Peridot looked down at lapis who had fallen asleep. Her shallow breaths silent. Peridot smiled, she knew why too, she was in love with lapis. She didn't know why she had suddenly fallen for the girl, but that was the past and now is the present.
The tent they were in made a greenish glow in the small room. Sense the hammocks were broke lapis had fallen asleep on peridots lap. Lapis stirred in her sleep suddenly. Peridot glanced back down at the gem. What was wrong was she having a nightmare? Peridot thought, but shrugged it off. Lapis stirred again, and this time she made a sound. Almost like a sentence. This made peridot more worried. She gently scooped lapis up and held her. "Lapis..." She said trying to wake the girl up. "Lapis? It's me, wake up your having a nightmare..." She said to the blue gem. Lapis's eyes blinked and then shot open. She stood up fast and looked around the room panicked. What's going on with her? Peridot thought standing there dumb founded.
Lapis suddenly started to tear up. Peridot winced, it hurt her to see lapis like this. "Lapis calm down, you had a nightmare... Your safe now. There's nothing here that can hurt you." Peridot reassured the gem hugging her softly. "It was so real..." Lapis said wiping her face. "Do you want to talk about it?" Peridot asked gently.
"It was jasper, she came back, and...and." She started to cry again. "What happened lapis?" Peridot asked. "She, s-she killed you. Smashed your gem into shards." Peridots eyes widened with shock and horror. "B-but when I tried to fight she killed me too..." Lapis said putting her hands in her face. Peridot put her arm around lapis. "It ok lapis... Jasper won't come back for a while and when she does she won't attack us-" "how do you know?" Lapis cut peridot off. Peridot bit back a remark. "I-I don't." She confessed.
Lapis looked up to peridot. "We need to come up with something to do for when she does." Lapis said seriously. "Hm." Peridot thought. We can't kill her, nor just leave her here.
The discussion went on for about an hour till they finally came to an agreement. Peridot formed a bubble. (Much like the one that garnet uses to bubble corrupted gems after a battle.) lapis placed Jasper's gem inside the bubble and peridot closed it. Lapis took the bubble and placed it near the corner of the tent (inside)
"so... Now we just wait?" Lapis asked in a concerned voice and turned to peridot. Peridot nodded and sighed. "Theirs nothing else we can do..." She said walking outside.
Lapis POV~
Lapis followed the gem outside. Straining her eyes to see in the darkening light. Peridot sat out by the water, looking at the sky. Lapis hesitated and walked out toward the water. She saw peridot more clearly now, she was sitting with one hand over her face and the other on the sand. Lapis winced. What is she upset about? Lapis walked to where peridot was and sat down next to her. "Lapis-" "peridot what's wrong?" Lapis cut peridot off again. Peridot looked back at the sea. "It's just that... All of this, all of this is my fault." She choked back a tear. Lapis put her hand on peridots shoulder. "Hey it's ok..." She reassured. "No, no it's not. It's my fault that your stuck here with me." Peridot said grasping the sand at her hand. "And who said that was a bad thing?" Lapis answered back. Peridot blushed slightly. "Uh... I uh..." Peridot searched for an answer. Lapis chuckled at her reaction. "Oh come here ya big nerd!" Lapis said launching herself at the girl. Peridot landed on her back with lapis ontop of her. Peridots face was practically dark green now. "L-lapis this isn't funny!" Lapis laughed lightly. "Your right," lapis moved her face closer toward peridots. "It's hilarious."
