Thanks ! I'm glad you find it very interesting lol

Oh, in this story, Lapis and Jasper were separated and they hadn't caught Peridot yet. So the Cluster wasn't bubbled yet.

Jasper waited outside of the small apartment building. Apparently, she made the realtor feel nervous because of her size and her resting bitch face as Reese called it. The lady had told Reese she had gotten lucky because there were only five apartments left and a lot of college kids liked being by the beach. The lady walked out and gave Jasper a scared look before she hurried for the stairs.

"You ok?" Reese asked seeing the look on her face.

"I am fine. I still don't understand why that human was here for?"

"She had to be. It's part of her job. I put you on the lease just in case you wanted a place to stay."

Jasper looked lost.

"It means this is your home too along with your ocean floor."

"Oh."

That's… really nice.

"Are you ok with that?" the human girl asked.

"Sure. Why are you being nice?"

Reese looked like she didn't understand the question.

"How are you sure I'm not here to destroy your planet?"

Reese snorted and started laughing.

"Ok look. You are the very serious type with a soft side. If you were really after me or this planet in general, not saying that you weren't before but you would have started asking me strange unusual question. Instead, I have peaked your interest with just common things that have nothing to do with destroying this planet. As an educated guess, you haven't even attempted to go anywhere else besides, the cliff, shore and ocean."

Jasper turned red and pouted looking away.

"Do… do you still want to destroy the planet?" Reese asked softly.

"No."

Reese rubbed her arm shyly.

"If you want… I can make you some cake?"

"What is cake?" Jasper asked.

Reese grinned, "I really having you around."

Amethyst sat in the tree as a purple bird watching as the unusual duo walked into the apartment building. Amethyst became anxious knowing that the girl was going to make cake and she couldn't have any. Maybe Pearl could make some cake later? She waited another hour and they came back out again.

They were smiling and laughing.

I wonder what they are going to do now?

She watched as the two walked until they reached the shore. They just sat in the sand really, really close to each other. Amethyst thought it was really weird that Jasper would suddenly be ok with humans and the planet Earth. They didn't make any move for a long while. Amethyst couldn't hear much of anything but some laughing and some loud talking.

She was getting bored. Amethyst actually started to fall asleep.

Amethyst jerked awake when she felt the Earth tremor. Jasper had jumped up picking the human up in her arms like a baby. Panic spread across her face like something horrible had happened. The human girl grabbed her face and talked her down until she was calm. Amethyst decided to fly back home. It was odd… they never had earthquakes before from what she could remember.

Reese and Jasper were sitting on her living room floor. Jasper was finishing off the rest of the cake but she started to look sick.

"Are you ok?"

"I don't know… I never ate anything before…"

"Do… do you have a digestive tract?" Reese asked.

"No?" Jasper answered unsure.

"Can you do anything special… you know like shapeshift parts?"

"I can shapeshift."

Reese pulled out a phone and started tapping on it.

"Ok look here," she said, "Living things have a lot of systems that run in our body. One is the digestive tract. When we eat it, passes down the throat into the stomach. We digest it and it passes through our intestines and out of our body. We have what many people call a butt hole or anus."

Jasper looked absolutely horrified.

"Well… do you wanna try making one? I can show you how to use the restroom…"

They became quiet.

"This is stupid…" Jasper said.

"You're the one who likes cake. Can you take your clothes off?"

Jasper stared at her. Reese's face was red now.

"I can phase them off."

Without warning Jasper did leaving her naked in front of Reese.

"Um… um… come with me…"

They walked to the bathroom.

"Sit there and make your digestive tract. You'll know when you have to go. When you're done, you can wipe using this…"

Reese started to leave but Jasper grabbed her arm, "Wait! What if I need you?!" she asked looking a little scared.

"I'll shut the door and I'll sit outside. If you need me just say help ok?"

Jasper nodded unsurely and Reese closed the door.

Oh my god… The things I'm doing now.

Reese sat outside the door for thirty minutes. She was starting to nod off when the bathroom door opened up. Jasper walked out with a piece of toilet paper on her foot. She just stared at the orange amazon in confusion but she looked down at her and smiled.

"I did it. That… was interesting but I still love the cake and will continue to eat it," Jasper said looking proud like she solved world hunger.

Reese busted up laughing because of the proud look on her alien companion's face.

"What's so damn funny?"

"I haven't laughed a lot in a long time. Thank you."

Jasper stared at her funny.

"So… are you going to change back or pick out new things to wear?"

"New?"

"Well, we can look at fashion things online or you can go back to your normal stuff and we can check out the stores tomorrow."

"Ok. I'm going to go back to the ocean now."

Jasper phased her clothes back on.

"You don't wanna spend the night here?" Reese asked looking hopeful.

"Well…"

"I promise you it's ok. I'll show you the bed."

Jasper sat in the middle of the king-sized bed. It was nice and soft. It felt like she was sitting on clouds or something similar to that. Reese explained that some of the stuff she had at the moment was all what her father allowed her to take. Jasper laid down and pulled the large white comforter over her body.

"I take it you like the bed…" the human girl said with a small smile on her face.

"Even though your body functions are gross… I enjoy this like the cake."

Reese giggled and climbed in beside of her.

"You really like the color white?" Jasper asked.

"I never cared much for the color. I guess I just saw the world as black and white."

Jasper stared, "You cannot see color?"

"It's a metaphor."

"Oh."

"What made you see the world as black and white metaphor?"

Reese grinned, "My life was always boring. Until you came into it."

Jasper scratched her head, "Is that good?"

"Well, have you ever thought bad of things until someone showed you otherwise?"

Lapis. Fusion.

Jasper nodded.

"It's the same thing but in a good, nice way."

"Oh, ok."

"Well, are you tired?"

Jasper made a face like she had to think about it.

"I am tired. Human things are exhausting."

Reese patted the pillow beside of her, "Go ahead and sleep then. I'm tired too. The furniture truck should be here around ten in the morning."

Jasper frowned.

"They have more things to fill the empty space in here."

"Why was the lady staring at me?" Jasper asked, "I said nothing to her."

Reese's face heated up, "Why does that bother you?" she asked with an embarrassed look.

"I don't know. Why is your face turning colors?"

"Well… she thought… I… we… We were dating. She thought maybe you didn't want me talking to other females."

Jasper stared at her, "Dating?"

"Um, it's a relationship that you start with someone you like. That you care about and can't be without."

Jasper tapped her chin.

"It must be like the fusion."

"Huh?"

"There was this fusion… I think Garnet? That they stayed together all the time… then I fused with Lapis but I don't think it was the same."

"Well, since I don't know what happened with you and Lapis. Or with Garnet, it's hard to say. There is a good way of caring and a bad way though. From what I heard."

Jasper said nothing.

"Well, let's sleep. We have a lot to do tomorrow."

Jasper closed her eyes slightly and watched as Reese fell asleep first. She had a light snore but it wasn't disturbing in any way. Jasper watched her laying there peacefully. Maybe because she never watched anyone else do it, but it was quite interesting. Her breathing was shallow but not in a bad way.

Jasper wished she could have some peace like that.

But didn't she have that with her now? Jasper closed her eyes with a smile.

Jasper woke up smelling something odd. It smelled kind of good. Almost like cake? She jumped up and opened the bedroom door then walked down the hall. Reese was wearing a long white shirt, sitting on a barstool and drinking from a large, pink steel cup. Jasper looked around seeing that there were things in the apartment now.

"What happened?" the orange soldier asked.

"It's after twelve. I didn't get up until eleven but they had everything on the balcony outside so I brought everything in. I just finished ten minutes ago."

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Jasper asked looking offended.

"You looked like you were really enjoying the bed so I left you alone. I might be small and thin but I am a lot stronger than you think."

So was Lapis…

"Give me an hour and we can go out. If that's ok?" Reese asked with a tired smile.

"Ok. I smell cake?"

Reese was in a middle of sipping her coffee and she started choking on it. She was choking and laughing.

"Are you ok?!" Jasper asked alarmed.

"I'm fine! No, no… no cake. This is hazelnut coffee. You're supposed to put it on ice but I prefer it hot. Wanna taste it?" Reese asked holding out the cup.

Jasper took the metal cup and smelled the liquid. It did smell like cake or if they didn't have cake like that, they should. She took a sip and was surprised it was little hot but it was good.

"This is also delicious!" Jasper said looking surprised.

"You might wanna go to the bathroom."

Jasper nodded and hurried up.

She returned to the living room looking around. Reese had turned on the big black rectangle. Jasper sat in front of it, amazed she was seeing so many humans at once. Most were talking. Some crying or yelling. Some of it was short videos. Reese grinned as she went back to the bathroom and used the shower.

Jasper ripped her eyes away from the TV when Reese walked into the living room. She had on light blue eyeshadow and a blue tube top to match it. She had on jean capris and wore white flip flops. Jasper couldn't but stare at her; she knew humans changed a lot but she looked nice in her new clothes. Jasper noticed Reese's cheek were turning pink.

"Is something wrong?" she asked, "Do I look weird?"

Jasper shook her head silently.

"Well are you ready to go?" the human girl asked and Jasper nodded.

Reese locked up the apartment and they headed into the busiest part of Beach City. Jasper's eyes darted everywhere, looking at the places and looking at the people. At first, a lot of them looked the same, but now she could see they all looked different. Jasper felt a little envy because gems looked almost all the same except their gem placements.

"Let's go in here first," Reese said pointing at the beach shop.

Jasper shrugged and they walked in.

Poor Jasper almost hit her head on the ceiling but she paid no mind unlike the man the behind the register. He just stared at her in amazement since she was so big. Jasper followed Reese to the men's clothes. Jasper watched as she picked a pair of light blue jean shorts that looked like they were ripped at the bottom. Then she grabbed a yellow tank top that had an orange sun on the front.

"I'm sorry I have to come to this section but women usually aren't that big… No offense."

"I was made to be big and I wasn't made for Earth life so it's understandable."

Reese smiled.

"Go in there and try them on."

"Ok."

Amethyst stared through the window as a seagull this time. She had no idea how to feel about Jasper trying on human clothes. Was it all an act or was she really friends with the girl after all. The girl turned around and Amethyst swore she looked directly at her but she turned back around. She felt relieved that she looked away.

Amethyst had no idea the green-eyed girl was so smart.

Jasper came out of the fitting room wearing the clothes the girl had picked out. Amethyst had to admit she looked really good. A small smile came across her beak making her look weird but this is what everyone at the beach house wanted for her. They just wanted Jasper to be ok with living here.

They still hadn't found Peridot but they were getting closer. They just needed to look through the whole kindergarten for her.

The girl picked out some more clothes for Jasper to wear and Jasper didn't look like she was even slightly bothered by the task. The human girl paid for everything and they walked out.

"That was more exciting than I thought. When do I wear these things that you paid for with paper?"

Reese gave her a sheepish grin, "I wish you wouldn't call it paper. Makes me feel stupid that I'm even human."

Jasper started laughing and slapped her back making her fall forward into the sand on her knees.

"I'm sorry!" Jasper yelled and Reese forced a grin.

"It's ok… You're really strong it turns out. I'm not surprised."

Jasper picked her up and started to carry her in one arm while she held the bags in the other.

"Aren't I heavy?" Reese asked.

"No."

Reese laid her head back and relaxed.

"Do… do you think it's weird I like being around you?" Jasper whispered.

The green-eyed girl looked up at her, "I find it weird you even like me when no one else does."

Jasper smiled, "I like being around you."

Reese's heart thumped hard making her blush.

"I have never had someone tell me that before… You really do?"

Jasper nodded with her face turning red.

"That makes me feel good."

It made Jasper feel good too.
