Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
"Steven... nothing is going on between Tommy and me."
She wanted Hyde to understand how he was the only one for her but he just didn't get it. They had been together for two years and yet he was still jealous and insecure. She had that problem before but she knew him better now and she knew that he would never hurt her.
"Okay. Just go out then. I don't care."
"But you do care! I can tell! I know you! Don't you know me at all?"
"Jackie, just go." Hyde felt like giving up. For as long as they were together he knew he wasn't good enough. He knew that any day he could wake up and she would realize it too.
"Fine. Bye." Jackie left with Ariel and Tommy. She pretended not to notice how hurt Steven was but it was hard for her. She knew it was killing him. Why wouldn't he just admit that he was jealous and that he wanted to spend time with her alone?
Hyde watched her walk away. He couldn't believe it. He didn't even try and fight for her. He didn't know why but he didn't. Finally he got some sense knocked into him. "Jackie!!!!" He yelled at the top of his lungs.
You are my only one
The tiny brunette turned around and saw Hyde running towards her.
"Jackie, just know that I do care. I do."
"Steven, sometimes when you make an effort I can see more clearly that you do care. I believe you now but sometimes I don't. I don't believe you care."
"Jackie, I'm sorry. I'll do anything, whatever it takes. Just know that whatever you are going through, I feel it too Jackie."
"You are my only one. There's no one else. Don't ever think otherwise. No matter what happens I love you... only you."
"Okay. I know that now. I'm sorry. Just go have fun." Hyde walked back to his car and drove back to Point Place.
I let go, there's just no one that gets me like you do
"Hey Foreman."
"Hey Hyde. Wait... Hyde? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be with Jackie?"
"Yeah. Change of plans. Everything's cool though."
"Everything's cool though? You expect me to buy that? Hyde... please. Just tell me what's wrong."
"Nothing."
"Nothing?" Eric sat down beside Donna. "Nothing is wrong. Did you hear that Donna? Nothing is wrong. That's why he came back to Point Place. Nothing is wrong."
"Eric... will you shut up?" Hyde yelled.
"Hyde... I think Eric's right. We know you. Something's wrong."
"No. You think you know me, but you don't. Nobody does."
"Nobody? Hyde we've known you forever. I think we know you well." Donna said and Eric nodded his head in agreement.
"No one gets me. Just don't worry about it." Hyde went into his little room and thought about Jackie and how everything was going to be okay... he realized that there was someone who understood him. Jackie did.
You are my only, my only one
"Jackie?" Tommy asked at the dinner table.
"Yes."
"You seem to be off in your own little world tonight. Is everything alright?"
"Yes. Everything is fine." Jackie said simply.
"I don't believe you." Ariel said. "You don't seem like everything is fine."
"Well everything is fine. Steven and I made up and now I'm out with my two best friends in Milwaukee. Everything is fine."
That night, Steven couldn't stop thinking about Jackie. Jackie lay in bed and heard Ariel snoring. She tried to sleep but she couldn't stop thinking about Steven. At the same time they both reached for their phone and called each other. It was busy.
Why is the Foreman's line busy? Donna must be talking to Eric. Jackie thought to herself.
Why is Jackie's line busy? I hope she's not talking to Tommy. Hyde thought.
