Chapter 4: Chille Tid 2

Universe Residence

As the kids were playing in their room, the phone rang, to which Steven picked it up.

"Hello?" said Steven, "Oh really? Well, let me ask Connie." Steven covered the phone with his hand, "Connie."

"Yes Steven?" said Connie.

"It's the Gems, they were asking if we could come to the temple to have a sleepover, or something."

"Well, I'll ask the kids, be right back." said Connie.

Steven uncovered the phone.

"So whos idea was it to have this?" said Steven, "Oh, it was Amethyst's? Well it sounds to me like it could be really fun."

Just then, Connie walked back over to Steven.

"The kids would love for a sleepover." said Connie.

"The kids are okay with it." said Steven, "Okay, see you." Steven then hung up the phone.

Crystal Gem Temple-An Hour Later

Steven, Connie and the kids walked up the steps into the temple.

"We're here!" said Steven.

"So whos idea was it to have this again?" said Connie.

"It was Amethyst's." said Steven.

"Well, it was kind of my idea as much as it was Amethyst's idea." said Pearl, "We wanted to throw this sleepover party to celebrate the kids' mastering their weapons and fusion.

"Remember when we had a sleepover all those years ago, and I was able to talk to Lapis in my dreams?" said Steven.

"We got the kids' sleeping bags and pajamas." said Connie, "Thanks for requesting we do this, it's nice when me and Steven and the kids do something creative and fun."

"Honestly, I just wanted to do this to make a good excuse to order pizza." said Amethyst.

"I'll go to Fish Stew Pizza and order a few large pizzas for the whole crew." said Steven.

Steven then walked to the door. After Steven left, the kids sat down on the couch.

"What should we do first?" said Turquoise.

"Let's play Truth Or Dare!" said Amazonite.

"One of the most embarrassing human games ever, of course." said Pearl, sighing.

Everybody sat on the floor in a circle.

"I'll go first." said Pearl, who then started laughing suspiciously at Amethyst.

"Oh I don't like that laugh." said Amethyst.

"Amethyst, truth or dare?" said Pearl, laughing suspiciously.

"Truth." said Amethyst.

"Darnit, I thought you'd pick dare." said Pearl, "Um, well, um, do you respect me?"

"Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, it really depends on the way you're acting." said Amethyst, "Connie, truth or dare?"

"Um, dare." said Connie.

"You shouldn't have picked dare." said Garnet, "When Amethyst gets to choose a dare, she thinks of the most embarrassing stuff. In fact, I know what she's going to say."

"I dare you to kiss Steven on the lips right when he gets back with the pizza." said Amethyst.

The other Gems laughed, and so did the kids.

"Amethyst, you can't be serious." said Pearl.

"Oh I'm serious." said Amethyst.

"Told you it'd be embarrassing." said Garnet.

Connie's cheeks turned as red as a cherry.

"Well, I'll do it since you dared me." said Connie.

"Connie!" said Pearl, "Kissing Steven on the lips in front of your own kids, are you crazy?"

"Yes I am," said Connie, "but they won't mind, right kids?"

The kids giggled.

"Sure," said Turquoise, giggling, "not a problem."

Three Minutes Later

Connie waited beside the front door of the temple, while Amethyst peeked out the window for Steven.

"She's actually going to do it?" said Jasper.

"This is gonna be good." said Peridot.

"I see Steven, he's nearing the steps, get ready Connie." said Amethyst, who ran back to the other Gems.

The Gems and the kids tried to keep from laughing.

The temple door opened, and Steven was there, holding 5 boxes of large pizza.

"I'm back with the piz-" suddenly, Steven's lips were suddenly met with Connie's lips.

"Oh my goodness, she actually did it!" said Jasper, who fell onto the floor laughing.

"This is hilarious!" said Peridot.

"Hahahaha!" screamed Lapis.

"Romance!" said Amazonite.

Everybody looked at Steven and Connie and laughed while Steven wrapped his arms around Connie's back, and Connie wrapped her arms around his neck as they kept kissing. Then Connie parted her lips from Steven's. Steven could not think clearly now, the kiss had put him into a love-struck state.

"Why'd you do that?" said Steven.

"It was a dare by Amethyst." said Connie, giggling a little.

"Well, I got the pizza you guys." said Steven.

Everybody was still laughing from the kiss, some were even crying now from laughing so much.

An Hour Later

It was now nighttime, and the kids were all playing games with the gems. There were large opened pizza boxes in the room.

"I'm getting tired." said Steven, yawning.

"Yeah, me too." said Connie, who also yawned.

"Ah come on you guys, there's still plenty of fun tonight, you won't wanna miss it." said Amethyst.

"Well I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting sleepy…." Steven then laid on the couch and closed his eyes.

Amethyst walked over to Steven.

"Dang, he fell asleep." said Amethyst.

"I'm gonna go to sleep too." said Connie. Connie then laid on the couch next to Steven. Steven then yawned and wrapped his arms around Connie.

"What a soft tree." said Steven in his sleep.

"I think Connie fell asleep too." said Amethyst.

"I'm gonna try something." said Amazonite.

Amazonite stepped in front of the sleeping Steven and Connie on the couch. Amazonite leaned over next to Steven's ear.

"That's not a tree, it's a cat." whispered Amazonite to Steven.

"Ooh, a cat." said Steven, who then patted Connie's hair.

"Wow Amazonite." said Amethyst.

Amazonite softly laughed and stepped away from the couch.

"That's what I call romance." said Amazonite, watching Steven, who still had his arms wrapped around Connie.

"Isn't that position called Spooning by humans?" said Peridot.

"Yes." said Garnet.

The others turned around to see Pearl, who was laying on the floor sleeping, her gem producing a hologram of her dream.

In the dream stood Pearl, the other gems, Steven, Connie, the kids, and Rose.

"Rose, you're alive!" said Pearl.

"Yes, and it's great to see you all, especially my little Steven and my grandchildren." said Rose.

"Nice to finally meet you, mother-in-law." said Connie.

"So this is your wife, Steven." said Rose, "You sure picked the right woman to marry, she's cute."

Connie then blushed.

"Mom, you're embarrassing us." said Steven, laughing.

"Hey, it's Greg." said Connie.

Greg suddenly ran over to the crew.

"Hey you guys, you're never gonna believe th-" Greg then saw Rose, "Rose! Is that really you?"

"It's been a long time Greg." said Rose.

"I can't believe it's you." said Greg.

"None of us can." said Garnet.

Suddenly, the floor turned into water, and everybody was suddenly standing on dolphins. Everyone was then surfing on the dolphins, and then reached the shore. Around them was palm trees and sand.

"Hey, we're in Hawaii." said Connie.

Pearl then woke up.

"Well, that was some dream." said Pearl.

"And we saw it all." said Jasper.

Pearl then blushed a bit.

"You know, I think we should go to bed, I am pretty tired now." said Turquoise.

Turquoise wrapped herself in her sleeping bag and zipped it up, and so did the other two kids.

"Chille Tid." said Garnet.
