Behind Steven Hyde's Blue Eyes

Author's Note: Thank you all for the reviews. I always write better when others encourage me. The title of this chapter is another song by Pink Floyd called 'Money.' From now on I will try to name my titles after songs I like.

Chapter Two

Money

Jackie walked swiftly from the Forman household toward her car. She turned into the driveway and hoped in her adorable silver topless bug. (A/N: Not sure what kind of car Jackie would have, but this car fits her well.) She put her keys in the ignition and started the car. She leaned and sighed; she loved the sound of her expensive car smoothly starting. She began to back out the driveway when she noticed a familiar noise. She looked around but she couldn't see who was making the noise. Finally she looked in the back and discovered the source of the racket: It was the sound of Eric Forman and Donna Pinciotti attempting to make out.

"What the hell are you two doing in the back of my car?" Jackie yelled while rethinking her question, "Actually what the hell are you attempting to do in the back of my car?" She turned off her car and sat there waiting for an answer while the two finished their disgusting "make-out."

"Oh Jackie, this is your car?" Donna sat up while fixing her shirt (plaid and flannel as usual), "Eric and I thought Mrs. Forman convinced Red to let her get a new car. She began to pull her hands through her straight, red hair.

"Yeah, but now that I know that it's yours, I swear I could smell your scent," Eric chuckled while adjusting his collar, "I felt like you were watching us like some freak…like Fez."

"Hey, I take that offensively!"

There was a bump and a "Goddamn car!" heard from the trunk. Suddenly Fez emerged from the car. He walked over to them and said, "I will have you know that I could barely hear anything through the wall anyway. I couldn't even see anything, and it would have been a waste of my time except I found this bag of gummy bears. So I will be leaving know."

Fez walked away while trying to open his newfound treasure, but ended up socking himself in the face because he had pulled to hard on the plastic. Jackie, Donna, and Eric just stood there with their mouths hanging open for about two minutes. Then they looked at each other and burst out laughing.

"Usually I am totally grossed out by Fez watching me make out," Donna laughed while getting out of the car, " But seeing him hit himself in the face while trying to open that bag was just hilarious."

"Yeah," Eric agreed, "Only next time let's make out in a private area." He wiggled his eyebrows at down, who in return gave him a playful slap on the arm.

"Next time don't make out in my car and get slobber on the interior," Jackie rolled her eyes while restarting her car, "Better yet, don't make until I am fifty yards away." Her request fell on deaf ears because Donna and Eric were already gone. Probably went to make out again.

Jackie was driving down the highway trying to push the repulsive memories of Eric and Donna out of her mind. But this reminded her a little bit of her and Michael. Lately, she had become less controlling and snobby. Ever since her father had gone on that extremely long business trip to Sweden.

She had been watching television late at night. A national geographic program came on about third world nations. It made Jackie realize how unfortunate so many were. It made her thoughtful, which lead to her to read books. One of the books was a romance novel, not a mushy romance novel, but a novel that thought about how to be a true lover. It said stuff like being less controlling and more loving. Jackie could only remember a few tips of advice because she had fallen asleep with the book on her head.

Now as Jackie was driving, she thought maybe she could better her relationship with Michael if she was a better lover. So she did not tell Michael to get her stuff or take her places as much as she used to. She also tried complimenting him and not complimenting herself…as much. Jackie felt more loving, but she had been seeing less of Michael. This saddened her a bit, but she thought maybe he was adjusting to her new and improved ways.

She continued to ponder and she remembered something. This morning, Steven had seemed less hostile. And not just this morning…lately Steven had seemed a bit nicer towards her. For one, he had quit flinching when she entered the room; now he just usually ignored her or barely talked to her. But it was an improvement because he talked to her without burning her in every sentence. Maybe Steven was noticing her changes.

She thought back to him sitting there on the couch by himself. She wanted to join him…. Whoa, whoa, whoa…where did that come from was she actually thinking of Steven…Steven Hyde, her sworn enemy…was she thinking of him on friendly terms. Okay this has to stop now.

Jackie turned on the radio. It was on a station playing rock and roll. Uh, Michael must have changed it. Jackie was about to turn to a disco station when the radio station man announced the next song: Money by Pink Floyd.

"Well that sounds like an interesting title," Jackie said to herself. She decided to listen to the song while she continued her hunt for Michael. She wasn't even realizing that she was beginning to share to interests as her "hated enemy"…Steven Hyde.

Author's Note: I hoped you found that chapter more interests. Anyway on the topic of pairings: this story is eventually going to be J/H, but I can make it J/K for a few chapters or I can make them break up in the next chapter. So tell me what you want in your reviews, I will write the next chapter soon.
