"ooh. i just want to hear the guitar solo one more time." jackie said as everyone groaned.

"not again. use the headphones." hyde said.

jackie plugged in the headphone and put them on her ears.

"good. now, wrap the cord around your neck." hyde said.

"hey, would you guys respect me if i worked in the town dump?" eric asked making isabella laugh.

"the town dump? no. now, the state dump..." donna said.

"that's where it's at." isabella joked.

"why are you looking for a job?" donna asked him.

"everything costs money. gas, clothes, fun." eric said.

"dates. dates cost money." kelso said.

"no, kelso, that is prostitution." fez said.

"dating is prostitution, man. only you don't always get what you pay for." hyde said.

"said the man who's never had a girlfriend." donna said.

"burn." isabella said.

"what, you guys don't remember esther, the biker chick?" hyde asked.

"right, esther." isabella said.

"hey, whatever happened to her?" eric asked.

"she's dating my uncle." hyde said.

"wow, classy." isabella said while reading a magazine.

"well, i'm going home for dinner. oh, by the way, mom and dad are going to the playboy club at lake geneva this weekend. do you guys want souvenirs?" donna asked the boys.

"ooh, ashtrays." hyde said.

"a woman." fez said.

"your parents are going to be out of town? really?" jackie asked donna.

"yeah. i mean, i'll be babysitting my sister tina all weekend. just me. alone. watching tv. i might order a pizza." donna said glancing down at eric.

"i got an idea! we'll have a party at donna's. a toga party!" kelso said.

"oh, boy." isabella mumbled.

"michael! michael! maybe donna doesn't want to throw a party. maybe she wants to be alone." jackie said.

"yeah, just me, alone. if someone happens to stop by, that'd be pretty cool." donna said looking back at eric.

"so we're on. i'll bring the beer!" kelso said.

"kelso, shut up." isabella told him.

"donna, i have never been to an american party. may i come?" fez asked her.

"uh, yeah, i don't care. uh, so, uh, eric, are you gonna be there?" donna asked him.

"what? yeah. sounds fun." eric replied.

"cool. catch you guys later." donna said before she left.

"party at donna's." kelso cheered before jackie hit eric and him in the head.

"you are both so stupid." jackie told them.

"ow!" they both said.

"why?" eric asked before jackie left the basement.

"well, this is a first. i actually agree with jackie." hyde said shivering.

"yeah, me too." isabella said with a cringe.

"what? you're saying that i'm stupid?" eric asked.

"silly little eric." isabella said.

"donna just put on the full court press, man, and you dropped the ball." hyde said.

"what are you talking about? all she said was that she'd be alone saturday night with a pizza. oh, god, i'm so stupid." eric said.

"thank god you realize it." isabella said before eric threw his newspaper at her.

-

hyde, donna and isabella were left alone in the basement.

"so big party saturday night." hyde said.

"whoopee." donna said unenthusiastically.

"woah, don't get too excited now donna." isabella joked.

"i can't believe forman missed all of those signals." hyde said.

"what signals?" donna asked.

"oh, no. poor me, all alone in my big house. just me and my nightie. if only there was some scrawny little neighbor boy here." hyde said in a girls voice.

"he's not scrawny. you know, why am i even talking to you guys?" donna asked.

"we're all you've got." hyde said.

"oh, my god. so everybody knows?" donna said laying her head on isabella's shoulder.

"i'm afraid so." hyde said.

"hey, it's okay." isabella told her.

"i just wanted to spend some time with him alone, and now i can't." donna said.

"how does that make you feel?" hyde asked her.

"frustrated. it's frustrating as hell. i mean, i really put myself out there." donna said.

"i see. and do you have trouble sleeping at night?" hyde asked.

"sometimes, yeah, i do." donna replied.

"do you think you'd sleep better if you had a scrawny little neighbor boy up next to you?" hyde asked making donna frustrated.

"it was going so well." isabella said.

-

everyone, minus donna, went to fatso burger to visit eric at his new job.

they hadn't seen him the last few days since he had been working all the time.

"hear, hear, my minimum waged friend, i demand service." hyde said slamming his hands on the counter.

"welcome to fatso burger. how may i serve you?" eric asked.

"that is so sad, burger boy." hyde said.

"nice uniform." isabella said teasing eric.

-

everyone was at donna's party besides eric who was still at work.

"toga! toga! toga!" kelso shouted wearing a white toga.

"hey, man, nice dress." hyde said.

"you brought three beers, meathead?" hyde said.

"we'll share." kelso said.

"here's to our wasted youth, huh?" hyde said as they all opened a beer besides jackie and isabella.

"hey, fez." donna said once she saw him walk over.

"good evening, donna. which of these ladies are easy?" fez asked.

"don't answer." isabella said.

"donna, some of your creepy friends are using dad's stereo." tina said.

"you guys, no ones allowed in the house!" donna shouted.

"hello, pretty lady." fez said to tina.

"hi!" tina replied.

"she's not a pretty lady, she's my sister, and she's 14." donna said.

"you know in my country-" fez began.

"it's illegal here." hyde said cutting fez off.

"oh, i see." fez said before tina walked away.

"i'm miserable this party sucks!" donna said.

"you know what'll make you feel better? a scrawny little neighbor boy. why don't you take off, go see him, bella and i will watch the kids, huh?" hyde said.

"of course." isabella said.

"yeah. thanks, guys." donna said before hyde burped.

"you're welcome." hyde replied.

"can i get some of that?" isabella asked referring to his beer.

"here." hyde said passing her his beer.

"thank you good sir." isabella said before taking a few sips.

"you're welcome mi'lady." hyde replied.

-

when most of the people had left, isabella got up since she thought she'd head home.

"you going home?" hyde asked her.

"yeah, hopefully i can sneak in before my parents notice i'm gone." isabella said.

"hey, let me walk you." hyde said as isabella nodded.

the two of them decided to walk since isabella only lived a few houses down the street from eric.

isabella felt the cold midnight air on her face as they made their way to her front step.

"here you are, home safe and sound." hyde said as isabella giggled.

"thanks, hyde." isabella replied before she kissed his cheek.

"goodnight, bella." hyde said.

"goodnight, stevey." isabella replied before she walked through the front door.
