Hey I don't own Boy Meets World. So don't sue me.
Dedication Page
Chapter 3
Dad come on you know that I don't like ham in my lunch.
Cory: Ethan you seemed to like it just fine last week because it was the only thing you would eat.
Ethan: But I don't want it today.
Cory: Why don't you do what I always did and trade it for something better.
Ethan: Okay fine.
Cory: Where are your sister and your brothers. You guys are going to be late for school.
Ethan: Well, I think that Jeremy and Jamie are fighting over the bathroom. And AJ is still sleeping. And I think that Brandon is trying to finish up his homework.
Cory: Ethan go and get Jeremy, Jamie, and Brandon because your Uncle Josh will be here any minute to give you guys a ride to school.
Ethan: Al Right
On the outside Cory Matthews had the perfect family life. He had a wife of Fifteen years Topanga. Also, the Matthews clan had five children. Ethan was the oldest at 12. Then came Jeremy at 10. Brandon is 9. Jamie the only girl is 5. And Alan Junior also known as AJ is 20 months old. They all lived in Philadelphia right where their parents had grown up. But Cory's life was far from perfect. Ethan was born during their senior year of college so Cory had to drop out of school and support the family. His wife Topanga finished college and then went on to finish law school. She now had a pretty high profile job and it was very time consuming. He rarely saw his wife anymore. She is never home for dinner and she is rarely home by nine. Topanga has become a workaholic. She works six days a week. The kids definitely miss their mother. When she's home they all compete for her attention. Cory tries to make up for their mother's absence by being super dad. He coaches Jeremy and Brandon's soccer team. He has been the Boy Scout leader. He chuffers around Jamie to her dance lessons. Cory almost had the hardest part of the day done getting the kids off to school. All he had to do was to wait for his baby brother to come and take his kids to school. He still thought of Josh as a baby but he was far from that. He was sixteen almost seventeen and growing into being a pretty decent guy. Josh did Cory an incredible favor for them. Cory was getting antsy he did not want the kids to be late. So he yelled out of the kitchen window.
Cory: Josh get a move on. I can see you in the kitchen you guys are going to be late.
Josh: I am coming. Don't loose your cheerios. Let me just get my bag.
Josh Matthews jumped over the white picket fence that George Feeny installed years ago. Now Cory and Topanga resided in Feeny's old house. Feeny sold it to the new parents right before Ethan was born. Now Feeny lives in Florida with the dean.
Josh: Have no fear the Josh man is here.
Cory: Josh man? You are such a loser.
Josh: Hey this loser is going to give your kids a ride to school and will even pick them up. There's just one problem gas money.
Cory: Hey didn't I just give you gas money yesterday?
Josh: Yeah It was worth a shot though.
Cory: Everybody get your lunches and bags and get into the car. Bye
Now Cory ran upstairs and got AJ out of his crib. He quickly changed him and brought him downstairs to feed him before he gets fussy.
Cory: Okay so what will it is today, Sport. Baby Carrots or Squash. Both yummy choices but I think that I it seems like a carrot day to me.
Cory turned on the Regis and Kelly Show to give him something to watch while he was feeding him.
Regis: Okay we are going to tale a short break and next on Live is the hottest author around Shawn Hunter who is going to talk about the book, which is sweeping the nation.
Cory's month dropped in disbelief. Shawn Hunter. Could it be the same Shawn Hunter who was his best friend since the sandbox? It could be possible. Unfortunately, he lost touch with Shawn after he got married. Topanga and him moved to NYC to finish up college. Shawn opted to stay in Philadelphia with his brother Jack. So it could be Shawn but he just doesn't seem like the type to write a book.
Kelly: Okay up next is the hottest author around, Shawn Hunter whose book the Inner Circle broke the record for first weeks sales of a new author. His book is already on a second printing and it has only been released for a month. So here he is Shawn Hunter.
Regis: Welcome Shawn.
Shawn: Thanks it is great to be here.
Cory couldn't believe his eyes but it was his long lost best friend. Kelly: Okay lets get downtown business and answer the question that every lady in America is asking, Shawn are you still single?
Shawn: (blushing) yeah I am. I'm still looking
Regis: Where did you get the inspiration to write such a compelling and original novel?
Shawn: I don't know about original. I just wrote about my life. A great teacher once told me in order to write well one must write what he knows.
Kelly: So all the events in the book really happened to you?
Shawn: Yeah I had a pretty wild childhood
In the middle of the interview AJ threw up all of his carrots. Cory had to miss the rest of the interview in order to change him. He couldn't wait to get the bookstore to get a copy of the book. He couldn't wait to tell Topanga what he found out about their long lost friend. He wanted to call her but he had no idea where she was. The day seemed to drag on he did all his chores as usual. Finally it was three thirty and he heard his brother's car pull into the driveway.
Cory: Finally your home.
Josh: Hey I was going the speed limit and after Topanga's lecture last week about speeding with her kids in the car. I am terrified to go any faster.
Cory: Could you watch the kids while I go do an errand? It should only take me a half hour at the most.
Josh: Okay why not? I have nothing else to do. And besides I am grounded and your house and school are about the only places I can go.
Cory: Thank you. You are a lifesaver. Mom's next store if you need anything. AJ sleeping he should be waking up soon though. And could you make sure that the older kids do their homework before anyone including you watches TV.
Josh: Okay I'll be here.
Cory set off in search of finding the book. It was harder than he thought. He had to go to three different bookstores before he found it. And he was luckily enough to find the last copy. He drove home with such excitement that he could barely contain himself.
Meanwhile, back at the Matthews house Josh was still there babysitting his nephews and nieces. He was sitting at the kitchen table trying to get Jeremy to concentrate on his homework. Josh heard a sound of a car pulling into the driveway. Thank God he thought. Cory is back now he can sit here and make sure that Jeremy does his homework. Besides Josh had his own homework to do. Turner to his dismay assigned a book report and Josh had yet to even read the book and it was due in two days. However the car was not Cory's it was his sister in law's Topanga.
Topanga: Josh what are you doing here
Josh Cor asked me to watch the kids while he did an errand.
Topanga: That's weird. I don't remember him saying that he had to go do anything.
Josh: Now that you mention it. Cory was acting weird even for him. Well, since you are now here. I am going to go home and write a paper. Tell Cor I'll see him tomorrow. Bright and Early.
Topanga: Okay Bye thanks for your help. Oh yeah, tell your mom I said hi.
It figures. The first time in months that she comes home to surprise her husband he isn't even here his brother is. She had a great day until now. She was working on a case for months and today she won it in court. This was the case she needed in order to be recommended for a partner in her firm. It meant more money and more hours. She supposed that it was worth it because she could give her kids and husband everything they wanted.
Finally fifteen minutes after Josh left. Cory returned.
Cory: Hey Josh sorry I took so long but you wont believe what I got.
Topanga: Where were you?
Cory: What are doing home? Where's my brother?
Topanga I came home early to surprise you guys. As for Josh I sent him home. And I am going to ask you this again and I want a straight answer, where were you?
Cory: The bookstore
Topanga: why did you got their?
Cory: This morning when I watching Regis, A new author came on and he sounded interesting so I thought I go out and buy his book.
Topanga: Who is it?
Cory: Shawn Hunter
Topanga: Oh my god Shawn wrote a book. Cory: Yeah it looks that way. HE was on Regis and Kelly this morning the book is supposedly based on his life. He looked so uncomfortable that he looked like he wanted to crawl out of his skin.
Topanga: Wow. Lets look at the book maybe we are mentioned in it.
Cory: I think it is about us considering I read the back of the book and two of the characters are Tomanga and Rory.
Topanga: That's definitely Shawn.
Cory: Hey you got to look at this. It's the dedication page. Hey he mentioned me first.
They went on to read the message that their old friend wrote. They couldn't believe their eyes. While Cory was reading it, his eyes began to tear.
Topanga: What's wrong?
Cory: I just realized how much I missed Shawn. That's all.
Later that night after all five kids went to sleep they stayed up all night and read the book.
Cory: Man, that book brings back memories.
Topanga: Oh yeah it does hey I got a crazy idea. Why don't we look Shawn up and invite him back to Philadelphia for Thanksgiving since it is only a month away?
Cory: That's a great idea
A/N Thanks to all those who review. Next chapter is probably going to be about Feeny and there will be a reunion soon. So keep reviewing and make me feel loved.
