Disclaimer: Nothing is mine.
Hyde and Charles enter Jackie's apartment complex. Hyde is building up the courage to go up there even though he's trying to act like he doesn't care. That's the thing about Charles; he speaks Zen which Hyde hates. He kept telling Hyde to persevere and finally got him to.
"Charles man she has a boyfriend, you expect me to go back up." Hyde said trying to make excuses.
"Well stop assuming because maybe he's gay or something." Charles pointed out. "Or just her friend, which would make him gay." Charles pointed out thinking hard. "Whatever lets move man." He pushed his friend up stairs.
Jackie's in the room getting ready for her big date with Mark.
"Jackie, you almost done in there?" Mark knocked on the bedroom door.
"Hold on I need to find the perfect dress." She opened to door and walked over to him with two dresses "Which one makes me look super pretty over just pretty?" she asked her boyfriend.
"Both. Just pick one honey." He took a glance at the door like he was expecting something.
"Babe, what's the rush? You want to look perfect don't you?" she said leaning against the wall.
"Just want to get there that's all." He answered. She got nervous.
"Is this about the picture?" she walked to him again.
"no!" he pulled away aggressively lying and she saw it. Her face turned serious. Then there was a knock at the door.
"I'll get it" He said looking sad he walked over to it, then answered it to two men standing there starring at him.
"Hey man, does a Jackie Burkhardt live here?" Hyde said right before he fell to the ground. He had been punch by the tall man. Charles and Mark are yelling at each other. Jackie runs over. Charles is blocking her view of her ex lying on the ground.
"Mark he's just that guy I almost hit earlier with your car." She looked at Charles. "I hope you've come to apologize." She pointed at him.
Starring at her confused "You're the shallow snob? Me and Hyde were making fun of you." He held his stomach and laughed.
"What?" she had that look on her face. (the one she did when fez said something weird. Like every episode. It was kind of annoying.) Moving on…
"The girl in the Lincoln right?" he asked her.
"What. No move!" she said aggressively pushed him to see Steven Hyde laying on the ground.
Jackie's eyes grew "Oh my…" she covered her mouth. She couldn't believe he was here after all these years. Laying right there in her hallway. All she could think was This day couldn't be any worse. Until she felt a hard tug on her arm pulling her into the room and shut the door. Mark yelled at her. They were fighting.
Meanwhile…
"Hyde man you ok," he pulled him up.
"Man I can't move my eye. Now I know how Kelso feels." Hyde and Charles Chuckled.
"Maybe we should go." Charles finally said.
"Umm…" Hyde starred at the door. "No." Charles stopped stared at him blankly. Hyde looked at him in al seriousness. "I'm not going to loose her again." Charles surprised by Hyde's answer he waited with his friend.
"I'm gonna go get some drinks down at the bar." he suggested happy his friend finally out witted Zen.
Hyde decided to knock again. He cleared his throat. Jackie answered she had been crying.
"Steven why did you come here?" she asked nervously. She wasn't crying because of what Mark yelled at her well that was only half. She was also having happy tears from the guy standing in front of her, Steven Hyde. She was so happy to see him even though she hated him. She at that point stood there staring at his beautiful blue eyes then moved a hand to his head and rubbed his eye with her thumb. "Damn. Lets go get some ice from the Machine down stairs." She closed the door quietly behind her.
"Jackie." Hyde said breaking the silence.
"Steven, why did you come here?" she interrupted.
"Damn Jackie, I just wanted to visit." Hyde said angrily at her.
"Why didn't you call then?" she sneered back at him.
"sorry." He said giving up.
"You say that a lot don't you?" she sneered back at him again. "Along with your award winning 'I don't know' remark." She snickered at him.
"Sorry about that… ahhh sor… I mean." Hyde tired to say, but Jackie shushed him with her finger and laughed.
"Steven just shush." She said. She wanted to kiss him so bad. He had one of those adorable smiles on his face. That smile made her give in many, many times. They made it to the Ice Machine. Charles walked up with some drinks. Hyde turned around and Charles jumped.
"Damn that thing could be in a horror movie." Jackie and him laughed at the remark.
"Ha-ha good on man!" Hyde punched his arm.
"Ow! Man jeez" Charles wrinkled his eye brows.
"Mark can be a hastle sometimes." She said. Both guys stared at her sincerely.
"Jackie, does he abuse you?" Hyde asked. She laughed and looked at Charles who was serious. Then she froze with a smile then got serious.
"Oh no, no. He just the jealous type and well frankly how can you blame him. Right?" she answered.
"Same old Jackie, even after two years." Hyde laughed and turned around with Charles. Jackie walked past them and shoved the ice bag into Hyde's stomach.
"HERE you go sweetie." She said to him and started walking back to her room.
"Jackie! Wait!" she stopped. Hyde ran to her. "Please come to dinner with me so we can uh… catch up or something."
"Umm… I don't know." She said.
"Please." His blue eyes, she couldn't resist them. "fine." They decided to walk over to the diner across the street.
"So uh.. Mark. Is he your boyfriend?" he asked nervously.
"Of course." She answered.
"oh." as he attempted a smile, but it didn't work. He wanted to put his glasses on, but they were broken. He was angry that they were.
"Steven really why did you come?" she stopped walking and really wanted to know.
"Uh…" he stared at her. "I don't know." He started walking again.
"Really… you don't know?" she ran up to him. "typical Hyde back to his old ways."
"Please, don't call me Hyde." He turned to her waving his hand.
"I'll stop calling you Hyde once you stop making stupid excuses." She poked his chest to the beat of her words.
"No ultimatums Jackie." He said.
"What? Are you going to go marry a stripper now Steven?" she stared straight into his eyes.
"Jackie common." He had a hurt look on his face. She had never seen it before. She suddenly wanted to cry for him. Did he really effect me this much. She said to herself.
"Okay, Steven no fighting. I promise." He just smiled. Usually he would follow that by a smart ass remark or something, but he didn't. She was confused he was different.
Then the smart ass remark came out. "The only you won't fight with me is if we never talk." He said smiling.
"I don't fight all the time." She snickered.
"See!" he whined. "What was that?"
"Uh! Lets just get this over with." He rolled her eyes and walked ahead. He just nodded and walked behind her.
They finally reached the diner they talked a little bit and just ordered drinks. Neither of them were really hungry. 30 minutes passed. There had been silence.
"So what your not talking to me now." Hyde whined at her.
"Well I haven't for the past couple of years, how's this any different?" she said with an attitude.
"I know I've said this a million times, but I am so sorry." Hyde acknowledged.
"Just because you put a 'so' in front of it doesn't make it different." She yelled. She had her arms crossed like she was trying to be Zen.
"Okay, Fine!" he leaned against the table and cleared his throat. "I tried to call like ten times, but no one never answered or a dude picked up and well after HE picked up I stopped." He finally said.
"You better not be lying to me Steven Hyde." Jackie's eyes turned devilish. She read his eyes he wasn't lying. "So Are you ever going to answer the question Why you came?" she begged him.
"Uh… right. I didn't want to um… drift away from uh… *cough* you, I guess." He answered terrified. He had never done this before.
"Steven this…" she pointed back and forth from him to her. "isn't a good idea." Her eyes turned into puppy dogs eyes.
"Yea, but I thought we could start talking again you know take it slow." He begged her. "It's pretty boring in Point Place, since everyone has moved on." He recognized.
"Maybe it should stay that way." She said very seriously.
"Wait, what's that supposed to mean." He said point his fork at her.
Yea, but I've written chapters 4 and 5 they are way better. All I can say is if you want to read them R&R. pleasie. Much tension in chapter 4. Don't worry the letter Hyde wrote is coming back. Just incase you were wondering where it was. lol
