Disclaimer: I own nothing! Not That 70's Show or the characters or anything form there. I also don't own the song used in this preview titled 'Landslide' that belongs to Stevie Nicks. Just keeping myself and hopefully some readers entertained.
Author's Note: Hello Everyone! Now i know i still have a fic in the works but it's almost done! So i decided to get started on this one!This fic has been playing in my head for a long time, ever since I got bit by the Jackie/Eric bug. It's something really new to me and I hope you guys will enjoy it. I got the idea after watch the movie Two Weeks with Sally Field great movie btw. So this story will kinda be like that but I added a lot more stuff. Also big thanks to Marla's Lost who was a great big help to me when I first thought of the idea! No, I wasn't gonna write a preview but when I got my laptop I couldn't resist so Ta da! But if you're afraid it'll give too much away go ahead and scroll down to the release date and another Author's Note (I like to talk can you tell? lol) ) Hope you like please review and enjoy!
Updated AN June '12: Because I don't want to take the risk of the fic being taken down I have deleted the lyrics that had previously been posted as part of this opening chapter. However you can still read this chapter and to get the whole experience listen to the song 'Landslide' by Stevie Nicks or The Dixie Chicks or any other version while you read it. Sorry if it's a bit confusing and I hope you'll continue to read the story :D
Two Weeks
A That 70's Show Fan Fiction
Kitty is seen sitting in the living room, fluffing up her hair and making sure her clothes aren't wrinkled.
"Do I look ok?" she asks to the camera.
"You look great." Hyde is heard saying from behind the camera, "I'm glad you're finally doing this."
Kitty takes in a deep breath, "I can't believe I'm doing this."
The Forman Family was always a close family, basement babies and all…
A Christmas photo, sitting on a night stand is shown. Red and Kitty are sitting in the middle of the yellow sofa. Laurie sits beside Red with Fez sitting on the floor by her feet. On the other side, next to Kitty is Eric who has his right arm around Donna's shoulders. On the second level, sitting on the brick wall behind the couch are Hyde with his arm slung on Jackie's shoulders and Kelso sitting beside Jackie with a dopey smile on his face.
But like everything else in life, that changed with time…
More Christmas photos are shown. With each new one, everyone looks a little bit older and has changed in some sort of way. And most importantly the number of people in pictures begins to shrink. First Laurie's gone, then Fez and Kelso, then Donna, and finally Eric. The latest picture is of Kitty and Red sitting in the same space but instead it is Jackie who is sitting on Red's left side and Hyde sitting on Kitty's right.
And now it could change again….
Hyde is seen standing in the Forman kitchen, talking on the phone. He looks tired and frustrated, and it can easily be heard in his voice.
"You need to come home, man." He says into the phone, "She's not getting better…she needs you here."
The whole gang including Randy, Betsy, and Brooke, but not Eric are in the kitchen. Hyde stands off to the side watching them and Kelso bounces over to him.
"Man, Hyde" he says happily, "it's great that everyone's finally together."
"Yeah." Hyde agrees in a sarcastic tone, "A real hoot."
With some humor…
The gang is sitting in the basement. Everyone is there including Randy. He looks over around at the gang.
"You know, sometimes I feel like you guys don't want me here." He tells them, "It's like you never even hear a word I'm saying."
Hyde frowns and turns to Fez, "Hey Fez, did you hear something?"
Fez just shakes his head as the others laugh—except for Donna and Randy.
Lots of drama…
Eric and Jackie are seen standing in the kitchen.
"Eric, you don't realize just how lucky you are." Jackie says to Eric as he tries to walk out to the driveway.
Instead he turns around and points his finger at Jackie, "No Jackie. You don't realize how lucky you are."
Eric and Donna are outside in the driveway sitting on the Vista Cruiser. They are not sitting too close to each other, but not far away either. Eric is looking down as Donna talks to him.
"Eric, I know you're going through a tough time." Donna sincerely tells him, "And I just want you to know that I'll be here for you. I love you."
Eric turns his head to look at her, looking slightly surprised
Jackie and Eric are seen kissing in the kitchen, when the swinging door opens and Donna and Hyde are revealed.
"Eric, I've got the perfect solution to your problem!" Kelso excitedly tells Eric as they sit on the couch in the basement.
Eric rolls his eyes, "Kelso, if it's anything that deals with beer or naked ladies I don't wanna hear it."
Kelso sits quietly for a several seconds before jumping back up.
"Ok, I've got another perfect solution to your problem!"
Jackie is seen sitting on the bed beside Kitty, laughing as she talks to her. Betsy and Jackie are seen playing Barbie's on the floor. Jackie is seen hugging Red.
"She's a good kid, that one." Red tells his son as they sit in the master bedroom.
"Yeah, yeah. She's the favorite." Eric scoffs, earning him a smirk from Red.
In the living room, a very hostile scene seems to be going on. As the group of adults, Hyde, Donna, Eric, Jackie, Kelso, Brooke, and Randy, all look angry at one another.
Fez pops into the room from the kitchen, with Betsy at his side and a tray of mugs in his hands.
"Who wants hot chocolate?"
Seeing that no one has answered him he frowns, but then takes a few seconds to pay attention to the scene.
"Uh-o. Um more hot chocolate for us then." he quickly tells Betsy as he hurriedly pushes the little girl back into the room.
~.~
Kelso and Fez along with Betsy run into the Forman's bedroom, they each jump onto Kitty's bed and continue to bounce around making Kitty laugh out loud
~.~
Eric is seen sitting on the bed, talking to Kitty. Then suddenly he stops and breaks down into tears as he hugs his mother.
~.~
Hyde is seen sitting in the Forman's bedroom as Kitty lays on the bed looking very weak and frail.
Hyde looks down and shakes his head before looking back up at Kitty, "You're on your deathbed and you're still playing matchmaker."
Kitty smiles and laughs weakly as she reaches over and grabs Hyde's hand.
~.~
Red is seen walking over to the bed where Kitty is laying in with her eyes closed, he carefully climbs into it and wraps his arms around her.
And the power of family…
The entire family is seen standing in the kitchen, with a glass in their hands. Suddenly Hyde raises his up a bit higher.
"To Kitty Forman."
The others nod their heads and move their cups up to cling against Hyde's.
"To Kitty Forman."
A lot can happen in two weeks
Eric and Jackie are seen sitting in the living room.
"When did the devil turn into an angel?" Eric asks her, teasingly.
"I don't know." Jackie tiled her head, "When did Yoda turn into Luke Skywalker?"
