Later guys. Eric Forman said to his best friends Kelso, Hyde, Jackie, Donna, and Fez as they left the basement from their night of fun and went to take the party elsewhere.


Walking upstairs, Eric noticed something odd. Okay, here's the oh-so-odd scenario. It was midnight on the last day of school/first day of summer break. Eric's parents, Red and Kitty were sitting at the table, talking. The odd part is they were talking without argument. It sounded as if they were actually, dare I say or dare Eric saw, they were actually agreeing on something. Wow! Astounding, right? Yep.


Eric, we need to tell you something, honey. said Eric's mother Kitty.


Is everything okay? Eric curiously asked. He was beginning to get nervous. Maybe they found something in his room, like his magazines or videos. Or maybe they found something out between him and Donna. None of this was correct.


Yes, everything's too fine. said his dad, Red. He had a smile, big and relaxed upon his face. This was unlike anything Eric had ever seen before. I mean, come on. His dad hadn't even threatened to shove anything in his ass yet.


Well then tell me. Eric said impatiently. Whatever it was, he was beginning to get very impatient and nervous. Then when his dad began to speak, his heart jumped...


Eric, your mother and I have decided that we're sick of this hellhole of a home. We're going to Hawaii for 3 months, all of summer, just me and your mom. his dad said, beginning to retain his own way of speech.


I'm not going? Good. said Eric.


Watch your manners, kid. We're giving you some slack. You have the house to yourself all summer, said his dad. At this, Eric began to grin the widest grin he had ever forced his face muscles to grin.


said Eric, trying to keep his enjoyment hidden because he knew that his dad had some sort of downside.


The only thing we ask of you is to have the house clean. We want to come home and sit. No cleaning. Then we'll get back to normal life. said his mom, speaking up a bit.


Eric's grin began to fade a little. Then he realized what freedom he had and began to grin again.


Well then I guess I'll have to be a good little boy then. Eric said as his sarcastic self.


Watch your mouth or I'll shove this shoe so far up your ass it'll liquefy out of your nose. said his dad threateningly.


Okay Dad. So when are you leaving? he asked anxiously. He wanted them to leave now but he figured three months, around 90 some days, what the hell, a few days won't kill me.


We're leaving tomorrow morning, or this morning at 7 for the Milwaukee National Airport. All ~*~of our stuff is packed and we're ready to go! cheerfully said Eric's mom.


Hmm, well have fun. I'm going up to my room. Later. Eric said.

Picking up his telephone, which was designed in multi-colored peace signs and had a sticker of a nude model on it, he dialed the numbers of all of his friends and he told them about the whole trip and how he had the house to himself all summer.
