"You've tried on seven different dresses, you gotta at least like one." Jackie told me as I walked out of the dressing room with something that was way too poofy.
"I don't really wear dresses." I told her as I attempted to fold my arms but the poofy sleeves wouldn't let me. Jackie looked over at Donna for advice. "Donna?" She said.
"What?" She answered back "do you think Janie looked nice in those dresses?" Jackie asked her. She shrugged. "Janie looks nice in a lot of things." She answered.
I smiled a small smile. "Thanks Donna." Donna was still weird because of everything that happened with Eric.
Jackie agreed to letting me only try on two more dresses and then we'd leave. The first of the two was ugly as hell. The second one though, that was the one.
I walked out of the dressing room and to Jackie and Donna, a smile on my face. "I like it." I told them. Jackie smiled. "You look nice, how much is it?" She asked. I shrugged and Donna got up, walking over to me and finding the tag.
Her eyes went wide. "It's 900 dollars." She said. "Dammit, I don't have that kind of money!" I said starting to freak out. Jackie stood up. "Janie, listen, stop wigging out! I-I'll pay for the dress, alright!" She said.
I stopped freaking out and looked at her. "What?" She crossed her arms and sighed. "I said I'd pay for the dress." She said much more calmly this time. "Oh, uhm, thanks Jackie." I told her. She nodded and we paid for the dress.
We then left and went back home. Luckily the dress was in a bag and Steven couldn't see it. "Oh, honey, is that your dress?" Kitty exclaimed as we walked through the door.
I nodded. "I'll show you it sometime when Steven isn't here." I told her. "What about me?" Steven said, coming out just as I said that.
"I've got a dress." I said. He nodded. "Cool." I nodded. I then headed up the stairs and hung it in my closet. "So when's all this happening?" Steven asked, referring to the wedding.
"I mean, I don't know." I said truthfully. Kitty looked between Steven and I. "Looks like you two need a conversation." She said as she walked away with a laugh and into the living room.
We both sat down at the kitchen table. "I don't know when we should get married." I told him truthfully. He looked at me. "Me neither, man."
"Steven?" I questioned. "Yeah?" He asked. "I swear to god don't do anything stupid. We're getting married, and I've already told you once to never take me for granted ever again." I said as I pointed my finger at him.
He put his hands up defensively. "I know, Janie." I nodded. "Good. Now that that's out of the way, I think we should get married in May. "Okay." Is all he said. "Alright then. We're getting married in May." I said with a smile.
We went to the basement. "We're getting married in May. Probably a small wedding, because screw all the big fancy magnificent crap. Plain and simple will be just fine." I said as Steven and I both sat down.
"Can we like, do something somewhat normal for once?" Kelso questioned. "Like?" Eric asked. "Circle." I finished. They all nodded and we took are spots. It was weird without Donna here.
"Are you and Donna ever like, gunna make up, man? It would be pretty lame if you guys didn't, man." I told my brother through a smokey haze. "I have no idea." Eric answered. "Jackie's been weird lately." Kelso said out of nowhere.
"How do you mean, man?" I questioned. "I don't know, but it's weird man." Kelso replied. "Guysss, oh my god, since Hyde and Janie are getting married, if they have kids what do you think they'll be like?" Fez questioned.
"They better have our taste in music." Steven said. I nodded. "Amen to that, man." I replied. "What if like one of them ends up looking nothing like Hyde." Kelso asked. "Then something is very wrong, it's only Steven, haven't been been with any body else, and don't plan to." I explained.
"Couldn't be me, I love doing it." Kelso said. I laughed. "And that's why by like the 2000's there will be an STD named after you." I joked. "BURN!" Eric said as he put his hands up in the air.
"Oh how I needed this." I laughed. "Needed what?" Fez questioned. I smiled. "Normalcy." I told him. We continued our conversation and highness in the basement. Eventually I got up. "I'll be back. I'm going to Donna's for a little bit."
I kissed Steven before I left and I walked next door. I knocked on the door and Bob answered. "Hey, Janie! Your mom told me about your news, congratulations." He said.
"Oh, thanks. Is Donna here? I wanna see if she's okay." I asked him. "I'll kill that brother of yours." He said. "I already planned to, so is Donna here or no?" I asked again. He hook his head. "I think she's at The Hub." He said.
I thanked him and left. I got the keys to the Vista Cruiser and began my drive to The Hub. I parked and made my way inside. I saw Donna sitting at a table, but she wasn't alone.
I wanted to puke. Donna was sitting there, with non other than Casey goddamn Kelso. And she seemed to be having a good time. I didn't want to, but I decided to walk over to her.
"Hey Donna." I said with a fake smile. "Oh...hey Janie." She said. I glanced at Casey. "Janie." He said like it was long time no see. "Ass-wipe." I said through my teeth. "Donna can I talk to you please?" I said as I looked back at her. She nodded and we walked outside.
"What the actual hell, man!" I said as soon as we got outside. She just stood there. "Donna, your my best friend, but you know what Casey did to me, or tried to do to me. Why are you with him?" I asked.
"He's changed." Donna defended. I scoffed. "I can't be your friend if your gunna date a piece of crap who you know treated me like crap. I'm serious Donna, figure your crap out." I said, pissed off.
We both had tears in our eyes. Before she could say anything I walked back to the car and left. I cried silent tears as I drove home. When I got there, Fez, Kelso, Steven, and Eric were outside.
I sighed and got out of the car. "Janie?" Steven asked worriedly as I got out of the car. I looked at him. I didn't say anything. All he did was embrace me. "She's dating Casey." I said slowly.
"What?!" All of them said. I nodded. "Donna's dating a freaking Kelso." I said.
There goes the normality again.
