Eric Formans Basement,
Christmas Day 1:45 A.M

«

T'was the night before Christmas and all through the Forman house not a creature was stirring, not even Red Formans Vietnam war flashback dreams.

And of course, the gang of friends who sat around passing a festive blunt in Eric Formans basement.

"Kelso man, were so lucky your cousin does holiday sales." Eric spoke hazily from his seat in The Circle, a large smile planted on his lips.

"Oh I know, but I had to pay her five extra dollars, that was my holiday beer money, man." Kelso complained and then erupted into s for of giggles. "Man anything you do in December can be for the holidays, holiday make out, holiday circle, holiday... you get it!"

"Holiday boobs!" Fez said, laughing at his own joke.

"Kelso, how do you have a hot, drug dealing cousin we didn't know about?" Hyde questioned, passing the blunt to Donna who sat next to him.

"That's like next level feminism, a chick drug dealer." Donna exclaimed loudly.

"I don't know man, she lives on the other side of town and I don't really talk to her much. But my mom said her and my aunt are moving closer and I totally forgot she was a big burn out." Kelso explained, shoving a chip in his mouth half way through explaining.

"Guys I'm tired, Michael can we go now?" Jackie complained, resting her head on the boys shoulder.

"You should tell her to come around more, man, we might get some free supply!" Eric suggested.

"Ya! We need more boobs- I mean girls in the group!" Fez said with a cheeky smile.

"Guys, as much as I love talking about Kelso's hot cousin, I'm gonna hit the sack, Mrs. Forman makes the best breakfasts on holidays and I'm gonna be the first one at the table." Hyde said with a yawn, standing up and putting out the finished blunt.

Eric Formans Basement,
Christmas Day 7:34 P.M

"Man, I love the holidays! I got 3 new shirts and a new Walkman!" Kelso yelled as he walked through the Formans basement door.

"Kelso, you just got a new Walkman! What happened to it?" Donna asked as she walked in and sat on the couch, Eric's arm slung around her shoulder immediately.

"My dog wizzed on it, or one of my brothers, I'm not completely sure. Dog wizz and Casey wizz are so similar. He explained with a simple shrug, earning a look of disgust from everyone in the room.

The gang had spent basically all day together, except a small part of the morning that they had to spend with each of their families.

They were sitting around showing off their gifts and watching old Christmas movies on the basement television when they heard a knock on the basement door.

"Santa?" Fez yelled as he ran to open the door, behind it stood a girl about Jackie's height, holding a tub of cookies and a black backpack hung over one of her shoulders.

"Oh, you're not Santa." Fez said with disappointment.

The girl laughed and shook her head, "I am not, but I do bring gifts!"

Kelso shot up as he heard the familiar voice of his cousin Autumn.

"Autumn! How the hell did you find me?" He asked as he embraced her in a hug, directing his cousin into Eric's basement.

"My mom told me you were at some foreman house, I remembered coming here once with you when we were kids to steal-" she cut herself off when she realized she was about to expose Kelso and herself for stealing Eric's baseball bat and mit when they were kids.

"To steal some bibles for homeless people!" Kelso said, attempting to save them.

"Ya, hobo bibles!" Autumn said and she put her backpack down on the table in front of the teenagers. "I'm autumn by the way; I'm sorry about stealing your bibles. I hope I can make it up to you with this holiday joint!" She said turning to Eric, passing him the gift. "I also made cookies!"

"You know what this calls for!" Fez sang out and the group of teenagers formed a circle around the table, smoke soon filling the room.

"You're so cool, Autumn, how the hell are you a Kelso?" Donna asked, shoving a Christmas cookie in her mouth.

"Ya, like, usually when a Kelso comes to my house they're here to insult me." Eric said, grabbing half of donnas cookie, earning a dirty look from the redhead.

"I'm not a Kelso. Michael and I are related through his moms side, thank god! I don't know what I would do if I was cursed like that." Autumn said as she let out a laugh.

"Oh what a relief!" Steven said with a sigh, not able to stop staring at the young girl in front of him.

"Oh ya, Hyde thinks you are pretty!" Fez mischievously laughed and shoved some chips in his mouth as he side eyed Steven. This comment earned Fez a punch to the arm. "Ow! I am a delicate flower, Hyde!"

The joint was slowly burning out, when autumn realized that she grabbed another from her bag.

"Foreman, your dads gonna get high from all this smoke! This is awesome, Autumn feel free to come steal bibles from here anytime." Kelso said as he passed it along.

"You're so cool autumn, and we need more girls in the group!" Donna exclaimed loudly.

Autumn was just happy to finally have a group of friends to hang out with. It was so hard for her to find something like that in point place, especially at her school.

"So where do you get this stuff from anyways, hm?" Hyde asked, curiously tilting his head.

Autumn laughed and raised an eyebrow, "Secret. If I told you, I'd have to kill you!" She joked, throwing her head back in a fake evil laugh before grabbing a cookie.

"You're like, a goddess, in my country you would never have to rub your own feet." Fez said, his words muffled due to the large amounts of food he was shoving into his mouth. 

Autumn tilted her head curiously at the strange foreign boy in front of her. 
Donna patted her shoulder and tried to give her new pal some advice, "I promise you'll eventually get used to it, and if you don't, just keep smoking, he eventually eats himself to sleep."
