PART FOUR: By Randa
Jackie: Michael! (she starts to scoot away from Hyde, only to have
him catch
her by the wrists and hold her in place).
Hyde: What the hell is your problem, Kelso?
Kelso: You... You... You stole my girl!
Fez: (nudges him) She is not your girl. She broke up with you.
Kelso: (crestfallen) We're just going through a hard time...
Jackie: Michael. I don't like you. I DESPISE you. Get out!
Fez: Don't you want to know about the way out?
Jackie: Umm... Could you come back in an hour?
Fez: No.
Hyde: (sighs in frustration) What is the way out?
Kelso: Okay. We are all going to run at the door and crash into it
REALLY
hard! (looks pleased with himself) It was my idea.
Jackie: You moron! We already tried that. It hurt Steven's
shoulder...
(She starts to unconciously stroke Hyde's still bare shoulder.)
Kelso: Oh yeah...
Fez: Idiot! I am going to sleep now. (He starts over to where Jackie
and
Hyde are sitting and flops down on the couch, using Jackie's lap as a
pillow.) Oh... Jackie, you are so soft.
Hyde: I'm gonna close my eyes and count to ten, and you'd better be
gone by
the time I open them.
Fez: (Starts to reluctantly climb up)
Jackie: ("helps" him by shoving him off the couch. Hard.)
Fez: Ay! My head...
Hyde: four...
Kelso: (grabs Fez my the shirt-back and starts dragging him out of
the room,
slamming the door just as Hyde reaches "one".
Hyde: (shaking his head in wonder) I think he gets dumber every day.
Jackie: Yeah. I feel kinda responsible, though... I mean, he wasn't
NEARLY
this bad when we were dating. (at Hyde's off look) Was he?
Hyde: Actually, yeah.
Jackie: But he never---
Hyde: Yes he did.
Jackie: Oh. (looks thoughtful)
Hyde: Yeah. Oh. (He starts to pull her towards him.)
Jackie: (goes into his arms willingly, turning her face up to meet
his kiss.)
Kelso: This sucks!
Fez: Yes. My head hurts.
Kelso: I mean, he's in there making out with MY girlfriend! MINE! Who
the
hell does he think he is?
Fez: Jackie is not your girlfriend. She broke up with your sorry ass
when
you cheated on her with Laurie.
Kelso: Well, I can't just sit here in the dark anymore. I'm getting
us out
of here.
Fez: Yes. Get us out now. (mutters) Idiot.
Kelso: (starts walking towards the door) Prepare to be smashed. (He
takes a
running leap at the door, crashing into it with enough force to
rattle the
walls. he falls to the floor with a sickening "thunk" and screams
in
pain.
The scream reverbrates through the old house.)
Jackie: (pulls away from Hyde, breathing heavily.) What was that??
Hyde: (equally breathless) I don't know. It sounded like a woman
screaming.
Jackie: I don't like it here. I'm scared...
Hyde: (Pulls her into his arms and starts to stroke her hair as she
trembles) It's okay. I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you.
Jackie: Do you promise?
Hyde: (dropping a kiss on her forehead) Yeah. I promise.
Jackie: (snuggles into his chest) Well... I guess things could get
worse.
(Just as she says this, the fire goes out.)
Hyde: (raising a brow) you were saying?
