A/n: this fic is not going to follow the show exactly on account of I don't care enough, but I'll try.

"Eric. It is time." Hyde said to Eric. We were all sitting in the basement trying to convince my twin brother to go upstairs and get us beers from our parents' party. "In 10 minutes there won't be another beer opportunity."

"Why can't you do it?"

"Because it's your house!"

"Your house!" Kelso echoes Hyde.

They eventually talked him into taking some beers from upstairs. I got up from my seat on top of the deep freeze to take Eric's spot next to Hyde. We all sat there, debating on whether Eric would succeed or not. I for one was surprised when he came down the stairs with 5 beers. We all cracked open our cans and Hyde made a toast.

"He actually stole something. To Forman!"

"To Forman!"

Hyde sat back down next to me and put his arm around me. I felt heat rising to my cheeks but that was just the beer, right? Okay. Fine. It's possible I kinda have a thing for him. But he's my brother's best friend. What am I supposed to do? Don't tell Eric. Shut up!

"Ever since yesterday, I can't stop thinking about you"

"Eric... it's a car," Donna told him.

"Well," I said. "We'll just leave you two lovebirds alone." Donna, Hyde, And I went to the basement leaving Eric to drool over the old vista cruiser.

Right now, Hyde is leaning against the deep freeze, Donna is sitting on the couch looking at some magazine, and I'm standing next to the record player. Right when I put in the Kiss record, Donna stands up. "Well I gotta go guys. My dad wanted me to help him with something."

"Bye Donna."

"Later Pinciotti."

As the door shut behind her, I let the record play, walking over to my usual seat on top of the deep freeze.

"I gotta ask you something, Forman," Hyde asked, turning his head to look at me.

"What's up?" I looked over at him curiously.

He turned to face me fully before sighing. "So... My friend likes this girl but he has no idea how to get her attention. But my friend and this girl are really close friends and he doesn't want to ruin their friendship. What should he do?"

I thought for a moment. He's probably talking about Eric and Donna. "That's a tough one," I said, thinking. "Tell him to just make a move already. If you're talking about who I thing you are, then I know she feels the same."

"It's not about Eric and Donna." He said slightly frustrated.

That confused me. If it's not about Eric and Donna, then it's gotta be one of the others. It's not Kelso. He's too stupid to be worried about something like this. Plus he's dating Jackie. It's probably not Fez. He's make a move no matter what and then probably make a fool of himself. So either Hyde is talking about himself or some mysterious friend I've never met. "Then... your friend should still just make a move. And if she doesn't feel the same way, say it was a dare or something."

"You really think that would work?"

"Sure. And ya never know. She might feel the same way," I said kind of sadly. If he is talking about himself, then my suspicions were right and he has feelings for Donna.

"Thanks Forman."

"No problem Hyde." I smiled sadly at him. He must have noticed because he asked, " what's wrong? Look upset about something..."

"It's nothing, just.... I'm afraid mom is gonna throw a surprise birthday party for Eric and I next week...."

"Yeah.... She's gonna throw you a party."

"Uunghh" I groaned, leaning my head on his shoulder.
