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. I thought that since my last story got such good reviews, I'd try another j/h +j/e story. They are just so much fun to write, i love the conflict. 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 #1
" so, what? You just broke up with him?" questions a very confused Donna
" well...yeah." dead pans Jackie in a flat tone.
Shaking her head, Donna just rolls her eyes," i see, and what was wrong with this guy?"
sighing to herself, Jackie paints her toe nails," nothing, i just didn't feel anything."
" you didn't feel anything?" repeats Donna with a raised eye brow.
" yeah, there were no sparks." explains Jackie, stretching out her legs.
Looking over at Jackie, after a moment Donna asks," no sparks? What does that mean?"
letting her toe nails dry, Jackie shrugs her shoulders," i didn't feel anything. But i have a date with this guy Michael Kkelso tonight."
" you have a date with kelso!" exclaims Donna, nearly choking on her drink.
" umm, yeah? ...why?" asks Jackie, flipping through a magazine she'd found.
Sitting down beside Jackie, Donna glances over at Jackie," Jackie, he has a reputation for cheating on every girl he dates. You do know that right?"
combing out her hair, Jackie rummages her closet," maybe he's changed."
" i doubt it." remarks Donna with a laugh.
" well what do i do? I'm supposed to see him tonight you know." points out Jackie, looking up from her mad search.
Grabbing herself another soda, Donna tosses Jackie one," call him and say your sick."
taking a swig of her soda, Jackie collapses on her cot," think that will work?"
" yeah, he's an idiot." reminds Donna, handing Jackie the phone.
" I'll call him now." mutters Jackie, dialing his number. ...
" so you can't go out?" inquires kelso with a disappointed tone.
" no, I'm really sick Michael" lies Jackie, pretending to hack.
Pacing his room, kelso lets out a huff," well, when can i see you?"
biting at her bottom lip, Jackie lays back in bed," I'm ready to date yet."
" your not?" asks kelso, kicking at the ground.
" no, i thought that i was but I'm not over my ex yet." informs Jackie, relieved when he buys it. ...
" way to lie Jackie..seriously, not over your ex yet?" jokes Donna with a roll of her eyes.
" yeah, I'm going to hell." confirms Jackie, plopping on the couch.
Laughing to herself, Donna just nods," yeah you are."
frowning at this, Jackie throws a pillow at Donna," shut up you lumber jack!"
" i was just agreeing with you!" yells Donna, dodging the pillow.
" well don't!" retorts Jackie in a huff.
Walking down stairs, Eric grabs a pop sickle," whats with the ruckus?"
switching on the television, Donna flips through the channels," Jackie broke off her date with kelso."
" you had a date with kelso? He's bad news." advices Eric, sitting near Jackie
" all guys are Eric" enlightens Jackie, laying back in her spot.
Glancing over at Jackie, Eric frowns to himself," I'm not."
nodding her agreement, Jackie crawls into Eric's arms," yeah, but your my best friend."
" your a pain." grumbles Eric, placing an arm around her.
" yeah, but you love me anyway." teases Jackie with a smile.
Hugging Jackie's waist, Eric sighs inwardly," more then you know." ...
( that evening)
" I'm going to head up to bed." informs Eric, giving Jackie a nudge.
" already?" mutters Jackie, rubbing her eyes.
Itching at his chest, Eric yawns tiredly," I'm tired Jackie"
jumping up from her seat, Jackie tugs on Eric's sleeve," can't you sleep down here?"
" your afraid to be alone down here aren't you?" ponders Eric with a smirk.
" what? NO! ...yeah." confesses Jackie with a sigh.
Sighing to himself, Eric just shrugs," fine, I'll sleep down here."
giving Eric a hug, Jackie pecks his cheek," your the best Eric"
" yeah, yeah. Go to bed." mumbles Eric, following Jackie to her room.
" night Eric" whispers Jackie, climbing into bed. ...
( following morning)
" Jackie?" asks Eric, giving her a light push.
" hmmm?" mutters Jackie in her sleep.
Staring down at Jackie, Eric nudges her," your on my arm."
hugging Eric's chest, Jackie buries her face in his shoulder," i don't want to get up."
" thats fine, but your crushing me." explains Eric, trying to break free from her grasp.
" sorry." sighs Jackie, letting go of Eric
Smiling down at Jackie, Eric pecks her forehead," its cool Jackie"
biting at her bottom lip, Jackie looks up at Eric," you think I'll ever find the right guy?"
" of course you will." confides Eric, rubbing Jackie's back.
" i hope so." yawns Jackie in a sleepy voice.
Wrapping an arm around Jackie, Eric pulls her close," maybe he's right in front of you and you just don't know it."
with a quick shake of her head, Jackie stretches in her spot," if you mean Jake, i felt nothing for him."
" no, maybe its someone that you see everyday." suggests Eric, hoping she catches the hint.
" the only person that i see everyday is you though, and friends can't date friends." says Jackie with a chuckle.
wincing at Jackie's words, Eric mutters to himself," then i wish we weren't friends."
curling up against Eric, Jackie closes her eyes," what'd you say?"
" nothing, go back to sleep." whispers Eric, resting his chin atop Jackie's head.
" ok Eric" says Jackie, drifting back to sleep. ...
( that afternoon)
" Eric, its just a high school party." confides Jackie with a sigh.
" yeah, and your only a sophomore" reminds Eric with a frown.
Combing out her hair, Jackie rummages her closet for clothes," yeah, so?"
following Jackie around her room, Eric lets out a huff," so? Seniors will be there, probably even college guys."
" whats your point? ...do you mind?" asks Jackie before lifting her shirt.
" what? Oh, right. ...my point is, guys are jerks." dead pans Eric as he looks away.
Pulling on a clean shirt, Jackie buttons it up," so come with me."
sitting down on Jackie's bed, Eric watches as she finishes dressing," Jackie, i have to work tonight. Otherwise i would just to make sure nothing happened to you."
" Eric, I'll be fine ok? I'll even bring a friend." comfort Jackie with a smile.
" just, don't stay out too late. I'm going to be waiting up for you." reminds Eric in defeat. ...
( that evening)
" this is a great party mark." informs Jackie, setting down her drink she hadn't even touched.
" I'm glad your enjoying it, i know a way we can both have fun." suggests marks, grabbing Jackie's hand.
Following mark away from the party, Jackie hesitates slightly," where are we going?"
leading Jackie into a room, mark kisses her neck," i thought we could be alone."
" but i liked the party." complains Jackie, moving away from him.
" we could have one of our own." smirks mark, making a grab for Jackie
Pushing mark away, Jackie backs into a wall," I'd rather just go back to the party."
running his hand up Jackie's skirt, mark presses his hips against hers," relax, we'll have some fun of our own."
" mark, i said no!" yells Jackie, shoving at him. ...
" why don't you do yourself a favor and leave her alone." growls Hyde, walking into the room when he hears the commotion.
" who the hell are you?" asks mark, turning away from Jackie
Ducking out from mark's grasp, Jackie hides behind her savior," thanks."
glancing down at Jackie, Hyde just nods," come on, lets get you out of here." ... --
