Chapter 12

"Maya's slipped into a coma" The doctor said sadly.

That was when Shawn's entire world came crashing down. He, he, he couldn't believe this, His daughter had went into a coma? Why?

Why did life always have to be cruel to him? Chet died, his mom left and Angela left. He would always be the one getting left.

And now his daughter was on the verge of leaving.

Shawn had felt that his world had came to an end but there was always one person to remind him that your not alone and that there's a reason your here.

Cory. Cory helped him get through all those tragic events in his life and always reminded him why he was here. To be best friends forever with him.

"Cor catch me" Shawn said after hearing the doctors words, fell back and fainted but Cory caught him.

"I got you buddy" Cory said holding Shawn and dragged him by his shoulders to the chairs where Riley and Topanga were at.

Cory made Shawn sit up at the chairs and went to go get a bottle of water. That was what Shawn needed to help him wake up from his faint attack. Cory returned three minutes later with the bottle of water.

He opened it up and poured a bit in his hand and gently splashed it on Shawn to get him to wake up. Shawn felt the water splash and started shaking his head and waking up.

"Cory what happened?" Shawn asked not remembering that he fainted over fifteen minutes and wondered what happened.

"You fainted Shawny when the doctor said Maya went into a coma. I caught you and dragged you to the chairs, You were out for a good fifteen minutes" Cory explained to Shawn.

Shawn started crying. Cory sat down next to him.

"Cory, be honest with me. Am I really that bad of a father to Maya? Did I make her slit her wrist? Does she not like living with me? Does she hate me? Do I not take care of her enough or hang out with her? Does she not love me like I love her? Am I not there for her every step of the way? Like how a dad should? Did I fail as a father?" Shawn asked Cory wanting to know what his best friends honest opinion was about how Shawn is as a dad.

Shawn was looking dead at Cory waiting for his response.

Cory didn't say anything which Shawn didn't expect. Instead Cory raised his hand up and slapped Shawn across the face.

"Ow! What did you do that for?" Shawn shrieked and put his hand up to cheek where a bruise started to form.

"Don't you ever dare say those words again Shawn Hunter! Your the best dad there is for Maya. You do more for her then her real dad ever did. You went out of your way to find out why Maya's mom missed her birthday when none of us dared to. You paid for the locket when you saw in Katy how much she wanted Maya to have it. You took the picture of her and her mom that went in the locket which makes it that much more special to her. Your so fond of her because she's your twin practically. You love her and you care about her. Which was something her dad never did for her. Your the best dad there is for Maya. We all know that and see that" Cory said sweetly and comfortingly to Shawn.

"Thanks Cor, I really needed that" Shawn said with a grateful smile.

"Any time buddy I'm always here 24/7. You know that" Cory says with a sweet smile.

Shawn then decided that he needed to go see Maya right now. He ran up to the doctor from his chair with Cory right behind him.

"Can we go in and see her?" Shawn asked hoping that the doctor would say yes.

"Yes you can go in and see her but just two at a time. It can only be for ten minutes because she needs her rest. And talk quietly in there so it doesn't disturb her" The doctor said strictly.

"Okay" Shawn said to the doctor.

Shawn turned back to Cory and said, "Let's go Cor."

Cory replied, "Right behind you buddy."

Shawn led the way into Maya's room. They both walked in and Cory closed the door behind them. Shawn walked towards Maya's bed and Cory joined him.

Shawn was looking at Maya's bed and tears started coming into his eyes.

"S-She looks so helpless Cor. She looks like a freaking ghost! I can't see her like this" Shawn said his voice breaking.

Maya looked as pale as a ghost. With her hooked up to all those machines and that mask on her mouth Shawn couldn't bear to look at her like that so he turned around and started crying again silently.

Cory hated seeing Maya like this. When Shawn was away for all these years Maya would be the one that kept him from missing him. Cory saw all things in Shawn that were in Maya which made him never miss him at all. With her always here Cory felt that he had his best friend always here with him. Right beside him.

Cory turned around to Shawn and put his arm around him.

"Everythings going to be fine. She's going to wake up" Cory said with hope.

"BUT WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T? WHAT IF SHE LEAVES ME LIKE EVERYONE ELSE HAS?" Shawn yelled out at Cory.

"Shawn look at me. Look into my eyes" Cory said seriously and put his hands on Shawn's shoulders. Shawn look up at him into his eyes.

"She's going to wake up. Maya's a fighter. Just like you. I've known her since the day her and Riley became best friends and she has every single quality you have. She has those fighter genes in her because of you. She's a full fighter just like her dad. And do you remember the day Joshua was born and was fighting for his life back in the hospital in Philly? I was worried sick and so was everyone else. We didn't know what was going to happen. But then you came back from your road trip and made everything better. Joshua survived because you told me that everything's going to be all right. And now I'm saying the same thing. Everything's going to be alright. Okay?" Cory asked Shawn after giving a heart warming speech to him.

Man, he is really good at speeches.

"Okay" Shawn said feeling convinced but didn't really feel that convinced yet.

"You don't sound convinced yet" Cory said feeling that Shawn wasn't convinced yet.

Shawn didn't say anything but Cory knew what to do to make him convinced. Cory gave Shawn a quick kiss on the cheek and then watched the blush roll in on Shawn's cheek.

"Better?" Cory asked knowing that now Shawn was better.

"Yeah. . . ." Shawn said shyly with a smirk across his lips.

Cory put his arm around Shawn and pulled him close. They both walked out of Maya's room and joined everyone out in the waiting room.

Topanga ran up to them and asked, "How is she?"

Cory and Shawn looked at each other and then at Topanga and said, "She's going to be fine. She's going to wake up."

Although Shawn didn't really feel it that much yet but he believed his best friends words. Those were the words he could always trust and rely on.

The love we got is so untouchable . . . . . .
