(A/N: So this chapter is literally crack fiction. omg. I apologize, but read this with humor because I laugh so hard when I read it. omg, enjoy. )

Ruby and Sapphire sat in the back of the coffee shop as always on their very early morning date. It was the only time the place was empty enough for them to not be seen by other students.

"You have the cutest smile, you know that?" Ruby flirted.

Sapphire giggled in response.

"Yeah," Ruby grinned, "That smile."

"Oh, Rubes," she giggled.

Motion out of the corner of Sapphire's eye caught her attention and she looked over to the front of the shop. The employees were hanging up a banner of some kind. As they unfurled it, Sapphire caught a glimpse of what it said and nearly crushed the plastic cup of iced coffee that was in her hands.

Ruby, obviously, noticed and turned to look at the banner as well. It read, "Talent Show," then in smaller print, "Grand prize: $500 gift card for our coffee!"

"I must win," Sapphire practically growled.

Ruby was taken aback by the sudden ferocity, but also a little turned on. She forced herself to focus on the more important thing, though.

"I bet you could win; you're amazing at singing," Ruby commented, as she remembered all the times Sapphire had sung her to sleep on those nights when she had trouble doing so.

Sapphire wasn't listening.

"Five hundred dollars of coffee," she announced as though it was the best prize ever. And to her, it was. She was literally addicted to the stuff.

Ruby nervously chuckled, "You really like coffee, don't you?"

She nodded as she took a sip from her now busted up cup, "But in order to assure my win, I'll have to recruit Amethyst. She'll be able to pick up the slack from my lack of dancing skills.

"Wow, you're really taking this seriously."

"Of course," Sapphire said, dialing back her intensity, a bit worried that it was scaring Ruby too much.

But then as one of the employees walked by, Sapphire caught his attention, "Excuse me?"

"Yes," the young man answered, politely.

"This talent show; who are the judges?"

"Um, it's all of the employees."

"So, all guys?" she murmured under her breath, then she spoke at normal volume and asked with the most innocent face, "Are any of you gay?"

"W-what?!" the man shouted in embarrassment, "Um, no. We-We're all straight."

"Okay, thank you," Sapphire nodded and then turned back to Ruby, ending the conversation.

The employee walked off confused.

"What was that all about?" Ruby asked, bewildered.

"It's always good to know your judges. And now I know Amethyst will agree to perform since we won't be doing show tunes."

"That's a little offensive to gay people, you know?"

Sapphire was surprised by the thoughtful comment, but shrugged and flatly said, "I've seen Wicked twenty times, so I'm pretty sure there's some sort of correlation."

"Well, when I saw Lion King on broadway I guess it was cool."

Sapphire's eyes lit up as she leaned toward the other in excitement. Ruby couldn't help but find it adorable.

Sapphire marched into her dorm room after her date with Ruby and went up to Amethyst, who was still half asleep in her bed.

"Amethyst."

"What?" she whined.

"I have a favor to ask."

Ame looked up, "What's in it for me?"

Sapphire put a hand on her hip, "You get to dance like a slut in front of a bunch of people and you can invite Pearl and Garnet to watch."

Ame cuddled back into her blankets, but gave a thumbs up.

It was the night of the show and the coffee shop had been fixed up with a small stage and extra seating. Garnet and Pearl were sitting at a table, chatting and watching the performances before Amythyst's.

Sapphire was toward the back of the shop with the other contestants. She frowned as her eyes kept a steady gaze on the front door. Ruby still wasn't here, so she was worried, but once her and Amethyst were called up, Sapphire had to try and forget about it because, damn, did she want that free coffee.

As they got onto the stage, upbeat and moderately fast music began to play. Everyone in the room was floored when the sweet, little Sapphire they knew began to straight up rap in the most streamlined and delicate way. Ame sung back up vocals and was constantly wiggling her hips to the beat. The crowd was enjoying the performance, as well as the judges. Pearl and Garnet were thoroughly flustered.

"Oh, god. I'm so late," Ruby grumbled as she ran down the street to the coffee shop. She had been forced to stay extra late in class to make up for her constantly zoning out during the lesson.

As she made it to the door and opened it, she was met with the sexiest Sapphire she had ever seen. And that was saying a lot because they had plenty of sex.

She was on that stage shaking her ass in very tight jean shorts and singing with a hot breathiness to her voice.

Ruby zoned out for about the hundredth time that day, but this time it was solely because of Sapphire. She slowly walked up toward the stage to get a better look because of all the people standing around. By the time she had gotten up to the front, the song had ended and Sapphire was skipping cutely off the platform smiling at Ruby, happy that her girlfriend had made it in time to see at least part of the song.

In the excited atmosphere, Sapphire was expecting, at the most, a hug from Ruby as she walked over, but not even Ruby was prepared for what she did next. With a lust-fogged brain, Ruby grabbed at her girlfriend and made them wobble and fall down.

"Ruby, what are-"

Ruby cut the other's words off with a long, needy kiss as she straddled the girl. Her hands took purchase on Sapphire's breasts, kneading them thoroughly, just the way she liked and that made Sapphire lose herself for a few moments. But when she got the chance, she pushed Ruby up and away from her.

"Ruby, everyone is watching."

Blushing profusely, Ruby slowly glanced up without moving. Sure enough, everyone in the shop was now staring at them. Her lapse in judgment had just outed them to a good amount of the student population.

Ruby looked back down to Sapphire with a painful expression, "I…I'm so sorry. This is bad. What am I going to-"

Sapphire reached up and pulled the other down for another kiss, "It will be okay, Ruby. I'll be by your side."

"R-really?" she asked, her eyes welling up with tears.

"Yes, I love you."

"I love you, too," Ruby brightly exclaimed through her tears and smothered Sapphire with more kisses. No one else's opinion seemed to matter anymore.

And after that lovely lesbian display, the judges awarded Sapphire with the grand prize.
