A/N: Hello lovely people! This is going to be the last chapter that I post for a while. I'm going to camp for four weeks starting tomorrow. But, I'll posting again starting August 10th.\

Thank you for all the reviews! They make me unbelievably happy.

I must warn you that this chapter is mostly dialog, and therefore may be a bit lacking in depth. Please don't hate me .

The next morning, the couple still couldn't stop smiling. They had defied the odds, doing something that neither of them thought was possible at first. All the work that they put in had been worth it. They knew that they needed to inform more people of their good news.

"So, how many of our Wisconsin friends do we have to call?" Eric asked over breakfast.

"Well, there's really just Kelso and Fez. Kelso's pretty good about telling us news. As for Fez-I don't know where the hell that kid went." Donna said, handing him a plate of French toast.

"Ah, alright. So we'll tell Kelso. And our parents of course." Eric concluded.

'"Yeah, that should be fine. Wow, I wonder how my dad will react to this." Donna stated.

"He'll probably rent a monkey or something," Eric joked. "But wow, do you realize how happy my mom is going to be? Dear god, she's going to spoil our kid rotten."

"He or she deserves it. We worked hard for this." Donna reminded.

"Damn right we did," Eric agreed. "Okay so, we're making phone calls as soon as we get home?"

"Right. God, I can't wait to tell my boss that I'll need maternity leave!" Donna squealed.

Eric nodded. "I can't wait to tell the kids in my class about the miracle of life,"

"Are you sure that they aren't too young for that?" Donna inquired.

"Donna, this is New York public school. These kids know more than their fare share about sex." Eric insisted.

"Yeah, actually, that makes sense. This is a pretty reckless city. Why are we raising a kid here again?" Donna asked.

"Because suburban living sucks," Eric reminded.

"Ah, that's right. Well, I'd better get off to work. Have a good day, sweetie." she kissed him on the cheek.

When Donna got home from work Eric was sitting on the couch, practically embracing the phone.

"What are you doing?" Donna laughed.

"I'm really excited about this, okay? I know that it's weird." Eric explained. "But oh boy, school was fun today. I teach some very crude third graders."

"Ooh, please tell," Donna sat down on the couch.

"Well first of all, I've never told you this before, but they gawk over the picture of you that I have on my desk. And not in a childish manner either. They constantly comment on your wonderful physical features." Eric said.

"Oh God. Aren't they like eight?" Donna asked.

"Eight, nine, eleven. There are some very stupid kids out there. But anyway, when I told them that I was going to be a dad, most of them didn't care. The ones that did were rowdy about it. That doesn't matter though." Eric informed.

"Wow, I never knew that your class was that unruly," Donna commented.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure that they give me the rambunctious kids on purpose. But anyway…," Eric held up the phone. "Let's get to this."

They called Kelso first. The phone rang with a crackling static for a while. Just before it went to the machine, he picked up. "Hello?"

"Hey Kelso. How are you?" Eric asked.

"Hey man! Well, I got fired from my job the other day. Apparently, it isn't funny to put firecrackers in the dog kennels. But anyway I'm-," Kelso started.

Donna put her hand over the receiver. "Why do our friends still act like they're 10?"

Eric sighed. "They're just dumber than us,"

"Ah, that's it," Donna pointed at him, as if to agree with his statement. "I wonder how Kelso lasted this long as a cop."

"Me too. But anyway, let's get to this. He can't talk forever." Eric and Donna put their ears back up against the phone.

"-and then I had to bury it. How are you guys?" Kelso finished.

"Wow, that's great man. We're doing fantastic. We called because we have some great news." Eric stated.

"Donna finally got knocked up, didn't she?" Kelso guessed.

The couple were stunned for a moment. They couldn't believe that their dumbest friend had been able to guess their news so quickly.

"Woah, I guess that you aren't a complete idiot. But yeah, I am very much pregnant." Donna announced.

"Hey, I'm not just a pretty face," Kelso said. "Congratulations guys. Parenthood can be tough, but it is so rewarding."

"Thanks man. Well, we just called to tell you that. We've got a few more people to inform." Eric was about to hang up.

"Wait!" Kelso shouted. "Can I be in the delivery room when your kid is born?"

Eric and Donna gave each other confused looks.

"Umm, is that even a thing?" Eric asked.

"Yeah man! Plenty of people do that." Kelso claimed.

"We'll think about it. Now we've gotta go." Donna hung up the phone. She glanced at Eric. "So..."

"Okay, I do not want Kelso in the room when our kid is born," Eric stated.

"Me neither. But I'm sure that most of our friends will want to be there." Donna said.

"Ah damn, you're right. Well, is that really a bad thing?" Eric wondered.

"No, it's touching, actually. So, what the hell? They're all welcome." Donna professed.

"Okay. Wow, we're 27, and we still can't go anywhere without our gang." Eric laughed.

"Yeah, but that's something to be proud of. Not a lot of people remain close to their friends after high school." Donna mentioned. "But anyway, let's get to calling my dad."

"Oh God, Bob," Eric shuddered. "He's going to make weird jokes."

"I know," Donna sighed as she dialed. "I'll try to keep this as short as I can."

After a few rings, Bob picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Hey dad," Donna greeted.

"Donna! How are you?" Bob asked.

"Pretty good. How's Florida?" Donna inquired.

"It's nice," Bob answered.

"That's good. Dad, we called you because we have some important news." Donna declared.

"What is it?" Bob sounded apathetic.

"I think that you'll want to hear this, sir," Eric insisted.

"We're having a kid!" Donna announced.

There was a pause for a moment. "My baby girl is pregnant?" Bob said with a tone of shock. "I think that I'm gonna cry."

"Oh Bob," Eric chuckled.

"Hey, don't you say anything, smart ass! This is one of the proudest moments of my life." Bob sniffled.

"Thank you dad," Donna blushed.

"No, thank you Donna! I get to be a pop-pop." Bob praised.

"Yes, this is a great thing for all of us. We expect that you'll want to be there, so the due date is December 21st." Eric informed.

"I can't wait. I'm glad that the two of you won't be childless." Bob stated.

"We are too. Well, that's all that we had to say. Have a good evening, dad." Donna hung up. She sighed with exhaustion, resting her head on Eric's shoulder. "I'm glad that's over with. I wonder how Bob is going to act around our kid."

"He'll be a clown, literally," Eric commented. He twirled Donna's hair for a while, and thought about how everyone else would treat their child. "Oh God, how is Red going to act around our kid?"

Donna laughed. "Well, I hope that he won't call our kid a dumbass every 10 seconds." She yawned. "Thank God we only have one more person to call."

"Yep, and this call is going to be my favorite! But let's make this simple." Eric stated.

Donna nodded in agreement as she dialed the phone. "Your mom is going to freak out the most anyway,"

Donna and Eric squeezed each other's hands as the phone rang.

"Hello?" Kitty answered.

A bit smile crept over Donna's face."They were wrong,"

"Okay, not that simple," Eric whispered to Donna.

"It's better than dragging it out," Donna whispered back in response.

"Oh, hi Donna! Who's wrong?" Kitty asked.

"The doctors," Donna said.

Kitty gasped. "Does that mean-,"

"I'm going to be a dad!" Eric screamed. Donna looked at him with distaste.

"What, you got to say it all of the other times!" Eric argued.

Kitty started weeping. "Oh wow. I knew that things would work! I'm so happy for the two of you."

"We're really happy too," Donna began to shed some tears.

"You'll have to see me before he or she is born. I'll want to see that big belly of yours. Gosh Donna, that feeling of having life inside of you is euphoric." Kitty said. "And that's not a crazy thing to say! You'll know exactly what I mean in a couple of months."

Eric was crying now too. "Damn it mom, you've made me all emotional! But we are overjoyed about this."

"And you should be. This is almost a miracle." Kitty said. "Eric, your father is out right now, but I'll tell him about this later. I'm sure that he'll be happy too."

"Alright," Eric replied. "Well, we should probably go clean up our faces. I love you, mom."

"I love you too, honey. And thank you for giving this to me. I don't know where the hell your sister is, but she sure does have a lot of explaining to do." Kitty stated.

"Hey, you never know. She probably has some bastard children of her own." Eric half-joked.

"Oh God, I hope not," Kitty laughed nervously. "Well, you two have a wonderful trip ahead of you. I'll try to visit you in the next nine months."

"You're welcome whenever, Mrs. Forman. Have a good evening." Donna placed the phone back on its receiver.

"Phew, all that talking made me tired," Eric exhaled.

"Me too," Donna leaned back on the couch. "Let's never call three people at once again,"

"Agreed. Now, let's lie in bed and look at the stars." Eric advised.

"Stars?" Donna questioned.

"Stars, city pollution, whatever," Eric kissed her.

"We didn't eat yet," Donna reminded.

"Oh, damn," Eric punched the couch. "Can we just eat crackers in bed or something?"

Donna grinned. "That sounds absolutely perfect,"

The couple took a box of Triscuits and their spirits up into bed with them. The first step of this adventure had begun, and they had no idea how much happiness would befall them over the next few months.
