Steven's POV
I began to drive off to school when I saw Lapis on the other side of the rode. I smiled and drove over to her.
"Hey Lapis!" I said to her. She didn't even look at me. Something was wrong, I could tell since she didn't even say something back. I parked the car as she stopped.
"Want a ride?" I asked her hoping she would say something or at least look at me. She shook her head.
"What's wrong?" I asked her. I got out of the car and walked to her. She didn't respond.
"What's wrong?" I asked her again in a soothing voice. She finally looked at me. My eyes went wide. She had bruises on her face, more bruises on her arms and legs, she even had a black eye and had more cuts on her face, they seemed fresh so I went to my car to see if I had anything. I found a clean small towel that I was going to use but, I decided to give it to Lapis because she really needed it. I wrapped it around my hand as she stood there looking at me with a boring look on her face. I grabbed my water bottle and began to pour it over the towel, after that I walked over to Lapis. I began to gently wipe my hand over the cuts hoping that will at keep them a little clean for now. I heard her wince at it, I looked her with a worried look.
"Who did this to you?" I asked her as I kept cleaning her cuts. She didn't answer, I stopped cleaning her face and looked at her. I took a guess and asked if it was anyone of her family members. She looked away with sadness in her eyes. I'm guessing that meant yes. I hugged her tightly. I felt her bury her head in my chest. We stayed like that for a couple of minutes. Until we separated and looked at each other. She smiles and looks at me. I smiled back at her and I help her to the car.
We start to drive away, I kept glancing at her. She didn't saying anything on the way to school. Once we got there we got out and I grabbed her hand as we walked to school. I realized what I was doing. It made it look like we were a thing but we weren't at least I haven't confessed to her. I had a crush on her and I was nervous on how to say it to her.
*Time skip: 8 days later*
It was Saturday and me and Lapis wanted to go do something together. We went to the park for a nice stroll and then after an hour of looking we decided to stop and rest. Lapis had fallen asleep next to me and I was wondering if this was the perfect time to go ask her.
"It's been eight days and I still see Lapis coming to school with bruises and cuts." I said to myself while looking around.
"Steven?" I heard someone call out my name I snapped back into reality turn and see Lapis. Who asleep by my side.
"You okay?" I asked her with worry. She nodded her head and I began to sigh.
"There something I've been meaning to tell you" she said as she looked away.
"What is it?" I asked as I was about to get up from my chair.
She sighed and turned around as we came face to face, we were only inches apart.
"I have a crush on you!" she said as she turned away.
I blushed and hugged her.
"Hey, I have a crush on you to Lapis" I said to her, she seemed embarrassed to asked me.
"Really?" She said as she turned to me.
I nodded my head. I placed my hand on her cheek. I felt her place her hand on mine. I blushed and she did too.
I leaned in gave her a kiss on the lips.
Lapis's POV
I tensed up a little bit, then I felt myself relax as I began to kiss him back. After a couple of second we separated and stared at each other. I pressed my forehead against his and could feel breathing. I felt him wrap his arms around me and gave me a hug. Then I felt my head being pressed against his chest.
I sighed as I looked up at him. My eyes began began to droop, I can hear his heart beating. I sighed I felt so relaxed and I've never felt this relaxed in my life. I felt him press his head on mine. I could hear him breathing and we were sitting on a park been in front of a fountain. I began to fall asleep and I'm guessing he fell asleep since he wasn't moving but only breathing. I wish this moment could last forever. I felt my eyes finally fall asleep.
Steven's POV
I soon drifted away from sleep as I noticed Lapis had fallen asleep on my chest.
The sun was starting to set and I had to wake her up and I didn't want to. I sighed and gave her a nudge, she woke up and looked at me with a confused look.
"It's time to go home." I said to her. She sighed, placing her head on my chest.
I sighed. "I know you don't want to go home but you have to." I said as I caressed her back.
I felt her hand grip my shirt and she began to cry. I hugged her tightly and began to whisper to her.
She finally calmed down and let go of my shirt. She got off me and helped me up and kept looking away from me. I grabbed her hand and my thumb ran over her hand gently. We got in the car and drove off to her house. When we got to her house and sighed and got out. I got out of the car and walked with her to the front of her house.
"Can I get a goodbye hug?" I asked her before she unlocked the door.
She sighed and gave each a hug. I placed a kiss on her cheek before she went in.
I saw her go in her house and I can hear her parents screaming at each other.
I sighed and left.
