Chapter: 2, POV: Steven U.
I know what you are thinking. "Why are you so scared of falling on soft clouds?" Well it like this. When I'm scared, or in strong emotions, the room makes the scene match my feelings. Like now, I'm falling over a volcanic island that is erupting. Back to the story.
We're falling over the island by 55ft. So I held Connie close to my chest, yelling loud enough that she can hear me, "I'm sorry, Connie! If this is the end, I want that-I doing this out of love!"
I put her in a bubble, & sent her away before she could protest.
'It's alright now.' I thought to myself. 'She okay, & that's all that matters.'
I had 25 ft left. I was making my last thought about Connie. I was 10 ft away when I fainted.
Two hours later...
I'm awaken by what felt like warm water.
'Amethyst better not be pulling a prank.' I thought to myself.
"Steven...please...wake up...!"
I hear crying.
"Please Steven...don't leave me!"
I open my eyes. I see Connie crying. That's when I remembered what happen.
I lifted one of my hands up towards Connie. Hands that were scratched up, & clothes that are burned.
"Steven?!" Connie said she turned mad, punching me in the face."Don't you ever to that again! You had me worried sick! Goof-ball!"
I couldn't help but giggle a little.'Well, I tell she's alright.' I thought to myself.
I felt myself moving up & down. I grabbed with my right hand at what was under me.
"ARGGGH!"
I was shocked. "L-lion?" I said weakly. I looked back at Connie."Where are we?"
"We're going to my house. It's past 11:00."
"Sorry if your folks curse you out."
"It alright. I'm just glad you are all right."
"You know I was more worried about you."
"Yeah." She paused."Steven?"
"Yeah Connie?"
"The Gems want me to tell you something."
"What?" She was starting to cry.
"They said we couldn't be, talk, or see each other to each other."
Those words stung like a dagger to the heart.
