A/N: This may be a little off in regards to time with the last chapter but it's because I only had time to glace at the end of my last chappie before I got kicked off the computer and came and got the laptop. So I am sorry if it's a little off. It may not be but just in case . . .

The days until Saturday flew by for two people in Point Place, Wisconsin. Those two people were, of course, Jackie Burkhardt and Steven Hyde. Every night after school the two of them would sit in Foreman's basement with their friends, just waiting. Finally it was Saturday.
Hyde was sitting in his chair in the basement. He glanced down at his watch. It read 6:00. He supposed that he should probably start to get ready for his date with Jackie. She had left an hour ago. He wondered why it took girls so long to get ready, but if Jackie was going to look even better than she had earlier, he didn't care.
He took a shower and then put on the clothes that Mrs. Foreman had washed for him; a pair of tan cords and a blue button-down shirt he had found in the very back of his closet. He hadn't worn it in years. But then again, he hadn't been on a date in a long time. He looked at his watch again. 6:30. He might as well leave now. From what he remembered from Jackie whining about Kelso, she hated it when people were late. So he guessed he had better be early.
He went back into the main room in the basement, and grabbed his keys. Kelso gave a cat call.
"Looking good Hyde," he jeered. "You going to court or something?"
"No," said Fez. "He's got a date."
"You have a date?" asked Eric, disbelievingly. "Oh, let me guess, it's with the devil right?"
"Jackie is not the devil, man." Said Hyde. "And ya, I have a date."
"Man, just tell her that when she finally wakes up, I'll be here for her." Said Kelso.
"Kelso, man, that's not going to happen, and now I've gotta go or I'll be late." Retorted Hyde. With that he turned and left the basement.

Jackie was sitting in front of her dresser, staring at herself in the mirror. She decided that she looked perfect. She just hoped Steven wouldn't think she was trying too hard. She just wanted to look her best for Steven. She really cared about him. More so than Michael anyway. She glanced at the clock. 6:50. She hoped Steven would there soon, she hated it when people were late. Just then she heard a car pull up in the driveway. Jackie grabbed her purse and raced down the stairs, only stopping to check her reflection in the mirror at the bottom of the stairs. Steven knocked and she opened the door.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey." Was the reply. "You ready to go?"
"Ya sure, just let me grab my coat." Jackie said. She picked up her jacket and said, "Let's go."
Steven ushered her out the door before closing it behind them.

Hyde drove the two of them to The Grapevine. He had saved up enough money to pay for the evening out, so that Jackie could have anything she wanted. It was against his whole code to eat at expensive restaurants. The government was just trying to get more money from the American citizens by making think the food was better than that of cheaper places. It was all a big scam as far as he was concerned. But if he was going to go around with Jackie, he needed to do things like this. He may not like it but it might turn out to be worth it. Jackie was hot after all. He couldn't deny that.
So here he was, at The Grapevine. Hyde helped Jackie out of the car and then led her into the restaurant. They sat down at a little corner table and soon a waiter came to take their orders. Jackie, strangely, ordered the cheapest thing on the menu. Hyde thought that was strange. Kelso had always complained that she ordered the most expensive thing she could whenever she was out with him. Maybe she was changing.
After the meal, Hyde paid and they went off to the movies. Jackie wanted to see some romance flick and after some arguing, Hyde consented. They didn't end up seeing much of the movie. They were more interested in each other. At the end of the show, Hyde drove Jackie to her house and saw her to the door.
On the way home Hyde thought about the evening. It hadn't been so bad after all. He might have actually enjoyed it. He was starting to really enjoy spending time with the little pixie. That was scarey. He thought she had enjoyed the date too but he wasn't sure. He only hoped she had.

When Jackie got home, she put away her coat before heading up to her room. She changed into her pajamas before getting under the covers. She had really enjoyed her night out. She had purposely ordered the cheapest thing on the menu. She wasn't sure if Steven could afford what she normally ordered when she was out with Michael. And kissing him. Well, that was absolutely the best thing in the world. She didn't think there was anything better than kissing him. She was so glad that she was with Steven. He made her feel so good. She only hoped that he felt the same way.
