A/N: Doo doo doo…sorry, just had to get a little silliness out of me!
Kelso stepped through the door, a grin on his face. "Man, you're missin' out! Jackie's mom's boobs so almost popped out!" Within seconds he was back out the door.
Hyde rolled his eyes behind his glasses and returned to his stance opposite of Edward. He remained quiet, one of his strongest and most threatening approaches.
Edward made for movement, noticing Hyde's eyes dart. It was going to be a close call if he was to ever try and make it out of there. This Hyde character would surely keep him from the party, and Edward couldn't just leave the house.
Edward smirked, "Tell me, how did she end up with you? She lose a bet?"
Hyde narrowed his eyes.
Edward took a daring step forward. "Did she feel sorry for you?"
Hyde balled his fists, his knuckles cracking.
"Pity…perhaps?"
He was close, way to close for comfort. The tips of their shoes touched, both chests threatening expanded in a silent battle made just for them. A clenched fist raised and cocked back as the door opened again.
Steven's fist connected with Edwards jaw. The prep staggered backwards, cradling his face with one of his hands.
"Steven!" Jackie shrieked, and he whirled around, just now noticing that she was there.
"Jackie, he-"
She shrieked again, covering her face with her hands. Her eyes were wide, and Hyde took that as a sign. He whirled around, shielding her from anything that could happen. And what he saw scared him more than anything. For Edward was holding a gun.
Coca Cola Jr. laughed viciously, "Well, well, well. Looks like we meet again. You do remember me, don't you?"
Hyde gulped, feeling Jackie gripping his t-shirt from behind. "Don't hurt her." He growled, that sense of protectiveness overcoming him.
Narrowing his eyes Edward answered, "Why would I waste a bullet?"
Hyde kept his mouth closed, knowing whatever he said could end up in a bad situation for him and Jackie. He felt her slightly shaking behind him, but knew she was watching, trying to be brave…behind him.
He'd be damned if he ever let anything hurt her. If taking another shot was what he had to do to keep her safe, then so be it. But nothing on this earth was going to keep Hyde from protected who he loved.
Edward cocked the gun, aimed, and smirked. "Goodbye…"
