Disclaimer: I do not own the TV show Boy Meets World. I take absolutely no credit for making up the characters in the original show. I just felt like writing a story about a couple of them, ok? Ok, now that we all understand... **midnight sun**
Forgotten Love
Chapter Seven: Falling In Love With You
The next evening, Cory and Topanga got together again, this time at Topanga's apartment. The doorman buzzed Cory up to her room, and he anxiously climbed the stairs, waiting to tell her about the call he had received. Topanga answered the door after his first knock and beckoned for him to come in.
They sat down on a comfortable loveseat and Cory told his girlfriend about Shawn and Angela's call. "They sounded really suspicious of me, it was a little funny. But I just wanted you to know," he finished.
"That's okay, Cory. What are you so worried about, anyhow?"
"I just didn't want to jinx what we have going now," he smiled sheepishly.
"That's so sweet! But don't worry, I'm not planning on going anywhere," Topanga promised.
"I am." Cory's voice was barely audible.
"What?" Topanga was shocked. 'How can he come here and, right after we start working everything out, just leave?'
"I'm moving," he repeated slowly. "To New York. I want to be with you, Topanga, it's the most important thing to me in the entire world. Five years apart was too many, I want us to work out this time. I want us to be forever." Topanga just smiled at him, tears threatening to fall down her face. "I love you, Topanga. I always have. I was just stupid enough to let you go." He finished his statement, showing his feelings with a kiss.
"I love you too, Cory. For the past five years, I've been wondering why I ever left, why we let that fight come between us for so long," Topanga told him.
"So..." Cory began, "what's for dinner, my lovely chef?"
Topanga smiled at him. Roasted chicken, potatoes, fresh green beans, and something special for dessert." Cory grinned. "Oh, and I have some red wine in the cabinet, if you could get that out for me." They got up to the couch and walked to the kitchen. Topanga finished setting the table as Cory searched for the right cabinet.
In just a couple of minutes, the oven timer rang and Topanga rushed to get the food, wanting it to be perfect. Cory automatically got up to help her. "No no no no, you sit down. I've got everything under control." She grabbed an oven mitt and took the hot plate out of the oven, setting it down on the table. They ate, chatting intermittently while enjoying their meal. After dinner, the couple decided to settle the matter with Shawn and Angela.
Topanga picked up the phone receiver and handed it to Cory, who dialed Shawn's number. "Hello?" Topanga heard Shawn's voice, muffled through the speaker.
"Hey, Shawn, it's Cory."
"Oh, hey Cor, I didn't recognize the number on the Caller ID. Where are you calling from?"
"My girlfriend's apartment," Cory told him. "Here, honey, say hi," Shawn heard Cory say to the mystery woman.
"Hi, Shawn!"
"Topanga?" Shawn sputtered.
A/N: hey, sorry so short, but I hope you liked it anyways... well, I'm gonna be away for three weeks, so I won't be able to update... hopefully I'll get some writing done, but I can't promise anything. Thank you so much to everyone who has reviewed this story so far, I'll get the next chapter up as soon as I can, thanks for being patient with me!
