As Steven went off his Dad's van, he waved. "Thanks!" As Peridot saw Steven she felt a strange feeling in her stomach, but also felt excited.
"Hi Steven!" Peridot exclaimed. "Hey Peridot. How's Lapis doing?"
"Excellent! We're friends now, so no more arguments," Peridot replied. "So what do you want to do?"
"Well I was thinking we go to the Big Donut and eat something. Ever tried eating? Amethyst likes it. You might too," Steven replied. "I guess so," Peridot said, "since I have nothing else better to do."
-Time Skip to the Big Donut-
The bell door rang as Steven opened it. "Hi Sadie!" Steven exclaimed. "Two chocolate donuts, please." Steven said. They got their donuts and sat on the bench near the temple. Peridot was hesitant to eat at first, but after a small taste she devoured it. "Do you want to stay with me at the temple?" Steven asked. "Sure, I guess so," Peridot said as she blushed slightly.
STEVEN P.O.V.
"Steven, how do you do of 'the sleep'"? Peridot asked me. I told her, "Well, you just get comfortable, think of nothing then lie down. You can sleep next to me if you want." I blushed while saying the last part. Was I starting to like Peridot? I'm not sure.. "Uhm, okay, she said nervously while she had a dark-green tint on her cheeks.
PERIDOT P.O.V.
For some reason I felt very warm and slightly fuzzy whenever I was around Steven. My cheeks started to heat up, and my heart beats fast. I don't understand. Maybe I'm getting used to the earth's atmosphere? Probably not. I've been on here for about 1 earth revolution already.
STEVEN P.O.V.
After Peridot and I climbed up on the bed, we both fell asleep.
I woke up. I checked my alarm clock, it was 11:52. Peridot looked so cute when she was sleeping. I blushed at the thought of it. I heard small noises from her sleep that made me want to squeal. It was adorable. I couldn't help myself. I put my arms around her waist and I put my head between her shoulder and her neck, snuggling with her.
