Hey thanks for the reviews everyone. You had some great advice and I'm going to try it out.
He looked at her with disbelief, "Are you sure your talking about my son here, because my son isn't that nice.
"Yes I'm talking about your son; he said something about you probably would mention it, so he offered. I don't see why that's so hard to believe", Says Jackie looking at him like he's a little crazy.
"Well it's just that doesn't seem like something he'd do that's all." He thinks for a moment. "Okay fine she can stay with me but not for more than a month alright?"
She jumps up and down like her old self and hugs him. "Oh thank you so much Steven you don't know how much this means to me." She let's go but not before she gives him a light kiss on the cheek. Then she runs to the basement to tell jasmine.
He stands there for a minute. For some reason he really missed that kind of stuff she did. Then as quickly as the thought came to mind he brushed it off. Then sat down on the couch to watch some TV.

(The next day, the front of the Hyde household.)
Jackie is standing in front of a parked cab Hyde's getting jasmine's stuff from the back. She is talking to jasmine. "Okay so I'll try to come back and visit as much as I can okay and behave, I'll see you soon." They hug. Jasmine speaks "Okay bye mom." She goes and walks into the house, Jackie watches her from behind Hyde walks up to her
"She'll be fine don't worry, she's with me okay nothing to worry about."
"Well I guess you're right, thank you again Steven I don't know how I'll ever repay you."
I could think of a few ways. "Don't worry about it, it's no big deal".
"Of course it is, giving her a place to stay is a big deal and don't try to deny it, I'll figure out a way sooner or later."
"Okay if you insist, have a safe trip see ya soon."
"Thank you bye." She gives him a quick hug before getting in the taxi. It drives off as he heads in the house.

(Hyde residence, the next morning. They are all eating breakfast at the kitchen table.)
Hyde speaks first, "so jasmine how did you sleep last night, did you like the room, was the bed comfortable?"
"Oh a, I slept fine, the rooms nice, and the bed is very comfortable. Thanks for asking"
"Your mom called a little after you went to bed, she said she made it there safe and sound and plans on coming here in about a week the first load of your belongings."
"oh okay, next time she calls if I'm here I want to talk to her okay even if I am in my room"
"Okay I just didn't want to wake you that's all."
"Oh I know that's just for next time."
"Okay."
Steven and jasmine get up from the table and leave together to go to see Danny and Erica and maybe Mitchell if he's still here.
---------------------------------------------
(The basement at the formans 20 minutes later)
Steven and jasmine come through the side door and see Erica and Danny on the couch watching TV. Steven goes and sits in his usual chair and jasmine sits next to Erica.
Erica speaks first "hey guys. So jasmine how was your first night in point place?"
"Well I ate dinner, watched some TV, read a magazine, then went to bed."
"Oh well that sounds exciting."
Steven speaks "Ya it was probably the most boring night of my life. I had to stay there and help her unpack then we couldn't come here because he wasn't going to be able to pick us up and he didn't Jasmine here to have to walk home, even though I walk home every night!"
Jasmine obviously pissed off at what he said fights back at the statement, "HEY, don't go blaming this on me it's not my fault you couldn't go out it's your dad's and I wanted to come here or anywhere for that matter then sit there and watch you scowl at me the whole night!" she finishes in a huff.
Erica whispers to Danny, "Oh my god they are exactly like their parents!"
"I know, things will definitely get better down here with them two always at each others throats!" he ends the sentence with a little laugh. They're still bickering in the background.
"Of course it's your fault, if you weren't here I would've been able to go out and do something fun, other then sitting home with you and watch you pout!"
"Well if it's such a burden to have me here then why did you offer for me to say at your house in the first place!" her voice rising with rage.
"You know what I was just thinking the same thing your just a spoiled good for nothing brat that get's whatever you want as long as mommy says yes!"
She looks at him, almost ready to cry "Fine, I'll just get out of your way then." She says in a tone a little higher than a whisper. She was always able to hold back tears better than her mother but that, that felt like a stab to the heart. She got up; streams of tears already flowing down her cheeks, and storms out the door.
Erica gets up and tries to go find jasmine before she gets to far, but before going through the door she turns to Steven and says, "You know Hyde you can be so freakin' cruel sometimes!" then she leaves the to boys who sit there in silence.
Well that was chapter 2. how'd you like it? i think i'm starting to the hang of this. If you have any advice or comments tell me i will definetly put them into consideration. please review. THANK YOU!
