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

(dream flashback)

" i can't be with you anymore." reveals Eric, looks away from the sudden hurt in Jackie's eyes.

" why not?" asks Jackie, a tear rolling down her cheek.

Sighing to himself, Eric paces the basement," I'm going to college in the fall Jackie, and your only going to be a junior."

giving Eric an even more hurt look, Jackie shakes her head confused," why does that even matter?"

" i can't date a high school girl anymore, and thats what you are." dead pans Eric in a serious tone.

" you said that you loved me though." says Jackie in disbelief.

Shaking Jackie's hand off his shoulder, Eric glances down at her," I'm sorry Jackie, but its over."

looking down at the ground, Jackie cries silently," but...but i still love you Eric"

" well, i can't be with you. I'm sorry Jackie, but its over ok." says Eric, not looking Jackie in the eyes.

" but i love you Eric!" yells Jackie in and angry and hurt voice. ...

(end dream flashback)

" Jacks...Jackie..Jackie wake up!" hollers Hyde, shaking Jackie lightly.

Looking up at Hyde with tears in her eyes, Jackie crawls into his arms," Steven, thank god that your here!"

wrapping an arm around Jackie, Hyde pats her back," i live here...you need to just get over him Jacks."

" what if i can't though Steven?" questions Jackie in a sad voice.

" you have to." encourages Hyde, pecking Jackie's forehead.

Burying her face into Hyde's bare chest, Jackie sobs quietly," maybe i just don't want to."

laying down with Jackie, Hyde rests his chin on her shoulder," come on, give it a try."

" i just want to stay in bed all day." mutters Jackie, cuddling into Hyde

" well, I'm not going to let you." informs Hyde, enjoying having her so close.

Pulling the covers over her head, Jackie closes her eyes," thats not your choice."

picking Jackie up, Hyde carries her to the living room," your getting up Jacks...phew! And your taking a shower."

" Steven, i just want to sleep. ...and i do NOT smell!" protests Jackie, slapping his arm lightly.

" trust me, you do. Now go shower." orders Hyde with a chuckle.

" fine, but just so you know; i hate you." grumbles Jackie, heading towards the bathroom. ...

" hey Jacks, i was thinking that maybe we could catch a...whoa!" exclaims Hyde as he walks in on a nearly naked Jackie

" Steven! Knock!" snaps Jackie, closing her robe tight.

Staring at Jackie in just a robe, Hyde shakes his head distractedly," damn Jackie"

rolling her eyes, Jackie places her hands on her hips," get out of my room you pervert!"

" when did you get hot?" asks Hyde, replaying what he almost saw in his head.

" Steven!" snaps Jackie, throwing a shoe at him. " your gross!"

taking a step forward, Hyde touches Jackie's cheek," no, i mean...your beautiful Jackie"

looking up at Hyde, Jackie bites at her bottom lip," can i get dressed now?"

" yeah...so-sorry." stutters Hyde, nervously turning around so she can dress. ...

" ok, I'm ready." informs Jackie, emerging from her room in a tank top and shorts.

" for what?" asks Hyde, sneaking a glance at Jackie's legs.

Combing out her hair, Jackie sits beside Hyde," to go to the movies."

glancing over at Jackie, Hyde raises an eye brow," who said anything about going to the movies?"

" you did." reminds Jackie, pulling on her shoes.

" i did? Well, we could go for a drive instead." suggests Hyde, turning off the television.

Sighing to herself, Jackie picks up a magazine," i wanted to go to the movies though."

shifting in his seat, Hyde looks over at Jackie," i thought a drive would be more...romantic?"

" why would you want it to be romantic?" ponders Jackie in a curious tone.

" i thought that maybe we could go out, I'm single...your single." offers Hyde with a shy smile.

Rolling her eyes at Hyde, Jackie merely chuckles," are you going to take me to the movies, or am i climbing back into bed?"

giving Jackie a hurt look, Hyde quickly recovers," come on Jacks." ...

" Steven, tonight was great. I didn't even think about Eric once with you around." confesses Jackie proudly.

" not even once?" asks Hyde, a little suprised.

Nudging her face into Hyde's arm, Jackie hugs his chest," nope, and i have you to thank for it."

leading Jackie to his car, Hyde wraps an arm around her," why is that?"

" because, you didn't let me stay in bed and cry all day." confides Jackie with a smirk.

" he's not worth crying over, he always broke your dates off." reminds Hyde, glancing over at Jackie for a reaction.

Nodding her agreement, Jackie stares out the car window," i know...I'm just not going to date for a while i guess."

sighing in relief, Hyde glances over at Jackie," as in at all?"

" what so ever, I'm way too vulnerable. I don't want some jerk guy coming along and taking advantage of that fact." explains Jackie in a serious voice.

" what do you mean?" questions Hyde in confusion.

Laying her forehead against the cool glass, Jackie closes her eyes," i mean that i don't want to loose it to the first guy who says that he loves me and then have him leave me."

staring over at Jackie in shock, after a minute Hyde asks," you've never...before?"

" no, and i think thats probably one of the reasons that Eric dumped me." admits Jackie, hurt by the thought.

" he's a jerk...you know, i haven't either Jacks." confesses Hyde, looking at the ground sheepishly.

Laughing at this, Jackie rolls her eyes," oh please! I don't buy that!"

frowning to himself, Hyde sets the car in park," its true, i haven't!"

" please, I'm not an idiot Steven Every time i see you, your with a new girl. Any normal girl would be afraid to date a guy like you." points out Jackie, sitting up in her seat.

" and why is that?" inquires Hyde, hurt by Jackie's assumption.

stretching out in her spot, Jackie lets out a small yawn," they'd probably be afraid that you would cheat on them. I know that i would be."

following Jackie out of his car, Hyde catches up with her," i wouldn't cheat on you if we date, I'm not Eric"

" thats not what we're debating here." informs Jackie, hurt by the reminder.

" then what are we debating?" ponders Hyde, stepping in front of Jackie

" the fact that there is no way you are a virgin." dead pans Jackie, not believing it a bit.

" why is that not believable?" counters Hyde, a frown on his face.

" Steven, your a guy. Guys all want sex. Thats why." explains Jackie matter-of-factly. ... --

ok, well that was the first chapter you guys. Let me know what you think and more importantly if i should even bother continuing, I'm hoping you'll love it. I don't know why but for some reason i love doing Eric/Jackie/Hyde triangle fics, they are very addictive. And there's so many angles to come from, i even brought back a short lived guest star, you'll see who in chapter 2 or 3 i believe. Let me know what you guys think. And thanks for the reviews as always. :)
