A/N: Sorry this took longer than I expected due to a mild case of writer's block. The next chapter will be the last one and I probably won't get it up for at least a week as i'm working on a little surprize to go with it which will hopefully be worth the wait.
Chapter 6 – Just Tonight
We'll never be the same
Never feel this way again
I'd give you anything but you want pain
A little water please
I taste you all over my teeth
Never again,
Just tonight, ok
The early morning sun in his face woke him up. Jackie was still asleep so he quietly slipped back to his own room and got into bed. A couple hours later there was a knock on his door and Jackie was on the other side.
"Hi, oh I'm sorry did I wake you?"
He rubbed his hand over his face. "No it's OK, how are you feeling?"
"I'll live" she said with a bit of a giggle. "Um last night you agreed to come and look at another apartment with me"
"Yeah, um give me 10 minutes and I'll meet you downstairs"
An hour later they'd had the grand tour and Jackie was in love.
"What do you think Steven?" she said with anticipation.
"It's cool, I think you should take it" giving her his trademark smirk.
She clapped excitedly "Me too, I'm gonna go speak to the landlord"
Luckily for Jackie she was able to move in straight away. Without too much convincing she'd roped in Hyde to help her move and by the next afternoon she had all her stuff crammed in, albeit in no real order. They started to unpack her boxes but with so little room amongst the mess they were constantly brushing up against each other. Hyde was struggling to keep his cool, they had always been so tactile when they were together that feeling her body against his, he was struggling to keep his hands to himself. He sighed in relief when she suggested they take a break and she ordered some food. She grabbed 2 beers from the fridge and they took a seat on the couch. They didn't talk much but kept stealing glances at each other and Hyde could feel the tension start to build. Jackie practically leapt out of her seat when there was a knock at her door. The food had arrived and they arranged everything on the coffee table and sat on the floor. Again they ate in relative silence mostly because when she tried to engage him in conversation all he could see was her supple lips moving, making it very difficult for him to string a coherent sentence together. He watched her tongue skim her bottom lip wishing that it was his. He gulped down the rest of his beer hoping to dull the sensations and it seemed to work temporarily. He calmly finished the rest of his food and he felt like his Zen armor was back in place which since that first summer with Jackie he'd found harder and harder to put up when she was around.
Two months into summer and he was still finding it hard to believe that the majority of it he'd spend sneaking around with Jackie Burkhart. A unicorn loving, pom pom waving, spoiled princess who for some unknown reason he just couldn't keep his hands off. Any time they had while Eric and Fez were otherwise occupied or not working they spent wrapped around each other. Usually they'd go at it in the basement but lately they had been venturing out further. He'd pick her up after work, drive to somewhere private and they'd make out for hours on his flatbed. He'd tried to tell himself it was because the basement was just getting too stuffy but really he wanted as much uninterrupted time with her as possible. He knew eventually Kelso would come back and whatever it was they were doing would cease. They weren't meant to be together, they were just passing the time in the hottest way possible.
He drove her home and she remarked that her dad's car wasn't in the driveway. She invited him in with the enticement of beer and he was seated in her living room within thirty seconds. While she was in the kitchen getting the beer he noticed a note on the coffee table. He handed it to her as she passed him his beer and she read it as he took a swig. Her dad had had to go away on business and with her mom still on vacation it looked like they had the house to themselves. She took a long sip of her beer and settled herself on his lap, straddling him. She threw his glasses over the couch and attacked his lips. For years he couldn't understand why Kelso would keep going back for more but he was now begging to. She was like the most intoxicating drug he ever tried and he'd tried more than a few. Things had just started to really heat up when she pulled away suddenly and gave him her best pouty look.
"Steven, just tonight could you stay with me? I hate being in this house alone"
"Jackie I don't think that's such a good idea" he replied flatly.
"Please Steven" she batted her lashes at him.
"Fine, only if it's just tonight, don't think this is gonna be some regular thing" but he knew as he was saying it he didn't mean it.
She shrugged and continued her assault and he gladly reciprocated. She eventually fell asleep on top of him and he dared to stroke her hair. He knew he was getting in way too deep and feelings were never part of the plan. He'd just assumed it would be a summer thing and that they could stop whenever they wanted but waking up with her entangled on top of him he didn't know if he could stop even if he wanted too.
"Thank you for helping me today" she said with a small smile.
He snapped out of his trance. "Sure, not like I was otherwise occupied" he gave her that sexy smirk, the one that had always made her insides melt.
She hated that he could still elicit that reaction in her. She felt right then that if he were to touch her, anywhere, she wouldn't be able to control herself.
Too late.
He went to pick up her plate and they brushed hands. Next thing she knew she was straddling his lap, nibbling on his ear. Her hands entwined in his curls, the pads of her fingers massaging his scalp. He could feel himself burning up. Her body was flush against his, her lips against his and then she started sucking his tongue. He ran his hands along her back, under her shirt. In one swift movement he had it over her head and across the room. He picked them up, practically running to her bedroom and flinging them both onto the bed. As desperately as he wanted to be inside her he forced himself to slow down. He needed to savor the feeling of her wrapped around him, god it had been so long. His mouth quickly found that spot on her neck and he licked and sucked until he felt her pulse quicken and her body tremble.
She started to grind her hips against his, desperate to feel more of his skin against her own. He'd always been a mind reader when it came to her body and within a minute they were both down to their underwear. She flipped them over, grinding her hips against his even harder making sure he wanted her as much as she wanted him. Bending forward she seared their lips together, tongues dancing and she could hear a low growl build in the back of his throat, it was time. He flipped them over again, shed the last of their clothing and slowly eased himself inside. He stilled for a moment wanting to see in her eyes if she was right there with him. She pressed her forehead to his and that's all it took for him to start up a rhythm. She gripped his shoulders as he increased the pace. When she felt the heat inside her build rapidly she stuck her fingers in his hair, pulling his head down to kiss him hard. He took the cue to slow down and concentrated more on her lips and tongue. His kisses had always made her so hot and she took full advantage. She let him impose his will upon her until she nearly passed out from lack of oxygen. She quickly regained her composure as he took a hold of her hips, repositioning himself for the final stretch home.
He rode the waves faster and faster and she matched his every stroke. He searched her eyes for permission and when it was received he finally surrendered inside her. She screamed his name, quivering beneath him as the remnants of her release washed over her. His forehead connected with hers and he sighed, sated and content. He wanted nothing more than to stay inside her and drift away, but his weight would eventually crush her tiny frame so he reluctantly pulled them apart. He settled for spooning her from behind, hand splayed over her stomach. She rested her hand over his and nuzzled her body to his as close as she could get. Neither knew what morning would bring so both pretended that things were like they use to be. When they would be wrapped up in each other and things made sense, even if it turned out to be for just tonight.
