Jackie Burkhart walked into Eric Forman's basement. She had hoped to find her best friend Donna in the basement but instead her ex boyfriend Stephan was sitting there. Jackie thought about escaping back outside but she knew she would look lame and Stephan had already looked up at her. He glanced back down at the magazine in his lap and began reading it.

"Hey," she said. He nodded at her. After their breakup the two rarely spoke. He had been the one to marry a stripper but he had reason to believe she had cheated on him though, although the whole her and Kelso incident was a huge misunderstanding. "So, I um was just wondering if you knew where Donna is. I have to tell her something." She sat down on the coach.

She expected Stephan to shake his head but instead he gave her a spoken answer. "Nope, I have no idea where Donna is. She's probably at her house."

"No, I was just there, moving all my clothes out of her house. I didn't see her."

"So you moved out of Donna's?" He asked not looking up from his magazine.

"Yep," is all Jackie said. Stephan nodded his head apparently dismissing the conversation.

Jackie sighed. "Look Ste…Hyde." This got her the reaction she wanted he turned to look at her, and took of his sunglasses.

"Jackie did you just call me Hyde?" He asked surprised.

"Look I just wanted to say, that I know while we were dating that I was a little self absorbed and I was always bothering you, and trying to get you to commit full time to me. I get how annoying that must have been." She said.

He looked shocked was Jackie trying to apologize to him.

"And I just want to say that I'm sorry, and that I understand why you didn't want to marry me and you went off and married someone else to show me that." She said.

"Jackie I didn't marry Sam so I wouldn't have to marry you." He said. "I married Sam cause I drank to many beers that night." He said.

Jackie nodded her head and made a fake smile. "Yeah sure okay St… Hyde. I'm sure that's why." She said sarcastically.

"No I'm serious Jackie." He said sounding annoyed.

"Uhuh, wow really St… Hyde you don't have to lie to make me feel better."

He rolled his eyes and returned to his magazine. Jackie got up and walked over to the door. When she got there she turned around and looked sadly at Hyde. "Goodbye Stephan," she said walking out the door.

Hyde went into his room. He saw the unicorn calendar Jackie had bought him three months back. He glanced at today's date. He saw it had been circled. It read Jackie's birthday and had lots of hearts around it. Underneath it she had wrote, Buy me something nice!

Hyde felt an overwhelming guilt spread over him. He didn't know why, they had broken up three months ago and he was with Sam now. Although he never felt very close to Sam like he did Jackie.

It was her nineteenth birthday today. He wondered why she had chosen that day to move out of Donna's house and into the one with her mother who she pretty much hated.

It had been three days and Jackie had yet to show in Eric's basement. No one was mentioning her so Hyde was starting to wonder what was up. Eventually one day when Donna, Kelso and Fez were all sitting in the basement he brought it up.

"So, uh I noticed Jackie hasn't been around for awhile is she still moving all her stuff into her moms house?" He asked.

Donna looked at him funny. "Hyde, Jackie's mom left like six months ago. Didn't she tell you that?"

"No," Hyde said feeling bad. That had been when they were together why hadn't she told him?

"Oh yeah, well you were never that compassionate when her dad was put in jail so maybe she just didn't want a repeat of that. But Jackie's not living with her mom."

"Oh so she got her own apartment?"

"Uh no," Donna said looking down at her shoes. The others avoided eye contact with Hyde, but exchanged glances with each other.

"Wait, what's going on?" Hyde asked just as Sam walked in.

"Oh look at the time, I have to go." Donna got up fastly and walked out of the room. Kelso followed. Fez made a perverted comment to Sam and then left to find the other two.

"Your friends don't like me that much do they?" Sam asked.

Hyde shrugged he was trying to figure out where Jackie had gone. Not that he cared, he just hated it when his friends new something he didn't.

Sam sighed. " So it was a long day at work." She said. He nodded at her and turned on the TV.

About an hour later Sam left to go to the movies and Hyde went to go see what was going on at Donna's house.

"So-" Hyde said walking in the door. "You were telling me about Jackie. So where's she living if not with her mom or by herself."

Donna Kelso and Fez all stayed quiet.

"You know it's her birthday today right? I mean why did she move out on her birthday?" Donna shrugged. "Common guys what aren't you telling me?"

"Hyde we know it's Jackie's birthday today. We through her a party last night!" Kelso said. Donna smacked him over the head.

"You guys had a party without me?" Hyde asked. "Wait was there beer?"

"Yeah there was deffinatly beer Donna got a little tipsy and we made out." Fez said. Donna gave him a look.

"Fez that's a lie if Donna had gotten drunk she would have been making out with me not you." Kelso said.

"Oh shut up, you guys need to stop making up stories." Donna said pushing them out of the way. "Look Hyde it was Jackie's ninteenth birthday we figured she wouldn't want you there, since you broke her heart in all so we kept it a secret. But I guess you should know it wasn't just a birthday party Hyde."

"Okay then what else was it?" He asked.

"It was a going away party. Jackie left town yesterday said maybe she could start over new, and find a job with television or something. She figured no one would mind."

Hyde sat down. "Why didn't you guys tell me?" He asked.

"Cause it's none of your buisness really I mean Jackie didn't really want you to find out, and I mean we figured you wouldn't care." Donna said.

Kelso and Fez nodded their heads.

"I mean if I was having a birthday party right before I left town I wouldn't want Eric to come." Donna said.

"Yeah but Eric is in Africa so I don't think he would mind not being invited." Fez said.

"Still," Donna said. "You know what I mean?"

"Did she leave because of me?" Hyde asked feeling bad. Donna looked at Kelso and Fez.

"Uh no, I don't think so."

"What are you talking about of course that's why she left," Kelso said.

"Kelso."

"What?"

"He already feels bad enough. But Hyde you ditched her to be with Sam so-"

"I never said I felt bad. I don't feel bad. I was just wondering if why she left was because of me. I don't feel bad." He said. The gang nodded. "I should go." Hyde said leaving the three of them.

It had been six months. Still no sign from Jackie. It was weird even Eric had come home by then and him and Donna were back together. Sam had left him awhile ago. It was his choice she had apparently been married before, and he had sent her home. He never really loved her anyway so it wasn't that upsetting.

Finally after Hyde had decided there was no way Jackie was coming back she walked into Eric's basement.

The whole gang was in the basement.

She was wearing a long sleved shirt and jeans. Her hair had grown out so it was half way down her back. She looked sort of sad when she walked in but she smiled when she saw everyone.

"Jackie?" Donna screamed letting go of Eric and flying up from the coach. "Oh my god, how are you?" She said giving her a hug.

"Great." She smiled but it looked fake to Hyde.

Kelso got up and threw his arms around her. "Wow Jackie you look great." He said pushing Donna out of the way.

Somehow she looked different to Hyde. She was thinner and seemed shorter, but her smile seemed so fake and she looked unhappy. He also noticed a huge bruise around her eye, and wondered what it was from.

"Thanks Michael." She said laughing.

Fez got up and gave her a hug too. "Wow Jackie we really missed you." He said burying his face in her neck. His eyes started to water and a sob escaped him.

"Fez are you crying?" Kelso asked him laughing.

"No," Fez said. "I am just so happy Jackie is back." She patted him on the back.

Eric stood up too and Hyde was appaled when he put his arm around her awkwardly and gave her a one armed hug.

"Jackie it's been weird without you. Very quiet, although at first it was nice. But it's good to have you back."

"Aw thanks Eric. I sort of missed you too." She said.

It was Hyde's turn now but he didn't know what to say.

"Hey Jackie," Hyde said finally. She looked kind of stunned obviously thinking he wouldn't talk to her.

"Hey Stephan," she said. " So how are all of you guys?" She asked addressing the whole group.

"Okay, it's been pretty boring around here lately but Jackie now that your back I'm sure it will be a lot more fun." Kelso said winking at her. Hyde had an urge to punch him.

"Actually Kelso I don't think that's a good idea." Jackie said.

"Oh really why not?" Kelso said seeming insulted.

"Well because I have a boyfriend." Jackie explained.

"Well he's not here right now Jackie he's wherever you used to be trust me he doesn't have to know." Kelso said.

"Actually he is here." She opened the door and a cute dark haired guy walked in. "Everyone this is Kyle."
