Bellow Diamond Summer Bash 2020

Day 1: Change | Healing

Yellow was sitting at her desk, working on a Citrine that had been used as an experiment for the Cluster. She was careful but she already had fixed many gems that were broken by her experiments to get rid of the Earth. Citrine was a friend of Chert's and Flint's, they found her around where the Cluster was. Yellow wasn't paying attention really until she heard the familiar sound that she hated. She heard a tiny explosion and the sound a gem dropping to the floor. She had used old powers again, the powers she vowed never to allow to leave her hands again. It hurt enough that she used them on the one thing she loved most over anything, even herself. She had used her powers on Blue Diamond and it still hurt to this day. Her non- existent heart ached every time that she thought of it, her gem burned with guilt as well. Yellow looked down at her desk at the lifeless small, yellowish-orange gem that now was complete. She bunched up her hands in anguish and guilt, some more of her older powers escaped. She needed to leave before something else happened that she would regret.

"Hey, Pearl, could you do me a favor?" Yellow said to her old servant through the Diamond line.

"Yes, Yellow?" Yellow Pearl responded.

"Please take care of this Citrine until she reforms, I'll be indisposed for some time."

"I will, Yellow."

"Thank you, Pearl." and Yellow Diamond hung up the line.

Yellow leaned down towards her desk and breathed out, trying to calm down. But it wasn't working. Her old powers were still vibrating inside of her, wanting to get out, to be used for destruction again. Sparks started to fly off from her gloved hands again. She rushed to get up, almost tripping over her chair. Running out of her room, away, away from the pain of the past. She didn't care what gem saw her running or crying for that matter. Yellow didn't know where she was running to but somehow, she ended up in front of Blue Diamond's new room. It was where Blue would use her new powers to make gems feel better, bring happiness to them after what the Diamonds did for millennia. Yellow stood before the door, pondering whether she should go in or not. She didn't want to bother Blue and spill her emotions in her lover's, but she wanted to see her. She wanted to hold her, love her, tell her how much she was sorry for what she did to her. To feel her soft hands across her face, to be able to see her beautiful cerulean eyes stare deep into her golden ones. Yellow's body started to move, by instinct into Blue's room. She didn't knock, she already knew she was always welcome into her lover's room no matter what. Blue Diamond was laying on one of her clouds, close to the floor but not touching it. Her eyes were closed as she relaxed alone in her room. Her body laid against the cloud; it comforted the large gem. She didn't notice Yellow entering the room at all. It was empty besides the two Diamonds now. Yellow Diamond sighed and fell to her knees, her hands pressing on them as she started to cry even more. Slowly, she brought her knees to her chest and leaned against the door. Her emotions escaping her like her powers would in the past. She wasn't paying attention as her eyes burned from the tears fell. Blue woke up after hearing her counterpart fall to the floor, she knew something was wrong. Blue Diamond got up off her cloud and looked at Yellow, seeing her cry made her non- existent heartache. She walked over to Yellow, sitting next to her, wrapping her arms around her lover and resting her head on Yellow's. In a matter of seconds, Yellow reached over to Blue and pulled her lover closer to her. She laid Blue on her chest. Blue looked up towards Yellow, her face was tear-stained and her eyes red. Yellow's tears falling on Blue's face, but Blue didn't care.

"So, Yellow, what happened?" Blue Diamond asked.

"I-I poofed a gem again, Blue…with my powers…" Yellow said while she continued to cry.

"I already know that you didn't mean it, Yellow."

"But Blue, I used my powers again! The one thing I promised to never use again!"

"It was an accident, Yellow. Accidents happen, you of all people should know that."

"But, Blue, my powers aren't used for that anymore. My powers are used to help heal gems now, not poof them for long periods."

Blue sighed and continued to rub Yellow's face with her hands. Her lover stroking her bluish-white hair as they continued to talk to each other.

"Yellow, you aren't perfect, none of us are. We will always make mistakes, but we can always fix them if we try to. I know that Citrine isn't going to be mad at you after the other gems explain what happened."

"But Blue, my old powers, I-" but Blue put her finger over Yellow's mouth.

"No, Yellow, listen to me. It's alright, it will get better. Your old powers will always be there, but your new ones will always overpower them. Sure they will get out every so often but, all of the gems know that you don't mean any harm anymore. You need to rest my love; it will all get better. Trust me, now come, lay with me on one of my clouds."

"Blue…I love you so much…"

"I love you, too, Yellow. Now, lay down with me" Blue said as she walked over to a cloud big enough for both of them.

Blue laid down on the cloud first, Yellow following her after. The two diamonds intertwined their bodies. Yellow wrapped her arms around Blue while Blue rested her head on her lover's chest and her warm gem. Their legs slightly intertwined together. Blue wrapped her arms around Yellow's body as she sighed in content. The two of them rested inside of Blue Diamond's room, slowly falling asleep. They weren't disturbed by any other gems. The two Diamonds clung to each other, not wanting to let go ever. Blue and Yellow healed each other…
