Summary: My version of this seasons Jackie/Hyde break up fiasco, enjoy and R&R please! )

Chapter # 7

H:"….. ok….."

(ten minutes later)

J:"……well?"

H:" what?"

Zipping up her coat slightly, Jackie rubs at her eyes," I thought that you wanted to talk?"

With a small nod, Hyde gruffly informs," I do."

J:" ok….. So why aren't you talking then?"

H:" I don't know."

Shifting in her seat, Jackie sits so she's facing Hyde completely," if you want to just sit out here for a bit…… we could do that."

Tensing up when Jackie scoot toward him, Hyde relaxes a bit,"……that's cool."

J:" cool."…….

(back in the cabin)

E:" what do you think is taking them so long?"

D:" I don't know, maybe they are finally talking."

F:" perhaps they are……. Or they could be arguing."

K:( trying to peek out the window with the other's) " nah, I'll bet they've made up and their probably doing it."

E:" ewww, no! Kelso, shut up!"

D:" yeah, really! ( shudders at the thought) Oh, great. Thanks for the mental image!"

F:" oh, Eric relax. They are both just sitting in the vista cruiser, see?"

K:( laughing at Eric and Donna) " oh, man! You two should have seen your faces just now."

E:" that's not funny Kelso!"

F:" I don't know, I thought it was kind of funny. And you have to admit, it was a pretty good burn."

K:" thank you, Fez."

E:" yeah, ok……. Whatever."

D:" you guys, what's important is that their talking."

F:" Donna is right, maybe they will work things out."

K" oh, I hope so. (rubs his left arm) My left shoulder's is starting to get bruised because of the two of them!"

D:" maybe it's because you're an idiot Kelso."

K:"…… nah, I'm pretty sure it's because of them."…….—

(hour or so later)

J:" hey, Steven?"

H:"…….yeah?"

Covering her mouth with a yawn, Jackie stretches out in her seat," do you want to just go inside now?"

With a silent nod, Hyde glances over at Jackie for the first time in twenty minutes," that's cool."

J:" this was ok."

H:"……ok, coming?"

Following Hyde out of the vista cruiser, Jackie gives him a tired half smile, " yeah….. hey, Steven?"

Stopping in mid step when Jackie touches his arm, every muscle in Hyde goes tense once again,"…..yeah Jackie?"

J:" I…..umm…..I, ummm….. (drops her hand toward her side in a silent huff)….. night."…….

E:" so, Hyde?

H:" what?"

E:" you know what."

H:" can't say that I do."

E:" did the two of you finally talk?"……

J:" not really."

D:" what do you mean not really?"

J:" exactly that."

D:" Jackie!"

J:" what? Donna, I'm trying to go to bed."

D:" whatever. So if the two of you didn't talk then what did you do?"…….—

H:" nothing."

E:" yeah, right. Seriously Hyde."

H:" we didn't do anything."

E:" so your telling me that the two of you just sat in the vista cruiser the whole time, and didn't talk or anything?"……

J:" that is exactly what I'm telling you."

D:" I don't believe you."

J:" you don't have to."

D:"…….so the two of you really didn't talk at all?"…….

H:" no, we did."

E:" well, ok. What about?"

H:" I don't know, stuff."

E:" like what?"

H:" nothing important."

E:" you're not going to tell me anything are you?"…….

J:" not really, no."

D:" well, did he at least try to talk to you about…..things?"

J:" yeah, he did. Ok?"

D:" and?"

J:" it didn't go so well."

D:" what do you mean?"…….

H:" I don't know, whatever!"

E:" come on, Hyde."

H:" I tried to talk with Jackie and I froze man."

E:" you froze?"

H:" yeah."

E:" what do you mean, you froze?"……

J:" well, after a couple of minutes I could tell that he was really struggling."

D:" so what happened?"

J:" I told Steven that if he just wanted to sit outside for a bit, that it would be cool with me."

D:" and that was it?"

J:" yes, that was it. Now Donna, can't I please go to bed!"

D:" ok, ok!….. We'll talk in the morning."--
