1Chapter 2
"Oh you kids." Kitty giggled, placing a tray of cookies on the basement table. "You're so cute with your little party." She smiled with excitement. "I have a feeling that you're all going to have a very surprising New Year." She grinning as she ran up the stairs.
"Okay. What is she talking about?" Jackie questioned.
"Who knows. It's Kitty. Sometimes I think she's two crayons short of a box if you know what I mean." Fez shrugged.
"Not really, but anyway let's talk about me now." She shook her head. "So when Donna and her boyfriend get here with..."
"Oh Jackie, Donna and Randy are not a couple. They decided to be friends remember?" Fez pointed out.
"Fez!" Jackie yelled. "Did you not here me when I said we're talk about ME?" She questioned. "Focus! We don't have time to remember trivial things like what's going on in Donna's life!"
"Sorry honey."
"Okay so let's go over the plan again." She began. "After Donna and that annoying boy get here with Stephen, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to hit on Donna like she's going out of style." Fez replied.
"Well, I mean she's already out of style but you've got the point so it's okay." Jackie waved her hand. "But make sure you make it really loud and obvious so that Stephen hears you."
"Okay-dookey."
"So then, if I know my man he's going to say something to you about not breaking my heart." She beamed. "And that is when you say..."
"Hey, It's just Jackie. It's not like she has feelings" Fez repeated the line that she had forced him to memorize. "Besides, she's a bitch."
Jackie frowned and slapped Fez's shoulder. "Okay I did not tell you to say that last part!"
Fez shrugged. "Opps." He paused then asked nervously. "So...then what happens."
"Then I pretend I over heard the whole thing and run out crying. Stephen will punch you and run after me. Then he'll take me in his arms and tell me that he loves me and he always has."
"See it was a good plan until the part where I get punched." Fez told her, beginning to sweat.
But before Jackie had a chance to reply, the basement door opened. Donna, Randy and two girls that Jackie had never seen before walked in.
"Jackie. Fez. This is my date Fownia and her friend Kristy." Randy introduced the girls, wrapping his arm around Fownia's waist. Fownia looked a lot like Donna only not with a giant like height.
"Okay. I could care less who they are." Jackie yelled, then turned to her friend. "Donna! Where is Stephen?"
"Jackie. I have some bad news." Donna told her, stepping behind the couch for protection. "Hyde got a letter from Samantha." She paused, waiting for Jackie to react. "And he took off to catch the 10:30 train. He gonna go try to get her back."
"What!" Jackie screeched, crossing her arms and stomping her feet. "I will not let this happen. That skank cannot just come back into the picture and ruin everything I've been working for!"
"Well, what are you gonna do about it Jackie?" Donna wondered.
Jackie took a deep breath to calm herself. "Fez. Give me your car keys." She demanded grabbing them from his hands. "Stephen is not going to get away from me that easily!"
Suddenly the basement door burst open and Kelso came running it. "The party has returned!" He announced with excitement.
Jackie rolled her eyes and pushed him out of the way. "Move Michael."
Kelso grabbed his arm. "Damn Jackie!" He screeched, watching her walk out the door. "That hurt."
Jackie glanced at the car's clock. It read 10:26 as she pulled furiously into the parking lot of the train station. "The train leaves in four minutes."
"Stephen!" She yelled running into the station. She glanced around but didn't see him anywhere. Rushing outside, she looked up and down the boarding area but it was empty. "Oh my gosh. He's already on the train." She cried, as the door of the train closed.
"No. No. Wait. You have to let me on." She pleaded with one of the uniformed men beside her.
"Do you have a ticket?" The man asked, but she just stared at him. "Then I'm sorry I can't let you on."
"Errr you are useless." She yelled, rushing back inside and up to the ticket boot, where there was a women waiting in line. Jackie pushed past the women and ran up to the counter. "Excuse me!"
"Miss I'm sorry but this women was ahead of you."
"This is more important. I need a ticket for the 10:30 train." She ordered.
"Look even if I wanted to help you...that train is sold out." The women frowned sternly.
Jackie growled with anger. Then walked slowly away from the counter and took a seat on one of the benches. She closed her eyes. "It's cool. Whatever." She whispered to herself, trying to go to a zen state.
"Jackie? What are you doing here?"
Jackie's eyes popped open. "Oh my gosh Stephen!" She popped out of her seat and threw her arms around him. "I knew you wouldn't leave. You love me. You really love me!"
"Whoa. Jackie." Hyde pulled away. "I'm just taking a later train."
"Oh. Right. I was just kidding." Jackie shrugged, forcing herself to laugh.
"Jackie. What are you doing here?"
"Umm I'm just picking up...a relative." She lied.
"Oh okay. See ya." Hyde shrugged then turned to walk away.
"No Stephen wait." Jackie called. "Okay. I'm not picking up a relative."
"You're kidding." He rolled his eyes and turned to face her.
"I know this is going to come as a shock but I came here to stop you from getting on that train." She revealed.
"Jackie. I thought you hate me." He pointed out, narrowing his eyes.
"Oh Yea. I do." She nodded, nervously. Then trailed off for a second as he stared down at her. "Well, I mean it's really more of a love-hate kind of thing."
"What?"
"Here's the thing. Fez and I set up this whole plan to get you to realize that you still care about me and I thought it worked...because I mean come on, who wouldn't love me right?" Jackie laughed. "But now you're leaving and I guess I have no choice but to force you to stay here with me."
"You know, I should have expected something like this from you." He growled.
"Stephen." She frowned, surprised by his reaction.
"No Jackie. God you're so damn selfish. All you ever think about is yourself." He yelled, picking up his duffle bag and turning to walk away. "I thought you moved on. So now I've made the decision to move on."
"Stephen wait." She called, chasing after him. "I only did it because I love you."
He stopped and glared down at her. "Jackie. If you really loved me, you should have just told me. Instead, you played stupid games to get me to say it first." With that he continued his walk to the train.
"I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Just don't go see Sam." She pleaded, grabbing his arm.
Hyde ripped his arm from Jackie. "Just leave Jacks."
