Authors Note: Wow, i got this out sooner than i thought i would. If you didnt catch the authors note i posted earlier today then here's the jist. I need some ideas and i had to answer some questions so check it out. Go to my youtube channel, it's under dreamgirl0922. So this chapter has an old friend in it. That should make some of you VERY happy. Thank you guys so much for reviewing once again. I have three constant reviewers so i'm pretty happy about that. The three songs in this are, 'Who Knew' by Pink, 'Where You Are' by Jessica Simpson with Nick Lachey, and 'Forever' by Papa Roach. Let me know what you guys think. Sorry it's been so long on the update. I couldnt find a good song to do as a duet then i remembered that old Jessica Simpson song and i thought what the hell Jackie can go through a pop faze. All of which is explained in this chapter. So enjoy. And as always please review, and check out my new youtube videos.
Disclaimer: I own nothing...just the idea.
Point Place Rock Stars:
Chapter Nine: Where You Are
"Alright so I'm going to go check out that mall we saw a little while ago." Jackie said as she got off the tour bus.
"Alright well just be back here around 2." Jackie's assistant, Marissa said as Jackie smiled at and walked away with her bodyguard in tow.
"Where's she going?" Hyde asked as he watched Jackie walk away.
"Mall, aren't you guys practicing first anyway?" Marissa asked.
"Yeah, we are." Hyde said as he walked away.
Marissa shook her head then followed Hyde inside.
Jackie was looking through the different racks trying to find the perfect outfit to make Hyde drool when she felt someone brush up against her.
"Excuse you," She said as she turned around and suddenly stopped breathing. "Fez?"
Fez gave Jackie a small smile as he apologized for running into her. "Hi Jackie."
"What are you doing here?"
"I live here."
"You live in the mall?" Jackie asked as Fez gave her a curious look. "Sorry I'm really tired."
"It's alright. No I live a few blocks away. I'm just getting something for my wife."
"Oh…wait you have a wife…you're married?"
"Yes, I've been married for quite some time. Would you like to meet her?"
"I'd love to." Jackie said as she followed Fez to the counter.
"This is it. My dream home…well maybe not my dream home, but it's where I'm the happiest." Fez said as he led Jackie inside. "Marsha I'm back." Fez called as he led Jackie into the living room.
"Oh good," Marsha said as she walked out, but stopped in her tracks when she saw Jackie. "Oh hello."
"Hi, I'm Jackie…an old friend of Fez's."
"Oh yeah, he's told me a lot about you. He says you're a talented singer."
"Thanks. Yeah I'm doing my own solo thing now."
"I didn't know that." Fez said as he came up behind Marsha and took her hand.
"Yeah actually I'm on tour with the high right now?"
"You're on tour with Hyde?" Fez said as Marsha turned to him.
"Is that bad honey?"
"Well um…" Fez said as he quickly looked at Jackie for help.
"It use to be. See I use to be with our friend Hyde."
"Oh yeah I knew that. Fez said something about you being with someone else."
"Yeah, I sort of cheated on him…with our friend Michael."
"Yeah I told her all of that Jackie."
"Well Michael told the guy who replaced Fez and Steven overheard him. So after that happened I was kicked out of the band."
"Yeah that's what Eric said. But he never told me where you went."
"Oh well that's easy." Jackie said.
2005- Eric and Donna's Wedding Reception
"Jackie, listen can I talk to you for minute?" Eric asked as he ran up to catch Jackie.
"Eric I really need to go. I've been around Steven long enough. I cant do it anymore."
"Jackie listen we need a manager."
"What happened to Tim?"
"He quit. Look we need someone and you know this band backwards and forwards. Please will you help us out? Please we really need you Jackie."
Jackie stared at Eric as she thought about it. "Alright, I'll help you…for a while."
"Thank you Jackie." Eric said as he hugged her.
"But only for a while. I don't think I can handle being around Steven that long."
"That's fine, just until we find someone else." Eric said as Jackie nodded then walked away.
2008-
"So you became the manager?" Fez asked from his spot on the couch beside Marsha.
"Yeah, I did everything for them. I booked concerts, and put together their last big tour before Steven's big accident."
"Then what happened?" Marsha asked.
"Then I left…you see I had this big chance to become something I've always dreamed of…and a chance to change the world or at least inspire people with my music. But Steven got hurt, and I gave it up because I thought he needed me. Only I found out that same night that he didn't. He told me to go and live my dreams. So I did, and my dreams led me back to him."
"You're still in love with him aren't you?" Fez asked.
"I'll always be in love with him." Jackie said with a smile, "So you never told me how you ended up here?"
"Well I was living in Chicago until Kelso came home. He moved out there from Point Place once he'd found out that I wasn't living there anymore. I wanted to get away from the band, not have it follow me. So after a few months of living with him and seeing the constant train of women coming through the door I decided to move. I got a job at a bar down here through some old friends I met along the road. And it was at the bar that I met Marsha. We got married a few months later and well…here we are." Fez said as he smiled at his wife.
"That's great…umm Fez."
"Yeah?"
"There's something I need to say to you."
"I'm so sorry for how I acted the last night you were there. You were right. He needed to know. He deserved to know and I didn't tell him. He trusted me and I let him down."
"Jackie…I have never forgotten what happened nor have I forgotten how you acted after that happened and how you treated all of us. You were my friend and you disappointed me."
"I know I did. And I will never be able to forgive myself for it." Jackie said as she stood up. "Anyway I have to go, but we're playing at a club tonight and I want you to come." Jackie said as she pulled two tickets out of her purse and handed them to Fez. "Please come, see what we've been doing. Come see how much I've changed."
"Jackie, I can't guarantee that I'll come…there's a lot of pain there…and things I'll never forget."
"It's alright if you don't…I understand because I'll never forget it either." Jackie said as she smiled at Fez one last time then walked out the door.
"Hey you're back." Hyde said as Jackie walked over to him.
"Yeah, ran into someone I knew."
"Really? Anyone I know?"
"Actually yeah, I ran into Fez."
"Really? Out here?"
"Yeah, I just met him and his wife. They might be coming tonight."
"Oh so you met Marsha. I've heard about her but we haven't really seen Fez since he left. So I haven't met her yet. So what did you talk about?"
"We talked about why he left. Steven, do you know why he left? I mean the real reason?"
"Jackie, Fez told me the real reason 2 months after I found out. He said he couldn't handle keeping your little secret. The way he sounded…the things he said…Jackie…I get why he left."
"I did too…and I'll never forgive myself for the way I treated him…or you."
"But what if we forgave you?"
"It wouldn't matter," Jackie said as she wiped a tear from her eye, "Anyway so how was sound check?"
"Uh good, you're up in about 15."
"Okay," Jackie said as she started to walk away, "Hey Steven,"
Hyde turned and looked at her. "Yeah?"
"I'm really sorry…for everything."
"It's alright Jacks. I promise everything is alright." Hyde said with a smile before he walked away.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I'd like to introduce the only girl I know who has 48 matching outfits including the shoes…Jackie Burkhart." Eric said as he smile at Jackie who laughed at him.
"Welcome…wow you guys are a loud crowd tonight…but hey the louder the better. Alright so lets start tonight off with the newest single off my album, it's called Who Knew."
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no
No no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
For they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong and
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew
Jackie bowed as the crowd cheered, "Alright you guys ready for the next one. Alright this is an old song and it's kind of cheesy. I wrote it back in 2005 and I've never performed it for anyone other than my friends. So I'd like to ask Hyde if he'll come out here and sing it with me." Jackie said as she looked back stage at Hyde who was shaking his head. "Awe come on Hyde, please." Jackie said as the crowd pleaded until Hyde finally walked out carrying a microphone."
"You owe me for this." He said as Jackie quickly hugged him.
"Alright let's do this." Jackie said as the music began playing. (A/N: Jackie is the italics, Hyde is the bold and together they are both.)
There are times
I swear I know your here
When I forgot about my fears
Feeling you my dear
Watching over me
My hope sees
Of what the future will bring
When you ride me on your wings
And take me...
Where you are
Where you and I will breathe together
Once again will be dancing in the moonlight
Just like we used to do
And you'll be smiling back at me
Only then will I be free
When I can be where you are
And I can see your face
Your kiss I still can taste
Not a memory erased
Oh I see your star
Shining down on me
And I'd do anything
If I could just be right there
Where you are
Where you and I will breathe together
Once again will be dancing in the moonlight
Just like we used to do
And you'll be smiling back at me
Only then will I be free
When I can be where you are
Now baby there are times when selfishly
I wish that you are here with me
So I can wipe the tears from your eyes and make you see
That every night while you are dreaming
I'm here to guard you from a far
And anytime I feel alone I'll close my eyes and just be there where you are
Where you are
Where you and I will breathe together
Once again will be dancing in the moonlight
Just like we used to do
And you'll be smiling back at me
Only then will I be free
When I can be where you are
Baby, I still believe
I still believe, I will touch you that sweet day
That you take me there, where you are
I still believe, oh got to believe
I still believe, I will touch you that sweet day
That you take me there, where you are
I still believe
I've got to believe
I'll always be waiting here
That sweet day...
"Wow," Travis said as he stared at Jackie and Hyde who were smiling at each other and talking to the crowd.
"What?" Eric said as he looked at Travis.
"Even after everything, they still have the kind of chemistry together that could set a building on fire." He said before he walked away.
Eric looked at his brother as a frown appeared on his face.
"Thank you so much guys. You've been wonderful. We're going to take a little break so that the guys can set up. In a few minutes the high will be on stage. Thanks again." Jackie said before she walked off the stage.
"I can't believe you made me do that."
"Oh I didn't make you do anything Steven. You did it because you wanted to." Jackie said as Hyde glared at her. "I just can't believe you remembered the words."
"Yeah well kind of hard to forget them when you're permanently lodged in your brain."
"I didn't practice it that much."
"Oh please that song was back when you were trying to be a pop singer and back then you use to practice your music twenty four seven." Hyde said as Jackie glared at him.
"Hey Hyde we're ready." Eric said as Hyde nodded then followed his brother.
"Hey Steven," Jackie said as Hyde quickly looked back at her, "Good luck."
Hyde smiled then walked away.
Hyde wiped the sweat off his forehead as he looked at his brother for the cue for the next song. "Alright so this next one is called forever, and it's a song that was written last year when I was going through a bit of a rough time, and it's one of our more truthful songs in my opinion. Anyways here it is." Hyde said as Eric began playing the drums and Travis began playing his guitar.
In the brightest hour of my darkest day
I realized what is wrong with me
can't get over you. can't get through to you
It's been a helter-skelter romance from the start
Take these memories that are Haunting me
Of a paper man cut into shreds by his own pair of scissors
He'll never forgive her...he'll never forgive her...
Because days come and go but my feelings for you are forever
Because days come and go but my feelings for you are forever
Sitting by a fire on a lonely night
Hanging over from another good time
With another girl... little dirty girl
You should listen to this story of a life
You're my heroine-in this moment I'm lonely fulfilling my darkest dreams
All these drugs all these women
I'm never forgiven... this broken heart of mine
Because days come and go but my feelings for you are forever,
Because days come and go but my feelings for you are forever
One last kiss,
before I go
Dry your tears,
it is time to let you go
One last kiss (one last kiss)
Before I go (before I go)
Dry your tears (dry your tears)
It is Time to let you go
Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
Because days come and go, but my feelings for you are forever
One last kiss (one last kiss)
Before I go (before I go)
Dry your tears (dry your tears)
It is time to let you go
One last kiss,
Before I go,
Dry your tears,
it is time to let you go,
One last kiss
Jackie stared at him as he turned and looked at her. She knew how truthful that song really was and how lost he had gotten after she'd broken him. She smiled at him and nodded as he turned back to the crowd.
"You know it sounds like he still loves you." Jackie spun around and smiled when she saw Fez standing there.
"You came…wait where's Marsha?"
"I left her at home. It isn't a good idea to bring a pregnant woman to a concert."
"Yeah that's true…wait she's pregnant? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I didn't know. Remember how excited she sounded when I got home?"
"Yeah."
"That's why. She was going to tell me but with you there she didn't have a chance."
"Well congratulations Fez. I'm so excited for you."
"Listen I'm actually taking off."
"But what about Steven?"
"I'll see him another time. He sounds a lot better by the way."
Jackie quickly turned and looked at Hyde who was singing on the stage. "Yeah he does."
"He loves you…I can tell and from what I saw earlier you still love him too."
"I do I told you that."
"No I mean you still really love him. It'll work itself out Jackie. As for us…we're fine."
"But Fez I was so mean to you."
"It's forgotten Jackie. You're one of my best friends. I forgave you a long time ago…I just didn't realize it till tonight."
"Oh Fez," Jackie said as she hugged her old friend before he let go of her.
"I have to go. Just one last thing,"
"Yeah?"
"Don't hurt him again."
"Oh I don't intend to." Jackie said as Fez nodded then walked away.
