See that was much better than "Have a good trip"

Nicely done. Hyde said much more but still felt like Hyde.

Lol McVader, really Eric.

So glad you got them talking, got Hyde thinking. This is what they needed. What we needed;)

i love how this story goes into detail in explaining both parties' insecurities and how seeing how they work through them. i hope this continues and hope to see more stories from you too!

I like that both Jackie and Hyde are experiencing insecurity about their decisions. I also like that they talk (and listen to) their friends about it. If Hyde really were as bad as Jackie claims to Brooke, there's no way she should be with him. I'm glad that Hyde proved her wrong.

I enjoy the use of the time/place at the start of each section. I often employ it in my T7S fics, too. Reminds me of the show's title cards.

Sweet chapter. Besides the Jackie/Hyde interaction, I also like Jackie/Brooke's friendship. I always thought their was more potential for that.

Yay! A very nice chapter! I love when Jackie and Brooke are friends, even if the show doesnt actually explore this. Very nice when Brooke says Jackie is afraid, and then Jackie gets all pissed off. She asked Hyde the exact same question lots of times before and now that she's in his place, she doesnt seem to enjoy it! haha

The scene at The Hub it's funny too! Eric and the whole devil stuff haha so typical of him! But I found interesting that Hyde started thinking she manipulated him, while she actually was afraid he thought that.

The whole paragraph about challenges: WOW! You nailed it! I dont even know what to say to complement it!

It's very interesting to see how they both are struggling with this whole situation, and are insecure in kind of the same aspects. But they reacted the opposite I thought they would at the motel. Althought they haven't talked much, they seem much more mature and cool with the whole situation. And I like the 'piece of my mind' Hyde gave Jackie on the last paragraph. haha

Thanks again for the chapter! Keep going!

Wow! What a great start! Lots going on in here, huh?

Nice intake about the stupid reasons Jackie gave on their last make up. The show did a pretty crappy job bringing them together that way. It's nice Jackie is aware here that she knows the real reasons to be with Hyde again.

It was very interesting to see Hyde losing his zen. He tries hard to keep it cool, but it's obvious he's struggling. He's been hurtful and mean to Jackie throughout the entire chapter, but it shows how much hurt he is right now by the whole ultimatum thing. Nice job exposing this side of him!

I LOVED this line: "The only thing both their visions had in common was both of them being in it, together."

Him saying he didnt want this future with her: OUCH! I felt the pain in my heart! And then when he completes saying he just wants to be with her. Sweet! haha but she keeps pushing further, and I dont blame her. Their relationship has been quite complicated and I get it's hard for her to be 100% sure about his commitment.

I really enjoyed this first chapter! Your writing is very good!

Interesting chapter. Can't wait to read more.

D, I'm enjoying this story so far. I particularly liked chapter two's conversation between Jackie and Hyde. Jackie confronts Hyde with important questions, and I'm glad he's (eventually) brave enough to admit the truth. I also like Jackie's moment of putting words into Hyde's mouth ("you need me") and that he admits that, too, after her prompting.

The whole either/or Chicago/Marry-me situation really is ridiculous. Hyde's points in chapter one are apt (and something I explored in a fic, too). I'm glad he goes with her to Chicago in this story because why not? On the show, both Jackie and Hyde ended up being written with black-and-white thinking rather than in shades of gray.

Eric's fantasy of Jackie's future is quite funny. Doctor McVador (McVader). Of course he'd go there. Hyde is full of hidden insecurities, which Eric likes to draw out into the open so Hyde can deal with them. My heart hurt for Hyde in chapter two when he explained some of these insecurities to Jackie (new family, the prospect of being abandoned again, etc.)

I'll be interested in see how this story develops. :D

I like it please update I want to read more :)

So nerve-wracking! They're both so stubborn in the show, and this story really brings it out! Can't wait for the next update!

Talk things out?! Whoever heard of such a thing? Lol.
Nice start.
Thanks for sharing.

Very intense first chapter.

Very IC! Love the concept of having a legit conversation to avoid the Chicago mess, rather than deal with the Kelso the Vegas, the stripper, etc. Keep it up!
