As it turns out she wouldn't heed to her warning. She wouldn't stop her charade. Something that suited her just fine. It would just make the failure even sweeter. They called her a bitch. A whore. Every possible name in the book. So be it. She didn't care. Didn't care what any of them said behind her back. In the end she had won and living proof of that victory is sitting right by her side now as they silently watch television down in the basement snuggled close to each other like neither has a care in the world. But all around them? All around them there are some that do care. Some that were not shy to voice their opinions on certain matters. But she didn't care. They had made their beds and now they had to lay in it. But she could do without the stares. Those annoying stares that she wanted nothing more to wipe away from their faces like they are some common house fly. Stares that had all started just two weeks ago. Two weeks since Donna and Kelso had returned from California. Two weeks worth of uncomfortable silences. Two weeks of being glared at by most of the group. But she didn't care. Not one bit. They would not ruin this for her. They would not ruin her relationship with her boyfriend.
But with such an atmosphere brought changes. Changes within the group. Bonds that are slowly being tested. Some that have already been torn to never repair again. Even some that have strengthened when noticing they have a common enemy. If only said enemy actually cared about their opinion. Nope instead she has done what she has done for this past summer. Most of it anyways. She would arrive here at this residence seeking out her boyfriend not even muttering a single word to anyone else from this so called gang. Well except for Fez. She couldn't be mad at him. Especially when he looks so innocent looking like he really doesn't understand what exactly is going on. Seek out her boyfriend under his parent's roof. Something that she has made a comment about passing through with her hand in his as they had passed through the basement one night reminding everyone just whose house they were hanging out in. She seriously doubted after what happened last time none would wander off to the Pinciotti Residence any time soon. A small comment that one could argue had started it all. Started the name calling behind her back. Started the angry glares that she receives on an almost daily basis. But she didn't care. No what she did care about was the consequences that a very selected few would have come forth turning their perfect little worlds into nothing but nightmares.
Starting with Donna. Oh how she smiled. Smiled so brightly all day her face started to hurt when she heard the news that Bob had pulled Donna out from High School and enrolled her into a Catholic High School as punishment for leaving to travel to California without his permission. Great news knowing fully well now she would never have to see the flock of red hair walk the halls of Point Place High School again. Would never have to worry about having to watch her back. News that would only get better when the redhead would appear down in the basement after her first day of Catholic High School still dressed in her uniform. A uniform that is very revealing. Such a uniform that she knew then and there what the older girl was trying to do. But it didn't work. Oh how she remembers the moment clearly. Remembers how he had just paid Donna a slight glance before shrugging his shoulders and turning towards her saying that she would look much better in it. The look across the redhead's face at that moment. Priceless.
As for Kelso? Did he get into trouble for going to California for the summer? Surprisingly no. yet it wasn't much of a shock to her. The Kelso do have a big family. Too many mouths to feed. It wouldn't be surprising to hear that his parents didn't even notice his absence. Yet it happened. He got off clean with such a crime. No consequences laid down by his parents. But his time would come. Oh how she had made sure of it. Like she has said once before. With living in a small town rumors could be quickly spread. So many rumors. Some truthful. Some little white lies. This time however everything that had been spread by an unknown source had been true. So many rumors that have lead many young women who had their eyes on him to turn and cautious tuck tail getting away as fast as they can. He has become a pariah. An outcast among his own peers outside of the usual group. No more groups of girls traveling after him giggling at everything he does. No more seductive looks coming his way by his fellow classmates. No more getting some much needed help to pass his classes for special favors. No now for the first time he is all alone. All alone to fend for himself. All alone and he only has himself to blame.
