Disclaimer: I don't own anything for That 70's Show. If I did then Stephen Hyde would be with me… I mean Jackie.
Story: This is set
in season five. Jackie found out that Michael was cheating on her
with Laurie. When she found out Michael and Laurie ran away together
and got married in California. Donna ended up going with them because
of Casey Kelso and the fact that Eric wouldn't take her back.
Donna lived with her mother for two months until Eric came to get
her. Now they are back together. Since Michael, Laurie, and Donna
left for California Fez has kept himself locked in his room. No one
has seen him yet.
Learning How To Love
Chapter 1: The Call
Stephen Hyde sat in the Forman's basement alone… again. Everyone had something special to do Kelso had Laurie, Forman had Donna, and Fez… well Fez had himself. Hyde couldn't stand the fact that he was alone. He knew who he wanted, he wanted her ever since… well ever since that night that they… whatever it would never happen. Maybe it would, he knew who he had to call… Jackie. Jackie would surely know what to do. He went upstairs to the kitchen and called Jackie.
Ring Ring…
Jackie: Hello?
Hyde: Hi is Jackie there?
Jackie: This is her… Hyde?
Hyde: Yeah hey Jackie.
Jackie: Uh, hey. Hyde why are you calling me? I didn't even know that you had my number. Don't you hate me?
Hyde: Yeah I know but I need your help.
Jackie: How much?
Hyde: What?
Jackie: How much money do you need?
Hyde: No, not like that. I need your advice. But not over the phone, can you come to the Forman's?
Jackie: Uh…
Hyde: I know that's a lot to ask after everything that's happened.
Jackie: It's fine… it's actually about time that I showed my face around there. See you in 5.
Hyde: Ok bye.

Jackie sat in front of the Forman's house in their driveway. She was scared to go in because she hadn't seen any of the gang since she found out that Michael had been cheating on her for 3 years with Laurie. It had been 2 ½ months since she saw them and she knew it was time. She got out of her Mustang and walked to the sliding glass door. It was locked. So she went around to the basement door on the outside. When she walked in she expected to see the whole gang in a circle. She expected to see Laurie on Michaels lap like she always used to do, Fez talking about boobs, and Eric and Donna laughing to each other, and then there was Hyde. He would be talking about a car that runs on water and then everyone would through some sort of food substance that they were eating at him. Jackie wouldn't be in that picture. Because now the reality was really coming to life, they really didn't need her. But to her surprise no one was there only Hyde. Just Hyde in his Led Zeppelin shirt and blue jeans. He looked good… for once.
Jackie: Where is everyone?
Hyde: Eric is with Donna, we haven't seen Fez in 2 ½ months and…
Jackie: Michael is with Laurie… I know.
Hyde: I bet its weird being here huh?
Jackie: A little. So what did you need advice with?
Hyde: This is embarrassing…
Jackie: Well hurry up its getting weird being in here.
Hyde: I just asked you if it was weird being in here.Whatever then let's go in the car. The El Camino.
Jackie: Ok.
In the El Camino
Jackie So what do you need help with.
Hyde: There's this girl…
Jackie: Oh my goodness you like a girl. Has hell frozen over?
Hyde: Very funny. I need your help though. I want to tell her that I …
Jackie: Love her?
Hyde: I'm not going to say it!
Jackie: It's not me you love so I don't care.
Hyde: But I want help being…
Jackie: Gentlemanly?
Hyde: Right, and that's where you come in. You are going to help me get her. But no questions about her unless necessary.
Jackie: Who's the girl?
Hyde: Summer.
Jackie: What is she like?
Hyde: Uh… a girl.
Jackie: Wow! Any specifics?
Hyde: I don't know she's like a regular girl.
Jackie: Like a fat Rhonda girl a Laurie girl or a me girl?
Hyde: Kinda like a you girl but not as annoying and selfish.
Jackie: Oh thank you! Your interested in a girl like me?
Hyde: But not as annoying and selfish.
Jackie: Whatever. Is she taken?
Hyde: Not yet. But it won't be long before she finds somebody who isn't me.
Jackie: Ok I will help you…
Hyde: Thanks…
Jackie: But on two conditions.
Hyde: No Jackie no conditions on your terms.
Jackie: Do you want my help or not?
Hyde: Fine what?
Jackie: 1) You can't tell anybody that I am helping you. It will ruin your rep, since I know how much you hate being around me.
Hyde: I wasn't going to tell anybody anyways.
Jackie: Oh…
Hyde: What's condition number 2?
Jackie: You can't question what I teach you. You have to trust me, even though I know it will be hard for you, you just have too.
Hyde: Deal. Do I have to sign something?
Jackie: Very funny. I'll see you tonight at 8 you're taking me out to dinner.
Hyde: But this isn't for you it's for Summer.
Jackie: I know your first lesson will be at dinner tonight. I know the owner of The Hub and he will close early if I ask him too. He owes me. Pick me up at 8. Be Hyde.
Hyde: Bye. Jeez this is going to be harder then I thought.
