my side." He groaned clutching his right side.

"Aw, sit down on the couch." Topanga lead him to the couch to try and sooth the sudden pain her was experiencing.

"How bad is it?" Topanga said placing her hand over his side.

"It hurts, a lot." Topanga began to apply a little bit of pressure to his side before he screamed.

"Don't ever do that again!" Cory whimpered.

Topanga thought for a moment and then felt her stomach turn into knots. "Cory, you know how you're having this horrible pain on your right side and how you've been vomiting a lot?"

"Yeah…"

"I think you're gonna need your appendix removed."

Cory's eyes widened.

Hello lovelies! So this was basically a Corpanga chapter and I'm sorry if you didn't like it but ya know.

Lauren will actually be brought up again in later chapter so she's not done with Cory yet. I didn't want Corpanga to have this super long fight because I thought that would be stupid.

So next chapter we get back on track with Rucas and Markle and also the girls meet a substitute teacher for a little bit considering Cory needs his appendix removed. If you remember is season 4 when he had his tonsils removed her was horrified at the thought well he's just as horrified next chapter.

Tell me what you thought of the chapter and I'll try and get another one out tomorrow! Remember to review as well. I'll talk to you later :)
