He's weedy

He's twig-like

He's twitchy

But I liked him

I don' know how either, one minute Hyde's turning down stray dogs the next I'm standing next to the weedy, twig-like, twitchy, boy that I like, and I'm laughing

Of all the things I expect of myself this is…well it isn't one of them. I'm not the kind of girl who sees a guy and goes gaga but on that day, I did

After I calmed him down (dam Hyde's scarier than I thought) we started to talk,

"So..." he started nervously "I like your…town…low mortality rate"

it was senseless, it was confusing, it was ridiculous, but it made me laugh

"Yeah that's what it says on the brochures" I laughed

He smiled, it was a sweet smile, it made me want to giggle, but I knew I did Hyde would never let me hear the end of it. Donna Pinciotti does not giggle I subtly noticed Jackie walking over to Hyde but I shrugged it off, which is strange because that was usually the kind of thing I would immediately want to see,

"I'm going to go out on a limb and say you're new" I asked happily, up until this point I didn't know you could feel happy about asking a question

"Yeah" he nodded "was it y paralysing fear that gave me away"

"Actually I thought that was Hyde induced fear" he raised an eyebrow

"He has his own kind of fear?"

I grinned and we both let out a small laugh when we heard Hyde call out for help with a small edge of fear in his voice

We looked over to find Jackie pouting an angry look on he face and Hyde…showing no emotion, wow big shock there

I laughed again "he can't cope with cheerleaders"

"Every Clark has a kryptonite" he suddenly looked fear stricken, "did I just say that out loud?"

"Its ok," I smiled "super man references are not frowned apon"

All of a sudden a shrill cry came from behind me, Jackie's cry, her eyes were full of tears and she had a look of fear and shock mixed together on her face, I glanced over at Hyde. His eyes were wide behind his sunglasses and his mouth was agape, he too had a small hint of fear in his expression.

I couldn't help it I laughed at him, if cheerleaders scared him it was nothing compared to crying girls,

Then without warning Jackie dropped to the floor having what appeared to be a mental break down

A guy I didn't know came up to Hyde

"What'd you do?" he asked in awe

"I just asked-" Jackie's eyes went wide and she sprang to her feet and clamped a hand over his mouth

He gave her a puzzled look

"No," she said firmly "you tell any one and I'll have my father destroy you!"

He still looked confused when she removed her hand from his mouth

"Whatever" warning bells rang out when he said it, I knew he was just being Zen but Jackie…didn't

I turned back to Eric "I'm really sorry about this but me Hyde and Fez are going to this place called the hub after school you in?"

He looked slightly shocked but nodded none the less

I flashed him a smile and ran over to Jackie who at Hyde's last comment had started hyperventilating

Hyde looked like Eric had not half an hour ago, I ignored him and grabbed Jackie as she started to fall

As soon as she had her balance she raced towards the bathroom I lazily followed glaring at Hyde for making me have to go through this, then I remembered I could have been talking to Eric,

I glared twice as hard
