Hey guys! Once again thanks for the many reviews! I loved them! And they made me find the time today in my most busiest of days to write you all a new chapter! So...read this one and then REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW!


When the Paramedics got there, Hyde's mind went into overdrive. He watched them carry Jackie onto the stretcher and into the back of the ambulance. Someone had to push him into the car because his feet seemed to be permanently stuck to the ground in pure fear. His mind was reeling with a million horrible outcomes of this situation, all of them ending with him all by himself living in pure misery, without the love of his life…or his unborn child. He snapped out of his thoughts when one of the Paramedics squeezed his shoulder and urged him to follow them into the hospital. As he followed the Doctors into the hospital, one of them stopped Hyde as they wheeled Jackie into a far off hallway.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

The Doctor tried to smile at him. "Mr…?"

"Hyde." He said.

The Doctor nodded. "Mr. Hyde…you are going to have to wait out here while we run some tests on your wife to determine the problem." He said.

Hyde shook his head. "No."

The Doctor sighed. "Sir…I know this is a difficult time for you-"

"My wife and baby could die! Do you really think I'm going to stay out here while your there with her?" He asked getting angry.

"Sir. I promise we will come get you as soon as we find out what's wrong." He said distancing himself from Hyde.

"Yeah…or when there's no time for me to say goodbye." He said starting to tear up.

"Sir…we need you to stay out here and fill out some paperwork…and you can call some family. I assure you we will do everything we can to protect your wife. And your child." He said honestly.

Hyde nodded his head. "Please help her…"

He nodded. "We will. Now go over to the front desk and they will direct you on what to do. I'll come out as soon as I have news ok?"

Hyde nodded. "Ok. Thanks."

Hyde watched him walk behind the double doors and went to the front desk trying to keep his composure. The woman at the front desk smiled weakly at him.

"Mr. Hyde?" She asked.

Hyde nodded. "Yeah…that's me."

"Ok. I have some paper work here for you to fill out. It's all insurance wavers and information." She said handing it to him.

Hyde nodded. "Uh…ok. But…can I call my family first?" He asked weakly.

The woman nodded. "Yes. Here. Use this phone and take your time."

Hyde smiled softly. "Thank you." He picked up the phone and dialed a number he had called more than a thousand times in his life. The only things he could hear were the ringing of the phone and his heart beat.

"Hello?" He heard on the other end.

He cleared his throat. "Red…" He chocked out.

"Steven?" He asked. "Steven is that you?"

"Red…I…Jackie's in the hospital. Something's wrong with the baby…and her. They won't let me in…I need…could you…please come down here. Please…I can't do this on my own." He said suddenly breaking down.

"Son…I'll be right there. Just hang on…Kitty and I will be right there." He assured him.

Hyde held onto the counter tightly. "Thank you."

He hung up and took the papers to fill out and took a seat near the doors where they had taken Jackie. He stared down at them and tried to focus on filling them out, but all the words seemed to jumble into what all looked like Jackie. The world was spinning fast around him and there was nothing he could do to stop it. Suddenly a hand was on his shoulder and he looked up to see Red and all his friends and family. Without even thinking he jumped up and grabbed onto Red for dear life who returned the hug. His friends seemed to be crying around him.

"It's ok…" Red said hugging Hyde back.

"They have to be ok…" He cried.

Red nodded. "They will be. Jackie's strong…she'll make it through. So will your daughter. It's going to be ok."

"This is my fault." He said pulling back from him.

Red sighed. "How do you figure that?"

Hyde started pacing. "We've been fighting…she's been under stress. I haven't been a good husband. I haven't taken care of her like I know I can because I'm to God Damn stubborn. God if she makes it through this I swear on my life I'll never let her down again. I'll be by her side no matter what…I don't care what I have to do. She just…she has to be ok. My daughter has to be ok…Jackie…there my life." He said looking up at Red again and his friends. "What do I do?"

Red looked over at Kitty who took a step towards the boy she considered to be her son and placed a motherly hand on his cheek. "Sweetie…you have to pray."

Hyde stared down at her and swallowed the lump in his throat. "Pray."

She nodded. "Yes. Pray."

Hyde nodded as his friends all surrounded him and they hugged as Kitty began to pray softly reciting the Our Father. Hyde said it mentally in his head, remembering it from the times Kitty had said it herself. And when she was done he said his own silent prayer to the man upstairs.

God…I…I know I haven't always believed in you. But right now I need to believe your there. And if you are…please help Jackie. Please help my daughter. They don't deserve this because of my own stupidity. I'll do whatever it takes to save them…please spare them. For me…I've never asked you for anything in my life…so please. Save them.

The same Doctor who had talked to Hyde before and Jackie's own Doctor walked over to them.

"Hello Hyde." Dr. Sheldon said.

"Dr. Sheldon." He said walking over to him. "What is it? What's wrong? Is she going into labor now?"

Dr. Sheldon shook his head. "No. She's not going into labor. She was experiencing early pregnancy pains due to a high level of stress and anxiety." He explained.

"Ok…so what do you do now?" He asked anxiously.

"Her blood pressure is much higher then it should be…and she is experiencing some swelling around her waist and her legs and feet. I can tell she is very tired and weak…and while she isn't due for about a month…I want her to stay off of her feet completely. She needs to eat more because she has not gained as much weight as she should have." He started to explain.

"She's…she's going to be ok though right?" Hyde asked.

Dr. Sheldon nodded. "Yes. Dr. Peters and I want to keep an eye on her tonight though so I want her to stay the night."
Hyde nodded. "And the baby?" He asked.

Dr. Sheldon took out a clipboard of some information. "I ran another ultrasound. I checked her heartbeat and her appearance from the picture and she seems fine to me. If Jackie can get her weight up a little bit more then I think the baby will be perfectly healthy."

Hyde shook his head. "I…I mean…she's really going to be ok?"

Dr. Sheldon walked closer to her. "For right now…Jackie is ok. But she is very…very weak Hyde. I want you to understand that the next month of her life and the baby's life is going to be the most crucial month of their life."

Hyde nodded. "I understand."

"I'm going to check on her tomorrow and then she should be able to go home after that. But while she is home, she had to be on. full bed rest and I want someone with her at all times. If you are at work someone here needs to be with her incase she starts experiencing pains again and she might even go into labor early." He stated honestly.

Hyde nodded. "Ok." He turned to his friends. "Will you guys help me with that?"

They all nodded their heads. "Of course." They said.

Hyde smiled at them and turned back to Dr. Sheldon and Dr. Peters. "We can do that."

Dr. Sheldon smiled. "Good."

"Um…can I go see her now?" Hyde asked anxiously.

Dr. Peters smiled. "Sure. Nurse Anna is just setting her up in her room for the night; she'll be attaching her to a heart monitor and an IV for the pain. She may be a little out of it but you can go in. One at a time…so Mr. Hyde…why don't you go first?" He said pointing to her room.

Hyde nodded. "Thanks." He turned back to his friends. "Um…I may be awhile but you can go or-"

Eric cut him off and patted his back. "We'll be right here."

Hyde nodded. "Thanks."

He walked slowly over to the door and took a deep breathe to brace himself before entering. He slowly turned the doorknob and walked in just as the Nurse was sticking Jackie with an IV. He saw her wince in pain a little since she hated needles. The woman smiled at her and pulled the blankets around her.

"You're all set Mrs. Hyde. If you need anything just press that red button on your left." She pointed to it.

Jackie smiled softly. "Thank you."

She smiled and turned to see Hyde. "Well…seems you have a visitor. I'll just leave you two alone."

She smiled and patted Hyde on the shoulder and he smiled back. Jackie looked at him, not smiling but not frowning either Hyde took a deep breath and then stepped towards her, kneeling down beside her bed, resting his head in her lap.

"Steven…" She whispered.

Hyde started to cry into her. "I'm so sorry…" He mumbled.

Jackie teared up too and scratched his scalp gently. "It's ok Steven…its ok."

Hyde looked up at her and took her hands in his, kissing them both gently. "It's not…it's not Jackie…I was way out of line. Tonight…and these past couple of weeks. I should have trusted you…you love me."

Jackie smiled and tearfully stroked his face. "I do love you."

"You wouldn't hurt me." He said kissing her hands again.

Jackie nodded. "No. I wouldn't."

"I'm so sorry." He leaned forward and kissed her stomach. "I put you and our daughter into jeopardy."

Jackie pulled his face up to hers again. "We are fine."

Hyde shook his head. "Yes you are…but…if something had-"

Jackie put her fingers to his lips and hushed him. "No…Steven we're fine."

He sighed and rested his head against her stomach again and felt his daughter kick at Jackie's stomach gently. "I love you both."

Jackie felt the tears coming again and she tried to suppress them. "Steven…look at me."

Hyde looked up at her with his head still near her stomach. "I love you. And I love our daughter. I know we've been fighting…a lot. And I hated that time…and I hated that you didn't trust me…but right now…I just need you by my side."

"I am." He assured her.

She smiled and wrapped her fingers in his curls. "I know that…"

Hyde kissed her stomach again. "I'll never do that again…I don't know what got into me. I just…I just go scared."

Jackie frowned. "Scared of what?"

Hyde sighed. "Jackie…no matter how far we come in our relationship I always think you deserve better."

Jackie stiffened. "Steven I don-"

He stopped her. "No…just let me say this. I'll loose my nerve if I don't…and maybe if I do say it I'll be able to get passed it." He paused to see if she would interrupt again but she just stared at him expectantly. "When I first met you…I thought you were beautiful. You were rich and perfect…you had everything. Or so I thought…and I just figured you would end up with some rich stock broker would give you the biggest, most extravagant, perfect house. He would shower you with money and expensive gifts and provide perfectly for you and your kids. No matter how much I liked you…I figured you would never want or need a guy like me. I can't provide for you that way no matter how badly I want to…and when you did choose me…I wanted to never let you go. But that thought was always in the back of my mind that you would find a better man…that perfect guy and move on to him. That scares me Jackie…it terrifies me. And that's why I stayed with Sam…that way you would find that guy. But…I realized I loved you to much to let it happen…so got you back. But it doesn't mean I don't think that you could do better."

Jackie let her tears fall but wiped them away quickly before taking a deep, hard breath and held his face in her hands. "You are my perfect guy."

Hyde smiled and felt the emotions, pain and fear wash through him. "I know that now…"

Jackie smiled and pulled him to her, holding onto him tightly. "I'll never leave you Steven…promise me…you'll never leave me again either."

Hyde buried his face in her neck. "Never. Ever. Again."

Jackie smiled and nodded her head kissing the side of her husbands face. "I know you won't…you love me." She whispered again.

He pulled away from her and held her face in his hands. "Jackie Beulah Burkhart Hyde…I love you more than anything in this world."

Jackie smiled and kissed him gently. "Good to know."

He laughed and pulled her back in for a hug not caring that he was crying. "I'm so happy you are ok…I would have never forgiven myself."

Jackie smiled. "So…we're good then? No more of this no talking, or kissing…god even no sex thing?"

Hyde smiled and laughed. "We are way past that. I never…ever want that again."

Jackie laughed. "Me either."

He put his hands on her stomach and rubbed it gently. "I can feel her kicking."

Jackie nodded. "She does that a lot. I can tell she's going to be feisty."

He smirked. "Yep. She's definitely you're daughter. She kicks just like you. From the knees down I'm like a freakin POW."

Jackie laughed. "I'm a tough chick."

Hyde smiled and nodded his head. "Sure are." He felt their daughter kick some more. "Does it hurt?"

Jackie shrugged. "Sometimes…if she kicks at my bladder or kidneys. Other then that…it just kind of feels weird."

Hyde nodded and leaned down to her stomach and whispered to it. "Hey kid…give your Mom a break. Wait till you get out of the womb before you drive us both completely insane."

Jackie laughed. "Dr. Sheldon said she is ok right?"

Hyde nodded. "Yeah. He said she is ok. But he said you need to eat more because you are really weak."

Jackie nodded. "I figured as much. I haven't eaten much lately…"

Hyde nodded and stroked her cheeks. "Well that's going to change soon."

Jackie cocked an eyebrow at him. "Really?"

He smiled. "Yep." He shifted on the bed to become more comfortable and be closer to her. "You are from now on put on complete bed rest and if you need to go somewhere you ask me and I carry you. And I will cook everything and anything you want."

Jackie smiled. "I think I could get used to this."

He smiled. "Well we need to get you and our little girl healthier ok?"

Jackie nodded. "Ok."

Hyde leaned in to kiss her when there was a knock on the door, he could see the whole gang behind Dr. Sheldon and he laughed.

"Hey Dr. Sheldon." Jackie said.

"I know I said one at a time…but they won't stop nagging me. They want to see Jackie. Can they come in now?" He asked anxiously.

Hyde laughed and looked back at Jackie. "You ready?"

Jackie nodded. "Send them in."

He sighed with relief. "Thank you."

The gang rushed to Jackie's bed side and started asking a million questions. "Are you ok?" "Are you in pain?" "Can we get you anything?" "Should we kick Hyde's ass?"

Jackie laughed. "I'm fine…the baby and I are fine." She assured them.

Donna who was holding Lucas chimed in. "Can I still kick Hyde's ass?"

Jackie laughed. "No Donna. Maybe later." She winked.

Hyde groaned. "Gee…thanks babe."

Jackie smiled and rubbed his cheek. "Actually…I am kinda hungry. Can I get some food…other then the crap they have here?"

Kitty laughed with her signature laugh. "I knew you would say that! Come on gang! Help me carry in the food from the car!"

Red looked at her. "When the hell did you fill the car with food?"

Kitty smiled. "We women are fast little devils. I knew what my Jackie would need so I had it ready…God." She laughed and

winked at Jackie. "Men." She looked back at everyone. "Ok. Let's go!"

They all started to walk towards the door, Hyde was going to stay behind when he grabbed Eric's arm. "Hey man…"

Eric nodded. "Hey. I'm glad everything's ok."

Hyde nodded. "Yeah me too man…me too…"

Eric smiled. "What's up?"

"Could you do me a favor?" He asked.

Eric nodded. "Of course man. What is it?"

"Could you call Jackie's friend Kyle and ask him to come down…I'm sure Jackie would love to see him and I want to apologize." He said.

Eric nodded sure. "I'll look him up. What's his name?"

"Kyle Landers." He said.

Eric nodded. "Sure. I'll go do that now. Why don't you stay here with Jackie?"

Hyde nodded and patted Eric's shoulder. "Thanks man."

He walked back over to Jackie and sat with her. "Hey you."

Jackie smiled and kissed him. "Hey. What was that about?"

"Nothing." He kissed her again and placed his hand on her stomach. "Do you need anything else?"

She sighed and snuggled into her husband. "Just you."

He smiled and wrapped his arm around her. "You have me babe. All of me."


The gang came back up and spread out the food around the room all eating together and laughing. Kitty kept piling Jackie's plate with food to make sure she ate as much as she possibly could. There was a knock on the door and Dr. Sheldon walked in and smiled at Hyde.

"Hi. There's another visitor here to see Jackie…could you come identify him for us Mr. Hyde?" He asked.

Hyde nodded and looked back at Eric who got the hint and smiled signifying that when Hyde came back Eric would get everyone to leave. Hyde walked out into the hallway and spotted Kyle who was nervously leaning up against the wall. He saw Hyde and walked over to him.

"Hey…" He said.

Hyde hung his head in shame. "Hey…"

"Is Jackie ok? Your friend Eric didn't say much…" He said nervously.

Hyde nodded. "Yeah. She's ok…her and the baby are fine. The Doctors said she was a little weak, she needs to eat more to regain her strength and all."

Kyle nodded. "Good. Good…everything will be fine."

Hyde nodded. "Yep." He looked down and sighed. "Look…Kyle I'm so sorry." He said pointing at Kyle's black eye. "I overreacted. I'm so…sorry."

Kyle nodded. "Hey…if I saw my boyfriend getting a massage from another man as fine as me I would react the same way."

Hyde laughed. "Yeah…it freaked me out."

Kyle nodded. "I understand. It's ok…I forgive you."

Hyde nodded. "Thank you. I just…I want you to know I'm not generally a violent person. I would never hurt Jackie."

Kyle nodded. "I know."

Hyde sighed. "Good…I wanted you to come down here so I could apologize to you and I'm sure Jackie would love to see you.You've been a great friend to her…and I appreciate that…contrary to how I may have acted before."

Kyle smiled. "She's been a great friend to me too…I don't know many people out here and she's been the only one who's supported me."

Hyde smiled. "She's good at that…"

Kyle nodded. "Yeah…you're a lucky man." He paused. "So…you don't care that I'm gay right?" He asked nervously.

Hyde smiled. "Not at all. It's cool."

Kyle sighed with relief. "Good. It's hard to find people who do accept it."

Hyde smiled and moved away to let him walk towards Jackie's room. "Well around me and my gang…we'll accept anyone."

Kyle nodded. "Cool. Can we go see Jackie now?"

"Yeah. Let's go." He said leading the way.

Hyde peeked his head in the door and nodded at Eric who rounded up his friends. "Hey guys…why don't we give Hyde and Jackie…and Kyle sometime alone for a minute."

Jackie's eyes widened with surprise. "Kyle?"

"Uh oh…" Fez said. "Come on Kelso…we better get out of here."

Kelso sighed. "Why? I just stared eating my Cheetos."

Fez sighed. "Come on my beautiful friend…we must go before you're face gets ruined by a crazy punch by Hyde."

Kelso grabbed his bag of chips. "That's true…that's my money maker."

Fez smiled. "Yep. Let's go."

The gang slowly started to assemble out of the room and let Hyde, Jackie and Kyle all stare at each other. Jackie shifted nervously holding her baby bump and Hyde walked over to Jackie, sitting beside her.

"Hi Kyle." Jackie said softly.

Kyle smiled and walked over to the opposite side of Hyde. "Hey Jackie…how are you feeling?"

She smiled. "I'm fine now. Thank you."

He smiled and patted her belly. "Good to hear."

Jackie smiled and looked back at Hyde. "Steven…?"

Hyde smiled. "I had Eric call him to come down here to see you…and so I could apologize to him."

Jackie smiled. "Oh Steven…" She said placing a hand on her heart.

He shrugged. "I was wrong…and he's been a good friend of you so I wanted to set things right."

Jackie smiled and kissed him and turned to Kyle. "You have been a good friend."

Kyle shrugged. "Right back at'cha."

She smiled. "So…everything's good with all of us now?"

Hyde and Kyle smiled at each other. "Yes."

She smiled. "Good. Enough drama…pass the Cheetos."

Hyde and Kyle smiled at her and started to laugh.

Jackie stared at them. "What? Me and my baby are hungry." She said starting to munch happily as her husband and one of her new best friends finally put all the bitterness in the past.

Jackie and the baby were fine. Hyde and Jackie were fine. Everything was going back to normal. Now all they had to do was get Jackie's strength up and wait for the birth of their baby girl.
