Kitty was speechless as she stood by the slider. She didn't know what upset her more that Steven was moving out two days after Eric, or that Steven was gay, and with Kelso. No it wasn't because he was gay, she thought while taking a sip of her drink. She wasn't homophobic one of the doctors at work was gay and living with a very nice man, she met them at the last Christmas party. If Steven loved men then who was she to complain, she just thought he could do better then Kelso.

"Kitty?" She turned when she heard Red walk into the kitchen.

"Yes dear."

"Is dinner ready yet?"

She stood sipping her drink for a while thinking of how she'd tell Red. How would he react? He didn't go to the Christmas party with her so he never met that doctor.

"Kitty, are you ok?"

"Let's go out to dinner." She said downing the rest of her drink.

"Fine with me." They grabbed their coats and headed out the door.

All threw dinner Kitty thought about how to tell her husband, and what to tell him. If Red noticed the worried expression on her face he didn't show it, he probably thought she was worried about Eric. He just sat eating his flat-iron stake and drinking his beer, with out a care in the world.

"Kitty, it's best that Eric moved out. He's in College now and needs room to grow."

Yup he thought it was about Eric, she thought while eating her stake. "You're right Red."

He looked at her quizzically then continued eating his dinner. Later at home they watched TV for a while until Kitty went up to bed. Red joined her a few minutes later and rested a hand on her arm. She turned in bed to face him.

"What's really going on?" He asked.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"You agreed with me before about Eric needing room go grow, that doesn't sound like you."

Kitty sat up in bed and looked down at the blanket for a minute before making eye contact with her husband.

"Two days from now Steven is going to move out, and get an apartment with Michael Kelso."

"Well good it will finally get them out of my house."

'Oh Red, I don't want all of them to be gone. All my babies are leaving me I have no one to take care of."

She started to cry and Red took her in his arms and just held her, until she calmed down. "How do you know this?" He asked.

"After everyone left I was in the kitchen drinking when I saw Steven and Michael in the driveway. I opened the door and heard them saying how they couldn't wait to move in to their apartment. Also they were standing really close to one another and at one time they kissed, I think they're gay."

"Is that what you were worried about telling me?" He asked.

"Yes."

"Kitty, if Steven and Kelso are gay then I'm fine with it." He rubbed her back soothingly.

"Really?"

"What they do with their lives and who they choose to love is their business." He looked at her for a minute then asked. "How do you feel about it?"

'I'm fine with it. Just sad Steven's moving out. Now with Eric in Madison and Laurie god-knows-where, it's going to be lonely."

"You still have me." Red said. "We can go on vacations, go out to the movies."

"Oh when have we ever gone on vacation?"

"With the kids around we never have, too much money." He lay with his head on the pillow and pulled the covers up over his shoulders. "Maybe we can go somewhere next week, or when you get some time off."

"Oh Red." She leaned down and kissed her husband on the lips then snuggled close to him. "Maybe we can go to Florida."

"I was thinking along the lines of Wisconsin Dells."

"Works for me." She said before turning over and going to sleep.

Two days later Hyde was packing up his room while waiting for Kelso to show up with the Van. He brought the last packed box into the main room of the basement and stopped, he just stared at the room remembering the good times they had. He remembered the circles they partook in and the cool things they came up with during those times, like the car that ran on water. He knew they'd be back hanging out down here soon, even if it was just Donna, Eric, Kelso, and himself. He put the box on the couch and headed back into his room to get his bag, as he came out he heard Kelso walk in.

"Hey Steven, ready to get out of here?"

"Yes." He said. "Is the van cleaned out?"

"I have all my things at the apartment already." He said.

Kelso walked over to where Hyde was standing and kissed his lips, then took two boxes and headed for the door with Hyde following behind with two more boxes. After half hour they had everything in the driveway and were loading the van when they heard a car drive up. They stopped and watched as Jackie stepped out then walked over to them.

"Hey guys." She said, not making eye contact with them.

"Hey Jackie." Hyde said. He sat on the back bumper of Kelso's van without saying anything more.

After placing a box in the van Kelso sat next to Hyde. "Hey Jackie."

"I'm not here for apologies or anything like that." She said. "I'm here to tell you if you two want to be together then I'm cool with that."

"Thank you." they said in unison.

"So what going on?"

"Steven and I got an apartment together." Kelso said.

"That's cool." She said. "Well I've got cheerleading practice and good luck to you too."

"Hey will we see you at Mrs. Forman's for Thanks Giving?" Kelso asked.

"I don't know."

Without saying anything else she got into her car and drove off. They sat like that for a minute longer then got back up and started packing. They just finished putting the last of Hyde's things in the van when Kitty and Red walked outside.

"So Steven, you're all packed." Kitty said, as she held back tears. "Was that Jackie out here before?"

"Yes she stopped by to talk for a minute." Hyde said.

"Oh my baby." She cried flinging her arms around him and burying her face in his chest.

"Mrs. Forman, you know the apartment's only across town."

'Yes. But everyone's leaving."

"We'll come visit all the time." Kelso said, placing a hand on Kitty's shoulder.

Red rolled his eyes as his wife calmed down and back away from Hyde. She then walked over to Kelso and flung her arms around him. They stood like that for a moment until she backed up, and looked up at him. Then she looked at both of them and smiled.

"I know you two will." She said. "Before you two go there's something I need to tell you."

"What?" They both asked.

"I know the two of you are a couple."

They looked like two deer caught in headlights worrying what will happen next. They also were afraid to look at Red in fear he'd kick them both in the butt.

"Mrs. Forman…" Hyde began but was cut off by Kitty.

"Oh I'm ok with it." She said, kissing them both on the cheek. 'Red."

"Oh I'm cool with it too." He said watching his wife star at him. "And enjoy your new apartment."

"Thanks Red." Hyde and Kelso both said.

"Will you two be coming to Thanks giving dinner?" Kitty asked.

When they didn't answer she said. "We'd love for you two to come."

"We'll be there." Kelso said.

"Well be better get going." Hyde said.

Both men got into the van and Kelso started it up. As the van drove down the street Hyde watched threw the side view mirror at Red and Kitty standing in the driveway, Kitty waving. He watched until they turned the corner and got on to the main road.
