Disclaimer: can't sue this gal, I don't own not one thing. Although I'd love to own a piece of Hyde.

Author's Note: this is my all ORIGINAL VERSION of how J/H got together. It's an alternate universe fic, so bare with me.

If you like, let me know in your reviews. I live for them you guys, and thanks for the reviews on my last fic. You all rock.

Chapter #5

jumping out of bed, Hyde gasps in shock," holy crap! What the hell was that?"

rubbing at her eyes sleepily, Jackie looks up at Hyde," whats wrong?"

" Jackie..dammit all to hell!" mutters Hyde, cursing his fate.

" Steven?" questions Jackie in a sleepy tone. " what is wrong?"

" nothing." lies Hyde, keeping his Zen face intact.

Crawling into Hyde's arms, Jackie nuzzles against him," bad dream?"

sighing to himself, Hyde closes his eyes," no, great dream that will never happen."

" what was it about?" ponders Jackie, curious now.

" well, i slept with an amazing girl." confides Hyde with a heavy sigh.

Hugging Hyde's arm, Jackie smiles tiredly," what kind of girl?"

touching Jackie's cheek, Hyde brushes his finger against her lips," a special girl."

" what is this special girl like?" asks Jackie with a yawn.

" she's great, no one could hold a candle to her." informs Hyde, wrapping Jackie in his arms.

Glancing up at Hyde, Jackie lets out a sad sigh," she sounds...amazing."

lifting Jackie's chin, Hyde smirks down at her," thats because she is."

" who, me?" questions Jackie, blushing slightly.

" yeah Jacks." admits Hyde with a small smile.

Shifting in her spot, Jackie squirms around," oh...ok."

staring at Jackie's back, Hyde lets out a huff," whats wrong Jacks?"

" nothing, I'm just tired." mumbles Jackie, closing her eyes.

" come on Jackie" pleads Hyde, touching her shoulder.

Burying her face in Hyde's chest, Jackie cries silently," I'm fine Steven"

rubbing Jackie's back, Hyde touches her face," I'm sorry."

" for what?" inquires Jackie, looking up at Hyde

" liking you, i know you don't feel the same." says Hyde gruffly, not meeting Jackie's eyes.

Giving Hyde a scared look, Jackie says in a small voice," Steven, i do and it frightens me."

staring down at Jackie, Hyde shakes his head confused," what?"

" i like you Steven" repeats Jackie in a soft tone.

" so, what do we do about this?" questions Hyde, searching Jackie's eyes.

Touching Hyde's bare chest, Jackie bites her bottom lip," i don't know."

tilting his head down, Hyde kisses Jackie sweetly," me we should just go out Jacks. I like you and you like me."

" but what about Eric?" asks Jackie hesitantly.

" it'll talk to him." assures Hyde, pulling Jackie close. ...

" your dating Jackie now!" explodes Eric angrily.

" yeah, kind of." admits Hyde with a shrug.

Glaring over at Hyde, Eric merely frowns," Hyde, what the hell!"

grabbing himself a beer, Hyde takes a swig," i like her, she likes me. Took us a while to figure that out, but we did man."

" unbelievable." mutters Eric, pacing the basement.

" come on Eric, its not like Hyde stabbed you in the back. Just like he didn't try to snag Donna from me, oh- wait a minute!" jokes Kelso in a sarcastic manner.

" it was one kiss/ get bent Kelso!" Donna and Hyde yell at the same time.

Folding his arms across his chest, Kelso frowns at this," whatever, you still kissed him Donna"

rolling his eyes, Hyde picks up a magazine," it was two years ago, get over it."

" Hyde, you knew that i liked Jackie" accuses Eric, angry at the thought.

" wait, you like Jackie too? What is it about her?" ponders Donna in confusion.

Unwrapping a piece of candy, fez takes a bite," she's hot, open up your eyes."

with a shake of her head, Donna just laughs," yeah, whatever." ...

" hey Steven, i thought you were com...what happened to your face?" asks Jackie with a gasp.

" i gave Eric a free shot, turns out he can pack a punch. Who would have guessed?" jokes Hyde, trying to lighten the mood.

Slugging Hyde on the shoulder, Jackie sits beside him," your an idiot."

rubbing his arm, Hyde glances over at Jackie," what was that for?"

" for being a dumb ass!" yells Jackie, touching Hyde's cheek.

" have you been talking to Red again?" teases Hyde with a smile.

Chuckling to herself, Jackie pulls Hyde from his seat," he's very insightful Steven"

wrapping an arm around Jackie, Hyde leads her out of the basement," well, at least you haven't threatened to kick my ass yet."

" oh its been a long time coming Steven trust me." points out Jackie with a smirk. ...

" Jackie" greets Eric when spotting her.

" Eric..hey." smiles Jackie, glancing at the ground.

Leaning against the hood of the vista cruiser, Eric raises an eye brow," whats new with you?"

shifting her gaze, Jackie squirms in Hyde's arms," i take it you know about me and Steven"

" what tipped you off?" questions Eric with a scowl.

" the angry glare mostly." admits Jackie with a huff.

Resting his arms around Jackie, Hyde jokes," not to mention the shiner gave it away."

frowning to himself, Eric watches as Jackie grabs Hyde's hand," you want another?"

" whatever, come on Jacks." mutters Hyde, leading her toward to El Camino.

" I'll see you around Eric"says Jackie, glancing back at Eric with a sad smile. ...

" Steven?" asks Jackie that evening.

" yeah Jacks?" grumbles Hyde, pulling off his shirt.

Picking at her plate, Jackie lets out a huff," does Eric hate me now?"

staring down at Jackie, Hyde pecks her forehead," no, why would he?"

" because I'm seeing you, when not even two days ago i told him i wasn't looking." says Jackie in a rush.

" if he is, he'll get over it. I know he won't be talking to me for a while. But it will pass Jacks." comforts Hyde with a smile.

Tugging on Hyde's sleeve, Jackie snatches his fries," yeah, i guess your right."

folding his arms around his chest, Hyde looks over at Jackie," what do you think your doing?"

" eating my fries." informs Jackie, tossing a fry in her mouth.

" no, their MY fries." points out Hyde with a frown.

Gasping as Hyde swipes his fries, Jackie huffs in protest," hey, i paid for those!"

laughing at this, Hyde shakes his head," no you didn't, i did."

" whatever, it's always words with you Steven" argues Jackie, picking at her plate.

" fine, take them if your going to be a cry baby." teases Hyde with a chuckle.

Sticking her tongue out at Hyde, Jackie pinches his arm," your the cry baby."

rubbing his arms, Hyde nudges Jackie playfully," your lucky that i like you."

" like or love me?" asks Jackie with a hopeful smile.

" lets not push it Jacks." points out Hyde, kissing her lightly.

Finishing Hyde's fries, Jackie sips at his soda," your not so easy to trick."

pecking Jackie on the forehead, Hyde just nods," nope."

" I'll just try harder." jokes Jackie playfully.

" it won't work." informs Hyde with a roll of his eyes and a smile. ... --
