Amethyst was adjusting to Peridot's company.

Pearl…not so much. She kept warning her sister of a 'red soul' in the newcomer.

Peridot stood back and nodded at her new room. One corner was themed in light blue, one in purple, and the one she had just installed with the help of her new parents was themed in some odd lime green that matched the color of rich green peridots.

"Perfect." She remarked.

"I'm glad YOU think so." The pale girl groaned from her corner of the room. "I don't understand why you can't just share a room with Garnet. She has a HUGE room."

"Oh, but Pearl, Garnet is GROWING UP and she needs PRIVACY." Said Amethyst, doing a sappy mother's voice.

Peridot raised her eyebrows. "What's so funny about that?"

Then Amethyst started laughing. "Oh, Peri-" she paused and snorted. "You don't know 'bout the B and B?"

Peridot's nose wrinkled in confusion. "The…B and B…?"

"Amethyst snickered. "You know, sex?"

"AMETHYST!" yelled Pearl, jabbing her sister in the side, though she couldn't help giggling a little.

"Um…what's that…?"

"When a guy loves a girl very much…oh, never mind, you'll learn plenty about it next week in health class." Amethyst said, her laughter dying down.

Peridot shook her head. "I-I don't understand."

"WOW. A TEENAGER that doesn't know about sex? That's just sad." Amethyst sighed.

"Why is that so funny?"

Amethyst started laughing again. But this time, she didn't respond.

Peridot turned to Pearl. Pearl shrugged.

"So, Peridot. How do you feel about the first day of school?" Pearl asked, when Amethyst started fulfilling her need to laugh outside of the attic.

"Mmm…not that worried about it."

"Why not?"

"Well, despite the excessive amount of demon-possessed teachers…" then Peridot clapped a hand over her mouth, realizing what she had just said.

"What?" asked Pearl. Then she shook off the statement when Amethyst came back into the room. "I'm not worried either. This year will probably be fun."

Citrine flew up behind Amethyst. "So Ame? Are you scared?" she asked as Pearl walked away.

"No, I'm not THAT scared. Now pipe down…I am trying to…"

She felt Citrine jab her. She looked up, now taking notice to Peridot's lovely emerald eyes full of confusion. Wait, what?

"Ah ha! I caught you in the act again!" she yelled, her hands on her hips, confusion now gone.

"In the act of…?" she asked nervously.

"Oh, come on, I know you know what I'm talking about, you CLOD!" Peridot said, leaning down over Amethyst.

"Whoa, Peri, calm down! Okay…I do know what you're talking about. But we need to talk about it in private." She whispered, taking her new sister's hand and leading her down the ladder.

"This BETTER be good, you cloddy-" Peridot began to say as her sister pulled her into the bathroom and shut the door.

"Okay…I'm-" then the other girl paused. "Look, don't think I'm a freak for this, okay?"

The blonde nodded.

She sighed and continued. "I can see things that no one else can. I can see spirits, poltergeists, ghosts…heck there's one on your shoulder right now, Citrine."

As Amethyst explained, Peridot's eyes widened in interest and…was that admiration? Then when she finished, Peridot raised her hands and sighed. "I need to say something too."
