Over the next 3 months Eric and Jackie's relationship grew but nothing extreme happend. She didn't get drunk, they didn't finally have sex, and there weren't any problems.

The more Eric talked to Jackie, the more he liked her. Eric had known Jackie for a long time, so it didnt take long for him to fall in love with her. He had known a lot about her anyway, but they had always seemed so negative. Now though...all the negative things about her turned positive. Like the fact that she talked a lot. He use to think that was annoying, but he found that it was cute. And a lot of the things she had to say were pretty cool. He just never use to listen to her becuase he assumed the things she talked about would be stupid and annoying.

And now, at the end of every converstaion they had, he felt closer to her. And everytime she kissed him..he just felt good. Better than good. He felt wonderful when she kissed him. And not just when she kissed him. Whenever she put her hand on his knee, held his hand, or hugged him he loved it and wished it would last forever.

Location: Jackie's Apartment

Eric and Jackie were at Jackie's apartment alone. Eric was lying down on the couch and Jackie was lying down on top of him, her head resting on his chest. "Try a Little Tenderness-Otis Redding" was playing. Fez was out with Kelso at some place that Kelso had "guaranteed" hot babe action. Jackie was just talking away.

"..And so I said to her that if she wanted that shirt, she'd have to go through me. And she said "whatever" and walked away. So that's how I got this shirt. Isn't that neat?"

"Yeah. You bet." His eyes were closed and he had kind of zoned out, but then zoned back in when she said 'isn't that neat'.

"Isn't it a great shirt, though?"

"Yeah. It's awesome. But Jackie-for future references- next time i say something like 'i like that shirt'..don't go into a very very long story about how you got it."

"You didn't like my story?" she asked in a fake pout.

"Oh, no I loved the story," he lied. "Just don't ever go into one that long again...unless it's about how incrediably sexy I am..or star wars."

"Trust me, Eric, you will never ever hear me talk about Star Wars."

"Yeah, I know." He shrugged. "But a man can dream, can't he?" Jackie laughed a little, and when she did, Eric's heart jumped and his stomache did turns. He smiled.

"So since I've told you what I did today," Jackie started. "How about you tell me what-"

"I love you." He didn't know where the words came from. It's like his heart was his brain for a second and he just said the words.

Right when he was about to defend himself instead of getting into another awkward sitiuation like he did with Donna, Jackie lifted her head from his chest and kissed him lightly on the lips and said. "I love you too, Eric." Eric smiled and pulled her head down for another kiss. After a second he deepend the kiss, but after a second or two of the deepend kiss Jackie pulled back and laid her head on his chest again.

"So..what did you do today?"

Location: The Basement

Kelso, Donna, Hyde, and Fez were all in the basement watching talking about which show was better, 'Gilligan's Island' or 'I love lucy'. Hyde was sitting in his regular chair, Kelso was sitting on the couch, Donna was sitting beside him, and Fez was sitting in the other chair.

Eric came through the door and sat down on the other side of Kelso. "Guess what?" Before anyone could ask what he answered. "I told Jackie I loved her."

There was a little silence but then Kelso spoke up. "You can't just go around lying like that, man."

Eric glared at him for a second. "I wasn't lying you idiot."

"So what happend?" asked Fez.

This is when Eric smiled. "She said it back. Isn't that awesome! I said 'i love you' and nothing exploded in my face! She just smiled and said 'i love you too!'...For once I didn't mess something up!"

"Well..obviously, she was lying." Kelso said as if it were obvious.

"Why would she lie, Kelso?" asked Hyde.

"Because, Jackie loves me."

Everyone stared at him for a second. But then Eric spoke, "Did you get dropped on your head when you were little?"

Kelso laughed a little and then asked, "Why?"

"Ok, forget about Kelso," said Donna. "So, you told her you loved her, she told you she loved you...then what happend?"

"Well..we made out for a minute...and then she just brought up what we were talking about before I said it."

"Wow..maybe you really did manage not to screw anything up this time." Hyde slapped his on the back as a congradulation. "Good for you man."

"Well...maybe not now," said Fez. He shrugged. "But we all know that it's just a matter of time."

"Thank you Fez," Eric said sarcastically. "That's real nice."

"Hey, the truth doesnt always have to be nice." Fez shrugged. "I mean look at me. I have no girlfriend, the girl i live with wont have sex with me because she's dating you, and all i have is my candy." He got angrier as he kept talking. "AND I'M NOT HAPPY! I'M NOT!" Everyone stared at him strangely, but then he smiled. "Actually I am, because from time to time I accidently walk in on Jackie naked in the shower."

Eric stared at him. "What the hell man!"

"Oh, I'm sorry Eric," Fez said nervously. "But I promise, all the times I walked in on her were accidents..except for like..4 times. Those were on purpose... Aye!" Fez got up and ran out the door. "I'll see you guys later!"

"This is just great," Eric started as soon as Fez was gone. "Fez has seen my girlfriend naked before me."

"What!" Kelso looked shocked. "You and Jackie haven't done it yet? I thought you told her you loved her!"

"I did, but that doesnt really have anything to do with sex kelso."

"That's the only time I tell a girl I love her."

"Kelso, you pig!" Donna rabbit-punched him on the arm.

"Ow! Donna!..Stop it!" Donna rabbit-punched him again. "Stop it Donna! Or I'm leaving!" Donna rabbit-punched him again. "Donna! Ok Fine! That's it. I'm leaving!" Kelso got up and walked out of the door angrily.

"What a moron." Hyde shook his head. He looked at Eric who was smiling happily. "Could you stop smiling like that? You're freaking me out!"
"Sorry, it's just...I feel..good." Eric's smile grew wider. "I could dance right now. I'm not going to ..but I could. THat's how happy I am." He stood up. "I"m gonna go upstairs and take a shower. I'm gonna sing loud in the shower too. I'm gonna sing the songs that the angels sing."

"Shut up, Forman."

"Ok." And with that Eric walked up the stairs to take a shower.

Donna that it felt strange hearing that Eric loved another girl...but she was sure it was normal for an ex-girlfriend to feel that way...
