Hey guys! Glad you're all loving the story :) And yeah. Soon there will be cute Pearl and Garnet moments. And who knows?! Maybe Lapis and Peridot moments! Who knows..Who knows.
So enjoy this chapter. And i am sorry that it is not too detailed. I just had a bit trouble with this one.
P.s I'm sorry if some words are missing. If there are then tell me so i can fix it.
Garnet sighed. She backed away from the door and began to gaze into the ocean. She just didn't know what to think. 'Pearl loves me? For how long?'
"You know. That was pretty rude."
Garnet turned around and looked up at the roof. Sitting up there was Amethyst
"She asked you a question." Amethyst jumped down from the roof. And began to walk towards her. "You answer with a yes or no. Not a 'oh i might.' "
Garnet frowned and looked away. "You heard all of that?"
"She loves you. " Amethyst said, ignoring her question. "And you just left her all alone and Heart broken Garnet."
"I-"
"You know it's sad." Amethyst walked toward the fence and sat on top. She gazed into the ocean before looking back at Garnet. "Pearl was being so..so clear...Like almost everyone knew that she liked you. It was so clear Garnet. She even gave you hints. But no..You were too blind to see that."
"I..I know." Garnet walked towards her and stood next to her. "I-"
"Fix it. "Amethyst turned around and jumped. She opened the door and looked back with worry eyes. "Fix it before it's too late."
-Morning came-
Everybody were awake and were in their rooms. Expect for Steven and Pearl. Who were in the kitchen. Steven sat in the chair at the table, while Pearl was trying to find the things she needed to cook Steven some food.
"Hey Steven?" Pearl turned around to face him, She held a cooking book in her hands. "Two eggs. Right? And you put it in the pan with the heat of the oven up?"
"Yeahhh..." Steven's head was on the table.
"With salt?" Pearl cracked the eggs and poured them in the pan.
"Yeahh.."
"Steven.." Pearl turned around while she added salt. She noticed that Steven wasn't being the himself this morning."You alright, Sweet-heart?"
"Yes! uh..no!..I-I mean.." Steven frowned. He began to play with his fork. "I'm sorry if..if i messed things up between you and Garnet."
"Steven. You..You didn't mess anything up." Pearl said softly. She began to mix the eggs. "It..It just wasn't meant to be."
Garnet slowly began to walk in the kitchen but froze by Steven's out burst.
"Not meant to be?" Steven growled with tears in his eyes. "Not meant to be?"
He stood up in his chair.
"S-Steven..Please..Sit down." Pearl said softly.
"N-No!" Steven cried out. He pointed to himself. "It's my fault that you two aren't together! I forced you to tell her! I-"
"No, you didn't Steven."
"Yes! I did!" He cried. "I..I forced you! Pearl! I-I'm so sorry! I thought that she will love you back!"
"Steven.." Pearl walked towards him and gave him a hug. "It's ..It just wasn't meant to be."
"But..Pearl.." Steven whispered softly. "You love her.."
Pearl winced a bit. "Y-Yes i do love her Steven."
Pearl pulled away and grabbed onto his shoulders. She stared into his eyes. " but sometimes You gotta let them go."
"So..If you really love them...You..You let them go?"
"Yes.."
"But..But.."
"Shh.." Pearl smiled softly as she held a finger to his lips. "I'll be alright. I promise."
"Promise?"
"Yes."
"Okay. " Steven said.
"Hey, cheer up." Pearl pulled away and looked at the eggs that were cooking. She went back and began to move the eggs. "Your eggs are almost ready."
Pearl grabbed a plate and placed the cooked eggs on it. She handed it to Steven.
"Yay!." Steven began to eat. "Thanks mom!"
Pearl chuckled. "Want some juice?"
Steven nodded his head happily since his mouth was full.
Opening the fridge. Pearl grabbed the juice only it was purple. She gazed at it confusingly. 'Purple?' Then a face appeared on it.
"Gahh!" Pearl jumped the juice in fear. She blushed as she realized at who it was. "Amethyst ! What are you doing in the fridge!"
"Oh you know." Amethyst jumped on the table and began to eat Steven's food. "Just being little old me."
"Well. Thanks to you. I have to clean this mess up." Pearl grabbed a towel. She began to clean up the juice that she dropped.
"Your'e welcome!" Amethyst sung out. She began to eat more eggs. "Mmm! Your're such a good cook Pearl! You should cook more!"
"Only more Steven." Pearl said as she wiped the miss. She gazed up at her. "You don't need food. But Steven does. You can cook for yourself"
"But...But I'm so lazy!"
"Amethyst?"
"Yes?"
"Get off the table."
Steven began to laugh as Amethyst stuck her tongue out in a playful way towards Pearl. Even Pearl laughed. It just seemed like things were going back to normal. Well almost normal.
Garnet who was standing near the warp pad finally walked in.
"Morning all." Garnet said as she walked in. She was mostly looking towards Pearl. "Morning Pearl."
"M-Morning Garnet." Pearl lowered her gaze and began to clean faster.
Steven frowned. He stood up and waved his arms around. "See? This is exactly what i mean!"
"What do you mean Steven?" Garnet asked turning towards him.
"You know exactly what i mean Garnet!" Steven pointed towards her. "Pearl loves you! And..And you rejected her feelings! I don't want you guys to avoid each other I-"
"I didn't reject her feelings." Garnet said calmly. She walked slowly towards Pearl. "I simply just said that i was confused...Speechless.."
She was getting close to Pearl. She wanted to know more.
"G-Garnet..." Pearl whispered softly. Her back was leaned up against the fridge. She looked away. "Y-Your'e in my bubble..."
Garnet stopped. She frowned and stepped back. "Oh.."
It was quite. Amethyst looked toward Steven with worry eyes. Steven looked at her with worry eyes as well.
"Guys!" Greg suddenly came in through the door. Panting. "There's..There's"
"Dad!" Steven ran toward him and tried to help him up. "Calm down!"
"Oh.." Greg had his hands on his knees."I shouldn't have ran.."
"Greg." Garnet handed him a glass of water. "Calm down. Tell us what happened."
"Thanks Garnet." Greg took the glass of water. He quickly drank it fast. He took a deep breath. "Okay..Okay. So...So like there's a giant robot! It's heading toward the dessert!"
"WHAT!" Amethyst cried out. She moaned as she landed on her back on the table. "Another one?! Gahh! When are they going to stop?"
"Amethyst! " Pearl growled. "Didn't I tell you to get off the table?"
"Opps." Amethyst chuckled. She jumped off the table. "I guess I forgot."
"Enough. Both of you." Garnet said. "We need to stop it."
"Okay!" Steven began to walk towards the warp pad. "Let's take the warp pad!"
"No Steven wait." Garnet said. She held a hand to her chin. "Using the Warp pad. We won't catch up to it. We need something..fast..."
They all gazed at Greg.
"Uh.." Greg chuckled nervously. "Why are you all looking at me like that?"
-Several minutes later-
"Guys! Check it out!" Greg pulled a white sheet that was on his van. They all gazed at it. On top was a large grey cannon with two old seats behind it.
"Uh..Dad?" Steven couldn't stop staring at the cannon. "What's with the cannon...and seats?"
"Oh, that's just my new upgrade." Greg laughed. He turned around. "Steven. Since your'e a crystal gem. I gotta help you. Since well..Since i'm your father. So this upgrade will help you! It shoots glue! It'll slow down the robots!
"This.." Pearl walked closer to it. "This might work Greg!"
"Well Duh!" Amethyst laughed. "It's Greg!"
"Yes!" Greg grinned. "Okay. Pearl you drive. Me and Steven will seat on top of the cannon seats and will shoot the robot. Okay? THEN LET'S DO THIS!"
"Yeah!" Steven jumped towards the seat. "We're gonna be the awesome Bot stoppers!"
"You got that right, Steven!" Amethyst laughed out.
Pearl took the wheel. She started the van and drove off.
"I see it!" Steven called out.
And there it was. It was a large as the one that went into the kindergarten And it was moving fast.
Garnet sat in the seat next to Pearl who was driving. Amethyst sat in the back seat with all Greg's junk. Garnet couldn't help but stare at Pearl. She noticed that Pearl was really sorta..Stressed out. Her hair was really sorta messy. This wasn't the Pearl she knew. Garnet sighed. She had enough of this silence.
"Pearl.?"
"Y-Yes?" Pearl's voice was so soft and shaky.
"Tell me."
"T-Tell you what?" Pearl eyes looked towards Garnet then back toward the road.
"Tell me why you told me that last night."
Pearl's eyes widen. She gripped the wheel harder. "Garnet..Please..That's not important."
"It is important!" Garnet growled. "Tell me why."
"Garnet." Amethyst began. "I don't think-"
"You! Stay out of this!" Garnet turned around and growled toward her. Amethyst covered her ears in back around, Garnet slowly placed her hand on top of Pearl's.
"Tell me Pearl.." Garnet said softly. "Tell me, please. Tell me why you love me."
"I-I...I-I" Pearl's eyes trailed between Garnet and the road. Her hands tighten harder and Garnet felt it.
Garnet pulled her hand away. "Stop the car."
"W-What?"
"You heard me. " Garnet repeated. "Stop the car."
"No.." Pearl said softly. "I..Please.. Garnet. We need to take care of the robot right now."
"I don't care about the robot. " Garnet slowly placed her hand on Pearl's shoulder and tried to look her in the eyes. "I care about you.."
Pearl's eyes were wide for moment. "N..No you don't."
"Yes. I do."
"Then why did you reject my feelings?" Pearl finally yelled out. Her hands were shaky on the wheel.t. "I..I-I told you..and..and y-you."
Pearl lowered her gaze and soften her grip. Garnet froze.
"Pearl. I-"
"Please.." Pearl looked up at the road with watery eyes. "Just...Just drop it.."
Amethyst moved back into the junk. She hugged herself. Things weren't normal. They were getting worse. Really worse.
