I clear my throat "This is my fiance, Garrett McCoy, Garrett this is-"

"Cory Matthews, best friend, ex-boyfriends best friend,-"

"We get it Cory" Topanga cuts him off "Hi, I'm Topanga"

"What a unique name, I like it." Garrett says smiling brightly.

Cory pulls me away "What is this? This is unacceptable."  He whispers

"It's been thirteen years Cory. Shawn and I, are over. For good."

I turn to go back to Garrett as Shawn pulls me away, causing me to sigh.

"Let me guess, you're upset because I've been here for five hours and never once mentioned a fiance or even a boyfriend, right?"

He furrows his eyebrows "Yeah... How'd you-"

"I've known you forever, Shawn." I say

"Does this mean what you said earlier-"

"I don't know-"

"How do you not know?"

"I was swept up in the moment. I was happy to see you again and I may have forgotten -"

"Answer me this. Do you love him?"

"Yes? No? Maybe? I don't know." I bite my bottom lip, thinking on how until I saw Shawn, I was sure I had fell in love with Garrett

"Do you love me?"

"I- I," I decided to lie, to say I didn't, to say that he was a thing in the past "No... I don't"

It felt like right then and there, our hearts shattered into a billion pieces, in sync.

"Well then, Ok." Shawn quickly walks over to Cory, who was glaring at me harshly.

I felt like I was in the fourth grade again when I told Shawn I said I would go to the dance with Minkus.

I slummped over to Garrett, who was talking to Topanga.

"Oh, Babe just the person I wanted  to see" Garrett says, smile unwavering.

"Oh?"

"So what do you think of a new years wedding?"

"I- um, I think its less then a week awa-"

"Great, tomorrow you and Topanga should go dress shopping-"

"Tomorrow is Christmas, no one will be open"

"Right, the day after then."

"Garrett don't you think this is-"

"Fast? No, not at all. I mean we have been together for three and a half years. It's perfect. Infact, the ceremony can start on new years eve and at midnight we can say I do"

Sighing I nod

Garrett continues talking "Alright. I booked us a room since I figured you'd stay here but I thought we coul-"

"She's staying here." Cory says firmly

"And you're more than welcome to stay as well" Topanga pipes in kindly.

"Oh... Well I don't want to put you out so I'll just stay at my room, Y/n, you know where to find me."

With that he spun on his heel and left me with the gaping mouths of seven Matthews, One Hart, and one Hunter.

"Less then a week?" Shawn asks "Y/n, just break up with him."

"Yeah, Y'know Hunters right" Maya pipes in "If Shawn officially becomes my dad legally and you two marry, you'd be my step mom which would be awesome"

"Shawn. We've been over this. I love him, you and I, are over, just as we have been for thirteen years." I say, ignoring Mayas comment.

He takes a step back "Fine. Keep lying to yourself."

"Shawn-"

"No, it's obvious you moved on and I should too."

"No" I yell "You don't get to do this. You don't get to become angry because I chose my fiance over you. You don't get to get angry because I'm getting married in six days. And honestly it seemed like you moved on way before I ever did." I send him one last glare before leaving the apartment, hearing him call after me
