Fan Fiction (Forget the other thread and read this one!!!)

[nana2908brazil]

Hello, guys!!! I was reading the other Fan Fiction thread I've published and I realized that I made a mistake...I forgot one or two parts of the original one and it got no sense at all!!! So, I'll start publishing again from Part I, so you can read it and understand it!!!

*********************************************

It's the year of 2006. Six years passed since Cory, Topanga, Shawn and Eric left Philadelphia and moved to New York. Now they are completely adjusted to the city.
This weekend was Joshua's birthday. Everyone - including Morgan who is living with Eric in NY, because she is attending NYU, and Jenniffer who is Shawn's current girlfriend - went back to Philadelphia to celebrate it.

Amy: I'm so happy to have all my children with me today!!!

Alan: Oh, yeah!!! Me too...I miss them a lot!!!

Shawn: Guys!!! I have something to tell you!!! I received an e-mail from Jack yesterday. He and Rachel are comming to NY to spend some time with us!!!

Eric: Great!!! I miss them a lot!!! They have always been and always will be my best friends in the world!!! When will they arrive here?

Shawn: Next weekend.

Eric: Great!!!

On sunday night, they all went back to NY.

*********************************************

Cory wouldn't even imagine the news Topanga had to tell him...

Topanga: Cory, I have something to tell you...

Cory: What is it?

Topanga: I'm late...I think that finally we will have a baby.

Cory: OMG, are you sure? Since when do you know it? Why didn't you tell me?

Topanga: Since friday. But I didn't want to tell it to you at your Parents house. I'm not sure yet, and if it won't, I would disapoint everyone. Tomorrow I'm going to see a Doctor to confirm, or not, my suspicious...

Cory: You can't imagine how happy I am with this news!!!

Topanga: I know...I know...Would you like to go to the Doc. with me?

Cory: Sure!!! I will!!!

Topanga: Good night, Cory.

Cory: Good night, Topanga.

And then, he kissed her belly.

Cory: Good night, little baby! I don't know if you're really there, but I want to let you know that I already love you!!!

Tears were rolling from Cory's and Topanga's eyes when he said that.

*********************************************
Eric: Jack and Rachel are going back. Isn't it wonderful?

Morgan: I guess it is!!! I haven't seen you this happy for a long time...

Eric: What do you mean?

Morgan: You are not the same guy since they left. You used to be that funny guy, the jokerman and then you became too serious. I miss the old Eric...

Eric: Listen, Morgan, I finally grew up. That's the way life goes...

Morgan: But I don't think you have to be tough about everything!!! Well, I guess this conversation will take us nowhere. I'm going to bed, because I'm really tired and I have class tomorrow morning. Good night, Eric! Think about the things I said to you...

Eric: Good night, Sis...

*********************************************
At Shawn's place, Jenniffer was already sleeping, and Shawn turned the computer on to check his mailbox. He couldn't hardly believe when he read the following message:

" Dear Shawn.

OMG, I can't believe I finally found you!
I was reading a magazine the other day and I've seen a picture of you in that. You became a very respected advertiser, uh?Congrats...
Then, it was just look for you at the internet and I finally got your e-mail!!!
I can't believe how we lost contact all these years I've spent in Europe. We promised to write to each other every single day but the promise has been broken.
I'm not blaming you, because I know you moved to New York and you probably have a new life (and this includes a new girlfriend).
But life tore us apart...unfortunately.
I'm not expecting your answer, because I know that you probably blame me for our distance...but I want to let you know that I never forgot you! Never!
I'm going back to USA, and I was thinking if we could meet sometime. If you want to, you already have my e-mail. But I will understand if you don't want to...

Love
Angela".

After reading that, he went to bed, but he couldn't sleep at all...

[nana2908brazil]

The next day, after work, Topanga and Cory went to see the Doctor. Their suspicious were confirmed. Topanga was really pregnant.

Cory: Let's celebrate it!!! Call Eric, Morgan, Shawn and Jenniffer!!!

Topanga: Ok!!! I'll call them!!!

She called the guys and about an hour later they were all at Cory and Topanga's.

Morgan: I'm really curious!!! What do you have to tell us?

Topanga: Guys, this afternoon, me and Cory confirmed something that will change our lives forever...

Eric: What is it? Do you want to kill me of curiosity? Go right the worth thing!!!

Topanga: Ok...ok!!! Guys...I'm pregnant!!!

Morgan and Eric: We're going to have a nephew!!! OMG!!! OMG!!! Congratulations!!!

Morgan and Eric went to hug their brother Cory. Shawn and Jenniffer embraced Topanga.

Jenniffer: Congratulations, Mommy!!!

Topanga: Thanks, Jen!!!

They ordered some food and stayed there for a few hours, celebrating. There was a time when Shawn called Cory to talk in privacy.

Shawn: You won't believe what happened.

Cory: I know!!! I know!!! I'm going to be a father!!! Isn't it wonderful

Shawn: It is! But that's not what I'm talking about!!! I've got an e-mail from Angela yesterday.

Cory: What

Shawn: Shhhhh...Jenniffer doesn't know it!!!

Cory: OMG, Shawn!!! That's great!!! How is she doing?

Shawn: She's moving back to the US and she wants to meet me...And I don't think this is a great thing. I have Jen now, don't you remember?

Cory: But you and Angela can be just friends, don't you?

Shawn: I don't know, Cory. What I had with Angela was really intense. I guess I'm not over her yet. I'm afraid of meeting her, find out that I'm still in love with her and lose all the good things I have with Jenniffer. Do you understand me?

Cory: Yes, I do. Until you decide what to do, your secret is safe with me.

Shawn: Thanks, Cory!

Cory: So, let's forget about it and start preparing for your brother's arrival...

Shawn: That's the right thing to do...

*********************************************
On saturday afternoon, Cory, Topanga, Shawn, Jenniffer and Eric went to the grocery to buy things for the dinner they would offer to Jack and Rachel. Morgan stayed at Cory's cooking for the dinner. Suddenly, the bell rang.

Morgan: I'm coming!!!

She opened the door and there was Jack.

Jack: I guess it's the wrong place, sorry!

Morgan: No, no, come in, Jack! It's good to see you!!! Where's Rachel?

Jack: She went to a hotel. She said she didn't want to bother anyone. But she'll be here later for dinner.

Morgan: So, you are not with her? But you're going to stay with Eric and me, aren't you?

Jack: Oh,no, no!!! We are just friends! Are you Eric's girlfriend, wife, or something?

Morgan: Jack!!! Aren't you recognizing me? I'm Morgan, Eric and Cory's sister!

Jack: OMG!!! Morgan!!! You grew up!!! Last time I saw you, you were just a little girl!!! Why are you here in NY?

Morgan: I'm attending NYU, that's why I'm living with Eric.

Jack: Wow!!! That's great!!!

They sat down on the couch and started talking. Jack started thinking how much Morgan was grown and what a beautiful girl she had become...

[nana2908brazil]

Jack and Morgan were talking when Cory, Topanga, Eric, Shawn and Jenniffer arrived.

Eric: Jack!!! OMG!!! It's been a long, pal!!! I missed you!!!

Jack: I missed you too!!! Come on, give me a hug!!!

After that, Jack embraced all the guys. Shawn introduced his girlfriend, Jen to his brother.

Eric: So, Jack, where's Rach?

Jack: Oh...as I told Morgan before, she didn't want to bother anyone so she went to a hotel.

Topanga: Bother us? How could she think that? And, Jack, I thought that you were together...

Jack: Well, that's what she said. And no, we are not together. After spending all this time together around the world we became brother and sister...

Topanga: Oh, I see...

Jack: She will be here for dinner.

They were talking when the bell rang.

Eric: That must be Rachel!!! Let me open the door!!!

He opened the door and there she was...

Eric: Rach!!! OMG!!! I missed you so much!!!

Rachel: Me too, Eric!!!

They stood there, embraced for a long time...

Topanga: Eric, would you bother to borrow Rachel? We'd like to hug her too!!!

Eric: Sorry, guys...

They had a great time at dinner. Jack and Rachel told many of their adventures around the world. Topanga told them that she was pregnant. Everybody was really happy.

Jack: Guys, I'm sorry, but I'm really tired. Eric, can I stay at your place?

Eric: Sure!!! I would be upset if you wouldn't.

Morgan: Me too...Eric, why don't you take him to rest? I'll stay here and help Topanga with the dish. I'll be home soon ok?

Eric: That's a good idea. Shall we go, Jack?

Jack: Yes. Thanks, guys, for the wonderful dinner...

Topanga: You're welcome!!!

*********************************************
On wednesday, Topanga, Rachel and Jenniffer went to pick up Morgan at College and then they'd go shopping.

Morgan: But, guys, I have to go work!!!

Topanga: Don't worry about it!!! I called there and said you were sick.

Morgan: OMG!!! A pregnant woman can be dangerous...

Girls: Hahahahahaha!!!

Rachel and Jenniffer were trying some outfits while Topanga and Moragn were talking.

Topanga: So...What's going on between you and Jack?

Morgan: Me and Jack? What are you talking about?

Topanga: Do you think I'm a fool? I saw the way you were looking at him on saturday dinner...And the way he's been looking at you since he arrived here.

Morgan: I was just admired with all those stories he was telling!!! And maybe he's admired because when he left I was a little girl and now I'm not a little girl anymore...

Topanga: Yeah, right!!! Don't try to lie to a pregnant woman...We know everything!!!

Morgan: Jack is a handsome man, this I can't lie. But it doesn't mean that I have any kind of feelings for him. Now let's change the subject, the girls are coming...

Topanga: Ok, but don't think you can make a fool of me!!!

Rachel: What do you think of this dress?

Morgan and Topanga: Gorgeous!!!

*********************************************
Later, everyone at Eric's were already in their bedrooms.
Morgan couldn't sleep, so she went to the kitchen for a glass of water. Jack was already there...

Jack: Hey, what's up?

Morgan: I can't sleep. You?

Jack: Me too...

Morgan: The worst thing is that I have a class early morning tomorrow.

Jack: Uh...That's bad!!! You know, Morgan, I never thought that someday we would be talking like we are talking now. I guess I have always thought of you as Eric's little sister, and never thought you would grow up someday.

Morgan (A little upset): Yeah...I know...You will always see me as Eric's little sister, as the little girl you once knew. Well, I had my glass of water. I'm going back to bed now...Good night, Jack.

She was turning around when Jack got her by her arm and kissed her. It was a long kiss.

Jack: Good night, Morgan.

While she was making her way to her bedroom she had a smile stretched from ear to ear...

[nana2908brazil]

Cory and Topanga were already sleeping when suddenly she woke up in the middle of the night.

Topanga: Cory...

But Cory didn't move...

Topanga: CORY!!!

Cory: Ahn...what do you want, Topanga? It's 3 am!!!

Topanga: I'm wishing something...But I don't know what it is...

Cory: OMG!!! I can't believe it!!! Give me a break, Topanga!!! You wake me up in the middle of the night to say that you want something but you don't know what it is? I'll go back to sleep...

Topanga: Wait!!! I know what it is!!! I want green mango with salt!!!

Cory: Green mango? Are you out of your mind? Where will I find this?

Topanga: But I want it!!!

Cory: Ok...Ok...Tomorrow after work I'll go looking for it.

Topanga: I WANT IT NOW!!!

Then he got dressed and went looking for green mangos for his wife. He just got back home when the sun was already rising ahead.

Cory: Here it is!!! Your mangos...

Topanga: Thanks, Cory, but I don't want it anymore...

Cory: AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
*********************************************
Morgan works in a Starbucks. She was already there when Topanga shown up.

Morgan: Hey!!!

Topanga: Hey, Morgan!!! What's up?

Morgan: I'm ok...So...Why are you visiting me?

Topanga: Mmmm...I was walking on the street and suddenly I had the enormous wish of eating a brownie.

Morgan: Oh!!! The famous pregnancy wishes...I'll get a brownie to you.

Topanga: Thanks!!!

Morgan: Here it is!!! Topanga, can I go to your house after work? I need to tell you something...

Topanga: Sure!!! But what is it?

Morgan: I'll tell you later. Will Cory be there?

Topanga: No. He'll go out with Shawn today.

Morgan: Great!!! Because what I want to tell you is a secret. I don't want you to tell it to Cory, ok?

Topanga: Ok!!! Your secret will be safe with me, but don't take much long to stop by...I'm starting getting really curious!!!

Morgan: Right!!!
*********************************************
Later, Morgan went to Topanga's.

Topanga: Hey!!! I was waiting for you!!! The curiosty was almost killing me!!! You can't do that with a pregnant woman!!!

Morgan: Haha...Let's sit down on the couch and I'll tell you.

Then, Morgan told what happened last night between her and Jack.

Topanga: I knew it!!! I knew it!!! So...Did you like his kiss?

Morgan: Yes!!! It was awesome!!! But, listen, I don't want to be much excited about it because I don't know what are his real intentions with me.

Topanga: You're right, girl!!! Don't get much involved...Just let things roll and see what happens.

Morgan: That's what I'm gonna do. When I get home now, I will act like nothing happened.

Topanga: That's right. Now go home and act the way you said to me.

Morgan: Thanks for letting me share my secret with you!!! Cya!!!

Topanga: You're welcome!!! Cya.
*********************************************
The phone was ringing when Shawn got home.

Shawn: Hello.

Jenniffer: Hi, dear!

Shawn: Oh, it's you, Jen.

Jenniffer: Why? Who did you think it was?

Shawn: No...no one.

Jenniffer: Yeah, right!!! You know, Shawn you've been acting strange with me for a while. What's happening?

Shawn: Nothing's happening!!! I'm still the same!!!

Jenniffer: Right, Shawn. I'll hang up now, and don't call me back. Just look for me when the "real you" go back. Bye!!!

Shawn: JEN!!! JEN!!! Great..."The real me"....What a terrible excuse to break up!!!

Then, Shawn got out and spent the whole night walking, stopping at bars, drinking, and when he got home, he was really drunk. It was early morning.

Shawn: OMG!!! I'm so drunk that I can't even open my house door.

He was there, trying to open the door when he heard a voice behind him saying "Let me help you, Shawn".
He looked behind and got static.

Shawn: A-A-A-Angela?

[nana2908brazil]

Shawn couldn't believe it. Was he having a vision?

Angela: Yes, that's me. You're not this drunk to starting having visions...

She got the keys from his hands and opened the door.

Angela: Come on. I'll help you get to your apartment.

Shawn: I don't need any help. Specially YOUR help!!!

Angela: Yeah, right!

Then she put his right arm around her neck and carried him until his apartment door. She got inside there and put him on his bed.

Angela: Now, get some sleep!!!

Shawn: But...I don't want to!!!

As he said that he fell asleep.

*********************************************
It was about 3 pm when Shawn woke up. He went to the kitchen and there was Angela.

Angela: I've made black coffee for you...

Shawn: So...I wasn't dreaming. You are really here. But the question is: how you got here?

Angela: I know I should have waited for your answer, but deep inside of me I knew that you would never answer me!!! So, when I got here in NY, the first thing I've done was get your address.

Shawn: Yes, you were right, I would never answer your e-mail.

Angela: Why?

Shawn: Because you've hurt me, and you know that. Do you have any idea of how I felt that day when I opened my mailbox and there wasn't any message of you there?

Angela: YES!!! The same way I felt when I opened my mailbox the next day and there wasn't any message telling "What happened? I missed you...Blah, blah, blah". Now it sounds like a foolish thing, but that day, I needed that.

Shawn: You know what? This conversation will take us nowhere. Thanks for taking care of me today but I think you should leave now. My girlfriend can arrive here any moment...

Angela: Oh, sure!!! Your girlfriend...That's ok!!! But, before I leave, can you please give me Cory and Topanga's number?

Shawn wrote their number in a piece of paper and gave her.

Shawn: Here it is.

Angela: Thanks. Bye...

For a second, Shawn thought about not let her leave, but then he hesitated. He was really hurt and he wouldn't forgive her that easy.

*********************************************
When Morgan left work it was raining.

Morgan: Great!!! It's raining and I don't have any raincoat or even an umbrella!!!

So, she went home running really fast. When she got at the building frontdoor, Jack was there.

Morgan: OMG!!! Jack, you are really wet!!! Why didn't you get into the building?

Jack: Because there was no one home and I don't have the keys! And, what are you saying? You are wet too...

They laughed.

Morgan: Eric and me, we are two dumbs!!! We should have given you a copy of the keys...But, since you are wet and I am wet too why don't we go walk together in the rain?

Jack: That's a really good idea...

They were already walking for a while but they didn't say a word to each other. Then, Jack broke the silence between them.

Jack: So...Morgan...What happened the other night...

Morgan: I know...It was just an impulse...You didn't plan to kiss me and you will never do it again, am I right?

Jack: No!!! No!!! You are completely wrong!!! I wanted to talk about this with you since the day it happened, but you're acting like nothing happened...

Morgan: I don't get your point...

Jack: I WANTED to kiss you. Since you opened the door to me when I got here that was all I wanted to do!!!

Morgan: But now you already did and you don't want it anymore, uh?

Jack: Could you shut up?

He got her in his arms and they kissed.

Morgan: So, you want to kiss me more, uh??

Jack (Smiling): Yes...

And they kissed again.

Morgan: Well, now that we already kissed a lot of times, why don't we go home and put on some dry clothes?

Jack: Ok...Let's go.

Before they enter the apartment, they kissed again.

Morgan: I don't want Eric to know it yet.

Jack: Me neither.

Morgan: So, let's go back to act as if never happened.

Jack: It's gonna be hard, but I'll try.

They laughed and opened the door. Eric was already there.

*********************************************
Topanga and Cory were having dinner when the bell rang.

Cory: I'll get it!!!

He couldn't believe who was in front of him.

Cory: Angela? OMG!!! How did you find us?

Topanga: Angela? What a surprise!!!

They embraced her.

Cory: Does Shawn know that you are here?

Angela: More than you can imagine...

Cory: How?

Angela told everything that had happened that day.

Cory: Shawn was drunk? But he wasn't when I left him at his house.

Angela: Well, maybe something happened then.

They were talking when the bell rang again. It was Jenniffer. She was crying.

Jenniffer: Shawn just broke up with me!!!

[nana2908brazil]

Topanga: What? How did it happen?

She knew how, but she act like she didn’t.

Jenniffer: I don’t know…We fought yesterday on the phone, but we always have fights like that and forgive each other the next day, but things hasn’t gone this way today…When I came to see him tonight he said he didn’t want to see me anymore…

Topanga: Oh, that’s bad, Jen, but I’m afraid I can do nothing for you…

Jenniffer: I know…OMG!!! I’m sorry. I came here, started bothering you with my problems and didn’t even realize that you have visit.

Angela: Oh, don’t worry about me. You need a friend now and that’s why you came here…

Jenniffer: Thanks…

Topanga: Let me introduce you two. Jenniffer, this is my long time friend Angela. She was living in Europe and now she came back to the US. Angela, this is Jen, Shawn’s girlfriend.

Jenniffer: Ex girlfriend, you mean. It’s nice to meet you. Wait…Angela? From Europe? I can’t believe it!!! Now I’m understanding everything!!! OMG!!!

She ran out crying a lot…

Angela: Sorry, Topanga…I didn’t mean to cause you trouble…

Topanga: Oh, don’t bother!!! It’s between her and Shawn.

But Angela kept feeling like it was her fault.

*********************************************
Morgan was already on bed, but she wasn’t sleeping yet. Eric knocked on her door.

Eric: Morgan? Are you awake?

Morgan: Yes, Eric. Come in.

Eric: I wanted to talk to you.

For a moment, Morgan was a little frightned. Did Eric found out what was happening between her and Jack?

Morgan: About what, Bro?

Eric: I don’t know, just talk. It’s been a while since our last talk about nothing, uh?

Morgan got reliefed.

Morgan: You don’t know how much I missed this…So, Eric, I need to ask you. What is the reason of your sudden happiness?

Eric: I think it’s because Jack and Rachel are here. You don’t know how much I missed them all this time. Specially when…Well…You know when.
Morgan: Yes, I know, you don’t need to say this again to me because I know how hard it was for you. But, I think there’s something else…And this “something else” may have a name…

Eric: I don’t know, Morgan. I really don’t know if I’m in love wth someone.

Morgan: Well, if you don’t know it means that there is someone in your life…

Eric: I guess it is, but I don’t want to be full of hope…

Morgan: I see…Why don’t you tell her how you feel?

Eric: Because I don’t know if she will understand…Well…How about you? I’ve been seeing your eyes shining lately. Does this shine have a name?

Morgan: Yes, it has, but I won’t tell you…Yet.

Eric: Why? You can trust me, Sis!!!

Morgan: I know!!! But I’m not sure how does he feel about me.

Eric: So, when you are sure, you’ll tell me. Won’t you?

Morgan: Be sure I will…

Eric: Thanks for trusting me, Sis. Well, now I’m going to sleep. I got to work tomorrow. Good night, Sis.

Morgan: Good night, Eric.

*********************************************
The next day, at work, Eric called Rachel.

Eric: Hey, Rach!!!

Rachel: Hey, Eric!!! What’s up?

Eric: I was just wondering…What’s your plans for tonight?

Rachel: I have nothing planned, why?

Eric: Do you want to have dinner with me?

Rachel: You mean…Like a date?

Eric: No…No…I mean like two old friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time and have a lot of things to talk!!!

Rachel: Ok!!! What time will you pick me up?

Eric: At 8.

Rachel: Ok…I’ll be waiting for you…

*********************************************

The dinner between Eric and Rachel was great. They stood there talking about things that happened with them when they were apart and remembering the old times.
Then, Eric was taking Rachel to her hotel.

Eric: So, Rach, are you enjoying being here with us?

Rachel: Of course I am!!! I missed you guys all this time I’ve spent away from you!!!

Eric: Are you considering being here for good?

Rachel: I don’t know, Eric. And that’s the most exciting, and scary, thing about my life…Not knowing what I’m gonna do next.

Eric: So…Are you saying that there’s a possibility for you staying here with us?

Rachel: Yes, there is. But I don’t know if I’ll be able to leave my mission. To save a very sick child is one of the most exciting things I’ve ever done in my whole life, Eric!!!

Eric: I can imagine. But, will you leave us again? We missed you, Rach.

Rachel: I know, but you all have been lived your lives without me, and you’re going to miss me a lot, but you won’t die because of me!!!

Eric: But, Jack was telling me that he may stay here with us. He will start looking for a job and an apartment next week.

Rachel: So, what? I’m not attached to him…We are just friends and that’s all. He’s free to move on with his life and I have nothing to do with that. I guess I’ll just stay here if I have a very important reason to do it.

Eric: And you don’t have it now…

Rachel: No, I don’t. Well, here we are. This is my hotel. I have to go now. Good night, Eric.

Eric: Good night, Rach.

Eric was really upset with the things Rachel had just said to him. At the same time, he knew that maybe he could have the power to make her stay, he just had to tell her how he feels. But he was scary of doing this. What if she doesn’t feel the same? And he came to the conclusion that he wasn’t ready yet to tell Rachel his feelings about her.

[nana2908brazil]

On Monday morning, Morgan was at College having class. At the break, she was talking to one of her friends, Katie, who also works with her.

Katie: Did I tell you that me and my roomate are going to make a party at our apartment next Friday?

Morgan: No, you didn’t.

Katie: Well, maybe that’s because we decided this last weekend. Hehe…I want you to go, but there’s a condition.

Morgan: And what is it?

Katie: You have to be with a date. Will you have one?

Morgan immediately thought about Jack.

Morgan: I think I will, but I’m not sure yet…

Katie: Well…If you don’t…Do you know that friend of my boyfriend? His name’s Billy.

Morgan: I think I do. Why?

Katie: Because he’s interested in you. Maybe you should go to the party with him…

Morgan: I don’t know, Katie, but I think I’ll take other guy there.

Katie: And who’s him? Is he from here?

Morgan: No…You don’t know him…Yet!!! But maybe you will, really soon!!!

*********************************************
Later, Morgan and Katie were working when Jack shown up.

Jack: Morgan? Hey, what a surprise!!! You never told me you work here!!!

Morgan: I guess I forgot, hehe…But…What will you want?

Jack: I’ll want a capuccino, a brownie and the shop assistant that’s serving me.

Morgan (Smiling): Sorry, but the shop assistant is not for sale…

Jack: Oh, really? That’s sad…

Morgan (Whispering): But maybe we can negociate it later…

They laughed.

Morgan: I’ll bring your cappucino and your brownie.

Katie was near Morgan when Jack said that to her.

Katie: So…Who’s the hottie?

Morgan: Jack, my older brother’s best friend and, hopefully, my future boyfriend.

Katie: I can’t believe it!!! Is it him that you’re gonna take to my party next Friday?

Morgan: Yes, if he accept to go…

Katie: What a fool I am…Expecting you to leave this hot guy to go out with Billy…DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT!!!

They laughed.

Morgan: But, I don’t know what’s really going on between us, Katie. I mean, we made out a couple of times, but I don’t know how he feels about me…

Katie: Don’t worry about it, girl!!! Just enjoy it!!! Hehe…

Morgan: I wish I could but I think I’m falling in love with him…And there’s another thing: Eric doesn’t know that I’m going out with his best friend and I don’t know how will he react about this!!!

Katie: Think less…Act more!!! Hahaha…

Manager: Girls, the costumers are waiting!!!

Morgan and Katie: Oooopsss…Hahaha!!!

*********************************************
Later, when Morgan came home, Eric wasn't there yet, just Jack.

Morgan: Hey, you…

Jack: Hey!!! I’m glad you arrived before Eric. I need to talk to you.

Morgan: Me too…But, you tell me what you have to tell me first.

Jack: Ok. I haven’t mentinoned this to you yet because nothing was right, but now it is…

Morgan: And…What is it? Don’t let me be curious!!!

Jack: Ok…Ok…Do you know why I was near by the place you work this afternoon? Because I had an appointment with some business men. And guess what?

Morgan: What?

Jack: I got a job!!! I’ll start next Monday!!!

Morgan: OMG!!! OMG!!! This is great, Jack!!!

And she kissed him.

Jack: Do you know what it means, Morgan?

Morgan: No…

Jack: It means that I’ll stay here in NY forever. I won’t go away.

Morgan: Wow!!! I haven’t seen things by this point!!! This is great!!! Great!!!

Jack: So…What did you have to tell me?

Morgan: Have you seen that girl that works with me at the coffee shop?

Jack: Yes.

Morgan: So…She will be having a party next Friday, and I was wondering…Would you like to go with me?

Jack: Yes, I would, but we have two problems. First, don’t you think I’m too old for a College party? And second, what are we going to say to Eric, so we can go out together?

Morgan: First, I don’t think you are too old or I wouldn’t have asked for you to come with me. But if it’s just an excuse for not going, that’s ok, there’s a friend of Katie’s who wants to go with me…

Jack: NO!!! NO!!! I’ll go with you!!! But, what are we going to say to Eric?

Morgan: I have a plan, you’ll have to trust me…I’ll make my little girl portion come out…

Jack: Hahaha…This I want to see…

They were talking when Eric arrived.

Eric: Hey, guys!!! Any news?

Morgan: Hey, Eric? I think Jack has one…

Eric: And what is it?

Jack: I got a job!!! I’ll start next Monday.

Eric: JACK!!! This is great!!! Congratulations!!!

Then, they were having dinner. Jack was looking at Morgan waiting to see what she would do to take him to the party.

Morgan: Eric, you don’t know what happened…

Eric: What?

Morgan: Do you know that friend of mine, Katie?

Eric: Yes…

Morgan: So…She will have a party at her apartment next Friday, but, to get in, I’ll have to be with a date, BUT I DON’T HAVE A DATE!!!

Eric: Mmmm…That’s bad…I can’t go with you because I’m your brother…Mmmm…WAIT!!! I had an idea!!! Why don’t you take Jack?

Morgan: If he wants to go with me…Do you want Jack?

Jack smiled. Morgan’s plan worked.

Jack: Yes, I want. Maybe this way I can get to know some College chicks…Hehe…

Eric and Morgan laughed, but Morgan just pretended she has found Jack’s comment funny.

*********************************************
Later, at Cory and Topanga’s…

Topanga: Cory, do you think I’ve already got fat?

Cory: Topanga, you’re just pregnant for a month!!! How can you be fat?

Topanga: But I think I’m already fat!!!

Cory: That’s not because of your pregnancy…

Topanga: A-HA!!! YOU THINK I’M FAT, UH?

Cory: No…No!!! I didn’t mean that!!! You got me wrong!!!

Topanga: Yeah, right!!! Because of this, I’ll make you sleep on the couch tonight!!!

Cory: No, Topanga, please!!! You didn’t understand my comment!!!

Topanga: I didn’t, uh? Get on your knees!!!

Cory: WHAT?

Topanga: I said GET ON YOUR KNEES!!!

Cory got on his knees.

Cory: Why?

Topanga: Now, repeat these words I’ll say: “Please, forgive me, honey!!! You are not fat, you are beautiful. And you’ll be beautiful until the end of your life!!!”.

Cory repeated every word Topanga told him to repeat.

Topanga: Ok, you can sleep here with me. Now lay on bed and don’t say a word until tomorrow.

Cory: Ok, good night, Topanga.

Topanga: I said DON’T SAY A WORD!!!

[nana2908brazil]

Shawn was working when the phone rang.

Shawn: Hello.

Cory: Hey, Shawn!!!

Shawn: Hey, Cory!!! What’s up!!!

Cory: Do you have plans for lunch?

Shawn: No…

Cory: So, let’s have lunch together. I need to talk to you.

Shawn: Ok.

*********************************************
At lunch time, Cory and Shawn met in a restaurant. Then, they got a table and ordered their food.

Shawn: So, what do you have to say to me?

Cory: You don’t know what happened at my house the other day…

Shawn: What?

Cory: Angela came to visit us…

Shawn: I imagined that, because when she left my house, she asked for your number…

Cory: But, you don’t know what happened next…

Shawn: What?

Cory: We were talking to Angela when Jen came up.

Shawn: WHAT? WHY?

Cory: She was desperated…She said that you had just broken up with her.

Shawn: Yes, I had. But, what happened when Angela and Jen met?

Cory: Jen deduced that Angela was the reason of your break up, and ran out crying a lot.

Shawn: OMG!!! How about Angela?

Cory: She felt a little guilty…

Shawn: DAMMIT!!!

Cory: Angela told us what happened that day between you and her…Shawn, you are a completely dumb!!!

Shawn: Why?

Cory: You love her, and we know that’s why you broke up with Jen. Why didn’t you tell Angela that you’re still in love with her?

Shawn: Because she hurt me!!! Don’t you remember? And I would not forgive her that easy!!!

Cory: Shame on you, Shawn…

*********************************************
Topanga was arriving home from work when the phone rang.

Topanga: Hello.

Angela: Hey, Topanga!!! It’s Angela!!!

Topanga: Hey!!! What’s up!!!

Angela: Could you give me Jenniffer’s address, please?

Topanga: Sure!!! But why do you want it?

Angela: I’m feeling really guilty since that day…And I want to go there and make things clear…

Topanga: I see…

Then, she gave Jenniffer’s address to Angela.

Angela: Thank you, Topanga!!!

Topanga: You’re welcome!!! Call me later to tell me what happened there!!!

Angela: Be sure I will!!! Cya!!!

Topanga: Cya!!!
Topanga hung up the phone when the bell rang.

Topanga: Morgan!!! Hey!!! I’ts been a while since the last time we saw!!!

Morgan: Hi, Topanga!!! I’ve been busy these days. So, I missed you and Cory and decided to stop by a little bit here…

Topanga: You did it well!!! Cory isn’t home yet. Why don’t you stay here for dinner?

Morgan: Ok…Thanks…I’ll call home and tell Eric.

Then, she called and told Eric that she would have dinner at Topanga’s.

Morgan: Right…Everything is Ok. Rachel will have dinner at my house, so it would be good for them to be just the three of them there, remebering the old times when they lived together…

Topanga: Yes!!! So…Talking about Jack…How is things going between the two of you?

Morgan: Couldn’t be better!!! We will go to a party together on Friday!!!

Topanga: How? Have you already told Eric what’s going on?

Morgan: NO!!! NO!!! But, thanks to a plan I made, Jack will take me to this party!!! Hehe…

Topanga: Smart girl, uh?

They laughed. Then, Cory arrived, so they stopped talking about Jack.

*********************************************
Jenniffer was preparing her dinner when the bell rang.

Jenniffer: What are you doing here? Did you come to give me the wedding invitation?

Angela: NO!!! No way!!! I came here because I want to explain some things to you.

Jenniffer: Well…Come in…

Angela: Thanks.

Jenniffer: So…What do you have to explain?

Angela: Well…I was wondering…Have you thought that Shawn broke up with you because of me?

Jenniffer: No, I haven’t thought…I’m SURE of it.

Angela: Well, I want you to know that I’m not with him.

Jenniffer: Not now, but it’s just a matter of time. You know, Angela, when Shawn told me about what happened between you and him, I got a little insecure, because I felt that he was not over you. Then I felt like I was in a safe place, because you were in Europe and maybe you and Shawn would never meet again. But when I saw you at Topanga’s house I felt like I had lost Shawn forever, because I can’t compete with the woman of his life.

Angela: Woman of his life? If I were the woman of his life he wouldn’t have treated me the way he treated when I went to his house.

Jenniffer: Yes, Angela, I know how he must have treated you. But, don’t you know Shawn? He wouldn’t forgive you that easy…When he told me your story together, I could see in his eyes how hurt he got…

Angela: Yes, I guess you’re right…But what I want to tell you is that I never meant to screw up your relationship with Shawn. I would never have looked for him if I knew how things were going to end.

Jenniffer: I know, Angela. I’m sorry for being so rude with you when you came. You are a good person, this I can’t deny. But Shawn broke up with me and I know that you are the reason. I’m still in love wit him but I can’t be an obstacle to such a beautiful love story.

Then, the bell rang.

Jenniffer: Can you wait just a second, please?

Angela: Sure!!!

Jenniffer opened the door.

Jenniffer: Shawn? What are you doing here?

[nana2908brazil]

Shawn: Can I come in, Jen?

Jenniffer: No…I have visit!!!

Shawn: Oh, I see. It hasn’t been a week since we broke up and you are already with another man!!! LET ME IN, JEN!!!

Then, Angela stood up and went to the door.

Angela: No, it isn’t another man…It’s me!!!

Shawn: What are you doing at my girlfriend’s house?

Jenniffer: Ex-girlfriend, you mean!!! She’s here because she wanted to talk to me!!!

Shawn: About what, uh? Are you telling her to get out of your way, because I’m still yours? You’re wrong, Angela!!! You’re really wrong!!!

Jenniffer: Could you shut up, Shawn? Angela is not here because of what you are thinking!!! And, you know what? I’d rather if you leave right now!!! GO AWAY, SHAWN!!!

Shawn: Thanks, Angela!!! You just came here to screw up with my life!!! I hate you!!!

Jenniffer: GO AWAY, SHAWN!!!

*********************************************
Eric, Rachel and Jack were having dinner.

Jack: So, Rach, I’ve already told Eric and now I want to tell it to you. I’ve got a job here in NY and I’ll start next Monday. And, Eric, I’m already looking for an apartment, so I won’t bother you and Morgan anymore.

Rachel: Wow, Jack!!! That’s really great!!! Although it means that you are going to leave me…

Eric: You don’t bother us at all!!! You can stay here as much as you need to.

Jack: Thanks, Eric. Rach, why don’t you stay here with us too?

Rachel: I don’t know, Jack. You know, more than anyone, how much I love my job at the Peace Corps. As I said to Eric the other day, I’ll only stay here if I have a good reason..

Jack: Yeah, I know how much you love it. But maybe it’s time to move on with our lives, Rach.

Rachel: Maybe…But I’m not sure about it. And if I know you, I can tell that you found your reason to be here forever.

Jack: I guess I did…But I’m not sure yet.

Eric: And what is it?

Jack: I don’t want to tell yet, because, as I said, I’m not really sure..

Eric: Come on, Jack!!! We are best friends!!! Why don’t you tell us?

By the time Eric said that, Morgan walked into the apartment.

Morgan: Hey, guys!!! I’ll go to my bedroom so you can continue your dinner in peace!!!

Rachel: Oh, no!!! Please, join us!!! We are trying to discover what was Jack’s reason to stay in NY forever. I can bet that is because of a woman!!! Hahaha…

While Eric and Rachel were laughing, Jack and Morgan looked at each other. She finally realized that he was in love with her too. She smiled at him in a way she have never done before.

Morgan: I don’t know. I don’t think Jack would be so predictable!!! Hahaha…

She tried to change the subject. But Rachel insisted.

Rachel: Haha…I can assure this to you!!! I know him as a sister knows a brother!!! Well, guys!!! That was really funny, but it’s getting late. I have to go now.

Eric: I’ll take you.

Rachel: Ok. Good night, guys.

When she embraced Jack to say good night, she said:

Rachel (Whispering): I know…It’s Morgan…I just saw you looking at her…

Jack assured with his head and they smiled to each other when Rachel left.

*********************************************
Cory: Topanga, don’t you think that Morgan is a little different these days?

Topanga: I don’t think, I know!!!

Cory: How do you know?

Topanga: She told me the reason.

Cory: And what is it?

Topanga: I can’t tell you. It’s a secret.

Cory: I thought we didn’t have secrets…

Topanga: When it comes to someone else’s things, secrets are allowed between us.

Cory: But Morgan is my sister and I care about her. Ok! I know. It’s about a guy, isn’t it?

Topanga: Yes, but the real question is who is the guy.

Cory: And who is the guy?

Topanga: That’s what I can’t tell you.

Cory: Why? Do I know him?

Topanga: Yes. That’s why she asked me to keep secret. When she wants to, she will reveal this for you.

Cory: Ok.

*********************************************
Later, Eric wasn’t back yet. It was just Morgan and Jack.

Morgan: So, you’re staying because of a woman, uh?

Jack: Maybe…

Morgan (Smiling): May I know who she is? Uh?

Jack (Smiling): As if you didn’t know it.

Morgan: But I want to hear it from you…

Jack: Ok…Ok…Her name is Morgan Matthews. She is the reason why I’m staying in NY forever. I’m in love with her in a way I’ve never been with anyone else!!!

Morgan: REALLY? OMG!!! I was so afraid, Jack. I thought you didn’t feel the same!!!

Jack: What?

Morgan: I thought that you were just having fun with me, and not that you were in love with me. That’s why I was so afraid, but now I can tell you: I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU TOO, JACK!!!

They shared a passionate kiss. It was so intense that they didn’t realized that Eric walked in.

Eric: MY GOD!!! I CAN’T BELIEVE IN MY EYES RIGHT NOW!!!

[nana2908brazil]

Jack and Morgan just couldn’t believe that. Their secret has been discovered in the worst way.

Jack: I can explain, Eric!!!

Eric: Explain what? I saw it!!! You don’t have how to deny it!!!

Jack: I know!!! But I’m in love with Morgan, and she is in love with me too!!!

Eric: Yeah, right! Do you think I’m going to believe in you? Jack, you are much older than her!!!

Morgan: That isn’t an obstacle when two people are in love!!!

Eric: Morgan, how can you be so stupid? I know Jack much more than you!!! Do you really think that he’s in love with you?

Morgan: I do!!! He has just confessed to me that I am the reason of his decision to stay here!!! I love him, Eric, and this is something you can’t change!!!

Eric: Morgan, you are just a little girl!!! How can you tell that you love someone?

Morgan: I’m not a little girl anymore!!! You told this to me once, don’t you remember that? And, at least I assume I love someone, I don’t act like a 12 year old school girl like you do!!! You are jealous, Eric!!! You are jealous because you don’t have the courage to tell Rachel how you have always felt and still feel about her!!!

Jack: Rachel? Eric, do you still love Rachel?

Eric: That’s not of your business!!! I’ve lost my trust in you!!!

Morgan: I can’t believe it!!! Just can’t!!! I’ll spend the night at Cory’s!!! Just talk to me again when you consider about all the foolish things you said today!!! Bye!!!

Morgan hit the door.

Jack: Eric, I’m sorry, we were going to tell you soon…We didn’t want you to find out about us this way.

Eric: You betrayed me…Again…And I guess I won’t forgive you this time.

Jack: Ok, Eric, you won!!! I’m leaving!!!

Jack packed his stuff and went to Shawn’s.

*********************************************

It was late night when the bell rang, Topanga got frightened.

Topanga: OMG, Cory!!! It’s really late!!! Go there and see who is it.

Cory: Ok.

Cory opened the door.

Morgan: Can I spend the night here?

Cory: Why? What happened?

Morgan: It’s a long story. Is Topanga already sleeping?

Topanga: No, I’m here…I can imagine what happened.

Morgan: Yes…That’s exactly what you’re thinking!!!

Cory: CAN YOU GIRLS TELL ME WHAT’S HAPPENING?

Morgan told everything, since the beginning, to her brother.

Cory: WHAT? Jack? I can’t believe it Morgan!!!

Topanga: Cory!!! Morgan is not a little girl anymore!!! She can go out with whoever she wants to!!!

Cory: But for me she will always be a little girl…

Morgan: But not for the rest of the world, Cory!!! I’m in love with Jack!!! Well, I guess I’ll go to Katie’s. Cory had the same reaction Eric did…

Topanga: No!!! You’ll spend the night here and you’ll stay here until things get better. You can stay at Eric’s old room, and I’ll have a serious conversation with your brother here…There are clean sheets and towels in the closet.

Morgan: Thanks, Topanga…YOU are a real sister…

Topanga: You’re welcome, Morgan. Be my guest.

*********************************************

When Shawn opened the door, he got surprised.

Shawn: Jack? What are you doing here?

Jack: It’s a long story, can I stay here until I find my own place?

Shawn: Yes, but you’ll have to sleep in the couch. This is a loft, Bro, I only have one bed here and it’s occupied. But what happened? Weren’t you at Eric’s?

Jack told his brother everything tha happened.

Shawn: OMG!!! Morgan? I can’t believe it!!! I mean, she became a hot girl, but I can’t see her as a woman, just as Cory’s little sister.

Jack: HEY!!! Don’t you ever talk this way about her again in front of me!!! I’m in love with her, right?

Shawn: Ok…Ok…Well, here is the couch. Enjoy it!!!

Jack: Haha…You are soooo funny!!!

Shawn: Why? You don’t want to sleep with me, don’t you?

Jack: No!!! Never again!!! I love your couch!!! Good night, Shawn!!!

Shawn: Good night…Haha…

When Shawn came back to his bed, there was a girl with him.

Girl: Who’s here with you?

Shawn: My brother, I mean, half brother, but don’t worry. I’m hotter than him!!!

They laughed.

Jack was on the couch, trying to sleep, but all he could think about was Morgan and Eric. How would he keep both relationships without hurting them?

[nana2908brazil]

Jack was awake when the sun rised. He couldn’t sleep. Shawn woke up.

Shawn: The couch wasn’t good, uh?

Jack: Haha…Actually it was even a little comfortable, but I had so many things inside my head that didn’t let me sleep.

Shawn: I can imagine…Well, I have to work later, so now I’ll take a shower and then I’ll prepare the breakfast…

Jack: Go take your shower while I prepare breakfast to us. Then we talk…

Shawn: Preparing breakfast while I’m in the shower, talking during the breakfast…Great!!! Now I have a wife!!!

Jack: Ha ha ha…You’re so funny!!!

Shawn: Just kidding…Thanks. Please, prepare breakfast for three…

Jack: Right…Now, from wife I’ve become a waitress!!! Is Jenniffer here with you and you didn’t tell me?

Shawn: No, it isn’t Jen…We broke up a couple of days ago…

Jack: Oh, I’m sorry!!! You moved on fast, uh? Mmm…Breakfast for three…Ok. Now go take your shower.

Shawn: Ok. Thanks.

Then, Shawn took his shower and woke the girl.

Shawn: I have to work, and I don’t want you to be here with my brother…So, take a shower, we’ll have breakfast and then we leave together.

Girl: Ok…

The girl took her shower and had breakfast with Shawn and Jack.

Jack: Shawn, you could come over here at lunch so we can have lunch together…

Shawn: Oh, sure, honey!!! What else?

Jack: Ha ha…

Shawn: Ok...I’ll come. Now I have to go. I’m late. See you at lunch.

Then, Shawn and the unkown girl left the apartment.

*********************************************

At class, Morgan couldn’t pay attention in any word the teacher was saying.

Katie: Morgan!!! Morgan!!!

Morgan: What?

Katie: I’ve been calling you for about five minutes!!! What’s the matter with you?

Morgan: I’ll tell you at the break.

Katie: Ok…

At the break, Morgan told everything that happened the last night.

Katie: Oh, no, this sucks!!! Just when he told you he was in love with you!!! That’s so bad!!! But, did you and Jack break up

Morgan: No…I mean…Not yet, but I don’t know what’s going to happen between us. I don’t think it will be possible to make a decision without hurting anyone…

Katie: That’s sad…So, you’re not going to the party on Friday, are you?

Morgan: I don’t think so…

Katie: What a shame!!!

*********************************************
Jack was preparing the lunch when the bell rang.

Jack: That can’t be Shawn…It’s too early…Plus, he has the keys.

He opened the door.

Jack: Angela? Is it you?

Angela: Jack? I can’t believe it!!! I didn’t know you were in town!!!

Jack: I didn’t know you were too!!! What a surprise!!! Please, come in!!!

Angela: Is Shawn home?

Jack: I’m afraid he’s not, but he’ll be here for lunch. Why don’t you have lunch with us?

Angela: I don’t think Shawn would like the idea of me having lunch with you…

Jack: Why? What happened?

Angela told everything that happened.

Jack: Mmm…That explains why he was here last night with an unknown girl…

Angela: He never changes, uh? But, tell me, how long you’ve been living with Shawn?

Jack: Since yesterday night.

Angela: Ahn? How?

Then, Jack told his story to Angela.

Angela: OMG!!! Morgan? Cory’s sister? I didn’t even know that she was living here!!! Well, whatever, if you guys are in love you have to be together.

Jack: Thanks, Angela. Well, there’s something I couldn’t understand. If Shawn hates you, why are you here looking for him?

Angela: I want to make some things clear here, and I hope he can listen to me…

Jack: Right.

They were talking when Shawn arrived.

Shawn: Great!!! Now I have a person chasing me!!! What are you doing here?

Angela: I need to talk to you, and Jack invited me to have lunch with you.

Shawn: Oh, great!!! You invite her without my agreement!!!

Jack: Yes…And Angela, don’t even think of going away. You’ll stay here and then I’ll leave so you can talk in peace…

Shawn: I have nothing to talk to her!!!

Jack: But she has something to talk to you!!! And you are going to listen to her!!!

Shawn: Oh, great, now you’re not acting as if you were my wife, you are acting like my mother!!!

Jack: I’m not kidding!!! Maybe if you listen to her, things can get better. I’m asking you not to act like Eric did with me last night!!!

Shawn: Ok…But I’m doing this for you, and not for her.

They had their lunch. It was the worst lunch they ever had in their lives…

[nana2908brazil]

The lunch was finally over.

Jack: Well, guys, I’ll go walk…Maybe look for an apartment. I can’t sleep on Shawn’s couch forever. Anyways…I’ll leave you alone. Cya!!! Don’t kill each other!!!

Shawn: Oh, Jack, you are sooooo funny!!!

Jack: I know I am!!! Bye!!!

Shawn and Angela stood there, facing each other. What did she have to tell him

Shawn: So…What do you have to tell me? I thought we had nothing else to say to each other.

Angela: But I do. First, I was at Jen’s yesterday because I felt guilty for your breaking up.

Shawn: What? You must be kidding!!! You thought that you were the reason of our break up? Don’t be so self-confident!!!

Angela: I don’t know, Shawn, but she told me that since you knew about me you started acting weird with her. Now I want you to deny it…If you can.

Shawn: You came here just to tell me that? Oh, come on!!! Go away!!!

Angela: No, I have another thing to tell you.

Shawn: So, tell me!!! I don’t have all the time in the world!!!

Angela: My father is dead…

Shawn: Oh!!! I’m sorry!!! When and how did it happen?

Angela: April 14th, 2002. He had a heart attack and the doctors couldn’t save him.

Shawn: OMG!!! I’m sorry!!! Wait…You said April 14th 2002? Now I understand everything!!! I understand why you haven’t sent an e-mail for me that day, and why you’ve been hurt when I didn’t send you a message like "What happened? I missed you...Blah, blah, blah”.

Angela: Yes…Do you understand me now?

Shawn: But why didn’t you send me an e-mail telling what happened to your father?

Angela: Because I know you, Shawn!!! When I realized that you haven’t written a message to me the day after my father’s death I knew that you wouldn’t even read my message the other day…

Shawn: I’m sorry to tell you but you were really wrong!!! Of course I would open your message!!! Maybe I would even catch the next plane to France just to be by your side at the hardest time of your life!!!

Angela: Would you do that for me?

Shawn: Sure!!! I would, but now it’s too late, Angela.

Angela: Why? Won’t you forgive me?

Shawn: Yes, Angela, I’ll forgive you, but that doesn’t mean I’ll run to your arms again…Time has passed…And I don’t know if I’ll be able to love you anymore…

Angela: But, since I’m forgiven, can I ask you something?

Shawn: What?

Angela: Could you hug me?

Shawn did what Angela asked. They stood there, embraced for a long time. Tears were running through their faces.

*********************************************
When Morgan left work, she went to Eric’s so she could get some of her things. Eric wasn’t there.
After doing that, she went to Cory and Topanga’s. Cory was there, but Topanga wasn’t.

Morgan: Hi.

Cory: Hi. Can we talk?

Morgan: If you are going to tell me that you don’t support what I did, I don’t want to hear it.

Cory: No, that’s not what I’m going to say.

Morgan: Ok. I’ll take this things to the bedroom and then I’ll talk to you.

Said and done, Morgan sat on the couch aside Cory.

Morgan: What’s up?

Cory: Topanga talked to me yesterday. She made me see that you are right, Morgan. It reminded me of the day I wanted to marry Topanga and everyone was against that, so we ran away. Do you remember that?

Morgan: Yes, I do…You guys were crazy!!!

They laughed.

Cory: So…That’s not I want to happen to you. So I want you to know that I will support every decision you’ll make. You can count on me and Topanga for whatever you need.

Morgan: Thanks, Cory!

And then she embraced him.

Morgan: Now, I’ll go to my temporary bedroom. I’ve brought some stuff I’m going to need during the time I’ll spend here so I have to put it in the closet.

Cory: Go there…

Morgan: Ok. Thanks, Cory.

Morgan entered the bedroom. When she opened the closet she saw that box with “ERIC’S STUFF” written. She had already seen that yesterday when she opened the closet to get sheets and towels but she didn’t have the courage to open that. Now she did, and she opened the box. There was some old stuff, but she found something that made her understand everything: a picture of Eric with Jack and Rachel. Eric looked so happy by his best friends side. That moment, she understood how important they were to Eric, and she just couldn’t screw this up. Eric needed those friends more than everything, but they couldn’t be there at the time he needed them the most. And now they were back and he was happy again. She started crying, because she found out that she would have to make the worst decision she ever had to in her entire life. She would have to give up her love in benefit of her beloved brother’s happiness.
Suddenly, she heard the bell ringing, and Cory going to open the door. It was Jack. The time had come…

Jack: Hey, Cory. I know you must hate me right now, but is Morgan here?

Cory: I don’t hate you. I respect what you and Morgan have. And yes, she’s here. She’s inside that bedroom. Go there.

Jack: Ok, thanks.

When Jack walked in, she found Morgan crying. She had that picture in her hands.

Jack: Morgan? Why are you crying?

Morgan: Hi, Jack. We need to talk.

Jack: I know, that’s why I came here. I want you to know that I thought a lot about everything that happened, and I want to tell you that I want to keep going with you. You can live with me when I find my own apartment.

Morgan: Shhhh…Don’t make things harder…

Jack: Why? What are you trying to say?

Morgan: I have just found this.

She gave the picture to Jack.

Jack: Right. It’s a picture of me, Eric and Rachel together, but what does it mean?

Morgan: It means that Eric was very happy in this picture. It was a long time ago. And he was happy like this again when you and Rachel came back from the Peace Corps. He wasn’t this happy for a long time…

Jack: Morgan, I’m not getting your point…

Morgan: Let me explain to you, Jack. About a year ago, Mr. Feeny died. It was really hard for Eric. You know that Mr. Feeny was like a father to Eric and Cory, don’t you?

Jack: I do.

Morgan: So, Cory got over it, but Eric didn’t. He has never been the same since Feeny’s death. So, when he heard that you and Rachel were going back here, he got happy again. And I don’t want to be the one who’s taking this happiness off him. Now do you understand me?

Jack: I do. You are saying that you’re going to giving up on us because of Eric…

Morgan: NO!!! You are misunderstanding everything!!! I love you, Jack, and I’ll probably love for a long time, but now we just can’t be together. That’s why I am crying.

Jack: Ok, Morgan. I understand you. But it will be really hard to look at you everytime I see you. I don’t know if I’ll be able to control myself.

Morgan: Me neither, Jack. But we have to think that we are doing this for Eric. I don’t think he was acting the right way yesterday, but we have to think about him. Maybe someday we can get together again, but now it’s impossible…

Jack: I know…I’ll leave now, but before I go, can I ask you for a last kiss?

She stood up and kissed him. Then, she embraced him. They stood this way for a long time.

Jack: I have to go…

Morgan (Whispering): I love you…

Jack (Whispering): I love you too…

When he left, she stood there, crying. She has lost her love…Maybe forever…

[nana2908brazil]

Topanga was already home when Jack left. Cory and her entered the room to see how Morgan was going. They found her crying.

Topanga: So…You broke up with Jack, didn’t you?

Morgan: Yes…

Topanga embraced her.

Topanga: I’m sorry, Morgan…

Cory: But, why did you do that?

Morgan: I needed to, Cory…We couldn’t get together now. We have to think about Eric, he needs us, and if he doesn’t accept we to get together we have to respect his feelings, because he has suffered a lot lately and I don’t want to be the one to cause him more pain…

Cory: I understand your reasons, Morgan, but if you and Jack are truly in love it will be hard for you both, specially because now he will be in New York for good.

Morgan: I know, but for now it was the best solution I’ve found. Tomorrow I’ll go talk to Eric.

Topanga: Ok. We’ll leave you alone now…

Morgan: Please, don’t. Stay here with me. I don’t want to be alone…

Topanga and Cory: Ok…

They embraced her and stood with her until she fell asleep. Then, they went to their bedroom.

Topanga: Poor Morgan…I don’t know if I’d be able to give up on my love…Specially in her age.

Cory: We never did, uh? Even when you moved to Pittsburgh…Although it’s a hard thing for me to accept, I have to admit that Morgan had become a woman, a very mature one. I admire her attitude, and I think that the thing between her and Jack isn’t over for good. If they really love each other they will find a way to get together. Just like we did…

Topanga: I really hope they do…And that their love can be as strong as ours.

*********************************************
The next day, at College, Morgan was talking to Katie.

Katie: I can’t believe you broke up with him!!! But you had a lot of courage, girl. I admire you.

Morgan: Thanks, but I don’t know if I admire myself…There will be hard times for me from now…

Katie: I know, but, listen, you can count on me for whatever you need!!!

Morgan: Thanks, Katie…Be sure I will need you a lot of times. You will be bored with me…

Katie: Doesn’t matter. That’s what friends are for…

They were talking when Josh, who’s Katie’s boyfriend, and Billy arrived.

Josh and Billy: Hey, girls.

Morgan and Katie: Hi!!!

Josh: So…Morgan…Are you going to Katie’s party tomorrow night?

Morgan: Mmm…I don’t think so…I’ve broken up with my boyfriend yesterday, so I won’t have a date to go…

Josh: Oh! What a coincidence!!! Billy doesn’t have a date too!!!

Katie: You could go with him, Morgan!!!

Morgan: Oh, no…Billy, don’t take it personal but I’m just not in the mood to go to a party with a date.

Billy: That’s ok, Morgan, but be sure that if you didn’t want, I wouldn’t try to do anything with you…We could go just as friends…

Katie: Come on, Morgan!!! It will be fun!!! A party is all you need to cheer up!!!

Morgan: You know what? You’re right!!! Billy, you know where I live, don’t you?

Billy: I do…

Morgan: So, I’ll be waiting for you tomorrow at 9pm, right?

Billy: Ok. I’ll be there.

Morgan: Fine!

Katie: You go, girl!

*********************************************
Later, Eric got home from work. The phone was ringing.

Eric: Hello!

Rachel: Hi, Eric! It’s Rachel!

Eric: Hey, Rach! What’s up?

Rachel: I wanted to talk to you. I got a phone call from the Peace Corps today. They told me that if I wanted to I’d have two days to join them again…

Eric: So…You’re really not staying with us…

Rachel: No. On Saturday afternoon, I’ll join them again.

Eric: Now I’m sad…

Rachel: Don’t be…Jack will be here…

Eric: I can’t count on Jack anymore…

Rachel: I know you fought. He told me. But, Eric, you can’t throw his friendship away like this…Think about all the things you’ve been through. This is just another obstacle to overcome…
Eric: I don’t know if I can forgive him…

Rachel: Well, Eric, that’s your judgement, I can do nothing else for you…

Eric: Ok…But…You’re leaving, uh? You can’t leave without a goodbye party…I’ll call everyone and tell that I’ll throw a party here tomorrow night.

Rachel: Please, call Jack. Oh! And call Angela! Jack told me she’s in town!

Eric: I’ll have to think about it. And, Angela? Really? But how will I find her?

Rachel: I think Cory and Topanga have her number…

Eric: Ok…I’ll get her number with Cory. Be here tomorrow at 8pm, ok?

Rachel: Ok, Eric! Thanks for being so nice, and, please, think about Jack!

Eric: You’re welcome. I promise you I will! Cya!

Rachel: Cya tomorrow!

When Eric hung up he started thinking. He thought about Jack and realized that maybe Rachel had a point. This was just one more obstacle to overcome. And then he thought about Rachel. Tomorrow was the last chance he would have to declare his feelings for her, and he had to think how would he do that. He was there, lost in his thoughts when the bell rang.
Eric opened the door and got surprised:

Morgan: I think you lost this…A long time ago…

[nana2908brazil]

Morgan had the picture of Eric with Jack and Rachel in her hands.

Eric: What’s this?

Morgan: See it for yourself.

Eric took the picture from Morgan’s hands.

Eric: Can’t believe it!!! It’s from the day they went to the Peace Corps and I came to New York! Do you know how long I’ve been looking for this?

Morgan: I found it inside a box in your old room’s closet at Cory and Topanga’s.

Eric: A box? What else was there?

Morgan: I don’t remember…Later, you can go there and see…

Eric: I missed you, Morgan.

Morgan: I missed you too…And I want you to know that I broke up with Jack.

Eric: Really?

Morgan: Yes, and I’d like to ask you to forgive him. You need his friendship and you know that. I’ve brought you this picture to remind you of this.

Eric: Rachel asked me to forgive him too. And I guess you girls are right. I need his friendship. It’s just that I couldn’t accept seeing you with him.

Morgan: I don’t know why, but I won’t question you again. It will take us nowhere. But, tell me something…When are you going to tell Rachel that you love her?

Eric: Tomorrow…She’ll leave on Saturday afternoon and I’ll throw a goodbye party here for her. That’s the last oportunity I’ll have to tell her how I feel.

Morgan: GO ERIC!!! That’s a shame I won’t be here to see it!

Eric: Why?

Morgan: I’ll go to Katie’s party tomorrow, don’t you remember?

Eric: With Jack, like I told you to without knowing that it was just another plan of yours?

Morgan: No…I broke up with him, did you miss this part? I’ll go with a friend of Katie’s boyfriend…But just as friends.

Eric (Smiling): Oh, I see…Just like I thought you’d go to this party with Jack, uh?

Morgan (Smiling): Don’t start it!!!

Eric: Come on, Sis. Give me a hug!!!

She embraced him.

Eric: I want you to come back home, could you?

Morgan: Yes, I’ll just go to Cory’s and take my stuff…I’ll be right back.

Eric: Ok! Could you ask him for Angela’s number?

Morgan: Sure! Angela?

Eric: Yeah! She’s in town.

Morgan: Ok…I’ll get her number for you…See you later…

Eric: Bye, Sis. It’s good to have you back.

*********************************************
When Morgan arrived in Cory’s house, Angela was there.

Morgan: Hello, guys!!! I don’t want to bother you…I’m just here to pick up my stuff because I’m coming back home…

Topanga: Wow! That’s great! Morgan, do you remember Angela?

Morgan: Of course I do!!! It’s really good to see you, and it will make things easier for me, since Eric asked for your number…

Angela: Wow, Morgan! You look really beautiful!!!

Morgan: Thanks, Angela, you look beautiful too…

Angela: But, why does Eric want my number?

Morgan: Because Rachel is leaving on Saturday afternoon, and Eric will throw a goodbye party for her. He’d like you to go.

Angela: Rachel? That’s great!!! But it’s a shame I’ll just see her for tomorrow night.

Morgan: Well…I got all my stuff. I’m leaving now.

Angela: Here’s my number.

She gave Morgan a piece of paper.

Morgan: Thanks. It’s good to see you.

Angela: It’s good to see you too…

Morgan: See you, guys. Thanks for letting me spend some nights here.

Topanga: You know you’ll always be welcome here…

Morgan: Thanks, Topanga. Gotta go now…

And then, she left.

Angela: Wow!!! When Jack told me about her I couldn’t even imagine how beautiful she had become…

Topanga: Did Jack tell you what happened between them?

Angela: Yes. That’s so sad. I was at Shawn’s yesterday when he arrived…He was demolished…I can tell this to you: he really loves her!!!

Cory: I believe in you, Angela, because this is what me and Topanga think of this whole story…Morgan got demiloshed too, but we think that she’s taken a very mature decision…So...You were at Shawn’s yesterday…What happened?

Angela: Redemption time…He forgave me…

Cory: How did it happen?

Angela told everything that happened.

Topanga: Oh, Angela. I’m sorry for your father, but I’m happy to know that you and Shawn are friends again...I hope you can get back together...

Angela: This I don’t know, but I’m telling you that I hope Shawn can love me again.

Cory: He will…As his best friend I can assure you that.

Angela: Thanks, Cory!!! Well, guys, I have to go now. I would love if you could come to visit me sometime and meet my roomates.

Topanga: Roomates?

Angela: Yes. Two twin sister I’ve met in the plane when I went to Paris with my father, but they would just spend 2 months there. They were from NY and I never lost contact with them when they left Paris, so, when I told them that I was coming to NY they offered me to be their roomate. Their names are Sabrina and Natalie. You’ll love to meet them!!!

Topanga: We’re sure we will!!! Why don’t you ask Eric to take them to Rachel’s party?

Angela: That’s a good idea. I’ll ask him. Well…I really have to go now. See you, guys!

Topanga and Cory: See you, Angela.

[nana2908brazil]

When Angela arrived home, her roomate Sabrina was in the living room with her boyfriend, Thomas.

Angela: Hey, guys!!! I’m sorry to bother you. I’ll go to my room…

Sabrina: You don’t bother us at all!!! Oh, and you’ve got two calls from two different guys…Their names are Eric and Shawn, but just Eric left his number…Powerful girl, uh?

Angela (laughing): Thanks, Sabrina. And, just for the record, Shawn didn’t leave his number because he knows I won’t need it!!! Hehe…I can dial his number with my eyes closed!!!

They laughed.

Angela: Well, I’ll go to my bedroom so you can continue your date in peace. Good night!!!

Sabrina and Thomas: Good night!!!

Angela entered her room and called Eric. Morgan answered the phone.

Morgan: Hello!

Angela: Hello, who is it?

Morgan: It’s Morgan.

Angela: Hi! It’s Angela! Can I please talk to Eric?

Morgan: Hi, Angela! Of course you can talk to Eric! I’ll call him!!! Bye!!!

Angela: Thanks! Bye!

Eric: Hi, Angela! It’s good to talk to you!

Angela: It’s good to talk to you too, Eric! Morgan told me you wanted to talk about Rachel’s goodbye party.

Eric: Yes. I want you to come to my house tomorrow at 8pm to the party.

He told her his address.

Angela: Ok I know where it is…Eric, can I take my roomates to the party?

Eric: Of course you can! They will be welcome here!!!

Angela: Ok, thanks. So, I’ll see you tomorrow!

Eric: See you!!!

*********************************************
Shawn and Jack were having dinner.

Shawn: So…How are you feeling today?

Jack: Better than yesterday but it still hurts.

Shawn: I know I’ve already been through this.
Then, the bell rang.

Shawn: That must be Angela. I’ll get it.

Jack: I haven’t asked you this yesterday, but I’ll ask you now. Did you guys got back together?

Shawn: No…But we forgave each other and now we’re friends again. It’s gonna be one step at a time.

Jack: You guys are right. Now go open the door.

Shawn opened the door.

Shawn: Eric? What are you doing here?

Eric: I need to talk to you and Jack.

Shawn: Ok. Come in…

Eric walked in.

Jack: Eric? Whatever you have to say, save it for yourself. My relationship with Morgan is over.

Eric: I know. She told me. That’s not why I’m here. Listen, guys, Rachel will leave on Saturday afternoon and I’ll throw a goodbye party for her in my apartment tomorrow night. I’d appreciate if you guys could go.

Shawn: Ok. Angela is in town. Can I take her?

Eric: Actually, I’ve already invited her. Rachel told me that Angela was in town so I got her number with Cory and invited her. She will be there anyways.

Shawn: Ok. I’ll go. Well…I guess you want to talk to Jack in private, so I’ll leave. I’ll wait Angela in the hall. Bye.

Then, Shawn left.

Eric: Well, Jack, I’m here swallowing my pride and forgiving you…

Jack: Are you forgiving me? Yeah, right! I guess I’m the one who has to forgive you. Because of your terrible reaction I’m here today without the woman I love…

Eric: Ok, Jack, I’m seeing that you don’t want nothing that comes from me…I’m leaving now but I’ll ask you to go to Rachel’s party tomorrow, but not for me…For her.

Jack: I’ll go, Eric and you’re wrong…I’ll forgive for what you’ve done because that’s why I’m not with Morgan anymore. She wanted us to go back being what we used to…And she knew that it wouldn’t be possible if my relationship with her kept going…

Eric: So…Friends again?

Jack: Yes.

Eric embraced Jack.

Jack: I’m sorry for Mr. Feeny. I didn’t know he was dead…

Eric: That’s ok…
