Since the events that happened in the Zoo some weeks had passed and even though at the beginning Blue was trying to ignore everything, more days passed and the memories of that day came back to her. This would not be a problem if they didn't bring with them…. feelings.

That warmth, that confidence, that peace...something completely opposite to what she had been feeling for the last 5000 years. It was something she thought she had forgotten or she even started to think never existed at the first place.

However, Blue didn't only think about that specific event (which she had decided not to name), but also about what happened before that. The closeness she had experienced with Yellow. Blue did know that Yellow had, in a very hidden place, feelings, but she had never experienced a connection that strong with her before. And also… that strange ritual they did, the way they put their lips together, the embrace...everything.

Blue tried her best, but it was impossible to her to not think about it. Those thoughts increased with the time and she could not stop them.

She had the urge of talking about this.

So without even notifying anyone she ended in front of Yellow's control room one day.

- It is a great pleasure to have you in this place, your clarity- said the gem who protected the door while doing the diamond salute.

- I need to talk to Yellow- said Blue in a dry tone

The guardian opened the gate.

- Pearl….you stay here- ordered Blue before entering in the room.

Blue entered the room and found Yellow in her chair, notoriously surprised by the visit.

- You should have let me know before you came here, Blue- said she in her usual angry tone.

Blue sighed.

- Yellow, I need to talk to you about something-

- About all I have had to do to remove that temple from my mines?

- In private.

Yellow looked at her in a mix of worry and surprise. But then, she sighed and rolled her eyes.

- Fine- she replied.

Yellow stared at her Pearl , she understood immediately and left the room.

The two diamonds stayed alone.

- So- Yellow continued- What is that you wanted to talk about?

- Yellow….I can't concentrate.

Yellow sighed.

- It's about Pink, I guess.

- No- Blue said in her usual sad tone- it's you.

- Me? What are you talking about?- asked Yellow confused.

- Us.

Blue just stared at her. Yellow understood.

- I thought we agreed we would forget everything what happened that day- said Yellow effusively

She put her hand in her forehead in her usual annoyed gesture.

- Oh, Blue- she continued- You know that was a terrible mistake! We must forget that. If someone had discovered us, if White- she got interrupted.

- Yellow- said Blue calmly- It felt so nice, so warm. I haven't felt like that in thousands of years.

- Are you listening to my words?!- said Yellow effusively- We are diamonds and we must lead and set an example for our gems. Blue, we can't just let our feelings- she couldn't finish her sentence.

Blue stole a kiss from here.

- Blue!- Yellow jumped back- Why are you acting like this?!

- Yellow, I agree with you. That event was inappropriate. But… what we did before that. That was not inappropriate.

Yellow frowned.

- I don't think it was appropriate either- she replied.

- Yellow, that felt nice. I have been thinking that maybe it can help us.

- Help us?- she asked annoyed- to what?

- To make us feel better.

Yellow sighed. She wanted to say she didn't need anything for feeling better, but after what she had shown to Blue last time, that excuse would not be effective.-

- Yellow- insisted Blue- Nobody is going to know about it. We can do that sometimes and if it doesn't have results we can just stop it.

Yellow just stared at Blue with a troubled face.

- Yellow- insisted Blue- Please.

Yellow rolled her eyes.

- Fine- she said dryly- But if there is a little trace that the unfortunate event that happened last time is going to occur, we will stop trying this ritual immediately.

- Yellow - said Blue happily- thank you.

Yellow just remained in silence.

- So, may I? -asked Blue.

- Again?

- Yes.

Yellow just sighed.

- Go ahead- she said.

Blue smiled and took Yellow's face with her hands and leaned forward. She tried to look at her eyes but Yellow avoided eye contact and just stared at the floor. This way, Blue reached Yellow's lips and kissed her gently.

Blue placed a gentle and long kiss in Yellow's lips. Blue closed her eyes and just felt like she was in other place. In a different place and different time, where the problems were forgotten and everything she could feel was warmth and peace.

When she opened her eyes and leaned back she was able to appreciate, just for a second, that Yellow had closed her eyes too.
