"Jackie? You here? I came to see how your evening went..."

"Donna?"

"Yeah, let me in, the door is stuck," she answered. The door handle jerked around and Jackie was startled when Hyde gently but quickly moved her aside and sprung from the bed and away from her.

She watched him scramble around for his clothes, tugging and pulling them on. She watched him confusion, before realization dawned on her face.

"You like Donna!" she accused in a harsh and angry whisper as she gathered the covers around her body.

Hyde actually paused from his mad attempts to replace his boots to stare at her with a look that clearly said he had no idea what she was talking about. Donna had no idea what was going on either and she couldn�t even hear Jackie�s whisper.

"Jackie?" Donna called. "What�s going on? Let me in."

"I can�t believe you!" Jackie bit out toward Hyde, totally ignoring her worried friend. She proceeded to pick up ever pillow and stuffed animal around her and hurl it at his head.

"Jackie? Jackie, stop. Ow, come on, that wasn�t the softest animal!" Hyde complained.

"Hyde?" Donna confused voice said on the other side of the door.

"Get OUT!" Jackie yelled, throwing Bertruse the Bear, it hit him in the head.

"Jackie, what is wrong with you?" he asked, inching closer to her.

"ME? Oh, you--"

She didn�t even finish, jumping off of the bed and gathering the sheets around her, dragging them on the floor as she paced.

"Jacks?" Hyde said, reaching for her.

"Don�t Jacks me!" she bit, slapping his hand away.

"Would you guys let me in?" Donna moaned, kicking the door.

"NO!" came the duel response.

"What is your problem?" Hyde asked, this time with a lot more attitude.

"My problem is you tell me you love me then jump up when your real love drops by you--you . . . Jerkhead!"

"MY WHAT!"

"Don�t hide it, Steven, just get out of my room! And I let you . . . URGH!"

That last thought made her infuriated all over again and she threw her music box at him.

"Oh . . . owie . . ." was Hyde�s small words before he sunk to the floor, his face a mask of pain and his mouth in an �O�.

"Steven! Oh, I�m so sorry!" Jackie panicked as she rushed to his side.

"What�s happening, what is it??" said Donna�s panicked voice.

It was, again, ignored as Jackie cupped Hyde�s cheek. He inched closer seeking comfort as *he* cradled the one place he would have least liked this type of contact . . .

"I was aiming for your arm!" she explained.

"You missed," he gasped out, cupping his groin.

"I�m so sorry," she whispered in his ear, trying to comfort him.

Hyde wasn�t an idiot, he had a *very* apologetic Jackie when seconds before she was *very* mad. Time to tell the truth and have her actually listen.

"Donna is not the reason, I . . . for a minute I just remembered who I was and . . ."

"The current situation didn�t fit in?" Jackie questioned. She wasn�t mad, in fact there was amusement in her voice.

"Yeah," he nodded, finally feeling well enough to sit up. He was happy and content laying with Jackie and when he heard Donna knock. It had reminded him of the group, of the position he played, or at least he thought he was supposed to.

"Don�t worry over every little thing, Steven. You are who you are and whether it�s making fun of Kelso when he can�t even realize it or being the sweetest person on Earth. You�re still you," she told him, her eyes filled with softness and sincerity.

He looked at her almost unsure and to quell his fears she leaned over and kissed him. It was soft and gentle but enough to notify Hyde that he had a very beautiful, very willing girl in his arms, a girl he loved who loved him back. She straddled his laps and they sat on the floor, she gathered in a mass of sheets twisted around her and he, one boot on, unbuckled pants and an open shirt.

Jackie ran her nails lightly over his chest and he lay back, bringing her with him. She pulled back and he grabbed for her but paused when he saw that he reason was to push away the fabric that covered her.

Outside Donna sat against the door waiting for it to be opened when she heard sounds of what seemed like . . . pleasure.

"Eewww." She stood up deciding she had heard enough for a day -- make that too much for a day.

Unfortunately, she didn�t even she someone in front of her.

"Hello, Donna."

"Mr. Burkhardt . . . hello . . . Jackie is, uh . . . in her room," she finished, grasping for something to say.

"Yes, I figured," Mr. Burkhardt smiled gently at the girl tripping over her words, he always thought there was something odd about those Pinciottis. "Well, I�m just going to tell her good night."

"Wait!" Donna tried to stall as he walked past.

"Yes?"

"We--We were trying on clothes and I don�t know if she�s fully dressed yet. I�ll go check."

She rushed past him and grabbed the doorknob, turning and pushing.

Nothing happened.

She gave Jackie�s father a nervous smile and tried again, kicking on it viciously.

Still nothing, except . . .

"DONNA, I�M KIND OF BUSY!" Jackie�s annoyed tone rang.

"Trying on clothes, I know, Jackie. You�re *father* is out here and he wants to say goodnight so finish getting dressed and . . . I need my purse that�s inside of the room, open the door."

There was silence and then a mad scruffling sound and a tugging on the door before it opened. A hand shot outward, grabbing Donna�s arm and pulling her in before quickly looking the door.

"What are my parents doing here!? They were supposed to be at a party until at least 1 AM!" Jackie whispered, now wrapped in a fluffy pink robe.

"Well I guess they changed their plans," Donna answered. "Where�s Hyde?"

Before she could even get an answer she saw his bare backside as he rushed to find his clothing.

"ARH!" she exclaimed shielding her eyes. She suddenly remembered who might still be in the hall and tried to cover. "Arh, that is a horrible outfit."

"My pants, were are my pants!?" Hyde harshly whispered.

"I don�t know! Here, take this."

"I am not--"

"Take it! That�s an order!"

Hyde made a face but complied anyway being that he hadn�t worn any underwear and had no idea where his jeans were. A knock on the door brought, "Jackie? Sweetheart? Open the door, your father and I want to say goodnight."

"One minute," she said loudly, turning to Hyde her voice dropped. "Out the window, go!"

"I--"

"Jackie? What�s going on in there?" her father�s voice asked as he knocked on the door.

With that Hyde gathered whatever he could, frantically putting it on before he darted to the window. Donna chose that moment to open her eyes . . . she laughed so hard she had to lean against the wall.

Outside, Hyde made his way down the trellis and took off. He really hoped he could make it to Foreman�s in a loincloth and boots . . .

Next?

Bunny, it was really hard to follow you, you�re amazing! My favorite line was, Jackie gasped in surprise and a bit of pain; he was HUGE... Kelso literally dwarfed in comparison... � That�s right, Hyde gets respected :)
