Rose can't help but smile when she sees how well Pearl and Amethyst have been getting along lately. Sure, they still have their disagreements but Pearl is making an effort, and Amethyst has started kind of following her around, not so afraid of making her mad anymore. It's a change she finds completely wonderful, and hopes it sticks.

"Amethyst!"

Rose sighs. Well... She can dream.

Rose looks down toward the beach and see the tail end of Amethyst shapeshifting back into her normal form as she grins at Pearl standing resolutely just out of the water's reach, somehow completely drenched.

"Ah, come on, P, that's a good look for you!" the smaller Gem cackles.

Pear makes to run forward after the retreating Gem. She probably would have caught her easily too if Amethyst hadn't rolled into a ball and sped away. Pearl huffs in frustration with a stomp of her foot before her shoulders sag and she shakes her head, a soft, barely there smile fighting its way onto her face. She's not really mad. But she won't let Amethyst know that.

Rose laughs as she joins her renegade Pearl on the beach, watching as Amethyst's figure comes to a stop some ways away, turning back to see if Pearl is still after her. "What's the matter, Pearl? Giving up already?" she calls back.

Pearl shares a look with the pink haired Gem before taking off in pursuit once more of the lavender haired Gem. "Never."

Amethyst's grin widens as she turns and starts to run again, running up the hill that holds the temple in place. She's about to the edge, ready to jump when Pearl lunges forward and grabs her around the middle, stopping her. "Got you!"

Amethyst wriggles and writhes before relenting, blowing a strand of hair out of her face. With a smirk Pearl hoists the other Gem up and sets her on her shoulders. Amethyst, still grinning, lays her arms on top of the thin Gem's head before setting her chin on top of them. Pearl starts walking them down the hill, a small smile of her own in place.

"Sorry for shooting water at you, Pearl."

The pale Gem raises a brow though she knows Amethyst can't see it. "No you're not."

Amethyst barks a laugh. "Yeah. You're right."

Something really short and cute because I haven't written for this in a few days. I'll probably write a few things that have taken place during the series as well soon. Just got to figure out which moments I want to dissect.

BTW did you hear the good news? Steven Universe back in June for the beginning of season 3 (Cuz every season from 2 onward is only going to be 26 episodes) and it's been renewed up to season 5. Should be a fun ride.

Reviews would probably make me want to update quicker.

I'm out! Peace.
