Thank you bellagia8 for reviewing the last 3 chapters of my story! You give me motivation to update fast! Anyway, I've decided to put Jack in the story to show a brotherly relationship between him and Shawn.

Cory, Topanga, and Amy are still sitting in the hospital while Alan went home to grab some dinner and pick up Morgan from her friend's house. Even though it's a Friday, Cory is finishing up all his homework assignments so he doesn't have to focus on it the rest of the weekend. After he finishes his last assignment, he sighs in relief; as he puts all his books away, he suddenly jumps out of his seat making everyone gasp.

"What is it Cory?" Topanga asks concern

"I completely forgot to tell Jack and Eric about Shawn." Cory answers.

"What! How could you forget to tell Jack that his little brother is in the hospital?" Topanga snaps.

"Sorry I forgot."

"You should be, all this time I was angry at Jack for not being here."

"Anyway, I'm going to go call their house." Cory says getting up when Amy stops him.

"There not home, they went on a road trip to Baltimore."

"What! Why?" Cory wonders shocked.

"They there doing sightseeing for their English class, but I doubt that's why they're there."

"Well do you know if they are back at their hotel?"

"I would assume so, it's almost 7:30."

"Okay, where are they staying at?"

"Holiday INN Express."

"Man, there must be like million hotels with that name in Baltimore."

"Don't worry, I have the hotel's phone number in my purse." Amy says giving him a piece of paper.

"Ok, thanks I'll be right back." Cory announces exiting the room.

He walks down to the nearest payphone and dials the hotel's number; it took only one ring until a front desk lady answers.

"Holiday INN Express, this is Nancy, how can I help you?"

"Hi, my name is Cory Matthews, may I speak to Jack Hunter or Eric Matthews please; they're staying at your hotel."

"Let me check the computer and get back to you."

"Okay."

Meanwhile, Eric and Jack are in their hotel room playing cards. They went on a road trip to Baltimore MD to get away from all the stress of college; Eric told Amy and Alan that it was for a paper for class so they wouldn't stop them. As they are playing cards, their phone rings; "I'll get it!" Eric announces as he runs to the phone and answers, "Hello, Eric Matthews speaking?"

"Hi Mr. Matthews, this is Nancy from the front desk, I got a call from I assume is a relative yours, Cory Matthews asking to speak to you. May I transfer your call to him?"

"Yeah that's fine."

"Okay, hang on one moment."

"Yeah."

Five minutes later.

"Hello?" Cory answers.

"Hey Cory, its Eric."

"Eric! What made you decide to take a road trip without telling me?"

"Sorry, it was a last minute decision because we were getting stressed about college."

"Okay, whatever that's not why I am calling. I need to talk to Jack! It's important."

"Fine, hang on." Eric says and turn towards Jack, "Hey Jack, Cory needs to talk to you."

"Alright," Jack responds as he grabs the phone from Eric.

"Hey Cory"

"Hey Jack, listen I have some terrible news."

"What is it? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but Shawn isn't. He is in the hospital."

"What! What's wrong with him?" Jack asks really worried.

"I'm afraid to say it, but he tried to kill himself."

"What! Why would he try to that?"

"It's a long story, I'll explain it when you get here."

"Sure, we will leave tomorrow first thing in the morning."

"Alright, see you there."

"Bye." Jack says hanging up the phone, turning to Eric, and bursts into tears.

"Oh no! What happened? What's the matter?" Eric wonders hugging Jack.

"S-Shawn, h-he i-is i-in t-the h-hosp-pit-tal." Jack sobs.

"Oh gosh! Is he ok?" Eric asks concerns.

"I-I d-don't k-know, h-he t-tried t-to k-kill h-him-s-self."

"Oh dear, don't worry; he will be fine."

"You really think so?"

"I know so, Shawn is a fighter."

"Yeah your right. But he is my brother Eric. I can't let him die."

"Technically, he's your half-brother."

"Eric!"

"Sorry, look I may not be smart; but I do know that Shawn Patrick Hunter is the strongest person I know. He is not going to die, he is going to fight through this process and get better." Eric explains smiling.

"Thanks man." Jack smiles.

So the rest of night, the guys just packed and got ready for bed. They have a long drive tomorrow."

Review :) Remember, I decided to put Jack into the story.
