I do not own that 70's show.

That Donna and Kelso story
Chapter one (what brings you to California)
Donna's POV

We arrived in southern California at six in the morning. It was still early so Kelso and I went for breakfast.

"Hey Donna, how do you think they get the yokes out of the eggs to make egg whites?" He asked pointing at the sign advertising egg white omelets. I looked out the window not really wanting to talk to him, but wanting to sit and think about Eric and the fact that we could never get back together, because of what I saw in the basement the day after Casey dumped me. "Are you still upset about Casey and Eric?' Kelso asked concerned.

'Yes I mean it's not every day you walk into a room and find your two ex-boyfriends making out," I said starting to sob. Kelso parked the van and wrapped his arms around me.

"It's ok," he whispered.

I got annoyed. I don't know why but I got annoyed. " Is that all you can say?"

"Damn Donna," he said moving away from me. "What else do you want me to say? I just found out that my brother and my best friend are lovers. My ex-girlfriend loves Fez now and not me, which is weird because Jackie doesn't like foreign exchange students."

I turned around in my seat. "You're not the only one who was hurt, after I walked out of the basement that day, I walked home and found my father in bed with Laurie." I moved closer and put my arm around him. " Kelso I didn't mean to snap at you. We've both experienced a lot of pain and heartache."

"Donna I think we should go have breakfast," he said getting out of the van.

Things started to change when Hyde ran off to New York with a punk girl he met at the hub, we haven't seen or heard from him in a year. It seems that everything that has happened to Kelso and I has changed both of us a little. We've kind of become closer during this road trip. He still tries to hit on me every now and then. At first I hated it and pushed him away, but the further we got away from Point Place the more I gave in and now I think I'm starting to like Michael Kelso.

We arrived at my mom's place; which was a small one-story beach house in Malibu. We got out and walked to the front door. I knocked on the door and seconds later I heard the door open and my mom appeared, warring an old Pink Floyd shirt and a pair of man's boxer shorts.

"Oh Kelso and Donna, how wonderful to see you" she said cheerfully, "come on in, what brings you to California?" She asked. My mom led us into the living room witch was the same size as Eric's basement, but looked and smelled a lot better. The furniture was small and looked as though it came with the house.

"We both kind of ran away from Point Place," Kelso said as we sat down on the couch. Looking to my left I saw a small thirteen-inch TV on top of an old end table.

" Well, you two want something to drink?"

"Yes" we said in unison. with that she went to the kitchen. I watched her walk through a door way covered by a beaded Curtain, to the right of the door were three other doors. One was open to reveal a bathroom, the other two on either side of the bathroom were closed, and I assumed they were bedrooms. My mom walked in carrying two bottles of water.

"Here you go, oh crap I have to go wake Steven so he can get ready for work."

"Mom who's Steven?"

"Oh I forgot you've never met my boyfriend Steven, well you'll meet him when he gets up." She said walking into the bedroom to the left of the bathroom. After she left the room once again I picked up a photo packed on the coffee table and opened it. The first photo was of my mom sitting on a beach chair sporting a white tube top, blue benumb shorts, and sunglasses. But something my mom had on her made me look at the picture for a long time. On her chest above the tube top was a tattoo, the tattoo said Zen master two.

"Hey Donna what are you looking at?"

"This picture of my mom, take a look at it." I said handing it to Kelso. I looked at the next picture and gasped with shock and recognition of the man in the photo. He was standing in the same spot the beach chair had been before; he had on a pair of jeans, old brown boots, and was holding a black T-shirt. On his chest he also had a Zen master tattoo but with the number 1. That's not what made me recognize him. I knew who it was. It was Hyde.

"Can I see the next picture?" Kelso asked.

"Yes," he took the picture from me. I looked down at the next one on the pile, even more shocking then the last. It was my mom still in the tube top and shorts standing on the board walk, Hyde stood behind her with his arms wrapped around her, and they were both smiling at the camera.

"Hyde?" I heard Kelso say. "I thought he was in New York?"

"I thought he was too, here take this." I said handing the photo to him. The next photo was of my mom and Hyde standing by my mom's car making out. This made it very obvious to me that my mom's boyfriend Steven is in fact Hyde. My mom and Hyde coming into the room interrupted us.

"Hey guys, what's up?" Hyde asked sitting on a recliner across from the couch,

"I see you're looking at the pictures of me and Steven at the beach," my mom said sitting on Hyde's lap.

"Hyde I thought you were in New York?" Kelso asked.

"Yeah what happened with you and Chrissy?" I added. Hyde got all serious; my mom put her hand on Hyde's back and started to rub it slowly.

"It's a long story but I'll tell it anyway," Hyde said. "Everything was going great when we first got there. Then soon after her band started, she got a call from someone in California about a drummer for the band. So she and I came out here to check him out. Well she starts fooling around with the guy and ditches me, doesn't even tell me; just leaves I hear with no money." Kelso and I sat there without speaking just taking in what we've just heard.

"So how did you and my mom end up living together?" I asked.

My Mom thought for a while then said. "I had just moved here and was looking for a place to live. One day I saw that this house was for rent so I decided to rent it. The only problem was that someone else wanted it and it cost too much to rent on my own. So after finding out the perosn who wanted the hosue was Steven. I whent to the recoud store down the street from here, where he works, and asked if he wanted to rent the place with me."

"So I said yes, and the rest is history."

"When did you two start to do it?" Kelso asked moving closer to the edge of the couch

"Shut it you dill hole," I said smacking him upside the head.

"That was soon after we moved in together," Hyde said pulling my mom closer to him and kissing her. After they broke apart Hyde said, "Go see if the mail came yet, I'm waiting for my pay check."

"Ok" Midge said getting up to leave.

"Hay mom I'll go with you," I said following her out of the room. Once outside I lightly grabbed her arm, and said. " Mom, what the hell?"

"Excuse me," she said.

"Finding out about you and Hyde shocked and upset me, and what's up with the Zen master tattoo?"

"I was a little sad because it was the day that would have been my wedding anniversary, so to cheer me up Steven and I went to the beach. Before that we went to this place to get tattoos. Ok now it's my turn to ask questions," she said walking to the end of the driveway. "Why did you and Kelso run away from Point Place?"

"The first reason is that I found dad and Laurie Forman in a compromising position. But before that on that same day I found out that Eric and Kelso's brother Casey are gay lovers."

"Oh, both the Forman kids have gone wiled, how have Red and Kitty been taking this?"

"Red had a heart attack and kitty had a stroke," I said seriously. Midge stepped back a shocked look on her face.

"Are they going to be ok?" She asked tears welling up in her eyes.

"Mom there going to be ok, it was a mild hart attack and stroke. They're recovering and staying in Florida with his brother for the summer." I tried to stay strong while telling her this and not cry, but it was impossible. I turned away from her and started to cry. My mom came up to me and put her arms around me.

"Donna it's ok. You can stay here for the summer."

"Thanks mom that's wonderful, but I was kind of hoping to move here and live with you."

"Donna go stand by Kelso's van," my mom said pointing in the direction of the van. I walked over and waited, she took the mail out of the box and stood there for what seemed like years, then she walked over to me. "I don't think that's a really good idea."

" What do you mean?"

"Let me explain," she looked down for a minute then back up at me, "what I mean is I want you to live with me, but I don't want you to feel uncomfortable having to live with me and my boyfriend who also happens to be a friend of yours and the same age as you."

"What am I going to do?" I looked at her tears running down my face.

"First of all what's Kelso going to do?"

"He has an aunt who lives in the next town over, he is going to see if he can live with her."

"Ok I have to think about this and talk to Steven and see what he thinks then I'll let you know at the end of the summer."

"Mom that would be great, thank you." I said smiling.

"Lets go see what Steven and Kelso are up to."

"Ok" I said. We both walked back inside.
