A/N-Ok...so this is set like three months in the future. So yeah...read and enjoy and don't forget to Review after you Read. Oh and this is not the end of the story... :)


Steven Hyde was man of very few words. Most people knew him as the rebellious, Zen master, orphan of Point Place. The Foreman's had taken him in when he was in High School, and although he would never admit it, he loved them. He would do anything for them and his friends. And most importantly, the petite brunette that had stolen his heart many years before. But even though Hyde did have feelings and cared about people, it was true that he never did things he didn't want to do. He never let anyone tell him what to do or tell him what was right and wrong. He made his own choices and many people who had known him years before would have been shocked to know that he had married the petite brunette, top cheerleader from Point Place High. They would also have been surprised if they had seen him signing papers to buy a very large house in the middle of Point Place. When he passed the papers to the real-estate man, they would have been more surprised to see the enormous smile upon his face.

"Well Mr. Hyde…welcome home. I hope you and your wife are very happy here, for many years."

"Thank you Mr. Oliver. I'm sure we will."

Mr. Oliver handed Hyde the keys to the house and walked out of the apartment. Hyde walked around and smiled to himself getting excited about telling his wife that he had bought a house for them. For three months they had been living in the apartment saving money for a house. But now Hyde had a rather large surprise for his wife and he was sure she was going to love it.

Many people who knew Jackie Burkhart back in High School would never have thought that she would marry the burnout Steven Hyde. They pictured her marrying someone like Michael Kelso…a pretty boy. Someone who would use their looks to cruise through life on his good looks to provide for his trophy wife. But Jackie Burkhart had changed…she had grown up into a woman who took care of her self and who did not rely on others to provide for her. She had a steady job as the manager of a boutique near Groove's the record store owned by her husband. She worked hard, something that many people would have been shocked to see coming from a girl like her. They also would have been shocked if the had seen her sitting on the edge of her tub in her small apartment in Point Place staring at the Pregnancy Test on the bathroom sink. They would have been shocked to see her nervously tapping her foot waiting to see if she was going to be a mother. When the timer went off in the kitchen Jackie stood up, walked to the sink and looked down. Two lines. There were two lines. Jackie Burkhart was pregnant with Steven Hyde's baby.

"Oh my god…"

Jackie covered her mouth with her hand and sat back down putting her hand over her forehead taking a deep breathe.

"I'm going to be a mother…"

She smiled slightly and wiped her happy tears away and then realized the hard part was still to come. She had to tell Hyde that she was pregnant. How would he react? Would he be happy? Would he be angry? Or would he completely freak out due to nerves. She stood up, and cleaned up a bit and waited…she waited for Hyde to come home so she could tell him her news.

Hyde got in the Camino and drove over to the Foreman's with a giddy smile on his face. He parked his car in the driveway and walked into the kitchen and kissed the top of Kitty's head.

"Hey Mrs. Foreman."

"Steven…I've been thinking a lot about this Mrs. Foreman thing. It makes me feel rather old. So…I was thinking you could call me
Mom…ya know only if you want to."

"Well…Ok Mom."

She smiled and kissed his cheek. "Good boy. Now…what's up?"

"Well I wanted to give you and Red something."

"Oh. Really? Well Red is in the living room let's go see him."

Kitty and Hyde walked into the living room where Red was sitting in his usual chair reading the paper.

"Red…honey…Steven is here to talk to us."

"Did Jackie kick you out of the house already?"

Hyde chuckled slightly. "Uh no…but this is about a house. Kind of…"

"Ok then. How may I help you Steven?"

"It's just…I bought a house today for Jackie and me."

"Oh well that is wonderful Steven!" Kitty said kissing his cheek. "Where's Jackie? Why isn't she here to tell us the good news too?"

"Oh she doesn't know yet. It's sort of a surprise for her."

"Well that is very grown up of you Steven." Red said getting up to shake his hand. "Congratulations. You got married and bought a house all in three months. That shows a lot of maturity."

"Thanks Red…"

"Sweetie…is there something else you came here to talk to us about? You seem a little nervous." Kitty said putting a hand on Hyde's arm.

"Well I uh…I sort of overheard you two talking about your money problems the other day when Jackie and I were over for dinner."

"Steven…" Red said.

"And I just…I know that you are trying to officially pay of your mortgage…and well…I have a lot of money saved up. And money that WB gave me…and I went to the bank today after I bought the house and I paid off your mortgage."

Red and Kitty stared at Hyde unsure of what to say. Hyde couldn't tell if they were angry or happy or just to touched to speak.

"Steven…" Red began. "I…well…thank you. But…why would you do that?"

"Because you guys took me in and gave me a home to live in when I didn't have one. And I want to assure that you have a place here always, near Jackie and I and the rest of the gang. I don't want to have to watch you guys pack up and leave me. You guys are like parents to me and this was the only way I could think of to repay you."

"Oh Steven…that is just the sweetest-" Kitty couldn't even finish her sentence she launched herself into Hyde's arms and cried.

"Thank you Steven…" Red said again. "I just…thank you…."

"Anytime Red…I would do anything for you guys."

Kitty finally let go of Hyde and watched as two of the most important men in her life hugged each other.

"Well…I uh…I should go to the apartment and tell Jackie the good news about the house. I guess we'll see you later?"

"Yes. You two should come over for dinner tomorrow! I need to cook you something to thank you!" Kitty said clapping her hands together.

"Ok…we will. Bye."

Hyde walked out the front door and made his way to the Camino leaving Kitty and Red in the living room still stunned by what had just happened.

"Oh Red…our boy has grown up."

"Yeah Kitty…he sure has. He's grown up into a great man."

"We did good."

"Yeah we sure did."

He smiled at his wife and kissed her pasionatley.

Meanwhile Jackie was sitting on the couch and she kept looking over at the door anxiously waiting for Hyde to walk in. When he finally did he had a brilliant smile on his face. He took off his coat and hung it up and walked over to Jackie and kissed her.

"Hey there beautiful."

"Hey…"

"Hey so you know how I told you that the Foreman's were having money problems?"

"Um…yes…"

"I paid off their mortgage today."

Jackie seemed taken aback. She thought that they had been saving up money to buy a house. And now with the baby on the way she knew that they needed all the money the could save up. "Oh…well…wow…baby that's great but I mean…I thought were saving up our money?"

"Well we were. And we did. And I paid off their mortgage and I bought us a new house." He said with a sweet smile. He watched Jackie's face turn from confusion to surprise to excitement in just seconds.

"You bought a house!?"

"Yep. I bought a house." He said with a sly smirk.

"Oh my god…Steven…when? Where? How?"

"Ok there baby…slow down one question at a time. Ok so…when?" She nodded. "This afternoon. Where?" She nodded again.

"That big white house on Elm Street. The one we always pass to go to the Foreman's from here."

"The one with the white picket fence?"

"Yep that's the one."

"Oh my god…"

"Yep…and I believe the last question was how?" She nodded again. "I have been saving money for awhile now and WB helped me out a bit. So…we can move in as soon as possible. Whenever were ready."

"Oh my…god…Steven…this is…this is big!"

"I know…I just figured you know we've been married for three months now and I figured it was time for us to move into a house. Ya know time to really start our lives together."

"Oh Steven…this is just…"

With all the excitement of Steven buying a house for them she completely forgot about her own news. She smiled and kissed Steven once more before putting her hand on her stomach realizing it was now or never. Hyde noticed the strange look on her face and watched as she placed a hand over her stomach.

"Hey…are you feeling ok?"

"What? Oh yes…I just…um…this is a lot to take in."

"Yeah I guess it is." He said with a smile. "But I mean…your happy right?"

"What baby of course I'm happy…it's just…I have some news to…some very big news."

"Really? Ok…well what's up?"

"Ok…um…huh…wow I don't know what to say."

"Jackie Burkhart at a loss for words? Well that's a first." He said trying to make her laugh. He was successful and he placed a hand on her arm rubbing it gently to soothe her and make her relax a bit. "Hey Jacks…whatever it is…you can tell me. You're my wife now ya know? We do these things together."

She smiled at him and took a deep breathe. "Yeah I know…um…ok…so…here goes nothing. I uh…I'm pregnant."

At first Hyde just stood staring at her unsure of what to say and for a moment Jackie thought that she saw complete panic in his eyes. She got nervous and thought that maybe this wasn't going to go as well as she had hoped.

"Look Steven I know this is big…and I know this is scary. Believe me when I saw the test was positive I was freaked too…but I think that-"

She couldn't finish her sentence because Hyde had grabbed her face and pulled her in for the most passionate kiss he had ever given her. He pulled away and she saw tears in his eyes.

"I'm going to be a father?"

She nodded and her own tears started. "Yeah….yeah Steven you're going to be a father. And I'm going to be a mother…were having a baby."

"Oh my god…oh Jackie…this is just…holy crap. I mean that in the best way possible of course…"

She laughed and leaned up to kiss him. "So you're happy?"

"Oh Jackie I've never been happier in my life."

"Oh God…I thought that you were going to be mad…or angry or…"

"Jackie I would never be angry. I mean this is great news. I love you and I would love to have children with you."

"I know…I do…its just…we hadn't really planned on having kids so soon. We said we would wait until we were more financially stable and were married for at least a year or something. It's always been three months and I just…I…oh my god…were going to have a baby…"

"I know!"

"Oh my god…I mean…this is great! But I mean…do we know how to be parents?"

He smiled at her concern and kissed her sweetly. "No…not really…but were going to learn together."

"Were having a baby!"

Hyde smiled and picked up Jackie and spun her around. She wrapped her legs around his waist and he kissed her passionately.

"You have just made me the happiest man in the world did you know that?"

"Yeah well you made me the happiest woman alive."

"So uh…do you think it happened in Paris?"

"It might have…I don't know how pregnant I am."

"Well we did have a very active honeymoon…" He said with a smirk.

"True…but every night since then has been active too."

"We'll go to the doctors tomorrow to get you all checked out."

"Sounds good daddy to be."

He smiled and kissed her. "Oh Mrs. Foreman is going to be so excited."

She laughed. "Yeah she will be…what do you think Red will say?"

"He'll say oh more kids to feed…but he'll be happy for us."

"And what about the gang?"

"They'll be happy too."

"Wow…"

"What?"

"It's just this was a very eventful day…you buy a house and we find out were having a kid. Were growing up."

"Yeah we are…did you ever think back in High School it would end up like this?"

"I hoped it would…but I never thought I would get this lucky."

He smiled and kissed her. "Me either babe…me either."

He kissed his wife again and brought her to their bedroom to celebrate their new home and new baby. Yes…many people thought they knew the real Jackie Burkhart and Steven Hyde…but if they had seen them now…they wouldn't have believed what they saw. Two people who were in love, and were about to have a baby. Yes…they were certainly growing up.
