Thank You so much for your kind reviews, and as for acc5rod. I will be continuing this story. I never give up on Jackie and Hyde, and you shouldn't either. Zennies should stick together. So this is Chapter 7 and somehow I see this far from the end, if I had 100 chapters would all of you still read?

Chapter 7
Kelso, had just walked in on Jackie basically saying that she really didn't want to marry him, but Steven was his best friend, and yet they continue to fight for Jackie. Whether he has her, or it's vise versa. Nothing between the three of them is at peace. Why was it so important for Steven to have Jackie? And why does Jackie want to be his wife. Why didn't he catch on? He was mad.
"Michael" Jackie softened her voice, he really did love her. She believed in him more than anyone else, more than his own parents, and himself had her moments, she was one of a kind, and he loved her. He somehow knew that when she went with Hyde, the love she had for him would vanish. He thought that maybe if he gave her what Hyde was so stupid to ever give her, that maybe she would one day be in love with him all over again. Maybe it was wrong, but he just wanted her.
"Jackie, why are you with me?" he questioned, fearing the answer but wanting or actually needing to hear it.
"I need to be wanted, I want stability. it's what I never had, and i'm sorry but you see ever since my dad got back, and he knew I was marrying you, he wanted me to end it. Because of who you are, Kelso. But I wanted to prove him wrong, from what he taught me as a little girl"
this caught Hyde's attention more than it should have and he looked up and asked
"what did he teach you?"
she looked down, and then to both of them.
"my father taught me that love is either forever or just for a while, but whatever the case may be, if love ends up hurting me, the boy will fight for me, be worthy of one Jackie Burkhart, that's something I learned as a little girl, as well as even a father ends up hurting you"
so, that was it, that's why jackie wanted him to fight for her, because that's what her father taught her. And he had failed. She had to know that Hyde loved her, she just had to even if he never fought for her.
"and that is why, I choose Kelso. Because unlike Steven he actually tries to fight for me, but he's not worthy of me."
she choose Kelso because he wouldn't fight for her, what kind of crap is that?
"Kelso, you're not worthy of me, because when you broke my heart, Steven was there, to somehow cure it, and eventually, I ended up giving my heart to him."
Kelso, didn't want to understand but he did. When she wanted to marry him, he ran off. And when he came back, he expected her to be there waiting for him, and running to his arms, but actually now that he thinks about it, that doesn't sound like Jackie. Whenever her father left, she didn't cry at least not in public. She put on a smile, and fought whatever anyone says about her or her family. He remembers one day he asked her why, she doesn't let anything anyone says about her or her family get her down, she simply said, I'm a Burkhart it's what we do, but that night she also did find her crying with fluffykins he held her tight, and she said this is what she did when she felt alone in the world, she cried. When Hyde found him in a towel and stormed off, she did the same thing, but at that time she didn't let him hold her, she blamed him. That day she changed back to the old Jackie.
Hyde, knew that he had hurt jackie when he didn't propose when she wanted to, he thought it was because she wanted to get her way once, again. He was wrong, she just wanted to be needed or wanted, and he couldn't really blame her for that. She had so much damage for someone her age, that's what Jackie and Hyde had in common.
To Hyde, Jackie was still the scared little girl that her father left, and her mother didn't care at all. She was still the bossy cheerleader that never shut up. Most of all, she was still his chick and he was going to do whatever it took to make her his and this time he wouldn't screw it up.
"Michael, we have to end this. I can't just settle for you, maybe I would have loved you like I did before, but what if I don't. I don't want to keep you from the girl who will end up loving you as you deserve, maybe one that you won't find a need to cheat on her every chance you got." this was the first boy she ever loved, and back then if you asked Jackie if she saw a future with Kelso she would have said, yes in a heartbeat. Now, she doesn't. If you asked her, she would say that Kelso and her were over for a while, and they both have moved on, and her heart it's still with someone, she thinks will actually make her happy if, he ever got over his zen face to get down on one knee to propose to her the proper way. She was still in love with Steven and every day it killed her more and more.
Kelso, told Jackie he understood he didn't want to keep her from her happiness it's what she deserved and left, he couldn't take it now, losing Jackie again.
It was back to just being Steven and Jackie, in the basement and it was as awkward as it was going to get.
They just looked at each other, and somehow Steven knew what he had to do.
again, i leave you before a contact of Zennie at least, the one where Jackie isn't engaged to Kelso anymore. but i already have the next chapter but what kind of person would i be if i put both of them in one day?
did i mention i have to work at a different resturant Thursday and i'm not too happy about it, it's like ugh i don't wanna, you can ignore this by the way. but like, my boss told me that the manager is on vacation so he's going to and i'm still not happy, why couldn't he choose someone that isn't me, nuff of a rant. Have a nice day/night and remember to Review, as i will remember to update. and besides this story which one of my stories do you want me to update next?
Jackie and Hyde, they are together, wild mustangs took them to their wedding. Fez and Jackie broke up before they got to serious, and hyde was there to hold her though the night, and he finally got down on one knee and proposed to her, like he should have in the season that shouldn't be mentioned or even exist ( i have the complete series, but i never ever watch season 8, it's still wrapped and everything haha) and they're a little Jackie with his eyes, wearing sunglasses everywhere that has the Zen power but gets her way, just like Jackie. For as there has never been a tale so zen, as the one of Jackie and Hyde. (For Anyone, who stopped believing, never stop)
