Exhilaration | Shawn Hunter [Boy Meets World]

At the Matthews home, Cory, Shawn and I were up in Cory's room studying for the SATs.

I sat on Cory's bed with my notebook in my lap while I knawed on the top of my pen, reviewing my notes.

"You know, I think I'm developing quite a knack for these scholastic aptitude tests, or I prefer to call them, SATs," Shawn told Cory and I.

"Okay, okay, here's another one," Cory began. "Verbal."

Shawn sat on the bed beside me. "It's how you talk and stuff. Keep 'em coming," he answered.

I let out a small chuckle, placing a hand on my boyfriend's knee. "No, Shawn, darling, he means the question is verbal," I tell him. "Means you answer it by speaking."

"Okay, 'Perigee is to apogee as zenith is to...A-Nadir, B-Cortex, C-Sulfur?'" Cory asked as Eric came into the room and Shawn stood beside Cory at his desk.

Shawn suddenly began to disfunction, groaning in pain and rubbing his temples.

I stood up, placing my notebook aside, wrapping my arms around Shawn, leading him to the window. "Come on, you're okay," I tell him before opening the window, kissing his cheek to which he climbed out. "I love you, I'll see you tomorrow," I call out before closing the window, sitting back on the bed, speaking to Cory, "So where were we?"

"A-Nadir. I'm right, aren't I?" Eric spoke up.

Cory grinned. "Yeah."

"Nice job, Eric," I tell him.

Eric shrugged. "First 2 times I took the SATs, I put down sulfur and cortex and we saw how well that worked for me."

"So a third date with Kelly tonight. How'd it go?" Cory asked his older brother.

"Uh, she took me back to her apartment," Eric answered.

Cory chuckled. "Wow. Details."

"Ooh, I don't know if I wanna know...details," I say, covering my ears.

"It's nothing too bad," Eric told me to which I lowered my hands. "Okay, nice apartment, hardwood floors, little kid, overlooking the park.,

"Whoa, whoa, who, Eric. How did she get an apartment overlooking the park?" Cory asked.

"Cory, he said little kid," Betty stated before looking to Eric. "She has a kid?"

Eric nodded as Cory kept asking, "Now, does she get the afternoon sun and everything?"

"Cory, Cory, Cory," Eric called. "If I'm gonna involve you in these adult conversations, you're gonna have to pick up on little key phrases like 'she has a kid'."

Cory caught on. "A kid, huh? Well, that kind of complicates things, doesn't it?"

Eric paused, "...Yeah. I mean, I guess, but we really like each other. That's all that matters, right? I mean, she's out in the real world. So am I. Got a good job, got me a nice house."
