The Reason Songfic
Okay guys. This is now my second songfic. The first one was The Scientist by Coldplay which I got NO reviews for. I am trying really hard to improve my writing so please give this one a chance. It's by Hoobastank called "The Reason". Please listen to it while reading or listen to it after but it's based on this song. This fic is set in the beginning of the sixth season, when Jackie comes back.
****I'm not a perfect person****
"Jackie... I'm so sorry. I don't think you understand just how sorry I truly am." Hyde's voice was cracking and he still couldn't believe what he had done with that nurse. Now Jackie had finally decided to give him another chance and when she showed up from the summer he was with another girl.
"Whatever Steven. I'm sick and tired of giving you chances." Jackie stormed out of the basement. Hyde had been with Raquel for two weeks now and she was great. They had a lot in common and she didn't want a serious relationship either. He knew that it would be hard getting over Jackie especially because she would have guys drooling over her all the time, he needed to pretend to get over her. Raquel was his scapegoat. This way, Jackie didn't realize just how much he needed her. But he did need her...
*****As many things I wish I didn't do*****
The next day, Raquel and Hyde were sitting at a table in the hub. Hyde's stomach dropped when he saw Jackie enter with some random guy. It cut him like a thousand knives stabbing him all over. He now realized just how much he needed her and how much she needed him. She causally walked over.
"Are you using that ketchup?" She asked Raquel. Poor Raquel... she didn't know that Jackie and Hyde used to date.
"No. Here you go." Raquel handed her the ketchup and she went off. Hyde got up and grabbed Jackie's arm.
"Jackie, you need to listen to me. I am sorry for cheating on you with that nurse and I'm sorry that I didn't wait for you but can't we get over this? This is ridiculous, I mean it happened before the summer and now the summer's over."
"Steven, I can't just get over it. I'm sorry that I can't forgive you after you have messed up too many times. Michael messed up too and now you, the only person I wanted to trust in the whole world broke not only my heart but my trust too!"
"Jackie!" Hyde yelled after her. She and her "random guy" had already left. He sat back down and Raquel looked upset with him.
****But I continue learning*****
"What was that?" She asked.
"That was Jackie. My ex girlfriend."
"She was your ex?"
"Yeah."
"Oh."
"What?"
"Nothing."
"Just tell me."
"She just doesn't seem like your type. She's so preppy and your against all that... it's just an odd coupling." Raquel left and Hyde thought about that for a second. Many people had thought it was "strange" and "unnatural" but they didn't care. Why did Hyde care so much now?
****I never meant to do those things to you****
"Hyde man, where are you going?" Eric asked. Hyde had a suitcase in his hand and was almost out the door before Eric caught him leaving the basement.
"I have to get out of here. This thing with Jackie and I is just... I don't know. I can't deal with it anymore. I never meant to do those things to her."
"Is she talking to you?"
"Does yelling and walking away count?"
"No."
"Damn." Hyde blurted out. Eric walked out of his way.
"I'm going to miss you man. You'll come back right?"
"Yeah. I promise." Hyde then left and Eric knew he was running away from his problems, he always did that. Hyde never faced anyway, except for when he cheated on Jackie. He faced it like a man and told her straight out. It cost him the one thing he loved more then Led Zepplin, it cost him the love of his life.
****And so I have to say before I go****
"Jackie!" Hyde yelled out. He was standing on Donna's front porch. He saw her brushing her hair through the window.
"What?" Donna called out.
"Is your name Jackie?" Hyde snapped. Donna pushed Jackie up to the window.
"What do you want?" Jackie asked.
"I'm sorry. I don't know how many times I have to say it."
"Well... your with another girl so how sorry can you be?"
"I love you Jackie." Jackie snorted. "I do. I've said it twice which is amazing for a guy like me."
"A guy like you?"
"Yes. Jackie I grew up-"
"Poor?"
"Yes. I grew up poor and without love. You are the first person to make me realize that I am capable of giving love and being loved."
"Well that's touching Steven." Jackie went to close the door but stopped when she saw Hyde cry. One sincere tear fell down his cheek. She looked at him shocked and didn't know what to say.
Okay. This is only one verse of the song... but it's a great song and so I think you should all listen to it. I will continue this but what do you think so far? I want to know your opinion.
