A Blast
From Shawn's
Past
Disclaimer: Yeah, I know, its been a long while since I posted anything for BMW/GMW and I actually got this idea back during the high point of the GMW craze but never got around to doing anything with it until now.
Summary: Shawn gets an unexpected reminder from his past.
"Hey, Mr. Feeny! Sorry I'm late! Traffic was bad!" Declared Shawn Hunter as he came down the steps to the hang out known as 'Topanga's'.
The elderly Mr. Feeny looked towards the young man with a kind smile at him. "Quite alright, Mr. Hunter, quite alright."
"So what's going on? Your message seemed pretty urgent." Worried Shawn as he sat across from the beloved figure.
Mr. Feeny frowned and the Photographer couldn't help but feel even more worried at the expression. "I've recently come into some information that relates to you, Mr. Hunter. Information I'm not quite sure how you or your new family are going to handle."
"I… How bad is it?"
"Do you remember a young lady by the name of Sherri from your days in High School?"
Shawn frowned at that as he hadn't expected that while trying to remember that name. "She enlisted you to join the Centre." Helped the older man.
Causing the younger's eyes to widen. "OH! Yeah, I, wow… Haven't thought of her or that place in a long time." He said with a shake of the head.
He hadn't really wanted too either given that had been something of a dark period in his life around then. Mr. Feeny smiled at him in understanding as he all too easily knew why the young man wouldn't have given that period of his life much thought. It'd be then that a young woman in a yellow sundress and her hair in a simple braid would come out of Topanga's in a nervous fashion and call out Mr. Feeny. Who stood up to greet the young lady while Shawn was ever more curious. "Shawn, I'd like you to meet Rebecca."
"Hello!" Waved the Photographer while something about the girl seemed very familiar to him.
She shyly waved back at him with a small smile. "Is this someone you're trying to get away from the Centre?"
"Sort of… You see, it turns out this is Sherri's daughter." Informed the older man much to Shawn's surprise.
"Oh, wow. I wasn't expecting that. How is she?"
"With God now." Was all the girl sadly said and stunning Shawn a great deal.
"Oh, I am so, so sorry." He told her softly and she gave him a grateful smile as Mr. Feeny watched on.
"And here comes the rub, so to speak, Mr. Hunter… As it appears you are young Rebecca's father."
This rocked Shawn horribly as he sat where he was. "I'm, I'm sorry but did you say what I think you just said!?"
Mr. Feeny gave him a sad smile as the girl looked on in a nervous fashion. "I did indeed, Mr. Hunter. I did indeed."
Author's Notes: I'm glad I finally did this. I know it wasn't exactly shown that he and Sherri did anything but given how notorious Shawn was with girls back in the BMW days until Angela, its not hard to believe that something could've happened with her.
