Chapter 12

Theme 13 Snow: Eric/Jackie

Winter, it was always one of Jackie Burkhart's favorite time of year. Not only was it a glorious time to celebrate the life and love of God and Jesus Christ, but it was a wonderful time to celebrate family and friends. In fact, that was indeed what Jackie was doing on this very week of Christmas.

Jackie, along with the rest of the gangs were at the Forman's house sitting in their basement. Gathered around the television, the group of friends were in winter wear and watching one of the Christmas classics known as The Grinch.

"I still don't get how his heart could grow three seizes in one day." Their foreign exchanged friend known as Fez stated as they began to reach the end of the movie. "I mean, isn't that impossible? I really think he should see a doctor." Fez finished as he took a sip of the hot coco he had in his hands.

This statement caused, Jackie, Eric, Donna and Hyde to laugh to themselves. "Fez, it's just a cartoon. Your heart really can't grow three sizes in one day." Donna Pinciotti explained as she smiled to herself.

Jackie shook her head, "I'd take that argument. Kelso's heart grew three sizes this season." Jackie added.

Everyone slightly groaned.

"Please, like Kelso's heart would ever grow three sizes, the guys an idiot." Hyde mumbled as Donna, Erica and Fez all nodded in agreement. It was then Hyde, looked at her instantly. "No offense."

Jackie shrugged, "Whatever." Jackie replied as she took a sip of her hot coco as well.

"Speaking of which, where is Kelso?" Eric wondered as he looked around his group of friends. "I mean, he NEVER misses The Grinch when we watch it." Eric finished as he frowned in slight worry.

"Oh, he had to help his cousin move into their new apartment." Jackie finished as she frowned.

"Hm…." Hyde stated as he turned to face Jackie with an annoyed look. "…. Too bad he couldn't take you. Then at least Christmas would have a true meaning." Hyde finished thinking he mumbled it low enough so that no one heard him. However; everyone had heard him and Jackie instantly felt insulted and hurt.

"STEVEN!" Jackie screeched with hurt. "Maybe you're the one who's heart needs to grow three sizes!" Jackie shot as she stood up and continued to glare at him while she reached across and knocked his cup of coco out of his hands. "You're a JERK!"

Just like that, she turned and stormed out of the Forman's basement and up the stairs to the driveway. However; she stopped when she reached the old Vista Cruiser and began to think about what just happened. Instantly; she felt stupid and childish for getting upset over something so small. But then, she didn't regret getting upset because well…it hurt. Half the time, Jackie didn't know why she hang out with any of them in the basement, she thought they were her friends, but then again…when have they ever been friends to her? With a frown, Jackie sighed and sat on top of the hood of the Vista Cruiser.

"Jackie…."

This caused her to jump. For Jackie didn't hear anyone walk up to her, she had been so lost in her upset thoughts. Turning to the owner of the voice, Jackie looked on in surprise as Eric Forman stood in front of her. If anything, Jackie always thought that Eric would be the last person to come check on her for anything. So really; could you blame her for being surprised?

"Eric…" Jackie replied as she sat up and crossed her arms. "…. What are you doing out here? Shouldn't you be with those idiots in the basement?" Jackie questioned as she sighed.

"I would – "Eric began as he frowned at the thought. "– But, Hyde and Donna started a screaming match about Hyde being a jerk." Eric stated as Jackie watched him with a cautious look. "Besides, I wanted to make sure you were okay. What Hyde said to you was way out of line." Eric finished as he smiled lightly.

Jackie nodded, "No kidding." Jackie replied as she frowned and placed her head in her hands.

For a while, a moment of silence came over Jackie and Eric as Jackie sat there still feeling upset. Yet, she didn't get to sit there for too long for a sudden cold snowball hit her square on the shoulder. Looking up, she looked around for Eric in confusion only to be taken back in surprise as she was hit in shoulder once more with another snowball. Seeing that grin on Eric's face as he held up another snowball, made Jackie grin and jump off the hood of the car, going for her own snowballs.

Instantly; the two broke out into a big snowball war and began to try and get the other with as many snowballs as they could. Jackie had even surprisingly managed to hit Eric a few times all while Eric continued to aim at her. By the time, they were in the middle of their game, Jackie had ended up hiding behind the Vista Cruiser for protection as Eric hid behind the porch chairs. It took them both a while to calm down once they started, but when they finished, both were lying on the hood of the Vista Cruiser.

While they laid there, watching the snow fall around them, both couldn't help but hold smiles on their faces. The sun peeked out through the gray clouds, and a small winter breeze blew across the yard. Finally; as the moment of silence grew between them, Jackie decided to break it.

"Thank you, Eric, for you know, making me feel better." Jackie began as she tried to word it in a way that it didn't feel odd between the two.

Eric sat up and nodded, "You're welcome." Eric replied as Jackie sat up too. "I know you and I don't always see eye to eye; but, your part of the group Jackie. And when your part of the group; we look out for each other. No matter what the reason is." Eric finished explaining as he smiled.

"Yeah…I just wish everyone thought like you did." Jackie replied as she smiled at Eric.

"You'll just have to ignore Hyde." Eric stated as he frowned. "You know that thing in the back of your mind that tells you not to say stuff when you shouldn't?" Eric wondered as he grinned to himself.

Jackie eyed him in confusion. "Yeah…."

"Well, Hyde doesn't have that a lot of days." Eric finished as he and Jackie laughed to themselves.

"Ain't that the truth." Jackie finished as she sighed, but smiled to herself.

Eric nodded, "Now; come on." Eric stated as he jumped off the hood of the Vista Cruise. "My mom's got more hot coco; and there's a cup in the kitchen with your name on it." Eric finished as he helped Jackie off the car hood.

At the instant; Jackie still had that smile on her face. For some reason, she couldn't get rid of it. Sure, Hyde was a jerk to her sometimes, and sure she didn't always see eye to eye with everyone in her group of friends; but this was the week of Christmas. This was the week for forgiveness and celebrating friends and family. So; with a final decision made up in her mind, she followed Eric into the kitchen…
