A/N:
Welcome to the first chapter of "Movie Night". I just like to go on FakeSUEpisodes' Tumblr and get ideas :D. I appreciate some "Lapidot" art from laurenzuke and apple-cores 3. Today Lapis and Peri are watching "Lights Out". I only saw the trailer so I don't know much D:. Anyways, enjoy the chapter. J
Chapter One
Amethyst sat in Steven's bedroom, shifting through some scary movies. Lapis and Peridot were sitting on the couch. Peridot was trying not to hog the bowl, but Lapis said she could get refills. "How about 'Lights Out?'" she suggested, sliding the DVD into its player. "Lapis, come get me for refills," Amethyst said. She got Lapis juice but told Peridot she needs some milk so she gave her a glass of it.
Some of the advertisements were actually amusing. They liked the one where a cow was breakdancing. A man walked in, asked: "WHAT IN THE WORLD?!" and then the cow said, "YOU NEED SOME MILK!" and held up a gallon. "Buy Moo-Moo milk," it said. "The truest milk to be." Then the actual movie played. Lapis and Peri were so scared at the end, they were THIS CLOSE () to shattering the windows with screams. Luckily they fought the urge to scream and yelp in terror. But my point is, the movie was scary, duh.
Lapis and Peridot hugged each other. They felt as though they could sense a presence, yes, a presence, but a ghostly one. Peridot whimpered while Lapis whined. Then they heard a loud pounding. BUMP BUM. BUM BUMP. Then they heard a door open and shut. Tightly.
Peridot carried Lapis and her tablet and ran into Steven's bathroom, screaming. Well, she tried, because Lapis' foot was in the way of her vision. But. Whatever. They still made it. Peridot shut the door with her powers and locked it. Steven left his phone in the bathroom. Peridot set her tablet down and carried the phone. She left it hovering above her hands.
There was a message from Amethyst. She told Steven she was leaving the house, and texted Peri a little after. Lapis shivered. She was uncomfortable because she was usually an introverted gem; she was usually a little shy when meeting someone, even though she met Peridot a few months later, after returning to Homeworld.
Peridot felt uncomfortable too. She thought it was embarrassing when she met with Lapis again (in Same Old World). Even though they were from salty birds transformed into jam buds, nothing but a little shyness comes along and punches them in the face.
This was going to be a long night…
