Could you, a-would you
Um, hold me in your arms
A-show me all your charms

Jackie blinked the sleep out of her eyes and groaned; she had to use the bathroom again. "Just another two months…" She repeated in her head. She's been repeating that for the last week and the results were kind of like watching water boil. Or paint dry. Or anything else that takes way too long if you sit and stare at it.
She crawled over a snoring Hyde to get out of bed and yawned, she stumbled out of the room for the bathroom. Turning on the water to wash her hands, she froze. There was a diamond ring on her finger. On her left hand. On the finger a wedding ring's supposed to go on. She touched the ring to see if it were really there and gaped. She rushed back into the room and shook Hyde; he waved her off and turned to face the wall.
She rolled her eyes and shook him again, "Steven! Wake up!"
"Jackie, what the hell?" Hyde groaned.
"Get up!"
"Time is it?"
"What is this?"
He groggily turned around and she held up her finger.
His eyes focused in on the ring and he smirked, "What's it look like?"
She looked back at the ring and then at him, "Oh! Oh my god! Oh my god!"
He smiled as she looked at it again, beaming.
"Steven!" She kissed him and he encircled his arms around her waist and pulled her on top of him, she pulled up and looked at him, still smiling.
His eyebrows rose, "So, yes, no, maybe so? What?" He grinned.
"What do you think?" She kissed him again.

Could you love me
Like I love you-ooo
Like I love you-ooo-ooo

"It's not going to stop ringing if you don't pick it up." Eric yawned, nodding to the phone.
Donna growled in response and pulled the blankets over her head.
"Okay, so I'll pick up the ringing phone in three o clock in the morning. Can't possibly be bad news." He got up and headed for the telephone, he turned back and pointed to her, "That was sarcasm by the way."
"Hello?"
"Eric?" Jackie answered enthusiastically.
"Um, Jackie? You do realize it's, ah, I don't know, THREE O CLOCK IN THE MORNING?"
"Whatever, Eric, put Donna on!" The excitement rose in her voice.
"She's dead, call back later."
"I'm serious, Eric, come on! I have news! Good news!"
"I should have known Hyde would have picked three o clock in the morning to do this. That dirty rat."
"Put her on!"
Eric dropped the phone on the table and poked Donna, "Jackie wants to talk to you. She has news."
Donna grabbed the phone and mumbled incoherently before speaking, "Yes Jackie?"
"I'm getting married!"
She groaned, "He proposed now?"
"Well, not exactly. He put the ring on my finger while I was sleeping, how romantic is that?" She gasped, "Oh my god, I'm in my own romance novel!"
"Jackie, that's not being romantic. That's being lazy."
"Whatever, I'm getting married!"
"Okay, can I go back to sleep now?"
"How can you sleep with this news?"
"I think I'll manage."
"All right, I have to call everyone else too anyway."
"Who's everyone else? We know two other people."
"I know, I'm sure Fez and Michael would love to know right now."
Donna snorted, "Kay, night Jackie."
"Night!" She heard a click and threw the phone back on the table.
"Eric?"
"Mm?" He was already back in bed and snuggled deep in the covers.
"Can you hang the phone up? It's too far away for me to reach."
He kicked the blankets off and stomped over to the phone, picking it up he put it back on the hook and pulled the wire out of the wall.
"There."
~^~
Could you, a-would you
Um, a-squeeze a-hold me tight
A-love me all through the night
And never ever let me go
~^~
"Jackie." Hyde took her hand away from the phone, "You can call them tomorrow."
She smiled at him and went for another kiss, "You're right, Red and Kitty should know first."
She hopped up and went for the door.
Hyde stopped her, "Remember what happened last time when Forman walked unannounced into his parent's bedroom in the middle of the night?"
She froze, "Ew!"
He laughed, "Exactly. Now let's just go back to sleep." He laid down and closed his eyes.
"Steven!" Jackie shook him, "How can you sleep?"
He blinked at her and then smirked, "Well, what do you suggest we do?"
A grin spread across her face, "Hmm, we can either… discuss baby names or wedding dates?"
He closed his eyes again.
She crawled into bed and kissed around his jaw line, "Or…."
His eyes popped back open, "Or?"
She slid her robe off and continued to nip at his lips, "We can…" She straddled him and started to stroke him through his sweat pants.
He gulped as she hooked her thumbs around the waistband and tugged them down; she took a hold of his cock and lightly sucked the tip into her mouth. He let out a strangled moan and arched his hips forward, earning and squeak from Jackie. The sound created vibrations around him and she started to roll her tongue up and down his length.
"Jackie…" He looked down at her, her soft hair fell against his thighs and her head bobbed up and down.
Just looking at her do this was bringing him closer to the edge, he put his hands on her head just to feel her and pressed his head down against the pillow. She sucked harder when she got to the tip and licked the rest of the way down, she kept on until she heard his breathing turn ragged and pre cum filled her mouth. Swallowing, she continued and let go with a pop. He was almost there and she let go, his eyes opened to see her position herself on top of his and slam down on his erection.
As his hips rose, he brought both of them off the bed, his hands finding their way to her hips and pressing her even harder down on him. She gyrated against him as they found a rhythm; her moans were delicious as they echoed off the walls. She panted his name and rode him even faster, the end coming too close. Throwing her head back she screamed and he flipped them over, driving her deeper into the bed as he exploded.

"Jackie!"
Kitty's head shot up at the faint scream downstairs and she heaved a sigh, "Red!" She nudged him awake.
"What, Kitty?" He slowly turned around and squinted up at her in the darkness.
She made a face toward the door, "Steven and Jackie are…"
"Oh, cripes, not again! Kitty, don't tell me these things!" Red shook his head.
"Well, what am I supposed to Red? They woke me up."
"I'm going to kick their asses." He made a move to get up.
"No, no, don't embarrass them…just, I think we'll have a talk with them tomorrow." She nodded decisively.
"About how hard I'm going to kick their ass if this happens again?"
"I'll talk to them." Kitty reiterated.
~^~
Jackie and Hyde walked into the kitchen the next morning hand in hand to find Kitty and Red sitting at the table waiting for them. Red had an evil smirk on his face and Hyde raised a brow.
"Morning!" Kitty chirped, "You kids hungry? Oh, I bet you are." She rushed to the fridge and pulled out an egg carton.
"Actually, Steven and I have some news." Jackie beamed and had her arms crossed behind her back.
Kitty put the eggs down, "Oh, in that case we have something to discuss with you, first."
Red shot up, "Kitty, not at the table." He made his way out of the kitchen and into his den, "Now you can go!"
Rolling her eyes, Kitty pulled two chairs out for them to sit.
She fidgeted with her hands and made a face, "Hmm, okay. When you and Jackie are showing…your… affection for each other, we—"
Hyde was in mid swallow with his orange juice and almost choked.
Jackie's jaw dropped, "What?"
"Oh, honey, it's nothing to be ashamed of…but, well, we were just wondering if you'd do so more…." Kitty gestured with her hands, "Quietly."
Jackie covered her mouth as her face turned the color of a tomato and Hyde was still coughing down his juice.
"Of course, Mrs. Forman." Hyde choked out, looking over to see Jackie turn even redder.
They sat in awkward silence until Kitty noticed the diamond on Jackie's finger.
"Jackie! Is that an engagement ring?" She turned to Hyde, "Steven, did you propose?"
Hyde grinned, "More or less."
Jackie suddenly beamed again, "Yes! That's what we wanted to tell you," She shot her hand out to Kitty to let her see.
"Goodness, would you look at that!" Kitty sat up, "Red! Come over here!"
Red entered the kitchen warily, "Yes, Kitty?"
Jackie jumped up and showed him her ring, "Look!"
"Huh." Red took her hand and examined the ring, "This almost looks real."
Hyde rolled his eyes, "That's 'cause it is."
Red suddenly smiled, "Does this mean you're moving out?"
Kitty smacked his shoulder, "No! They're going to stay here until I'm done taking care of the wittle baby." She looked longingly at Jackie's stomach.
"Well, when you do move out, don't be afraid to go the distance." He grinned.
"Will do, Red." Hyde took Jackie's hand and led her out.

"You know what I just realized?" Eric spoke up in the circle, "Every single one of us is either engaged or divorced now." He started to crack up.
Fez grinned, "Finally, I'm two steps ahead of your asses."
"That's not something to be proud of, Fez." Hyde said.
"You know, does that mean we're all adults now?" Kelso asked.
Eric looked at him, "Some of us."
"I need a wife." Fez stated sadly.
"Think you want a girlfriend first." Hyde suggested.
Kelso shook his head, "Nah, man, he's right. Wives the way to go, girlfriends expect too much outta ya. Wives? Now they don't expect anything."
Eric snorted, "Except for Jackie," He grinned at Hyde.
"Ah, speaking of my pregnant candy goddess of love, what are you getting her for Christmas?" Fez asked.
Hyde made a face, "Man, what'd I tell you about that goddess of love shit?" He paused, "Wait, what? I have to get her something for Christmas too?"
Kelso looked at him like he was from another planet, "Uh, yeah? Even I know that."
Eric scratched his head, "Is it bad that I only got Donna one present?"
"At least you got her a present," Fez laughed at Hyde.
"You know how much that ring cost, man? I don't have any money for something else." Hyde said.
"Hah, you got her a ring." Kelso held his stomach choking back laughter.
"You mean you didn't get Brooke a ring?" Eric asked.
"Ah, you cheap son of a bitch, you." Fez said.
"What the hell am I going to get her? Wait, what am I saying? That ring was her gift. That's it." Hyde crossed his arms.
"I told Brooke it was on layaway because I wanted to get her the most expensive ring there."
"So?" Eric asked.
"So, can't you see? He's lying. Liar!" Fez accused, laughing.
"She won't be expecting anything…" Hyde muttered to himself.
"Oh, and then I'll just tell her I got the wrong ring size and they're fixing it until I get enough money to get a decent one." Kelso grinned.
"That actually sounds like it could work." Eric mused.
"I want a ring made of candy." Fez said.
Hyde suddenly got up and all the guys flinched back, startled. "I'll be right back." He said, leaving.
"Whoa." Kelso held his head, "Now I'm dizzy."
"Yeah, wasn't one of the circle rules not to get up so fast?" Eric rubbed his eyes.
Fez half shrugged and tipped over.

"What else should I get Steven for Christmas?" Jackie asked, swinging her shopping bag.
"Didn't you already get him two things?" Donna said, checking out the shirts in the window.
"Yeah, but I can't just give him the Pink Floyd album, and the lingerie he can't really open Christmas morning…" Jackie giggled.
"Jackie, it's Christmas Eve tomorrow. Shouldn't you have thought of this earlier?"
She pouted, "I got distracted." She grinned at her ring.
"Well—" Donna stopped mid sentence and nodded over in the other direction, "Is that Hyde?"
Jackie looked over, "Oh my god, it is!" They both looked at each other.
Donna spoke, "What the hell is he doing in the mall?"
"Ooh, let's follow him." Jackie took Donna's hand and ducked behind one of the potted plants.
"Jackie, what if he's just…" Donna started, "Oh, what's that in his hand?"
"A jewelry box!" Jackie squealed, "He's opening it, what is it, what is it?"
Donna squinted, "I can't tell."
"Is he getting me more jewelry?" Jackie stood a little.
Donna pulled her back down, "Stop, he'll see you!"
"He has his shades on, he can't see anything." Jackie giggled, "Why do you think he walks so slow? He's trying to navigate his way with out bumping into anything."
Donna laughed.
"What are you two doing?" Hyde asked from behind them.
They both jumped up.
Jackie's jaw dropped, "Uhm, we—"
"I dropped my earring." Donna said.
Hyde inspected her ears, "You're not wearing any earrings,"
"Yeah, I was trying to put them on and one of them fell."
"And I was helping her." Jackie added.
Hyde had his arms behind his back and Jackie leaned to the side to see what it was.
He turned with her and hid it further.
"So, Hyde, what are you doing at the mall anyway?" Donna asked.
"Forman couldn't pick you guys up, so here I am." He grinned.
Jackie suddenly leaned up and kissed him, she slid her arms around his waist and he lifted the bag he held over his head as her hands roamed to find it.
"Guys, come on, ew." Donna nudged them and walked off in the opposite direction.
Jackie pulled back and frowned, he grinned and threw an arm over her shoulder, leading her to the exit.

Could you, a-would you,
Um hold, hold me oh so near
While I whisper in your ear
The sweet words you long to hear
