Chapter Eleven: Tiny Dancer

"Eric we need to talk." Donna said as they entered the hotel room.

"Actually I was hoping there wouldn't be any talking."

"This is important. I think you should sit down."

"Okay." Eric said as he sat on the bed.

"This morning I…uh…I went to the doctor and…I guess there really isn't a better way to say this other than to just say it…I'm pregnant."

Eric looked at Donna. "Um…okay are you joking? I mean is this some kind of burn you and Hyde cooked up just to get me?"

"No Eric this isn't a burn. I wouldn't do that to you. Well I'd burn you but not like this."

"So…wow…this is…" Eric said as Donna sat next to him.

"I know it's earlier than we talked about, but Eric I know we can do this."

Eric looked at her and saw the fear and uncertainty in her eyes. He took her hands in his and smiled at her. "I know we can. I love you Donna and I'm going to love our child."

Donna threw her arms around Eric. "I was so worried you'd be angry."

"Why would I be angry?"

"Because it's so soon Eric."

"Donna…I love you okay…I could never be mad about this." Eric said as he hugged her.

"I love you too Eric." She said as she pulled back and kissed him.


Hyde walked over to the DJ and asked him to play a song for him before he packed up and left. The DJ nodded and Hyde walked over to Jackie, who was quietly helping clean up. Hyde wrapped his arms around her waist and put his face next to her ear.

"Dance with me."

"Steven I have to help clean up."

"Please just one song."

Jackie set the things in her hands down and nodded to Hyde. Hyde led them out on the floor and nodded to the DJ. Hyde wrapped his arms around her as she laid her head on his chest.

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand

"Steven this is Elton John…you hate Elton John."

"Jackie…this was the first song we ever danced to as a real couple."

"Oh Steven…it is."

"I fell in love with you that night Jackie. I was just too stupid to tell you. But I'll never make that mistake again baby. I'll always tell you that I love you…and I'll never stop."

"Steven."

"What?"

"Shut your pie hole."

Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad

Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the songs
The words she knows the tune she hums

But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can hear me
When I say softly slowly

Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
you had a busy day today

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand


"Good Morning Steven." Kitty said as Hyde walked up from the basement the next morning.

"Morning mom, are Forman and Donna here yet?"

"Nope, would you like some breakfast?"

"Sure." Hyde said as he sat next to Red.

"I swear that dumb ass will be late to his own funeral without even trying." Red said as he read his paper.

"Oh Red…hush," Kitty said as the back door opened, "Oh good morning Jackie…and you too Steve."

"Daddy," Steve said as he let go of Jackie's hand, "Mommy says you're gonna live by us."

"That's right. You're going to be seeing a lot more of me son."

"Yea!" Steve shouted as Hyde picked him up and set him on his lap.

"I'm so happy. Everything is working out." Kitty said as she began to cry.

"Oh lord. Steven this is all your fault." Red said as he got up to console his wife.

"Hey you." Jackie said as she smiled at Hyde.

'Hey." He said before she leaned down to kiss him.

"Eww." Steve said as they laughed.

"Hey guys." Donna said as they walked in.

"Oh honey you're here. Are you hungry?" Kitty asked.

"Uh no actually Donna and I have something to tell you." Eric said.

"I'm pregnant." Donna said as Kitty rushed over to her.

"Oh sweetie, Red did you hear that more grandchildren!"

"At least the dumb ass married her this time." Red said as Hyde laughed.

"Congratulations Forman." Hyde said as he set Steve down and shook Eric's hand.

"Thanks man."

"Oh Donna you know I'm happy for you." Jackie said as she hugged her best friend.

"Thanks Jackie." Donna said as she smiled at Eric who smiled right back at her.


Everyone was talking to Donna when Hyde walked over to Jackie. "Can we talk?" Hyde said as Jackie nodded and he led her outside.

"What's up?"

"I have to leave."

"What? But you said…"

"I have to show Randy how to do my job. But it'll only be for two weeks."

"Steven, Steve is so excited. What am I supposed to tell him?"

"That I'll be back, I'm not leaving you Jackie. You're stuck with me doll." Hyde said as he took her face in his hands.

"Two weeks?"

"Only two weeks."

"I'll be counting the days." She said as Hyde kissed her.

"Break it up you two we're leaving." Donna said as they all walked out.


Goodbyes were said and Eric and Donna were gone. Red and Kitty went inside and Hyde quietly asked Jackie if she could get his bag from downstairs while he said goodbye to Steve.

"But you'll be back?"

"I'll be back before you know it."

"But what if I miss you?"

Hyde reached into his jacket and pulled out a tee shirt he had pulled out of his stuff earlier. "Hold onto this whenever you miss me and if that doesn't help you can call me when ever you want."

Steve took the shirt and smiled at Hyde. "Okay. I love you daddy."

Hyde pulled his son into a hug and whispered I love you back to him.

Jackie smiled at Steve as Hyde took his bag from her and pulled her into his arms.

"I love you Jackie."

"I love you too."

"I'll be back." Hyde said as he stared into her eyes.

"I know you will be." Hyde kissed her one last time then got into his car and left.

"Mommy look at what dad gave me." Jackie looked down at the shirt that Hyde had given Steve. It was his second favorite shirt…the Rolling Stones one he had worn the night she thought she lost him forever.

"What did he give that to you for?"

"He said that whenever I miss him to hold it."

"He did, did he?"

"Yeah, Mommy do you miss him?"

"Yeah honey I do. What do you say we go home?"

"Okay." Steve said as he took his mother's hand and they walked back to Donna's house.
