We got back from the hospital and Topanga wouldn't let go of me. She was like a three year old.
"Topanga, let go." She tightened her grip around my arm. I walked into the kitchen to see my parents, Eric, and Morgan. Topanga saw them and she let go.
"Cory we're going away on a vacation," my mom said, "That means you'll need to go a week without Topanga and Shawn." They all looked at Topanga and I. "I'm not going." Morgan stood up and looked at me, "If you don't go, I'll tell mom and dad about your-" I threw my hand over her mouth and pulled her into the other room. "How did you know about my scar?" I whisper yelled. "I have my ways."
"If you tell... I'm gonna kill you." She rolled her eyes and walked back to the kitchen.
-One Week Later-
"Topanga, I have to go. We're gonna miss our flight." She hugged me and I kissed her the top of her head. "Call me everyday when you get back from the park." She pulled away from the hug and I kissed her goodbye. I grabbed my suitcase. And walked out

We arrived at the hotel and since it was late we, no, my parents, decided to go to the pool. I was about to take off my shirt to go in then I realized I had a giant scar my parents didn't know about. "What wrong, Cory? Aren't you gonna go swimming?" Morgan teased. "You know I'm just gonna head to the room to call Topanga." I placed the towel over my shoulder and started to walk back.
"Come on, Cor. Your life doesn't revolve around Topanga." My dad said climbing into the pool. I continued to walk back to the room. I walked into the lobby and the phone started ringing. The lady at the desk picked it up. She asked my if I knew a Cory Matthews. She handed me the phone when I told her it was me.
"Hello?" I said into the phone. "Cory, listen. Topanga's dad beat her because she stood up to him. He beat her bad. She was admitted into the hospital. I know you're on vacation but it's bad, Cor."
I was in shock. My heart was pounding and I couldn't breathe. "Cor?" I swallowed hard. "I-I'll see if I can get back." I handed the woman the phone and told my parents I was gonna try to get back. After a long, hard, fight, they let me go.

I caught the last flight going out but I was stuck next to a crying baby and a fat, hairy, man who fell asleep on my shoulder.
I finally got back to Philly and I grabbed my luggage and ran to the hospital.

I was in the waiting room since they wouldn't let me in. I heard what sounded like a long beep coming from the hall. I then realized...
It was from Topanga's room.
