A/n So I finished Watching worn to the Sword and it was so sad! I love the history of Rose and Pearl! When Pearl said, "Why can't you just let me do this for you rose?!" Me and my sister screamed! I was so heartbroken. Poor Pearl!...Hmm?...Oh! The story, right! They will go on a date soon, but I had an idea for the story first. You know, This chapter kinda reminds me of when Bella had that dream in Twilight...even though none of the events are really the same :/...I actually like Twilight! Don't judge me!

Pearl slept on the couch once more that night, Garnet in her own room. Pearl could always be in her own room, but since gems didn't require sleep, she didn't have a bed. She never really had one. And because of the baby, she found herself requiring a few hours of sleep a day. It was a great nuisance when she felt tired, but..sleeping, like Amethyst had said, felt pretty nice. What interested her the most about sleeping, was the dreams. Since she didn't sleep often, she didn't remember any dreams she had ever had. So far, her dreams had been shapeless blurs that she hardly ever remembered. But tonight..tonight was different.

She found herself standing on the battlefield, flames all around her. She could hardly see past all of the smoke. She tried to clear her vision by waving her hand to fan off the smoke, but to no avail. it entered her mouth, into her lungs, and she began to cough. t got worse and worse, as she hacked and coughed, the smoke filling her lungs. Her eyes filled with tears from the stinging in her eyes. She couldn't breath! "Pearl.." She looked up, she kew that voice.

"R-rose?" she wheezed.

"Pearl, you need to be strong.." she said, but it was hardly audible, as her voice sounded..garbled. She could feel something materialize around her neck. It was..Garnet. Her hand was gripping tightly to her throat, restricting her breathing. She could feel the squeezing grow tighter and tighter. She looked up desperately at Garnet, she could hardly speak, so she used eyes to try and beg her to stop. She was able to look over her shoulder to look at Rose. Now Rose held a small bundle of blankets, and she could faintly hear a soft crying coming from the blankets, and little fists poking out of it.

"You have to fight..for your baby." She heard her say. Pearl vision was blurring greatly. What did she mean? Why didn't she help her? Her knees buckled and she sank down, Garnet still gripping her neck. She could hear more sounds in the background.

"Pearl!" "Pearl your going to be okay!" Steven? Amethyst? She could hear one final word being spoken, by Garnet, pure malice in her voice.

"Your nothing..."

Pearl sat up with a gasp, her head spinning, her stomach churning, and her chest screaming. Her fragile body shook, as she instinctively placed her arm around her stomach, being only nine weeks along, she still wasn't showing yet. Her other hand was placed on her mouth as her troublesome nausea began to return. She began to fight against it, before realizing that she was making a mistake. She had tried to do that before, but that led to some...messy mistakes. She now found herself dry heaving into the sink, in the dark. She had not eaten for a few hours before, because she hated being sick. It concerned the other gems, but she still refused. So nothing was coming out. She didn't realize that she had been crying until she felt the warm tears on her face. She sighed and wiped them away. She was feeling miserable.

More importantly, what did that dream mean? Garnet strangling her probably sowed how she still felt a bit unsafe with garnet. Rose being there..maybe it was just showing that she would protect her. And the flames...maybe just her memories mixing in. She wiped at her eyes again, sniffling a bit before returning to the couch. Thankfully, they couldn't hear her dry heaving from the other gems rooms or Steven's room, so they didn't come out. She lie back down, and stared at the ceiling. Her mind was running too fast for her. So she stood and went out the door, and stood on the patio, staring out at the night sky. She found the moon over the ocean to be one of her favorite sights.

She was honestly feeling very frightened. The dream had to have a had a secret meaning. Could it be foreshadowing the future. no, arnet would never hurt her!.well she did hurt her before, but that was only becasue she was mad..but she could always get mad again. She sighed again and turned around and went back inside. She lie back on the couch, suddenly feeling very fautiged. She feel asleep soon after, into a dreamless slumber.

A/N Next chapter in their date! And then i'm going to time skip a bit. I'm skipping to when Pearl is twelve weeks along because i believe that is when a women begins showing. so the'll go maternity shopping! (Even though she isn't showing all that much -3-) So if you have an oc you want to be the store manager, then let me know through PM. I might have him/her show up again in the story. If I don't get a request then I'll just use my oc Dawn. See you in the next chapter. Oh and please see my profile page for stories that i'm needing help with. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
