I get Jealous too

Summary: My sequel to "Of course I get Jealous". One month after they got together and things are going great between the two! Well they were until Steven starts avoiding Connie.

Chapter eight: No one else, will ever mean half as much to me as you do now.

(No ones pov)

Wednesday came and went without much of a problem. Steven did have a mission but besides a few scratches it was nothing serious.

(Connie's pov)

I sat next to Peedee at lunch. "Come on Connie cheer up. You know Steven has to put his missions first. I'm sure he rather be hanging out with you than looking for some magical junk."

I shrugged, picking at my food. "Connie I'm sure Steven feels awful about canceling y'all's movie night tradition but I'm sure he'll do good on his promise to make up for it."

"Yeah your right." Though I still felt a bit dejected.

(Steven's pov)

I looked over everything. Pretty much everything was set up. I just need to ask Connie, bring the food, music, and crack the glow sticks. Of course I'll call Connie and ask tonight although I'll have to wait until later since if I call after school she'll know I'm not on a mission. The rest I can do tomorrow before I bring her here.

I took out the gold star necklace I plan on giving her tomorrow. I got it back before we started dating and I meant to give it to her before, it just never happen. Though it still looked new. The thin gold chain didn't have any kinks, the small gold star still shine like it, want to be hung in the heavens itself. I close the box and set it down, half hiding it so I could give it to Connie on our date.

Man I hope she loves this.

(Connie's pov)

I stayed up a little later than usual since Steven has been on a mission all day and hasn't texted me since this morning, I couldn't help but be worried.

I watched Under the Knife quietly as my parent slept. I heard my phone vibrate on the night stand. I looked at the caller ID and saw Steven was calling.

"Hey cutie." I answered.

"Hey, your the cute one in this relationship. I didn't expect you to still be up." He said.

"I just want to make sure you got home alright." I crossed my legs and hugged my pillow closer to me.

"That's really sweet of you, but you don't have to." I heard him fiddle with something. Which is weird since Steven only messes with things when he's nervous. It was really kind of adorable that and when he rubs the back of his neck when he's feeling bashful.

"I want to. How was the mission? Did you fine the item?"

"Errrr... Well we'll talk about that later. What are you doing?"

"Watching reruns of Under the Knife. Any reason why you dot want to talk about the mission?"

"It nothing, Really, I just got back though and I really miss you and I want to talk about you, not about some dumb mission. Which episode is on?"

I blushed the sentiment was sweet really, but there was something going on underneath it all I could tell. He was changing the subject to quickly and avoiding talking about the mission. Actually he's been doing that a lot lately.

"The one where the man has a extra kidney and they have to cut it out to give it to the child."

"Oh I remember that one. The Christmas special, right?"

"Yeah." I could hear that whatever he was messing with he had somehow manage to be louder with it. "Are you sure your alright?" I asked.

"Yeah. I just." His voice cracked as he drift off, and I realized then that I must really miss him cause I found that adorable as well. It made me think of puberty Steven. The one that blushed way too much, and was just nearly an inch taller than me.

"Wanted to ask you something." He picked back up."

"Oh alright. Ask away." I was curious now.

"Connie do you want to go on a date with me tomorrow night?"

I froze. Steven and me didn't go on dates we hung out at his place and went on food runs and there never really plan in advance. He's never asked me to on a date. So this is a first. Our first date.

"Ah Connie, you there?" He asked after a moment of silence.

I cleared my throat. "Um yeah I'm here."

"Well can you give me an answer cause I'm getting really worried over here." I couldn't help but smile.

"Um well, what do you have in mind for this date?" The word felt strange in my mouth. A good strange.

"It's a surprise. Are you saying yes?"

I could feel myself getting a bit nervous but I was also grinning so I really didn't know.

"I would love to go on a date with you Steven." I answer sincerely.

That's great! Just be at the temple about...7ish maybe?" He rushed out, though he did sounded uncertain at the end.

"Okay I'll be there a little after 7." I couldn't help but feel excited.

"Perfect, that's great! I love you strawberry, and I can't wait to see you tomorrow." He sounded so excited.

I giggled and blushed. "I love you to biscuit. See you tomorrow. Bye."

"Bye." I hear the dial tone follow through and I flop back on to my bed. I had a date with Steven. The thought caught up to me all at once. I have a date with Steven! That is a surprise date... What do I even wear!? What shoes do I need to wear!? I don't have any experience with this stuff, well unless you count the date with Peedee but that was different and Steven came and crashed it. Holy crap what did I just get myself into?
