Hey everybody, I'm back with another chapter since I am extremely bored. I do not own the characters but there will be nothing sexual so don't worry. Anyway here we go.
Chapter 2
The next day Garnet got dressed in her excersising clothes and packed her bag and started heading for the gym she had a membership with. She loved being at home doing stuff but sometimes she gets pretty lonely since she was the only one living there. The others come by sometimes but it still feels lonely to her, Garnet locked her door and stepped outside going to her driveway and taking the tarp off a shiny black and red motorcycle. She got the helmet strapped on and started the bike driving down the street. When she got to her gym she parked her bike and stepped off and as she was looking up she saw a figure walking down the sidewalk on the other side and of the street. It was Pearl but she was talking and laughing with someone she didn't know, Garnet decided to walk across the street and greet Pearl.
"Hey Pearl, it's good to see you again" Garnet replied stepping in front of then.
"Oh hello Garnet, nice to see you too. This is my good friend Rose Quartz, Rose this is the woman I told you about" Pearl introduced. Garnet looked at Rose and said that she was a head taller than her and had pink, curly hair.
"So this is the one who stole my dear friend's heart! It's nice to meet you Garnet! Pearl told me about you over the phone and she wouldn't stop for nothing" Rose replied with a big smile.
"Let's not get into details of that phone call please, anyway what are you doing here Garnet?" Pearl asked.
"I go to that gym across the street, I had just parked my bike when I saw you and see decided to say hi" Garnet answered.
"I was just on my way to my ballet teaching class but how about we go get something to eat when we're done?" Pearl suggested.
"Sure, I'll text you when I'm done and we'll meet here" Garnet answered.
"Great, I better get going before I'm late. See you later Garnet" Pearl replied walking past her with Rose following. Garnet adjusted her shades and went back across to the street entering the gym to see Jasper teaching weight lifting.
"I saw you Garnet, saw your crush now did you?" Jasper asked.
"Shut up Jasper it's none of your business" Garnet replies taking off her jump suit to reveal a tank top and basketball shorts.
"I'm the one who hooked you guys up, I deserve to know the details" Jasper replies.
"We're not even together yet so I owe you nothing" Garnet replied wrapping her hands in white tape as she went over to the punching bags.
"I will get you to tell me Garnet" Jasper exclaimed, Garnet relished the challenge. After punching the bags a little and running the treadmill she put on some gloves and hopped into the ring with boxing gloves and a helmet. She looked across the way and saw Jasper doing the same, "this is how this go, if I knock you to the mat three times you tell me all the details but if you beat me I'll leave you alone deal?" she suggested.
"Deal" Garnet replied making sure everything was on right before getting into a stance. Jasper may be strong and she would have the advantage that is if Garnet wasn't fast as she is. They both bumped fists and stood facing each other, Jasper took the first swing as a test and stepped back. Garnet saw how Jasper was analyzing her body to see if she could find a quick opening, while Jasper was distracted Garnet threw a quick punch catching Jasper in the stomach. Jasper breathed out a little at the punch but otherwise she was unfazed.
"That was dirty Garnet" Jasper replied with a smirk.
"You should pay more attention to your opponent" Garnet replied. As her and Jasper got into a real heated competition Garnet never noticed Pearl walked in the gym trying avoid all the sweaty people. Pearl went up to the ring to watch the battle. Jasper threw a couple of strong punches that Garnet deflected and dodged but she miscalculated and a punch connected with her gut knocking the wind out of her, Jasper then kicked her legs out from under her making her fall to the fall and someone started counting.
"1...2...3...4" the man counted.
"Get up Garnet! Don't let that punch take you down!" Pearl exclaimed. Garnet looked up at her and wobbled to her feet and the red started counting.
"That was one Garnet, two more and I win" Jasper replied.
"I won't lose to you Jasper" Garnet replied determined. They continued with the challenge and after one good punch from Garnet in Jasper's jaw she was laid out on the floor breathing heavily.
"Okay you win, I give" Jasper replied sitting up and rubbing her jaw.
"Sorry about your jaw Jasper" Garnet replied holding her hand out.
"It's cool Garnet, I need to get going anyway. Besides, I think there is someone waiting for you outside" Jasper replied taking off the equipment and left he ring. Garnet took a quick shower and packed her back running outside.
"Nice job in there Garnet, I didn't know you were a boxer" Pearl replied.
"I'm not really a boxer for real, I just like hitting people" Garnet replied
"I see, anyway shall we get that food now?" Pearl replied.
"Yeah, you have been on a motorcycle right?" Garnet replied taking out her helmet and an extra.
"Not really, this would be my first one" Pearl replied putting on the helmet and sat behind Garnet on the bike as she started it up.
"Hang on tight now" Garnet warned.
"What do you mean by tha- AHHHHHHHH!" Pearl asked gripping onto Garnet as she raced down the street. After driving for awhile they arrived a nice sandwich place and Garnet parked her bike and looked back to see Pearl nearly passed out.
"You okay there?" Garnet asked with a slight chuckle.
"Y-Yes, just a little shaken up" Pearl replied getting off and wobbling a little.
"That scream was adorable by the way, never knew you had a strong set of pipes" Garnet replied.
"Yes well it was my first time on a bike, and on top of that my driver was a speed demon" Pearl explained.
"Sorry, you get used to it when the wind blows past your face" Garnet added.
"So what are we getting?" Pearl asked.
"I'm getting a sandwich, get whatever you like" Garnet answered.
"I'll just settle for with a light chicken sandwich, not a very big eater" Pearl replied.
"That's fine, each to their own I guess" Garnet chuckled.
"So I know we talked over the phone but we don't know much about each other, why don't we start with some backstory?" Pearl replied.
"Okay, well I am an only child and I have two mothers. One is Ruby, she's African and the other is Sapphire who is British and my accent is a mix of theirs. I graduated college with a degree in physical education and I live alone. What about you?" Garnet asked.
"Well I am also an only child and both of my parents are French although one of them may be American since I don't have a French accent. I graduated college with a degree in dance and history and I also live alone but I usually have Rose's son Steven over so I'm not entirely alone" Pearl explained.
"That's good, being alone isn't a good feeling but most people see me and feel intimidated. Am I intimidating to you?" Garnet asked.
"Of course not, I mean you were at first but now I see you're just like me. You're just trying to make a living like everyone else" Pearl answered.
"Very philosophical for you to say" Garnet replied.
"Well that's what happens when your best friend is a philosophy major" Pearl replied back with a sigh.
"Listen, I know this was just a little lunch but I would like to take you out to dinner, unless you don't want to which I totally understand if you don't" Garnet replied quickly.
"I would love too, I have to get home but come by Friday at 8 to pick me up. I'll send you my address" Pearl replied standing up.
"Do you need a ride?" Garnet asked standing up quickly.
"No I just texted Rose, I think it will be awhile before I get back on your bike. My head is still spinning" Pearl laughed.
"Okay I'll walk you out and wait with you until then"" Garnet replied throwing away the trash and opening the door letting Pearl out and then she followed.
"You should drop my ballet studio when you have the chance, I could use a partner to teach the girls the new routine I have in mind" Pearl replied.
"Sure, just text me when you want me to come and I'll be there if I can" Garnet agreed.
"Good, well there's Rose but I'll see you Friday for dinner. Enjoy you're evening!" Pearl exclaimed getting in the pink car and driving down the street disappearing into the traffic.
"I look forward to it, Pearl" Garnet replied putting on her helmet and driving off on home on her bike.
