Disclaimers: I do not own that 70's show

Summary: Lets say Kelso didn't find out about Jackie and Hyde for a long time, and gives him 2 choices, break up with Jackie, or there friendship is history. AU takes place during heart breaker.

He couldn't believe it; his best since they were 5 had dogged him by messing around with his ex girlfriend and nearly ex fiancé. Sure he had left her when she had wanted to get married by running to California with her Best friend, (who wouldn't give him any action by the way) and sure he had picked up a few chicks but they didn't mean anything to him. Jackie was the love of his life and when he finally hoped that they could patch things up like they usually did, he found out she was with Hyde and it had been going on for almost a year now!

Sure he was pretty stupid but it didn't matter to him cause he was what's called "man pretty" so he didn't need brains for that, but that fact that they had been sneaking around him for 10 months was outrageous. Now that he had found out, Hyde was right in front of him, Apologizing? Saying it wasn't planned. Then why didn't he stop it before anything happened!

He loved Jackie and was still in love with her, but she was with his best friend now, he could feel the tears coming to his eyes, not just because Jackie was with someone else, but because his friend had betrayed him and he was to shocked to think of anything.

Swallowing the lump in his throat, he looked at Hyde straight in the eyes and said the only thing he could think of

" End it with her"

Hyde's eyes widened a bit, not to sure if he heard the words correctly as they had came out as a choke, taking a step back he looked around the room. An awkward silence filled it as Donna and Fez were now looking at him for an answer. Looking back at Kelso he noted how he was ready to pound his face in, why didn't he do that instead of what he wanted him to do? His mouth felt dry but managed to speak.

"What?"

Kelso moved forward, but even though he was a few inches taller, Hyde didn't budge, that came along with being Zen, not being scared.

" You heard me, end it with her, or our friendship is history"

His eyes still looked watery but he no longer care, he was determined to get an answer out of him, he was a little scared that he would pick Jackie, on account of he really didn't want to lose Hyde as a friend, and if he did then he wouldn't have another shot with Jackie.

When he noticed Hyde was struggling for answer he spoke for him.

" Well Hyde, my friendship or Jackie?

Now Kelso was really scared, why did he give Hyde those choices, maybe he wanted to look big? He wasn't sure, but he knew that he couldn't take them back now.

Donna looked back and forth between the to, she had never seen Kelso look so hurt and serious, adjusting her uniform, she glanced at Fez who was busy sucking on his orange popsicle and rolled her eyes, he really knew how to put out the mood. She still couldn't believe that Hyde and Jackie had been together 10 months and Kelso had not found out until now, They would be graduating in just a few weeks and her and Eric would be moving away to Madison but even from the far distance she had hopped they would all stay friends but now she wasn't so sure any more, one wrong move by Hyde would tare the group apart, so she silently hopped he would make the right choice.

After a lot of thought, Hyde cleared his throat, it was rather this or his friend, him and Jackie had become close but was he willing to sacrifice 13 years of being friends with Kelso for her? But then images of her and the way she would kiss him and they way she smelt entered his head and everything else about the little pixie, Dammit! He had become attached! And he was Steven Hyde, and Steven Hyde cared for no one, especially, bossy little rich cheerleaders.

Now ready to make his choice he said what he thought was the right answer.

" Fine, I'll end it with her"

He had said it so Zen that it was so believable and sounded like he didn't even care really, it sounded like the old Hyde before him and Jackie had gotten involved in the summer that it made Donna sigh, he seemed so different yet the same when him and Jackie were fooling around her and Eric. Looking to Hyde again she noticed his shoulders slump when Kelso spoke again.

" Thank you, end it with her today then"

Watching him off Zen for a moment, she really wondered if he made the right choice.

That's it for chapter one, sorry if Kelso seemed a bit OOC but its just the way he seemed to me when he had found out. Please R&R
