Donna shut the trunk she just loaded and turned around. " Hey, have you seen Charlie? Or Suzy?" she asked Eric, who was busy trying to carry tent materials out of the house.

" Nope, but if they ever show up, we're not gonna have the room for them!" he exclaimed.

" Oh, crap! You're right!" said Donna. She started to pace. So, we're gonna have to rearrange the stuff in the back, or we can squeeze everyone together, or…"

She didn't get the chance to finish, for then a car pulled up. Suzy hopped out of the drivers seat, and dragged Charlie through the drivers door. They're just like Donna and Eric, Jackie thought to herself, smiling.

Hyde opened the door and slid in next to her. " Man, I'm glad you don't act like that," he said, pointing to the couple.

" I don't act like that because it's pathetic to have a boyfriend like that," she replied.

" True." he agreed with her.

She leaned back and sighed. " It's way too hot. I am so glad we're leaving." Jackie told him.

" I'm just glad to get out of this crappy town," Hyde said. WB's been complaining about every freaking way I run the store."

" Aw," said Jackie, who then pouted. " That's not fair! It's your store.

Before Hyde could respond, Donna flung open the car door. " We need you two outside. Now." she said, and they climbed out.

When everyone had gathered, Donna started to talk. " Okay, we have 8 of us. With luggage, the Vista Cruiser seats 5. Now, Fez here, has volunteered to drive his car, but two lucky people get to sit with him. Any takers?"

Everyone stepped back, for no one wanted to ride with him. The seats of his car were sticky from melted candy, and the floor was littered with wrappers. Besides, who wanted to be stuck in a car with Fez for an hour?

"I take my own car!" cried out Eric, who then ran for the drivers seat.

" Shotgun!" came from Kelso, who dove for the door.

Suzy started running, dragging Charlie behind her. Hyde grabbed Jackie's arm, and the two started to run.

Donna lept through the open door, securing the last spot for herself. Locking the door behind her, she laughed.

" Crap." was all Jackie was able to say. Hyde was trying to drag Kelso from his seat through the open window, but it was no use.

" Come on, you guys get to sit with me! Isn't that great?" said Fez.

" Um, no." said Jackie, who hopped over to Fez's car and gingerly opened the door. She sat down. " it's just so… sticky."

" If you could react faster, we wouldn't be in this mess!" exclaimed Hyde.

And so they spent a very horrible hour in a car that smelled like grape candy, and the highest point (or lowest) of the trip was when Fez started playing Abba. Until he sang along.

As Jackie unloaded her stuff, she cast an evil glance toward Donna.

"To the lake!" shouted Kelso. He tore off his shirt, and kicked off his shoes as he started running.

Eric and Fez followed, with Charlie close behind. Hyde helped unload, while the girls pitched a tent to change in.

" Steven, why didn't you go?" asked Jackie.

" Because," he replied, " I only own one pair of shorts, and I swim in them. I really don't want to have to wear them longer than I need to.

Suzy came out of the tent. " Well, see ya." she said, and started walking.

" Suzy!" Donna called out. " The lake's that way." she pointed in the opposite direction.

" Oh… I knew that she said, and dashed off.

Jackie changed next. Walking toward the lake, she turned around to see Donna come out of the tent, in her swimsuit. The one she was wearing when Jackie had an idea.

Jackie smiled, and slipped off her shoes in the sand. Not wanting to ruin her pedicure, she took dainty steps towards the small dock.

" Jackie, it's freezing!" called out Fez. This gave her second thoughts about getting in. staring at the lake from the edge of the dock, she sighed.

It's so pretty. Jackie thought. And perfect and blue and cold and- Her thoughts were cut off when she heard footsteps behind her. As she went to turn around, she felt a hand go to her back and one to her thighs. Being scooped up, Jackie could only come to one conclusion. She was being thrown in.

Turning around, she saw that it was Hyde. The feeling of betrayal came to her, then weightlessness. Grabbing at Hyde's shirt, she tried to pull him in with her.

T7S

He wasn't expecting this. Being pulled at threw him forwards, off balance, just enough for the girl he threw in to pull him in with her.

Hitting the water with a splash, the freezing cold water felt like icy daggers. Jackie let out a shriek, followed by a chant of " It's cold, It's cold, It's cold cold cold."

" STEVEN!" She yelled, very mad. She leaned back, and kicked rapid fire splashes at him. Shielding himself, he saw Donna sitting on the dock with a smirk on her face. Pulling off his soaking wet shirt, he threw it at her feet.

" Whyyyy," Jackie whined.

" Because," he replied, " If I didn't, I'd have to listen to ' Steven, it's too cold, Steven I don't want to mess up my hair' and multiple others."

She splashed him again. Donna stood up, threw her arms back, and jumped, pulling her knees to her chest, and landing in a perfect cannonball, succeeding in getting Jackie and Hyde soaked again.

" Donna, can't you act normal every once in a while?" asked Jackie.

" I just did." replied Donna. "I could have belly flopped."

Swimming was a good way to cool off, and an even better way to stay happy, on an afternoon that got incredibly hot.

When everyone had gotten out and had dried off, Eric pulled the cooler he brought out and distributed sandwiches. The eight of them sat in silence on the lakefront as they watched the sun sink lower in the sky.

" You know, that was really mean throwing me in the lake earlier," said Jackie. She shivered at the memory.

" Whatever." he replied.

" You know, now that shirt's gonna smell like lake every time you wear it." she told him.

" Crap."

Fez came out through the woods with a pile of sticks. " Great, now we have firewood, can we roast marshmallows and have chocolate and graham crackers?" asked Fez.

Kelso pulled out a lighter. " You don't have to ask me twice."

Jackie followed them. " It'll be nice to warm up by a fire after being thrown in a freezing cold lake!" Jackie exclaimed.

Hyde pulled her back. "I'm not letting you get burned. Literally. Figuratively, not so much,"

Jackie started walking back to her tent, with Hyde following her. All of a sudden, they heard rustling in the woods.

Hyde pulled Jackie out of the way, for Kelso came running down the path with a large log engulfed in flames. They heard a splash behind them

" I told you." was all Hyde was able to say. He wrapped an arm around Jackie as they walked back.

Jackie grabbed a sweater from her bag, and sat down on a log next to Hyde. Eric distributed metal sticks for marshmallow roasting, and as everyone gathered around the abnormally large fire, they began to relax.

" Hey, does anyone remember the time my parents took us here when we were ten?" asked Eric. " We did all the same things we do now."

Half the group nodded at the memory, while the other half just imagined what had gone on.

" Remember when Kelso got lost in the woods?" asked Hyde.

" Yeah," said Donna. " We could hear you crying out for help."

"It's not funny! I seriously thought I was going to die!" Kelso exclaimed.

After that, everyone mainly broke up. The guys started to pitch a tent. Donna sprawled out in the girl's tent, leaving some room for Suzy, none for Jackie. Squeezed up against the tent wall, Jackie got up.

Grabbing her sleeping bag and pillow, she went over to the back of the Vista Cruiser. Noticing the back was already open, she inched forward. She jumped when she herd movement. Leaning forward, she saw Hyde in the back.

" Crap, Steven, you scared me!" she said.

" Maybe that was my goal all along," he said.

" No, I think we might share a goal here." she said.

" It's awful in there, man." He said. " Kelso reeks of lake, there's no room, and Charlie's complaining of how all the marshmallows are ' upsetting his stomach'."

"Oh," she said. " I just wanted some more room."

Jackie closed up the back. The two of them fit, but barely. Hyde picked up the zipper for her sleeping back, and unzipped it. Throwing it down on the floor, he climbed on top, throwing his over them.

" Thanks." she said. He wrapped his arm around her and pointed up with the other one. Through the sunroof you could see the starry night perfectly, and the two stargazed until they fell asleep.
