"I can't believe it is Thanksgiving and my folks want nothing to do with us." Jackie said as she helped Kitty bake a pie.
"Sweetie you have me and Red." Kitty said as she looked at Jackie.
"See we have a set of parents to disapprove everything we do." I said as I looked at Jackie.
"You know I love you two." Kitty said as she looked at me. Then the doorbell rang. "I got it." Kitty said as she ran towards to living room.
"So, Steven what do you think of my new dress?" Jackie asked as she looked at me.
"I think you are beautiful." I said as I looked at her. She just smiled at me as she moved closer.
"Good answer." She said as she kissed me. She started to pull away, but I wrapped my arms around her. I kissed her again.
"Isn't this what got you two in this situation?" Eric asked as he came in the room.
"Shut up Forman." I said as I looked at him.
"You are telling me to shut up. I am stuck in the living room with grandma and grandpa and you are telling me to shut up." He said as he looked at me.
"Failing notice." I said as I looked at him. The other day he got a failing notice from our math teacher and forged Red's signature.
"Sorry, I can't just be a failure like you." He said as he looked at me.
"I am failing gym." I said as I looked at him. "No one gives a shit about gym." I said.
"They really don't." Jackie said as she wiggled out of my hold and walked over to the fridge.
"Can it Yoko!" Eric yelled as he looked at her.
"Steven!" Jackie squealed at me after he yelled at her.
"Dude, what did I tell you about being nice." I said as I looked at him. "Just apologize." I said as I looked at them.
"Sorry, Jackie." He said as he looked at her. Granted it came out hateful, but I could tell she was just messing with him. He would be on the floor if she was really upset.
"Apology expected Foreplay." Jackie said with a laugh as she called him what Casey used to.
"Come on, she can call me Foreplay, but I have to apologize." He said.
"Dude, she is very sensitive." I said as I looked at him. Jackie came over and handed me a root beer.
"Sensitive my ass." Eric said as we walked out into the living room.
"I cannot believe your daughter didn't even bother to call." Kitty said to Red as he sat up the table. "Now we are going to have an empty seat at the big table."
"No, we don't." Red said. "Steven and Jackie are going to be sitting at the adults table."
"Wow, I was finally going to be able to set at the big people table because Midge left." Eric said as he looked at Red.
"No, you are not. These two are adults now." Red said as he looked at me and Jackie.
"We are fine with sitting at the small table." Jackie said as she looked at Red.
"See that's what makes them worthy of the big table." He said to Eric and turned to Jackie. "You are sitting at the big table; don't pay attention to this baby." We ended up sitting on the steps watching Fez serve Burt drinks. That is when Laurie appeared.
"I am home." She said as she came busting in the front door.
"My baby came home." Kitty said as she ran over to hug Laurie.
"Are all the phone's broken in Chicago?" Red asked her.
"Well, I wasn't planning on coming, but my date… I mean business associate… wanted to be with his wife…I mean other business associate." I could feel Red's anger from the other side of the room.
"Well, I will set you a place right next to me." Kitty said with a smile.
"I have already gave that seat to Jackie." Red said. "Maybe some time at the kids table will cause you to grow up." He said to Laurie.
"Well, this is some turn of events." I said as I looked at Jackie. "We are the favorites." I said with a smile.
"Maybe I should have gotten Donna pregnant." Eric said as he stood in front of us.
"See that wouldn't work for you. They expect the worst out of me." I said as I looked at him. "You wouldn't be able to walk because Red stuck his foot so far up your ass."
"Damn, you have a point." He said as he looked at Donna as she walked in the room.
"What did I miss?" She asked as she walked over to us.
"Well, Burt here thinks Fez is a house boy and Laurie is currently the least favorite child." I said as I looked at her.
"Who is the favorite?" Donna asked.
"Do you really have to ask that?" Eric asked her.
"Well, congrates Steven." Donna said with a smile.
"Hey at least I am not on the bottom of the list for once." Eric said as he looked at us. That was about the moment at Kelso came in.
"Good afternoon, Mrs. Forman." He said as he walked in. "This is my date, Caroll." I felt my jaw drop as I looked at Ms. McGee standing in front of me.
"Kelso, you dating our math teacher." Eric said as he looked at Ms. McGee.
"I didn't see this one coming." Jackie said as she looked at me. "And people call me a slut."
"I didn't know that you all were related." Ms. McGee said as she looked at all of us.
"Oh, we aren't." Eric said. "Just like family. Well expect for those two." He said as he pointed to us.
"You two are brother and sister?" She asked as she looked at us.
"Gross, no!" Jackie said as she looked at her.
"They are married." Kelso said as he led Ms. McGee to the sofa.
"Michael, she is ten years older than you." Kitty said as she pulled Kelso away.
"Nine and five twelfths." He said with a smile. "She taught me that."
"Do you want something to drink?" Fez asked her.
"Oh no thank you." She said as she looked at him.
"So, you are with Kelso now. Yeah I have been there and done that." Laurie said as she sat down next to Ms. McGee.
"Wow, two sluts on one sofa." Donna said with a laugh.
"I don't think I will be able to think of her the same." I said as I looked at them. "Damn, math class is going to be awkward." I said as I looked at them.
"I am so glad I go to a different school. No nuns would show up here with Kelso." Donna said as she looked at us.
"I don't know. I think you are underestimating just how big of a male whore Kelso is." Eric said as he looked at all of us.
"Kitty!" We heard Bea yelling from the kitchen.
"You weren't kidding when you said she was a screamer." Jackie said as she looked at Eric. "She makes me seem nice."
"You are nice." I said as I wrapped my arms around her. Then the doorbell rang again.
"Now who could it be?" Red asked as he opened the door.
"Dude, is Hyde here man?" Leo asked as he stood in the doorway.
"Yeah come in. Steven your stoner is here." Red said as he looked at me.
"Leo dude, what are you doing here?" I asked him.
"The loud girl invited me." He said as he looked at Jackie.
"You invited him?" I asked her.
"He is family to you." She said as she looked at me. "To us." She said as she looked at me.
"You are amazing." I said to her.
"Kitty we need another setting." Red said.
"No dude, I like to eat on the floor." Leo said.
"Never mind." He said replied as he looked at his wife.
"Fez is getting wasted." Jackie said as she watched Fez drink another scotch.
"Yeah, that is going to be funny to see in a couple of hours." I said as I looked at him. "Just please god let the pants stay on." I said as I looked around the room. Everyone was here that was close to me. I looked over at Jackie and could tell that she was happy. We didn't need our parents when we have a family like this.
"Dude, what's under your shirt?" Leo asked Jackie.
"Nothing." She said as she looked at him.
"Damn you got big then." He said. She was barely showing, but for tiny little Jackie that was actually big.
"No, Leo that's the baby." I said as I place my hand on her stomach.
"Oh, when can I see the little dude?" He asked.
"In about six months." Jackie said with a smile. I watched as Leo walked away. "He is like a drunken uncle that means well." She said with a smile.
"Yeah, that sums it up. But, he tries to lift up your dress I will hit him." I said as I looked at her.
"Oh, dude I forgot I brought you something." Leo said as he pulled a camera out of his jacket. "Count it as a late wedding gift or early Christmas gift." He said. "I know you said you wished you had one because Jackie loves pictures." He said as he handed to me.
"Steven." She said as she looked at me. "I love you." She said as she took the camera.
"I know. I am just trying to figure out how he remembered that, but not the fact you are pregnant." I said as I looked at her.
"He has a lot of brain damage." She said as she looked at him.
"Well, go take pictures of our first thanksgiving." I said to her.
"You know this is our first Holiday as a married couple." She said with a smile.
"I know." I said as I looked at her. "And this is what we have to go through till we die." I said as I looked at everyone. It was about an hour later we sat down for dinner.
"Red." Kitty said as she handed him the craving knife.
"I think Steven should do this year." He said as he passed me the knife.
"You sure?" I asked as I looked at him.
"Go ahead son." He said as he looked at me.
"I just want to say one thing first." I said as I stood up. "I don't usually do this sort of thing, but I am speaking for both Jackie and I when I say it means a lot to look around this room and see all of you. It makes me realize who my real family is." I said as I cut into a bird.
"That was very nice, Steven." Kitty said as she looked at me.
"I have something I want to say too." Eric said as he stood up. "I actually want to make kind of an announcement." He said right before Kelso held his bead up to his face and started acting like bread man.
"Kelso, shut up." Donna said as she looked at Kelso then up at Eric.
"I am really happy to see my family and friends here. Well, even my math teacher." He paused. "Something happened a few days ago that I would like to share." He was cut off by Ms. McGee.
"Eric I thought we agreed not to." She said.
"Agreed not to what?" Red asked as he looked over at his son.
"Talk about how he is failing math!" Fez shouted.
"What?" Red asked as he looked at Eric.
"What the hell Fez." Eric said as he looked at our drunken foreigner.
"I have been drinking." Fez said as he looked down at his cup.
"Mr. Forman you did sign the failing notice." Ms. McGee said as she looked at Red.
"No, I didn't." He said as he looked at Eric. "You forged my signature." He said as he got up. Eric just sat down.
"Less than an hour and I am back on top." Laurie said as she looked at Eric.
"Not you're not. Hyde is." Eric said as he looked at me.
"Let's eat." Kitty said as she sat down.
"I can't believe the boy would lie to me." Red said as he looked at us.
"I have always said the boy is a bad seed." Bob said as he started pigging out.
"It's your daughter that made this happen. He spends all his time with her." Red said as he looked at Bob.
"Eric is the one who corrupted my daughter so much I had to spend her to catholic school." Bob said as he looked at Red.
"Will you two please knock it off?" Kitty asked.
"Burt, will you hand me your plate?" Bea asked as she poked her sleeping husband. "Burt?" She asked again. "BURT, HAND ME YOUR DAMN PLATE!" She yelled causing him to jump up and Jackie too.
"I just don't get how he could be failing math." Kitty said as she looked around.
"Kitty, I am sure he is doing the best he could for someone who was held to long as a baby." Bea said as she looked at Kitty.
"So, Jackie don't hold that kid too much. It could end up like Eric." Laurie chimed in from the other table.
"Can it Laurie." I said as I looked at Jackie who clearly didn't know what to say.
"Maybe I be excused?" Jackie asked as she looked at Red then Kitty.
"Jackie what's wrong?" Kitty asked as she looked at her. I could tell in her face she was feeling sick.
"Kitty stop bugging the girl. It's clear she is going to hurl." Red said as he looked at Jackie. "Go." He said. She did that walking into the kitchen to go down to our bathroom. For some reason she refuses to puke in the closer upstairs bathroom.
"I should go take care of her." I said as I got up. Red just nodded.
"I am not sure if I am going to like Thanksgiving's if they are all like this." She said as we came back up stairs. We sat back down just in time for everyone else to be done.
"Why don't you kids go down to the basement?" Kitty suggested as Red and Bob started to tear into each other again.
"Yeah, let's go." I said. Soon enough we were all done stairs.
"This was fun." Jackie said as she looked at me.
"No it wasn't." I said as I watched Kelso making out with Ms. McGee.
"You're right." She said as she looked at me. "Let's get out of here." She said as she got up.
"Okay." I said as she led me to the door. We end up just sitting in the back yard looking at the sky.
"Dude, have you seen my shoes?" Leo asked as he came out the door.
"No, I haven't." I said as I looked at him.
"Oh well." He said as she walked away.
"Do you worry about him?" She asked me.
"All the time." I said as I looked at her. I just held her close. "Then again I am pretty sure Fez is in one of your dresses right now." I said with a laugh.
"Now I will have to burn it." She said as she looked at me.
"Come on, let's go get a picture." I said as I got up.
"For blackmail?" She asked.
"Fez won't care. This is so we have proof he was always this fucked up." I said as we walked back in the house.
"Another thanksgiving come and gone." Kitty said as she put the food in the fridge as we walked through the kitchen.
"It was better than last year." Red said to her.
