THE BEST IS YET TO COME

Chapter 2: Here I am

********

"Angela! Is that really you? It can't be.You're not supposed to be here till another month! Oh my gosh!"

Shawn Hunter led his girlfriend into his shelter and embraced her instantly. He hugged her so tight they couldn't breath, but it didn't matter. They pushed apart a short distance and looked into each other's eyes. Angela drowned in Shawn's deep blues eyes. Their heads drew closer and they fell into the most romantic and passionate kiss anybody they ever had. Angela put her hand on the back of the boy's neck and ran her fingers through his thick soft brown hair. She was definatly melting away in his arms. How could she be apart from him for a whole year.

"I missed you so much, Angela!"

They kissed again lightly.

"I can't believe your actually here. My gosh you're so wet. Do you want to change and take a shower. You're gonna stay here for the remaining night right. Please say yes."

"Here I am. There's no place I'd rather be, Shawn, no place. And yes I want to change and take a shower and then we can talk. Where's the shower? Shawn, Shawn are you ok?"

" Nothing. Just admiring your beauty. And the shower is right over there" Shawn pointed to the right with his index finger. She kissed him softly on his sexy lips and left him standing there as she went into the shower.

"I'm gonna use your towel, ok," She yelled throw the door of the bathroom.

"Sure!" I'm never gonna wash that towel again. He thought to himself.

While Angela was washing herself Shawn was busy calling Cory and Topanga to tell them the great news.

"Hello?" came a feeble familiar voice to Shawn Hunter's ear.

"Cory, hey! I have wonderful news!" was the excited response.

"Shawnie, do you know what time it is? It's 2:30 in the morning for god's sake!"

"Cory, Angela's back from Europe!"

"No way!" the curly-haired boy responded and sat up in his bed wide-eyed waking up his wife, Topanga.

"Cory who's that?" Topanga questioned her husband tiredly.

"Shawn. He says Angela's back from Europe!"

"Ahhhhhhh! Cory give me the phone! Let me talk to him!" Topanga shrieked.

"Shawn? It's me Topanga. Can I talk to her?"

"Um.....she's in the shower. Sorry. Wait! She just got out I'll give her the phone. Just hang on a sec." Angela came into Shawn's one room apartment leaving a steamy bathroom after her hot shower. She was wrapped up in one of her love's towels. Her beautiful black hair, still wet, fell over her shoulders. Her smile lit up the dark room.

She's so hot. Shawn thought to himeslf

"Angela. Topanga's on the phone."

"Yes! I'm gonna talk to my best bud!" - "Cory I'm gonna talk to her. YAY!" she informed her husband while holding her palm over the reciever.

"Topanga? Topanga?!" came a familiar voice over the phone.

"Angela! It's really you. Oh my gosh. I missed you so much. Yeah! That'd be the best. Ok Come over here at 1:00 and we'll go. Sure. That's great! Seven ok? Ok. Ok." While Topanga talked to her best friend Cory was waving his arms back and forth trying to get his wife to say hi to Angela for him. "I'll see you then Angela. Oh yeah, Cory says hi. Buh bye now"

She hung up and stared at Cory.

"You know you didn't have to wave I would of said hi anyway. Just go to sleep. Oh, and we're going shopping at 1:00 and they're both having dinner with us here at seven ok."

"Topanga, now that we're up do u want to um you know?" he snickred waiting for an answer.

"Ohh lala, Cory"

He dragged his wife under the covers and started to kiss her lips letting his tongue slip in her hot mouth. She put her hands on his chest and deepend the kiss pushing their bodies closer and closer together. He reached under her shirt and felt her warm tender skin. He wanted to take off her jersey that she slept in but Topanga stopped him.

"Cory, let's do this some other time. I want to get some rest."

She slid from under the cover and layed her head on the pink cotton pillow. She fell asleep instantly leaving Cory thinking about Angela and Shawn.

-

"Shawn let's talk," She swung one leg on to the bed letting the other dangle over the side.

"Ok," was all Shawn could get out. "You probably want something hot to drink. How 'bout we head to an all day all night working cafe and get some coffee? It's not to far, we could walk," The Hunter boy managed to get out once he pulled himself together.

"Um sure. Let me change into something and we'll go"

In awhile they were both ready to go. Shawn dressed in a some loose jeans and a tight gray long sleeved shirt and to top it all of a leather jacket. Angela was in a loose yellow, long sleeved top, and a jean skirt, and for shoes a pair of high heeled boots.

"Ready, Angela," Shawn questioned as Angela slipped on her second boot.

"Yup, let go!"

Shawn grabbed a black umbrella just in case it rained and led the way to the elevators.

Once on the streets they noticed it was still raining so they both snuggled under the single umbrella made for one.

"Shawn, I'm so glad I'm here. I missed you unbarebly."

"Me too." He set a soft peck on the top of her head.

After walking two blocks they finally reached their destination. They walked in and snuggled up in the furthest booth around the corner. Nobody would see them from the front of the room where the other couple customers were. A business man talking on the phone, an old married couple, and a family that seams to have just reunited after a long time.

"I'll go get us some coffee, ok?"

"Ok. Put some cream in mine."

After the coffee was gotten the couple snuggled closer together, partly for body heat partly but mostly for the feel of the other.

"So. What did you want to tell me?" Shawn made conversation.

"Well, I've decided to stay in New York and go to NYU to get my bachelor's degree in teaching. Then........"

"Whoa, whoa, I thought you wanted to be a writer in high school?"

"Um. I did. But you know I guess I realized how much I loved children and so I want to become a teacher."

"That's great! And I will support you all the way. I promise."

"I'm so glad you like it."

They grabbed each others hands and just stared. Angela got hold of Shawn's collar and kissed him. He returned the kiss and deepend it. After they split apart. Angela broke out in laughter.

"What's so funny?" Shawn asked a bit concerned.

"You have......my cherry lipstick all over your face!"

"Go look at yourself in the bathroom mirror!"

That night they laughed some more, talked, drank coffee, and of course kissed. Sometimes it was just a peck, others it was a long passionate kiss.

At five they were back in Shawn's apartment. The couple decided to get some rest for tomorrow. None of them had any problem with sharing the one queen bed. They made out for about five minutes but then fell asleep in each others arms.
