Topanga took Cory straight to their bedroom to rest after the surgery. He kept moaning and whining about how much pain he was in and honestly Topanga didn't like it.
"Topy..." He moaned trying to lay down in the bed.
"What Cory?" Topanga sighed going over to him.
"It hurts..." He whimpered clenching his eyes and trying to curl into a ball but failing.
Topanga sighed. She hated seeing Cory in pain. "It's ok baby... Mommy's here." She cooed helping him lay down and placing her hands on his shoulders. Cory smiled a little and tried to relax himself.
"Thank you Topanga, for everything." He whispered looking into her eyes. Topanga smiled and took his hands.
"You're welcome love." she whispered kissing his head.
Back at school Maya was bored out of her mind with Feeny teaching. She continued to try and sleep during class but Mr. Feeny wouldn't allow it.
"Ms. Hart, I thought we already discussed that you aren't allowed to sleep in class!" He scolded.
"But it's boring!" She whined sitting up.
"Does Mr. Matthews let you sleep?" He asked folding his arms.
Maya turned to Riley and smirked. Riley gave her a nervous look back and slumped down into her seat. "Oh, he lets us do lots of things..." she smirked sitting up a little.
"Really?" Mr. Feeny questioned.
"Yep! He lets us talk, sleep, walk out of class even!" She smiled. "Oh and he lets me put my feet up on the desk." She said laying back in her seat and propping her feet up into the wooden desk.
Mr. Feeny was dumbfounded. He couldn't believe Cory let them do these things, well at least most of the things Maya told him.
"Well... That's not how I teach my class, so put your feet down Ms. Hart and pay attention!" He scolded. Maya looked annoyed and rolled her eyes. Maya looked toward Riley for help but all she did was shrug and turn back to the board.
When the bell rang Riley tried to hurry out of class. She knew Lucas wanted to talk to her and try and mend their relationship which she didn't want to do at the moment.
"Riley!" Lucas called out, trying to get her to stop.
Riley sighed and knew she'd have to talk to him at some point. "What is it Lucas..." She said clutching her books close to her body and love ooking the other direction.
"We have to talk." He sighed.
"There isn't anything to talk about Lucas, I asked if I was your girlfriend and you just stood there!" She said looking at him and giving him a nasty look.
"Riley, please I have a good explanation for why I didn't say you were!" He said hoping she'd understand.
"I don't want your excuses Lucas..." She mumbled starting to walk off.
"I didn't say you were because I didn't think someone as amazing as you would take me back!"
Riley stopped and turned around slowly to face him. Everyone in the hallway was watching.
"What?" She asked moving to him.
"Yeah, Riley you're the most amazing girl I've ever met and the fact that I lost you was the worst thing that's ever happened to me. I love you Riley Matthews, there I said it... I just didn't know how before." He cooed. A huge smile formed on Riley's and she ran up to hug him.
"Does his mean you take me back?" Lucas smiled hugging her tightly. Riley nodded her head and smiled. She snuggled her head into his chest and held him close.
"I love you too Lucas." She whispered. The whole hallway clapped and cheered, including Maya.
Maya's smile faded as she looked at Farkle cheering for their best friends. She knew she had to tell him the truth about how she felt.
Cory and Topanga were asleep in one another arms. Topanga's head on his chest and his arm around her waist. They were sleeping peacefully until they heard a door slam and two teenage girls talking loudly and laughing come in.
Cory groaned as Topanga sat up. "Don't leave me..." He pleaded giving her his puppy lip. Topanga sighed and leaned over to kiss him gently.
"I'll be right back honey." She whispered getting out of bed. Cory sighed and laid back down.
She came downstairs to find them looking through cabinets for food. "Did you guys buy more Doritos or no?" Maya asked slamming cabinets with Riley.
"No and girls please be quieter he's trying to sleep..." Topanga said softly point to the hall where their bedroom was located.
"Oh..." Riley whispered. She couldn't stop smiling and bouncing around though.
"Ok what's up with her?" Topanga asked sitting down at the table.
"She and Ranger Rick got back together." Maya sighed.
"Oh and how did this happen?" Topanga asked.
"He told me he loved me mom!" Riley smiled from ear to ear. "So we got back together!"
Topanga smiled and looked down remember how to be 14 and in love. She smiled to herself remembering that time she'd said "I love you" the first time to Cory. He gave her that jean jacket that they buried in the time capsule.
"I'm glad you're happy baby." She smiled giving Riley a hug.
"Me too, now come on Maya we have homework to do!" Riley said grabbing her arm.
"But I hate homework!" Maya whined stomping up the stairs. Topanga giggled and headed back to their bedroom to find Cory asleep. He was cuddling Topanga's pillow. She smiled and headed over to the bed, Topanga placed gentle kissed across his forehead and curly head. He smiled in his sleep as she did that.
Topanga blew him a few more kisses before walking out the room to prepare dinner.
Over the next couple of days Cory had gotten better and was able to return to school Monday. It was Friday morning and he was walking around and doing things just not as fast as normal. Harper was coming home today and Topanga was so excited to see her little girl again.
"Good morning!" Riley cheered coming into the kitchen.
Cory and Topanga gave her a weird stare. "Why are you so happy this morning?" Cory asked sipping his coffee and raising an eyebrow.
"Oh well Lucas is taking me out on a date tonight!"
Cory rolled his eyes and Topanga smacked his shoulder. "Have fun honey." Topanga smiled as Riley got up from the table.
"Thanks mom." She smiled going to get her bags.
"Is Maya not coming today?" Cory asked as she headed for the door.
"Yeah she said she didn't feel well." Riley smiled grabbing her coat and skipping out the door.
Cory and Topanga turned to each other and gave a look and that's when they heard a crashing noise coming from upstairs.
Topanga rushed upstairs to find Maya on the floor in Riley's bedroom. "Maya, what are you doing?" Topanga asked.
"Umm... Looking for Riley..." She said unsure of herself.
"Uh huh." Topanga said walking toward her. "Well Riley said you were gonna be home sick today."
Maya sighed. "Ok I'm not sick I had to skip school." She mumbled sitting down at the bag window.
"And if you were skipping then why did you come here?"
"Because, I needed the bay window to help me think because I can't go to school because of Farkle. I feel guilty because I haven't told him the truth about how I felt." Maya sighed leaning her head into Topangas shoulder.
"I see, Maya honey you can't avoid your problems." Topanga said.
"I know... But please let me stay because that Feeny teacher is so mean and boring!" Maya sighed. Topanga laughed and hugged Maya.
