Steven was in a inn room with Shiro and Sora. He remembered Yukari's expression when he asked her if she'd like to join us, and she said that she didn't want to, so Steven left her. Shiro was looking through a book as Sora sat on the bed.
"Since we only have two beds, Steven can sleep on my bed, got it Shiro?" Sora asked.
"Okay." Shiro didn't look up from her book. She just turned a page.
"Um..." Steven didn't know what to say.
Steven realized that he doesn't have any pajamas, and he didn't want to change in front of Sora and Shiro! I'll get some clothes later. Steven thought. He just laid back on the bed, thinking of the Gems. And Connie. How ya doing Connie? Its me, Steven, and I thought I'd check in. Steven thought, as though he was sending a message to her. He sighed. It won't work. I'm not too sure if my Gem powers work here. Steven thought.
"Hey! Steven! You're taking up the bed!" Sora said.
"Oh, sorry!" Steven rolled to the wall so Sora had some room.
Steven closed his eyes, and went to sleep. Tomorrow is another day.
~a~
Steven woke up with Sora and Shiro still sleeping. What time is it? Steven looked out the window. It was daylight out. Oh, they sleep in. Steven thought. He just carefully got out of bed and went to go use the washroom when he saw Sora sitting up.
"Steven..? Where are you going?" Sora asked.
"Just to the washroom." Steven said.
"Oh okay... see ya when you're done." Sora said, getting out of bed.
One bathroom break later...
Steven was going back to the room when he saw Sora and Shiro going to the stairs.
"Hey guys!" Steven caught up to them.
"Hey, Steven!" Sora said, smiling.
"Ready for breakfast?" Steven asked.
"Yes." Shiro said.
"Okay, lets go!" Steven said, following them downstairs.
When they got downstairs, Steven saw the same boy from a couple days ago sitting at the table, looking at Steven. Oh boy... Steven thought.
"Hey! Black curly hair kid! Come here!" the boy said.
"You know him?" Sora asked.
"No, I just won a game of chess against him and took his backpack." Steven said.
"Oh, makes sense." Sora walked up to the table.
Steven hesitantly followed, Shiro close behind. Sora was talking to the boy.
"Hey, kid. How's it going?" Sora asked.
"I wanna rematch, Kid!" the boy didn't pay attention to Sora.
Steven sighed. "Okay, fine, you can have a rematch." he said.
"Yes! I will win in this game of chess!" the boy shouted.
Steven gulped. Will he win?
