Chapter 2- Jackie
Disclaimer I do not own that 70s show or picture by kid rock and Sheryl Crow
I called you last night in the hotel
Everyone knows but they won't tell
But their half-hearted smiles tell me
Somethin' just ain't right
I've been waiting on you for a long time
Filling up on heartaches and cheap wine
I ain't heard from you in three damn nights
After Jackie found out about the 'nurse incident' she was devastated she expected Kelso to cheat on her and humiliate her but not Steven. He was different, he was the one who would always tell her she deserved better than Kelso and all the other cheaters that were out there but he went and did the same. Both Kelso and Hyde tried desperately to get her back and even though she loved Hyde with all her heart, she chose Kelso. Her reason for choosing Kelso was not that she loved him, no she chose Kelso because she knew if he did anything stupid like cheat on her it wouldn't hurt her because she wasn't in love with him and even though she knew that it was the stupid choice to make she did it. However, it broke her heart more to do so especially when she looked into Hyde's eyes before she said her choice him silently pleading with her to choose him, her silently pleading with him to understand. Not too soon after Hyde left and Jackie's heart broke even more if that was possible, however, she knew that this was probably for the best there was no way she would be able to forget him with him still hanging around. However about two months after he left Jackie wished he was still there as she needed him then more than anything….
Flashback three years before, 2 months after celebration day…
"Ok Donna! Is that been 15 minutes yet?"
"Yeah it has!" Donna looked sympathetically at her best friend she had been through a lot with her Dad, Hyde, then there was Kelso running away with Laurie about 2 weeks after she choose him and now this there was only so much one person take could she only hoped Jackie was strong enough to get through this. Jackie's sobbing brought her out of her daze "what does it say?"
"It's positive Donna…I'm pregnant, oh my god what am I gonna do?"
"Jackie you have to tell Hyde. He would want to know, assuming that he is the father… He is the father right please don't tell me it's Kelso's cause no offense but that is just…. I don't know what it is but it's not good"
"Of course Steven is the father. Kelso and me didn't do anything when we got back together he was too busy screwing Laurie or Pam Macy. But anyway I can't tell Steven he has moved on and got his new life and future now, I can't ruin that for him. I will have to do this on my own!"
"You won't be on your own Jackie me; Eric; my dad and the Formans will all be here for you and help you. You will not have to do this alone."
Although Jackie believed that her friends would be there for her as much as possible she knew that she would be truly doing this on her own. At first she thought this would scare her but Jackie thought about what she was gaining someone who will love unconditionally, someone who would love her and not cheat on her.
End Flashback.
Six months later Jackie gave birth to a little girl, she called her Penny lane, which brought a smile to Eric as he always said that the four boys were kinda like 'The Beatles'. She of course didn't go back to Point Place High after she discovered she was pregnant instead Jackie enrolled in community college doing a course in design and planning. After she graduated from this course she got snapped up from this woman who was starting her own business as a wedding planner however, she wasn't really good at planning the wedding just the business. Jackie took the job as it was good money but she help but see the irony that she would be planning other people's weddings and probably never her own. Jackie sat in Laurie's old room, she moved in with the Forman's after she found out she was pregnant as Kitty insisted she wanted to take care of her, she was drawing sketches and plans for a client that she was meeting in the morning when she heard Red honk is horn outside. She checked on Penny and noticed she was stirring in her sleep, once she was sure Penny was settled she checked her watched and noticed that she was supposed to meet Donna in the Hub in 15 minutes to discuss her and Eric's wedding. She went down stairs to let Kitty and red know that she was going and that Penny was settled she vaguely heard another voice with them in the kitchen but proceeded on through not really noticing who it was until it was too late.
"Mr. and Mrs. Forman that's…Steven?"

I can't look at you while I'm lying next to him
