DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN THAT 70'S SHOW.
Hyde had fallen asleep again, and this time he was awoken by female voice
"Steven." He heard whispered to him, but he just groaned and rolled his neck keeping his eyes closed.
"Steven!" The tiny voice urged stronger, but once again Hyde just adjusted himself.
"Steven James Hyde the third." This time he opened his eyes, and saw his girlfriend staring with her eyes wide open. She had her arms crossed and a childish pout on her mouth. He chuckled, and slowly rubbed his eyes.
"Yes Jacqueline?" He mocked, and she rolled her eyes. She stretched her arms out,
"As much as I like hearing you say that name, I need you to tell me something." He looked up at her and smirked, and stood up walking over to her,
"Yes Doll?" She sighed, and he reached his hands out to her tired shoulders. He realized how tense she really was, and tried to massage away the knots. He heard her let out a faint moan, and he continued his movements,
"Steven, I've been thinking about the future. What exactly is our future? Do we even have anything planned? I don't have any money and you only have the job at the record store. Will that even support us? Steven, are we even financially ready for this baby at all?" She groaned out, pressing her hands to her face in frustration, running them through her hair. He understood what she meant, he had been worrying about it too.
"Jacks, I promise it will all work out. Somehow." He said, but he knew that hadn't really helped. He walked over and began to pack up all of their belongings, and he heard her sigh. She was still thinking of how they would support their little family.
The Formans, had obviously told them they'd be there to help them. Although they did hear a few grumbles about teenagers being so careless from Red.
And they knew that their friends would help in their own ways, but it was still scary. Jackie felt the baby roll around in her stomach, causing a smile to spread across her face. It was as if the baby was trying to calm her racing thoughts. She watched her boyfriend cleaning up the room carelessly, not really watching what he was doing.
That was one of the thing she loved about him. His carelessness. Well, not neccessarily carelessness, but more his sense of being carefree. His attitude of zen. His whole outlook on life was what charmed her girlish heart. Her being the self obsessed, cheerleader. And him being the, "Whatever.. That's cool." kinda guy. It just turned her on.
She thought about the time he suggested her moving in with him, when he'd found out she'd been living all by herself. She remembered the day her Daddy had gone to jail, and she really never remembered her mother.
That was another thing that connected them. They had both been abonded at young ages.
She thought about her big house, and all the sleepovers she'd held there talking all about the boys in her school. All of the hot dumb ones. She had landed herself one of the rare ones. The hot, smart, funny, and rude at the same time kind of guy. She loved everminute of it.
She thought about her old room, and the big rooms in her house. She remembered the first time a boy advanced on her on the kitchen counter. She had been quite shaken, and she made him leave that instant.
She wouldn't lose her virginity to just anyone. It had to be special. And that was what she had done.
Just then she had a flashback of her father's home.
In the kitchen.
Up on the wall, above the stove.
That painting of her and her father.
Behind the painting..
"Steven!" She suddenly shrieked, and held back her laughter. When she had yelled, Hyde had jumped so high, he stumbled forward from tying his boot on the chair. He acted quickly and grabbed the hospital cot's metal framing, and he jumped to her side.
She saw his adorable face turning red, and he cleared his throat awkwardly. "Yes?" He said, and she slapped his stomach lightly.
"I've just remembered!" She sqealed happily. Hyde just gave her a look of, "Okay?.." And she continued to explain it to him.
"Daddy's house! He kept a stash of money he told me about before he left. There was tons of it! I used to take a few dollars here and there!" She said, and Hyde looked at her seriously.
"Jackie.. Do you think he intended that money.. for this certain reason? And when does your dad even get out of jail?" He saw her eyes grow cold at the memory of her father, and he felt a bit bad for asking the last bit.
"He told me "It's there when you need it Jacqueline."' She said, deepening her voice to mock her father. "And to be honest Steven, I just don't know. I almost think he'll be there forever. I miss him Steven.. But I want to kill him at the same time!" She said, her fist shaking angrily. He nodded in understanding, wanting to kill his dad too.
He understood all of those horribly feelings of being abandoned. He knew how it was to feel unloved and unwanted. But they had each other now.
"We need to stop there before we go back to the Forman's Steven. There was so much money there.. I bet we could even get an apartment!" She said, her eyes staring ahead in concentration, and felt his body tense beside her cot.
Her eyes snapped up to him, and immediately felt embarrassed for getting ahead of herself.
"Steven.. if you don't want to get an apartment.. I didn't mean we had to.. I mean, it was an idea is all. A dumb on at that." She mumbled on and on, fumbling for the right words to fix what she had said.
"No! No Jackie, that's not what I meant babe. I just.. Nevermind Jacks don't let it bother you." He grumbled, and started to walk away, but she grabbed for his hand, tugging him down. He tripped over his untied lace, and fell above her, her breasts grazing his chest. He'd been in the position many time before.
"Talk to me.. Puddin' Pop.. Pwease?" She smirked, knowing it'd get him. And it definately did. He groaned, and spoke with his petite girlfriend, loving the feeling of her pregnant belly touching his flat stomach.
"I just feel really bad Jackie. I feel like, I don't know.. Not really a failure but.. Something like that. I feel like I need to be the one supporting our family. I feel bad that we always have to rely on someone else. It fucks with my mind every day Jackie." Jackie kissed him softly after he finished, and tried to show him that that didn't bother in at all. She loved him for who he was.
"Steven. I love you. We love you." She said motioning to her belly. "That doesn't ever even cross my mind Puddin' Pop. I swear. I love you in so many other ways, and I love you for loving our little family. I don't think you realize how much it meant to me, when you came back for me when I told you I was pregnant." She sighed, trailing her nails up and down his cotton shirt. "I was so scared, thinking that I would have to raise a baby all by myself. I died a little inside. I thought you really wouldn't come back, and that was what really, trully scared me to death. But when you came back into that room, the weight of the world was literally lifted from my shoulders." She grinned, her eyes slowly watering up with tears.
She blinked, and smiled a fuller smile when she saw him sniff. He may be a tough guy, but he still had his emotions he kept secret. Sometimes he showed it to her, but it was a rare occasion. She released a tear as she blinked again, and Hyde leaned down onto her.
She became aware of how close their bodies were, and she realized how hot his breath felt on hers. She felt a familiar warmth rush through her body. She suddenly realized she didn't have any underwear on, and the bed cloth underneath her became wet with desire.
"Steven, I.. ohh.." She moaned as he licked the tear from her face, curling his tongue sexily. He kissed her entire face, from her lips to her eyebrows. Each touch gentle and soft. She shifted in desire below him, but knew they could do anything. Not yet. She needed time to heal.
"Steve, stop. If you don't stop now, I'm going to come all over these sheets, and I don't want to do that." He chuckled, and kissed her again, and slid off her petite body.
"You think your ready to leave in a few hours?" Hyde called from the bathroom, and she heard his mouth full. He peeked out, and she saw toothpaste surrounding his toothbrush. She sighed at the delightful thought. Getting out of this stuffy hospital.
"Definately!" She said, and stretched her arms. She waited for him to come back out, and asked him to help her stand on her feet.
"I want to see if I can move around yet." She said, and he pulled her softly into his hands. She felt a bit wobbly, but she took a step forward and grinned. She didn't feel that awful tearing sound in her groin. It was still a bit of a dull ache, but she felt better.
She walked carefully to the bathroom, and Hyde tossed her the clothes bag. She thanked him, and quietly shut the door.
She looked in the mirror, and sighed at the sight. Pale, and she looked unfed. But she just couldn't stomach that nasty hospital food anyways.
She slid off the dressing gown and examined her body. Her baby belly still prominent, although only one baby grew there now. She felt her eyes grow misty at the thought, but she shook her head away from those thoughts.
She glanced at her breasts in the mirror, and realized how swollen they were now. She thought about breastfeeding a baby, and wasn't really sure if she wanted to. She'd heard that it was pretty painful at times. But a lot of other women had also said that it seemed to bring the baby and mother to an even closer bond. She shrugged to herself, thinking she'd at least try it. For the baby's sake anyways.
She ran her hands up her hips, and realized she looked pretty amazing for a pregnant girl. She still had her prominent features such as her lean legs, and long arms. Her collarbone still standing out beautifully.
She touched her breasts, and hissed painfully. They felt so tender, and she sighed knowing it was just a sign of her pregnancy.
She pulled her black bra on, and clasped it easily. She shimmied on her underwear, and grabbed for her black sweater,
She reached for the bottom, and stretched it out for her body to slide through when she heard a voice,
"Wait." She spun around, still in just her bra and panties, and saw the door cracked open wide enough for Hyde's face to poke through.
"Steven Hyde, are you peaking at me without permission?" She sighed, brushing her hair over her shoulder. She heard him let out a breath of laughter when he spoke again,
"Your really.. pretty. Jackie, your really.. Your just really.. you know." He smirked, a little embarrassed for her to realize he'd been watching her.
She smiled a cute little grin, and blushed prettily. He walked towards her, and hugged her tightly to him.
Through the whole hospital ordeal, they seemed to have grown closer. Jackie hadn't told Hyde yet, but she really forgiven him about the whole, kissing at the Forman's house thing. It wasn't a big thing to her anymore.
She felt him trail his tongue up her jaw, and she moaned into his hair, the curls tickling her to pleasure. He had her leaned against the sink, and her body flushed against the cool surface, and his hot body against hers.
"You look so hot with your belly.. Jackie, I just want you all the time. You don't even understand.." He said, half growling into her little ear. He was running his hands up and down her body, and she whimpered out loud at the gestures.
"Actually, I do Steven.. I think.. Ohh.." She shrieked mid-sentence, when he bucked into her pelvis, "I think about you all the time." She finished. Hyde caught her lips in a heated kiss, and turned his forceful kisses to soft, gentle kisses. He kissed her with a small moan on her forehead and stepped back. She shivered, and felt like she'd just experienced an odd, orgasm-like feeling.
She felt... better. She felt satiated. And she felt so much better.
Hyde felt it too, knowing what she was just thinking to herself. His hard-on had gone away for the first time in hours. And it felt damn good.
"Alright Steven, I really want to leave this stupid hospital, ok?" He nodded and understood why she pushed him from her arms.
He walked backwards, pushing his back to the wall with a sexy grin on his face. She rolled her eyes and rolled her hips to her left, standing with a pout on her lips.
He laughed a good hearty laugh, and shut the door behind him.
A Little While Later:
Finally Jackie and Hyde stood with there bags at the door. Hyde reached for Jackie's hand and squeezed it.
"You ready Doll?" She gulped and nodded, possevily holding her pregnant belly. He smiled to himself at how little she really was. He almost felt guilty for getting the poor thing pregnant. She was just a baby in reality. But he was going to be there for her and their child, no matter how hard it would be.
They walked together slowly, a pace set for Jackie's aching groin, and Hyde left her a few feet away with the bags. He talked with the receptionist, and Jackie looked around the waiting room. She saw a elderly woman sitting by herself in the corner, and she smiled at Jackie. Jackie awkwardly smiled at her, and the woman walked over to her. Jackie just stood, waiting to see what the woman would do,
"I don't know you Sweetie, but is that man with you?" Jackie smiled widely, and nodded pridefully. The old woman smiled warmly,
"I watched you two coming down with each other through the hallway." She spoke softly, "You can tell he really loves you." Jackie smiled, and asked her a quiet "How?"
"I could see it in his eyes. The way he looks at you. Just like the way my sweet, deceased husband Bert. You keep that boy with you little Girl. He looks like a raiser of hell, but you keep him close to you, and don't you ever leave him." She said, patting Jackie's baby belly. Jackie barely had time to thank the old woman, before she walked back to her seat. She jumped softly, when she felt a hand gently smack her bum.
"Sorry Jacks," Hyde laughed, and Jackie looked at him quietly. She was trying to see if he looked at her like the old woman said. Hyde laughed embarrassed by her gaze.
"What you up to Jack Jack?" He said, touching her face softly. Jackie was just lost in his baby blue eyes, and she kissed his cheek softly. Hyde just brushed it off, thinking her pregnancy hormones were flaring up again.
He grabbed the bags, and led the way to the door slowly, and she looked over at the old woman. The lady winked at Jackie, giving her a thumbs up. Jackie just smiled, and following her curly haired boyfriend.
They stepped outside, and they both thought how wonderful it was to breath in some wonderful fresh air. It looked like it had just rained, and the sun was just peeking through the grey clouds. Hyde turned to Jackie, and she grinned up at him.
"Love you Jacks.." He said, itching his head. Jackie suddenly spoke,
"You do that a lot Steven."
"What do I do Jackie?" He asked her.
"You itch your head when your either embarrassed, or frustrated." She giggled, and he raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, well Miss Burkhart, you scrunch your nose up when your thinking, grossed out, or in a giggling.. girlish mood." She scrunched her nose, without even realizing it and kissed him soundly on his mouth.
Hyde led the way to his old car, and opened Jackie's side for her. He threw the bags into the trunk of the car, and hopped into the car.
He grabbed the keys from his pocket, and started the car. He saw Jackie holding her head, and he looked at her.
"Alright Doll?" She looked up at him, and smiled at him.
"I am Steven. I actually am." He grinned, and turned his radio on, and the song was by ABBA. Jackie squealed happily, and Hyde groaned.
"Jaaaackie..." He said, whining loudly. She pouted her lips,
"Pweeease, Steven? Just this once!" He looked her over, and groaned, shrugging his shoulders.
"Fine."
"Okay!" She giggled, and turned it up a bit. He backed out of the parking spot, and they drove the short distance, and within minutes they were on the street to the Formans. Hyde looked over and saw her squirming uncomfortably.
"What's the matter?" Holding back the urge to laugh, listening to her struggle and sigh with annoyance.
"Well.. If I tell you this, you can't laugh." He nodded, but didn't promise anything, because he can't promise that to anyone.
"My boobs hurt Steven!" She whined like a little girl. And as expected, Hyde laughed with his head bent backwards.
"Shut your pie hole!" She shrieked, and their eyes met each others.
Silence enveloped the entire car, and they just stared at each other with surprise,
And they both burst into laughter, Hyde laughing the loudest.
He laughed thinking, how much she was like him now, and grinned to himself thinking how he'd corrupted her.
She laughed thinking, the silly moments they had together. And for the first time in a few days,
They laughed together a good long, loud laugh. Tears rolling down each of their faces.
For the first time in a few days, they were truly happy, and nothing could stop it at that moment.
