AN I own nothing including Boy Meets World. I am merely a person who has a
little too much time on my hands.
Sorry it took me so long to update. School started up again and I am taking a lot of hours. I had this chapter written and then my computer crashed and it didn't save. Blame my inconsiderate roommate who pulled the plug on my computer so she could plug in her blow dryer.
Thanks to all you guys who reviewed. Thanks a lot it really meant a lot to me
Chapter 5
ENJOY
Shawn: Jon why are we going to Feeny's house for dinner, come on. This is the last thing I want to do tonight. Don't get me wrong I want to see Feeny. But I am just not in the mood for it.
Jon: Sorry man. I made plans with him ages ago. And I forgot about the plans when I called you so I was kinda stuck.
Shawn: Whatever.
A part of Shawn was dreading this night. He wanted to see his old mentor. He really did but seeing him would remind him of what he is missing. Shawn missed the way things were when he was in high school. From now to a normal person his life was perfect. His book was selling millions of copies and he could have any girl he wanted. But that is not what he ever wanted out of life. He wrote because writing soothed him and he couldn't help it if the American found him attractive. What he did miss were his friends, especially Cory. Since the first day they met they were inseparable that is until college. In college Cory got married to the love of his life Topanga. He would do anything for her including move to New York so she could pursue her career. So Cory left Philadelphia and Shawn chose to stay behind. Shawn wanted to go to NYC with them but he couldn't bring him self to do it. He had to be on his own for a while he did not want to live in Cory's shadow forever. Shawn's eyes immediately turned to the house next door to Feeny's. It was the Matthews' home. That house had so many good memories. The Matthew's were Shawn's second family and he was closer to them then he was to his own family. Right then and there, Shawn made a pact with him self that he would go over to there house and ask them for Cory's number.
Jon and Shawn rang the doorbell. They heard a lot of commotion and two boys answered the door.
Josh: Hi, Mr. Turner what are you doing here? I swear it wasn't me who did it.
Jon: What are you talking about Josh? Josh: Nothing. So are you just here to make sure I do my homework? Because I swear that I was going to do it after dinner.
Jon: No your brother invited me for dinner. And you better do your homework no more excuses.
Josh: Man I am going to kill my brother. Be right back.
Ethan: Sorry about that. That boy seems to think with his mouth. I think he would be amazed at some of the things that come out of it. Oh, excuse me. Where are my manners? Come on in. By the way I am Ethan and you are?
Jon: Thanks I am your uncle's teacher.
Shawn: I am Shawn. That guy is your uncle?
Ethan: Yeah my parents got married young and my grandparents were having kids in there late forties. There is like an 18-year age difference between my dad and him.
Shawn: Wow. I didn't realize. I have a feeling that George Feeny doesn't live here anymore.
Ethan: Nope. He lives somewhere in Florida. Hey why don't you guys go into the kitchen I think my dad is in there.
Jon/Shawn: Okay
Enter Kitchen
Ethan: I guess he is not in here. That's my little sister Jamie. Jamie you know where dad is?
Jamie: Yeah Dad breaking up a fight between Jeremy and Brandon. He told me to set the table. Hey Ethan guess what? While you were answering the door, mom called she said she wouldn't be home for dinner tonight.
Ethan: What else is new?
Jamie: Get this she promised me that she would come to my ballet recital tomorrow.
Ethan: Don't hold your breath. She always says that and then some meeting comes up that is more important. If I had a nickel every time Mom broke a promise I be rich.
Jamie: Whatever.
Cory: Hey guys, go wash you hands and dinner will be ready in five minutes. Ethan go round up the rest of your brothers.
Ethan: Okay dad. Your guests are here.
Cory: Mr. Turner I should of known you were here since Josh is actually reading a book. Hey who is with you? Oh my god Shawn Hunter is that really you.
Shawn: Yeah Cor, It's me Shawnie.
The two men hug and then a buzzer went off.
Cory: Oh I better get that. I think my lasagna is done. You guys like lasagna right?
Shawn: Yeah I do. I just can't believe that Cory Matthews is cooking.
Cory: Yeah I cook clean shop. I am a typical househusband.
Shawn: I never would have thought. I always imagined that you were going to be some hot shot business man.
Cory: Yeah that was the plan. But Topanga got pregnant senior year and I had to drop out of school to support us and the new baby, Ethan.
Shawn: wow. So where is Topanga?
Cory: I am guessing that she is at work where is twenty hours of the day. She has a high profile job as a lawyer in a big form she was just made partner.
Josh: Cor are we going to eat anytime this decade?
Cory: Hold your horses Josh. Why don't you put the food on the table but make sure to use the potholders. It is still very hot.
Shawn: I can't believe that. Last time I saw Josh he was still in diapers. And now he is a teenager.
Cory: Yeah and a very obnoxious one. He is staying with me while our parents are out of town helping Morgan out. She just had a baby.
Shawn: Okay you did it. I now feel a million years old.
Cory: Let me get the kids started and you and I can talk while I feed the baby.
Shawn: Okay.
Cory: So how's life treating you? I read your book and it was great.
Shawn: I guess okay. I mean I just got a book published that is a lot of guy's number one goal.
Cory: You don't seem so happy about it.
Shawn: Don't get me wrong but it is a dream come true. I just don't like all this attention. I don't like being in the public eye. And everybody is saying it is a rags to riches story. But I don't know what to do with all the money. The only thing I have come up with is to pay Jack back.
Cory ( laughs): So you finally paid him back. What's he up to anyway?
Shawn: Living the American dream. He married Rachel about five years ago and they have a one-year-old son, Chet. What is Eric up to nowadays?
Cory: He is a teacher of an afterschool program. He helps underprivileged youth in New York.
Shawn: It is nice to see he finally has his life on track.
Cory: I have just one piece of advice for you Shawn do what makes you happy. There has to be something out there that will complete your life.
Shawn: There is something. I just need to find it again.
Cory: What is it?
A/N See I left you on a cliff hanger. Sort of. So stayed tuned to the next chapter. To find out what Shawn really wants in life or who.
Please review. I don't care if it is positive or a flame or whatever. I just want to know what you guys think of the story and any aspects if any that I could improve on. \
Thanks for reading and reviewing.
