Author's Note: This songfic is based on the Swap AU, a reminder to those who don't know that AU. It is where Dipper and Mabel are half gems, the son and daughter of Garnet, Rose is alive but not Pink Diamond, Steven and Greg are related to Stan and Sapphire is actually Blue Diamond…hey don't blame me blame A Single Pale Rose (Still can't get over that can you?).
This songfic takes place during the time on Homeworld where Blue Diamond and Ruby are busy living their secret romance, after all A beautiful Diamond and a mere Ruby…scandalous.
The song comes from The Lion King 2 Simba's Pride.
Love Will Find A Way.
On days where there is no talks about latest additions to zoos, no new weapons, and no new Colonies, Blue Diamond would sneak out in her Sapphire disguise. It always worked well due to her single eye and she always loved seeing everything in smaller stats.
But the main reason for this disguise is for the one thing she loves the most or who she loves the most.
It seemed like only yesterday when Blue went to one of Pink's new colonies and where she was guarded by a Ruby now Blue had seen Rubies before but she felt something different about this one. She thought that Ruby was…cute.
Both never knew how it all started, maybe a glance there, some small talks here, or a single peck on the cheek. However this whole thing started neither one of them could ever imagine living without the other.
But the love they feel for each other has never happened before in Homeworld and perhaps it should never have happened but it did. Blue knew that if her fellow Diamonds found out then they would shatter Ruby just for the thought of being near her or touching her.
So they both decided to keep their love a secret and when one or the other or both have time to sneak away from their daily lives they would meet each other at a special place at Homeworld.
It was Blue's favorite place on Homeworld, a patch where the last remnants of anything organic on Homewold. It had lovely shimmering flowers that sparkle with the stars and large glowing stones that almost seem to sing if you listen to them closely. It was there that Blue waited for her love.
Blue or in her guise Sapphire waited as she watched the stars. Deep inside her self she is filled with feelings of love but not only that feelings of fear. Fear of being discovered and the fear of watching her beloved Ruby shattered before her eye.
Sapphire held herself as she trembled but like always she would think more on a world where she and Ruby can be in love without the fear and without doubt.
Oh what a world that would be. Their world.
Sapphire: In a perfect world, one we've never known. We would never need to face the world alone.
Sapphire looked across from the field to where the city lies with the symbol of the Diamonds shown proudly and then she looked back up at the stars.
Sapphire: They can have their world, we'll create our own.
Sapphire noticed a wilted blue flower as she gently lifted it up not noticing the stones started to glow.
Sapphire: I may not be brave or strong or smart but somewhere in my secret heart.
I know.
Love will find a way, anywhere I go I'm home.
If you are there beside me like dark, turning into day.
Somehow we'll come through. Now that I found you love will find a way.
Sapphire cupped the flower up so it bath in the light but when she let go the flower wilted again, it's glow nearly faded nearly brining a tear to Sapphire.
Unaware behind the stone Ruby, Sapphire's Ruby watches her. Either in her Diamond form or as a Sapphire, the moment she saw her Ruby felt her entire body was on fire even her gem.
Ruby shared the fears of their love being discovered but mostly the fear of her love being alienated from her fellow Diamonds, some have already done that due to Blue's single eye which Ruby thought was one of the most beautifulest part of her.
And if they did, Diamonds or not Ruby would defend her love till her gem cracked all over, Rubies where made to fight and defend and so she will to fight for her love and defend her at all cost.
Ruby: I was so afraid, now I realize love is never wrong and so it never dies.
Ruby stepped out from the stone in open view, Sapphire turned her gaze away from the flower and her smile grew at the sight of her brave and beautiful Ruby.
Ruby: There's a perfect world, shining in your eye.
Both of them slowly started to walk towards each other as they placed their hands on each other, Ruby's left hand around her waist, Sapphire's right hand on her shoulder and their remaining hands held tight against the others as they started to dance as the stones glowed in a mix of blue and red.
Sapphire and Ruby: And if only they could feel it too, the happiness I feel with you.
They know.
Love will find a way. Anywhere we go, we're home, if we are there together.
Like dark, turning into day. Somehow we'll come through.
Now that I found you love will find a way.
They paused their dancing as Sapphire looked back down at the flower and to her delight, the blue flower stood up and shine bright and then its petals touched a red flower making it glow.
Ruby and Sapphire both watched the duo glow of the flowers make a Marron color that shine on them.
Ruby and Sapphire: I know love will find a way.
The couple looked at each other as they lean into a kiss.
Watching them from a distance was the only gem that knew about their secret love, Blue Diamond's Pearl. For the longest time she watched her Diamond's time with the Ruby and saw the happiness it brings to her.
Perhaps it is time they have a world of their own, The Pearl thought to herself as she looked over the star maps and noticed a developing blue planet that had yet to be colonized.
Perhaps she should inform her Diamond….maybe tomorrow.
The End.
