Pearl heard muffled talking in the bathroom.
Confused, she knocked on the door. "Amethyst? Peridot? Are you in there?"
The talking stopped. Then Peridot opened the door, looked out in the hallway, then grabbed Pearl and pulled her in.
"HEY!" Pearl yelled.
"Listen. Amethyst told me about your powers and I MAY know something about where they came from." She whispered.
"AMETHYST!" Pearl yelled, cheeks flushing angrily.
"Shut. UP." Peridot whispered through clenched teeth.
"I WANT YOU TO MAKE ME!"
Peridot hissed and gave her the finger.
Pearl gasped and looked away. Amethyst snorted.
"So anyway, there are four known people on this planet with similar powers. You two are two of those known four. I am ALSO one of them." Peridot bragged.
Pearl crossed her arms. "How do we know you're not lying?"
"You'll know when I'm lying. Trust me… I am a terrible liar." Peridot said. "SOOO anyway, these people are here for a reason. It does do harm to their brains, yes, but they are the ones keeping the world from ending at its most distracted point."
"'Most Distracted Point'? You're speaking in riddles, I don't have time for this." Pearl muttered.
"Pearl, she's trying to inform us about the-"
"WELL SHE'S DOING A PRETTY LOUSY JOB OF BEING AN INFORMANT!" yelled Pearl, stomping out of the bathroom.
"BUT YOU NEED ME! I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT KNOWS ABOUT THE-" But Peridot was cut off by the slamming shut of the bathroom door.
"Don't worry about her." Amethyst said. "So anyway?"
"So I am constantly possessed. There really isn't a REAL me. I have never been myself for this long."
"So you haven't been possessed since you got here?"
"Affirmative. The demon findings on this side of Earth are low." The blonde explained happily, though her serious expression still remained on her face.
"So you aren't possessed when you have your temper tantrums."
"That's-really the only side of me people have seen." She whispered sadly, looking at her feet.
"So they haven't seen the adorably awkward, cute, funny nerdy Peridot I have been seeing for the past two weeks?" Amethyst said, a flirty grin passing over her face.
"Wh-what?" her sister said, blushing slightly.
"Yeah, Peri, You're adorable and awkward and nerdy—anyone ever said that about you?"
"Well…" Peridot said, biting her lip.
"Who?"
"M-my first girlfriend. I mean, she wasn't even really a girl…"
"Do you miss her?"
Peridot turned away, and Amethyst noticed a small tear in her sister's eye. "It's-hard."
Peridot noticed Amethyst watching as the tear slipped down her face, and she quickly brushed it away. "B-but it's fine…I have something different now…"
Amethyst raised her eyebrows. "And what's that?"
Peridot blushed. "You know…you…guys."
And for the first time since Amethyst had met Peridot, a smile stretched across her face.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
