LAPIS POV:

As I lay on the bag filled with my clothes I closed my eyes and listened to what my roommate was saying.

“hey amethyst I'm back . . . Why took so long is that my new roommate is moving in . . . Wh-what!? No she's not a ‘mommy’ . . . SHE'S NOT ‘SMOKIN HOT’ EITHER!!”

Ouch?..

“ I don't get you Amethyst . . . She has blue hair her black roots are showing a bit she's tan but not really tan like a nice tan . . . She is wearing a black crop top with grey sweatpants that are a little baggy but not at th- . . . I WAS NOT CHECKING HER OUT I WAS JUST ANNUALIZING MY NEW ROOMMATE!!! . . . Whatever.”

I feel like I shouldn't have heard that.. YOU KNOW WHAT I'M JUST GONNA PUT ON MY HEADPHONES AND LISTEN TO MUSIC.

I slowly put on my headphones and find a playlist to listen to, the first song that comes on is ‘blue hair’ by TV Girl. I put my phone on the pile of boxes and decide to open a bag of clothes to fold and organize them.

As I'm folding the first shirt I hear the door swing open. I guess that Amethyst really got to her. As I'm trying to fold the next shirt I hear stomping, I turn up the volume of my headphones. The stomping gets louder and I turn up the volume all the way. At the moment the song playing is ‘ cannibal ’ by tally hall.

“aw I love that song!”

I hear a voice say but I can't figure out who's voice so I ignore it and begin to fold a pear if jeans.

“Laaapiss?..”

The voice says, I look up to see Peridot.

“what?”

I turn down my music to hear what she has to say better.

“i just wanted to see if you needed help...”

I would like help but after what I just heard I don't know if I want help...

“Can you help me fold these clothes.”

Without realizing it I throw a load of clothes at her almost knocking the small girl over. I can't lie it looked funny af.

I watched as she tumbled back but surprisingly, she caught the load..

“good catch”

I say as I snicker, I thought she was gonna fall and eat shit, That would have been more funny.

“heh... Thanks ”

She sheepish smiled as she sat down cris cross and started folding.

After a few minutes of folding I'm almost complete silent I turn up my music more, turns out one of my all time favorites are on ‘  Duvet ’ by bôa. This song always makes me want to sob my eyes out..

As I begin to fold the clothes again I zone out kinda? All I can think about is the music blasting in my ears as I just fold clothes over and over again.

“Lapis?.. lapis. LAPIS!! EARTH TO LAPIS!”

I jump like a cat, what the fuck. Why was she screaming at me. I take out a headphone.

“WHAT!?”

“you're uh... crying?”

I almost immediately bring one of my hands to my face and I feel it, it was definitely wet (hehe...) My face was stained with tears. Oh my god this is embarrassing we just met today and I'm crying over a song A SONG!?!? Man I'm pathetic...

“...sorry”

“why are you apologizing?..”

“because I started to cry.”

“you don't have to apologize for that.”

Peridot said ending her sentence with a small chuckle. Her words hurt that's like the stuff you hear in those cringe ‘ Y/n x deku ’ fanfictions but you never ACTUALLY here this stuff in real life... Well that's what I thought.

Peridot scooted closer to me, I backed up.

“Its okay to cry.”

Okay that hurt that hit home.
As she said that the world's most saddest song went on blasting my ears. ‘ YKWIM? ’ by hot clubs.
I'm.fucked.

I start to sob god I felt pathetic but it felt great to cry, as I was sobbing my eyes out I watch Peridot get up walk over to me and hug me, I was paralyzed.

“its okay."

I rap my arm around her and we stay like that for a while.

It felt nice to have some comfort.
