Now was it time. Hyde, Laurie, and Anna Mae -or Jackie for him- were sitting around the table in the apartment, now was it time. Now was it time for Anna Mae, Jackie, the tiger girl, the tigress, the girl with a tiger tattoo to tell everything.

It was a story that Laurie already knew but her friend needed her to get through with it. It wasn't that it was a painful story, no, but while telling it she knew she would be ashamed, feel guilty and mostly vulnerable.

Hyde's eyes were fixed on her, he was eager to know, she looked at him before sighing and taking of her sunglasses.

There it was, her full face, expose, it was the first time Hyde saw her without her glasses for real. It was the weirdest thing seeing her face on that tattoo body. It still seemed like it wasn't real, that it was all a dream or a nightmare, but it was right in front of him the girl he once thought was the most unbearable thing in this world was the one that he had been admiring the most this past few month.

She took a deep breath before saying "So… where do I start?" she did her best to sound strong but he could hear a glimpse of her insecurity in her voice.

Hyde looked at Laurie, she shrugged, so he decided to ask her from when he had last heard of her "How about from when you broke up with Fez."

"Ok… hum…That day I was" she started awkwardly "I was…" she paused again Oh fuck it! "I was fucking piss of, I had just got dumped for some bitch or whatever!" She slammed her hand on the table "I went to a bar and I drunk until it was enough for me to make up in a stranger bed in this town. And guess what when I woke up, for the first time in many, many years I felt alive!"

Hyde looked at her questioningly, but she didn't react. "And?" he asked.

"And I didn't want to go back to Chicago to be lectured and 'cheered up' by everyone so I went back to a bar. Spend my all day there. Wake with a stranger again. I did that a few times until I woke up and there were a familiar blond face." She said turning to Laurie with a smile. "We didn't have time for a snivelling reunion 'cause two girlfriend showed up. But after a long run we bought each other coffee and talked." She had a pause "At that time I was a bit lost and Laurie advised me into doing whatever I wanted, something I had rarely done. I did it. And it was heaven, still is." She had a smile while telling this sentence. "Anyway what I did was get drunk, beat and sleep around."

Hyde was perplex he never would have thought that it was what Jackie actually wanted. "How-?"

He was answered before he could asked the question. "Because all my life I had been the way my parents wanted me to be and it was hard getting rid of it."

"We are raised with different manners and morals that are unconsciously in our brain and that we can't pass through easily." Laurie explained which remind Hyde of his own prejudges about woman.

"I understand why you've change your life style but why change your name?"

"Because Jackie Burkhart is a little wiping girl that acts like her mom and doesn't know anything about anything! She's not me and I don't wanna be her!"

Hyde looked at her stunned he wasn't even sure he had understood what she was saying.

"Look," she said "the guy you've been this past few years, the one that did his job right and was a good tool of the society, do you want to think of yourself as that guy?"

No he didn't but he wouldn't simply erase that part of his life it was here it was all and it wasn't the end of the world.

"To me it's like that with all my life until four years ago, I've only started being myself four years ago. Why would I want to think of a time when I was nothing more than a puppet?!"

So to her all the things that had happen to them before didn't matter, not their friends, not Donna, not the Formans, not her parents –well this one he could actually understand-, not all the fun adventures they had, not what had happen between them.

"Do you really regret everything from those years?" He asked looking right into her eyes.

He saw what looked like a trace of guilt and she said "Yes" Now be heartbroken and leave.

Hyde sighed, that was it, none of the past mattered, he couldn't figure out if he was sad or happy about that. "You never thought of coming back?"`

"Not after listening to Marvin Gaye."

That he didn't need any explanations to understand, he had already heard them.

The puzzle was starting to answer itself in his head. She had a massive break down after being dumped by man, with Laurie and Marvin Gaye influence she started thinking about her life and realized that it wasn't the way she really wanted it to be. She made change but the fact that she had wasted all her life being something that now probably disgusts her had made her choose to change her name. It was a bit over-reacting and for the first time he recognize some of Jackie's old way of acting in her.

AN/ So what do you think? Do you understand Jackie? Do you think it's stupid? Please review and tell me.
