Connie opened the door. The whole gang was there: Garnet, Amethyst, Pearl, Lapis, Peridot and also Greg who immediately rushed up to Steven to give him a hug.
"Oh, schtu-ball! How are you feeling?" Greg asked worriedly.
"Could be better," Steven simply replied returning the hug.
"Greg, I hope you remember that there's something we need to talk," Pearl interrupted hesitatingly.
"Yes..." Greg murmured in return backing away
"And Connie could you-" Garnet started but Steven cut her off trying to seem confident, "I told her everything so she's staying."
After Steven's statement Connie sat next to him where she previously was sitting making Garnet sigh and come inside being followed by everybody else.
"Sooo.. Connie... Do you have anything to say?" Garnet started with a question Connie didn't expect.
"I didn't think that this would happen... I know it was my mistake to act that way but back then I needed a little bit of space..." Connie answered guiltily.
"You could've told him that but you just decided to pretend that his texts were non existent. During the sickness even though he should be worrying about himself he was constantly mumbling your name." Garnet continued proving her point.
"I-I wanted to talk about it in person..." uttered Connie.
"You could've tell him that!" Scolded Garnet trying to stay calm.
"Well... umm..." murmed Connie helplessly making Garnet raise her eyebrow, which obviously nobody saw due to her visors.
"Actually what about YOU? You didn't tell me a thing!" Connie disagreed angrily, "because of the silence I thought he didn't want to talk yet either!"
"We didn't think it was your fault! We didn't want you to get caught up in this mess!" Garnet retorted.
"But what if I WANT to get caught up in this mess!" Connie protested, "I'm actually a Crystal Gem too even though I don't have a gemstone I trained to be a part of this group! Steven is very dear to me so I need to know if anything happens to him !"
"Garnet, Connie's right..." Pearl stepped into the argument, "you need to forgive her."
"Let's vote: whoever thinks we should forgive her raise your hand up" spoke up Garnet.
Steven's hand shot right up which was followed by 4 other hands. After a moment of thinking Garnet put both her hands up too to show that both Ruby and Sapphire agreed.
"I'm sorry Connie, I was being over protective," Garnet sighed taking oh her visors and kneeling down to look directly at Connie and Steven, "but now we will to take Steven back home for him to get better there but of course you can visit. It's actually recommended since that's what make Steven feel better and also now you're a couple..."
Both Connie's and Steven's faces got red and some snorts and giggles were heard from behind Garnet.
"So, Steven. How are you feeling? Do you think you're ready to go," Lapis asked.
"Uhh... Well I think I want to stay for one more night. If you're okay with it..." Steven answered slowly
"I guess we will leave now so it's time for hugs!" Amethyst exclaimed now that the atmosphere wasn't toxic anymore.
Steven stood and immediately got embraced by the gems.
owowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowowo
Everybody has the house but Peridot stayed behind.
"Ok so did you two kiss yet?!" Peridot demanded an answer.
"W-what?! N-no!" Stuttered blushing Steven
"But did you TRY to kiss or ALMOST kissed?!" Peridot pushed on.
After a long awkward silence Connie answered, "yes, now shoo!"
"YES! NYE HE HE HE HE! I ALWAYS SHIPPED CONNVERSE!" Peridot screamed loudly and run out of the house after the gems and Greg.
"What is she even talking about?..." questioned Steven for Connie only to shrug in return.
"That doesn't matter since now we're over all the drama!" Steven said grinning.
"That was... Easier and quicker than I thought?..." Connie sighed from relief.
"Yeah..." Steven simply answered.
