A/N: This book consists a series of oneshots, and in each oneshot, the ages of Steven and Connie will be a year higher than their ages stated in the previous oneshot, so in this first one, Steven and Connie's ages are 16 and 14 respectively. Without further ado, let's get on with the story.
(Steven's pov)
It was a bright a sunny morning. I had finished eating pancakes which Amethyst had made for me. As soon as I finished doing the dishes, Amethyst asked me, playfully, "Hey Ste-man, guess what day is it?". It took me for a while to remember that it was Valentines Day. At once, I went into panic mode as I had been harboring feelings for Connie for a long time, and I intended to confess everything today. I hurriedly grabbed my phone and called Connie, and as I looked for her contact on my phone, I felt flustered with millions upon millions of butterflies in my stomach. Finally, the phone was ringing.
(Connie's POV)
It was 8:30 a.m. in the morning, eventhough I would be woken up by my mom at 6:00 during the weekdays, I am still asleep as today was a Sunday. Suddenly, I heard my phone ringing and saw that the caller's ID was Steven. For some reason, I blushed as soon as I saw his name on my phone. As soon as I answered, I was greeted by a good morning by a sweet voice. On the phone, my crushed had asked me if we wanted to spend the ENTIRE day together. Unsurprisingly, I said yes! I quickly got ready and I dressed in my best outfit: a red dress, which went down to the knee. It's sleeves ended halfway between the shoulder and the elbow, and there was a black lace around the waistline and embroidery around the neckline. "Someone looks like they are going somewhere today", said Dr. Maheswaran as soon as she saw her daughter. Connie replied, "Yeah mom, I'm going over to Steven's". I also quickly assured her that it wasn't a date but rather, we are going to hang out regularly, or at least, that's what it sounded like during the call I had. I quickly had my breakfast and walked over to Steven's house.
After a while, I had reached the beach house and rang the door bell. I was immediately hugged by my biscuit, Quartz Universe. "Hey C-Connie, w-wanna go to Funland first? You look great by the way", he offered, trying to sound cute and flirty (I guess?). "Aww, thanks Steven. Sure, we can go to Funland" I said.
(Steven's POV)
Me and Connie went to Funland and basically had fun there. We went to all of the attractions together as I have lost my fear of roller coasters a couple of months ago. Then we went to a arcade. There, we saw a teddy bear which Connie wanted. We managed to get it after much trouble, but it was worth it because I value Connie more than my own life. Soon after presenting Connie the bear, she told him, "Steven, I'm hungry. Let's go eat somewhere." I too felt hungry and we went over to the Fish Stew Pizza. When it was a time to pay the bill, I decided to be a gentleman and insisted Connie that I should pay the bill. I could tell that I was doing something right as I saw Connie blush when I did so. After that, we went over to the beach house to prepare for a picnic.
(Connie's POV)
By 2 in the afternoon, I had reached the beach house after a long, slow walk from Fish Stew Pizza. I think that Steven may like me because he begged me that he was the one who should pay the bill, but he may also have wanted to be courteous. Who knows if he loves me? Me and Steven and agreed upon a picnic at the lighthouse at 5. We took a rest first by playing a video game in his room.

(3rd person's POV)
The Sun was setting and it proved to be beautiful site. Steven and Connie were both watching the stunning view. They were sitting beside each other and Steven's right hand was right next to Connie's left hand and this was noticed by Steven. He felt that this was the right time to make his move.
(Steven's POV)
"Hey Connie, as it's Valentine Day, I'm sure you wouldn't mind telling me whether there's any lucky boy who you like, would you?" I asked tactfully, sounding as casual as possible. Connie turned her head so she could face me. She answered my question, "Yeah Steven. There's a cute boy that I've been crushing on for a couple of years. We see each other every single day and I like to hang out with him. I just hope he likes me. What about you? Is there any special lady that you like?". I told her, "Yeah Connie, there is. She's a beautiful, amazing girl and I want to spend my life with her. I love her so,so much, but I just don't know how to propose to her. Besides, I doubt I should, because she sees me as just her bestie". Connie asked me another question, "Steven, you don't mind telling me who is this very special lady, do you?". I gave a light smile and told Connie, "I don't need to tell you who she is...because I am talking to her at this very moment" before grinning like a madman. it took Connie a while to realise I Steven was talking about her, because after 10 seconds she exclaimed "I actually have been crushing on you hard for some time now. You know that, right?". She seems to be agitated. Then, I flung myself onto her and gave her a deep kiss on the lips. once we're were done. I caressed her hand and kissed the back of her hand. She was looking at me lovingly. I asked Connie, "Connie, I am in love with you deeply and madly. Do you love me back?". "I do, Universe, I do," Connie quipped. Then, she grabbed me close to her and kissed me again. It was a deep as our first one, but this time, it had more passion. We had to catch our breath when the kiss was over. "Connie, did you like the kisses we had?" I asked. She smiled bashfully teliing me,"I liked the first one more, because you caught my completely by surprise. You enjoyed the kisses, don't you Steven?". "Yeah, I liked the taste of your lips. I MEANT I LIKED THE KISS!" I exclaimed as I had only realised what I had originally said only after I said it. But Connie didn't seem to mind as she had just giggled. She looks so cute when she does that
(Connie's POV)
I have been blushing hard ever kiss we had our first kiss and Steven has been blushing like crazy like that. I never expected him to like me even though I am in love in with him madly. This was surely the best day of my life. "Hey Steven, let's go to the beach house. It's almost getting dark." I suggested. Steven said, "Sure, let's go", with an endearing smile and loving gaze. We got up and silently walked towards the beach house together with our hands clasped together, feeling content that we had diffused the romantic tension between us and that we had finally professed our feelings towards each other.
