Beach City High Chapter 2

I need to speed things up so please don't comment on the lack of a descriptive paragraph. More Dialog based chapters are coming. Enjoy!

I do not own Steven Universe!

"Dude you seriously need to just ask her already!" Marty says, already getting a pizza out and popping it in the microwave. They were doing homework that night at a local diner.

"I can't just flat out ask her to be my girlfriend Marty. What if I say something stupid or do something stupid?" Greg questions his friend as he struggles with his chemistry homework. (Shocker)

Vidalia takes a sip of her lemonade. "Maybe tomorrow you can ask her if she could help you finish up your chemistry homework. That would be considered a study date?"

Greg rolls his eyes and closes his science book with a grumble. "Not a date."

Vidalia and Marty both winks at each other and laughs. Greg takes his keys out for his van and goes for the exit. His friends, realizing that he is their ride home, quickly grab their things and follows him.

LATER THAT NIGHT

It was a cold night and Greg pulled the blankets over himself as the heater silently vibrates next to him. The silence was comforting for him and he slowly drifts off to sleep.

Until a loud bang rocked the whole van. Greg awakens to find a crowd of muggers surrounding his home. However, he didn't notice a lady dressed in white and pink standing on top of his van, until she saw him.

"Greg?" The woman gasps as she recognizes Greg as a non-mugger.

"Rose, what the heck are you doing on top of my van?"

"I'll explain later! Can you drive the van away from here?" Rose questions as she lands next to him.

"Not before you give us your shiny belly button little missy!" One of the muggers shouted as he rushes to grab the woman, but Greg intercepted him with a body slam.

"I suck at Chemistry, but I aced my driving exam! Get in." With that answer, Rose opens the door and closes it behind her, making one of the mugger's slam face first into it. Greg forgetting that his van was a mess for the time being steps on the gas.

Before they knew it, they were at Rose's house.

Greg was hyperventilating as he just realized that Rose's house was a mansion. Rose told him that he doesn't have to worry about those muggers anymore because she called the police on them. Still, getting involved in a near-theft is scary enough.

"Greg, wait here for a moment please. Just got to explain to my sisters about what happened." Rose smiles softly at him causing Greg's still beating heart to beat faster. She turns and steps into the mansion.

The moment that Greg was alone, he hunches over and relieves himself about what he had just experienced. He knew what happened to him and Rose wasn't as traumatic as what his parents had to go through. The unwanted feelings were once again overcoming his thoughts. The teen tries to slow his breathing.

"Hello Mr. Universe, what brings you to my establishment?" a cold feeling sent chills up Gregs spine at the voice.

"Good evening Miss Yellow. I was just-" He began but was interrupted by Rose's sudden appearance.

"Oh Yellow, I invited him for a study session! He was having trouble with todays homework." She blurts out, grabbing Greg's hand and dragging him inside.

Yellow, still confused that Rose brought a boy over (a boy she dislikes for a reason) for a study session, lets it slide knowing that her sister will tell her later.

"Rose?"

"Greg, grab your book and shut up."

THE MORNING AFTER

Greg opens his eyes and wonders why his shirt was off. Then it hit him. Oh, it hit him hard.

Rose wakes up to find that Greg had written a note that says that he was at the library. The woman knew him well, just being in class with him in every subject, he wasn't there. So, she called Marty who told her that he wasn't there either. Rose knew he was lying but never pressed it.

Marty sat with Vidalia at lunch. Rose looked for Greg but never found him. Knowing he needed space was crucial for what happened. The teen knew better than ask his friends.

"Hey Rose, you look great today." Pearl commented on her dress (that she wore the day before) and failed to notice. Rose sighs as she silently grabs her friends' hand and drags her to the nearest bathroom. "Whoa-"

Rose told her what she and Greg did last night. What she was feeling after and how Greg must be feeling now. Pearl stayed silent before opening her mouth to give out a silent scream. It was then that a little kid and a taller woman entered the bathroom.

Rose, in tears, opens her arms as Amethyst rushes into her arms to comfort her. Garnet, aware that a shock Vidalia was in a stall, hugs Rose with a loving and caring embrace. She, however, knows what that night created and how so many futures could happen.

"Are you able to go back to class now? Yellow is concerned about you." Pearl asks softly brushing tears away from her friend's face. Rose gave her a semi-smile before walking to the sink and cleaning up. Once she was cleaned up, the teen links her friends arms together with her own and walks them out of the bathroom.

Vidalia breaths out when the group of friends exit.

"Oh, Greg you shattered her heart." She whispers to herself as she exits after the bell rang.

I KNOW I RUSHED THINGS OKAY, BUT I WANT TO GET THE PLOT MOVING A LITTLE!

Ahem, sorry. I kind of rushed it but Greg will show up again… soon.

Yellow is Rose's older sister and Greg's nemesis (you think she would give him credit for saving Rose but next chapter you will find out Yellow's reaction)
