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 #2

" Jackie, I'm not that guy." points out Hyde with a sigh.

"...yeah, i guess maybe your not." agrees Jackie after a minute.

Glancing over at Jackie, Hyde raises an eye brow," what changed your mind so suddenly?"

placing her arms around Hyde, Jackie sways back and forth," you just don't strike me as the cheating type."

" i don't?" questions Hyde now intrigued.

" nope, not a bit...music would probably make this better hu?" chuckles Jackie, laying her head on Hyde's chest.

Nodding his head with a laugh, Hyde tenses when he spots Eric," hey, how about we head home?"

whirling around with Hyde, Jackie smiles up at him," but i thought that we were going to the Hub?"

" i was thinking we could order in instead Jacks." suggests Hyde, praying she doesn't notice Eric

" ok, but why the sudden change of pla..." starts Jackie stopping in mid sentence.

Sighing when Jackie notices Eric with another girl, Hyde groans to himself," come on Jackie"

taking one look at Hyde, Jackie takes off down the street," I've got to go!"

" ...hey, whats with her?" asks Eric, walking up to Hyde

" you just broke her heart, thats what asshole!" yells Hyde, punching Eric square in the face. ...

(back at the apartment)

" Jackie..come on Jacks. Open the door." pleads Hyde to a closed door.

" go away Steven" says Jackie through muffles sobs.

Knocking on Jackie's door, Hyde leans against it," come on Jackie, just let me in."

tying her robe tight, Jackie crawls under her covers," just leave me alone, I'm going to sleep."

" i brought pizza though." entices Hyde, hoping she'll open the door.

" I'm not hungry!" snaps Jackie in an angry tone.

Smirking when he finds a key, Hyde unlocks Jackie's door," fine, then I'm coming in."

hiding under her covers, Jackie curls into a ball," leave me alone, i don't want to talk!"

" so we won't talk, we'll just eat." promises Hyde with a smile.

" promises?" asks Jackie, poking her head out from under her blanket.

Sitting down near Jackie, Hyde hands her a slice of pizza," i promise."

taking a bite from her pizza, Jackie crawls into Hyde's lap," thanks."

" it's cool, don't mention it." assures Hyde, kissing Jackie's forehead.

"...we weren't even broken up a whole week." complains Jackie, burying her face in Hyde's chest.

Glancing down at Jackie, Hyde lets out a tired huff," if it helps, i clocked him for you.

Smiling up at Hyde sadly, Jackie chuckles at the though," you did that for me?"

" well, yeah. He made you cry." confides Hyde, placing a protective arm around Jackie

" awww, thanks Steven Your the best guy a girl could ever know." smiles Jackie, hugging Hyde tight.

Tensing as Jackie pecks his lips, Hyde stares at her dumb-founded," wh-what was that for?"

giving a small shrug, Jackie grabs another slice of pizza," just because i guess. ...Steven, you think I'll find a guy that will promise to love me?"

" of course you will Jacks." assures Hyde, laying back with Jackie

" i hope so." whispers Jackie sadly.

Sitting up in his seat, after a minute Hyde asks," what kind of guy would you go for?"

laying back against Hyde, Jackie plays with his shirt," someone i could just hangout with, and talk about anything or sleep with and not feel obligated to do it. Someone who can make me smile or laugh without even trying, you know that I'll fit against like a puzzle."

" thats it Jacks?" ponders Hyde with a raised eye brow.

" basically, yeah." chuckles Jackie, rubbing at her eyes.

Finishing the last of his pizza, Hyde looks down at Jackie," would you date someone that you knew?"

rubbing at her eyes sleepily, Jackie lets out a tired yawn," what, like Fez?"

" or someone else." grumbles Hyde, now curious.

" what, you mean like you?" question Jackie in a confused manner.

Shifting in his seat, Hyde decides to play it Zen," among others."

biting at her bottom lip, Jackie shrugs her shoulders," i don't know, thats too weird to think about. Your my best friend, we use to take baths together as kids."

" yeah, we should start that up again." teases Hyde with a grin.

" Steven!" yells Jackie, slapping him playfully.

Laughing as Jackie slaps his chest, Hyde just smiles," what? Its a suggestion, damn!"

rolling her eyes at Hyde, Jackie tosses a pillow at him," whatever, can i go to sleep now?"

" yeah, night Jacks." mutters Hyde, getting up to leave.

" whoa, Steven where are you going?" asks Jackie, grabbing his hand.

" I'm letting you go to sleep." informs Hyde, staring at Jackie's hand.

" couldn't you stay?" pleads Jackie with puppy eyes.

" well, yeah i guess." caves Hyde after a few seconds. ...

( a week later; Jackie's date)

" so, i had fun tonight you know." says Jackie's date shyly.

" yeah, i did too Charlie" agrees Jackie with a chuckle.

Touching Jackie's face lightly, Charlie stares down at her," could i take you out some other time?"

with a small nod, Jackie bites her bottom lip nervously," sounds cool with me."

" do you know that your beautiful?" questions Charlie, looking at the ground shyly.

" Charlie..quit it. Your going to make me blush." states Jackie, turning a little red.

Grinning to himself, Charlie presses his forehead against Jackie's," no, its true. You are Jackie, you take my breath away."

chuckling at this, Jackie hugs Charlie's waist," is that so?"

" of course, like right now. I...well I...I want to kiss you." stutters Charlie, glancing down at Jackie

" i wouldn't object to that." confides Jackie, blushing even more.

Raising a curious eye brow, Charlie lifts Jackie's chin," are you sure?"

pecking Charlie on the lips, Jackie gives a small smile," I'm pretty sure."

" wow...you know, your my first kiss." mutters Charlie between lip locks.

" really?" ponders Jackie in a surprised tone.

Giving Jackie a sweet kiss, Charlie merely nods," yeah...well, when i was five i snuck a kiss from this girl i liked. But other then that, yeah."

resting her head on Charlie's shoulder, Jackie nuzzles her face into his neck," well, i am very honored then."

" is that so?" ponders Charlie with a laugh.

" uh , yeah! Your cute, who wouldn't be?" inquires Jackie with a grin.

Laughing at this, Charlie rubs Jackie's cheek with his thump," so, this mean I'll see you again?"

giving Charlie's hand a light squeeze, Jackie smiles at him tiredly," i sure hope so." ... --
