Chapter 3: Trying to get Jackie to admit.

Place: Pinciotti Living Room

Donna rushed down the stairs with the diary and entered the Pinciotti Living Room to see Hyde, Kelso and Fez still sitting on the couch drinking beer.

Donna ran up behind the three guys and loudly said, "I KNOW WHY…"

"Ahhhhh!" Fez screamed like a little girl. The whole gang looked oddly at Fez as he screamed.

Then as soon as Fez was done screaming, he said, "Don't scare me like that!"

Hyde shook his head and said, "Now that Pippy Longstocking is done squealing, will you tell us what is so important, Donna?"

Donna got excited again and said, "I know why Jackie has been acting differently!"

The guys all said, "What?"

Donna gave the diary to Hyde and said, "Here, read the first page."

The guys read the diary and each of them had shocked expressions after reading the diary.

Hyde said, "Now it all makes sense."

Kelso said, "Jackie is in love."

Fez said, "But with who?"

Donna smiled and said, "I have an idea who."

Eric walked into the room and said, "Say guys do you have any more salsa… Hey, what are you guys looking at?"

Donna gave Eric the diary to read, and as he read it, Eric got the same expression as the guys did.

Eric said, "Wait a minute it all makes sense now. The whole reason Jackie has been nice to RANDY and me, how she wants to hang out with RANDY and me."

Kelso starts chuckling obnoxiously.

Hyde looks at Kelso and says, "You don't get it, do you?"

Kelso, still chuckling, said, "Nope!"

Fez said, "I am the guy who hasn't been in love for a long time and I even know what it means."

Donna said, "Kelso, it means Jackie is in love with Randy."

Kelso said, "You see, that's not possible, because I'm A LOT hotter than Randy."

Hyde punches Kelso and says, "Shut up, Kelso."

Donna said, "We need to get them together. Eric, do you know where Jackie is?"

Eric said, "Yeah, she's in the kitchen looking for some salsa."

Fez stood up and said, "Well come on let's go!"

Donna grabbed Fez and said, "No! Let me go in there first and try to get Jackie to admit it first… you know because I'm her best friend."

Donna went into the kitchen. Jackie was looking through the cabinet.

Donna walked up to Jackie and said, "Hey, how's it going?"

Jackie said, "Good"

Donna said, "So… what have you been doing?"

Jackie said, "Just hanging with Eric and Randy."

Donna said, "So how's Randy?"

Jackie gave a confused face and said, "Fine?"

Donna taped Jackie on the shoulder and smiled, saying, "How about 'very' fine?"

Jackie still had a confused face, then Donna said, "Come on, I know you like Randy."

Jackie, surprise, said, "What?"

Donna held up the diary and said, "Look I ready through your diary and found out that you are in love with somebody and we figured it is obviously Randy."

Jackie tried to grab the diary and shouted, "You looked in my diary! Give that back!"

Donna pulled the diary away and said, "Not until you admit that you like Randy."

Jackie said, "I don't like Randy that."

Donna said, "Jackie just admit it, so we can try to set you up with Randy."

Jackie said, "I don't care what that diary says, I don't like Randy like that."

Donna, trying to be emotional, said, "Come on Jackie, Randy is a nice guy, and after all you've went through with Kelso and Hyde don't you think you deserve a guy like Randy?"

Jackie got finally through with this said, "Forget this, I'm outta here."

Jackie stormed out through the door to the living room.

Donna, disappointed with the results walked through the living door, and saw all the guys standing there.

Hyde spoke up and said, "Donna, we just saw Jackie storm outside, toward the Foreman's, so I'm guessing she didn't admit it?"

Donna shook her head and said, "Nope, she denied me every time."

Fez said, "Don't worry Donna, she'll come around eventually. Plus, I was wondering do you have any marsh mellows?"

Donna looked at Fez and said, "No, my dad took them with him because they get some midgets to get him some secret ice cream flavor he likes."

Kelso interested said, "What flavor?"

Donna looked at him like he was a dumbass and said, "I don't know, it is a secret flavor."

As the rest of the gang started to discuss this secret flavor, Eric walked out the door.

Place: Foreman Driveway

Jackie was sitting on the Vista Cruiser pondering about what had been discussed with Donna. Jackie turned her head as she heard footsteps walking towards her. Jackie looked and saw it was Eric walking towards her. Eric sat on the hood next to her.

Jackie turned her head away from Eric and said, "So… did Donna and the rest send you out here, to try to convince me to go out with Randy?"

Eric shook his head and said, "Nope, I came out here on my own."

Jackie, relieved, said, "Good."

Eric said, "But Donna is right."

Jackie rolls her eye and says, "Aargh! Not you too!"

Jackie starts to get up but Eric grabs her hand and keeps her from getting up. Jackie surprisingly just sat back down.

Eric looked at Jackie and said, "Look Jackie, I saw the diary."

Jackie, angered, said, "No matter what that diary says I don't like Randy."

Eric said, "Jackie, every time that Randy and I go somewhere 'you' want to tag along."

Jackie said, "That doesn't mean anything."

Eric said, "Jackie who else could it be? Because you think I'm some sort skinny nerd."

Jackie, looking guilty, said, "No I don't."

Eric said, "Yes you do. I remember you saying to Donna after the first break up saying that she lost 90 pounds of a skinny nerd boy."

Jackie, looking very guilty, said, "Please don't remind me."

Eric said, "Jackie, you're one my friends and I want you to be happy, and I think you should go and tell him how you feel. And yes I know it is scary to tell someone how you feel, but if you don't…"

Jackie grabbed Eric and kissed him. The kiss lasted for a while. Jackie broke the kiss.

Eric shocked looked at Jackie and said, "Umm… yah… umm… WOW."

Jackie had her head facing the ground and said, "Yeah."

Eric said, "Well, ah…"

Then Jackie ran back towards the Pinciotti house, leaving Eric standing there all alone. Then Eric heard and all too familiar sound from the bushes, "What the hell!"
