I honestly have no idea who to tell first about my pregnancy. I thought that I'd tell Donna, because, well, she keeps things to herself. Unlike *cough cough* Jackie. And I don't really trust the guys too much. Maybe Hyde, but he might let it slip to Jackie. And I'd like to tell Kelso, but not first.

But my parents are a different story. I have no idea how I'm going to tell them.

I knock on the Pinciotti's door and Bob answers, "Hey there, Penny. What can I do for you?"

"Um, is Donna home?" I asked him.

"Yeah, she's in her room." Bob says and just stands there.

"Well, can I, uh, come in?" I ask awkwardly.

"Oh, yeah, sure. Sorry." Bob chuckled as I sarcastically laugh, walking past him and up the stairs.

"Donna." I said as soon as I walked in her room.

She was sitting in her bed, writing in her journal, "Huh?"

"I need to talk to you about something very serious. And also very secretive." I said as I scanned the room.

"Check my closet for Fez." Donna points to her closet.

I open it and I Fez comes out, "Aye."

"Go." I shove him out of the door.

"Anyways, what is it?" Donna asked as she set her journal down.

"You literally can not tell anyone. No one." I point to her and sit on the chair by her desk.

"Okay, I won't. Just tell me." Donna chuckled softly.

"I'm pregnant." I blurt and then cover my mouth right after.

"Oh my god!" Donna exclaims as she literally jumps out of bed.

"I've never said that out loud." I admitted.

"Penny! What?! This is insane! Have you told Kelso?" Donna asks as she stands by me.

"No. Not yet." I said slowly.

"You need to tell him!" Donna exclaims.

"I will, I will. I just don't know how." I shrugged and leaned back in the chair.

"You need to do it soon before it's too late and someone else does."

I walk into the basement and I see Eric, Hyde, Fez, Donna, and Kelso. Kelso is sitting in the chair by the door, so I sit on his lap and give him a quick kiss.

"Hey, baby. What's up?" Kelso smiled and wrapped his arms around me.

"Not much." I shrugged.

Donna looks at me oddly and I shake my head 'no'. She sighs.

"Donna, I like the hair." I complimented her and she smiled. The once redhead was now blonde.

"Thank you. Ooh, I just remembered the bakery gives me a free apple fritter as a blonde now. I used to get a free donut. Now I'm gonna go to the bakery." Donna says and stands up, exiting the basement.

"Hey, can I talk to you?" I looked to Kelso.

"Yeah, sure babe." Kelso smiled and kissed my cheek.

"Let's go to my place." I said uneasily and Kelso nodded, lifting me off of him. I held his hand and walked out of the basement.

We walked over to my house and then upstairs into my room. I sat him in my bed and I sat next to him.

"What's up?" Kelso asks as his face is now serious instead of his normal goofy one.

"Okay. I need you to not freak out or anything, okay?" I asked him and he tilted his head.

"Yeah, I mean I won't try to- wait, I might if you took the last cherry pop." Kelso squinted at me and I chuckled, which also made him chuckle.

"No, it's not that. It's more serious than that," I said and Kelso stopped smiling, "Michael, I-I don't know how to say this any other way."

"Baby, it's okay, I'm here for you." Kelso said and put his arm around me.

"Michael, I'm pregnant." I said softly.

"What?" Kelso asked. He sounded angry, which made me start to cry.

"I'm so sorry." I cried into his chest.

"Wait, no no no! I didn't mean to- no stop crying." Kelso rubbed my back.

"You're not mad?" I asked him.

"No, silly. Why would I be mad? I was just shocked." Kelso said.

"No, but this is my fault. My birth control pills weren't ready in time so I completely forgot any other type of protection." I explained as tears kept falling down my face, but Kelso wiped them away as fast as he could.

"No, baby don't blame yourself. This is both of our faults. It takes two to tango." Kelso nudges me and I chuckle. Kelso smiled and kissed the top of my head.

"Thank you, Michael. Do you think we can actually have a baby, though?" I asked him.

"Of course. Can we call it peanut?" Kelso asked.

"For now, I guess." I chuckled and Kelso smiled.

"Hi, peanut." Kelso pats my stomach and smiles.

I chuckle as I mess up Kelso's hair.

"Oh, that's it!" Kelso giggles and starts to tickle you.

We were all on the water tower because Eric was trying to look for Donna's engagement rings so he could "sell it and take a year off for napping and boozing".

Kelso stood protectively in front of me, making sure I wasn't too close to the edge.

"Okay, well, if you threw the ring from up here, I mean, it's gotta be around here somewhere." Eric said as he scanned the area.

"Alright, excuse me. I am a police officer in training, so we're gonna do this by the book." Kelso said.

"What book? You didn't read any book." Jackie pointed out as she stood next to Hyde, her arm around his shoulder.

"No, but I was assigned one. Killed four bees with it." Kelso said.

Kelso explains that we're going to recreate the scene and basically "trace our footsteps". We'll throw an M&M and then look there first. But Fez ate them. So Kelso threw his keys into the woods. Not smart.

~~

We didn't find the ring after looking for most of the day. We all started hanging up on Eric about how the ring was too small and would be easier to find if he had gotten her a bigger diamond. It ended up with Eric falling off the water tower. But is that really a surprise?

After that, everyone decided to go home or just do something else more entertaining. Kelso and I decided to go to the Hub and get a milkshake with some fries. Fez joined in halfway through and ended up eating most of our fries. We all just laughed about random and stupid things as we all hung out.

Now the big deal is telling Penny's parents...

-I am so sorry for the late upload. I've been working a lot and completely forget to upload until late.
