Chapter Eleven: Our Night's Out
Jackie was at Donna's getting ready for her hen night. Donna had arranged for some of her fellow cheerleaders out to celebrate Jackie's last few night's of freedom. The plan was to dress up as sexy as possible and head out to some of Kenosha's hippest clubs. She sat in front of the bathroom applying her makeup. Jackie looked gorgeous she wore a killer outfit. It was a black strappy dress that showed off all the right curves. It dipped in the front slightly and showed off some skin, it was just above the knee. Jackie had her hair piled on the top of head and had a few strands loose around her face. Even though this was her hen night she didn't really want to go. She sometimes thought of a person she knows she shouldn't, she looked at the mirror and decided she couldn't argue with perfection. She may have looked it but she didn't feel it.
She spoke to Kelso and heard about the stag night at the strip club, she had warned him not to do anything or he'd wake up with his best friend missing. Donna was worried about Eric and told him if anything happens she'd snap him like a twig. Jackie didn't ask if Steven was going but Donna figured she wanted to know. Even though they weren't together and he had been very clear on that, she still worried about him and felt a pang of jealousy thinking of him being all over those skanky strippers.
Donna walked dressed in a forest green dress. It was quite long but dipped pretty low in front. Donna even looked as great as Jackie did. Donna moved towards Jackie and gave her a drink it was a shot of tequila. Jackie looked up.
"What's this?" She asked.
"Just to get you started, we are gonna have so much fun tonight. Yeah!" Donna shouted.
Jackie looked at the drink and knocked it back. Donna looked at her in shock.
"I guess I really did need it." She said.
"Well be better go I told the rest that we'll meet them there. You got everything?" Donna asked.
Jackie grabbed her purse and coat. She pulled her coat on. Oh my god I'm really gonna get married. This is happening. Well I'm gonna have so much fun tonight! Jackie thought.
"Yep, got everything I need let's go have fun!" Jackie replied.
With that both Donna and Jackie walked out of Donna's bedroom and headed towards the club De-barge.
Kelso walked into the basement ready to get Fez, Eric and Hyde. He sat down on the couch and waited for Hyde to come out of his room. Hyde emerged and was startled to find Kelso already there. Funny thing is when he heard the back door open and heard someone walk into the basement he hoped it would be Jackie. For the whole month he'd had been fine and had tried not to think about her and it walked for a while. He kept busy but now thoughts of the way Jackie smiled, or laughed or the way she'd crinkle her nose when she saw something she didn't like clouded his thoughts. For the past few weeks every time he saw Jackie he just wanted to tell her everything but stopped himself it was at times like these he wondered why. On the couch sat Jackie's future husband who will ultimately make her miserable. But when he looks at himself he realises he already had.
Hyde pushed all the self-loathing feeling's he had and pushed them aside he was going to have fun tonight. Hyde man take a look at your self. I mean my self. I'm acting like a pussy or worse Forman. We're going to a strip club so I'll enjoy the beer and naked chicks and enjoy the show. After Hyde gave himself a little pep talk he sat down in his chair.
"Hyde man where's Eric and Fez?" Kelso asked.
"Well Forman's upstairs trying to convince mommy he's going to a church outing and Fez is still deciding on what to wear." Hyde said. He took his glasses out of his pocket and put them on.
Kelso leaned forward and took a sip of his coke.
"Look Hyde I know you don't want me to marry Jackie cos you think she's the devil and all but it would really mean a lot to me if you gave me your blessing. I know you hate her but I love her. Despite the shit I've put her through."
Hyde didn't know what to say. He didn't even realise Kelso had even picked up on the fact that he didn't want the wedding to go ahead.
"Look Kelso......." Hyde started but he was interrupted by Eric coming down the stairs.
"Hey what you doing down here?" Eric asked.
"Nothing man, just waiting for you so we can see all the naked chicks." Hyde answered.
"Anyway where's Fez?"
"Yeah he had an accident and will be round in an hour." Eric said he sat down on the couch.
"So what happened?" Kelso asked.
"Well his host parents caught him listening to Alice copper but he was in his boxers and so he's host parents are now teaching him about the lord." Eric explained.
Hyde shook his head. "Poor Fez!"
The music was blaring when Jackie and Donna entered De-barge. The atmosphere was like something you'd expect in studio 54. Donna looked around the tables until she saw two blondes and a brunette girl. She called out to Jackie and they weaved through to dancing people to get to the table on the other side of the room. They walked up to Stacey, Jenna and Camille. They all looked beautiful and Donna looked at them. She knew Eric would love them.
"Wow Jackie you look amazing, and Donna who knew you cleaned up so well!" Jenna said while smiling. Donna didn't know whether to take it as an insult or compliment but returned it with a thank you. Donna sat down by the table next to Stacey while Jackie sat next to Jenna.
"So the big day is only two days away. Oh I wish I was getting married. Jackie are you excited?" Camille said while drifting off into a daydream of her own wedding.
Jackie just said that she felt butterflies. She got up and went to get the drinks. Donna got up and followed her to the bar.
"Five beers please." She said to the barman.
Donna tapped Jackie on the shoulder.
"Jackie are you o.k. You don't seem like you cheery self." Donna said concerned for her friend.
"Donna I'm fine. Really." She took the five bottles of beer and struggled with them. Donna took two bottles and walked back to the table where the other three girls were waiting patiently.
"Here we go five bottles of beer. Now as the maid of honour I would like to make toast to Jackie. My best friend who clearly is crazy to marry Kelso but I wish her the best of luck and may we party tonight like crazy." Jackie had a touched look on her face and put her am around Donna. All five girls put their bottles of beer in the air and toasted.
Kelso was on the stage of the strip club with about five dancers around him. He was tied to a chair courtesy of Hyde and Fez's suggestion. Loud music erupted from the five-foot speakers that rested on either side of the stage. Hyde, Eric and Fez were at a fairly large table stuffing dollar bills down a dancers G-string. She danced provocatively for them. She was dressed in an airhostess outfit that was extremely tight and extremely short. Fez couldn't stop leering at the dancers chest. She slowly crawled up to Fez who found shortness in breath. She crawled right up to Fez so his head was right near her breasts. He felt obliged to give her another dollar so he stuck it in between her breasts. She whispered in his ear.
"Thanks cowboy." She then crawled back to the stage and began to dance with the other girls around Kelso. They all rubbed their hands on Kelso's chest and thighs. The ripped off his shirt and gave him a jug of beer to chug. The club erupted into a chant of the word chug. As the other customers shouted Kelso finished the entire jug in one gulp.
"What do you think of that baby?" Kelso slyly asked one of the dancer who was dressed in a barely there genie outfit.
She leaned in close and said. "Well that's very impressive, I am really starting to like you."
Kelso was quite drunk but was still able to give a clear response. "Well isn't that something. I guess I could make you like me a bit more."
"Really and how are you going to do that?" She asked while batting her eyelashes.
"Oh I have my ways." He said. The stripper started to laugh and left the stage and over to the pole. She took off her pink belly top that revealed her breasts. She then climbed onto the pole and proceeded to twirl around on it. All three of the guys were looking at her in wonder. She spotted Hyde looking at her and flounced over to their table. As Kelso saw this he looked like he wanted to protest but soon lost his track of thought as another blonde stripper took a sit on his lap.
The stripper was now dancing on Hyde. He genuinely seemed to be enjoying himself. Both Eric and Fez looked over and smiled at one another but when one of the strippers gave them funny looks Fez shouted out "No we are not together he has a girlfriend! I really like strippers." The girl just lifted her eyebrow and walked away.
The stripper who was dancing on Hyde was now grinding her hips into his.
"Hey I'm sure you're a really nice girl and all but I kind of have my eye on someone else." Hyde said. The stripper looked towards the stage at eh other strippers.
"Oh do you want one of my friend to join us, cos for you I can into that." She said while rubbing his back.
"No it's just that I'm kinda involved with someone right now." Eric gave him a strange look but carried on looking at a stripper dance.
"Oh really who?" She asked not quite believing him.
"Well it's a really long story. Not one I care to talk about." Hyde let the stripper get off of him and went to the bar to get another drink. The stripper follows him.
"Look it seems to me that your not wanting to talk about her indicates that you really like her or even love her so my advice to you is to go for it. Go for it no matter what's holding you back. Because in the end love is always worth it." She then walked off. Leaving Hyde at the bar thinking about what she said.
Jackie was at the table drinking a beer. She felt a little tipsy but was able to walk properly. She had left Donna, Jenna, Stacey and Camille on the dance floor. She looked at her four friends dancing the night away. Jackie thought that tonight was gonna suck beyond comparison because all hen nights ended with some cheesy stripper coming out in a really bad police uniform. Jackie Thanked god that tonight hadn't gone the same way. Jackie took a sip of her beer and looked around the large club. So many people where there all dancing like it was 1999. The music was blaring and Jackie could hardly hear herself think but that was a good thing, as she probably would have thought about Michael getting off with a stripper or Steven.
Jackie felt the alcohol reach her stomach and suddenly felt a jolt of energy. She got up out of her seat and paraded over to Donna who was dancing like a crazy girl.I bet Eric would have something to say about that Jackie thought. She grabbed Donna by the arm and all the girls followed her to the centre of the dance floor. The music erupted in Jackie's ears and she was having the time of her life. All the girls stood in a circle and danced with each other, which earned a lot of looks from the guys on the dance floor. One grabbed Jackie but she just shrugged him off and shouted at the top of her lungs.
"I'm getting married in a few days from now!!!" Then Donna and the rest of the girls starting whistling and shouted yeah.
Jackie continued to dance but felt the alcohol taking its effect. By now she had drunk at least eight beers, which was so unlike her, but she thought what the hell it was her hen night. The song had changed and the beginning bars of Sister Sledge's 'we are family' and filled the club. Donna was singing the words as was Stacey, Jenna and Camille.
"We are family, I got all my sisters with me, we are family so get up everybody and sing."
"Jackie are you having fun!" Donna shouted over the loud music.
"Yeah this is so cool!" Jackie replied while dancing. She was swaying her hips to the music and had her hands in the air. Donna was directly in front of her dancing.
"Isn't this the best? I have to bring Eric here. De-barge rocks!" Donna said enthusiastically.
Camille, Jenna and Stacey danced over.
"Hey you guys join the party!" Jenna said she was now dancing with a really hot guy. But he kept staring at Jackie.
"Do I know you?"the guy said. He walked towards Jackie and his breathe reeked of alcohol. Jackie continued to dance with Donna.
"No." Jackie replied.
"Yeah I'm sure I have. You went out with Steven Hyde right?"
Jackie remained silent.
"Well my mistake." The guy said as Jenna dragged him away.
"Jackie did you know him?" Camille asked.
"I told you no. I have never seen him before." And Camille just shrugged. There had been a rumour going around school saying that Jackie had gone out with Hyde but none of the cheerleaders believed it. But this had Camille thinking.
Stacey came up behind Jackie and grabbed her.
"So soon to be bride having a good time. Oh I'm so proud of you and Michael is so hot." She screamed.
"Yeah I am. Thank you." She reached for Stacey and gave her a hug. She pulled back and danced some more. Jackie felt so hot sweat was dripping from every pore and she knew she looked a mess. She told Donna she was heading to the ladies room to freshen up and she'd be back in a minute.
Eric was on his ninth beer and was acting like a total idiot. He was now up on the stage with Kelso singing an off key version of Queen's ' We are the champions'. Hyde couldn't help but laugh. Fez was getting a private lap dance but the girl ran out of the room and Fez came out holding his cheek.
"Fez man what happened?" Hyde asked.
"Well everything was going great finally Fez gets a girl and then I grabbed her ass and she slapped me around the face. I can tell you it was not pleasant." Fez complained while cooling his cheek down with a beer bottle.
"Fez your not allowed to touch the girls. They can touch you but you can't touch them." Hyde explained.
"Yeah well that sucks."
"Yeah it does Fez, yeah it does." Hyde said while walking over to the stage where Kelso and Eric were Fez followed.
"So Hyde did this help you forget about Jackie?" Fez asked.
"Yeah." He lied.
Kelso was getting a bit hot and heavy with one of the strippers.
"See why is he allowed to touch them I can't." Fez moaned.
"Because Kelso is an asshole who doesn't deserve Jackie." Hyde deadpanned. Fez was swaying a bit and held onto the stage.
"Heeeeyyyy! I thought you said you forgot about Jackie." Fez slurred.
"Yeah I did until now!"
Hyde walked onto the stage and helped Eric off. Apparently he was the only semi sober one. Eric stumbled and nearly fell.
"Hyde what are you doing I was having a good time." Eric said. He leaned over the bar they had walked over to and threw up.
"Well I thing you just blew it lover man now lets get Kelso and go it's like three in the morning." He said as he left Eric and Fez and went over to the stage to get Kelso. As walked towards Kelso he heard him hitting on the stripper dressed as an airhostess.
"See I know this place where we could go and have a really fun time!" Kelso said as he brushed the strippers arm and pulled her closer to him. The stripper giggled.
"Well I get off work in an hour so I'll be in front if you wanna....do stuff."
"Sure."
Hyde grabbed Kelso really roughly.
"Kelso man we gotta go. Forman just threw up over the bar and now we have to leave." Hyde ordered.
Kelso remained next to the stripper.
"But me and......" Kelso started but realised he couldn't remember her name.
"Brandy" The girl chipped in.
"Yeah me and Brandy were gonna go and do stuff."
By now Hyde was getting really pissed off. Kelso was gonna marry the girl of his dreams and he still wants to fuck a slut. Typical, this is really typical of Kelso he always thinks of himself. He's gonna get married to Jackie and he's gonna cheat on her. He always has and always will. She deserves better than that.... She deserves me. Suddenly it dawned on Hyde that he was good enough for Jackie. He loved her like no other person in the world and would never hurt her again. Over the summer Jackie had changed from the snobby rich bitch to this really intelligent Beautiful person whom Hyde had fallen in love with. She didn't care about possessions as much and truly wanted love. Suddenly all the bullshit Hyde had thought and said to justify himself had turned to dust.
"Kelso we're going now." He shouted and dragged Kelso off of the stage.
Eric was sitting on a stool while Fez was rubbing his back. When Kelso and Hyde came down both Fez and Eric stood up.
"So are we ready to leave?" Fez asked.
"Yeah we are." Hyde answered while carrying Kelso out of the Club.
"So Fez how was your night?" Kelso asked as the reached the car.
"Ai..You don't want to know."
Jackie, Donna, Stacey, Camille and Jenna were in a cab on their way back to Point Place. Donna was conked out in the back seat with Jackie and Camille, as was Stacey who was in the front seat with Jenna. Jackie looked out of the window on her side as the car drove away. She saw the bright lights of De-barge fade away into the night sky. The air felt freezing as the driver pulled up the window that was left open. Jackie's flesh was covered in Goosebumps. Donna stirred slightly in her drunken slumber and mumbled something about Eric.
Jenna turned her head towards Jackie and asked her what that guy she was with earlier was talking about. Camille immediately joined in the conversation. Jackie remained silent and feigned tiredness but the cheerleaders didn't buy it.
"Come on Jackie we used to tell each other everything." Camille moaned. She looked at Jenna who nodded in agreement.
"Fine. Look me and Steven Hyde had a fling at the beginning of summer but it didn't go anywhere. O.k. are you happy now?" Jackie said trying not to convey any emotion as she just lied through her teeth about her relationship with Steven not meaning anything. She also knew cheerleaders were like vultures when it came to gossip and who's dating who.
Jenna looked in shock, as did Camille.
"Oh my god this is huge!" Camille stated.
"See this is why I didn't want to tell you cos I knew you'd make a big deal about it." Jackie said.
Jenna was jumping in her seat. However Stacey was completely knocked out and didn't feel a thing.
"But this is a big deal. You went out with your fiancés best friend and now your getting married to your first boyfriend. I have to say Jackie this is better than Another World." Jenna said excitedly.
"Well I have to give it to you girl you really have good taste I mean Kelso is so handsome and Hyde is so sexy and mysterious." Camille sighed.
"Yeah so tell me who's a better kisser. Hyde or Kelso." Jenna asked.
Jackie wanted to laugh the thought of comparing Steven and Michael was hilarious. To Jackie Steven was better in every way. So why was she getting married to Michael. Jackie was thinking about this until Jenna and Camille burst out laughing.
"Jackie who's better?" Jenna asked.
"I can't answer that." Jackie said. She really could but she didn't want to say anything. Instead Jackie just smiled and allowed Camille and Jenna to argue among themselves who they thought was better.
Jackie was at Donna's getting ready for her hen night. Donna had arranged for some of her fellow cheerleaders out to celebrate Jackie's last few night's of freedom. The plan was to dress up as sexy as possible and head out to some of Kenosha's hippest clubs. She sat in front of the bathroom applying her makeup. Jackie looked gorgeous she wore a killer outfit.

"Yep, got everything I need let's go have fun!" Jackie replied.
With that both Donna and Jackie walked out of Donna's bedroom and headed towards the club De-barge.
Kelso walked into the basement ready to get Fez, Eric and Hyde. He sat down on the couch and waited for Hyde to come out of his room. Hyde emerged and was startled to find Kelso already there. Funny thing is when he heard the back door open and heard someone walk into the basement he hoped it would be Jackie.

"Heeeeyyyy! I thought you said you forgot about Jackie." Fez slurred.
"Yeah I did until now!"
Hyde walked onto the stage and helped Eric off. Apparently he was the only semi sober one. Eric stumbled and nearly fell.
"Hyde what are you doing I was having a good time." Eric said. He leaned over the bar they had walked over to and threw up.
"Well I thing you just blew it lover man now lets get Kelso and go it's like three in the morning." He said as he left Eric and Fez and went over to the stage to get Kelso. As walked towards Kelso he heard him hitting on the stripper dressed as an airhostess.
"See I know this place where we could go and have a really fun time!" Kelso said as he brushed the strippers arm and pulled her closer to him. The stripper giggled.
"Well I get off work in an hour so I'll be in front if you wanna....do stuff."
"Sure."
Hyde grabbed Kelso really roughly.
"Kelso man we gotta go. Forman just threw up over the bar and now we have to leave." Hyde ordered.
Kelso remained next to the stripper.
"But me and......" Kelso started but realised he couldn't remember her name.
"Brandy" The girl chipped in.
"Yeah me and Brandy were gonna go and do stuff."
By now Hyde was getting really pissed off. Kelso was gonna marry the girl of his dreams and he still wants to fuck a slut. Typical, this is really typical of Kelso he always thinks of himself. He's gonna get married to Jackie and he's gonna cheat on her. He always has and always will. She deserves better than that.... She deserves me. Suddenly it dawned on Hyde that he was good enough for Jackie. He loved her like no other person in the world and would never hurt her again. Over the summer Jackie had changed from the snobby rich bitch to this really intelligent Beautiful person whom Hyde had fallen in love with. She didn't care about possessions as much and truly wanted love. Suddenly all the bullshit Hyde had thought and said to justify himself had turned to dust.
"Kelso we're going now." He shouted and dragged Kelso off of the stage.
Eric was sitting on a stool while Fez was rubbing his back. When Kelso and Hyde came down both Fez and Eric stood up.
"So are we ready to leave?" Fez asked.
"Yeah we are." Hyde answered while carrying Kelso out of the Club.
"So Fez how was your night?" Kelso asked as the reached the car.
"Ai..You don't want to know."
Jackie, Donna, Stacey, Camille and Jenna were in a cab on their way back to Point Place. Donna was conked out in the back seat with Jackie and Camille, as was Stacey who was in the front seat with Jenna. Jackie looked out of the window on her side as the car drove away. She saw the bright lights of De-barge fade away into the night sky. The air felt freezing as the driver pulled up the window that was left open. Jackie's flesh was covered in Goosebumps. Donna stirred slightly in her drunken slumber and mumbled something about Eric.
Jenna turned her head towards Jackie and asked her what that guy she was with earlier was talking about. Camille immediately joined in the conversation. Jackie remained silent and feigned tiredness but the cheerleaders didn't buy it.
"Come on Jackie we used to tell each other everything." Camille moaned. She looked at Jenna who nodded in agreement.
"Fine. Look me and Steven Hyde had a fling at the beginning of summer but it didn't go anywhere. O.k. are you happy now?" Jackie said trying not to convey any emotion as she just lied through her teeth about her relationship with Steven not meaning anything. She also knew cheerleaders were like vultures when it came to gossip and who's dating who.
Jenna looked in shock, as did Camille.
"Oh my god this is huge!" Camille stated.
"See this is why I didn't want to tell you cos I knew you'd make a big deal about it." Jackie said.
Jenna was jumping in her seat. However Stacey was completely knocked out and didn't feel a thing.
"But this is a big deal. You went out with your fiancés best friend and now your getting married to your first boyfriend. I have to say Jackie this is better than Another World." Jenna said excitedly.
"Well I have to give it to you girl you really have good taste I mean Kelso is so handsome and Hyde is so sexy and mysterious." Camille sighed.
"Yeah so tell me who's a better kisser. Hyde or Kelso." Jenna asked.
Jackie wanted to laugh the thought of comparing Steven and Michael was hilarious. To Jackie Steven was better in every way. So why was she getting married to Michael. Jackie was thinking about this until Jenna and Camille burst out laughing.
"Jackie who's better?" Jenna asked.
"I can't answer that." Jackie said. She really could but she didn't want to say anything. Instead Jackie just smiled and allowed Camille and Jenna to argue among themselves who they thought was better.
