Beth ended up back at home at eight that night. Hanging out with her friends at the Peach Pit was great, but she needed to go back home to get some work done.
" I'm home," Beth said coming in the door.
" Hey princess," Beth father said coming up and hugging her, " Did you have a good time?"
Beth just shook her head happily.
" I'm glad you made some friends," her father Greg said, " It makes me happy to know you are. I've talked to your mother too about that party."
" And?" Beth asked.
" You can go," Greg said, " But you have to be home before midnight."
Beth hugged her father tight, " Thank you daddy," she said, " I will behave myself."
" Scott respects you," Greg said, " I'm sure your other friends do too."
" I should go make some phone calls," Beth said, " I love you both."
" And we love you," Greg said, " Go make your calls."
Beth went upstairs and picked up the phone to call Scott to let him know she could go to Donna's party tomorrow night.
" That's great," Scott said, " I'll pick you up or rather David will.'
" I have to be home before midnight tough," Beth said.
" Yeah me too," Scott said, " I can let the others know?'
" No I want to," Beth said, " But thanks anyway."
" I'll see you at school tomorrow," Scott said,." Goodnight."
" Goodnight Scott, I love you," Beth said hanging up.
Beth had to talk to Donna, but didn't get an answer.
" I'll talk to her at school," Beth said.
Beth then got herself ready for bed, tomorrow was going to be an exciting day.
Beth got to school early the next day. She first saw Kelly and Brandon in the hallway talking. She slowly walked up to them, trying not to be noticed.
" Hey Beth," Brandon said.
" Rats," Beth said, " You caught me."
" Were you trying to sneak up on us?" Kelly asked.
" Guilty," Beth said, " I'm just so happy."
" Well you do have a cute boyfriend," Kelly joked looking at Brandon.
Beth just started laughing, " Brandon is pretty cute himself," she said.
Brandon put an arm around Beth, " So what are you so happy about?" he asked.
" Donna's party," Beth answered.
" You can come?" Donna asked coming up with David, " I didn't mean to overhear."
Beth shook her head with great happily.
" Your dad is letting you go?" David asked.
" I have to be home by midnight," Beth said, " But my dad is letting me come."
Someone snuck up behind Beth and covered her eyes.
" Guess who?" she heard.
" Dylan," Beth answered.
Her eyes were uncovered and Beth turned to see it was Dylan.
" How did you know it was me?" Dylan asked.
" Not to embarrass you," Beth said, " Your sexy voice. I like it."
Dylan then walked away and stood next to Brandon.
" So the party starts at seven," Donna said, " And please no booze."
" If there's going to be that," Beth said," Then I can't come."
" Don't worry there won't be," Brandon said, " I don't like it either."
Scott then suddenly came up and put his arms around Beth, she slightly screamed.
" Hey Beth," Scott said, " I didn't mean to scare you."
" It's okay," Beth said giving him a quick kiss on the cheek, " I think I'll go to class. I have that art project to work on."
" You do good work," Kelly said, " Don't worry."
" I second that," Andrea said coming up with Steve behind her, " Your writing and designing skills. Brillant."
" Thanks," Beth said, " See you later."
Scott smiled as Beth walked away.
" Hey Scott, my man," David said putting an arm around him, " You are one lucky guy. Beth is such a sweetie."
" And so is Donna," Scott said," Where's Brenda?"
" At home sick," Dylan said, " She still might be able to come tonight, it depends on how she feels."
" Bummer," Brandon joked.
