Author's Note: This idea immediately came into my head and I knew I just had to write this idea down.
This is set in the Gravity Rises/Momswap Au involving Jasper during Steven's time as a baby and her missing Rose.
Evermore.
"There we go, little guy go to sleep," whispered Greg finally putting his infant son to sleep in his arms.
"Thanks for letting me crash here for awhile, Ford."
Ford stood outside the door of his Shack, "It's the least I could do, Greg after everything you've done for me. By the way any thing strange happening with Steven?"
"You mean has his gem done anything since…" Greg paused and his smile dropped to a sad expression remembering that as what he gained so he had lost.
Ford understood and placed his hand on Greg's shoulder, "I'm sorry, Greg.
"It's okay, I just wish she could see him," said Greg gently touching little Steven's face.
"I'm sure she would love him too," Ford smiled at the little one. "Now come on we need our rest as well."
Ford went inside as Greg followed too, but not before looking at the temple wondering how the Gems where handling all of what's happened in the past month.
Unaware a pair of orange eyes watching him and the baby until they went inside, out of all the Gems that took Rose passing hard, no one could tell what the strong Quartz solider was feeling.
Rose death hit her hard but she stood strong for the others and herself, as for her feelings towards the child?
Rose made her promise to protect him as Jasper had sworn to protect her.
She never gone back on her word but looking at that child made her think of the one she had lost, failed, and loved.
She started to walk back to the temple slowly taking her time then stopped for a moment and looked back at the shack.
Jasper: I was the strongest of them all, I was the master of my fate.
I never needed anybody in my life. I learned the truth to late.
She touched her face and pulled back her hair, trying to ignore the tears that where slowly building.
Jasper: I'll never shack away the pain. I close my eyes but she's still there.
I let her steal into my melancholy heart, it's more then I can bear.
Jasper looked back at the Shack, tears parting away form her gem.
Jasper: Now I know she'll never leave me, even as she passed away.
She then continued her march back to the temple.
Jasper: She will still torment me, calm me, hurt me, move me come what may.
Residing in our humble temple, waiting by an open door.
She finally managed to reach the temple but stopped midway.
Jasper: I'll fool myself she'll walk right in, and be with me for ever more.
Instead of going in to her room she started to run around the mountain walking up the hill where the statue stood was carved in.
Jasper: I rage against the trials of love. I curse the fading of the light.
Though she's already flown so far beyond my reach, she's never out of sight.
She finally managed to reach the top of the hill and looked down to where the shack would be and where Rose's last gift, the last trace of her rests.
Jasper: Now I know she'll never leave me, even as she fades from view, she will still inspire me, be a part of everything I do.
Residing in our humble temple, waiting by an open door.
Japser sat down on the hill continuing her watch.
Jasper: I'll fool myself she'll walk right in, and as the long, long nights begin.
I'll think of all that might have been, waiting here. For. Evermore!
And there she stood watching the shack, watching the child, even as the sun rose.
The End.
Author's notes, I don't care what you guys think of the 2017 Beauty and the Beast, I love that song and I enjoyed that movie….even if Emma Watson can't sing.
When I listen to that song today and looked at the Momswap I instantly knew that this would be a good Momswap Jasper song.
