It was the day before graduation. Fez was going to be back to his homeland the day of graduation because his stay in America was expiring. So, we were gonna go camping with him tonight. Every thing Fez ate, drank, touched, or talked about, he said it was his "last American...". We were all getting sick of it.

So, everyone commented on how annoying Fez was being. Then, Donna came in all excited and talked about how her and Eric were going to be getting an apartment together. I thought it was rather cute and I was happy for them.

Hyde is still trying to get Jackie back but Kelso is interfering with it. How does Hyde not understand I want to be with him?

"Hey, Kelso, can I talk to you real quick?" I asked as Hyde and Kelso were in the middle of arguing.

"Yeah, sure." Kelso nodded as we walked into the back room in the basement.

"Okay, Kelso, please be smart and listen to everything I say. Okay?" I asked him as I put my hands on his shoulders.

"Are we gonna make out?" Kelso smirked.

I gasped and slapped his face, "No!"

Kelso gasped as well, "Well, Penny, I'm sorry, I thought you were coming onto me!"

"No! Kelso, okay. Listen. I need you to keep trying to get Jackie. Okay? Can you do that?" I asked him and raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, yeah- Ooh! I know why! You wanna get back with Hyde!" Kelso giggled like a kid and I put my hand over his mouth.

"Goddamn, Kelso. Shut up!" I scolded him as Kelso giggled and walked out of the basement room. I followed.

"Hey, Eric. Can I talk to you?" I asked now as Eric nodded.

"Oh, uh, yeah." Eric said and hopped over the couch to follow me to the back room.

"Okay, so, Hyde is really dumb and doesn't get that I still want to be with him. Can you give him some hints for me?" I asked politely.

"Penny, you know how much he's screwed you over." Eric rolled his eyes.

I pouted at him, "Pretty please."

"If he really liked you, he would've said something." Eric argued.

"But it's Hyde. Just lead him in the right direction." I smiled at him and walked out. I heard Eric sigh out.

~~~

Hyde came walking out of the Forman's kitchen, where all of my friends are. I was sitting on the cruiser, trying to think. About what? I didn't quite know.

"Yeah? Well, these hotdogs are like you, too, Hyde! They're...uh.... KOSHER!" Kelso yelled.

I scrunched my eyebrows as Hyde just shook his head and laughed.

"Burn!" Kelso yelled seconds later and walked out as well. Kelso was going to say something back to Hyde but then saw me out there and Hyde going to sit next to me. Kelso raised his eyebrows and then walked back inside.

"Ok, um, Penny. I'm really sorry about that whole night." Hyde said quietly.

"There's no need to be sorry, Steven. Besides, it was, uh, fun." I smiled.

"Yeah, it was. But I want to get Jackie back. I-I don't know. I know you're planning on going off to college somewhere and I don't want to do a long distance. It won't work. Penny, I really want to be with you, but I know we won't get to see each other that much. That's why I have to be with Jackie." Hyde explained.

"Hyde, that's not fair to Jackie. You can't have her be the runner up." I shook my head.

"Well I can fix things with Jackie. I still love her. A lot." Hyde responded.

"Fine. Do what you want." I shrugged as I hopped off the cruiser to go walk over to my house.

~~~

It was the night of the camping trip. Kelso was singing a rip-off of American Pie and changing the words to something degrading towards Hyde. It was pretty catchy.

Donna began to tell a ghost story and eric went and walked off elsewhere. I was sitting on a log next to Laurie while Fez was sitting between my legs and I played with his hair. He really enjoyed it.

"You know, it really creeps me out being up her after what happened to those kids." Donna sat up on the log where Eric was previously sitting.

"What kids?" Kelso asked, kinda freaked out. Fez looked a little scared too.

"Well, a bunch of kids, just like us, were camping out up here," Donna turned on a flashlight, "And they disappeared."

Fez gasped and I pet his head to calm him down.

"And all the police could find were these bloody drag marks that led down to the lake. It was like... it was like something killed them and then pulled them in."

Fez grabbed onto my leg and I rolled my eyes over how dramatic and fake the story was, but I chuckled. It was making Fez and Kelso scared, so it was funny.

"Maybe it was the Loch Ness monster." Fez's eyes widened.

"No, Fez, the Loch Ness monster is in Africa." Laurie shook her head.

Donna continued with her ghost story, "So, the police, like, searched the lake with their sonar and stuff, and when they played back the tapes, all they could hear in the background was, like, a whisper."

Kelso whispered, "What did it say?"

""I am the Lady of the Lake", "I am the Lady of the Lake". Yeah, and you'll know when she's coming because she screams before she kills. Let's see if we can hear her." Donna says, hinting at Eric.

Nothing.

"I said, let's see if we can hear her!" Donna spoke louder so eric could hear his cue line.

"D-Donna. I'm stuck in a thorn bush." Eric says.

Fez looks up at me and laughs, now getting that the ghost story wasn't true. I smiled back at him and messed his hair up. He giggled.

"I heard her. She's stuck in a thorn bush!" Kelso exclaims, thinking that Eric is the Lady of the Lake.

Donna sighs and gets up to get her fiancé.

"I'm kinda cold." Jackie says and rubs her hands together.

"Yeah, it is a little cold out." I agree with her and Jackie nods at me.

"I can tell because your nipples are pointy." Fez points at me and I cover my chest.

"Shut up, Fez." I laugh and he chuckles.

"I'll go get my jacket for you." Fez smiles and gets up, going to his tent.

Jackie makes a competition for the two boys, "I'll reward whoever gets more firewood by letting them feed me marshmallows."

Fez walks out and hands me his jacket, "Thank you, Fez."

I kissed him on the cheek and he smiled before sitting back down where he was.

"I'm not gonna go running around the woods trying to impress you." Hyde looked at Jackie and shook his head.

"I will." Kelso says slowly before standing up and walking off.

"Damn it." Hyde says and gets up as well.

"I'm gonna go take a walk down by the lake." Laurie says.

"I would join you, but I don't feel like seeing naked Laurie." I chuckled.

"It wouldn't be the first time." Laurie laughed.

"That's true. Okay. I'll come with." I said and stood up, following her.

A few seconds later, fez yells, running towards us, "I choose boobs!"

Once Laurie and I got to the lake, we both stripped off our clothes. Although it was cold, the water was still warm.

I held my shirt up to my chest, "What if someone sees us?"

"It's fine. Loosen up!" Laurie chuckles.

"Well there you are, my little sex muffin." Eric says and Laurie and I scream at the sight of naked Eric.

"Little brother?!" Laurie screams.

Eric screams too, running off with his clothes.

~~~

Laurie went to find the old rope swing, which left me alone in the lake. Fez disappeared elsewhere. I hummed a simple tune as I put my head under the water to smooth out my hair.

"Penny?"

"Huh?" I look over by the shore and it was Fez.

"Um, sorry, for uh." Fez begins.

"Fez, it's fine. You've seen me naked before. Remember when we all skinny dipped together?" I chuckled and Fez nodded slowly.

"Yeah." Fez said slowly.

"C'mon, get naked and get in here." I laughed as Fez smiled lightly and took all of his clothes off.

~~~

"Oh god." I shook my head.

Fez and I ended up hearing things up and getting it on in my van.

"How was it?" Fez smiled at me.

"Oh, it was really good, actually." I said lightly. That was the problem.

"Really?" Fez sounded shocked.

"Yeah." I smiled over at him.

~~~

The next morning, Fez and I woke up really early. We decided to leave everyone there since they had Kelso's van left. Also, it was really early and they had like 3 hours until they had to wake up.

So, I took Fez to his host parents to get ready and then I drove home to get ready. When I was finally ready to leave, I tried to turn my van on but it wouldn't start.

"Fuck!" I groaned. My parents were already at the school, meaning I had no one to tell them I couldn't get to graduation in time. I had 10 minutes to be there and there was no way I was gonna get there in time.

~~~

The rest of the gang never made it to graduation either. And then Laurie and Fez went m.i.a. So, Kitty, Bob, and my mother all decided to make us take graduation pictures at 5.

We all lined up by the cruiser and Kitty was about to take our pictures. Fez and Laurie ran up.

"Guys, I have something to tell you." Fez says.

"Just talk while you pose." Kitty waved at them and we all smiled.

"Kitty, be sure to get me in the background loading the rest of Eric's crap." Red says as I chuckle.

"Okay, here we go. Smile!" Kitty says and we all smile.

Kitty clicks the camera and it flashes. We all continue to smile. We're finally adults.

"Okay, tell them, Laurie." Fez smiles.

"I married Fez so he can stay in the country!" Laurie exclaims.

We all look at her in disbelief.

"You did what?" Red says angrily. I don't think I've ever seen him this angry and shocked.

"Don't worry, daddy. I don't love him, I was just bored." Laurie smiles innocently.

"What he hell is going on?" I whisper over to Hyde.

"I don't know, it's been like this all day. Jackie said she's choosing herself over Kelso and me." Hyde shook his head and I looked at him oddly. He shrugged.

"Yeah, but we will be sleeping together." Fez says awkwardly, but smiles.

"You- oh." Red begins to yell but he holds his arm in pain.

"Dad. Are you alright?" Eric asks.

"Uh, yeah, I'm fine. I'm just- my arm hurts." Red says and leans on the cruiser.

Kitty feels his forehead and I walk over and whisper to her, "These are signs of a heart attack."

"Yeah. Red. You're all clammy. Red, I think you're having a heart attack. How'd you know?" Kitty looks over to me and takes him towards the house.

"I'm studying to be a nurse. Um, yeah. I think someone should go call an ambulance." I say slowly and Kitty nods.

"No, open your eyes. He's having an arm attack." Michael says, taking our hands off of Red.

"Michael, knock it off. This is serious. Get him a chair." I pull him off.

"Laurie, call an ambulance." Kitty says as she nods and runs to the house.

"Okay, Red, just calm down." I say to him and Fez wanders over. I push him away, warning him to back off before making this worse.

"How can I calm down, I-" Red begins to get worked up again but kitty stops him.

"Red, just focus on your breathing for a minute." Kitty says.

"If I don't make it, kill the foreigner." Red warns.
