Eric was still worrying and thinking about Penny, His whole life was now turning upside down. Penny was always around him, sucking all the attention. Whether it was at dinner time or in the basement with his friends, she was there, the center of attention. However, he was determined to focus on his relationship with Donna. That was the most important thing in his life, and as long as he had Donna, Penny wasn't too much of a distraction.

It has been a few days since he's been alone with Donna, and when they were alone in his bedroom an intense make out session ensued. It felt so good and so right, he wasn't thinking about Penny at all.

A loud noise suddenly alarmed them. It sounded like something breaking and it came from Laurie's old room, now occupied by Penny. They both rushed into the room and were startled to see Penny and Kelso there. A broken night lamp was scattered on the floor with shattered glass all over. Kelso was standing there shirtless, completely discombobulated. Penny was in her bra, staring at Eric terrified.

"Kelso!", Eric said angrily, "What the fuck?!"

"Hmmm", Kelso was lost for words.

"Hmmm….I think I should leave", Donna mumbled.

"Yeah I think I should leave too", Kelso said as he quickly put on his shirt.

"No! Wait!", Eric said but Donna and Kelso hurried out.

Eric and Penny remained there by themselves.

"Look Eric", Penny said hesitatingly, "You're not gonna tell anyone, are you?"

"Fuck you!", He replied angrily.

The next day Eric went over to Donna's to talk to her.

"Are you gonna tell Jackie about Kelso and my cousin?", he asked.

"Not my business", she replied.

"But isn't Jackie your best friend?"

"Yeah, but Kelso is also my friend, and Penny is boyfriend's cousin, so I'm not getting involved."

"But Jackie was really hurt when Kelso cheated on her with my sister and she was like the last one to find out."

"It's Jackie, OK Eric? She gets over things quickly."

"So we're gonna pretend nothing happened?"

"Why the hell are you bothered by this, Eric? Kelso has been your friend since like forever, why are you suddenly so concerned about Jackie?"

Eric told her about his conversation with Jackie and how he promised to tell Jackie if anything went on between Kelso and Penny.

"Ah", Donna said, "Classic Jackie."

"What do you mean?", he asked.

"She's manipulating you, Eric. It's so obvious! Look Eric, truth is Jackie doesn't think that highly of you."

"Well…we're still friends."

"It's amazing what guys are willing to do for girls."

"What do you mean?", Eric asked.

"It's Jackie, the most attractive girl in Point Place, the girl any guys wants, so any guy would promise her whatever she wants."

"I don't want Jackie, I have a pretty hot girlfriend."

Donna smirked at him. "Look Eric, you're a great guy, but you're still a guy, It's in your instinct to do whatever a hot girl asks you to do. So now you think you should worry about Jackie."

Eric stared at her silently, trying to process what Donna was telling him.

"I think there's another thing", Donna said.

"What?"

"I think you're mad because you're a little jealous of Kelso."

"Why would I be jealous of him?"

"Because he can have any girl he wants. He can cheat on Jackie and she still takes him back. And he can have your cousin and you can't."

"Hey Penny is my cousin!"

"Yeah, whom you're obviously find attractive and had a crush on. I think you're a bit jealous and frustrated. And I think you should let it go."

Eric was beginning to see her point. Maybe he was jealous of Kelso. They talked some more and then made out for a while. When he went to bed later that night, he felt his conscious was bothering him again. So maybe he was jealous and frustrated but still he wouldn't let Jackie get hurt again. He decided to tell Jackie.
