Shawn was sitting with the Matthews and Katy at Maya's and Riley's high school graduation.
They all cheered loudly for the girls. Shawn got up right after Maya Graduated. Cory got up and followed him.
Shawn was crying in the hallway.
"What's wrong Shawnie?" Cory asked.
"I'm really, really happy," Shawn said.
"That's good right?"
"It's the best thing I've ever felt, the only better days are when we met, and when I adopted Maya."
"You and Maya deserve to be happy. And I'm so glad you are." Cory said patting Shawn's shoulder.
The girls came running up to their dad's
Maya leapt forward and Shawns armed hugged her tightly. Riley spun around pulling her dad with her in the circle. Maya and Riley kissed and then threw their hats in the air as they weren't allowed during the graduation.
Shawn smiled. She was glad Maya got her Topanga, her extraordinary relationship. Katy and her boyfriend came up and embraced Maya. Topanga and Augies both hugged Riley. Some of their other friends came up and they all shirked and jumped smiling. Shawn leaned against the wall. The mood here was starkly different than what he had felt at his own graduation, and he was so unbelievably happy for that.
The Mathews family and the Hunter/Hart families got dinner out and laughed and ate. It was the family they deserved, after such a long road.
