Clemont and Peridot meet+other stuff
Thanks Annabella Lucy Nox for the ideas ;)
It was another normal day for Clemont and Bonnie in Lumiose City. Well, if having five challengers in a day was normal.
The sibling duo had decided to take a cooking class in Lumiose, but had missed the first week because of challengers. Bonnie was looking at every shop, as if she'd never seen them before.
"Bonnie! You've seen these shops a thousand times, at least!" Clemont said.
"But there's something new every time!" Bonnie countered.
Clemont sighed. His Aipom arm shot out and picked Bonnie up and sprinted to the cooking class.
"Hey big brother, this isn't much faster." Bonnie noted.
"What can I say? I'm not fast!"
Clemont set Bonnie down and opened the door to the building.
Now inside, they looked across the room to see a tall woman with sunglasses and large square hair, in blue jeans, a red shirt, and an apron sporting the words "kiss me and I break your face." Chatting with her was a girl in black tank top and purple leggings with long, purple-ish grey hair.
Clemont looked into the corner to see a girl in a green hoodie and what looked like pajama pants, with diamond shaped golden hair. She was playing around with what looked like a robot, screwing things in and messing with wires. Standing at the large counter facing the students was a tall pale girl with short strawberry-orange hair, in a green sleeveless shirt, and an electric blue skirt with ruffles. She looked like she was preparing ingredients. Also there was Ash and Serena.
Bonnie saw the girl preparing ingredients. She gasped and exclaimed: "She's pretty!"
"Bonnie don-" Clemont was cut off as Bonnie ran over to her.
"What's your name Ms.?" Bonnie asked.
"Pearl." Said Pearl.
She gasped. "Even your name is pretty! Please will you look after my brother?! He needs a girl like you to take care of him!"
Pearl looked awkward. "Ummm, I-I mean-"
The tall woman stepped in front of her. "She's off limits." She said.
Bonnie gasped. "What's your name?"
"Garnet." Said Garnet.
"You're really tall!"
"Thanks."
"Your hair is a square! Can I sit your on your head?"
"Bonnie! That's a rude question!"
Not seeming to care, Garnet picked Bonnie up and put her on top of her hair.
"Umm, if you're sure that's okay..." Clemont trailed off.
Garnet looked down at him and said "It's fine."
It was quiet.
"If we're done with all of this awkwardness," Pearl broke the silence. "Can we get started?"
"Yes. Let's." Said Garnet. Bonnie somersaulted off of Garnet's head and ran back over to Clemont.
"So what are we making?" Clemont asked.
"Blueberry muffins." Said Garnet. "Get out some bowls."
"Okay! THE FUTURE IS NOW THANKS TO SCIENCE! CLEMONTIC GEAR ON!" Clemont yelled.
Bonnie facepalmed.
"Wha?" asked Pearl.
"Go go Aipom arm!" Clemont yelled as the infamous robotic arm shot out of his backpack, attracting the attention of both Pearl and the girl in the corner, who walked over.
"This happens a lot." Serena informed the gems, who had no idea what was going on.
"This is fascinating!" Said the girl in green. "So utterly useless. and yet you use it anyway!"
Clemont looked at her as if she were insane. "It's not useless! Who are you anyway?!"
The girl stood up to her fullest height, (Which was a bit shorter than Bonnie,) and said "I am Peridot!"
"Oh my gosh." Said Bonnie. "You're SO CUTE!"
Garnet smiled. "That's what Steven said."
They finally managed to get to the point where they had the batter ready.
"Okay." Said Garnet. "Now that we're this far, you take the batter and do this."
She then proceeded to pour all the blueberries into the batter and stirred it until the batter turned blue.
"Aren't you supposed to fold the blueberries in?" Asked Clemont.
Garnet looked at him. "I make my food however I want. Who's the teacher here?"
"You." Said Clemont. "But maybe it should be her. She's doing it right." He said, pointing at Pearl.
"THAT'S WHAT I SAID!" Ash yelled. Serena elbowed him. "What, you said it too!" Serena blushed.
"Sorry, but I'd rather not." Said Pearl.
After cooking the muffins, (Two of Amethyst's exploded so it took a bit longer than expected.) they were pretty proud of the results.
Peridot didn't make any. Amethyst's had some wires sticking through the tops. Garnet's stood in the center, bright blue. Ash's, Serena's, Clemont's and Bonnie's, all turned out okay, and Pearl's were the image of perfect.
"AMETHYST." Pearl said, voice rising. "WHAT DID YOU DO THIS TIME?!"
"Well, Peri wasn't helping out, so I made it onto a collaborative piece! Remember the robot she was playing with? Well..." She trailed off.
Pearl sighed exasperatedly. "Amethyst."
"I like it. It's interesting." Said Garnet.
"Bonnie, come on. We need to head to Laverre City to get parts for my next robot!" Said Clemont.
Bonnie's eyes lit up. "How about you guys come?" She said to the gems. "You two know about tech, you are really nice, and you make yummy muffins!"
They all looked to see one of Amethyst's cyborg muffins was missing.
"You might want to do something about that." Said Pearl.
Amethyst smiled. "It's okay guys! I think she got the one with the least amount of wire and metal parts in it! It might have had some scraps from Peridot's hoodie though!"
Garnet ignored Amethyst and Pearl. "We'll come." she said.
"Yay!" Bonnie said.
A/N Oh god this took forever. My friend and I both worked on this chapter.
