he was using his brain below the belt.

" "yeah, he tends to do that when he s had

a dry
spell." "good to know. so, what are you friends up to?" "i don t know, but quite
frankly, i m
a little scared for both of us," she joked. the music stopped and the dj handed
the microphone to j.t.
"rumor has it, that there are two people out in the bar that are about to give u
p their bachelor
and bachelorette hood. so, to commemorate this special night, their friends and
i have decided to embarrass them royally. so,
ashleigh and kelso come on up." ashleigh and kelso made their way to the stage.
"this is going to be
very embarrassing," she told kelso through denched teeth. "nah, it ll be fun," k
elso remarked. "for you, maybe. they haven
t known you since the eighth grade." "oh, yeah. i forgot." kelso smiled at ashle
igh. "i m sure i can
make it worth your while." ashleigh raised her eyebrows and looked at kelso. she
knew she wanted to marry him.
she knew he wanted to marry her. but there seemed to be something missing every
time they went out together.
he sald that he had fallen in love with her, but he hadn t sald i love you since
that
day at the hospital. in fact, she didn t even remember saying i love you back th
at day. when was
he going to say it again? was he going to say it? she at least wanted that befor
e they got
married tomorrow. "okay, lovebirds, here is the deal," j.t. began. "your friends
have compiled a list for a scavenger hunt
for the both of you." court handed kelso a list and ashleigh a list. "you have t
he rest of the
night to find that someone and retrieve something from their wallet or purse. ev
eryone going to play along?" "yeahs" and
whistles were heard. "okay, let the games begin." kelso and ashleigh looked at e
ach other. "i can t believe they
want me to ask that!" ashleigh sald pointing to a line on her page. "i can t bel
ieve they want
me to ask that," kelso added pointing to a different line on his page. "oh, well
, should we do this
together or split up?" "it ll be easier and quicker if we split up," kelso sugge
sted. "all right," she leaned
over and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "i ll see you in a bit." she turned
to
go on the scavenger hunt, but kelso caught her by the arm. "whoa, wait a meeting
. you re not going
to leave me with a weak kiss like that." "weak?" "yeah, that would ve been a nic
e kiss .
. .if you were my grandmother." "i kiss like your grandma?" "there s a striking
resemblance," kelso remarked. "you are
going to go off and talk to all kinds of guys without me. i want something to re
member you by
in case they sweep you off your feet." "not if i have anything to say about it."
kelso pressed up
against ashleigh, pushed her hair back and planted a kiss on ashleigh s lip that
made her kick up one
leg. "well, now mr. stark, i do believe i won t forget that." "you better not. n
ow, let s go
get this list completed, so we can go someplace alone." "um, all right." ashleig
h didn t know what else to
say. she wasn t quite sure what kelso meant when he sald he wanted to be alone.
they were always

getting too close to each other when they were alone. once they got to close, ne
ither one of them would
give in to the other, they just pushed each other away and stared out the window
. why exactly were they
getting married, she thought. they walked in opposite directions in hopes of fin
ding enough people to fulfill their list. "all
right, angie, how about that dance?" court asked. "i told you, court, i don t da
nce," angie reminded her date.
"everybody dances," court remarked. "you just shake your bootie," court joked. "
well, shake your bootie with somebody else. i don
t dance." court let out a deep sigh. "you are coming with me and we are going to
dance." he
took angie onto the dance floor. "thank god, she s gone," freedom grumbled. "hey
, what was with you tonight?" brady
asked. "the first impression she got of us was you wanted to deck her." freedom
eyed angie on the dance
floor. "there s something i don t like about her, that s all." "what?" j.t. aske
d. "i don t know,
yet. she s too defensive," freedom remarked. "oh, and you re not?" parker asked.
"the first words that come out
of your mouth are always defensive." dashelle put her hand up to parker. "just s
top right there, parker. we ve
had enough fights in this group of ours over the past few weeks. we don t need t
o start any
more." "then, i suggest you find someplace for me to go before i stick my foot i
n my mouth." "fine,
follow me." dashelle walked onto the dance floor and parker decided he would fol
low her. angie looked at court on
the dance floor. "court, i m serious i don t dance." "many have tried, many have
failed," angie remarked. court
started moving to the dance beat pounding from the floor. he put angie s hands a
round his neck and he
put his hands on her waist. "you just haven t had the right teacher," he whisphe
red. "whatever you do, don
t look down. look right here in my eyes." "this is so dirty dancing," angie rema
rked. "hey, it works. trust
me." j.t. and heidi came over to them on the dance floor. "well, here they are.
the most saltually frustrated
twosome i know," court joked. "court, would you stop it please," heidi pleaded.
" for the last time, we were just
having some fun." "then, why did you set my friend j.t. s face and other various
parts on fire?"
