Author's Notes: I know some reviewers felt that Eric was out of character. Honestly at the end of the series, he was a completely different character than he was at the start, without an explanation. So I provided you one, obviously it wasn't very good…but I've always felt Eric was under appreciated anyway. Feeny always said he had the ability to do well, he just didn't try hard enough.
"We're hoooooooooome!" Eric yelled as he threw open the kitchen door.
"Eric, honey." His mom caught him in a hug.
The rest of his travel companions entered after him. Mrs. Matthew's of course, greeted them each with a similar vigor.
"Oh Shawn, I'm so glad you came back. It's just not the same without you."
He looked at the ground and ran his hand through his hair. "Yeah I've been hearing a lot of that lately."
"Mom, where's Morgan? I want to say hello to my favorite sister." Corey chimed in.
He obviously had no idea that had been the question Shawn was dying to ask.
"I think she's still upstairs…" A pot boiled over on the stove, and she was instantly distracted.
"Let me help." Topanga replied, going into full housewife mode.
Eric and Corey went into the living room to greet their father, leaving Shawn standing awkwardly in the kitchen. He tried to help the women with their cooking, but only managed to anger Topanga. He sat down at the kitchen table and thumbed through the paper.
"Shawn, will you do me a favor?" Mrs. Matthews asked.
"Sure." He replied, hoping to be useful.
"Go make sure Morgan's ready for dinner?"
"I'm on it." He said with a smile.
He climbed the steps slowly, not completely sure he was ready to face her. A school girl crush was one thing, but he hadn't seen in her two years. He had no idea how she would treat him, or how he would react to seeing her. He reached her open doorway sooner than he thought. He was shocked by the image that he received.
Morgan had obviously matured. She had curves in places he had never looked before. Her blonde hair was swept off her neck in a sloppy bun. She was curled up in a chair reading Romeo and Juliet. Morgan flipped to another page.
"Are you going to stand there all day, or are you going to say hello?" She questioned without removing her eyes from the book.
"Hey." Shawn supplied lamely.
Morgan rolled her eyes, and dropped the book on her desk. Shawn walked into her room uncomfortably, remembering the last time they were alone in here. He pointed at the book she had just thrown.
"Romeo and Juliet, huh? What do you know about heartbreak?"
"More than you'd think." She responded coldly.
"Ouch." Shawn thought to himself. "Maybe this is about more than a crush."
"Is there a reason you're in my room?" She asked, walking towards him.
"Uh…um…" He stumbled over his words as she got closer.
"What's the matter Shawn?" She inquired with a grin.
"Dinner. That's it. Dinner's ready." He finally remembered, and took a step back from her.
Sorry this is so short, but I wanted to give you an update! Thank you to those who have reviewed, it really means a lot to me.
