March 5

The girls and Hyde had decided to stop for the night after arriving in NYC a little earlier than planned. Callie was tired and everybody was hungry, so they stopped to eat dinner and then rented a room to stay in for the weekend.

When the morning came, Callie was the first one up, as she was used to getting up this early because of school. She went into the bathroom, showered, brushed her teeth, did her hair and when she was finished she went out into the room to see if anyone else was up, and there was. Jackie was awake, as was Donna.

"Good morning," Callie greeted with a small smile as she put her dirty clothes into their travel bag.

"Good morning," Jackie said in return before standing and heading for the bathroom, brushing against Callie's shoulder in the process.

Callie looked at her mother as Jackie shut the bathroom door, her eyes looking very much like her father's in that moment, "What time are we going to look at the store?" The small girl asked.

Donna shrugged and looked down at her hands sleepily, "I don't know. Probably before lunch."

Callie nodded and sat across from her mother, "What are we doing after that?"

Donna shrugged, "To eat, then after that… I don't know."

Callie smiled brightly, "Well, if we don't have any plans after that, we should go sightseeing. I mean, it is New York, we have to at least see the Statue of Liberty."

Donna raised her eyebrows at her daughter's excitable attitude, "Yeah, if you want, we can try and go see that."

Callie smiled brighter, "Yes!"

Donna rolled her eyes and rested her chin in her hand as her daughter stood and went back to the bed to sit and watch TV. It was going to be a long day.

"I kind of liked that place," Jackie said as the four drove away from their new record store, "It had that nice feel to it… You know what I mean?"

Donna nodded, "Yeah, I liked it too. There seems to be some nice places around it."

"Maybe we won't get too many street rats," Jackie suggested, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Doubt it," Hyde piped up from the driver's seat, "Are you sure you're up for running the place, Donna? I mean, you'll have to pack up everything and just move to a completely different place. A city, no less. Are you sure you can handle it?"

Donna gave Hyde a look, her eyebrows furrowed in an annoyed way, "What are you trying to say?"

Hyde shrugged, "Well, I guess I'm just a little nervous letting you and Callie live in a city like this by yourselves, that's all."

Jackie smiled sweetly and cast Hyde a glance, "Awe… He does have a heart."

"Shut up," Hyde snapped, hitting his turn signal.

Callie was expertly ignoring the three adults in the car, all her attention focused on the picture her mother had in wallet of Eric. Her mother wasn't paying attention, so she had just grabbed it out of her purse without her noticing.

She was trying to take in Eric's features, so maybe if she ever saw him on the street or something she could easily recognize it as him.

The only problem was he could look completely different now as this picture was taken in 1979. The picture was of him and Donna standing by a lit Christmas tree. Apparently Kitty had wanted photos to send in the mail to all her relatives, because Callie knows that would be the only time Donna would ever stand in for picture, these days anyway.

Eric was a handsome boy with a slight frame, something she's heard Jackie make fun of several times before. Apparently he was quite nerdy as well. He liked Star Wars and Marvel Comics, especially Spider-Man, he built models out of Lego's, etc. Callie was curious as to what he looked like today. Was his hair gray? Was he fat? Did he have any hair at all? Did he look like Red?

"What do you got there, Callie?" Her mother's voice suddenly cut through her own thoughts.

Callie jerked her head up to see her mother's curious gaze on the picture in her hands, "How'd you get that?" Donna asked as she snatched the photo out of her hands.

"I just took it out of your wallet. I didn't think you would mind," Callie shrugged, seeming a little hurt by her mother's reaction.

"I should be concerned by how you did that without me noticing," Donna responded, looking down at the photo of Eric and going quiet.

It made Callie curious, her eyebrows raising, "What is it?" She asked, her mother's look making her concerned.

Donna smiled a little and stroked the picture with her thumb before she shrugged, "It's nothing."

Callie raised one eyebrow, letting the other move down, "I know it's something."

Jackie rolled her eyes and looked back at Callie from the passenger seat, "Its Eric's birthday today."

Callie nodded and looked over at her mother, "How old is he?"

"Forty-one," Donna replied, but her facial expression changed, "He was so stupid sometimes."

Callie tilted her head in befuddlement, "What? How?"

"Well… I know me and him were never going to be together. We wanted different things," Donna started, "But he could of at least said goodbye. He just up and left one day. But… On the other hand, I glad he left like he did."

"Why?" Callie questioned, staring intently at her mother.

Donna looked over her daughter, finally peeling her eyes away from the photo, "Because if he stayed I probably would of never met you father."

Callie smiled at her mother as Jackie started yelling at Hyde in the front seat, "Hyde, pay attention to the road, you could hit something."

"Hang on, I'm trying to figure out where the hell we are," Hyde snapped, staring down at the city map in his lap, his eyes every so often flicking up to check the road ahead of him.

"Hyde…" Jackie warned, gripping her seat tightly in nervousness.

"Hang on, Jackie," Hyde snapped, concentrating a little too hard.

Jackie looked up at the road ahead of them and saw a man on a skateboard of some sort jumping off the curb and into the street, crossing the road, not really paying attention to traffic.

"Hyde! Look out!" Jackie cried, grabbing onto Hyde's arm to get his attention.

Hyde jerked his head up and slammed on the breaks instinctively. He tried slowing his car down, but it was too late, he ran into the man crossing the road, knocking him back off of his skateboard. Jackie shrieked in horror and worry as Hyde gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white.

"Oh my God," Donna said from the back seat, her eyes wide.

"Oh God," Jackie said, unbuckling her seat belt, along with Donna and Callie before getting out of the car. Hyde was too shocked to move.

The three girls went around to the front of the car to see the man lying on his back, moaning in pain. His eyes were squinted closed as he moved ever so slightly.

"Oh my God, are you okay?" Jackie cried, looking down at his legs.

He was moving a little bit, so he didn't hurt his back. Not horribly, anyway.

"Jackie," Donna said, but Jackie didn't hear her.

"Do we need to call an ambulance?" Jackie asked, panicking a little bit.

"Jackie," Donna said again, but Jackie ignored her once more.

"Oh your mouth, it's bleeding," Jackie said, covering her mouth with her hand.

"Jackie!" Donna cried this time.

"What Donna?" Jackie snapped, turning to look at the slightly older woman.

"It's… It's…" Donna's finger was pointing at the man on the ground, her hands shaking a tad.

Jackie looked confused, "What?"

She looked down at the ground and her eyes went wide, her jaw dropping, allowing a gasp to escape her lips, "Oh my God."

Callie smiled a little bit, "It's Eric."
