Love and Tragedy
Fall Down, Get Back Up!
Connie walked up the stairs to the temple. She had grown a lot since her 18th birthday last week, so she didn't notice how close the top of the door was, she smacked her head on the frame and fell back down the stairs.
Steven ran out of the temple "CONNIE!" He screamed as he jumped down the stairs to her. He picked her up, brought her into the temple and sat down on the couch with her in his arms. She had a broken arm and a few bruises, which he quickly healed but when he got to her arm it was clearly too painful to touch. So he did the only thing he could think of, he lent his head down to her and kissed her…
(Connie's pov)(Point of view)
I felt every nerve tingle and every muscle tense but I could also feel every scratch, every sore spot and injuring that i had on my body heal. It felt great…
"Wow…" he smiled down at me. I sat up, my arm felt so much better and stronger. I looked at my hand, it felt softer and I realised he healed calluses, "thanks, now when I fight my hand will hurt" I said jokingly. "I like it when you have soft hands" he whispered as he kissed my hand
"Besides while you fix your hand, I can protect you". I smile demonically as I rolled back off the couch and grabbed my sword, I took a battle stance. "Then prove it" I said with a smirk, he smiled and with a swift movement he summoned his shield and jumped at me. I panicked and swung my sword as hard as I can… BANG! The sword shattered against his shield, shards started to fly everywhere.
Steven pushed me down onto the couch just as the shards flew through the air and into the wall. I looked up at Steven "Steven?" He looked at me then realised he was on top of me and jumped up, I giggled and stood up, walked over to him and pecked him on the lips.
"Thank you my Steven"
"Um your welcome, but you should be more careful" I looked around and saw the damage "oh Steven, I'm so sorry. I broke heaps of your stuff. "It's not just that Connie, I don't know what I would do if you got hurt or worse" I looked down feeling guilty and then remembered my sword,
"My sword!"
I ran over to the handle and looked down at it sadly. Pearl gave it to me for my birthday and I really liked it, "Oh no, I'm so sorry Connie" Steven sad as I sat on the floor, "No it's my fault, I was the one who said we should spar and I'm the one who hit your shield so hard! " I said feeling guilty. He smiled sadly at me, I kissed his cheek and stood up. "Whelp I should go find pearl so I can get a sword to practice with," I said trying to sound optimistic.
"Wait! I have an idea."
He sprinted into his room (rose's room). As he ran out I saw what he was holding and I smiled, he's so thoughtful. "Milady, I bestow upon you my moth… I mean, my sword… again" "oh Steven, thank you… again" he chuckled. "You're welcome my Connie" I blushed and looked into his eyes as I leant in and…"CONNIE!" I heard Pearl yell as she opened her door, I jumped back." Connie we really must be…"
As she talked I looked over at Steven. He was blushing so much. Then I realised I was blushing more than him and I had to jump on the couch to cover my face. I think Steven found it funny because he burst into laughter and jumped on top of me. He landed on me with a thud winding me, "Oh! Steven! Get off of me" I said hysterically laughing. We played around until... "STEVEN! CONNIE!" pearl shrieked over our laughter, we went quiet and looked at us. "You two! The world is always needing help and they need us all to save them not laugh and play arou…"she was silenced by Garnet placing a hand on her shoulder
"Shhh, trust me they will stop playing around soon. I'm sure of it" She said as she tilted her glasses down and winked at us (Foreshadowing) me and Steven just looked at each other and shrugged…
Then Steven pounced on me and started tickling me. God, I love him…
