Ch.9 Baby Names and Parenting 101
"Steven! We're going to be late for class!" Jackie yelled into her and Hyde's bedroom.
Hyde came out of the room putting on a t-shirt.
"We're teenagers. We're supposed to be late for class."
"Steven let's go now!" Jackie growled.
Hyde sighed and grabbed her arm leading her out of the basement. They sat in silence as Hyde drove the Vista Cruiser to the hospital. He parked the car and turned off the engine, but neither one of them made a move to get out of the vehicle. After a few more minutes Hyde turned to Jackie.
"Ready to learn how to be a parent?" he asked her jokingly.
Jackie smiled a little and nodded her head.
"Yeah. You?"
"Yeah. Plus I hear there's cookies."
"Thanks for coming with me Steven."
"I want to be here Jackie. Come on, let's go doll."
Hyde squeezed her hand and the two teens walked into the hospital. Hyde followed the signs and found the room in the maternity ward Mrs. Forman told him to go to. They entered the room and six pairs of eyes turned to them. Hyde squeezed Jackie's hand and pulled her against him. Mrs. Forman walked into the silent room.
"Hello future mommies and daddies. This is your crash course in parenting. I'm going to teach you all the basics, and I'm going to show you a video that will chronicle labor and delivery. Sound good?" Kitty asked.
All the couples nod their heads.
"Then afterwards we'll have refreshments and think about things." Kitty laughed.
Two hours later Hyde and Jackie were both holding dolls that had fresh diapers on them.
"I changed its diaper!" Jackie smiled proudly.
"Me too." Hyde said.
"So we can now change diapers, feed, and burp. We're doing pretty good." Jackie told him.
"We might just be able to handle this parenting thing." Hyde told her with a smirk.
"And now all we have to do is watch a movie and eat cookies and then we can go home." Jackie told him with a smile.
"And we can do that thing that got us here?" he questioned with a smirk.
"Maybe." Jackie told him teasingly.
"Alright everyone, I'm going to hit the lights and start the movie." Kitty told the class.
The lights dimmed and the TV screen lit up. Hyde and Jackie watched the movie with looks of apprehension and disgust on their faces. A loud scream is heard on screen and then a baby's cries are heard. The lights come on and Jackie and Hyde still have grimaces on their faces.
"Well, I bet all of you are wishing you had used protection aren't you?" Kitty questioned and laughed nervously.
The couples let out a few nervous chuckles but mostly stayed quiet.
"Well how about some cookies and punch?" Kitty asked.
"I don't think I can eat anything after watching that." Hyde told Jackie.
"Will you get me some cookies and punch while I go to the bathroom? Please?" Jackie asked him sweetly.
"Sure." Hyde said.
Jackie gave him a kiss on the cheek and walked toward the bathroom. Hyde went and went to the food, standing behind two guys talking.
"Some video huh?" The older man asked the guy he was talking to.
"I don't know what to think." the other man responded.
"First kid?"
He nodded.
"Don't worry. It's really not that bad. Just remember epidural. Epidural."
The other man nodded.
"Could be worse. You see those two kids here? What in the world? Have you ever seen anything like that? I wonder if that guy is even the father or not. You never can tell with girls like that. What did their parents teach them? I'm not going to let my kids end up like those two."
Hyde stood behind them, emotions changing from amused to pissed off.
"The kind of parents who teach their kids to be a man and talk to someone's face." Hyde told the two men.
They turned around, slightly embarrassed and looked at Hyde. Hyde gave the two a hard glare and stormed out of the room. He grabbed Jackie's arm and the two walked out of the hospital.
"Steven? Steven what's going on?" Jackie asked him.
These people are total assholes. I can't tell her that.
"I just really wanted to get you home." Hyde told her in his most sexy voice.
"Oh Steven." Jackie squealed and kissed him.
Later that night Hyde was sitting in the kitchen with Mrs. Forman.
"I'm sorry about the people in the class Steven. Do you two want to come back?"
"I don't know I'll talk to Jackie about it."
"Ok. Here's the book I promised Jackie. Good night sweetie." She told him and kissed his cheek.
Hyde walked down to the basement and sat on the couch next to Eric.
"Here you go Jackie." Hyde said, giving the book to her.
"Oh! The baby name book! Steven come read this with me!"
"You need a book on baby names?" Hyde asked her.
"Yes! We need to pick out a name for our baby."
"How about hellspawn?" Eric offered.
"Forman." Hyde warned.
"You need a strong name that has class like Michael for a boy and Bambi for a girl." Kelso said.
"I'm not naming my kid after you man." Hyde told him.
"And my daughter is not going to have a stripper name." Jackie added.
"Fine." Kelso sighed.
"In my country a child's name deals with nature. My mother's name in English means song of birds." Fez supplied.
"That's beautiful Fez. What does your name mean?" Donna asked him.
"He who plays with monkeys." Fez said with a smile on his face.
"Do you want our child to have a name like that?" Jackie asked Hyde.
"I already have a named picked out."
"And I told you our son was not going to be named Jimmy Paige Hyde."
"Give me the damn book then."
"Why don't you name your kid Luke? The greatest underdog/hero of our generation." Eric offered.
"Or not." Jackie and Hyde said in unison.
"What do you think of Lena? It means sophisticated." Donna said.
"It sounds too foreign." Jackie dismissed her suggestion.
"Claire? It means bright."
"No."
"Annabel? It means easy to love."
"Annabel. I like it. Annabel Hyde. What do you think Steven?"
"It's not bad. But what if it's a boy?"
"What if it's a girl?"
"We kind of agree on Annabel. What if it's a boy?"
"Fine. What about Steven Jr.?"
"No. What about Brando?"
"As in Marlon?"
"Brando Hyde?" Donna questioned.
"That's kind of a rough name for a kid don't you think?" Eric asked.
"Dylan." Hyde said in perfect Zen.
"Dylan?" Kelso asked confused.
"Dylan as in Bob Dylan." Hyde clarified.
"Steven, you know I don't like Bob Dylan." Jackie whined.
"I do."
"So do I." The rest of the gang agreed.
Eric walked over to the radio and turned it to the local station and turned the volume up. Subterranean Homesick Blues started to play.
"Look Jackie it's a sign." Hyde told her.
"Dylan Hyde." Jackie said aloud. "Ok."
"Ok?" Hyde, Eric, Donna, Fez, and Kelso all asked.
"Ok."
Hyde got up and kissed Jackie and sat in his chair with a triumphant smile on his face.
