The day after the conversation with Garnet and the friendly chat with Ruby and Sapphire was rather casual. Nothing out of the ordinary as the perfect quartz sat on Nora's couch cradling the baby boy in her arms, Sure she did not mind caring for Steven the whole day but damn she felt stiff from sitting down for the day and only moving a little. This made Jasper decide to take a stroll in the streets of beach city with Steven.

The stroll was kind of weird, sure people in beach city were used to monster attacks from now and then but seeing Jasper who towered all over them was something new. Ignoring the looks the humans gave her she continued walking casually holding baby Steven in her arms. After thirty minutes of stretching her legs and enjoying the summer breeze the perfect quartz decided to call it off for the day, ending her walk with sitting on the bench near the beach and buying a donut or two, not that she needed to eat or anything but she did enjoy the taste of food.

At the Big Donut

"So what are your plans for the end of the week Lars?" Asked Sadie

"Don't have any, probably going to Stay alone and watch some action movies… You know same boring stuff every time." Answered her coworker

"You should totally come to my place every night, I rented a lot of new movies and it would be kind of boring watching them alone."

"Not a bad idea Miller, Spending the weekend with someone is better than spending it alone."
"Yeah totally rad, I got the new killer bear movie and bringing few snacks with you will make it even better."

"Listen, when it's morning we should like buy some ingredients and bake a cake."

"Hold one Lars, I better call Nora. That Girl adores us." The blonde Big Donut worker Said

"And you had to ruin it, geez that girl is such a weirdo."

"Oh come on don't be like that, you can't blame her for always being happy."
"I do not know about you but that is annoying. She goes all day as if she's on the top of the world."

"Come on Lars, you know that she likes you and see you as a big brother to her."

"Yeah whatever you say, girl."

Just as the teen finished, the big donut door opened revealing a giant woman with pale orange skin and long hair. Lars could not say a word; she was big, even by human standards. The giant started getting closer to the counter, looking around as if she is trying to choose what to pick from the different types of donuts.

"H-h-how can I help?" The tall donut shop worker stuttered.

"Well I was hoping you could help me, I haven't eaten donuts in a while and there are lots of different new types. So what do you say?" The quartz soldier said.

Surprisingly, the giant in front of her was friendly. It shocked both of them to see such a dangerously looking Woman sounds this nice. Lars froze in his place, unable to utter a single word. Jasper looked confused.

"What's wrong with him?" The orange quartz asked, "Is it the first time he sees a quartz soldier before?" She added

"Yeah, it is the first time." The blonde worker said chuckling a bit.

"What? The big brave boy is scared of me. Come on I don't bite" Jasper Joked, "Now give me five chocolate donuts and an orange soda." She added.

"That will be 25 dollars and 50 cents," Sadie said while handing the quartz her order.

Paying for what she asked for, Jasper took the donuts and the soda and went back to the beach house.

Seeing her place on the couch was untouched, Jasper sat down and began eating what she brought back home with her. If there is, one thing she envied organics about is the ability to cook things that tasted this great. While savoring one of the donuts she heard one of the temple doors open, deciding to take a look she saw Amethyst getting out of her room. She took this as an opportunity to close to wound that the Jasper they know; get them to move on for their sake and their own.

"Amethyst, come here for a sec and eat these donuts with me."

The purple gem heard what her fellow quartz said, surprised by this sudden change of attitude displayed in front of her. She was reluctant at first but then accepted the offer. Sitting next to her, Jasper gave Amethyst a donut for her to eat. Seizing the opportunity, Jasper decided to make her move.

"So if you don't mind me asking."
"Asking about what?" Inquired the purple gem

"Listen, what I am about to ask may seem invasive but Please I need you to tell me the whole truth about what happened between you and the Jasper of this world."
"I don't want to talk about it," Amethyst said with a low tone

"Oh come on girl, I need to know." Insisted the perfect quartz

"I SAID I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!" the short quartz screamed and then stormed out of the door.

Nora P.O.V

I just got back from the arcade after challenging Sour Cream too and arcade duel. He won of course and I got my butt kicked, well next time I will make sure give him a hard time. When I reached the stairs, I saw Amethyst storming out of the door crying. That confused me; I got inside the house only to see Jasper facepalming herself… What is happening inside of this house?

Normal P.O.V

"Damn it, I screwed this up." The perfect quartz thought as she face-palmed herself. She did not notice Nora getting inside but when she did, she got the idea of asking the little girl about what happened between Amethyst and the Jasper.

"What was that all about?" The 15 years old Demi gem asked pointing her thumb at the door.

"Oh that, that is a long story."
"You know, you can talk to me about it," Nora said, putting her hand on the older gem's shoulder.

"Well, I tried to ask her about what happened between her and the Jasper of this Universe." She answered bluntly.

"That is kind of a complicated story, you should have probably asked me or Pearl or Garnet for the matter."

The quartz was shocked, she spends hours thinking of a polite way to ask about what her counterpart here did without hurting their feelings when she could just ask. "Well, here goes nothing."
"Please, tell me what happened and don't leave a single detail out."

AAAAANNNND cut, wow this chapter was easy to write. To repair the damage of alternate Jasper will not be as easy as our Jasper thought. The next chapter will be mainly about Jasper knowing what happened between her counterpart here and alternate Amethyst and figuring out a way to fix the purple gem's, broken heart. To those who favor and follow this story I am super grateful.

Nova Quartz is out.
