(I decided to skip the first date episode sense I couldn't really think of what to put in there. And sorry there's not much of Micheal moments)

Jackie quietly opened the basement door, stopping in her tracks when she saw Eric doing some weird dance. Giving him an odd look, she slowly slipped her coat off and set it next to the music player before crossing her arms and leaning against the wall, watching him blankly.

Eric did a little spin, faltering at the sight of her, "Jackie! Door! Knock!"

Jackie shook her head, walking toward him, "Sorry, I didn't know you'd be doing anything so embarrassing. Um... is Donna here?"

"No," Eric said as he leaned over to turn the TV off, Jackie settling into the couch as he did.

"Look, I need to talk to someone," She looked up at him hopefully, "I could really use a friend right now."

"Okay, then, well, good luck with that," Eric said quickly, making his way toward the stairs.

"Eric!" Jackie exclaimed, making Eric stop and turn to face her, "Can I talk to you? Look, I've always been able to trust you. And you're such a nice guy."

"No, I'm not," Eric said quickly, laughing nervously as he made his way toward her.

"Yes, you are," Jackie mumbled, facing forward on the couch. Eric looked at her for a moment before hesitantly taking a seat next to her.

"Okay... okay," He said, putting a hand on her upper back, "What happened? Did Hyde refuse to go to a Girl Scout dinner with you or something?"

"...I'm pregnant..."

Eric choked on his own breath.

"And, in a dream, two of the three Stooges were brig grapes," Fez grinned, "While I played them a beautiful song on my accordion... in the nude."

Everyone was at the Hub later that day, taking up two small tables. Hyde sat next to Jackie, holding onto a glass coke bottle, an arm loosely wrapped around her shoulders, too focused on Fez's dream to notice her and Eric's odd expressions. Kelso sat next to Jackie, Eric next to him. Fez sat next to Eric at the second table, grinning happily at his odd dream.

Hyde narrowed his eyes, giving Fez an odd look, "Somehow the accordion part bothers me more than the nude part."

Jackie slapped Kelso's hand when he reached over to grab a fry, "Kelso stop it!"

"What I do?" Kelso whined, holding onto his hand.

Jackie glanced around nervously, "Look, I just need all the food I can get right now."

"Jackie, what?" Hyde asked, giving her a strange look.

Eric suddenly burst out into an odd, high-pitched sounding laughter, drawing everyone's attention away from Jackie. Behind him, Donna walked into the Hub, stopping at their table.
