(A/n: I am NOT writing out music I have already expressed my hatred for music. Also, this probably won't make much sense without watching Mr. Greg)

"Alright, 'm heading out now. If you need anything then you know where to find me." Y/n stated, shuffling out of the barn. Lapis and Peridot were too engrossed in whatever was on TV to respond.

With a leap, they were in the sky. With Steven's help, Y/n had learned how to jump higher and control their speed of descent so that's how they traveled as of late.

Y/n's phone began to ring, when they fished it out they picked it up it was Steven who was calling.

"Yo, what's up?" Y/n asked.

"Y/n! Y/n! You won't believe this!" Steven exclaimed, his excitement evident through the phone.

"Greg won a million dollars?" They joked in response.

"Nope; Ten million!" Steven corrected them.

"..."

Y/n nearly dropped their device, "WHAT??"

"Yeah, Marty had to pay dad for using his song!"

"That's a lot of money, what do you think you'll do with it?" Y/n asked, very much curious.

"Well, I was asking Pearl if she wanted to come to Empire City with us and she asked if you were coming." Steven explained.

Y/n chuckled at the thought of Pearl caring that much about them before responding, "Mm... sure!"

Y/n landed near the house and entered through Steven's window. Steven was carrying his back down near Greg's van and Pearl was on the couch, very deep in thought.

"Hey Peaaarl..." Y/n chimed as they sat down next to her.

"Gah!" Pearl briefly screamed. "Y-y/n, greetings."

"So... you want me to go with you guys to Empire City?" Asked Y/n.

"Very much so." Pearl admitted.

"Let me guess: You don't want to be with Mr. Greg under any circumstances? Even with Steven??"

"No, no, no! You misunderstood, I... just want you and Steven with me if I have to... interact with him." Pearl laughed, pretty much repeating what Y/n stated.

"So... yes?" Y/n frowned, "Because that's what I said."

"No." Pearl started, "There's a clear difference between my wording, and-"

Y/n threw their head back in annoyance. "Why lord, why does she have to be so difficult."

"Y/n! I'm not being difficult," Pearl huffed.

"Steven and Mr. Greg hooked us up with an amazing, more importantly free, trip to Empire City. I really wanna spend time with you, but if you're gonna act like this then I'll go on my own time." Y/n turned their head and looked out of the window, seeing Steven wave at the two and motion for them to hurry.

"..."

"D-Did you say... you want to spend time with me?" Pearl blushed.

"Uh... Mr. Greg just honked the horn, we should probably get going." Y/n got up, walking out of the door. "Don't be difficult."

"Don't be difficult." Pearl repeated, a slight blush plastered on her face.

Throughout the car ride, Y/n tried to make small talk.

"Pearl, Greg, would you rather be gems or humans?" Y/n asked with the intention of starting a fruitful debate. Pearl initially said nothing... until she was nudged and told not to be difficult.
