Disclaimer: I own absolutely nothing!

Author's Note: Hello all! I am soo sorry for the late update things just got crazy over here with three sick people in the house over the weekend and a butload of work to do for college algebra and now I've got some college registrations and finding out a few other stuff for it. Ugh my head. Anywoo enough of my complaining. I am so grateful for all the reviews you guys, you all are awesome! Now just some quick notes. This chapter is long I know, not the longest but a close second. Hope this won't discourage you from leaving reviews. I just couldn't cut it and I figured since I made you wait a day, a little more to the chapter wouldn't hurt. Second. There's a scene in here that I got almost directly from 'Two Weeks' the movie. It's the one with medical terms. I don't own that movie…I mean I own the DVD but that's it. And lastly, I am not a doctor or a nurse or anything in the medical field…although this weekend I did take care of a few sick patients.

"That was a good lunch, Mom."

"Well thank you, Steven." Kitty responded with a smile.

Suddenly there was a loud snore like sound heard and both Hyde and Kitty turned their attention to the direction the noise had come from. Sure enough the noise had been a snore, made by Red Forman as he slept peacefully in his chair.

Hyde smirked and left the camera on Red for a few more seconds, an opportunity like this was too good to waste.

"Guess Red thought so too." Hyde commented and then moved the camera back to his surrogate mother.

Kitty smiled in return, but then remembered something she had to tell Hyde, "Oh Steven, could you turn off the camera in a little bit? I need to put the leftovers away for Jackie." she explained, "It's a shame she couldn't come home for lunch today."

"Yeah," he agreed in a sarcastic tone, "A real shame."

"Steven." Kitty slightly scolded while sending him a warning look.

"What? I'm agreeing with you." Hyde said trying his best to sound innocent.

Kitty shook her head, still not looking very pleased, "Don't you have some questions to ask me?"

"Yeah, yeah." He nodded and then took a few seconds to try and recall one of the questions he and Jackie had come up with the night before.

"Um now that you're on the other side and you're the patient…the one being taken care of." Hyde started his question, "What do you think of the doctors and nurses that are helping you out?"

"Well unlike Red, who thinks they're just a bunch of dumbasses, I think they're wonderful and really are a big help." She answered, "Of course I already knew most of the nurses and a few of the doctors from when I was working at the hospital, but there are a few new people I've met…"

"Like Angela." Hyde interrupted.

A large smile wanted to come out, but Kitty tried her best to restrain it as she nodded her head, "Yes, like Angela."

"Right." Hyde agreed, trying to sound casual, "What do you think of Angela?"

"She's very nice. She's been with us since almost the beginning hasn't she?" Kitty asked with a small frown but didn't let Hyde answer, "I think she's a very nice young woman. She's friendly and very caring. I like her." she paused for a few seconds before her smile grew a bit more, "But I think the more important question is, what do you think of Angela?"

"I think you better put those leftovers away for Jackie now. We don't want them to go bad or she won't eat and that girl is too skinny…"

Kitty just laughed as she watched her second son ramble on while avoiding her question.

~*~

Inside the Forman kitchen, Kelso and Fez were seated at the round table.

Neither of them spoke a word. They just stared at each other, giving the other different looks; both of them had their cheeks expanded with the air they were holding in them.

Fez's eyes were wide and were beginning to water, as he clutched onto the edge of the table. He didn't want to loose! But his competition was tough. Kelso sat in front of the foreign man with his arms crossed and a smug look on his face as he kept his cheeks inflated as well. It was clear that holding his breath like this was a piece of cake for him.

It was this scene that welcomed Eric as he walked into the kitchen. His arms were definitely full. A medium sized plastic bag hung on his wrist and a tray, holding four cups of coffee, was in each of his hands.

"Hey guys." He greeted as he placed the trays on the counter.

Silence.

Eric frowned and turned back to his friends, "I said 'hey guys,'" he repeated, "now you say 'hi' back."

Fez nor Kelso looked his way. Fez's grip on the table tightened while Kelso raised both his eyebrows a few inches—he was gonna win!

Eric was still confused by why his friends weren't greeting him. He would understand if one of them were Hyde, but this was Kelso and Fez. There was almost no shutting them up!

He walked closer to the table and looked from Kelso to Fez, his brows knitting closer and closer together. Why did they have their cheeks out so big? It looked like they were holding their breaths… And then it hit him. This was Kelso and Fez! Two kids who loved playing games that showed they were better than the other.

Even though he had figured up just what it was his pals were up to, Eric didn't want them to continue on with their game. It was too quiet in the kitchen and he got enough of that in Seattle. Plus there was the fact that Fez's face was starting to turn a little blue.

"Guess no one gets the candy I was going to give the person who first said 'hi' to me." He said with a slight shrug and a fake disappointed tone of voice.

The two men with large puffed out cheeks looked over at Eric with shocked expressions. Suddenly there was a gasp of air.

"Hi Eric!" a foreign accent exclaimed and then started to pant a bit, "Now where is my candy?"

Eric smiled down at his friend and slapped his back, "Later, Fez."

This did not please Fez and his face showed it

"Not later." He replied in a firm voice, "Now you sonofabitch!"

"Fez, it's like ten in the morning." Eric reminded after taking a quick glance at his wristwatch.

"Yes, and breakfast is the most important meal of the day." Fez began, "And I wanted that meal to be candy!"

Eric shook his head, "I'll bring you some candy later on Fez."

"Hmmph." Fez answered as he crossed his arms, "Well it better be good."

"Ok." Eric sighed.

"And very sweet."

"Fine."

"And chocolaty."

"Alright!" Eric almost shouted, frightening Fez just a bit, but not too much because a few seconds later his smile slowly reappeared.

"Ok." Fez nodded.

Shaking his head again, Eric was obviously annoyed by the whole bag of candy. Of course he really had no one to blame but himself. He should've known better than to joke about having candy with Fez.

"So why were you guys holding your breath?" he finally asked.

Fez just shrugged his shoulder, "We were bored."

Eric nodded understandingly at Fez but when he turned to look at Kelso his confused frown reappeared. Kelso still had his cheeks looking like a chipmunk's.

"Kelso, man Fez already started breathing." Eric said in a bit of a slowly paced voice, "You won."

"He has been holding his breath for almost three minutes." Fez informed as he looked at his watch, "He has proven that not only is he very man pretty, he is also very talented."

At first, Eric had been amazed at his friend's ability to hold his breath for that long. It was pretty amazing…almost too amazing. Taking a step closer to Kelso, Eric scowled and tilted his head to the left just a bit. Then he placed his index finger and thumb over Kelso's nose and pinched it shut.

Not two seconds later, Kelso's eyes bulged out and he quickly swatted Eric's hand away.

"What are you trying to do kill me or something?!" he exclaimed, "God, Eric!"

"Yeah, real talented." Eric scoffed towards Fez.

Fez glared at the handsome man sitting infront of him, "You sonofabitch!" he hissed, "You were not holding your breath at all!"

"Yeah, I was!" Kelso argued, "I was holding it in my cheeks! And I was letting go of it through my nose!"

"That is not what we agree on!"

"Well it's not what we didn't agree on!" Kelso shot out.

Eric frowned with confusion as he tried to figure out what exactly Kelso had just said. But he didn't get the chance to replay the words in his head because Fez had started up again.

"You are a cheater!" he declared

"You're foreign!"

"What the hell does that have to do with you trying to kill me?!" Fez loudly asked, "Making me hold my breath while you were breathing away! I turned blue! And you know blue is not my color!"

"That's true." Kelso nodded before realizing what had been said before, "Hey I didn't try to kill you, if anyone tried to kill anyone it was Eric trying to kill me when he pinched my nose!"

By now, Kelso's anger had been moved over from Fez and to Eric. He frowned at the once twitchy, skinny, man.

"That hurt man!" he shouted.

"Yes." Fez agreed, slowly beginning to see Kelso point. "He was also the one who made me loose and all for some fake candy!"

Eric rolled his eyes, he couldn't believe how immature these guys still were. Ok yeah he could.

"Fez I…"

Before Eric could finish, Fez raised up his left hand, "I said fake candy!"

With that said, Fez turned around in his seat; so that he was facing away from Eric, giving him his backside. Seconds later, Kelso crossed his arms over his chest and did the same as Fez.

Eric stared at the back of his friends' heads. Great two more people that were mad at him, just when he thought things would start getting better. Who was he kidding, he was Eric Forman, nothing ever got better for him and if they did it was only a matter of time before something came to ruin it all.

He sighed slightly, he didn't want more people upset with him. He didn't want anyone upset with him. But working things out with these two characters would probably be easier than trying to fix things with the others.

"Come on you guys, don't be mad." Eric tried as he placed a hand on each of the men's shoulder.

They both shrugged them off.

Eric looked down at his empty hands and then at his angry friends and then he remembered something. He walked over to the counter where he had left the coffee and plastic bag he had brought back with him. Quickly he took out the item from the bag and made his way back to Fez and Kelso.

Eric grinned as he opened the box in his hands, "I got doughnuts!"

Through the corners of their eyes, Kelso and Fez exchanged a look. Then they looked up at the box of doughnuts Eric had. Then back at each other.

"So you tried to kill me, you're not the first guy!" Kelso said with a small shrug before reaching for the box and taking it out of Eric's hands.

"I still want my candy." Fez stated as he looked at the assorted pastries.

Eric smirked, "Sure thing, Fez."

He was glad Fez and Kelso weren't mad at him anymore. And it was all thanks to a box of doughnuts. If only doughnuts could fix all his other problems. Speaking of his other problems, where was everyone else?

"Hey guys, where is everyone else?" he finally asked.

"They're getting ready." Kelso explained as he tried to decide between a sprinkled doughnut and a chocolate covered one, "The girls are still getting dressed, cause you know how long girls can take."

"Yes, and Randy is still hogging up the bathroom. Blow-drying his wavy girl-like hair." Fez added bitterly, "I want hair like that."

"I know you do buddy." Kelso said patting his little buddy on the back, "Oh and Hyde's down in his room still getting dressed too. Guess all this time living with Jackie has gotten his girly side out of him."

"Yes. Oo we should call him Heidi!" Fez excitedly said.

Kelso nodded before his eyes got large, showing he had an idea. "Ooh or Sally!"

"Why Sally?" Fez questioned.

"I don't know!" Kelso shrugged.

Eric watched the two morons continue to ramble on, this time about what doughnut they were gonna choose. He'd blocked them out though; his mind was overflowing with question about where the others were. Sure Kelso and Fez had given an explanation, but not a very good one.

"They're getting ready?"

"Yup." Kelso nodded, "We'd be getting ready to but we don't have to."

"Yes, when we wake up we are handsome and ready to go!" Fez agreed with a large smile on his face.

"One of us is anyways." Kelso scoffed.

Fez looked angrily across the table, "You sonofabitch…"

"Hey, hey guys" Eric called out, putting his hands up in the air, trying to keep them from having yet another pointless argument "What's everyone getting ready for?"

"For Angela." Fez answered.

"Or as Hyde like to cal her, Angie." Kelso said in a teasing voice, despite the fact that Hyde was way down in the basement.

Eric still didn't understand, "Who's Angela? Or Angie?" he shook his head, "Who is she?"

"She's the nurse that comes to help take care of your mom. She's coming today." Kelso informed before his eyes lit up like a small child's, "Awesome! Chocolate Éclair!"

Eric frowned as he watched Kelso lift out the long doughnut and Fez reached over for a coffee.

"Wait a nurse?" Eric asked, "What does mom need a nurse for? She's a nurse. She knows what to do. Can't she take care of herself?"

"Apparently not." Fez replied before taking a sip of coffee only to quickly pull it away from his lips, "Aye! Hot! Hot! My tongue! I may never taste candy again!"

Eric ignored his foreign friend's cries and stood lost in his own thoughts. His mom needed a nurse to come take car of her? What kind of stuff did she do for her? Was it big difficult stuff? Or was his mom having trouble doing everyday things?

This was just another thing he feared about coming back home to see her. He didn't want to see his mom getting help from strangers, she was the one who was supposed to help them.

What was this Angela like? Was she even a real nurse? Or was she just some lady coming pretending to take care of Kitty but in reality was stealing from them? Was she taking good care of his mom? Making sure she felt ok, giving her medicines and stuff like that? Had she taught Jackie and Hyde how to do that stuff? Would she teach him?

"Um do you know what time she's' gonna get here at?" Eric asked, trying to sound casual.

"Think Hyde said at like twelve." Kelso said his mouth full of his éclair.

"Ok." Eric nodded and looked down at his watch. It read ten forty-five, again Eric nodded, "I can do this."

"What?" Fez asked not moving his tongue because of the pain.

"I'll be right back you guys." Eric said as he headed for the side door.

Kelso frowned and swallowed the last of his doughnut, "Where're you going?"

"Um I forgot the coffee." Eric lied and then he was out the door.

Kelso and Fez both showed confused expressions as they saw their friend's exit. The room grew quite once again. Kelso went back to the box, looking for another treat and Fez carefully tried to enjoy his coffee.

"Hey." Kelso said in a tone of voice that showed he had figured something out as he slowly looked up from the box and over at Fez.

"When you hold up doughnuts like this," he said as he picked up to doughnuts and held them in a way that you could still see the holes in the middle, "they look like boobs!"

Fez grinned and nodded along with Kelso. The thought of where Eric had gone was far, far away from their minds.

~*~

Hyde had just made himself comfortable on the yellow sofa in the living room when the doorbell rang. Now usually Hyde would've ignored it and waited until someone else answered it or until the person finally gave up and left. This time however, when he heard the first chime he was quick to get on his feet and over to the front door.

He opened the door to find Angela standing there in a little more casual style of clothing. Jean pants, red turtleneck, and matching jean jacket.

"Hi." Hyde greeted trying to keep his Zen.

"Hi." Angela smiled, "Sorry I'm a little late. I had to change there at the office. Not to nursey right?"

Hyde shook his head as he looked her over, "Nope. It looks great….I mean you look great."

"Thanks." She smiled again and then took notice of his yellow Rolling Stones concert t-shirt. "Nice, shirt. I love The Rolling Stones."

"Yeah? I didn't know that." Hyde said trying to sound surprised.

"Yup." Angela nodded before looking towards the staircase, "Is Mrs. Forman in her room?"

"Um yeah, yeah." Hyde nodded, "Here I'll go with you."

After a nod from Angela, the two started to climb the steps of the staircase making abit of small talk.

"So how's she been?" Angela asked.

Hyde nodded, "Pretty good I guess. Me and Jackie've been staying with her at night. Sometimes she wakes up cause of the pain and sometimes it's cause she feels sick, but it's not too bad that we don't know what to do."

"That's good." She told him as they walked through the upstairs hallway to Kitty's room.

"Yeah." Hyde nodded, not noticing that he was standing infront of Kitty's closed door.

Angela gave him a bit of a questioning look, but Hyde still didn't seem to catch on so she decided to just ask.

"Are you gonna open the door?"

"Oh right." Hyde was quick to say before opening the door even quicker.

He left Angela enter the room first as he stayed out in the hall for a few more seconds asking himself when exactly did he turn into Eric?

"Hi Mrs. Forman."

Kitty smiled a small smile from her bed, "Hello Angela. How are you dear?"

"I'm doing good." Angela replied and then looked around the full room, "You seemed to have done something new to your room haven't you? I don't remember it being so crowded before."

Crowded was just the right word to describe the room that now held eight people. Kitty was on the bed with Jackie sitting beside her on the right side of the mattress. Donna and Randy had taken ownership of the arm chair in the room. Randy sat on the actual seat while Donna sat on the arm. Fez and Kelso were also on the room, but they were standing up playing a game of rock, paper, scissors until Angela walked in.

"Angela, these are the rest of my basement babies." Kitty began before introducing them all, "This is Donna and her fiancé Randy. And over there is Fez and Michael."

Angela smiled politely at the group, "It's a pleasure to meet you all."

"Oh no, no." Fez started to say in a deep, sexy voice, "The pleasure is mine."

Kelso bumped Fez's shoulder with his own, "No, the pleasure is mine."

"I said the pleasure is mine." Fez firmly said.

Kelso frowned, "Yeah well..."

"Hey Tweedle Dee Tweedle Dum. Knock it off." Hyde ordered before frogging them both in the arm.

"Are you all going to be in here the whole time?" Angela asked the group.

"Yeah. They're all pretty much staying here for the rest of the week." Jackie explained, "We thought if they were in here they could understand a little more about what's going on and maybe be able to help out abit."

Angela smiled, "I think that's a wonderful idea."

"It was my idea." Three different manly voices called out.

Angela just smiled at Hyde, Fez, and Kelso before speaking again. "Ok, well I'm just gonna check on a few things with Mrs. Forman and then I can start explaining everything for you all."

Everyone in the room gave an understanding nod and then let Angela do what she had to do. Kelso and Fez went back to their game, not paying much attention to who was drawing what. They like the others had their eyes towards Angela and Kitty.

Donna watched as Angela checked on the needle that was in the back of Kitty's hand. She shivered just a bit, though needles weren't her biggest fear she wasn't their biggest fan either.

"Does that needle hurt Mrs. Forman?" she decided to ask.

"No." Kitty answered with her eyes closed for only a few seconds before they reopened and she gave a slight smile "You get use to it."

"Hey you know, I just realized my grandpa used to have an IV machine thing like that too." Randy commented, "After he died though Grandma turned it into a lamp. I think it's still at my parents' house."

As Randy continued to ramble on about his dead grandparents, Jackie snuck her way off the bed and made her way over to where Kelso and Fez were standing.

"Where's Eric?" she whispered.

"Getting coffee." Fez whispered back, not quite sure why they were whispering.

"What? I thought he was the one who got the coffee and doughnut." Jackie said still in a hush voice, "Who got that coffee?"

Kelso decide to join the conversation, "Eric."

Jackie's frown deepened and at that same moment both Kelso and Fez realized something they had missed earlier today.

"Uh-o." Fez began, "I don't think Eric knows he got coffee."

Jackie shook her head slightly. "I think he does."

Before Fez or Kelso could ask what she was talking about the bedroom door opened up once again.

"Ok, I'm here. Sorry I'm late." The person apologized, "I just got Betsy to take her nap."

"It's fine, really. I was just about to start going over a few things." Angela explained.

"Oh, ok, good." Brooke nodded, sighing a small sigh of relief. She really wanted to be here so she could find a few more ways of helping out around here. "I'm Brooke by the way. Michael's wife."

"Yeah, but we're only married cause we've got a kid together." Kelso quickly told Angela earning him a death glare look from his wife, "Oh and cause she's hot and we're madly in love."

He then kissed his angry wife's cheek.

~*~

"I've set the nutrient IV up in the port-a-cath." Angela explained to the group a couple of minutes later.

"What's that?" Fez curiously asked

"It's a metal valve they inserted in my chest, it opens right into an artery" Kitty explained, "The chemo gets in faster."

Kelso frowned, "Do you leak or anything?"

That earned him at least five hits from those standing around him. It did make Kitty smile, though.

"I haven't yet." She told him.

"It's one way." Angela continued, "The morphine dispenser hooks into the same line." She turned to Kitty, "If you're in any pain and the medicines don't seem to be working, just push the button."

Kitty nodded as her left hand held onto the control Angela was talking about and her other hand was clasped between both of Jackie's.

Angela looked up at the group. They each had their own concerned expressions on their faces. Especially the ones she had just met. Randy had his sympathetic hand on Donna's knee. Brooke had her hands intertwined with Kelso's and Fez had one most worried looks his friends had ever seen on his face.

"Um I do." Hyde said raising his hand, trying to break the tension in the room, "Do we all get one?"

While his friends stifled their giggles or gave tiny smiles, Kitty shot him a warning look as Angela shook her head and smiled.

~*~

"Hey Jackie," Donna began as she turned to look at her friend.

It was a few minutes after Angela had left. The two of them were sitting in the living room. Everyone else was either in the basement or with Kitty.

"I didn't wanna say anything in front of Hyde, but where's Eric?"

"I don't know." Jackie shook her head as she kept her eyes on the magazine she was flipping through. "He either went to go get coffee or went back to Seattle."

"What?" a shocked Donna asked.

"Yeah, I know." Jackie nodded looking away from the magazine and at Donna, "He already got the coffee this morning with the doughnuts."

"Jackie, that not what I'm what-ing about." Donna began, wanting to get this straight, "Why did you say Seattle? Did he already leave?"

"Well his bags are still in my room but I'm not exactly sure if that was part of his whole 'Two Days Plan'" Jackie stated.

Donna continued to frown, Jackie wasn't making any sense.

"What 'Two Days Plan'?"

Jackie looked at Donna with a slight scowl before realizing she hadn't told her yet. "Oh that's right you don't know yet."

"I could've told you that." Donna replied dryly.

Jackie nodded before moving her legs up to the sofa and getting comfortable, it was kind of a long story. Before she started speaking though, she had to smile. This reminded her of when she was younger and she and Donna would gossip down in the basement. We'll she would gossip, Donna would try to ignore her. That wasn't what she was doing this time around though.

"Ok, well it started yesterday. I snuck Eric past Steven so he could see Mom." Jackie explained, "Cause you know how upset Steven is with Eric, right?"

"No, really?" Donna asked sarcastically, "I couldn't tell."

Donna's tone did not please Jackie and she so she shot the lumberjack a sideways look.

"Donna, sarcasm is not going to get you back in the loop."

Donna really did want to know what was going on, so she nodded, "Ok, ok. Go on."

"So I snuck Eric in to see Mom and she was so happy when she saw him and he looked happy too. Everything was going great and it was all thanks to me." Jackie went on, "But then something happened…"

"Eric opened his mouth." Donna guessed.

"Exactly!" Jackie replied, "He opened his mouth and started talking about how he needed perfect attendance at school to get some award or something. And then he started talking about this 'Two Days Plan.' He say he says he's gonna leave back to Seattle today and then he'll come back here late Friday night. Then'll he'll leave Sunday to Seattle and come back on Friday again. That way he won't miss any school days."

"He's gonna leave his sick mother to go to school?" Donna asked with anger clearly in her voice, "That dillhole."

Jackie nodded in agreement with her own frown in place. The two women sat on the couch with deep frowns as they thought over the whole situation. Suddenly one of the frowns disappeared.

Jackie turned towards Donna, "Donna will you talk to him?"

"What?"

"Come on Donna, he need someone to get through to him."

Donna continued to frown at the tiny brunette, "Jackie why me? Eric and I haven't really talked to each other in years."

"Because there's no one else who'll do it, Donna." She explained, "Look I can't do it because I've got my own plan on getting him to stay. Steven won't do it. Eric barely knows Randy and Brooke. And if I ask Fez or Kelso they'll just end up talking about boobs and candy."

"I just don't know Jackie." Donna said with a shake of her head, "Eric and I aren't close anymore, not since Africa."

"Donna you've got to do it." Jackie argued in an almost pleading tone, "Eric needs to realize that he's got to spend some time with his mother or he'll regret it for the rest of his life."

The tall redhead still wasn't completely convinced.

"But Jackie…"

"If not for Eric, for Mrs. Forman."

Donna exhaled loudly, great now Jackie was playing the dying woman card and she wasn't even the dying woman!

"Fine." She at last agreed, "But I'm not promising anything."

Jackie smiled and nodded, "Yeah, yeah. Now you wanna hear my plan?"

"Is it good?" Donna asked with a raised eyebrow.

"So good." Jackie answered with a smirk before she started to explain her idea to keep Eric from leaving back to Seattle so soon.
