Chapter 3: When the Truth Comes Out Everyone Runs!

"Umm I have to uh go check something." Donna said as she started for the door.

"Yeah I have to go help her with that." Eric said as he put Steve on the couch and walked to the door.

"I'll go with you too." Kitty said as she followed them out.

Hyde glared at Kelso till he finally got the hint and left with the others.

"Steven we need to talk."

"Jackie there's nothing left to say. I saw everything."

"God, Steven will you shut up! You wouldn't even let me explain. Nothing happened with Michael. He came onto me, but I said no."

"Why?"

"Because I loved you and I wouldn't do that to you."

"No Jackie if you loved me so much you wouldn't have given me a fucking ultimatum."

"Steven I'm sorry. I was so dumb; I just didn't want to lose you. But I did anyway."

"Jackie you weren't losing me. I loved you, you knew that."

"No I didn't. Steven you never said it to me. The only time was after that nurse."

"I said it after that."

"When did you say?"

"Damn it woman I'm not going to answer that you knew I loved you."

"Damn it Steven you have to tell someone that you love them. They can't just assume that you do for the rest of their fucking life." Jackie said as she grew frustrated.

It was then that Hyde noticed the little boy behind Jackie who had tears in his big blue eyes.

'Wait big blue eyes?' Hyde thought. "Jackie the kid is crying."

Jackie turned around and knelt in front of him.

"Mommy please don't yell anymore." The little boy cried as Jackie pulled him to her.

"Jackie he's your son?"

Jackie turned around and glared at him as she picked Steve up.

"Yes and if you had any common sense at all you'd see that he's your son too."

"What? He's my son?" Hyde felt like he'd been punched in the gut. "Jackie, why didn't you tell me?"

"I tried…hell everyone tired. They tried to tell you when you came for new years…Donna called you every night for a month. Steven I've called you once a week for the past 3 years. But you've never once returned my phone calls."

All the calls…all the conversations where her name came up…all the messages, Hyde closed his eyes as everything hit him. "Jackie I don't know…god I just don't know. I'm so sorry Jackie."

"Steven I just can't…" Jackie said as she began to walk to the door.

"What's his name?"

"Steven."

"Why?"

"Because I wanted everyone to know who his dad was even though he didn't know."

"Jackie I-"

"Look I have to go back to Donna's. We'll talk later." And with that she was gone.

Hyde sat down in Red's chair and stared at the wall. "I have a son."

Jackie kissed Steve's forehead then closed the door behind her and headed to Donna's old room. "Hey." She said as she opened and closed the door.

"Did you get him to sleep?"

"Yeah thanks again for letting me use Tina's old room."

"No problem. So do you want to talk about it?" Donna asked as Jackie sat on the edge of the bed.

"He doesn't get it. He wouldn't listen to me and he made Steven cry."

"What wasn't he listening to you about?"

"He wasn't listening to me when I told him about really happened in Chicago."

"Oh yeah…you know Kelso said Hyde really beat him up in the basement before they came upstairs."

"Really…well that's good. God It's so typical of Steven though. He's so damn cocky. Why can't he just drop the Zen shit and just listen to me for a minute. Why does he have to put up walls that are impossible to get around? Why can't he just open up and say how he is really feeling."

"Well he is the Zen master."

"My ass, behind those sunglasses is a scared little boy. I should know I've seen it before."

"Really…who'd of thought? So what did he say about Stevie?"

"Nothing really…I was so mad I just sort of blurted it out, but I guess we're going to talk later."

"That's good."

"Is it? Donna I'm so mad at him, but at the same time all I want is for him to just wrap his arms around me and tell me that everything is going to be fine."

"Jackie…"

"Listen I know you want to help, but I just need to be alone. So I'll be with Stevie."

"Okay, but Jackie," Donna said as Jackie turned around, "I'll be here when you need to talk."

Jackie nodded then left the room.

Hyde stared at the ceiling as he tried to sleep. He finally gave up and decided to go watch T.V. He walked out of his room and stopped when he saw Eric. "Hey." Hyde said as he went to his chair.

"Hey. Did I wake you?" Eric asked.

"No I couldn't sleep." Hyde said as he propped his feet up. "Hey can I ask you something Forman?"

"Sure."

"Did you know he was mine?"

"Yeah…we all knew. She came back the night after you left. She told mom and mom told Donna."

Hyde sighed. "How come you never told me?"

"I wanted to. But I saw how you reacted when everyone else tried so I just let it go."

"You know I always just assumed that their calls were about how I should take her back. I never thought-"

"Man it's not your fault."

"Forman if I'd just listened to one of you for five seconds he would have had me."

"Hyde you had every right to ignore her. You thought she'd slept with Kelso."

"Damn it that's just not a good enough excuse. I feel like shit knowing what I put them through. You want to know the most ironic thing in all of this shit?" Eric stared at Hyde as he waited for his friend to continue. "A part of me knew she was pregnant that night." Hyde said before he got up and left.

Jackie closed the door to Tina's room and headed outside. She needed to go to her quiet place. It was the once place in this tiny ass town where she could think. After asking Donna to watch Stevie she got in her car and headed to the clearing in the woods. She parked her car, got out and started walking when she noticed someone up ahead. Jackie walked a little closer till she realized who it was. "Steven?"
