Hyde's POV
She doesn't remember... What the hell is that all about? Did she block it out of her head like it was the worst thing in the world? Because believe me all I want to do is not remember what happened... It's been a week and I still can't get over the fact that it still hasn't came back to her.
It's just me and Eric in the basement, and I can tell he wants to do some guy to guy taking. Which is never really guy to guy with him. More like girl to guy...
"So Hyde, you never really told me what happened with you and Jackie, wanna explain?" He asks
"Ummm how about, no." He had to expect me not to tell him.
"Come on man, is it really that bad?
"To me it was"
"Oh so then it was actually nothing..."
"No man, it was just.. Embarrassing" and it was. I felt so dumb after what happened. I felt like a jerk. To be honest, I kinda was.
"For you or for her?"
"Both maybe"
"Just say it Hyde, I won't tell anyone I'm just so nosy." Eric says, which is totally true.
"Fine." Its gonna come out anyways right?
"Yes! Win for Forman..." I glare at him and he clears his throat "go ahead please"
"Jackie tried to kiss me and I let her."
"How is that embarrassing?" He asks.
"When it was over..."
Flashback
"Wow..." She says. She looks so beautiful all in red. I'm finally with her, like this again and it felt great.
"I know..."
"I love you Steven" she blurts out. What did she just say? On the inside I think my heart stopped out of happiness, but all my mouth could do was make a surprised face. My body stepped back a little.
"I think you're just drunk Jackie." I said. Seems like a logical explanation.
"Wait, what? Does that mean you don't love me? I may be drunk Steven, but that kiss cleared things up for me. I thought maybe it did for you too..." She says laying it all out on the line.
"It was just a kiss Jackie, it's Valentines Day ok? I'm just trying to clear my head."
"Of course it was... That's all anything is to you right? You can't be in love because you are a heartless asshole! Have a good Valentines Day... HYDE!" she said and stormed out.
It seemed like a logical explanation...
End of Flashback
"You can really be a douche Hyde." Eric says
"I know that Captain Obvious"
"I don't get it though, you said it wasn't just a kiss, and what you just told me was. I mean even though you were an ass nothing else happened... Did it?"
Back to Flashback
I grab her arm before she can go anywhere.
"Wait Jackie, I'm sorry. You just drank so much and I drank so much. I don't think either of us knew what we were doing or what we just said." Before I can say anything else to make her forgive me she puts her lips on mine and drags me to the bathroom.
When she stars trying to unzip her dress I say "Jackie what's going on?"
"You said you wanted to clear your head, so I'm helping" she answers.
Before I can say or think anything after that she- well let's just say she "cleared my head"...
Flashback Over
"You did it with Jackie!" Eric yells at me
"Shut it Forman! I don't want anyone to hear us and tell Jackie!"
"Wait a second, she said she was at the motel room with Chris"
"I know doofus, that's why I never told her. I didn't want to make a big deal out of it. It clearly didn't mean anything to her if right after she slept with someone else... "
"Aww Hydie is jealous...how cute" I frog him in the shoulder and give him my "I'll kill you if you tell anyone stare".
"I promise I won't tell anyone, don't worry Jackie will never find out!" He says.
I hear a noise from the stairs, but decide to ignore it. No could have heard us. No one is here... Right?
