A week later Hyde's letter arrived. Jackie didn't even want to read the letter but Eric insisted she read it. Jackie was pissed after reading the letter. She saw it as an attempt to get her back. She wished she could go down in that basement and bitch slap those damn glasses off his face.

Eric managed to calm Jackie down. She was safe from him or as Eric saw it he was safe from her. Jackie decided instead of calling this time, she was going to write back.

Dear Hyde,

I forgive you for how you treated me. You have always reacted badly to issues. I am not coming home yet. I am happy where I am and NO I WILL NOT TELL YOU! I am not going to take you back either. That is exactly what your letter was, an attempt to get me back. I am moving on with my life and I suggest you do the same. We may one day be friends again but it will take time. I am glad you are trying to make yourself better.

Jackie

Jackie let Eric read the letter. He made suggestions but Jackie insisted she would not change a word. She knew how to get her point across with Hyde. She would never call him Steven again. He was just a friend now.

A little over a week later, Hyde was handed Jackie's letter. Red had explained in order to keep her privacy all the envelopes are burned with her address on them. She wanted no one to know where she was.

Hyde read the letter and was even madder than he had been before. Jackie knew him better than he thought she did. He wanted to get her back even more now. She wanted to play that game he sure would.

Dear Jackie,

I am sorry I hurt you that much. I would love to be your friend. I wish hadn't said those spiteful things to you. I can't take back what I said. I know you forgave me for that but I haven't forgiven myself. I may never forgive myself. You were the best thing that could have happen to me and I went and messed that up. I talked to Fez today and he is mad at you for leaving and not telling him. You never even wrote him to tell him you are ok. Kelso said you called his house a couple times.

Steven

Hyde read the letter again and thought it was a piece of art. Soon Jackie would come home and he would turn his charms on her. His cot was cold without a girl to share it with. There was a commotion upstairs and he had to know what it was.

Red was sitting in his chair with Kitty sitting on the couch. Red heard Steven come up the stairs. He gave Red the sealed envelope to mail Jackie.

Red took the letter and said "Steven sit down. We just got some news and you need to tell you."

Steven sat down and waited to be told he was being kicked out or something. Red continued "Steven, there is no good way to say this so I will just tell you. The highway patrol was just here. WB and your sister were on their way here to see you. They got hit but a drunk driver in a dump truck. They didn't make it. I am sorry son!"

Steven Hyde was in shock. His real dad was dead. His mom had left him. He had no one in this world. God what a shitty day this was. Kitty didn't let him sit in a bad mood too long. She pulled him into a hug and said "Steven, we both love you and will always be here for you!"

Kitty was worried about Steven. He had been improving so much lately but now he was darker again. She had to fix this and make Steven happier again. But How? The happiest she had ever seen Steven was when he was dating Jackie. Kitty decided to write Jackie.

Dear Jackie,

I hate to write you. Steven has suffered a rough lost. WB and Angie were killed by a drunk driver today. He was just starting to get to a better place. Please come home and help me keep him from going to that dark place again. Jackie I wouldn't ask this but you were the only one to make him smile.

Love,

Kitty

When the mail arrived Jackie read Hyde's letter first. She knew what he was doing. He was trying to make her feel guilty about leaving. Why was he trying to get her back? Jackie had decided she was not going back without Eric. She was in love with him. She wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. She wanted to have his children and raise them together. If you had told her eight months ago that she would be with Eric and dreaming of having his children.

Jackie read Kitty's letter next. She felt her stomach drop. She cared for Hyde and didn't want bad things to happen to him but she was not going back. She showed Eric. Eric was happy Jackie wasn't leaving but he was worried about his friend. They decided to call home.
