February 14th…there wasn't a day in the year that Hyde hated more. It was the day that stated "All men had to buy their girlfriends/wife's flowers, jewelry and candy". And honestly…that just wasn't something Steven Hyde did. Jackie had been hinting for weeks that she wanted a bouquet of roses, candy or maybe even some jewelry. Hyde would not pay attention to her while she was talking and then blow her off. And she still didn't stop…The day before Valentine's Day, Hyde was sitting in his usual chair listening to his friends discuss what they were getting for their girlfriends. Eric was getting roses and a necklace for Donna, and Kelso was getting roses and a bracelet for Brooke. And Fez…Fez was just buying candy in hopes of finding a girl to give them to if he didn't eat them first. He groaned and started to walk towards his room when Eric stopped him.

"What are you getting Jackie?" Eric asked.

Hyde sighed and turned towards his friends.

"Nothing."

"Whoa…man you can't get a chick like Jackie nothing." Kelso said. "I did that one year and she refused to have sex with me."

"Yeah well she can just get over it Kelso. I don't do gushy romantic things. It just isn't me. And if that upsets Jackie well that's just to damn bad."

"Wow…that's harsh." Fez said with a frown.

"Whatever."

"But Hyde man…don't you think you owe it to Jackie to get her something for Valentine's Day? I mean even if it is just one flower or something?" Eric asked.

"What do you mean I owe it to her Foreman?"

Eric thought about how to say what he wanted to say without completely pissing Hyde off. He soon realized there was no way around it.

"Well…I just…uh…I mean…"

"Spit it out Foreman!"

"Its just…man you guys just got back together."

"You mean because I cheated on her I owe it to her to do something romantic?"

"Hyde…man…I just…"

"No say it Eric. Say what you want to say and stop being a pansy!"

"Fine! I think it was really stupid of you to cheat on Jackie. I mean lets face it…I'm not Jackie's number one fan. But…she was good for you and after everything Kelso put her through she didn't deserve to be cheated on by you. And you're lucky that she forgave your sorry ass. You two just got back together and you should do something sweet for her to let her know you do care about her. Otherwise, you're going to loser her again Hyde!"
With that Eric stormed out of the basement away from Hyde. Hyde sighed and Kelso and Fez sat there uncomfortably unsure of what to say to Hyde.

"Uh…Hyde…?" Fez said.

"What do you guys think?" Hyde asked.

"I mean…well…Jackie is a good girl. I shouldn't have cheated on her and I thought with you, you would treat her better…so…yeah I do think you should do something for her."

"And you Fez?"

"Well you know I think Jackie is a goddess…if I were her boyfriend I would tell her how much I love her every day."

Hyde sighed.

"Yeah…that's what I thought."

Hyde went to his room and slammed the door shut and sat on his bed. He put his head in his hands and tried to figure out what to do. He didn't want to change for anyone. He was Steven Hyde the bad boy rebel and everyone knew that for a fact. But Jackie…Jackie was important to him and she deserved someone who should buy her flowers so that she would know how special she was. He looked over to the table beside his bed and saw a picture of the two of them. Hyde wasn't really smiling, while Jackie looked beautiful and she was kissing his cheek. He smiled at the memory of when that was taken; Kitty had taken it on Hyde's 18th birthday. They weren't even together yet but she still took it. They had been sitting on the couch together talking and Kitty came over to take a picture. Hyde had protested and didn't want to take the picture. But Jackie kissed his cheek just as Kitty snapped the picture. He rubbed his cheek remembering the feeling of her lips on his cheek that day. He thought he ad started to fall in love with her that day. His thoughts were interrupted by the petite brunette knocking on his door. She peeked her head in and smiled at him.

"Hey…" She said softly.

He took a deep breathe. "Hey back."

"Can I come in?"

"Of course."

Jackie smiled and shut the door behind her sliding into Hyde's bed behind him. She wrapped her legs around his waist from behind and rested her chin on his shoulder. He took her arms and wrapped them around his front and smiled.

"Hey are you ok?" She asked kissing his ear.

"Yeah…just thinking."

"About what?"

"Oh nothing really…"

Jackie sighed but she knew better than to push Hyde when it came to things like this. He wasn't good with sharing his emotions and feelings so she often let him be silent and figure it out for himself. If he came to her than she would listen to every word he said in hopes of being able to help him somehow. She kissed his cheek.

"Ok…"

She took her hands back and started to rub his back gently and he groaned loving the feelings she was causing. He was tense and tired and she was making him feel better…like she always did.

"Jackie…"

"Yeah babe?" She said as she continued to massage his back and shoulders.

"I uh…never mind."

Jackie stopped massaging his back for a moment sad that he didn't feel that he could talk to her about thins that were bothering him.

"Oh…ok…"

He knew he had disappointed her again and his heart ached. He stood up from his place on the cot and didn't turn to look at her. He grabbed his coat and slipped it on and wiped his face over his face as he sighed deeply. He turned towards her and saw how small she truly looked on his cot. She looked sad; the usual sparkle in her eyes was gone because she knew he was upset about something.

"You uh…you want to go to the Hub? I'm kinda hungry."

"Um…no…I just ate at home. You go…I guess…I guess I'll see you later or something."
She said in just a whisper. He stared at her for a moment; he had wanted her to go with him. He wanted to spend sometime with his doll but he knew she was upset now and there was nothing he could say or do to make her feel better. Or rather there was something he could say or do…but he didn't know how to say it or do it.

"Oh…ok…Yeah…I'll see you later."

She stood up and started to walk towards the door slower and less perky than usual. Hyde watched her walk away and stopped her before she left completely.

"Hey Jacks?"

She turned to look at him.

"Yeah?"

He walked over to her and pulled her up against his body and kissed her with all the passion he had for her within him. When he pulled away Jackie looked dazed and he smiled kissing her lips once more.

"Bye."

"Uh…bye…"

She turned around and stumbled a bit almost walking into the wall. Hyde held in a small laugh and she pulled herself together and left. As Hyde watched her leave his room and then the basement he realized Foreman was right…He had to do something for Jackie for Valentine's Day no matter how much he hated the holiday.
