Jackie fidgeted back and forth on her feet under Kitty's withering glare. "Ladies room!" she said quickly, rushing back in.
Kitty folded her arms, looking at Red and Hyde.
"Ahh, aw, hell, Kitty... hey, what's say on the way home we stop by the jewelrey store?" Red asked hopefully.
Hyde raised his eyebrows, but Kitty's face softened.
"Oh, Red... I did have my eye on this little bracelet... You big softy..." she smiled shyly, putting her palms on his chest.
When Red's arms went around her waist, Hyde thought maybe it was best to give them a minute or two alone, and went to go find Jackie. Besides, the idea of her alone in there made him nervous. When he'd left her with Kitty, he wasn't worried, but...
His jaw clenched when he saw her, standing just outside of the ladies' room, three guys seemingly blocking her path. Her eyes were big and nervous, like a deer in the headlights. He growled, making his way over.
"C'mon, baby... just relax..." he heard one say, and then saw a hand reach out.
Hyde clamped a strong hand on that wrist, just before the fingers could touch his girl.
"Seriously?" he asked the guy. "You think you're gonna touch my chick, man?"
"We're just talkin' to the lady; back off, kid." one of the shocked man's friends interjected.
Hyde let go, stepping protectively in front of Jackie. "Dude, consider yourself lucky you didn't actually touch her, okay? Now, get gone."
"You're awfully defensive of the little cock-tease, aren't you?" the man sneered, and Hyde reached out and punched him in the jaw, just as hard as he'd punched Chip.
When the other two men saw their friend on the ground, out cold, they backed up a bit.
"I'd get him out of here." Hyde advised, and took Jackie by the hand, leading her out.
When they got to the parking lot, they saw the car bouncing up and down a bit.
"Eeew, are Mr. and Mrs. Foreman proving their love in your car?" she asked, horrified.
Hyde winced. "Good thing I bought leather cleaner in there..." he said distastefully.
Jackie nodded, then threw her arms around his neck, and kissed him soundly. Hyde wrapped an arm around her waist, smiling down at her.
"What was that for?"
"I love you... and, plus, that was so hot back there... Like Superman or Tarzan!" she gushed.
Hyde looked around, and saw a mustang convertible close by. He picked Jackie up, causing her to squeal slightly, and jumped into the backseat with her. "Me Hyde, you hot." he grunted in Tarzan speak, smirking at her.
Jackie laughed, pulling him down to her for a deep, passionate kiss...
